*Here is a long and boiring chapter, and I'm not lying. But the only reason I had to write it is because I needed to in order to get to the next chapter. It may be boring but at least I wrote it and now can forget about it and go one with the next chapter and make you all happy and please you all because that is what I like to and I think I can only do that by typing the next chapter which I think will take time and believe me it might. O.o Okaaaayyy, anyway, I think I should get on with this chappy…but first thing first:

AkxTp~ You don't have to review my other story, I don't mind if you don't. I do like reviews and all, but I don't like to force or tell people to review. I f you have time and do so, that's great, but if you just read the story and liked it and don't have time to review, that's great. I write these stories, because I enjoy writing, so do what you like, and if you just keep reviewing this story I would be happy.

rogue solus~ Will the hikaris and the yamis be able to separate? Well…I can't say yet, but don't worry, you'll know soon or maybe later…

Aikenka~ Of course Malik is going to be in this, but it will take some time until he finally shows his face. Hopefully you're patient.

Umiko Morimoto~ Hmmmm…I don't know if any of your questions are answered in this chapter, and about Yami being evil, well…I might as well tell everyone that, I have given him a break and decided he is going to be the goodie good like he is in the show. What horror! To me anyway. :p

American Sumira~ you don't know how bad I feel. I am soooo sorry, but it will not be a Tea/Seto fic. I feel bad because I can't do that. Again I'm sorry, but this story will be Tea/Bakura. Maybe someday I will write a Tea/Seto story, but…that depends if I can get this done. So again, I'm sorry.

AG the master~ Umm, sad to say, but it is going to take time for Tea and Bakura to get together. I don't think I should have said this, but I wanted you guys to know that. How and when they get together will be a mystery for now. But don't worry, it won't take too long before Tea and Bakura start making out…well…they won't really do that… …never mind.

For the rest of you and all the people above, thank you all for reviewing. Oh and one more thing, I don't think I will be putting Rebecca in this when the time comes. You don't know how much I hate her and if I even write about her, I would probably bash her, and I don't want to do that, since I don't like bashers. So if I bash her, I would be a hypocrite, and right now I don't want people thinking of me that way. I just hope no one was looking forward to having Rebecca in this fic, I just can't stand her. And people think Tea is annoying! -_-::

Anyway Read and Enjoy!!

Chapter 2~ The beginning of so many problems.

Tea couldn't think, she didn't even know what she was doing. Her eyes just kept on staring at one of the new students. Why was it that she couldn't control herself? All she could see were images and hear voices, voices she knew sounded familiar. Voices that repeated that name…Bakura.

"Bakura…Bakura…" always that name and each one were said with different tones. Tea just sat there, trying hard to shake everything off. Her breath began to pick up speed and she just kept on staring. But after awhile, she was able to break free form the flashing images and the voices, but Tea knew that her sickness would soon kick in. She needed to get out of the room immediately. Tea couldn't think of what to do, so she kept on sitting and held head, trying to ignore everything around her, hoping that no one will notice.

But it didn't go unnoticed to Seto, when he turned to look at Tea, he saw that she was trying to control herself. He knew if she didn't take her medicine now, it would take time for her to get back to normal. He thought and thought, trying to find an excuse for Tea to leave the classroom, but none came. He looked at the teacher, who also noticed Tea. Teachers were also people who knew of Tea's illness, and they had tried their best to help her when she needed it. Mr. Tahiishi was also trying to think of way to get her out of the classroom.

Tea didn't think she could hold on any longer, so she did the only thing she could think of, and she felt foolish that she couldn't think about it before. She raised her hand and the teacher looked at her. "Yes, Tea?" Mr. Tahiishi asked.

"May I please use the washroom?" Tea said, her voice shaking a bit.

"Of course," her teacher said and she quickly got up. As she went to the front of the classroom, she walked pass the new students, and when she passed Bakura, she knew it was a mistake. So many images passed before her eyes and now she was having a hard time breathing. Something about him, she knew, affected her. Without thinking, Tea just ran out of the classroom. Her friends Yugi, Joey, and Tristan just looked quizzically at her running form. To them she was acting very odd, but they thought she just needed to get to the washroom quickly.

/Odd…/ Yami B. said as he watched the girl run.

