Chapter Eight
In The Blink Of An Eye
Warnings: 1.) The chapter ending is rather violent. 2.) The characters have an almighty sob fest in the end. 3.) This chapter's duel may suck. 4.) Pegasus bashing.
Mojobubbles: Hey! Guess what, got a real funny story to tell. Ok, yesterday, (January 13) I went to Shakespeare Club. Yes, I am in Shakespeare Club, and I don't give a fu** if you think it's nerdy.
All: (blink)
Mojobubbles: Anyway, we're doing the Twelfth Night, and we're about to start rehearsing. Abby had all these pics from the Battle City season that we were looking at, and then she put them down and we go up and act and stuff. Well, this other girl, Leah, (if your name is Leah, I seriously doubt you're the Leah from Shakespeare Club. ^^) goes over to the packet of YGO pics, picks one up, looks at it, and goes and hides it under her script, which is off to the side. Well, she's not looking, so I go over and take the picture, and give it back to Abby.
Kura (that's Ryou/Bakura's nickname, I made it up): It wasn't right for that girl to steal!
Y. Bakura: (looks up) Steal? Huh? Where!?
Mojobubbles: ANYWAY, Leah is playing Maria, and she needs a note to give to the guy playing Malvolio, who is a 6th grader.
Kaya: Lemme guess: she got the same page of pictures.
Mojobubbles: Yep. Rolled it up, and dropped it on the floor. Right in front of Abby! So, then, this 6th grader picks it up, unrolls it, and pretends to read it. But seriously? He has this look on his face like, "What the hell is this?" So, Marissa, Abby, BMMW/Kirstie, and me are positively rolling on the floor laughing. Then the kid goes and is handing the page to Vicky, cuz he didn't know whose it was, and then me and Marissa are like, "It's ours! It's ours!" and Vicky's like, "Ooh! Yu-Gi-Oh! I love that show!" So anyway...that was really funny.
Y. Mojobubbles: It was though. I was in my Soul Room when she started laughing her ass off, and she told me what was so funny, so then I started laughing....hell, I bet even Marissa's isolated yami and Kirstie's rude one were laughing too.
Isis: /Excuse me/ for interrupting your party, but I was wondering - WHY AREN'T I IN THE FIC?!?!?!?!?
All: (blink)
Isis: (rants) It's not faaaiiiiiirrrrrr!!! Malik gets to be in it, and he's a big meanie! He stole from me!! My own brother! And he gets a part in the fic and I don't!
All: (blink)
Isis: (calms down) I feel hurt and angry when you exclude me from fanfics and I want you to include me more.
Y. Mojobubbles: Ok.........(zaps Isis into the fic)
Mojobubbles: Did Isis use an I-sentence?
Kaya: Wow....that was....un-Isis-y.
Yami: I didn't know Isis was capable of.....that.
Malik: (steps out from shadows) YEAH! (waves a tape over his head)
Yami Malik: We got it! We got the whole thing on tape!
Yami Bakura: Yah! (hi-fives them)
Mojobubbles: Yeah.....moving on, review responses!
Review Responses:
Europa: Hi!!!!! *ahem* Yeah, my sister has a Kaiba deck and a Yugi deck, and sometimes she makes me duel her. I've beaten her every time, but then she's only seven. ^^U But I dunno if this duel will be very good. I've never written a duel 'afore.
Ancient Enchantress: Sorry, Ruby! (hangs head) Actually, my yami remembered you, she just wanted to be mean. She was in a bad mood.
Y. Mojobubbles: But not today! AIBOU GOT THE YU-GI-OH MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (glomps DVD)
Mojobubbles: Luna, go ahead and comfort Yami. He's certainly gonna need it in this chapter, cuz of all the stuff I do to him......(evil smile)
Y. Bakura and Y. Malik: (holding this big wiggling bag thingy) (Ra that does not sound right!)
Y. Bakura: We found him!
Mojobubbles: Good job, guys! (opens bag) (Shadi pops out of the bag)
All (except Y. Bakura, Y. Malik, and Mojobubbles): GASP!
