Li~ Lucky me.

Yami Li~ Why so lucky?

Li~ Cuz tomorrow is Wednesday, and the day after is Thursday.

Yami Li~ And how does that make you so special?

Li~ My grandparents are letting me stay home tomorrow considering a lot of my other friends are too.

Kat and Taylor~ UGH!!!! I HATE YOU!!! YOU LUCKY (beeeeeeeeeepppppp)!!!!

Li~ Uh... Do to current circumstances, SOMEONE MUST DO THE DISCLAIMER SO I CAN GET ON WITH THE STORY!!

Kaiba~ Fine. Li don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! but she owns blah blah blah... Aw, heck, she'll put it in the preview or something...

Li~ That'll do, I guess... And if you people want to know who's leading in the Kill-Off contest, email me, because I don't want to ruin it for people who don't want me to.

Yami~ What? You'll kill off--

Li~ Yes.

Yami~ ... O.o

Li rolled over as she sadly watched Yami and her other friends depart. As she laid back down on her pillow, she heard her own Yami open up the link to her for the first time in probably days.

/Li?/

\Yes, Yami?\

/I'm warning you. Yami is not yours./

\What...? Yami, what are you talking about? And why does your voice sound like that?\

/Shut it, kid. I said what I meant and I meant what I said./ And with that, she severed the link, leaving her drowning in a pool of bewilderment as she eased back onto her pillow. "Ya... Yami... what does she mean by that...?"

Before her subconscious could answer for her, Christy came back in and set a vase and a gift-wrapped box on her bedside table. "Here. That gift I told you about. Gift*s*, rather... Anyways, they're from a certain CEO..." She said as she walked back out, smirking.

A faint hint of red clung to Li's cheeks as she opened the card on the vase. "From, Seto. Best Wishes." Li pulled the package onto her bed beside her as she pondered about the roses. 'They were even more beautiful than Yami's...' Her fingers caressed the edges of the neatly-wrapped box as she pondered. Suddenly, she found herself opening the baby blue wrap and unfolding the flaps of the box, eager to see what the said-heartless CEO had to give her. She gasped as she tore through the tissue paper around the actual gift.

"Decks... ten entire... Decks!" Li could barely sit still as she picked up a note hidden in the side of the box.

"Li,
Pegasus owed me a favor, considering he'd kidnapped my brother and wanted to make up for it. These decks are yours, as long as you try your best to finally pound Yami for me. I hope you like them, because I knew you liked the Dark-type monsters, and especially the Spellcasters. Anyways, enjoy, and whoop Yami's @$$ soon. Ciao."

The teenage-girl's eyes widened as she read and reread the note. She dropped it to the side, ready to flip through her new cards, when she noticed a "P.S." on the back.

"P.S.
Be careful. Yami's up to something."

Li shrugged it off. After all, she trusted Yami. If he was up to something, he would trust her with it and let her know if it was too serious. After she set the doubting thoughts up on a high shelf in her mind where she couldn't be bothered with them, she finally got her fingers on what she had been itching to look through.

It was a long time after that, though, when she got to the bottom of the last deck. She almost passed out at what she saw.

"It... it... he.. BLUE EYES!!" She squealed, arousing the curiousity of the nurses outside. She did her best to contain the excitement as she read *another* note wrapped around the Blue Eyes.

"Last resort. Short loan. Give it back when you're done. Be careful w/ it. I trust you w/ it, don't forget."

Caught up in her excitement, Li didn't notice anyone walk in and sit down on her bed with her.

"Li," The stranger said, causing Li to almost jump out of her bed. "Do you remember me?"

"..." Li racked her memory for any thought that would lead to the identification of this person. She recognized his accent. Then, she said at last, in almost an inaudible whisper, "Shadi?"

Shadi nodded his head.

"You were the one who gave me the two Millenium Items!" Her memory came back to her in a rush, supplying her with many facts about this stranger. Again, shadi nodded. "When dad went on a buisiness trip, and it was imperitive he took me, and we went to Egypt... Then the marketplace, and I followed... And the room, with the Items..." Shadi nodded repeatedly waiting for the young girl to finish, but lost his patience.

"You know about the Pharaoh's past, correct?" He said. It was Li's turn to nod, and he continued. "And how he was married to *your* yami?"

"Yes... where is this going?"

"A very important place. You see, I... This is hard for me to say, because I understand your feelings, but..." Shadi's face looked painful, as if he absolutely dreaded what he was destined to say. "The Yamis... They... They need---"

"Did I NOT say no more visitors?!" Christy came back in the room, spotting Shadi. She did not like this. (That's an understatement... O.o)

"But, madam, I must--"

"No butts, me!!!" Christy grabbed Shadi by the ear and jerked him out of the room. "NO MEANS NONE!!!" And in that second, Shadi was gone, leaving Li to find out her fate on her own. Which will almost certainly not be good for her.