'What is it?' Bakura asked in his mind.

/That girl…she seems so…never mind/ he said, finally shrugging everything off.

'Uh…okay,' Bakura thought simply and he heard the teacher saying to take a seat anywhere..

/Sit behind the girl that just went to the washroom/ Yami B. told him.

'Why?' Bakura asked.

/Because the one that sits two seats away form her holds something I want/ he told him.

'A Millennium Item?'

/Yes, now sit where I told you to sit!/

'Alright,' Bakura took his seat behind Tea's seat and sat there silently, listening to the teacher as he began the lesson. As he paid attention to the teacher, his little friend in the Millennium Ring was thinking about something. Not about the boy with the Millennium Item, but about that girl that went to use the lavatory. Why was it that she reminded him of someone…why did she look so familiar? Could she actually be the one he has longed to see? 'Anzu…she couldn't be,' he thought to himself. He didn't know why he thought she was Anzu; he couldn't even remember what she looked like. Only the names were stuck in his head.

'What would I do if she was Anzu…could I even talk to her? I've been waiting for how many years now?' Yami B. thought to himself, 'don't know how many years it's been, but I know it's been too long. If she is the one, I don't know what I would do…"

Seto looked at where Tea sat; he wondered how she was doing. Well, there was one way to find out, so he raised his hand and waited for the teacher to acknowledge him.

"Yes, Seto?" Mr. Tahiishi said as he looked at Seto.

"I need to make an important call, it's about my work," Seto told him. The teacher knew what he wanted to do.

"Well, considering that you own your own company, I think I can allow you to make this call, but please, do not take too long," Mr. Tahiishi said.

"I won't," Seto said simply and got out of the room.

"Mr. Big Shot can always get out of class," Joey whispered to Yugi, but Yugi just shrugged. He was worried about Tea; it's been a long time since she had left.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Tea was sitting motionless on the floor of the washroom; she had already taken her medication. She didn't want to go back to class just yet, though, mostly because she still felt weird. 'That boy…he seems so familiar…like I know him…but how?' Tea thought. Her eyes began to water. She was scared. It was true that images flashed before, but now, those images that she saw, those voices that she heard, they scared her. Also because, she remembered what she saw and heard.

"Bakura, that's what I heard, that name repeating over and over. And now I remember what I saw, but why was it his face…I don't understand, what does it all mean?" Tea began to sob lightly and quietly. She has always wanted to remember what happens to her during her states of unconsciousness, but now that she remembers, she just felt scared. Scared because she didn't know what they meant, or if they will even affect her. Tea had a feeling that it wouldn't be the last time she would see these images, it seems the new student Bakura had released the barrier that kept her from remembering. 'But why?' was her only thought.

Tea sat there and didn't move. She didn't care if she was missing class; she just wanted to figure out this whole thing. As she sat there, she didn't even hear Seto calling to her form the other end of the door.

"Tea, are you in there? Tea?" Seto opened the door to the girls washroom slightly, "I'm coming in to check if you're in here, so hopefully there aren't any other girls in there." Seto slowly went in, and looked around the washroom. To his luck no one was in there except for his friend. "Thank goodness I found you. Are you alright?"

"I'm scared, Seto," Tea simply told him, not even looking up at him. She was in a way half in reality while the other half stuck in her thoughts.

"Tea, what's wrong?" Seto asked as he took a seat beside her. Tea didn't look at him, and sat there silently, "Tea?"

"I'm scared…"

"Why? Why are you scared?"

"Because I don't know what they mean…" Anzu shed more tears now, and without time to react, she hugged Seto. She held him tight, wanting comfort. Seto hugged her back, trying to calm her. He has never seen her like this; she is always the type to be so happy and cheerful. It hurt to see her like this.

