Attara: Another sad chapter, but not too sad.

Aria: How much sadder could it get? Yami is gone!

Attara: Oh, be quiet! Back to this fic, I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! Last time we left off where Devi and Aria were supposed to be going to a dance, with Duke Devlin as the host. I know this isn't accurate, but something is going to happen that's very important. And just in case that you're confused, Liana's soul died when she saw that "blinding light."

Fatal Deprivation

A couple of hours later, we stepped into the foyer of Duke's mansion. Duke personally greeted us at the door.

"Mr. Devlin, why did you invite me?" Devi asked suspiciously.

"You are my guest of honor, Liana."

"Really? But isn't this the Duelist's Dance?"

"There's no need for you to have to duel." Interesting…

"Ok…"

The room was a little filled with a lot of people obsessed with Duel Dice Monsters. I have no idea how it's played, but it's also very similar to the Shadow Game. The game confuses me, so if I were to explain it, it would be even more confusing, so just leave at the idea that it's Duel Monsters played with dice.

Just moments later, a boy, along with a blond-haired boy, came in. Devi, I think that that spiky-haired kid looks familiar… I commented. Do you think he might be related to Yami? Devi wondered. I don't know… I responded, my hopes slightly heightened. Now that we're talking about ancient Egypt, do you think that Seto Kaiba looks like the priest? I remembered. Well, I never saw him.

As if on cue, we saw Seto Kaiba walk in. It looked as if he was forced to come against his will. After a couple of minutes, a girl came in. She wore a skirt and a blouse to this dance, paying attention to the part of the invitation that stated formality. The girl eagerly asked Seto for a dance and he accepted with reluctance.

After an hour when the ball had started, Seto, the Yami-like character, the blonde guy, and the girl heard a scream in the hall. Devi detected the sound of distress and invisibly teleported to the area. Of course everybody wanted to play "hero." We saw that there was a stupid duelist who was screaming that a thief had just stolen her deck. She had some resemblance to someone… Devi quietly lurked in the shadows as we watched Yu-Gi, Joey, the unknown girl, and Seto run over to see what had happened. All of a sudden, everyone who was at the scene was sucked into a huge vortex that formed on the floor. I thought I saw a smirk on the "distressed" duelist… We had landed on our feet while everyone else was knocked unconscious for a few moments. What happened? I asked frantically. I don't know… There seems to be a powerful force that's stopping me from detecting any evil presence and that distressed girl isn't here, so I'm guessing this is a trap. Devi reasoned, with absolutely no panic in her voice (as if I was expecting any).

Devi concentrated but still couldn't identify what had trapped them down here. Then, Seto started to stir and everybody else started to regain his or her consciousness. He's right there! I exclaimed as I saw Yami's twin. He even had the millennium puzzle around his neck to show that Yami's spirit was within him. It's not important for you to have a reunion with Yami right now, okay? There are more serious things at hand. Devi scolded. Fine then, but if he comes out when he realizes that I'm right here, I'm not ignoring him, okay? I muttered. Fine then. Devi allowed.

"Ugh, what happened?" Seto asked.

"I don't know." The strange girl replied.

"My deck, it's gone!" Yami-twin had screamed.

"Mine too!" exclaimed the blonde boy.

"Oh no, what happened to them?" the girl wondered when she found out that hers was gone as well.

"My precious Blue Eyes!" Seto angrily shouted.

They're all so materialistic! Devi and I were not noticed since we were still invisible, but she made our legs follow the gang very closely. The unfamiliar girl seemed to like Seto Kaiba, but he didn't seem as interested in her as she was in him. Then, without warning, a black hole came out of no where. A booming voice deafened our eardrums.

"You all seem so helpless without your decks; why, that is, except for you, Devi!" a female voice taunted.

"You seem to be mistaken, whoever you are, but there's no one here named Devi!" the unknown girl retorted.

"You're wrong, Tori!" the voice cackled.

