As Jessica slowly came back to life, she didn't feel the need to open her eyes at all. She knew where she was, she didn't have to see it again, and only seeing it would remind her at how stupid she could be. But as she continued to wake, she felt different, like she was in a different place now.
Maybe I'm no longer where I was before. Maybe it was all a bad dream she thought. With a shred of hope inside her, she slowly opened her eyes to the new place, where she laid.
At first she thought she was home, but after taking a quick look around, she knew she was in a room, just wasn't hers. The only good thing she could find from all of this was that she wasn't in that cold and damp room, with those rats and whatever lived down there.
She slowly sat up, swinging her legs to the side. The room she was in was small and dark so she couldn't really make out what was in the bedroom. The bed she now sat on was rather large for her small body, there was a dresser on the far right of the room and in a corner was a small chair.
Jessica got up from the bed and walked up to the door. Before opening it though she leaned her ear on the door, just to make sure that nobody was around. When hearing nothing she went for the doorknob and turned the handle. . .
The four of them followed Bakura into the woods. At first the woods ha a clear path, and they could see rather well, but as they continued to walk on, the path slowly disappeared making them walk between trees and bushes.
"Oh this is just ridiculous! I hate this!" Kaiba snapped loudly, a tree branch had slapped him across the face.
"And you think I'm not?" Joey yelled back He hated his much as Kaiba did.
"I wasn't talking to you, Mutt" Kaiba smirked.
"SHUT UP" Joey screamed, ready to fight if Kaiba continued.
"Will you both shut up?" Bakura hissed. He was getting irritated. First he loses a duel to a stuck up ex- pharaoh, and now he has to help them find their little friend? What is this world coming too? "Why do you want to help this girl anyway?" asked Bakura. Ishizu then explained about Jessica and her millennium item, and what it does and why her brother wanted her. The others though were getting annoyed, they had already heard this story three times and they didn't want to hear it again!
Bakura listened to Ishizu till she was finished her story. When she was done a thought struck Bakura. He could lead these pathetic fouls to the girl and when their back was turned, he could just use her to get the items, making his quest a lot easier then it was right now.
As they continued their walk, the trees started to cover the sky, leaving them in complete darkness. They stood there for a while in complete silence.
"Ummm are we almost there yet?" asked a cold and scared Joey.
"Pathetic" Kaiba growled quietly to himself. Joey not hearing this waited for the others to answer him.
"Yes were almost there, you baby, seriously why did you even bother on coming?" Bakura hissed at him.
Joey would of answered but he was interrupted.
"How do you know where were going? We have no more light," Yami said waving his hands in the air. He tried to keep quiet while they were walking, he knew Bakura was pissed off, and he didn't feel like angering him any more then he had already had from their previous duel.
"If you would wait a minute, then I'd make some light" Bakura said. They waited silently and then out of nowhere, light came from his millennium ring.
"Can mine do that?" asked Yami.
"I wouldn't know now would I? I never had the puzzle before" Bakura growled lightly. Saying those words only reminded him of the many ways he had failed to get that damn puzzle. But that will all change soon enough he snickered quietly to himself.
"Oh. . . " Yami said trailing off. The light from Bakura's ring shined brightly around them as they continued their way to find Jessica. Little did they know a trader (Bakura) walked amongst them.
They walked for at least another fifteen minutes before arriving to a dark cave. "I'm not going in there..." Joey said.
"Well the ring points inside here, so if you want to save your little friend then you'll come inside" Bakura said, the others nodding in agreement.
So ignoring Joey's cries, they entered the dark cave and continued on following the rings path. After awhile though they came to another path, one is leading to the left, the other to the right.
Bakura rolled his eyes at Marik's pathetic attempt to not be found as he watched the ring point to the left, making them walk on. They walked on for a shorter amount of time but like before coming to another path, and again pointing to the left.
After passing through three more paths, hoping this would soon end, they were getting quite annoyed.
"Who goes there?" cried a deep voice at the end of the room, not afraid they walked up to find to men guarding a door.
"Move aside if you know what's good for you" Bakura threatened.
"No, our master told us to let no one in, and we only listen to him" the man on the right said. Bakura rolled his eyes yet again. He then pulled out his deck, and shuffled through them till he found the card that he desired.
He pulled out the card grinning evilly. "Then I'll get rid of you, man eating-bug get rid of them" he grinned. The bug slowly came out of the card and walked towards the two men at the door.
"C-c-c-call it off" the man stuttered. Of course being Bakura, he did nothing but laugh insanely as he watched the men being eaten.
"That was freaky. . .' Joey trailed off. Bakura ignored Joey's comment, and summoned his monster back in its card and then opened the door. . .