"Tea, tell me everything, alright? I'll try my best to help you, I promise," Seto waited, and not long after, Tea told him everything. When she was done telling him, they both sat silently and thought. Seto didn't know what her images could mean, but surely they were connected to her dreams as well. He didn't understand how something like this could happen to someone like her. It must really be frustrating not knowing why images and dreams appear to you. Seto just wished he could do something, but the only thing he could do was be there for Tea, more than before, and he vowed that he would protect her. Whatever it is that she needs to be protected from, and he knew that he would have to keep an eye on Bakura, from what she told him, he seems to have affected her greatly, he just wondered why?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

*~*Three months later*~*

School was almost over, just one more week and children will be happy. Tea and her friends would be enjoying there summer hanging out and playing duel monsters. Duel Monsters was a very popular game. Joey and Yugi were most into it, Tea like the game but wouldn't spend all her time on it. Even Seto was involved in it. Actually he was the number one duelist in the world and practically owned the best cards. Tea knew what types of cards he had and promised that she would never tell anyone about his three most precious cards, the Blue Eyes White Dragon.

Right now the gang was at school, waiting for the teacher to arrive. In the meantime, Tea and Joey were dueling and as always Tea was winning.

"Come on, Joey, there is nothing you can do to win. So hurry up," Tea said, waiting.

"You never know there might be a move that'll help me win," Joey said, but as always he made the wrong move and lost to Tea.

"Hmm…That makes it 5-0," Tea said as she gathered her cards. Joey just looked on in total grief.

"I thought I could win," Joey was pouting, "Yug, where did I go wrong?" Yugi just scratched his head and thought for a moment as he looked at Joey's deck. As Joey and Yugi were busy talking to each other, Tea got up form where she was sitting and went to sit beside Bakura. Three months ago, she was afraid of going near him because she felt that she would go trough what she did again. But she knew she was just being paranoid and soon enough she became friends with the white haired boy.

"Hey Bakura, what are you doing?" Tea asked and he jumped a little. He wasn't aware she was there, mostly because he was talking to the person in his Millennium Ring.

"Oh, hi Tea…I was just reading this book," Bakura showed the opened book on his desk and she just nodded her head.

"It must be interesting," she said, trying to think of something to say. She was very talkative, but when it came to talking to him it was kind of hard, especially since he slightly felt nervous around her.

Tea was about to say something but Joey interrupted. "Hey Tea, we're all going to Yugi's grandpa's game shop after school, wanna come?" Tea thought for a moment and knew she didn't have much to do after school.

"Sure," she said simply and got up. "I'll talk to you later, Bakura," Tea said to him and left to take her seat as she saw the teacher coming in.

Bakura sighed with relief. He really felt uncomfortable being around Tea, but that was because of Yami B. The spirit in the Millennium Ring had warned Bakura that he was not to get close to Tea. Reason? Bakura had no clue. He could become really good friends with Tea or even her other friends, but with this spirit, it was close to impossible. 'I don't understand why you don't want her to be my friend, Yami, I mean it's not like she can do anything,' he told the spirit.

/I don't care, I just don't want you being to close to her and leave it at that/ Yami B. said.

'Sure, whatever you say,' Bakura told him and sighed. He sat silently and listened to teacher. Yami B. sighed as well, he couldn't tell Bakura anything. He didn't want pity or anything from him. He just wanted the Millennium Items and wanted to know if Tea was Anzu. Once he achieved that he would be happy and have power. 'Power is all I need; love…is for the weak.' Yami B. didn't know whether he believed that, but he would leave it at that.

Tea was looking at Bakura, she felt something different when she sat beside him. What it was, she didn't know. She had a feeling, though, that he had some major role in her dream, like she thought Seto, Joey and Yugi did, but with Bakura it was the same way with Yugi. She felt something within Yugi, and that's how she felt about Bakura. Something about the two made it seem like they shared something in common, but she didn't have one clue what.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The gang was at the Game Shop looking at all the cards the Yugi grandpa had. There were a lot and Joey could barely afford any. Tea just liked the ones that had fairies on them or any type of beautiful pictures. She didn't care about power or defense, hell; she didn't care about the game too much. But she played it whenever she felt like it.

As she kept on looking at the amount of cards on the shelves and around the store, she was listening to Joey trying to get Mr. Mutou to train him to be the best duelist. She couldn't help but laugh at that. Sure, Joey could be good at Duel Monster, but there was no way he could be the best. Joey kept on talking to Mr. Mutou and soon started to beg him. Yugi and Tristan tried to help as well, but in time Mr. Mutou agreed to help the one desperately in need.

Joey was happy and soon began to talk to the guys about anything that came up in his mind.

