Summer Fun
By: ~*Brittney a.k.a Hoshi Mizuriu*~

Disclaimer: My gosh how long has it been since I updated anything on FF.net? Geeze.anyways, to tell you all the truth, I was actually afraid to get back to writing up my fanfics since no ideas came and I just didn't feel like it. But what kind of excuse is that, you're asking? A big fat empty one, that's what I think. Since I'm sick right now and I have nothing to do while I'm at home, I'll just try to finish this chapter. Anyways, enjoy!

~*~

"Mizuriu, I challenge you to a Duel!!" Yami Yugi growled as he pointed at the reddish brown haired girl.

"Yami!!" The smaller version of him, Yugi Moto gasped with wide eyes.

Hoshi just rolls her eyes and places her hands on her hips, looking at Yami with a bored like glance, "Look, busta, I'm not lookin' for trouble. I'm a pretty busy girl. I still got some homework to get across, and I'm in no mood to deal wit' a jerk like you."

"Hoshi!" The older girl, Lillia, scolded a little, but equally surprised.

But none of the two answered, nor paid attention.

The blonde, brown-eyed male scratched his head, looking between the two, "Wha's dere problem?"

"You. That's what." The first-born Kaiba replied.

"I wasn' askin' you!!" Joey growling, before another verbal fight began between him and Seto.

Ryou Bakura shook his head at them, not coming up with anything to stop they're fight.

"You're accusing me of tripping you back in that library, when I was trying to pick up someone's drawings?" Yami continued, his dark purple eyes a blaze with anger at the youngest girl in the room.

"Oh, come on. Not this again!" The 13-year old female sighed heavily as she crossed her arms and rubbed her temples, feeling a headache slowly build itself, "Your still angry about that? Just get over it already!"

"Hoshi. . ." Lillia started with a strange look at the other girl.

Hoshi blinked and looked back at her older friend, studying her expression and the colors that flew across Lillia's silver blue eyes before nodding knowingly, getting the silent message and turning back to a glaring Yami, raising a brow, "Sorry to bust your mean streak, lolo, but I'd have to decline. You need to learn to calm down so you can concentrate if we ever do have a Duel. Until then, cool your hot head off! I'd love to stay and chat and maybe duel you, but maybe after you stop being such a creep!"

And with that, Hoshi went off.

Lillia turned to look at all of them, "Well. . .I'm not sure what that was all about, but I'll see if I can think up of anything for us to do today if you all are feeling up to it."

~*~

Hoshi sighed and closed the door to her room with a silent click. At that sound, her scattered Duel Monster cards on the floor suddenly trembled and moved, floating in the air and flew over to her, twirling and dancing in the above the ground.

The girl blinked at them and spoke in a hushed tone, "What's wrong? Is that what your asking?"

The cards just came in a straight line and formed a circle around Hoshi, spinning around and around before coming to rest in a neat pile on her open hands now turning back to they're isolated state once again.

"He just made me mad. Sorry if I worried you guys. If I should Duel that hotheaded jerk, we're going to have to loose early. I need to return what isn't mine, alright?" She smiled a little.

Her cards just moved a little and Hoshi nodded,

"Thank you."

~*~

"Yami, what's wrong with you today?" Yugi asked in full concern as he followed Yami down through the hallways and into the small library.

The former King of Games kept silent with his hands stuffed loosely in his pockets, his lips in a tight firm line of both frustration and confusion. He seemingly didn't hear his other half as his mind was in a total mess of stirring thoughts and invisible memories that he tried to find. After long quiet moments did Yami stop in his stiff stride and turned around to look at Yugi with a softening gaze at the innocent eyes,

". . .I don't know, abiou. I just suddenly couldn't contain my fury and anxiety when I saw her again."

"You mean you already met Ms. Hoshi?" Yugi blinked.

"We actually didn't get off to a good start," Yami replied as he pulled out a chair from one of the wooden tables and sat down, "It was just an accident between her and me in here. I guess both of us misunderstood what we expressed in our actions."

The younger boy propped down in the seat next to him, "Maybe you should apologize and talk to Ms. Hoshi, that way you both can straighten things out."

"I might. . .but for some reason, I don't like her."

"Why?"

Yami shrugged and looked out the window, watching the dark green leaves twist, twirl from they're trees and fly through the mid-summer wind as the sun shined brightly in the clear blue skies outside, "I don't know. I just don't. And something tells me that I know her from some where. . ."