Kaya: It's been 5000 years and he still scares me! (hides behind Yami)
Shadi: What am I doing here?
Mojobubbles: Yah, I threw you in, cuz I needed 7 Millennium Items.
Yami: So you put in the scales, too?
Mojobubbles: No, there are 8 in this ficcie, remember? The seven in this chapter are the Eye, Ring, Puzzle, Rod, Necklace, Key, and Kaya's, the Tears Of The Dolphin thing.

"In The Blink Of An Eye" by A*Teens
*************************************************
Surprise, surprise, Kaiba had a couple of Duel Disk Systems. And they were the cool ones from Battle City, too. So, Yami and Yugi did their cool lil combining thingy, and Yami Yugi (who will be referred to as Yami) put on a Duel Disk.
(Mojobubbles: (drools) I love it when Yami uses a Duel Disk System...he, like, jumps all over the place and throws the cards around....yeah.)
Yami didn't notice that Mokuba had added a few new cards to his deck.
He faced Pegasus, and their Duel Disk Systems (DDS) read 2000 LP (Life Points..duh). "Let's duel!" they said at the /exact same time/.
(Mojobubbles: Ra, how can they do that?!)
**Inside Yugi's mind**
"Alright, Yugi, should we-?"
"Use the Mind Shuffle Strategy?" Yugi finished. "I was just going to ask you." Yami paused.
"Yugi.....this is going to be very different then our last duel with Pegasus," he said finally.
"Why?" Yugi asked. Yami gently pulled him over to this window that appeared out of nowhere in Yugi's mind. Yugi looked through the window, and saw Pegasus standing there. A glow surrounded his Millennium Eye. But it was a very faint glow that flickered and sometimes disappeared.
"What happened to the Millennium Eye?" Yugi gasped. Yami put on his classic this-will-be-a-piece-of-cake smirk.
(Mojobubbles: (drools) Hoooottttttt....)
"Pegasus made a plan with Giovanni," Yami said, "and I'm guessing it involved Pegasus using the Millennium Eye to strengthen Rocket Corp.'s Pokemon. But, so much power was taken from the Millennium Eye, he has little left, especially since he just used it to capture quite a few souls."
"So, Yami, you're saying that Pegasus is going to have a hard time reading our minds?"
"Yes, Yugi, especially if we use the Mind Shuffle strategy," Yami replied.
"Let's do it," Yugi grinned.
**Outside Yugi's mind**
"Alright, Pegasus. Let's begin!" Yami said.
~*~WARNING: SUCK ASS DUEL ALERT WARNING: SUCK ASS DUEL ALERT WARNING: SUCK ASS DUEL ALERT WARNING: SUCK ASS DUEL ALERT WARNING: SUCK ASS DUEL ALERT~*~
(A/N: My sister has both starter decks, so the most of the cards are real, but she mixed 'em up so I might accidentally give Yugi some of Kaiba's cards. Gomen nasai*, ahead of time! *I'm very sorry)
Yami went first. "I play Skull Red Bird in Attack Mode!" he shouted, jumping around like he always does when he's dueling. ^_~
Pegasus thought for a moment. ^Skull Red Bird has 1550 Attack Points, not bad...^ "I lay this card face down, and end my turn."
It was Yami's turn. "Fine. Skull Red Bird, attack the face down card!"
Pegasus laughed. "Yami-Yugi-boy, I would've expected better from you! You just activated my trap card, Dark Hole! The effect of Dark Hole is that it destroys all monsters on the field! You lose your Skull Red Bird."
It was then Pegasus' turn. "I play the Witty Phantom in Defense Mode, and end my turn."
(Mojobubbles: Why did I give Pegasus the Witty Phantom? Cuz they look alike! Seriously!)
Yami studied his cards. He could feel a strange poking sensation. He realized it was Pegasus.
(Mojobubbles: NOT LIKE /THAT/ YOU PERVERTS!!!!!!!!)
Yami, what is that?Pegasus is trying to invade our minds and see our cards.Should we Mind Shuffle?No, not yet. Don't you remember? His Millennium Eye is weak, and we should be able to resist it.Pegasus may not be able to read our minds, but with three Blue Eyes, we're in trouble!I know, Yugi.Wow. Yugi said.
