Relick: Tee-hee! I knew you'd all like Aryella! Bet you didn't know her yami was Yami's sister. You didn't, right?
Aryella: I guess they all love me more than you Relick!
Jaina: Nuh-uh! They want me!
Relick: Will you two just shut up! If it wasn't for me, you two wouldn't even exist! .*
Aryella & Jaina: ;__; sowwy…
Relick: That's alright! Now, for the yami issue… I'll call the characters by their yami's names when they switch. Yami Yugi is Yami (as usual) and Yami Aryella is Jaina. Yami Bakura will remain Ryou so I don't spoil the ending of the story! Now let's continue!!
Jaina glared at Yami, her eyes still flowing with tears. "Now, you'll pay for what you did, Yami. If your friends truly are more important than your kin, then defeat me!"
Yami nodded. "Fine, then."
"I'll go first, then." Jaina said, drawing a card from her deck. "I'll use two mana points to bring forth the Komori Dragon!" Two blue bubbles were released from her Staff, forming into the Komori Dragon. Seto and Anzu watched with amazement at the destructive creature. "And I'll use one mana point to play a card face down and end my turn. Your move."
Yami drew his card with uncertainty. He was still trying to figure out how the mana point usage worked. He looked at the drawn card. "The Dark Magician!" he thought to himself. "That one will come in handy once I figure out how to cast it." He looked up at Jaina. "I'll also play a card face down by spending one mana point." A blue bubble was released from Yami's Puzzle. "Your move."
"Yami has no idea what he's doing," Jaina thought to herself. "Serves him right, though." Then she said out loud, "Are you ready?! Because I use ten mana points to sacrifice my Komori Dragon to bring forth my ultimate creature! Arise Nine Headed Hydra!" As Jaina shouted out these words, a scarlet dragon with nine heads emerged. Without warning, Yami's mana points went down, revealing the Dark Magician.
"What happened? I didn't play the Dark Magician!" Yami cried out.
"It's my Nine Headed Hydra's special ability." Jaina explained. "It has the power to draw out a monster from your hand using YOUR mana points!"
Yami's frustration started to grow. "That doesn't matter! Dark Magician! Use six mana points to attack Jaina's Hydra! Dark Magic Attack!"
The Dark Magician sent out its lethal spell, casting it towards the Nine Headed Hydra. When the dust cleared, the Hydra was still standing. But this time it had eleven heads instead of nine!
"But…that's impossible!" Yami shouted, looking at Jaina's 2300 point monster. "The Dark Magician is stronger!"
Jaina laughed to herself. "I told you the Nine Headed Hydra was my ultimate monster. It's undefeatable! Every time you attack, a head flies off, revealing two more! And it gets stronger with every attack! Now! Herculean Poison Attack!"
Jaina's Hydra spat a green liquid at the Dark Magician.
Yami hesitated. The Nine Headed Hydra was now at 2700 attack points, enough to destroy his monster. "I reveal my face down card, Mirror Force!"
The Hydra's attack blasted off the Dark Magician and back to where it came.
"Nice try!" Jaina called. "But I play my face down card, Negate Attack!" The attack was neutralized, leaving both monsters unharmed.
"This is amazing!" Seto exclaimed. "This duel could go either way!"
Just then, something ran out from behind a stone and smacked into Anzu.
"MOKUBA!!!" Seto shouted at his brother. "What are you doing here!?!?"
For the first time ever, Mokuba ignored his elder brother. "Yugi!!" he shouted. "Give me your Millennium Puzzle!!"
"What do you want with my Puzzle?" Yami asked. "You have no use for it."
"Ryou told me to get it from you or else he'll try to hurt Seto," Mokuba cried. "I don't want anything to happen to him!"
Yami realized that Ryou's dark half must be trying to use Mokuba by threatening the one he cared most about. He looked down at him. Those bright, hopeful eyes were staring at him. "Mokuba," Yami said after some thought. "I can't give you my Millennium Puzzle. But I WILL protect you and your brother."
Mokuba didn't look to sure. "Just give me the Puzzle!" he shouted, bumping slightly into one of the pillars.
It was Jaina's. Trying to maintain her balance, the Millennium Staff slipped through her fingertips. "NOOO!!! MY STAFF!!" she screamed as it flew through the air pummeling back to the earth below. Everyone stopped what they were doing to see what Jaina was yelling about. Light flashed, and Jaina looked as if she had just awoken from a dream. Jou and Honda woke up, too.
Aryella was back to normal.
She looked very confused as she stared at Yami. "Yugi, what's going on?" she asked. Quite by accident, she looked down and screamed. "Someone help me!! Why am I standing on a skinny pole, eighty feet from the ground!?!?"
Seto grew concerned for her safety. "Aryella! Stop moving! You'll fall off!" But it was too late. Aryella slipped and was now falling back to earth. She then landed in Seto's arms. His face looked very pale.
"Are you OK?" he asked.
Aryella was too shocked to say anything except one thing, "Thanks."
Anzu walked over to her and handed over the Staff. "Well, the rules were whoever fell off first loses. So Yugi is the winner."
Yami jumped off the pillar. "Aryella," he said. "May I see your Millennium Staff?"
Aryella didn't look to comfortable handing him her Item, but did anyway.
Yami closed his eyes and whispered to the Staff, "Jaina, I'm sorry I left you, sister. My soul has been within the Puzzle for five millennia, but I had no idea that it would hurt you so. Can you ever forgive your poor, foolish little brother?" As if in reply, the Staff emitted a warm feeling through Yami's body. Jaina had forgiven him. Light flashed. Yugi was back.
"Aryella, do you think you could help us?" he asked.
"How so?"
Yugi explained all about the letter and the upcoming duel with the Spirit of the Millenium Ring.
"Oooh! Sounds exciting!" she replied. "I'm in!"
They now had a powerful ally on their side. "Look out, Ryou!" Yugi thought to himself. "Because here we come!"