~*~

Joey scratched his head as he looked around at the remaining bodies in the living room, "Hah, I dun get it. Di' ev'rybody get up on da wrong side of da bed?"

Lillia blinked at his accent, "I didn't know Japan had people who spoke Pigeon. . ."

At that, Seto smirked and glanced at the blonde teen, "Maybe the toy dog is related to one."

"I ain't no friggin' Pigeon, ya creep!!" Joey yelled, baring his fists.

"Hadn't intended on thinking you were one. . .but it's a thought."

"If you don't mind me asking, Ms. Lillia, just what is Pigeon?" The brown haired young woman, Serenity asked, trying to ignore the tension between her brother and the elder Kaiba.

"It's more of a local slang that most of the people of the Hawaiian Islands use. Something we picked up over the long years. I hadn't been here all my life, but Hoshi has. She should know more than me." Then checks down at her watch and then looked outside the window before looking back at them, "It's still sunny out there, and almost mid-day, so what do you say we go to the beach?"

At that, the older Wheeler broke away his staring contest with Seto and jerked his head up in her direction,

"Did someone say beach?"

"No, someone said 'fetch'." Mai replied flatly, her arms crossed over her usual outfit as she looked over at him with passive purple violet eyes, but Serenity merrily laughed and lightened the heavy atmosphere as her eyes danced with happiness and excitement, "Yeah, let's go! I've been wanting to see the beach since I was little!!"

"Joey told us about that," Téa nodded with a smile and then looked back at Lillia, "That's a great idea!"

Mokuba sweat dropped as he tried to keep his older brother from killing Joey, "Uh heh, yeah, please! I think we need a lot more space between Joey and my big brother than this!"

"Sure! We'll leave in say. . .about a good 15 minutes. That sounds long enough?" Lillia asked.

"A'right, I'll go an' get Yugi and Yami then an' tell them about it." Ryou said and nodded before going off.

"Well then, let's all get going!"

~*~

The reddish brown haired Hoshi looked up from her drawing table next to her window at a knock on her door, covering her half finished pencil drawing since her mind had wandered, only making her end up trace the Eye of Ra from her unconscious mind, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Lillia. Can I come in?"

The young girl blinked then stretched, "Sure!"

Lillia came in quietly, dressed in a loose white t-shirt and a black and white hibiscus surf shorts that reached half way to her knees, her auburn hair tied back in a ponytail as her blue eyes with silver flecks looked at her, "Hey, Hoshi, we're all goin' to Waikiki beach. Wanna come?"

"I guess so. It's better than just sitting here and staring. But then again, staring is kinda fun for me. I'll be down in a minute. I just need to get a few things." Hoshi answered back with a small smile, leaning back in her chair so she can fully stretch her arms.

"Don't take too long now. I don't think Wheeler and Kaiba can stand being this close to each other any more. We'll be down stairs. See ya then!" Lillia smiled back and nodded before going out and began closing the door before she popped her head back in, her eyes darkened a bit as her voice lowered to a mellow tone, ". . .I'll also want to talk to you later about today when you came back. It doesn't seem like you got off to a good start with the Pharaoh."

The other girl sighed and lowered her gaze and nodded, "I know. . .but I couldn't help it."

"Don't worry. We'll talk after all this. Just spend time with Ms. Téa and have fun, alright?" Then the door finally closed before another word could be said, the faint squeaking of her white slippers drifting away as she went down the hallway.

Hoshi sighed again and shook her head before picking up her deck of Duel Monsters, "Come on, my friends. I'm not leaving you behind." She said as she smiled softly when the cards glowed faintly in her hand. Then she placed them in a protective white case made especially for them and then gathered some other things in a bag and then changed into dark blue jeans and a big red plain shirt.

"Nope. Not plannin' on swimin' today." The brown-eyed girl said to herself quietly before she grabbed her dark navy blue cap, pulling her eye length bangs back and slightly shoved the hat on her head. Her brown eyes then trailed to her drawing and raised a brow, shaking her head and opened her door, "I have a weird sense of art."

Then the room became quiet as she went downstairs, not noticing her window suddenly unlocked and opened slowly. . .

~*~

"What's taking that girl so long. . ." Yami gruffly said under his breath, still feeling agitated from they're earlier encounters in the library and then the introduction, fire still burning inside him as he crossed his arms over a light beige colored collared shirt, the last few buttons at the top remained open because of the heat, and they lazily hung over his faded blue jeans.

