Small whirring noises awoke Anna,
Anna opened an eye and looked at Yami, who was sleeping on the sofa across from her, he wasn't making the sound she was hearing.
She opened her other eye, sat up and glanced around fearfully.
It was then she noticed the contraption above Yugi, it was a wooden machine with metal legs and a large pointed screw going through the middle and ever so slowly twirling down, towards Yugi's forehead! Anna sprang from the sofa where she had slept not two minutes ago.
"YUGI!" Anna shouted, she dove and knocked it onto its side, getting cut in the process, and unfortunately landing on Yugi.
"Ugh." Yugi moaned opening his eyes.
"Oops.. Sorry Yugi." Anna apologized quickly sitting on her heals, removing herself from his stomach.
"What was the shouting all about, Anna?"
Anna turned to see Yami staring at Yugi and herself.
Anna, quickly pointed to the machine that was on its side.
"It was going to kill Yugi." She stated, obviously shaken.
Yami swung his legs from on the sofa to the ground, he stood and walked over to the machine.
"What's this?" He asked, kneeling to rip off a piece of paper that had been tied to a metal leg,
"It's a note," Yugi observed.
Yami decided to read its contents aloud.


"Hello children,
I would like to congratulate all of you on your first rescue,
you will all die, lucky for Yugi the only talent Anna has is hearing words said or made while she's still asleep.
By the way, I must say, nice save, Anna.
P.S. Wtch1yur2bck:at00T"


"Only talent my foot!" Anna growled, crossing her arms over her chest. "I have plenty of talents!"
Yami and Yugi sweat dropped and decided to not comment on her last statement.
"What's with that P.S. anyway?" Yugi asked.
Yami took a closer look. "It looks like a code,"
"Great! Just what I need!" Anna grumbled throwing her hands up in the air. "A puzzle!"

"Anna, relax," Yugi said slowly, "We'll figure this out."
"Yugi, you would've been killed and your telling me to relax!?" Anna exclaimed, banging her hands down onto the wooden floor, where she was still sitting.
A hand went over Anna's mouth,
"Shhhh," Yami shushed, "We don't want to wake them up." His voice dropped to a whisper.
There was a groan on the other side of the room, "Too late..." It said.
Anna jumped at the sudden voice still being quite shaken; she looked over and noticed the one who had spoken was Ryou, the others slowly sat up.
Anna wanted to mutter that she was sorry for awakening the boys, but after Yami had shushed her she was afraid that if she said something a shadow creature would jump out and snatch her up.

Suddenly the stereo turned on, startling Anna to no end, shuddering at the sudden noise; Anna stood and made her way over to the 'music player'.
She eyed it carefully, and played with the buttons, the music didn't stop.
She kneeled on the floor and pulled out the plug.
Anna was about to stand, when a sudden thump sound echoed through the house, her eyes widened and she ran over clinging to the closet person, who happened to be Bakura.
"Get off me woman!" Bakura exclaimed, trying to wriggle out of her grasp.
Anna just clung tighter to his arm, eyes closed tight.
"If you don't get off--"
Bakura was cut off by a glare from Yami.
"She's just frightened, Bakura." Yugi explained.
"Well, why couldn't she have wrapped onto you or the pharaoh!?"
At the word 'pharaoh' Anna opened her eyes and looked at Bakura in confusion,
"Pharaoh?" She repeated.
Bakura realized his mistake and Yugi tried to cover for him.
"It's because Yami acts kinda like a king..." Yugi tried to explain.
Yami grumbled something under his breath, but nodded is head in agreement.
"What a weird-" Anna was cut off by screaming coming from up stairs.
"Tea!" Yugi and Yami cried out at the same time, making their way quickly up the stairs.
"Tea? Oh! The brunette!" It was then that Anna remembered what almost happened to Yugi. "Wait! This is a big house you'll get lost!" Anna exclaimed, trying to catch up to the two boys and leaving everybody else downstairs to wonder.
