"Egypt?! Egypt?! What the bloody hell are we doing in Egypt!?" Kaiba half yelled as he stared at the large pyramid in front of him. After gawking for a couple of seconds Kaiba rethought his question "…On second thought, forget what… How! How! How?! How did we get to Egypt?!" Chiya gulped, her eyes fluttering about the desert still somewhat in shock and a little nervous wondering how mad Kaiba was going to get.

After scanning the scenery Kaiba's eyes narrowed on Chiya who had gotten up and was also still looking about them. "Alright, what did you do?" Chiya stared at him wide-eyed "What did I do? What did I do?! I'll have you know I didn't do anything!"

"Oh please! You did do something! You must have! How else would we be here?!"

"I don't know but I assure you-"

"Shut up!"

"Excuse me?!"

"I said --shut up! Cause' if you want me to get us out of this heap of crap you've got us in, I'm going to have to have QUIET!"

Chiya glared at him, then sighing in submission she walked back to Seto and sat down beside him. They weren't an inch apart and Seto felt his heart begin to race, the warmth of her body pulsing close to him. He closed his eyes and exhaled lightly, this woman… she was just soo… his body shuddered and his limbs tingled. He felt a delicate hand on his knee and he jumped back slightly, his eyes flew open and his bleu eyes settled on her.

"What's wrong Seto? Are you ill?" His bleu eyes caught her green ones and he felt he could stay locked like that forever. "Seto?" she reached over and placed a hand on his forehead as if taking his temperature "Are you ok?"

Seto blinked taking his eyes away "No… well, yes… I suppose…" Chiya began to study him and Seto was beginning to feel mighty uncomfortable. To break the discomfort he stood up and said, "We'll never get anywhere just sitting here… I figure that there might be a chance we meet somebody at the pyramid… So let's head in that direction."

"I put my life in your hands… considering the number of dangerous incidents you have lived through…"

He glanced at her, got up then headed in the direction of the pyramid she followed close behind him.

Meanwhile… elsewhere

Yugi's eyes shot open and peered around the dark room, he could barely see anything. Just vague shapes here and there around the room. He closed his eyes again, noticing somewhere in the back of his mind that this was not his room, and he was certainly not lying on a bed.

These thoughts did nothing to shatter his silent discomfort, he was just in too much pain to move, it seemed his whole body throbbed. His muscled ached as if he'd been beaten, his head ached as if it hit a wall… He briefly wondered why… wondered just exactly where he was… Then they came to him like painfully bright flashes off light. The memories…

A red head girl screaming… Kaiba screaming also… somewhere in the distance…

A red head begging him… Kaiba staring at him, his bleu eyes filled with hate.

Then black there was black, Yugi placed his hands on his head, curling into a fetal position. He thought it was over. That the bright flashes were over including the pain the brought with them. But he was wrong…

He was walking home, looking for his grandfather….

Painfully brutal pressure across his back he flew forward

Yami, taking over.

A familiar face… a very familiar face

A fight… Yami trying to defend himself… There were just too many… they were swarming…

A voice… dark and uncaring…

"THE PAST IS SEARCHING TO BE FREE… HISTORY WON'T REPEAT ITSELF."

Yugi's eyes shot open again and he jolted to a seated position. Waves of pain washed through him over and over again, much more painful then when he lay down. He didn't care, he wanted answers.

" Yami? Yami?" Yugi thought to the spirit within his necklace, he touched his chest… there was nothing there… His eyebrows shot up. "Y AMI!!" he screamed. Hurting his own ears in the process.

Somebody lay a hand on his shoulder and Yugi jumped whirling around to face them. His eyebrows shot up again… He couldn't believe it. "Yami?" Yami smiled at him. "Yes Yugi…It's me."

Yugi stared speechless… Yami was beaming at him. Yugi blinked "Yami… W-…Where are we? … No scratch that. How come you're not in my hea- … in the necklace? What's going on?"

Yami nodded "I'm not one hundred percent sure… But I believe that a woman from my past has revived… And with her, memories I've long since forgotten are coming to life… I will tell you all I know…"