For the first time, I paid more attention to Tori's features. She reminded me of Saka, when I was queen of Egypt. Then, Seto's deck appeared and seemed to be telekinetically powered to float into the dark abyss of another vortex. Why are there so many vortexes? I asked Devi. It's the symbol of another realm… Devi murmured. Seto screamed and tried to run after the deck, but Yami-twin restrained his maniacal attempt. Instead, Tori had glowed slightly and the cards were retrieved.

"I have…special abilites." she explained as she pointed to the hilt of a golden dagger.

What a snob. I muttered. Devi was so much better and she at least had to work for it! Devi giggled a little, making a small noise that accidentally attracted everyone's attention.

"Uh…I think that someone here is named Devi, Joey." Yami-twin whispered.

"But who, Yu-Gi?" Joey asked.

"I think that noise might be the answer." Tori hissed.

Oh no! She's going to find us out! I thought sarcastically. That woman with the loud voice seems to have a lot of power anyway, and I don't even have all of mine too fight against it. Devi said, apparently not knowing that I was being sarcastic. Don't worry, we have two minds, and that's better than one! I reassured. All right. Devi answered.

Right after that thought, Our body materialized. Everyone saw us become visible, including Seto.

"Where did you learn how to do that?" Joey asked, amazed.

"Uh…"

"Are you, by any chance, Devi?" asked Yu-Gi.

"Uh…"

"You! Is this why you said you had amnesia?!" demanded Seto. Okay, I've heard stupid questions, but this is by far the dumbest!

"Let the poor girl speak!" Tori screamed. Hm…and I thought that she was a snob?

"Um…thanks, I guess. Well, for Joey's question, I trained to gain the ability. For Yu-Gi's and Seto's yes." Devi answered timidly.

Why did we materialize? I worried. It might have something to do with that hidden woman. Devi thought.

"Where are you?! What do you want to do with me?" I took over the body.

"I just love duel monsters decks…" the voice answered.

"I don't have one!" Whew, that was close, I almost said "we."

"You know quite well that you're more valuable than all of the cards in the world, or at least, what you have!" the voice said angrily.

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Do you want me to reveal it all to your friends?"

"Shut up!" I shrieked.

Okay, uh…Aria? I think that you've had too much anger in your blood stream. I better take over now. Devi advised. Good, that stupid woman is sticking her nose where it doesn't belong! I said angrily.

"What do you want from me?" Devi asked much more calmly than how I had.

"Why, your powers, of course." The voice evilly answered.

"I don't think I shall give it to you." Devi said, still very calm.

"Then the lives of your friends will be at stake…"

"I don't care about these people." I interrupted.

"What about your people, hm?"

"If you touch any organism in our domain, I swear I will crush you with everything I have!"

"Ooh! I think I just touched a weak spot, eh?"

Why did you take over again? Devi asked. Sorry, I got caught up in the moment. I apologized.

"I will give you my power if you solidify as you have done to me, but if you touch my people, you will die with the determination of all the Mornedraians in the realm!" Devi compromised, but I thought that it was a stupid deal.

"Agreed." Of course she would, it was in her favor!!

Instantly, a woman appeared in front of Devi. Everyone, except Devi, recognized her face. Wow! I didn't know you had a twin! I was surprised at the similarities. What? I don't! Devi said, perplexed with the reaction.

"Whoa, I think I'm seeing double!" Joey said.

Okay, that might have convinced me. Devi thought. And I couldn't?! I asked. Uh…shush! She's talking! Devi eluded from the subject.

"Are you ready for the transition?" the woman asked, interrupting our thoughts.

"Yes." Devi agreed.

The woman stood still for a couple of seconds and then a loud noise was heard. A blinding light prevented anyone to see what was happening. Even I couldn't see what was going on. Although Devi and I have separate magic sources, we had always shared a connection…probably from me supposedly being her as a passionate type of girl. When one of us is weak, the other is as well, even when we weren't sharing bodies. Now, we were and the connection was strong. We blacked out.

Attara: I might be causing brain damage with all of the times I made them get knocked out.

Aria: Really?

Attara: As you can tell, I already overdid the unconsciousness phases for Aria…

Aria: What is that supposed to mean?!

Attara: See?

Aria: REVIEW!!!
