Tenshi: (sniff) Hi everybody. (sniff)
Kerra: 0_0 What are you doing over here?! You're sick!
Tenshi: (sniff) I know. But I hate not being able to update and yesterday I saw that someone actually reviewed this so I decided to keep going.
Yami: Well that settles it.
Tenshi: (blows nose) Settles what?
Yami: That you're crazy.
Yugi: Yami!
Yami: What? She is.
Tenshi: He's right. I am crazy.
Kerra: Amen. But Tenshi you shouldn't be doing this. How about I do the writing for this chapter.
Tenshi: Go for it. But on two conditions. 1) Yugi still does the disclaimer.
Kerra: Whatever.
Tenshi: and 2) No setting up little romantic scenes between you and Yami.
Kerra: No fair!
Tenshi: Then I'll just write this myself.
Kerra: Okay! I'll do it.
Tenshi: Thanks. But to just to make sure- Yugi! You're in charge of making sure that Kerra doesn't screw this up. And I think Yami can make sure there's no romance scenes.
Kerra: Hey!
Yugi &Yami: Okay!
Tenshi: Okay. Well, see ya later everybody! (goes to go lay down)
Kerra: Oh, boy. Okay everybody, I'm gonna give this my best shot. Now, Yugi, can you please just do the disclaimer before I change my mind?
Yugi: It's not the same without Tenshi, but okay. Disclaimer: Kazuki Takahashi owns Yugioh! and it's characters. Not Tenshi. So, please do not sue. Thank you.
Kerra: Okay, wish me luck with this! Here's the third chapter!
Chapter Four: Beginning of a Meeting and Family Grudges
"You know, it's a good thing that I'm right down the street from Yugi," Tenshi thought aloud. "It takes less time to get there." Readjusting her yami's position on her back (AN: think piggyback), Tenshi quickly looked both ways, then jogged across the street. Rearranging her hold, Tenshi quickly walked over to the Turtle Game Shop.
Tenshi had always thought it fitting that her friend, who was absolutely crazy about games, lived right above the game shop. She had only moved to Domino from L.A only a year after Battle City had ended. Being a fan of riddles and games herself, she and Yugi had instantly bonded. But when she had found out the shorter boy also possessed a yami, she had been ecstatic. Being a fan of the super-natural, Tenshi had taken to the whole ancient-pharaoh news a bit better then Yugi's friends had. Then, when Yugi's mom had come back for a short break, (AN: Yugi: My mom is in here! I didn't know that! Kerra: Technically, neither does Tenshi. Yami: She's going to kill you. Kerra: ^_^) Tenshi had come up with the perfect cover for Yugi when he had to go duel the Shadow Gang. (AN: Yami: I don't remember it being called that. Kerra: It's the gang that you guys faced after Battle City. So, I can't remember what's it's called. Sue me. Yugi: Please don't.) Tenshi might act very protective of Yugi, but the truth was she was a year younger and when things got tough, she often got hysterical. So, it was often up to Yugi to calm her down. (AN: Yugi: Ain't that the truth. Kerra: Will you guys cut it out with the AN!!)
Like today, for example.
Kerra had been throwing a fit and if that wasn't enough, she had suddenly collapsed. Freaked out, Tenshi had instantly turned to Yugi. It was strange that no matter what the boy went through, nothing seemed to faze him. He was always the kind, innocent boy and she just loved him for it. (AN: Kerra: Tenshi would have wanted to remind you that she does not think of Yugi in a romantic way.) She smiled. It was some guy who could up with a hysterical teenage girl on the phone.
Finally reaching the game shop, Tenshi pushed the door open with her foot and slid herself and Kerra into the store. The game shop was empty, which was no surprise considering that Grandpa (AN: Kerra: Just so you know, just about EVERYONE calls him "grandpa".) had gone out on a bunch of errands. "Yugi?" Tenshi called out.
"In here, Tenshi!" came the reply from the living room.
Adjusting Kerra, Tenshi walked past the game shop room and into the living room. Yami was lying across the couch, awake, but looked to still be half-asleep and Yugi sat at the end with Yami's feet. Yugi nodded to the chair and Tenshi, gently, set Kerra down. Straightening, she turned to her friend.
"Is he okay?" she asked, cocking her head toward Yami. The spirit didn't even move, his eyes fixed solely on Yugi.
Yugi nodded. "Technically, he's alright, but I think he's still kind of stunned. Whatever dream he had, had a deep effect on him." The teenager shot another worried glance at the spirit, who tried to smile, but ended up looking sleepier.
"At least he's awake," Tenshi looked the spirit over. He did seem to be okay, but he looked just as haunted as Kerra. She shivered. There was nothing she knew of that had the power to have a chained reaction on yamis and it scared her to think that there was a giant dark force out there. Adjusting Kerra so that the spirit sat on her lap, Tenshi snuggled into the chair.
"Is Ryou coming?" Yugi asked.
