Yami trembled slightly, his eyes filled with disbelief. He stood with his hands braced on the edge of the platform, the picture of the Dark Magician that was still on the field spun in and out of focus. The life point counter spun down to zero. The holograms on the field flickered and cleared away, leaving the field desolate and empty, reflecting his state of mind. He couldn't believe he had just lost.
"Yami," he heard Yugi murmur uncertainly from within the puzzle, "We didn't just lose, did we?"
"Yes, Yugi," he replied, shaking himself out of his trance. "We did lose."
--------- -----------------------------------*Flashback*------------------ ------------------------------
"Once Yugi attacks, he'll win!" Tea said excitedly.
"Yeah!" Joey called. "Com'on Yugi!"
Solomon's eyes narrowed. // Unless she plays what I think she plays. //
Yami smirked. He knew that he would win. He had four monsters on the field, and had just destroyed her only defense. Playing by Battle City rules, he could attack her life points.
Kaiba looked over to where Tammy stood. His gaze traveled uncertainly over her face. Her face was virtually expressionless, save for a strange look she held. He knew from experience what different reactions meant, and from what he saw, there would be a loser in this duel. Only, it was not about to be Tammy.
"Go, Dark Magician!" he commanded. "Attack her life points directly!"
"Not so fast!" she called.
His eyes widened as he saw her flip over her hidden card.
"You didn't forget about my trap card, did you?" she asked him, tauntingly.
He groaned mentally. He did forget. He watched as the hologram lifted up to reveal the card.
"I play Just Deserts!"
// No! // he thought, // With four monsters on the field, I lose two thousand life points. I only have one thousand eight hundred! //
He clenched his fists. // I. . .I lost. . .//

Mai was the first one to realize what had just happened, aside from Yugi, Yami, Tammy, and Kaiba, that was.
"That must be one of the luckiest things I've ever seen. Besides the time Yugi pulled Swords of Revealing Light, that is." She whispered.
Solomon grinned. // I told her it would be useful sometime. //
There was a hum as the platforms lowered. The two of them got off. Hesitatingly, Tammy walked over to where Yami stood.
She smiled slightly. "Great duel, Yugi."
He looked up, startled. "Yes." He agreed. "It was."
"Hmm. . ." Kaiba said from behind everyone.
They all turned, to see him start to leave.
He smirked. "That was very interesting and all, but I have other things to do." He turned around to look at her. "And Tammy, if you need somewhere to stay. . ."
Without giving her a chance to reply, he turned and walked towards the door. At the doorway, he stopped.
His voice floated back to them. "And Yugi, don't worry. Nobody will know of this from me." Although they were all pretty sure that he was hiding a grin.
Minutes later, Tammy left too, after refusing both a car ride from Mai, and an invitation to the game shop from everyone else.
Unconsciously, she headed towards the park, thumbing through her newly acquired deck all the while. She smiled to herself. The whole deck was based on dragons- she had chosen them herself, although some cards she had added in because of their effects.
She made her way through the park, heading over to an area where there were fewer people, still lost in thought.
// Yugi, or Yami, whichever, said that the game came from ancient Egypt. . . // she thought. An image rose in her mind, an open window, overlooking a sea of golden sand. Had she been there before?
// So many questions. // she thought. // What is going on? Is there more to this than I thought? //
She sighed. Only the future would know what would be in store for her, and for all of them. Or in this case- the past.
Okay. This is not the end of Chapter 5. There is still one more part to it. It's just that I needed to do it in two parts, since the second part doesn't exactly continue where this left off. Actually, it would have been two chapters, if this hadn't been as short as it turned out to be . . . Either way, review this if you want to, or wait till the next part! ^.^