"Hey gramps do you have any card around here that is very powerful, and I mean very powerful?" Joey asked as he looked around the shop some more.

"As a matter of fact I do," Mr. Mutou said and told the gang to huddle up together. They did just that and looked at what he was holding. It was wooden box and when he opened it, al of them looked on in awe. Tea especially since she knew who else had a card like that.

'The Blue Eyes White Dragon, wow that's so cool. I'll give you thirty bucks for it!" Joey said, showing the money.

"Are you kidding me? This card is worth more than that, besides it's not for sale. This card means too to me, and I would never give it away," Yugi's grandpa said.

"Isn't that what your friend gave you, grandpa?" Yugi asked.

"Yes, it is and I treasure this card. So, sorry Joey, I won't sell it to you," he told him.

"Aww, that card would have been so great in my deck," Joey complained. Tea looked at the card carefully. She had always thought that Seto was the only one who possessed such a card, but now she knew she was wrong. As she kept staring at it, someone had entered the shop. Everyone looked at the door and there stood Seto Kaiba.

"Kaiba? What are you doing here?" Yugi asked as he looked at the CEO.

"Came here to shop, but I doubt I'll find anything useful in this dump," Seto said as he looked around. He finally noticed that Tea was there. He would have to be careful not to make her upset. He knew she didn't like when someone made rude comments about her friends.

"Of course you'll find something useful. But no one would want to sell anything to a jerk like you," Joey commented. Seto just glared and stayed silent. He kept looking around and soon his eyes fell on the BEWD. He gasped and couldn't believe he had found it at last. Quickly, he put the suitcase he was holding n the counter and opened, revealing hundreds of cards. The males were impressed at the amount of cards, but Tea wasn't since she already saw them.

"I'll give you all of these cards for that one," Seto said pointing at the card.

"I'm sorry, this card is not for sell," Mr. Mutou told him.

"What? Surely I can buy it. Just name a price and I know I will be able to afford it," Seto told him.

"I'm sure you would, but this card means too much to me. I'm sorry but it's not for sale," Seto just growled and closed his suitcase.

"Fine," was all he said as he walked away, "but I will get that card." Seto then left the store and everyone looked at him strangely. Tea was worried; she hoped that he wasn't going to try something foolish. 'You better not be, Seto,' she thought, but knowing him, Seto would get his way.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Seto was kneeling silently on the ground where he and Yugi Mutou dueled. The result of the duel was shocking and Seto still has not gone over it. He had lost to Yugi and it would have been a sure win for him if Yugi didn't have Exodia. Exodia, the monster that is undefeatable and it was used against his BEWD. He lost and now he was left shattered, because not only did he loose the duel, he lost a part of himself. He was confused and wondered about what Yugi told him, something about the heart of the cards…whatever it was, he didn't know whether he could ever understand it. He was lost and just sat there, wondering what to do next.

Tea watched Seto in the distance for a while. She knew this defeat had shattered his spirit and also a bit more. She really wanted to yell at him first, but she knew he was punished enough. She just couldn't believe how Seto acted. First he kidnapped Yugi's grandpa, then he dueled him, practically harming the old man, ripped the BEWD, which meant so much to Yugi's grandpa, and finally he dueled Yugi. Everything Seto did made Tea upset, but she knew she couldn't stay angry with him. It was the way Seto acted and by now she would have gotten used to it.

Sighing, she walked up to Kaiba, and when she reached him, she hugged him from behind. Right now, she knew he needed some comforting and that's practically all she is going to give him.

"I thought you would be mad at me," Seto said, not moving at all.

"I was…but I know your loss is bad enough," she told him. Seto looked down at the ground, he really didn't know what to say or do.

"I don't understand how I could have lost…I'm sorry Tea. I know what I did was stupid, but I had to do it. I just had to," Seto explained.

"No, you really didn't have to, but it was a choice you made, and, well, I'm not too happy about it, but at least you learned something," Tea said as she let him go and stood up.

"Yeah, I learned Yugi's deck, so next time I face him, I'll be prepared," Seto said as he, too, got up. Tea looked at him a bit disappointingly.

"Seto! That's not what I meant," Seto looked at her and just smirked.

"Whatever, I just know I have to prepare myself to face him again," he said, "by the way, are you alright? You seemed to have been going through a trance of yours when you and the others were here before the duel. Was something wrong?"