Yami held in his hand a card that rivaled a Blue Eyes itself. What Yami held was a Blue Eyes White Basilisk.
Yami heard someone gasp, and run over to Malik.
"Isis?!" they all gasped in surprise.
She blinked. And looked around. "Oh Ra," she murmured. "I thought he came here...."
Everyone just blinked. They'd ask her about it later.
Then she stepped aside, and the duel continued.
It was still Yami's turn, and he looked at Pegasus. "I summon the Blue Eyes White Basilisk!!!!!!" With a helluva lot of anime wind and light, the BEWB (Blue Eyes White Basilisk) appeared, and roared. "Not only that, but I equip my BEWB with the Dark Energy Magic card! It increases any Fiend-Type monster's Attack and Defense Points by 300. My monster has a higher attack than you, Pegasus. Blue Eyes White Basilisk, attack the Blue Eyes White Dragon with Deadly Poison!!!!"
In a sequence in which there was lots of wind, and lots of light, the BEWD was destroyed.
Pegasus was still in the game but with only 700 LP. "I play Uraby, in Attack Mode," he said, "and end my turn."
"Want to go down fighting, hm?" Yami taunted. "Alright, Blue Mystic Moon Warrior, attack Uraby with Blue Ice!" The Uraby was destroyed, as BMMW had 2500 Attack Points, and Pegasus /lost./
Deadly silence. Pegasus glared at Yami, but returned the souls to their bodies.
There was much shouting and confusion, but everyone was happy. Yami and Yugi hi-fived each other. They had done it. They had won.
Yami stepped over to Kaya. He smiled at her. She smiled back.
"I'm sorry," they said at the same time.
"I'm sorry," Yami said. "For what happened. I just....I didn't know what else to do. I would never try to hurt you on purpose."
"Yeah, I know," Kaya said. "I'm sorry for what I said. I know you don't hate me. I was just hurt, and confused." Without another word, she hugged him tight.
Yami let go and took her hand. He looked at the ground. "I found about...what happened that time...when we had that fight..back in Egypt." Kaya's eyes widened.
"You mean, you found out that I ran off and almost died?" she asked. "And you found out that me and Malik are friends?"
Yami stared. "What!?! Ask him to come here."
Kaya was about to, when she remembered. Malik had gotten so far from her.....because he hated her brother. "Malik, c'mere!" she called, feeling like she was meeting him for the first time.
"Yeah?" he asked.
"How do you know my sister?" Yami demanded. Malik looked surprised.
"Look, /Pharaoh/, we're just friends. Not that you would know, since you obviously don't care about her enough to have spent any time with her and then she-" Malik stopped. He and Isis had promised never to tell anyone about the time Kaya had run off without her permission.
"C'mon, don't fight!" Kaya said. "Malik, he already knows about that, Yami, we're just friends. But all that stuff, that led up to the whole Battle City thing....I dunno."
Malik and Yami looked at Kaya, then at each other. "Sorry, Kaya," they murmured.
"Don't tell me your sorry, tell each other!" Kaya said.
"Um...I guess it's in the past, now," Malik said. "Right, Yami?"
"Right, Malik," Yami said. And they shook on it.
"Yay!" Kaya laughed, hugging them both.
"Wow," Tea murmured. "How many times did Malik try and kill Yami again?" she asked, as Malik walked over to Bakura to talk to him, and stuff.
"I lost count," Tristan said.
Just then, Ash looked over to Pegasus. He was staring at Kaya, whose back was facing him.
"Joey," Ash said, "is it just me, or does Pegasus look eviler than usual?" Joey looked over at Pegasus. He was taking something out of his pocket.
It was a knife.
"KAYA, LOOK OUT!" Joey shouted.
Before she could turn or do anything, she went rigid, and collapsed into Yami's arms.
Misty screamed.
"Mokuba, don't look," Kaiba whispered, hugging his brother.