Yugi sighed and shook his head, dressed in an almost identical state of his other half, only with black swim shorts and black slippers, "Yami. . ."

"I would agree," Seto started, fixing his white t-shirt a bit.

"Seto!" Mokuba cried, still clothed in his light gray shirt with his white pants that had two black strips on them, but he also carried a bag full of toys for him to take on the trip.

"This is why I'm happy to have a brother and not a sister because women take so long to just get ready for even going out." The blue-eyed Kaiba smirked before he ducked from the various things Téa, Serenity, and Mai threw at him.

"Hey, lay off, Kaiba! What would you know! We don't take THAT long as you MEN think!!" The blonde young woman retorted with her fists clenched, a few veins popping out on her head as she glared at him. Mai was dressed in a purple-bluish swimming shorts and a light blue long worn out shirt, her hair in it's usual style with slender dark sunglasses resting on top her head.

"The nerve of him!" Serenity put in, glaring with the same fiery passion as Mai. She was also dressed in a similar fasion like Mai, only she wore a button down white collared shirt with the sleeves rolled up to her elbows, and she also had a pair of very light shaded pink slippers.

Téa then smirked, brushing a strand of brown hair away from her blue eyes. She only wore a long white shirt that reached to her mid-thighs, leaving the rest of her pale skin uncovered. She then spoke with sarcasm, "Maybe that's why Kaiba can't get a date. He has such a way with words."

This earned many snickers from around the room and Joey laughed out loud and put his hands on his knees to steady himself, "Good one, Téa! Dat's rich!"

Ryou just idly stood on the side next to Lillia against the wall, a good distance away from them as he nervously watched Seto start to silently approach the blonde Wheeler with his hands bared, "I think. . .I should stay out of this one. . ."

"A wise choice. . .I don't know how you guys can stand those two. It's only been a few hours, and already I want to strangle both of them." Lillia sighed heavily and rubbed her temples, "And I have to deal with this for a month. . .someone shoot me!"

Hoshi sweat dropped as she stood half way down the stairs, looking on at the situation with a brow raised, "Well, it's looks like everyone's having so much fun. It's almost a shame that we have to leave."

Yami looked up at her and glared, "It's about time you got down here. What did you do, fall out the window?"

"Yami!" Yugi scolded, but of course he wasn't heard.

"Tch, you wish, Spike Boy." She shot back, rolling her eyes.

"Spike Boy?!"

Hoshi then smirked, "There are a lot more pet names I can give you. . ."

"What is your problem!"

"You, of course, or are you blind, Hair Freak."

"Hair Freak!?"

"Or I could just name you Volcano Top. . ."

"CAN WE PLEASE GO NOW?!?!" Lillia shouted at the top of her lungs that made the walls shake and blew everyone over on the ground. There was a long period of silence before she coughed behind a hand and then smiled triumphantly, "Good. Now let's go!" Then she grabbed a large bag and put it on her shoulder before marching out.

Slowly and with hesitance, Tristen slowly stood with several sweat drops, "She's scary. . ."

"No kiddin'. . .she's even scaria dan creepy Kaiba here." Joey agreed as he got up with the rest of them.

"Well, that's what you guys get for arguing like that," Mai glared at the boys, "And you are to blaim."

"And what's dat sappose ta mean!?"

"You know very well what she means, puppy. Your master is blaiming you, so be a good little doggie and apologize." Seto smirked, adjusting his hold on another bag full of Mokuba's toys.

"What was dat, ya stupid snotty, high an' mighty son of a-"

"HEADS WILL START ROLLING IF YOU ALL DON'T GET YOUR BUTTS IN THIS VAN, RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!" Was Lillia last warning.

"Yes, ma'am!" Téa nodded and glared at Joey, Seto, and Tristen when the girls along with Ryou, Yugi, and Yami began taking off outside, "You heard Ms. Lillia, MOVE IT!!"

All three straightened in fear and nodded before following quickly after everyone.

Téa smirked and then looked over at a stunned Hoshi who still half sat/lay down on the blue carpeted stairs, "Comin'?"

Hoshi then blinked back to reality, "Huh?" Then she shook off her shock and readjusted her cap before nodding with a smile, "Yeah, you go on ahead, Téa. I just need to lock things up."

