I don't own Yugioh!
(A/N: Okay its now Yugi's side of story. But not his Point of View)
Téa and the others went back into the cottage feeling a bit uneasy. Except Ai, she just went straight to the pone. They waited; there was dead silence until Ai spoke up.
"The phone is dead," she said in monotone.
"How could it be," asked Téa.
"Well, the phone line is probably cut," said Ai searching for it.
"This isn't good," said Ryou.
"I'll use my hand phone," said Seto obviously not impressed as he reached for it.
"No use!" said Ai in a stern voice. "We are far from civilization. The connection as I believe doesn't reach here since this place was supposed to resemble a nature reserve/vacation house. Not only that but the nearest place that have a connection is 30 km away. Which means." but she was cut of by a sudden explosion. Almost everyone fell to the floor except Seto and Ai who held on to something.
"That doesn't sound good either," said Ryou shaken by the explosion. As soon as Ai got her balance back she raced for the door.
"Ai wait for us!" cried out Yugi as he grabbed Téa's hand and ran out too. Seto and Ryou followed. They almost got into a fight for who goes first but Ryou being nice offered Seto to go first almost immediately. Ai stopped as she came out of the meadow and on to the white beaches. She scanned the area but then ran off again.
"Ai wait for.." Said Yugi suddenly stopped "Us."
"The cliff has clasped on the road," said Téa scared. "I think this was what Ai was talking about. But who could have done it?"
"Pretty obvious. Who ever that wants to get rid of us once and for all. But I am not sure about the other students," said Ai as she came back to join the group.
"What? Are they okay?" asked a worried Ryou.
"I'm not sure. But seeing as no one but us has come out its best if some of us go check," Ai replied as she scanned the area with her watchful eyes.
"So we are trapped, for real. I don't like the sound of that," said Téa a little frustrated.
"Well, the first thing we have to make sure we have is food. So Seto and Ryou and Yugi go look for food. Fish will do. Me and Téa will go see the other cottages," said Ai going off followed by Téa.
-Yugi, Seto, and Ryou-
Seto was making a sharp stick with stones found on the beach. He was angry and soon he made more than 3 ancient wooden weapons. Ryou and Yugi went to collect any usable utensils for storing food. Everyone was silent. Maybe the afternoon sun had something to do with this awkward moment. Yugi couldn't hold it anymore, he needed to know what just happened and why.
"I can't believe it," he said which grabbed the attention of Ryou.
"I know. But at least we were not hurt,"
"Be glad," said Seto as he sharpened the stick harder than before.
"I never thought this would happen. I just wish the others are okay," said Yugi with concern. Ryou knew what he meant and felt the same. But Yami has his own thoughts. "Who could have done this Yugi?" asked Yami thinking hard.
"I don't know, but I hope that's all they do," said Yugi while picking up sticks to use as fuel for fire.
"I don't think it is this simple. Something is going on,"
"I have the same feeling," Yugi somehow felt this place being familiar to him. But he doesn't remember.
What they don't know was that someone was lurking in the shadows watching their every move. A sly smile grew on the figure.
-Ai and Téa-
Ai walked toward the other cottages. She knew this had something to do with the previous incident. But didn't know what.
"So how are you feeling now?" asked Ai as she continued to walk.
"Feeling? About what?" asked Téa pretending not to know.
"You can't fool me. About the incident,"
"Oh, well it was about a month ago. I kind of got over it. The first few days when I was discharged from the hospital I felt horrible. I was thinking of all these ways to kill my self. But when I was brought to the hospital again I had thought about it a lot. After thinking about it I guess it isn't so bad. I just want to know who saved me the second time," said Téa.
"Well if I were you I wouldn't think too hard on it. Who ever it was he or she probably know and will tell you one day," Ai said while looking back at Téa with a smile. The first true smile Téa saw on her.
"Thanks. You saved me from them the first time. I have to say, who exactly are you?"
