CHAPTER 2: Introduction to Powers Unknown

Yai's POV:

I must admit, I was shocked. And who wouldn't be? A character from your favorite anime shows up on your best friend's doorstep? How often does that happen? I was in some sort of daze as I followed Bakura (or should I say Ryou?) into Meg's living room. What the Bwill was going on?!? (A/N: Reference to Magi-Nation there, folks! ^_^)

The British boy seated himself on the couch, looking worried (but slightly amused at our dumbstruck expressions).

"M-may I get you a drink?" Meg asked him in a strangled voice. She looked quite pale.

"Yes, just a Coke if you have one," he answered, and Meg sort of lurched into the kitchen.

I sat on the chair across from Ryou and just stared at him. He looked…strange. He was 3-D, but he was animated. His face wasn't that of a real person's. It was smooth and wrinkle-free, and his nose was pointed. A real, living cartoon!

Meg's POV:

I stood in the kitchen, the Coke can in my trembling hand. I didn't know if I was excited or astounded or something else altogether. What was happening to me was beyond human realization. A fictional person was sitting in my living room…

Taking a deep breath, I walked back to where Yai and Ryou were sitting, inspecting each other (mind out of the gutter, people!). "Here," I mumbled, shoving the coke into the latter's hands and sat on the opposite side of the three-cushion-long couch from him.

"Now I can tell you why I am here." He took a sip of the Coke. "Mmm…This is good. Anyway, the situation is serious."

"What situation?" I interrupted.

"Don't you know?" he said, surprised. "I guess I'll have to explain. In this universe, there are many dimensions invisible to the casual eye. The casual eye, of course, meaning anyone who isn't a dead tomb robber from ancient Egypt sealed in a Millennium Item," he added, a sour look on his face. "My yami told me all this. He managed to open the door to this dimension, so now there's a huge imbalance. Weird people keep popping up, and Marik and Bakura are having a bloody hell of a time getting them back and erasing their memories."

"Why doesn't Bakura just close the door?" Yai piped up. He kept fiddling with the bottom of his shirt, a thing he does only when he's extremely nervous and/or scared.

Ryou sighed. "That's just it. He can't."

Yai and me looked at each other, then back at Ryou. "So what does that have to do with us?" I asked.

"I've been watching you," Ryou said, and I paled. "Not ALL the time," he rushed to assure me. "Just when you go to school and stuff. I've noticed a few things about you two. For instance, Yai here. He is quite intelligent, and I think he could help. And you, Meg," he said, turning to me. I shifted uncomfortably. I don't like to hear what other people think about me. I'm a very shy person, but I don't act like it. "You," he continued, "are very brave and resourceful. I was very impressed by the way you handled that bully the other week." He was referring to about nine days ago, when I helped out a fellow freshman that was being bullied. "You would be a good asset in my little 'rescue team'."

"Why didn't you go to an adult or someone with more influence and stuff?"

"You think they would believe me?" He laughed in my face. "I thought you had some brains in you, Meg. I mean, look at me. I'm a stranger in your world. I come from a whole other dimension, where animated people rule. They'll probably try to run experiments on me. And soon, people from my land will start to come here. What do you think the world will be like when Gundams and psychos with magical powers start walking around?"

"Okay," I assented. "How do we start?"

H: Kewli.

HH: You are not very modest, young grasshopper.

H: Don't call me an insect!

HH: Insect! Insect!

H: *tackles her yami and a fight cloud appears*

Wayne: *holds up a neon sign and Eek plugs it in*

Eek: *reads sign* Please Read&Review.

W: Yup. No flames please. As has been said, they will be used to fuel fires, which will be used to burn pictures of Seto Kaiba because Hera hates him.

Eek: Expect to see Seto torture (or something like it) in later chapters. U^_^
