A/N: Hello everyone, let me start again with some thanks.
seguha: Thanks! I like Tea's attitude better this way too. But the way they have it is all right too I suppose.
WingedWanderess: Well, yes, I suppose you are right in a sense. I could write better, and I will try in the future. Thanks for the advice, hope you'll like the rest of my story!
Thanks for those who read my story so far, and more thanks to those who reviewed too! I suppose I shouldn't hope for more reviews though. Oh well, maybe I'll improve along the way.
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! Otherwise I wouldn't be sitting here writing FANfiction!
Chapter Three: Questions
The next day Tea arrived in school early. Yugi and Ryou also arrived early. Tea decided to ask them about their 'good luck charms' again.
"You guys," she began, "Those items are more then just 'good luck charms' aren't they?" Yugi quickly consulted Yami for help.
/What do you think, Yami?/ Yugi asked.
//I don't really know. It seems that she knows a bit about the items. Ask her what she knows about them.// Yami replied.
"Tea," Yugi asked her, "What do you think you know about these?" He pointed to his and Ryou's items.
"There were the shadow games," she said slowly, "And there are seven millennium items. A young and brave pharaoh put an end to the shadow games because they began to get out of hand. He sealed the power into the seven items. It is said that the person to yield all seven will be able to control the world. That looks like the millennium puzzle, and that looks like the millennium ring. The puzzle was said to have the young pharaoh's soul sealed away in it, and in the ring, there is the soul of a tomb robber. That's all I really know about it. Although I do know there is a millennium eye, but I don't really know anything about it."
Yami and Bakura appeared in front of Tea.
"How do you know all that?" Yami asked her. Tea hesitated, thinking for an answer.
"Answer!" Bakura said angrily and impatiently.
"Well, I read about it somewhere a long time ago," Tea said.
"Where?" Yami asked.
"In my father's library," she said. More students suddenly entered, and Yami and Bakura both disappeared back into the items.
/I told you something was a bit strange about her!/ Yugi said.
//Well.// Yami replied.
"Yugi Mouto!" the teacher called. Yugi jerked out of his distracted state.
"What?" he said suddenly.
"Now that Mr. Mouto has decided to join us." the teacher said. The teacher continued on.
*****
It was lunchtime, and Yugi, Ryou, Kaiba, Joey, Tristan, and Tea were eating lunch outdoors, and they were also outside so Yugi and Ryou could ask Tea how she knew about the items. Yugi and Ryou became their Yami's. The minute the tomb robber appeared, he grabbed Tea and pinned her against a tree.
"No one but the owners of the items and their close friends are suppose to know that there are such things as the millennium items," Bakura hissed angrily, "Tell me, how do you know?" Tea twisted around expertly and broke out of his strong grip.
"I went into my father's library, and into a book in which I was not suppose to read. I did it at night, because I was curious. He had always told me that I was never to go into that book, and that if he found out that I had, I would be punished. Of course, he never found out, but I think he did know that I went into it, but he never said anything about it," Tea said. Yami crossed his hands over his chest.
"Who exactly is your father, and where does he live?" Yami asked.
"We lived in California," Tea said. She didn't exactly answer his question. Luckily, the bell rang, so they had to go back inside for their afternoon classes. Tea hurried back inside.
If only I could tell them, she thought sadly.

"Do you guys want to come over today? We could do our homework together," Yugi asked Joey, Tristan, Ryou, Kaiba, and Tea. They all nodded. "Ok. You guys want to go back to your homes first and let your parents know?" They all nodded except for Tea and Kaiba.
"You guys already know that all I have is Mokuba," Kaiba said. They nodded, except for Tea.
"What about you, Tea?" Ryou asked her.
"Me?" she said, "I'm on my own."
"On your own?" Joey repeated, "Where's your parents at then?" Tristan jabbed him in the ribs for asking such a question.
"Well, guess we can meet at your house at 2?" Ryou said. Yugi nodded.
"Kaiba, Tea, if you guys want to come over now you can," Yugi said. They shook their heads.
"I think I'll just go home first." Tea said, sliding away. Kaiba silently followed.
"See you guys later," Yugi said.
*****
Tea arrived back at the apartment after bidding Kaiba goodbye. She went into the bedroom and sat down on the bed. She sighed, thinking about her past.
She crept through the long hallways silently. She past her father's bedroom, and a floorboard squeaked. She froze, listening if her father woke up. Something stirred inside the bedroom, and she dashed to the exit of the large home. She ducked outside; she was free from her home! She wondered where she should go now, and remembered reading something in one of her father's journals about Domino City. She decided that was where she would go.
Tea glanced up at a clock and decided that she would head out. When she got out, she noticed that Kaiba was walking down the street.
"Kaiba!" Tea called, "Wait up!" Kaiba stopped and turned around. Tea ran toward him. It didn't take long, because she was a good runner. "Hi!" Tea said happily. He nodded and gave her a small smile. They walked the rest of the way in silence. Tea opened the door to the game shop.
"Hello?" Tea called. No one answered, but they heard noises from upstairs. "Hey, Kaiba, I think they're-" She was cut off, because another spasm of pain washed over her. Kaiba noted that she glowed gold for a moment, and a golden eye flashed across her forehead. She gasped as the pain increased.
"You can't hide among your little 'friends'," the mysterious voice said. Kaiba and Tea both heard it. The pain in her reached such a high level that she screamed, and collapsed. She would have hit the floor, but Kaiba caught her in his arms. Her scream had got they guys upstairs to come down.
"Kaiba!" Yugi said, "What's wrong?" He saw that Tea was in his arms, exhausted.
"I'll explain later," he said shortly. He carried her upstairs and set her onto the bed.
"I'm fine," Tea said.
"No, you're not," Yugi said. Her eyes flashed dangerously and she sent him a fourth degree of her death glare. The boys looked at her worriedly and backed away. "Ok," Yugi said uneasily, "If you say so."
"You know what, I don't think I really want to stay today." Tea said, "Thanks though. Maybe some other day, ok? I'll be going now." She left the room before anyone could say anything else. The boys heard a door open and close. Then they all turned to Kaiba and began to all speak at once.
"Kaiba, what happened?"
"Kaiba why was she so tired?"
"There's something you're not telling us, Kaiba."
"Did you do something to her?"
"SILENCE!" Kaiba finally yelled, "Now, I don't really know what happened, but I'll tell you what I saw and heard."
A/N: Okee, another chapter. Please review! I love it when people leave a review or e-mail me! Any ideas on what I could do to improve this? Thank you! ~Kari
