A/N: I'm back! Hooray! ^-^ On with the show!
::chapter 5::
Callie's eyes opened as the sun's first rays hit her. She let her long legs swing over the side of the bed.
She climbed over the boys' sleeping bags quietly. Her light electric blue bangs swayed as she grabbed her backpack and started packing.
Blue jeans, extra shirts, clothes, bathroom necessities, a little food, the little money she had, books, mother's diary, photo album...what was this?
The necklace she had received from Yami laid in her hands. She should put this on. She couldn't now. She'd ask one of the others for help to put it on.
Callie changed and came back form the bathroom with new clothes.
Her top was a white shirt with short sleeves. She wore a long dark blue coat with a big collar. It came up to a little under her knees. She wore a dark purple tight miniskirt that about an inch above her knees. On her feet were black boots (like Téa's) that went up to under her knees.
She rummaged in her jacket and took out her deck. No, her mother and father's deck.
"Is that yours?"
"AAA! Don't sneak on me like that!" Callie turned to face Téa.
"Sorry. But is it?" Callie nodded. "Can I see?"
"No. I'm sorry, but I want to be ready for that duel with Yugi. If we ever get to."
Téa waved her hand impatiently. "Of course you will. By the way, you look nice."
Callie blushed. "Really? Thank you!"
"I wanted to ask-do you like Yugi?" Téa twisted her fingers in anticipation.
"Of course I do! He's a nice guy! He is my cousin after all." Callie smiled happily.
Téa sweatdropped. "That's not what I meant. I mean-- *like* him?"
"*No!* He is my cousin! Besides, he feels more like a brother. Do you?"
"Do I what?" Téa was surprised.
"Do you like him? You can tell me. I won't tell anyone. You do, don't you?" Callie smiled at Téa.
Téa made a small noise that sounded like a "yes", but it was hard to tell.
"Awww...You'd make a great couple!" Mai smiled as she came up behind them. Téa's freaked-anime reaction made both Mai and Callie laugh.
"Why-is-everyone-ganging-up-on me!?" Téa put her hand in a fist and shut her eyes angrily.
"Because we're right. You'd make the best couple-along with Mai and Joey, of course." This made *Mai* freak out. "Hey!"
Callie laughed. "Hahaha! Don't get so embarrassed, you two. I'm tellin' the truth."
"Just *wait*! When you fall in love with either Bakura and Tristan, we'll be merciless!" Mai smiled and laughed mockingly. Téa nodded in agreement.
"That isn't guaranteed, though, now is it?" Callie smiled and turned around. At that moment, Bakura came out of the bathroom from changing (at night he wore pajamas, but in the day he wears normal clothes. Now he's wearing his sweater and green shirt and stuff.).
Her eyes met his, and they were level. (Their eyes became "lines"-anime) They both stood there for a moment, and then Callie smiled and got out of his way.
"Sorry!" She smiled in a little-girl-like manner.
"Uh, that's alright," Bakura said quietly. He liked this girl. She was really nice and smart. But he couldn't get close to her. What would that maniac spirit do?
He left to meet the other boys, who'd just got dressed.
"I saw that! I SAW THAT!" Téa grinned evilly and put her hands on her hips.
"So what? I don't care." Callie put her head up in a mocking aloof manner. "Let's go."
***
When they had gotten out of the apartment, Yugi told her about Davvlen. He explained everything like he did to Mai.
"I know that he kills." Callie mumbled.
"He kills? As in murders?" Joey said, looking towards her.
"Mm-hmm. He does it a lot. And he does it himself. When he-he had a grudge on someone-I heard- the man's son-he was- cut up and bloody..." Callie shivered.
Yugi stared at her. Evidently, her life had been horrible ever since her parents' deaths.
"I saw. I saw it. I want to kill that beast. He isn't human." Callie brought up a fist. "I want to help you kill him."
Tristan nodded. "From what you're telling us, I want to also. Desperately." Joey nodded.
"Anyone who does dat to anybody- what you said- he has no right to live. Absolutely no right!" Joey clenched his fists angrily.
"I know. Um, where are we going?" Téa said suddenly.
Callie stared at them. "I thought you knew."
"Well, uh..." Bakura put his hand on the nape of his neck. Callie fell down, anime-style.
"So we have no idea where we're going?!" Mai said. "This is dumb! Oh yeah, I wanna pound the jerk too. But how the he-"
Suddenly three whips came out, grabbing Téa, Mai, and Callie by the legs.