"Okay!" Then the older girl was out the door excitement shinning brightly in her crystal blue eyes.

Giggling a bit at her, Hoshi got up and stretched a bit before walking to the door. She then suddenly stopped and all happiness drained completely from her, leaving her shivering a little as a strange and unpleasant feeling over came her. A slightly pale hand stayed on the door's knob as the girl slowly turned her head to look back into the mansion, her brown eyes slightly wide as they darted around everything cautiously, but then she hurried out the doorway and slammed the door closed, locking it quickly and then began running to the silver van with everyone waiting anxiously inside.

'. . .strange. . .what was that all about?' Hoshi thought before she shook her head with a grin, '. . .it probably was nothing. . .' Jumping in the passenger side, she smiled over at Lillia with her eyes closed, apologizing for stalling then looked back at the mansion as they drove away, her eyes clouding over with tension and a little bit of fear, '. . .at least. . .I hope it was nothing. . .'

A dark purple amethyst gaze of Yami and the narrowed crimson eyes of Bakura also watched the mansion with deep thoughts before they looked at each other with an extreme seriousness and nodded.

It was something, but it will have to be dealt with later.

~*~

"Wow, it's crowded here!" Mokuba blinked when they arrived at the beach. It was hustling and bustling with many tourists from around the world lining the sands almost as far as the eye can see. Many children played in the sparkling light blue ocean water while the teens that are out of the long tiring school basked in the bright sun that shinned over-head with the many adults and senior citizens from both the Hawaiian Islands and also the people took they're vacation to stay here in Honolulu, Oahu.

"Welcome to Waikiki beach, peoples. . ." Lillia muttered under her breath as she weaved her way through the traffic, which weren't any different than the beach as they too were inhabited with a lot of cars of various colors and bodies of people of different ethnicities, so it took a long while for the Yugi and the gang to find a parking space. . .about a good half an hour, but they eventually got a spot, which was far away from the over- flowing spots on the beach. They settled on a part of the beach that was much less taken up by tourists.

Everyone then filed out quickly before stretching they're aching limbs from being cramped up together. Joey made that clear, "Man. . .now I know how a sa'dene feels like."

"Hoshi, go take everyone and find a good spot, will ya?" Lillia yawned while she walked to the trunk of the van and opened it to get the stuffs she brought along.

Hoshi nodded and smiled, "Sure!"

"I can't believe we're being led by a girl. . ." Seto muttered under his breath as Mokuba happily bounced beside his older brother, given he had a lot of sugar before they came. . .

****PACK!!!**** went Hoshi's bag over the elder Kaiba's head, rather hard before she pulled on his ear and screamed in it, veins popping out on her head, "AND WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSE TO MEAN, YOU JERK!!!!"

"Come on, Hoshi." Téa sighed with a sweat drop as she got help from Mai, "Trust me, you don't want to waste your energy on him."

Hoshi just twitched before standing on her own, glaring at Seto, whom was rubbing his head before he rubbed his ringing ear.

Yami snickered as he stood by a wary Yugi.

At that, Hoshi snapped her head in his direction, her eyes burning with fire and was going to go forward if Téa and Mai didn't hold her back, so she only flailed her fists at him, "IF YOU GOT SOMETHIN' TA SAY, BUSTER, THEN SAY IT TO MY FACE!!!!"

"Yami, don't taunt her! It's not nice!" The King of Games reincarnation pleaded with a nervous smile and a sweat drop.

"Calm down, Ms. Hoshi. Let's just do what Ms. Lillia asked." Serenity suggested to avoid more arguments when she saw Seto start to advance towards them, though his eyes were set on Hoshi, and they both determined and shouted "KILL".

Hoshi only huffed in anger and stomped off, "Mr. Darkness better watch himself before I REALLY hurt him!!"

Tristen sighed heavily with a sweat drop and heft up his bag, "Well. . .this is going to be one hell of a day. I can hardly wait to see what happens. . ."

"I'll stay here and help Ms. Lillia. You guys go on ahead." Ryou nodded to them before coming over to the van and began to carry a few things for the 19 year-old teen while the rest headed off to where Hoshi would be.

"Hey, Téa?" Yugi called as he walked beside the girl, looking up at her, "Any idea as to why Yami and Ms. Hoshi can't seem to get along?"

Téa blinked and then looked at Hoshi, whom was glaring at him over her shoulders under the shade of her cap, and then Téa looked over at Yami, whom was smirking in amusement at Hoshi. Then Téa turned back to her best friend, "Dunno, Yugi. Did you talk to Yami about it?"

