A lass strolled into Domino High, her eyes appeared almost crystal, her long curly hair rippled though the wind. Even though she looked beautiful, there was a dark secret hidden within her soul. Lingering around for the time when it will reveal it's true form . .

"Class, this is Miss Lila Homes." Yugi's teacher pointed his finger at her. "She's an exchange student from America."

Kaiba sighed, 'Great, another annoying female around' he turned around and the two met eye to eye. Kaiba's normally emotionless face curled up into a smile. 'I knew our paths would cross someday.'

The teacher motioned towards his Kaiba "You can sit next to Seto Kaiba he's . . ." Lila held up her hand, cutting him off.

"I know who you mean." Her heals clapped over to his desk, "So Seto, we meet again."

"I knew we would." He stood and the two embraced.

Throughout this event, the gang was watching, "Is the world ending, or did I just see Seto Kaiba embrace that new girl?" Tea whispered to Joey, who was too speechless to answer her. Yugi decided to be friendly and walked up.

"Ahh, hello." He spoke softly, "I'm Yugi and that's my friends that are being goofballs down there." Yugi pointed at Tristan, Tea, and Joey, who still just stood there staring

"Hello, Yugi." She smiled, "like he said, I'm Lila and well, does anyone duel here?"

"Yes!" Kaiba and Yugi said in chorus.

"Ohh thank God." She sighed, "if I had to give that up maybe I'd die."

"Yeah, maybe you can steal Yugi's title and become the Queen of Games" Joey strolled over, "Or maybe you can kick Kaiba's tail! Beaten by a girl!" Joey began to crack up while both Lilac and Kaiba just stared at him. "Sorry I'm Joey Wheeler and I was 2nd at Duelists Kingdom!!"

"I heard of that moron, Pegasus?" she giggled, "He like sucked people's souls out of bodies or something like that?"

"You can ask Kaiba that question. HE got his soul caught in a card!" Joey began to poke Kaiba, who rolled his eyes.

"Well, it nice seeing you again Seto." She turned around and left.

"Same here my friend," Kaiba whispered under his breath, "same here."

After school, Yugi grasped his backpack and headed home. As he sneakers capped down the street, he began specking to Yami, about her.

'Yami really, I've never seen Kaiba act this way before' Yugi stated to Yami, 'it was almost like he was under some spell or something . . .ether that or they're really good friends. Or he's got a crush on her, which is logical cause she's quite cute'

'Could she have something to do with the figure that you and Joey saw?' Yami inquired.

'Don't know' Yugi sighed. Yugi gazed down the dark alley and gave a jolthed bound backwards. Lila was there, she was pulling on a black cloak and like the last time Yugi gazed down the alley, she vanished into the heavens.
