I'm really happy! England just won the Rugby World Cup against Australia! Sorry Australia, I have nothing against you and you put up a really good fight (Johnny Wilkinson scored in the last minute - only 30 seconds to go) and played really well. That was a great game to watch. I know I'm a girl but girls like rugby, lots of shirts get ripped! ^___~ And Johnny isn't too bad to look at!

Anyway, I'm so happy I decided to update this story! England just needs to win a few more things and then maybe I'll finish it!

I'm very hyper - I've been drinking beer, and it's only 10am, and I feel really sick so I've had medicine. If anything seems weird just correct me. I'm not really thinking straight.

Review replies:

JadedKatrina: I am so sorry for the cliffy, you're not gonna like me by the end of this chapter. (There may be another one) I hate cliff-hangers so I know what you're going through, but it keeps readers interested!

As for your guess, the hooded figure is tall...your guess is tall. And smirks a lot. Could it be? I don't know! Thanks for the review!

Midnights' Yami: As for the chocolate, well I tried to stuff a bar through my disk drive and it kinda got stuck ^___^;; The computer technician came in and told me that apparently you can't send chocolate through a computer, so here some virtual chocolate! *Gives Midnights' Yami virtual chocolate* It's healthier...

And just checking Haku Ishatar reviewed too! *Hugs Haku Ishatar* I just reviewed your story earlier!

Haku Ishatar: Yes, Final Fantasy 10 rocks! I'm playing it for the second time round and now I have all of the hidden Aeons, I'm so happy! *Hugs Anima, Anima looks pissed. Oops.* Anyway I'm glad you like my fic, I love yours! I'll update soon if you do!

To everyone who reviewed thankyou, it's really nice when you get an email saying you have a review!

I haven't been doing the disclaimer every chapter, I forget! Well it's not like you really think I own it or something, right? What, you did? In that case...I don't. If did I'd probably just ruin it! I'll just let Kazuki Takahashi keep it. God bless him for creating such a great thing!

Anyway, enough talking, onto the next chapter!

~*~Slaying the Dreamer~*~

Yugi shot up, not knowing where he was. "Yugi, you're okay!" Yugi's eyes darted around trying to focus. "Where is he?" Jou also looked around. "Where is who?"

Yugi's eyes finally rested on his best friend. "Jounouchi? What are you doing here? Am I dreaming again?" Jou put a hand to his small friends forehead. "Yug, you just woke up. You were dreaming. But this is real now."

Yugi slowly shook his head. "But Yami said-" "Yami? Who's Yami?" Yugi looked up sharply. "What? You've forgotten him already? He's only been gone a month!" "Lie down, Yugi. I think you're ill, I'll go get the nurse."

Jou walked off as Yugi took in the surroundings. Somehow he had been moved from the classroom to the Nurses office. He stared at the wall as thoughts drifted through his mind.

'This is getting weird. Am I dreaming now? Or am I awake. I think I'm awake. I feel awake.'

Jou returned, looking a little nervous. "So, Yugi. Are you feeling okay now?" Yugi smiled sweetly. "Yes. I think I was a bit shaken up from the dream I just had." Jou nodded and sat on the bed. "Tell me about it."

"Well, I've been having these dreams lately. Yami, this boy, is in them, and he tells me that this is a dream, and that when I'm sleeping I'm awake." Jou stared at him. "What?" Yugi sighed. "He says that this is a dream, and that I belong there with him-" "In your dream?" "Right!"

The nurse had been listening the whole time, and now spoke up. "Yugi, have you ever considered therapy? You're not dreaming. This is real, your dreams are just getting a little out of hand. Maybe you should see a doctor he could prescribe you some medication to help with these delusions-"

"They're not delusions! I'm not crazy! Jou, how can you not remember Yami? He was one of your best friends!" Jou smiled sadly and turned to the nurse. "I'm sorry Jou, but you're going to have to return to class. I'm going to phone his Grandfather."

Jou took one last look at his friend and nodded leaving for maths. Yugi sat back, his head spinning. "I'll go call your grandfather." Yugi nodded as the nurse left.

