OOooOooOooOooOooOooOooOooOooOooOooOooOooOooO
The next few days, all Yugi, Jackie, Joey, Tristan, Tea, Kaiba, Uncle, and Bakura did was prepare for their trip. Uncle had to pack all the essentials, plus the ingredients for the Chi spell. The symbol of the immortal who captured the Time Demon was a moonstone. And, of course, uncle packed some tea bags… (o_O0)
Everyone else packed pretty much the same things…clothes, food, etc. But everyone also brought a little something…Joey brought his Game Boy Advance and Duel Monsters Deck, Yugi brought his Deck and a journal, Yami brought a box of paper clips (?), Kaiba brought his aspirin and Blue Eyes', Bakura brought a cigarette lighter…just in case his Yami got out of hand, and Y.Bakura brought his precious collection of various weapons and poisonous snakes.
The trip was being delayed because Uncle had to find a spell to travel through time, and even when he did, it would take at least a week to prepare it.
~Uncle's Antique Shop (UAS)~
"I'm coming with all of you, right Jackie?" Jade asked, looking up at her Uncle.
He looked back at her. Jackie hadn't thought about taking Jade along… he had only thought about the more important aspects.
"I suppose this is one time you can come along, "Jackie said, smiling, "After all, if we leave you here, who will take care of you?"
"Yes!" Jade cheered, nearly knocking over another vase, "This is one trip where I'll have to pull some Jades!"
~Kaiba Mansion~
Meanwhile, the same issue was occurring at the Kaiba's.
"Seto??!!!?? BIG BROTHER!!! WHERE ARE YOOUUU??"" Mokuba screamed at the top on his lungs. It was hard to locate or find anyone at the mansion, unless you screamed REALLY loud. Which Mokuba could do.
"What," Kaiba shouted back from the top of the staircase, "did I tell you about screaming?"
"To use my cell phone instead?" Mokuba asked innocently, with big, kawaii eyes.
"Kaiba stared down at his cute, trouble less brother, and sighed deeply, rubbing his head. He hadn't had any time to communicate with Mokuba lately, because of the trip…"Wait a minute!" Kaiba panicked, "Where'll he stay?"
"Seto?" Mokuba said again. His big brother was acting as if he was in a coma-for the fifth time that day.
"Eh?' Kaiba awoke from his thought.
"Will I be going on the trip with you?"
"Of course! He can come with us…He's old enough-I hope." Kaiba thought happily.
"Yes," he said aloud, still staring into space.
"Yay!" Mokuba punched the air.
"Go pack your things!" Kaiba ordered.
"Hmmmm…" Mokuba thought mischievously, "I'd better be prepared for anything…just in case…"
~Next Day~
The next day, Uncle called a meeting. Unfortunately, Joey didn't arrive on time.
"I wonder where Joey is," Yugi said, confused, "I called him to remind him, and he said he would be here!"
"Well, I'm pretty sure he didn't forget already!" Tristan exclaimed.
"No one can be sure though," Bakura answered, "Remember the time when we were supposed to meet each other at the carnival?"
"Yes, I do," Tea said thoughtfully, "Yugi called him five minutes beforehand, and he forgot!"
"So he probably forgot." Yugi said, relieved, "Then lets call him again!"
~Alleyway~
Joey walked down a deserted alley, kicking a "Pepsi" can.
"Man," he muttered, depressed, "This world can be so.."
Joey accidentally kicked the can into a hole on the side of a wall, but for some strange reason, it was glowing a strange, bright, aqua. He was mesmerized by it, and kept on staring…until the floor dropped under him, making him tumble into a darkness of nothing…
~UAS~
After trying to call Joey four times, Yugi gave up.
"I hope Joey's alright," Yugi said, looking worried but quite adorable. ^^
"Don't worry, he probably got interested in something stupid, like a green spider or something, "Tristan said confidently.
"Well, I sure hope so Tristan," Yugi said, 'I sure hope so…"
~Somewhere deep ^^0~
Joey kept falling….falling…until he hit something hard. The ground.
"Oww!" Joey complained, "What's the big idea?"
Then he saw the same glowing aqua, except this time, it was brighter. He walked up close to it. There seemed to be some kind of hourglass on it…. with an eye.
"Wait a sec!" Joey gasped. This same eye was on Bakura and Yugi's Millennium items! Could it be? Joey reached out, his fingers inches away from the hourglass.
"Yes, it is a Millennium Item," A soft voice said behind him.
"Whaa-?" Joey yelled in surprise, "Who're you?'
There was a young girl behind him, and she smiled… a mysterious, but warm smile. "I am Ameris," she said, "And that hourglass does belong to you. Go on! Take it! You were destined to have it."
Joey breathed as his hands touched the hourglass. It felt good, smooth, and somehow ancient. Joey felt full of life again as he put it over his head.
"What can it do?" he asked curiously.
"This, is one of the most powerful items of all," Ameris smiled, "Along with the Rod, Key, and Compass, that is."
"Compass? Key? There are no such things!"
"Oh, you haven't found out about them yet. Soon you will though… Oh yes. Your hourglass. It is the symbol of time, the key. It can bring you to the past, or future, although not forever. It can also stop time."
"Wow. It really is good! Ermm can I go back now?"
"Of course. But remember to use it well! Good bye… I believe we shall meet again," Ameris said gently, as a soft light surrounded Joey and brought him to the Antique Shop.
~UAS~
"Joey! JOEY!" Yugi said, "Are you alright??"