"Yeah, I did. But Yami's so secretive. He said he would apologize, or at least try, to Ms. Hoshi, but it looks like they just end up fighting." Yugi answered with a long sigh before he looked thoughtful, ". . .then Yami said that he feels like he's met her before."

"Yami knows Hoshi?" Téa blinked, trying to listen in on what Yugi saw saying while trying to block out another roughed up shout out between Kaiba and Joey.

"I'm not sure. He just said that he feels he's known her from somewhere, then Yami went quiet."

"Strange. . ."

"HEY! KNOCK IT OFF, YOU TWO!!!" Mai hollered at the top of her lungs so her words would get through to Joey and Seto.

They had finally stopped at a clear spot next to a grove of coconut trees that provided some shade over the place they settled at. There was a green painted picnic table for some of them to sit on while Serenity helped Hoshi lay out some of the blankets on the sand for the rest of the group, which were then quickly occupied by the girls while the guys took the table.

"Wow, this is a beautiful place, Ms. Hoshi!" Serenity marveled as she scanned the scenery. The wide light blue ocean lay out before them in the cloudless day, the blue sky lit up in ablaze as the sun shinned brightly directly above they're heads as soft cool breezes lazily past them by to chase away some of the heat.

"It sure is. I'm surprised this place isn't crowded. It usually is around this time. . ." Hoshi replied with a smile, looking at the churning ocean, enjoying the sound in her ears of the waves crashing on the golden sands, then she blinked and stood up upon hearing a clatter of things from Lillia, "Need help, Lil?"

Lillia shook her head and smiled over to Ryou, who followed behind her with several bags in hand, "Nah. . .I got all the help I need. Thanks, Ryou!"

Ryou nodded and smiled back at her, putting the bags down he carried by the picnic table, "No problem."

"I'm hungry. . ." Was Joey's loud remark as his stomach growled.

"Your always hungry!" Was everyone's reply.

The teen just merrily grinned, "Hey, a guy's gotta eat!"

"I thought you were a pig, recalling back the last time I saw you eat." Mai said as she drew her shirt up over her head to leave her in a pink bikini top and her swimming shorts. This earned a wide stare and a hanging mouth from Joey before Téa spiked a multi colored beach ball in his face, knocking him to the gound.

"Stop drooling, you perv!" Téa shouted.

"Alright, that's enough." Lillia sighed and opened a small ice chest she carried, "I made lunch for everyone," Then looks over at Ryou and points to a light blue bag, "And the drinks are in there."

Hoshi then stretched and then sat back down, "What did ya make, Lil?"

"A few sandwiches and a lot of Musubi."

"What's Mushubi?" Joey asked, getting back up to his seat, dusting off the sand from his shirt and pants.

"You'll see. And it's MUSUBI." Lillia said as she threw him one. It was a block the size of his palm that had a piece of cooked, brown, squarish meat that was molded in by 2 inch white rice covered by a dark green paper thin wrap.

"Guess it wouldn' hurt ta try. . ."

"I'll have a drink for now. Ryou, pass me one." Tristen said, leaning back against the table.

"Sure, Tristen." Ryou said before grabbing a can from the ice chest and then threw it in Tristen's direction, "Hea', catch!"

"Thanks!" Tristen appreciated, catching it before looking at the red can, "Wow, strawberry-guava." Then he opened it and began to drink it.

"Mokuba, are you hungry?" Seto looked to his younger brother, bringing out his laptop to work.

"Nah, I'm gonna go swim!!" The young Kaiba smiled excitedly then sprinted off to the water before anyone could say anything.

Yami looked over at Yugi, "You should follow him, abiou. No telling what will happen."

His other half nodded, "Right."

Téa stood with him and walked towards the shore, "I'll go with you. I want to see how the waters feel."

"Sure!"

They both walked slowly towards the line of the ocean, hearing the waves crash and make a soft pleasant sounds of the scenery, the gentle ocean breeze blowing through they're hair, calming them completely. Téa had to let a smile break through as she looked over everything, faintly hearing Mokuba laughing as he swam in the water.

"This is a nice place, isn't it, Téa?" Yugi quietly asked, watching Mokuba swim out a little further.

"Definitely."

