Ariela: *sighs* Why is it we never get any reviews?
Amara: *shrugs* No idea. Maybe cause the real plot has been revealed yet?
Amalthia: Anyway, here's Chapter Two.

Earring.
Chapter Two
***********************************************************************************
Mai had just told the others the piece of info Aurora had revealed. They all thought
it a little strange. Yugi and Yami hadn't heard it yet though. They were in the back
helping Grandpa with something.
"So her name was Aurora Kaira? The new girl you heard us talking about?" Tea asked
slowly.
Mai nodded, "Unless she was lying yeah. But she doesn't fit your description. She
had-"
"Hey guys, what's going on?" Yugi asked as he and Yami came back from helping
Grandpa. Both were covered in dust. Yami was holding some kind of glass vase.
Joey answered before any one could stop him, "Mai just said that Aurora Kaira was
the one orderin' the strange flower salt. Also somethin' about her not fittin' the
description..."
Mai sighed before answering, "Yeah, she didn't have the black hair. In fact, she sorta
looked like Yami. Only her eyes had more blue to them, her skin was paler, and the
strands around her face were white-blonde."
Yami dropping the vase broke the silence after this statement. "It can't be. I sealed
her away so she would be safe..." he whispered disbelieving.
Yugi looked at him confused, "Who Yami? Who did you seal away and why?"
"His daughter, Yugi. Yami had a daughter long ago, according to the hieroglyphics in
a tomb." Grandpa answered for him.
"According to them, the pharaoh that sealed away the ancient magic had a single daughter.
She looked like both her father and her mother, who died in childbirth. She had her
father's raven hair and solo strands, but the strands were her mother's white-blonde.
Her skin was darker then her mother's, but lighter then her father's. Her eyes were
the only ones of their kind any one had, has, or ever will see. They had her father's
violet and her mother's blue combined together.
"Many sought her hand, but she felt for none of them. She had designed a test only one
could pass. If the suitor could break the ice shield around her heart, then he was
worthy. That shield came from her father breaking a very important promise to her. She
was, nor ever will be, willing to trust again.
"This very shield led to her being know as the Ice Rose. None ever passed her test.
Then the war came. Her father, Yami, sealed her inside the earring he gave her. It was
made of silver and had the Egyptian Eye inside of it. It was also known as the Unknown
Eighth Millenium Item. Many searched for it, but never suspected to search the tomb of
that mighty pharaoh. For in one of the ancient pictures in the wall, there was a key,
that when opened, would reveal the earring."
Turning towards Yami he asked, "What I would like to know is how she came to this time
if she was never reincarnated."
Yami answered in a whisper, "I left a potion by the earring. If one droplet ever touched
the earring, Aurora would gain back her body from Ancient Egypt. But she's sixteen now.
I sealed her away when she was only fourteen. How did she..."
Grandpa answered thoughtfully, "She knew nothing about our time when she got her body
back. She must have used those other two years to learn, so she would not stick out like
a sore thumb. When she felt that she was ready, she moved here, for what reason I have
no idea. She must not want you to find her, Yami, so she's dying her hair black so you
will not recognize her..."
Joey jumped back in surprise, "So you're sayin' that we have an Ancient Egyptian
Princess, who's also Yami's daughter, floatin' around? This is just too weird! I thought
we had the Items figured out..."
Yugi sighed, "So did I, Joey. So did I..."
** Aurora's Apartment **
"Rose, I don't know what to do. Father's here, as is his reincarnation. This is getting
too difficult for even me to understand. What are we going to do?!?" Aurora asked
confused, facing a snow leopard that was lying on a leather couch.
The leopard yawned. Her bright blue eyes looked almost human, only much wiser. "Come
now Aurora, don't you think it's past time you forgave your father? I mean, it HAS been
centuries since he last saw you. And I'm willing to bet he broke those promises because
the council pressured him into it or he thought it would be better for you..." she
answered in a husky voice. It was very deep for a female's.
Aurora sighed, "I just can't help it. You know how I am when it comes to promises..."
Rose nodded, "Yes. You have always believed that one shouldn't make promises that one
can't keep. But please, reconsider this one time..."
