Anthy: weeeee! I can have fun!
Kamui: (From X/1999) Um….mew?
Anthy: Don't say that. That's my word.
Kamui: Mean.
Anthy: Aww. *hug*
Kamui: I feel loved.
Anthy: okay…what ta write.
Kamui: I'm leaving now.
Anthy Okay.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Their victory was short lived. The Dragon had followed them all the way back to Domino. For the entire week that they were back, Anthy found it difficult to do almost anything. She couldn't sleep, didn't eat, didn't talk to anyone ect. It was rare to see her out in the daylight.
"And you're not the least bit worried?" Yami asked, having tea with Seto and Kaylynn that Friday. (Yes…they're having tea. It was a good idea at the time).
"No. Not really." Kaylynn said.
"She's a big girl and can take care of herself." Yami laughed uneasily at Seto's comment.
"I really don't want a repeat of what happened last time." Yami said harshly.
Seto was a little take aback by his rival's sudden mood change.
"Alright, let's pay her a visit." Kaylynn said, hugging her man.
Anthy's apartment was a clean as ever. None of the dishes were used, nothing. Not even a wrinkly in the sheets on her bed. Kaylynn jabbed Yami in the ribs with her elbow.
"Bet you spent a lot of time in there eh?" She whispered, grinning.
"shut up." Yami hissed.
"Um…over here." Seto said, standing on her balcony.
The two ran over to him, looking at what he was pointing at. There was the dragon, looking up at them grinning. Yami glared, rage building inside of him. Sleeping on the dragon's back, was Anthy.
"Damn you!" Yami shouted, immediately summoning his Dark Magician. The dragon laughed.
"Fool!" the dragon flew straight at the Dark Magician, snapping his body in half with its jaws. Yami cried out in pain and dropped to his knees, holding his hand over a wound in his stomach.
Anthy's eyes shot open. She stood on top of the dragon (I'll name it sooner or later) and in her hand was the Dark Magician's staff. Seto summoned his Blue eyes and Kaylynn, her Fairy King. The dragon lunged at the Blue Eyes' throat, biting through the strong scaled of a fellow dragon. The Fairy king was a formidable opponent to any other, but Anthy had magic to begin with, increasing her chances to win. And she did.
Yami was the only one injured from the attack. Kaylynn wanted to follow, but Seto suggested that they call the others. Seto tended to his rival's wounds while Kaylynn did just that. They soon were headed to Egypt, on Yami's Osiris of course.
"Promise not to fall off this time?" Kaylynn joked.
"fine." Yami said weakly. It hurt.
"Are you going to be okay?" Bakura asked.
"I didn't know you cared."
"Shut up and answer my question."
"I think."
"I want a definite Yes or No."
"Maybe."
Ishtaru laughed. The rest of the group shook their heads. Yami looked at his Dark Magician card again.
"Hey…look at this."
The card was stained with blood.

The dragon looked at the limp form of Anthy, sleeping in a chair on the opposite side of the room. She held the secret to the Pharaoh's demise. His emotions would drive him over the edge and cause true and utter chaos from five areas of the ruins. This would cause the dragon of earth to come to destroy all. Anthy opened her eyes.
"Radament." She whispered. The dragon looked at her.
"What?" It said sharply.
"Nothing."
The spell kicked in again and Anthy was asleep. Radament made preparations, activating cards from Anthy's deck to welcome his "guests".

"Malik…what's that?"
Seto pointed to a silvery glint on the sand. Yami said nothing. He hoped that wasn't what he thought it was. No one could confirm what it was. Osiris screeched in pain and thrashed about violently, throwing it's riders to the sand. Yami recalled his dragon before something grabbed Ishtaru's wrist and began dragging him into the sand.
"This is not happening!" Yami activated a remove trap card and Ishtaru was freed.
"Yami…what's going on?" Malik asked, grabbing the former pharaoh's shirt and shaking him a couple times.
"I don't know!" He cried. Malik dropped him.
A sharp chill ran up Yami's spine. He twitched once and his eyes grew small.
"Yami…is something wrong?" Kaylynn asked, poking him once or twice.
"It's burning" He whispered.
Everyone looked at him like he had grown another head. Yami sprang to his feet and pointed to the pyramids. His arm twitched and beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"It's burning! Egypt is burning!" He cried, sinking back to his knees with his hands covering his face. Ishtaru and Bakura grabbed his arms and pulled him to his feet and Kaylynn slapped him.
"No more of this burning crap Yami!" She shouted.
"Nothing's hurting you now. Egypt is not burning. Your wounds will heal and the world won't go to hell unless you can't pull yourself together." Seto added.
Yami slowly nodded. He wasn't so sure. It was a bad feeling inside him that kept growing and growing. The group summoned more of their cards and hurried towards the pyramids as the sun began to set. None of them ever saw what was following them.