"I'm Tanaka Ai, my father is the head of the police force. My mother died when I was eight. She was found dead in the bathroom with an army knife in her hand. They say it was a suicide. But I knew my mother better than anyone else. She wouldn't do that. It was obviously to me a homicide, but I had no proof then. I vowed to be a detective and solve my mother's murder case. I found some clues a year ago that lead me to Domino. So that is why I am here. You?"
"My family divorced when I was three. My mom married this guy. I didn't like him much because he always got drunk. When he did he would beat my mom and me. One night when we were all alone, he tried to take advantage of me. But my mom came back just in time. She got in a huge fight with him. For our safety she took me and fled to my dad's place. I live with my mom in my dad's house now. He is usually on business trips and my mom is always busy. I love to dance and my dream is to go to New York and study dance. I don't want to use my dad's money or my mom's so I had to earn my own money. I know one day I will get there,"
"You will, don't worry," Ai said as she looked at her. That's when she got an idea. Maybe, this has something to do with Téa, she isn't telling me something. Ai thought. "Looks like all the cottages are empty. I should have known. Someone wants to separate us from the rest of the group. Lets go back to the others," Ai said as she ran back.
"Ai wait!" shouted Téa as she ran after her. But as she passed the old cottage beside theirs, something got her attention. The door was slightly opened.
"Ai," Téa called after her. But go no reply. "Maybe she went inside. Stupid cottages had to be so far apart,"
She walked in, "Ai?" No response.
"Ai, this isn't funny, are you in here?" she asked again. But again she got no reply. Téa decided to go but curiosity caught the better of her. She wanted to know the story of this cottage. So she decided to explore around. It was the same design as their cottage. But it was much older. Nothing was exciting on the first floor. Except for the funny symbols carved. She seemed to recognize them. But don't remember where she saw them before. She went up stairs to investigate. Beside the staircase was yet another set of funny carvings. But on the other side were two clear lines, though not straight. Funny, she thought. They look like the height of two children. On was taller and the other shorter. These look familiar. But where, she thought harder.
"Me and Yugi's carvings on that old tree in grade 3!" she suddenly remembered.
She walked in the first room. It didn't look any different. The second, third and fourth were the same. She went to open the fifth. If this were their cottage, it would be her room. When she opened it shock was the first thing that came to her mind. But horror soon followed. The walls of the room were filled with pictures. Pictures of her, but it seemed that she was unaware of someone taking them. Some are her walking to school or home, and some were pictures of her on different occasions. But the funny thing was that there were pictures of her when she was young. She continued to walk in. Theses pictures started when I was in third grade, she said surprised. Who could have done this she thought. After she calmed down she walked toward the storage. Something was in here. She knew it. She opened the door.
-Ai, Yugi, Seto, and Ryou-
"Ai, you are back! So what did you find?" asked Yugi.
"All the other groups are gone. But they should be safe since I saw a lot of footprints headed to the now inaccessible car park. But they were pretty old, so they left before the explosion happened,"
"Where is Téa?" asked Ryou a bit concerned.
"She is right behind me," Ai looked back. "Or so I thought,"
"You mean, she isn't with you?" asked a really worried Yugi.
"She was," said Ai trying to find an excuse to give to the hyper worried Yugi.
"Lets go find that ballerina before she gets her cloth dirty," Seto said as he walked away from the group to find her.
"What is his problem?" said Ai walking off the opposite direction. "Yugi lets go!" Ai said while walking. Just as they started their search a loud scream was heard.
"Its Téa!" the four said in unison.
"Téa is in trouble!" shouted Ryou as he ran toward Ai and Yugi.
"Where is it coming from?" asked Seto with some emotion as he ran toward them.
"Its coming from that old cottage," said Ai as she began to go there.
"Téa!" screamed Yugi. He ran as fast as his legs could carry him. A bright light flashed from the puzzle and now it was Yami who was running. Téa, I won't let anything happen to you! Yami vowed as he came closer to the cottage.
