trio: O.O Hey Seto *Seto looks at her* do you realize how many PAGES there
are of this so far?
Seto: *looks at computer* 20.
trio: you cheated! *Seto shrugs* oh well...Yes, folks, this is, like the LAST LINE of Page 20 of Try Again! Making this the LONGEST fic I have ever written!
Seto: why, how many pages do you usually go to? Twelve? Don't tell me it's less! *starts laughing at trio's patheticness*
trio: *slightly hurt* yes. Usually it is twelve. Sometimes less.
Seto: o.O oh.
trio: it's okay! I have to forgive you, or else your fangirls will murder me in my sleep. *looks around for fear of rabid Seto fangirls*
Seto: that is one of the first times that those fangirls have been even slightly useful...*realizes he's still taped to the spinney chair, even though Fun Rabbit is gone* um...speaking of fangirls...
trio: only if you promise not to wander off! *Seto nods* fine. *Eraser dust falls to the floor, and there is a rubbery smell in the air, but the tape is gone* could you be a sweetie and say the disclaimer please? *cute look*
Seto: ARGH! ENOUGH WITH THE CUTE LOOK! *trio continues the cute look* *sigh* trio does not own Yu-Gi-Oh or any of its characters. She does own Kevin.
trio: very good! You can look through my cards now. But if you take any, I'll know.
Seto: *begins looking through trio's cards* O_O oooooooh...mirror force...soul release...*looks at starter pack* hey, who's that handsome guy?
trio: that's you, moron! And don't flatter yourself. On with the story! just so ya know, this is Yugi's POV!

"what's so funny, Joey?" I asked. I was so concerned about Yami that I hadn't heard him until he started laughing.
"Just another of his corny jokes," Tristan replied as Joey tried to hit him on the head. The authoress appeared and hit Joey on the head with her Millennium Eraser, then disappeared, leaving a faint rubbery smell.
"That was strange," Joey stated, rubbing his head. "Why'd ya do that?" he shouted to the sky. He got no answer until a note dropped down from a tree saying, "That's what you get for trying to hurt Honda. Luv, the Authoress."
"Sounds like you deserved it, Joey," I said after reading the note.
"Yeah, whatever," Joey responded, still rubbing his head.
We parted as usual in front of the game shop that my grandpa owns. Yami still hadn't said a word. I could feel him pacing in his soul room, trying to think of something. "How was school, Yugi?" Grandpa asked.
"It was fine, Grandpa!" I voiced my usual reply. I went up to my room to finish my homework. Grandpa interrupted the tranquility saying, "What'd you get on your test?"
"A," I responded, attempting to focus on my history homework, but Yami's attitude worried me. He had been like that since Monday, not coming out of his Soul Room, hardly even talking to me. I know he is concerned about me, but I often worry about him too.
_-_-_-_**Yami**_-_-_-_
Something wasn't right. She was just too familiar. Something about her made her seem as though I had met her before, that we had been very close. Closer than close, more than just friends. It was in her eyes today. Yesterday, too, when she and Joey dueled. She seemed so sure that she would win...almost like...
I couldn't remember! Ra! Her eyes were all that was clear to me, and I could barely remember those. Her attitude seemed familiar enough, but there are supposed to be lots of people like that now.
But her eyes....I closed my own, racking my mind for shreds of my past that could possibly tell who she was.
**FLASH**
"You may as well ignore us and go back to robbing tombs or whatever."
"Iras..."
**FLASH**
"I may have seen more than you think."
"Do you think he saw us...?"
**FLASH**
The world dissolved into gray. Monsters popped up onto the field, then left just as quickly. My opponent smiled sweetly.
**FLASH**
My eyes opened. Those visions...I could see no one's face, but the voices were clearer than...well, something really clear. The voices sounded as if I knew them, and yet I couldn't match them to faces.
But the first vision...who in all the Hells was Iras?
The name brought back emotions. Love was the strongest among them, but I found hatred there as well. What could it all mean?
_-_-_-_**Kevin**_-_-_-_
She wouldn't move. Her face was set like she had to remember something or she would die. And if she was interrupted, she was going to sic one of her fire demons on the world, destroying it completely. My Yami, that is.
She refused even to talk to me. I thought she needed some fresh air, but I feared her fire demons. I never wore the necklace on my runs now, thinking that she would come out and beat me for interrupting her memories.
Téa came in. "Are you okay, Kevin?" she asked.
"Hmm? Oh, yeah, I'm just fine. How're you?" Téa looked at me strangely, as I thought she would, but accepted it and walked away.
_-_-_-_**Bakura**_-_-_-_
She seemed familiar enough. Like that thief the Pharaoh loved so long ago...what was her name? Iras, wasn't it? But who was I to tell? We all adored her then, but she only had eyes for one.
But what if...what if her soul was captured within that new girl's necklace, the way the pharaoh and I were trapped in these stupid millennium items? If it was true, I had another chance with her. If not...I would make a fool of myself trying.

trio: well, I've proved once again that my mind works in strange ways.
Seto: I'll say.
trio: *glares at Seto* do the ending, then shut up.
Seto: *eyes trio's Millennium Eraser* Please review! That is, if you want to find out if anyone remembers, or if Kevin will go out with me! *gets a strange look from trio* um...never mind. Just press the button down there and trio will be happy.
trio: Very good, Seto! The next few chapters will be flashbacks, but I might not post them for a while, as my language arts grade is in severe danger.
Seto: why, what do you have?
trio: like I'm gonna tell you! All I'm going to say is that my language arts grade is in severe danger, and ask the readers to review! It's easy! All you have to do is press the pretty purple button!
Seto: *looks at computer* 20.
trio: you cheated! *Seto shrugs* oh well...Yes, folks, this is, like the LAST LINE of Page 20 of Try Again! Making this the LONGEST fic I have ever written!