'So, when I'm with Yami it's a dream, and right now is reality. That makes sense.' Yugi smiled, happy that he had worked everything out. He went to get up but felt a sharp pain in his arm. Looking down the upper part of his right sleeve was wet with blood.

'Nani? But I got shot in my dream. How can I be injured here? What's going on? I need to speak with Ryou and Bakura. Maybe they know?'

Yugi left the nurses office, the nurse still hadn't returned. He walked outside to where his friends usually ate lunch. They were all there and very surprised to see him after what Jou had told them.

"Hey, bud, shouldn't you be lying down?" "No, Honda, but thanks anyway. Ryou, can I speak to you?" Ryou looked around, "Um, sure. Do you want to go somewhere else?" Yugi nodded and the two walked over to a bench.

"Something wrong, Yugi?" "Well, yeah. Ryou, do you remember Yami?" Ryou suddenly had a glazed over look, as if he was conversing with his Yami, Bakura. "Yami, Jou told me about him. Gomen, but I don't know anyone of that name."

Yugi just stared, shocked. "What? But, your Yami, Bakura? Does he remember?" Ryou looked confused then worried. "Yugi, what's a Yami? Bakura is my last name." Yugi shook his head.

"No, Bakura, from the millennium ring. Your item. Remember? I have the millennium puzzle. Bakura wanted my item and he used to want to kill me for it. He used to control you. But then my Yami stopped him. And then Yami went away."

"Yugi, Maybe you should go lie down." "No, Ryou. I'm telling the truth. You have to believe me!" At this point Anzu chose to come over. "Yugi, Why don't we take you back to the nurse?"

"Anzu! You remember Yami, right? You always wanted to date him? He looked just like me only a little taller, and his eyes were red. You loved him." Anzu looked thoughtful "Um, you mean Takahito? I used to have a crush on him. I guess he kinda looked like you, only a lot taller."

"No! Not Takahito, Yami! He was...he...oh never mind." Realising that he was getting nowhere fast he ran from the school yard despite his friends calling to him. He just needed to get away from them, he needed some time alone.

Unknown to Yugi, he was being watched very closely by a figure in a long dark coat.

Running for what seemed like hours Yugi stopped in a secluded area in the park. Trees all around him, this was where he came to escape from reality before he had friends. Before he had Yami.

Tears fell down his pale cheeks as he looked into the water. 'Why don't they remember him? Why? His Soulroom!'

Yugi had tried on several occasions to reach Yami through their mindlink, but had never tried to visit his soulroom. Concentrating, Yugi tried to enter his mind. But nothing happened. He tried again. Still nothing.

'But if I can't enter my mind, does that mean I don't have a soulroom. That it's just made up?' "I think I'm going crazy!" Looking up into the sky he noticed that it was getting dark, and was starting to rain.

"No little Yugi. You aren't going crazy. All will be revealed soon." Yugi turned. There was the tall boy, his features still hidden by the hood of the long coat. "Who are you? And how do you know my name?" The boy just smirked.

"We have met." Yugi definitely felt as though he had met this person before, but where? "How did you get from my dream to here?" Again the boy smirked. "How are you sure that this isn't the dream?"

Yugi opened his mouth to speak but the tall boy wasn't finished. "Yami needs you. Go to him." "But how? I don't seem to have control over when I go there."

"All you have to do is dream. Or wake up. The decision is yours." With that said the boy turned and walked off, vanishing into thin air.

"No, wait! What do you mean? How can I choose whether to wake up or go to sleep?" Thoroughly confused Yugi collapsed onto the floor. The rain fell heavily around him.

'Do I wake up, or do I sleep? Does it make a difference? Yami needs me, I have to do something.' With that Yugi fell unconscious.

~*~To Be Continued~*~

*Cough* Yeah. Okay, that was a cliffy. Actually, there was a lot of information in this chapter, it just doesn't make much sense at the moment. Is Yugi dreaming? Is Yugi awake? I'm sorry, I'll update soon, I promise! Reviews always encourage me to update, even if you're just annoyed and want to yell at me for the cliffy ^__^;;

Just press the purple button where it says review, and I will reveal what's happening! Hopefully this chapter wasn't too confusing, but if you need anything cleared up, either review it or e-mail me. (E-mail address on bio page)