Yami sank down to the ground, holding Kaya tightly. He reached around, and pulled. The knife came out of her back, but it was obviously too late.
"Kaya," he whispered.
"Ow," she whispered back, trying to be funny. But even she knew she was finished.
"Kaya, I'm sorry!" Yami sobbed.
"It's not your fault," she choked. "You're the best big brother anyone could ever have."
"Doomo*" he smiled. (*Thank you)
"Ai shiteru*," Kaya said, and closed her eyes, a smile on her face. (*I love you)
"Kaya," Yami said. She didn't wake up. "Kaya, come on, wake up! Please, wake up...." Yami sobbed onto her shoulder.
No one said anything.
Malik couldn't move. He looked at Yami, and saw the pharaoh's hands were covered in blood. Malik looked down at his own hands. Just like.....when his yami had taken over.....when his father had died.....had been killed...by /him/. NOOO!" he screamed. Malik began to run, but Isis caught his wrist. "Let GO of me!!" he shouted. Isis said nothing, tears in her eyes.
Pegasus was laughing. Malik turned to him. "You sick bastard," he said, his voice shaking. "You've become a murderer."
TF (Team Rocket = Team Fruitcake = TF, yah) looked at each other. /Murder?/ This guy had gone too far.
Misty and Ash had basically gone into shock. Bakura held his head in his hands.
(Mojobubbles: Ra Kura's kawaii when he's miserable (melts)..)
Malik was shaking uncontrollably. Isis hugged him hard.
Kaiba looked down at Mokuba, who was watching the scene with wild, scared eyes. Kaiba was rivals with Yugi, and especially Yami, but Yami had just lost his little sister. He could imagine himself in the spirit's place.....without Mokuba.
Yugi couldn't think of anything else to say. He sat down next to Yami, and let him cry.
Suddenly, Malik, Isis, Pegasus, Yugi, Bakura, and Yami felt a stinging sensation on their hands. There was a dark brown mark that had never been there before. It was a star, surrounded by a circle and funky symbols. You know that symbol thingy that pops up when you summon Exodia? Well, this was the exact same symbol.
Also, at the same time, the ground next to Yami began to glow, and Shadi popped out. Like, when he popped out of the stairs in Pegasus' castle. Yeah.
"I sense a-" Shadi was about to start ranting on a "disturbance in the mystical balance thingy" when he noticed the scene around him. Then he noticed the symbol thing on his hand. Puzzled, Shadi shut up.
Isis buried her head in Malik's shoulder. Ra, if the /keeper/ of the Items didn't know any way to save her, then that was it. Kaya was gone.
Bakura looked around. The symbol....it was a star, with something in the middle. It was.....a dolphin. Confused, Bakura looked up again, and thought for a moment. His eyes widened in surprise, and he ran to Malik and Isis.
He whispered what he had noticed to them. They stared at him, wearing looks of shock identical to Bakura's.
"Try it," Malik said, his voice unsteady. "Try and save her." Bakura nodded.
He walked further down the field they had been dueling at. Isis was back where she had started, and if you were to draw a line between the two of them, it would be straight. Malik grabbed Shadi, and yanked the even more confused Egyptian so that Shadi was standing directly across from Isis, and Bakura across from Malik. Pegasus was all the way at one end of the field, and Yami, Yugi, and Kaya were clumped in the middle.
Now, if anyone had been flying over the scene, they would have seen something interesting. Five people (Isis, Pegasus, Bakura, Malik, and Shadi) formed a huge star. In the center were three others (Kaya, Yami, and Yugi), clumped together.
Then, something amazing happened. A low hum was heard, and the ground seemed to vibrate.
Without warning, light poured from the Millennium Items. The symbol on their hands was glowing blood red, and it hurt so bad they felt as though they would pass out. The glow circled around Kaya. And, because this is an anime, and it's Yu-Gi-Oh, there was /lots/ of anime wind. Like, tons. So, anyway, without warning, it all stopped.
Malik, Isis, Bakura, Shadi, Pegasus, Yugi, and Yami nearly collapsed, the pain was so great. Yami was about to pass out when he heard a small moan.