"I don't know what it was, but you don't need to worry, I took my medication and I was alright," she partially lied. When she and her friends arrived at Kaiba Corp. everything was fine until Yugi somehow changed. She didn't think anyone realized, but something about Yugi had caused her to see more imagery. This time, she remembered, and she saw Yugi, well, someone that looked like Yugi. But it wasn't something she would expect to see or hear…what she saw and heard was almost terrifying. The images passed quickly, so of course she could understand them, and she didn't understand why she heard screams…and she wondered who was screaming.

"Tea? Tea are you there?" Seto asked as he waved his hand in front of her face. She snapped out of her thoughts and looked at him and smiled.

"Sorry, I was just thinking," she told him and then decided she should leave. So she said goodbye to Seto and left for home.

Tea always thought that some day her dream and her illness would go away. But how everything is going, she doubted it. There were so many questions and no answers. Why was it that it was all happening to her? Why is it she couldn't understand any of this? In a way Tea felt scared and for some reason she felt that her problems are going to get worse.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Tea, Yugi, Joey, and Tristan sat in the living room of Yugi's home watching television. They were watching a duel match between a guy name Rex and another named Weevil. She thought it was pretty boring, but Joey refused to change the channel. Tea sighed and kept on watching, while Joey kept on yelling how awesome those combos or duel monsters were. It seemed everything excited him.

"Joey calm down, and sit, you're blocking the T.V.," Yugi complained.

"Oh, sorry Yug," Joey apologized and sat down, but he still wasn't quiet. After a few more minutes, the duel was finally over and at that time Mr. Mutou came in with a box. "Oh my gosh, gramps, is that for me! Thank you!" Joey reached out his hands to get the box, but Mr. Mutou moved it out of his reach.

"This is a package for Yugi, not you," he told him. Joey just frowned.

"A package for me? I wonder who it's from?" Yugi wondered as he looked at it. He then opened it and there revealed a video tape, a glove and two star chips.

"Huh, what is all this?" Tristan asked, but no one knew.

"Put in the tape Yugi, it probably will explain everything," Tea said and Yugi nodded his head. When he put in the video, a man known as Pegasus appeared. Everyone was shocked because they knew he was a famous person and they wondered why he was sending something to Yugi. Pegasus was now talking, saying something about a tournament, and when Tea and the others just watched the tape, they were shocked at what he said.

"Now Yugi Mutou, you have been invited to participate in this tournament, but there is one thing, you must enter, if you lose the duel against me," everyone looked confused, how did he want to duel him. "So let's begin…" Now everyone thought he was crazy, how in the world were they going to duel? As if there thoughts were answered, something was happening. All around them it went dark; everyone except for Yugi became motionless. Yugi was terrified.

"What have you done to them?" he yelled at Pegasus. Pegasus just chuckled and explained everything to Yugi. Unknown to them, Tea was listening, how she was still conscious she didn't know. But she knew it wouldn't last, she was feeling light headed and could feel darkness try to take over. She knew she couldn't hold on much longer, and before she fell into slumber, she saw Yugi changed again…she knew he was different. But that was no longer a concern, since she fell into darkness.

Tea felt a little light headed, and she slowly opened her eyes. She could hear yelling, someone calling out to someone. "Bakura?" she tried to say, she felt she was dreaming, but soon she was back in reality. Tea eyes shut opened and looked around. She now remembered what happened, there was Pegasus and Yugi, they decided to duel, and something happened to her and the others. Tea looked around and saw that Yugi was yelling for his grandpa, something about 'Give him back.' For some reason Tea had a hunch on what was going on, and couldn't help but feel that soon she and her friends would embark on an adventure that would not only be to save someone, but help Tea understand herself. She had a feeling it will now all start to make sense and maybe soon, she can finally live normally.

*Yippee, I'm done this chapter! I know, I know, it was boring, but I had to get that out of the way. Oy, I feel like a lot of question will be coming my way…Anyway now on to the Duelist Kingdom season. I doubt it'll be interesting, but anywho, I think there will be some Bakura and Tea moments. Well, that's for me to decided, Nyak Nyak Nyak…anyway…flame comment, don't comment, it's all up to you. See ya.