"Yeah, I'm fine, Yug'," Joey said getting up, "I got an Item!"
"Whattt?" Everyone said in surprise-especially Yugi and Bakura.
"Yeah! I did!" Joey said, excitedly, telling them everything.
"Wow…" Yugi breathed, "That's great! Hey! Now we don't have to wait for uncle to make that spell! That hourglass will just take us!"
"Yup!" Joey said proudly, "Wait, okay? I want to try this thing out…"
Joey stood back and closed his eyes. When they reopened, he found he was in Egypt, with Malik staring stubbornly at him.
"Well?" Malik asked impatiently.
"Gahh! What are you doing here??"
Malik gave an exaggerated sigh. "You guys asked me to with you! What wrong with you anyway??"
"Oh…" Joey nodded, as a light surrounded him and brought him back.
"Man.." Joey exclaimed.
"What? What was it like?" Yugi asked excitedly.
"Well…Malik was there…" Joey remembered.
"What?"
"He said that we asked him to come with us."
"Hmm. Well I guess we'll have to!" Bakura said, grinning.
"Sure thing!" Tristan said.
Yugi picked up the phone. "Let's just hope this goes well…" he sighed, as nine people watched him.
~Malik 'n Isis's Apartment ^^~
"Come on!" Isis said, impatiently, "I have to go to the mall! How long does it take you to change your clothes?"
"A long time," Malik said back sarcastically, fingering his earring…
Isis groaned. "You've been up there for TWENTY minutes!"
"Okay, okay…I'm done…"
"Finally!"
"Is Yami goin'?"
"Nooo, we can't have him trying to-well, you know the things he does."
Malik nodded, as he and Y. Malik separated into two people.
"Sorry Yami," Malik said, "but you have to stay here."
Y Malik started to say something back, but the phone rang, and Isis started yelling again.
"Huh, there's the phone! And I have to go!" Malik shouted to his dark side as Isis dragged him out the door.
So, Y. Malik was left alone, expected to use a modern appliance. He hardly knew how to use scissors yet, how could his Hikari expect him to use something running on electricity?
Sighing deeply, Y. Malik reached for the phone. He had seen Malik use it a few times, it LOOKED pretty easy…but what was that word you had to say?
"Umm…yea?" Y. Malik asked nervously into the phone.
"Hi! Is Malik there?"
It was Yugi! "Uh…this is-"
"Oh, Y. Malik?" Yugi asked, surprised at him for using a phone, "So… is your HIkari there?"
"He's out."
"Ohh… I see. Well, tell him to call me back!"
"Uh-huh." Y Malik began grimacing at how polite he was being.
"'K, bye!"
"Bye," Y. Malik replied stoutly, hanging up the phone. He leaned back into the couch.
"I wonder what Yugi wanted…" Y Malik wondered, "It must have been important, people don't just call Malik for no reason…"
~UAS~
"So, who is this Malik you just called?" Jade asked, sitting down besides Kaiba.
"He's this guy…tried to kill Yugi… you know, the works."
"He tried to KILL Yugi?!?" Jackie asked, with anxiety in his voice.
"Yes…but really he's alright, I guess," Yugi replied truthfully.
"He sounds-cool…" Jade said.
"The first time you see him…well, just don't freak out or anything," Joey said, laughing a bit.
"Why? Is he really ugly or something?"
"No!!!" Tea exclaimed, as everyone stared at her, "Umm I mean, he's isn't that ugly, he's just got hieroglyphics carved all over his back, earrings, and…yeah."
"He does sound cool!" Jade cried happily, jumping a little, "When can we meet him?"
"A few days. If he agrees. Which he obviously will, due to the fact we saw him in the future with us. And he's also got an Item, the Rod."
"Ameris said it was one of the most powerful..." Joey said thoughtfully, "Maybe it'll help us on our… mission. Quest. Yeah."
"What does the Rod do?" Jade asked, interested. She wanted to find out everything.
"Controls people's bodies and minds," Kaiba answered, "Quite useful if you're on the same side of the owner."
"Ohh that's awesome!" Jade squealed, as Jackie looked horrified.
"He wouldn't use it against us, would he?" Jackie asked.
"No, I don't think so…" Yugi replied, "although his Yami… No…well, his Yami is a bit on the...ermm… darker side, but I think…"
"Yes?"
"He wouldn't use it against us."
~Malik an' Isis apartment ^^~
The instant Malik came home, he flopped down into the nearest chair. He was exhausted. Well, his older sister had hauled him around, and on the way back, Isis started dragging him by the ear. Therefore, obviously, he hurt…
"Hey! Malik!!" Y. Malik poked him.
"Oww! Stop that… it's not like I don't hurt all over already," Malik mumbled, rolling over on the couch.
"Yugi called. He wants you to call him back."
"Whaa?" Malik instantly sat up. Yugi had never called him before…well nobody else did either…
"So I guess you should call him," Y. Malik said, enjoying the effect of ordering his Hikari around.
'Fine..Fine…" Malik muttered, picking up the phone…"

So..that's chapter two! Woo! I finally finished. Man. That was the longest chapter I ever wrote. And sorry if I made Malik or Isis or Y. Malik were OOC or anything! You can hardly blame me though…I hardly know anything about him, but he's my favorite character! O_O Gosh. And if it is OOC, tell me what to correct!!! And if it isn't… HALLELUJAH!!!! Don't forget to review!!!!! Alright, bye, I'm going to start on the third chapter now!!! ^_~