Blinking, everything came back into focus and Yami looked down.
Kaya stared back up at him, her eyes wild and glazed over.
Kaya was alive.

EVIL CLIFFHANGER! MWAHAHAHA!
Mojobubbles: SHOGO IS KAWAII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Y. Mojobubbles: We went to Kirstie's house last night and watched the Yu-Gi- Oh! movie. Then we watched a couple of eps that Kathy had on DVD.
Mojobubbles: IT WAS SO COOL! We were, like, beyond hyper. I started losing my voice at 9:30.
Y. Mojobubbles: Kirstie did these really funny impressions of people. Like, she did Pegasus. She went, "Hi, my name's Pegasus, and I, like, need a haircut!!!!!"
Mojobubbles: This is what I made up:
Croquet: (walks into Pegasus' room) Mr. Pegasus?
Pegasus: (jumping on his bed, watching Funny Bunny reruns, and listening to the Backstreet Boys)
Croquet: Sir, are you alright?
Pegasus: Ohmygod, Nick is, like, sooooooooo hot!!!!
Mojobubbles: But there were so many sub mistakes! Like, here are some: Kaiba was spelled as Caiba, Dark Magician was translated as Dark Pharmacist, Beaver Warrior was translated as Louise, instead of Duel Monsters it was Dear Monsters (so me and my friends were going, "I summon Blue Eyes White Moose in Attack Mode"), Shogo was spelled Shyogo and they called him a her, and these two were the funniest. One, Yugi means "game" in Japanese, so there was this one part where Joey is looking for Yugi, so he shouts, and the sub says, "Game! Where are you!?" The other funniest one is when Joey finds Yugi beaten up, and he says to Yugi, "and they took your thousand year jigsaw puzzle!" Then it was ROTFLMAO for us!
Y. Mojobubbles: Oh yeah, Malik is in a very good mood. See, we told him what happens in the story, and also-
Malik: (bouncing off the walls) MY DUBBED NAME ISN'T TERRANCE!!!!!!!!! IT'S MARIK!!!!!!!!!!! La la la la la la LA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mojobubbles: I just about had a cow when I saw the preview for the 11 episode. Malik takes over the Rare Hunter, then says to Yami, "Remember me?"
Y. Mojobubbles: And Yami goes, "Marik!!"
Malik: Presents NOW! (throws present at Mojobubbles)
Mojobubbles: (gets hit with present) Ow! Anyway, these are the presents: Ruby has a glomp for Bakura.
Bakura: (gets glomped) (blushes)
Mojobubbles: Soooo kawaii! Anyway, from Blue Mystic Moon Warrior, we have a Mokuba shake with plenty of sugar for Kaiba.
Kaiba: I. Hate. BMMW.
Mojobubbles: For Kura, Malik, and Yami, tight leather pants and tank tops. (drools at Kura and Yami)
Mojobubbles: For Team Fruitcake, they get a plan that actually works!
TF: Yay! Thanks! (steals Pikachu)
Ash: Hey!
Y. Mojobubbles: Y. Malik and Y. Bakura get some of the worms Mojobubbles and BMMW learned about in science.
Y. Malik: Cool.
Y. Bakura: That's so nice!
Y. Mojobubbles: (starry eyes at Y. Bakura)
Mojobubbles: Yugi gets a pair of tall shoes and some more stilts. ^^
Yugi: Why is BMMW so obsessed with stilts?!
Mojobubbles: Joey gets salt. ^^ Tea and Tristan get mongooses. I think that's all of them!
BMMW: (appears) You forgot Kaya's! (throws a bomb at Kaya) MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!
Y. Mojobubbles: GASP! (grabs the Millennium Rod and controls the bomb so it misses Kaya)
Malik: BMMW, I don't like it when you attempt to murder my best friends, and I'd appreciate it if you didn't do it again. It makes me sad.
BMMW: (sniff) Sorry. V_V (vanishes)
Mojobubbles: You don't want that, Yami! (points to Millennium Rod) Malik licked it!
Yugi: O_o?