Mokuba laid on his back and looked up at the blue sky as he floated in the water, the small waves acting a little like a gentle rocking crib and with the ocean's lullaby softly singing to him, the young boy closed his eyes and slowly feel asleep.

Something that he shouldn't have done since the currents and waves carried him off to deeper waters with a darker shade of blue, and the waves became more rough and startled the boy awake. Salt water splashed into his face and made Mokuba swallow a large amount of it as he struggled to stay up for air. He flailed his arms in full panic before he was dragged under the surface.

Téa then looked up at a sudden dreaded feeling that over came her, which startled Yugi a bit and he called out to her,

"Téa. . .?"

"Something's wrong. . ." Her voice was a whisper before she gasped, her eyes wide "Where's Mokuba?! Mokuba!!"

"Mokuba!!" Yugi also called out before running to the water until he was knee deep, "Mokuba!" Then he blinked as he saw the young Kaiba surface, far off from where they were, "Téa! He's over there!"

"Mokuba!" The shoulder length brown haired teen called as she ran through the water before swimming towards him, her heart beating in her throat at the same time, but then a strong current pushed her back and kept her at the shore no matter how hard she tried to swim, "I can't get through, Yugi!"

"What's with all the noise. . ." Tristen started before he looked up in the direction of Téa and Yugi, then his eyes trailed over to Mokuba, who was starting to be pummeled by large waves and Tristen bolted up from his seat, "Mokuba's in trouble!!"

At that, Seto's head snapped up and his computer fell in the sand with a flop, "What?! Where is he!?!?"

Mai stood up and pointed in the ocean, "Over there! He's caught in the currents!!"

"How did Mokuba get all the way out there!?" Yami cried, his eyes wide with fear for the little boy's fate.

"You guys should stop gawkin' and do something!" Hoshi glared at them before throwing off her dark navy blue cap and limped a bit on her feet to take off her shoes while she dashed into the water in a blur of her now bright red hair.

"No, Hoshi, don't!! You'll get caught in the under toe!!!" Lillia shouted after her.

"I could care less! I'm not leavin' him out there!!" Was her quick reply before Hoshi dived into the strong current, red shirt, jeans and all and then surfaced before swimming with all her might, successfully breaking through the strong currents, but then she was pushed back by something ramming into her. The girl winced but shook her head and continued forward, finally reaching Mokuba.

". . .M-miss Hoshi. . .!" Mokuba coughed, struggling to stay on the choppy surface.

"Grab on to me, Mokuba!!!" Hoshi said, trying to keep her head up to breath when the boy wrapped his arms around her neck.

"Yes! She's got him!!" Serenity cheered with a relieved smile.

"But they're not out of the woods just yet. . ." Ryou said seriously with his brows furrowed.

"He's right. Hoshi's already tired." Lillia agreed, her eyes darkening over as her hand unconsciously went to her necklace that lay underneath her shirt.

Indeed, Mokuba's rescuer was tired, in fact, exhausted. Hoshi's muscles strained and ached from using so much energy to just swim to the kid, and she struggled to breath herself. To make things worse, she could feel his heart beat frantically against her back as she heard his heavy breathing, which then lead to him swallowing more ocean water, "Mokuba, I need you to calm down! Trust me! You don't want to drink too much of the salt water!"

Then suddenly everything calmed and a freezing terror settled in the pit of Hoshi's stomach as well as Mokuba, and it only worsened when they felt the pull of a current, a very strong pull before a large wave toward over them that was consisted of a deep blue and white. It suspended for a bit and Hoshi took that time to tell Mokuba to take a deep breath as she did the same. Then is happened and the crashed down on the two, followed by several other big waves, dragging them down in the ocean's unknown depths.

"Oh no. . .Mokuba!! Hoshi!!!" Téa cried as everyone gathered beside her, watching in horror and fear, Seto, Téa and Lilia mostly.

The waves then suddenly leveled out just as quickly as the large tall waters formed and it returned to it's once serene blue calmness with the soft faint cool breeze blowing through again. . .only Mokuba and Hoshi were no where to be seen.

To Be Continued. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

~*Brittney a.k.a Hoshi Mizuriu*~

P.S.

Another reason why I was SUPPOSE get this chapter out earlier, was because I wanted to do a July 4th chapter, but I'm sure I can get it out to you all later, right? You all won't be THAT mad at me, will you? If you want to hate me, either send me an email, or put it in review. I'll try to make up for it. Really sorry!!