"He said he'd be over as soon as he could, but I think it might take awhile," Tenshi replied. "He kind of has to figure out how he's gonna get Bakura over here. And don't ask about Malik. I called but no one picked up."
"Hmm," Yugi said, glancing at his yami. Though he looked calm, Tenshi could tell that Yugi was just as worried about his yami as Tenshi was about Kerra. The boy got up and announced that he was going to get some blankets. In a short while, Yugi had come back with two blankets, handing one to Tenshi and lovingly covered his yami with the other. So, the four friends patiently waited for the two others to come over.

"Lance, I am SO glad you came back," Mokuba hugged his older cousin one more time. He couldn't believe the boy had come back.
"Well, I'm glad to finally be back," Lance laughed.
Mokuba quickly grabbed the boy by the wrist and dragged him down the hall. How long had it been since he had seen his only cousin? Three? Four? Five? No, seven years it had been. Wow. They had a lot to catch up on.
"Big brother says he's not going to make it for dinner," Mokuba explained, still pulling the boy along. "Watch your step," he warned as they charged down the steps. "But," he continued. "Seto says that he'll take the three of us to a movie tomorrow (AN: Kerra: 0_0 Can anyone imagine Kaiba going to a movie? Yugi & Yami: Nope.) and then he'll show you around town!"
"That sounds great!" Lance said, almost tripping over a step. "Domino sure has changed since the last time I've been here. And you're living conditions aren't too shabby." They reached the bottom of the stairs and Lance pretended to critically survey his surroundings, making Mokuba laugh.
Pulling on the boy's sleeve, the two made their way into the living room. Lance made an impressed whistle at the sight of all the expensive things his cousin had bought. "Looks like Seto's been doin' pretty good in business," he complimented. He turned to Mokuba. "Is he still dueling?"
"Yeah," was the reply.
Lance smirked, "Still number one, huh?"
Pause. "Um, not quite."
Lance was confused. "Seto got beat?"
"Yeah," Mokuba hesitantly answered. He knew Lance was as proud of Kaiba's dueling skills as he was. Even though the boy didn't duel, he was still proud of his older cousin's talents.
Lance frowned. He had heard rumors back in America that Seto Kaiba had gotten beat, but he hadn't believed them. After all, who could have the skills to beat his cousin? He voiced the question.
Reluctantly, Mokuba explained all about his older brother's duel with Yugi. But he continued on to say that now Yugi was their friend and though there was still fierce competition, there was no ill feeling between the two. Mokuba, however, had wisely left out that though Kaiba did (in his own way) consider himself Yugi's friend; it was the boy's Yami that was the source of the rivalry. But, the boy had figured not to go into that.
"Hmm," Lance looked thoughtful. His mouth was set in a firm frown and his eyes were hard.
"Um," Mokuba searched for a way to change the subject. "You sure took a long time to unpack? Did you fall asleep again?" He was only teasing, for it was well known that Lance could fall asleep just about anywhere.
Instantly, the frown was gone and Lance laughed. Scratching himself, Lance said sheepishly, "Yeah, you know me, Mokuba. Once I fall asleep, it takes a while for me to wake up." The two laughed awhile before Lance asked, "So, what are we doing for dinner?"
"Pizza!" Mokuba cheered.
"My favorite!" Lance licked his lips. "Race you to the couch!" And the race was on!
(AN: Kerra: MUST. HIT. WITH. FRYING PAN! Yugi: (holds onto Kerra) No! No ruining the story! Lance has to stay alive! Kerra: Pooey. :P)
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ *
The bell rang.
"Hello?" Ryou's voice cried out.
"We're over here!" Yugi and Tenshi called out.
There was a bunch of moans and groans and then suddenly there was Ryou dragging an unconscious Bakura on the floor. Yugi got up and together the two placed the yami across the other couch.
Tenshi stared wide-eyed at the white-haired boy. "Did you drag him over here?"
Wiping the sweat off his brow, Ryou shook his head. "Not exactly."
Tenshi was still gaping at him. "Well, then how did you get over here?"
The boy suddenly blushed and looked over at Yugi, who had taken back his spot by Yami's feet. "That reminds me," Ryou said, sitting on one end of the couch. "That wagon in the front is mine."
The two other hikaris stared at him making the poor boy blush scarlet. Then, the two burst out laughing.
"You got Bakura-" Tenshi laughed.
"Who doesn't like to be embarrassed in any way," Yugi interjected.
"-here in a little red wagon!" Tenshi was laughing hard, as was Yugi.
Admitting that it was a little silly, Ryou started to laugh too.
After they calmed down, the three were silent with two unconscious yams and one slightly conscious yami.
"Now what?" Tenshi asked. Yugi and Ryou didn't answer.
Fin*
Kerra: I know that chapter sucked, but I'm new at this so give me a break.
Yami: She seriously doesn't know what she's doing.
Kerra: (sigh) -_- He's right. I don't. How does Tenshi do this?
Yugi: (shrugs) Beats us.
Kerra: Oh well. Please review. It would Tenshi feel better. Until next time C'ya.