Mojobubbles: Abby found a pic on the Internet of Malik licking the Millennium Rod. With this look on his face like, "Oh I'm so damn sexy." Seriously. And Y. Malik is in the background with this look like, "Hikari, you're nuts."
Y. Mojobubbles: Ra, the author's notes are always so huge! What's up with that?!
Mojobubbles: But, yami, we didn't tell them to-
Y. Mojobubbles: Ok, one more word, and then it's over!

"Not only that, but I equip my BEWB with the Dark Energy Magic card! It increases any Fiend-Type monster's Attack and Defense Points by 300. My monster has a higher attack than you, Pegasus. Blue Eyes White Basilisk, attack the Blue Eyes White Dragon with Deadly Poison!!!!"
In a sequence in which there was lots of wind, and lots of light, the BEWD was destroyed.
Pegasus was still in the game but with only 700 LP. "I play Uraby, in Attack Mode," he said, "and end my turn."
"Want to go down fighting, hm?" Yami taunted. "Alright, Blue Mystic Moon Warrior, attack Uraby with Blue Ice!" The Uraby was destroyed, as BMMW had 2500 Attack Points, and Pegasus /lost./
Deadly silence. Pegasus glared at Yami, but returned the souls to their bodies.
There was much shouting and confusion, but everyone was happy. Yami and Yugi hi-fived each other. They had done it. They had won.
Yami stepped over to Kaya. He smiled at her. She smiled back.
"I'm sorry," they said at the same time.
"I'm sorry," Yami said. "For what happened. I just....I didn't know what else to do. I would never try to hurt you on purpose."
"Yeah, I know," Kaya said. "I'm sorry for what I said. I know you don't hate me. I was just hurt, and confused." Without another word, she hugged him tight.
Yami let go and took her hand. He looked at the ground. "I found about...what happened that time...when we had that fight..back in Egypt." Kaya's eyes widened.
"You mean, you found out that I ran off and almost died?" she asked. "And you found out that me and Malik are friends?"
Yami stared. "What!?! Ask him to come here."
Kaya was about to, when she remembered. Malik had gotten so far from her.....because he hated her brother. "Malik, c'mere!" she called, feeling like she was meeting him for the first time.
"Yeah?" he asked.
"How do you know my sister?" Yami demanded. Malik looked surprised.
"Look, /Pharaoh/, we're just friends. Not that you would know, since you obviously don't care about her enough to have spent any time with her and then she-" Malik stopped. He and Isis had promised never to tell anyone about the time Kaya had run off without her permission.
"C'mon, don't fight!" Kaya said. "Malik, he already knows about that, Yami, we're just friends. But all that stuff, that led up to the whole Battle City thing....I dunno."
Malik and Yami looked at Kaya, then at each other. "Sorry, Kaya," they murmured.
"Don't tell me your sorry, tell each other!" Kaya said.
"Um...I guess it's in the past, now," Malik said. "Right, Yami?"
"Right, Malik," Yami said. And they shook on it.
"Yay!" Kaya laughed, hugging them both.
"Wow," Tea murmured. "How many times did Malik try and kill Yami again?" she asked, as Malik walked over to Bakura to talk to him, and stuff.
"I lost count," Tristan said.
Just then, Ash looked over to Pegasus. He was staring at Kaya, whose back was facing him.
"Joey," Ash said, "is it just me, or does Pegasus look eviler than usual?" Joey looked over at Pegasus. He was taking something out of his pocket.
It was a knife.
"KAYA, LOOK OUT!" Joey shouted.
Before she could turn or do anything, she went rigid, and collapsed into Yami's arms.
Misty screamed.
"Mokuba, don't look," Kaiba whispered, hugging his brother.
Yami sank down to the ground, holding Kaya tightly. He reached around, and pulled. The knife came out of her back, but it was obviously too late.
"Kaya," he whispered.
"Ow," she whispered back, trying to be funny. But even she knew she was finished.
"Kaya, I'm sorry!" Yami sobbed.
"It's not your fault," she choked. "You're the best big brother anyone could ever have."