Aurora smiled happily for once, "You know what, I will..."
** Next Day (Saturday) At 7:00 AM**
Walking into the kitchen wearing a white nightgown, Aurora yawned as she made her
morning tea. It had been a long night. A man with brown hair and deep blue eyes had
filled her dreams. He had spoken the same words over and over; "Love is rare. One
should truly appreciate it when one has it..." Plainly, it was confusing her greatly.
Taking a sip of her tea, she pondered how to go about today. First, she knew she had
to call Yugi to ask what time he wanted her to come over for their duel. Then, she had
to figure out how to deal with her father.
"Thinking, as always. Can you not give it a break for once?"
Aurora jumped a little before recognizing the husky voice as Rose's. "Can you take a
break from startling me in the mornings?"
"You know you love it."
"I'd also love to remove the spell that let's you talk..." Aurora spoke teasingly,
knowing that would shut Rose up...
"You wouldn't dare!" she growled, running into the kitchen
"Willing to bet?"
Both were quiet. Rose pondering if her mistress would really take away her voice, and
Aurora questioning if it was too early to call Yugi.
"Rose, how much like Father do you think Yugi is?"
Rose frowned, "Well, first off, considering how the reincarnation usually works, he
will be almost completely opposite of him. Second, why do you want to know, and third,
since when have you started calling Yami 'Father' again?"
Aurora shrugged, "Sounds nice to call him that again, I guess. And I need to call Yugi
to ask what time to go over. But considering Father was always up at the crack of dawn
everyday and happy about, it wouldn't be too smart to call him now..."
Rose nodded before heading towards the living room. She had enough to worry about
without trying to figure out Aurora's mind...
** Later that day at 10:00 AM **
Aurora had changed out of her white nightgown into a pair of black denim flares and
a silver tank top. Both had white roses embroidered along the hems. She was again
wearing her earring and earclip.
She walked over to her white mobile phone in the kitchen. Dialing Yugi' s number, she
waited patiently.
"You've reached the Muto's. This is Yugi, may I help you?" a sleepy voice asked.
Aurora giggled, "Sorry Yugi, did I wake you up?"
Yugi snapped awake, "Oh hey Aurora. No, you didn't. Yami just dragged me out of bed a
few minutes ago though..."
Aurora laughed softly, "You're lucky he doesn't wake you up at six! Anyway, what time
do you want me over?"
"How about at one? That's when everyone else is coming..."
"Alright. Um... Yugi?" Aurora asked hesitantly, "Can I bring my cat with me? She's been
coped up inside since we moved and I'd like to let her out for a little while..."
Yugi's laugh could be heard in his voice, "Go ahead. Living in a city is hard for pets.
I'm sure Grandpa won't mind. What's her name?"
Aurora smiled, "Wisest of the White Roses on her pedigree, but I call her Rose or, if
she's annoying me, White, for short."
Yugi finally let lose his laugh, "Wisest of the White Roses is quite a mouthful. I'm glad
you shortened it. I can't wait to meet her. See you later!"
"Bye..." she chuckled, hanging up the phone. She couldn't wait to see their faces when
they met Rose...
** 1:00 PM That Day **
Putting on her black leather jacket that fell to her knees and was very lose, Aurora
called, "Come on Rose! I have to put on your collar and leash before I can let you out!"
Rose came over, grumbling and growling the entire time. After snapping on Rose's navy
blue collar and leash, Aurora smiled. Today was going to be fun.
** Game Shop A Little Later **
"YOU LET HER BRING HER WHAT!!!!" Yami cried out in surprise. Tea, Tristan, Mai, Seto,
Serenity, and Joey jumped at this sudden sound.
Yugi answered calmly, "Her cat. Wisest of the White Roses is her full name, but Aurora
calls her-"
"Rose! She Aurora's guardian cat from ancient Egypt." Yami said, closing his eyes tiredly,
before snapping his eyes open, "She didn't tell you what kind of cat Rose was, did she?"
"In the name of Isis, I sure didn't. It wouldn't have been half as much fun..." Everyone
turned to see Aurora. She was leaning against the door way, holding on to a...
"A LEOPARD!!!" everyone but Yami and Aurora cried out in alarm.