"Doomo*" he smiled. (*Thank you)
"Ai shiteru*," Kaya said, and closed her eyes, a smile on her face. (*I love you)
"Kaya," Yami said. She didn't wake up. "Kaya, come on, wake up! Please, wake up...." Yami sobbed onto her shoulder.
No one said anything.
Malik couldn't move. He looked at Yami, and saw the pharaoh's hands were covered in blood. Malik looked down at his own hands. Just like.....when his yami had taken over.....when his father had died.....had been killed...by /him/. NOOO!" he screamed. Malik began to run, but Isis caught his wrist. "Let GO of me!!" he shouted. Isis said nothing, tears in her eyes.
Pegasus was laughing. Malik turned to him. "You sick bastard," he said, his voice shaking. "You've become a murderer."
TF (Team Rocket = Team Fruitcake = TF, yah) looked at each other. /Murder?/ This guy had gone too far.
Misty and Ash had basically gone into shock. Bakura held his head in his hands.
(Mojobubbles: Ra Kura's kawaii when he's miserable (melts)..)
Malik was shaking uncontrollably. Isis hugged him hard.
Kaiba looked down at Mokuba, who was watching the scene with wild, scared eyes. Kaiba was rivals with Yugi, and especially Yami, but Yami had just lost his little sister. He could imagine himself in the spirit's place.....without Mokuba.
Yugi couldn't think of anything else to say. He sat down next to Yami, and let him cry.
Suddenly, Malik, Isis, Pegasus, Yugi, Bakura, and Yami felt a stinging sensation on their hands. There was a dark brown mark that had never been there before. It was a star, surrounded by a circle and funky symbols. You know that symbol thingy that pops up when you summon Exodia? Well, this was the exact same symbol.
Also, at the same time, the ground next to Yami began to glow, and Shadi popped out. Like, when he popped out of the stairs in Pegasus' castle. Yeah.
"I sense a-" Shadi was about to start ranting on a "disturbance in the mystical balance thingy" when he noticed the scene around him. Then he noticed the symbol thing on his hand. Puzzled, Shadi shut up.
Isis buried her head in Malik's shoulder. Ra, if the /keeper/ of the Items didn't know any way to save her, then that was it. Kaya was gone.
Bakura looked around. The symbol....it was a star, with something in the middle. It was.....a dolphin. Confused, Bakura looked up again, and thought for a moment. His eyes widened in surprise, and he ran to Malik and Isis.
He whispered what he had noticed to them. They stared at him, wearing looks of shock identical to Bakura's.
"Try it," Malik said, his voice unsteady. "Try and save her." Bakura nodded.
He walked further down the field they had been dueling at. Isis was back where she had started, and if you were to draw a line between the two of them, it would be straight. Malik grabbed Shadi, and yanked the even more confused Egyptian so that Shadi was standing directly across from Isis, and Bakura across from Malik. Pegasus was all the way at one end of the field, and Yami, Yugi, and Kaya were clumped in the middle.
Now, if anyone had been flying over the scene, they would have seen something interesting. Five people (Isis, Pegasus, Bakura, Malik, and Shadi) formed a huge star. In the center were three others (Kaya, Yami, and Yugi), clumped together.
Then, something amazing happened. A low hum was heard, and the ground seemed to vibrate.
Without warning, light poured from the Millennium Items. The symbol on their hands was glowing blood red, and it hurt so bad they felt as though they would pass out. The glow circled around Kaya. And, because this is an anime, and it's Yu-Gi-Oh, there was /lots/ of anime wind. Like, tons. So, anyway, without warning, it all stopped.
Malik, Isis, Bakura, Shadi, Pegasus, Yugi, and Yami nearly collapsed, the pain was so great. Yami was about to pass out when he heard a small moan.
Blinking, everything came back into focus and Yami looked down.
Kaya stared back up at him, her eyes wild and glazed over.
Kaya was alive.

EVIL CLIFFHANGER! MWAHAHAHA!
Mojobubbles: SHOGO IS KAWAII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Y. Mojobubbles: We went to Kirstie's house last night and watched the Yu-Gi- Oh! movie. Then we watched a couple of eps that Kathy had on DVD.
Mojobubbles: IT WAS SO COOL! We were, like, beyond hyper. I started losing my voice at 9:30.
Y. Mojobubbles: Kirstie did these really funny impressions of people. Like, she did Pegasus. She went, "Hi, my name's Pegasus, and I, like, need a haircut!!!!!"
Mojobubbles: This is what I made up:
Croquet: (walks into Pegasus' room) Mr. Pegasus?
Pegasus: (jumping on his bed, watching Funny Bunny reruns, and listening to the Backstreet Boys)
Croquet: Sir, are you alright?
Pegasus: Ohmygod, Nick is, like, sooooooooo hot!!!!
Mojobubbles: But there were so many sub mistakes! Like, here are some: Kaiba was spelled as Caiba, Dark Magician was translated as Dark Pharmacist, Beaver Warrior was translated as Louise, instead of Duel Monsters it was Dear Monsters (so me and my friends were going, "I summon Blue Eyes White Moose in Attack Mode"), Shogo was spelled Shyogo and they called him a her, and these two were the funniest. One, Yugi means "game" in Japanese, so there was this one part where Joey is looking for Yugi, so he shouts, and the sub says, "Game! Where are you!?" The other funniest one is when Joey finds Yugi beaten up, and he says to Yugi, "and they took your thousand year jigsaw puzzle!" Then it was ROTFLMAO for us!
Y. Mojobubbles: Oh yeah, Malik is in a very good mood. See, we told him what happens in the story, and also-
Malik: (bouncing off the walls) MY DUBBED NAME ISN'T TERRANCE!!!!!!!!! IT'S MARIK!!!!!!!!!!! La la la la la la LA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mojobubbles: I just about had a cow when I saw the preview for the 11 episode. Malik takes over the Rare Hunter, then says to Yami, "Remember me?"
Y. Mojobubbles: And Yami goes, "Marik!!"
Malik: Presents NOW! (throws present at Mojobubbles)
Mojobubbles: (gets hit with present) Ow! Anyway, these are the presents: Ruby has a glomp for Bakura.
Bakura: (gets glomped) (blushes)
Mojobubbles: Soooo kawaii! Anyway, from Blue Mystic Moon Warrior, we have a Mokuba shake with plenty of sugar for Kaiba.
Kaiba: I. Hate. BMMW.
Mojobubbles: For Kura, Malik, and Yami, tight leather pants and tank tops. (drools at Kura and Yami)
Mojobubbles: For Team Fruitcake, they get a plan that actually works!
TF: Yay! Thanks! (steals Pikachu)
Ash: Hey!
Y. Mojobubbles: Y. Malik and Y. Bakura get some of the worms Mojobubbles and BMMW learned about in science.
Y. Malik: Cool.
Y. Bakura: That's so nice!
Y. Mojobubbles: (starry eyes at Y. Bakura)
Mojobubbles: Yugi gets a pair of tall shoes and some more stilts. ^^
Yugi: Why is BMMW so obsessed with stilts?!
Mojobubbles: Joey gets salt. ^^ Tea and Tristan get mongooses. I think that's all of them!
BMMW: (appears) You forgot Kaya's! (throws a bomb at Kaya) MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!
Y. Mojobubbles: GASP! (grabs the Millennium Rod and controls the bomb so it misses Kaya)
Malik: BMMW, I don't like it when you attempt to murder my best friends, and I'd appreciate it if you didn't do it again. It makes me sad.
BMMW: (sniff) Sorry. V_V (vanishes)
Mojobubbles: You don't want that, Yami! (points to Millennium Rod) Malik licked it!
Yugi: O_o?
Mojobubbles: Abby found a pic on the Internet of Malik licking the Millennium Rod. With this look on his face like, "Oh I'm so damn sexy." Seriously. And Y. Malik is in the background with this look like, "Hikari, you're nuts."
Y. Mojobubbles: Ra, the author's notes are always so huge! What's up with that?!
Mojobubbles: But, yami, we didn't tell them to-
Y. Mojobubbles: Ok, one more word, and then it's over!
