A group of kids are heading to their school still chating about
Battle City, since it has been a couple of weeks it had ended and meeting
up with Noah, Kaiba's and Mokuba's dead stepbrother. Marik, Ishizu, and
Odion are leaving for Egypt next week and they invited the group, and the
Kaiba brothers to stay there for a couple of weeks. All accepted, but Kaiba
refused since he has a company to run, but gave in because he didn't trust
no one with his little brother.
"I don't know what's going to happen to the spirit of the puzzel since he got his memory back," Yugi wondered.
"Don't worry, Yug. Whatever happens, we'll be right next to you," Joey said, giving confindence to the spiked-haired boy. "And besides, we have to get ready for the trip next week!"
"You haven't gotten ready yet? Bummer," T`ea sighed.
"What!?"
"That's what you get when you're the late bloomer," T`ea teased as Yugi, Ryou, Tristan, and Duke laughed. Joey was outraged, and chased the girl to the school wanting to kick her ass so bad. The rest of the gang had to followed them so they don't cause a scene nor get detention or suspension. Which really sucks when you're in Japan, because there's more at stake like honor or something, mainly honor.
During school, the gang took turns holding onto Joey so he doesn't make a jackass out of himself, but Kaiba encourage him to be one with his puppy dog and monkey remarks. Tristan wish he had a stungun with him so he came 'calm down' Joey and make Kaiba to back off. Sadly, Kaiba would sue his ass off for sure.
Later on afterschool, they all went home to get out of their school uniforms, even Yugi. T`ea wore her SPIRIT shirt(it's sort of short, yellow, and has spirit written across it(If you saw the Japanese opening of Battle City, then you'll know.)), a black skirt, her bracelets, and her boots; Joey had on a white shirt, blue jeans, and white tennis; Tristan wears his usual clothing; Ryou wore the same thing as in Battle City and so did Duke and Serenity; Yugi has on black sleeveless shirt, still wearing that belt collar, the puzzel, black pants and tennis, and wearing his two black belts which one holds his cards.
The group walked up the stair where they met up with Mai and Odion at the enterance. They greeted and entered the museum. They pass the exhibit and halls downstairs into an office. There was Marik in one of the chairs reading a thick fictional book and was at the halfway point. Ishizu wasn't present in the room, and Odion informed that she'll be back in a few mintues. Marik put down his book and greeted the guest and started to chat abit. Yami was there, but none of them couldn't see him except for Yugi.
There was a knock at the door during the middle of the conversation and before Yugi could finish his question about what's going to happen once they're there, but really was Yami who asked it. Ishizu was first to entered followed by a girl with bright dark blue eyes and light brown hair with the front looking sort the mix of mainly Bakura's and abit of Kaiba's, and side bangs going abit pass the shoulders, wearing a white tube top, a black collar, trench coat, pants, and boots. In other words, she dressed mostly sexy. Duke, Tristan, and Joey were drooling all over her, but Mai slapped Joey hard. Yami was shocked to see the girl because she looked like his wife that he married for a couple of months before she was killed. What was more shocking was the pendant that she wore on her collar. It was the exact same one that she had, but how can she have it since it couldn't go to no one else ever again?
"Crystalline," he whispered like he was in a trance and the girl gasped in her mind when she heard the name. Yugi was the only one to hear it. He was curious and asked who's name it was, but received no answer.
"Crystal?" Marik said quiet surprised as the girl came up to him. Odion was surprised as well. The group was clueless who it was.
"This is Crystal. Crystal, this is T`ea, Joey, Duke, Tristan, Mai, Serenity, Ryou, and Yugi," Marik introduced her to the crew. She beamed at the crew but mainly at the invisible yami behind Yugi.
"How do you two know each other?" T`ea asked, making Marik and Crystal blush.
"That's a long story really and it's complicated to say. I just came to talk to Marik since he hasn't replied to my letters for some time. So maybe we ca be excused?" Crystal said changing the subject as both of them walked out.
"Okay? What was that about?" Joey said stupidly.
"Crystal is like a little sister to Marik since they met for the first time. It was almost the last, if it wasn't for him to break so many rules for her, and for her courage, strength, and reasoning," the female egyptain explained abit.
"What do you mean almost the last?" Yugi wondered.
"I shouldn't tell you."
"Why?"
"That's something that should be kept secret because it was a personal ordeal between both of them, but mainly Crystal, because she almost died," she said sadly as everyone gasped especially Yami. It was almost like or in dèjã vu from the part of where she almost died was like pain in his heart, almost like when his wife was murdered.
"Oh dear," Serenity said as everyone were regretting wanting to ask.
"Now you understand?" Ishizu said as everyone nodded in response.
Mean while outside, Crystal and Marik were catching up with the time. She already know what happened about him at Battle City. She was quiet disappointed of the people he manipulated and 'killed.'
"I can't believe it. You used to be kind and daring to help someone. There has to be another reason why instead of getting power. Well, is there?" Crystal said looking gloom at Marik. Marik wanted to explain, but he didn't want to hurt her, because she was out as a light when it happened as they were young at their first meet.
"Listen..." Marik started, but Crystal snapped.
"No, you listen! Ever since Odion, Ishizu, and you left, we were attacked hard by 'outsiders' and an illness went thoughout the village! We lost several people, even your mother died from it! It was painful, because she was like a mother I never knew to me," she yelled aloud crying in anger that even the people in the office could hear it. The news that Ishizu and Odion heard left them in shock as well as Marik. She continued, "It was even harder for me than any one else, because I was on my way to become an Egpytain priestess, but my studies had to end, because I was needed! I was under a lot of stress and so were the others!" All this anger caused her to cry harder and ran out of the museum. Marik followed her, but she didn't allow him.
"I hate to say this again, what was that about?" Joey asked as everyone looked at the two Egyptians for answers. Yugi looked out of the office into the hall where Marik was walking back. Yami looked worried about the girl as well as Marik.
"I'm not sure. Perhaps my brother knows more than I do," she suggested. She walk out where Yugi and Marik were.
"If you're going to ask, don't. I just know that she imcompleted her studies that she wanting to become a priestess, because outsiders attacked, and an illness went thoughout the village and one of the people that died was our mother," Marik said as everyone stared at him and Yugi went out of the building to find her.
It took Yugi awhile to find her, but it could've been longer if Yami didn't caught her aura. She was in the park still crying at a bench under a tree with her head down.
'Yami, you should take over,' Yugi suggested though mental link. Before Yami could protest, he was already out and Yugi locked himself in his soul room. This was the second time Yugi did this to him, when he's mainly suppose to comes out for duels. This really pissed him off, again, but he couldn't be like that now. He had someone on his hand to take care of.
He walked up to her and saw a tear slowly coming out her cheek. He wiped the tear with his finger. Crystal looked up and saw Yami smilling at her kindly. Something suddenly came over her. She quickly lungged herself to him crying lightly over his shoulder. He was quiet surprised, and he had no choice but to hold her tight as she cried. As she cried, it brought old memories to him, both the good and the bad from Ancient Egypt.
"It's alright," he whispered in her ear gently, rubbing her back with his right hand. As soon she stop, she let go of him. Yami placed his hand onto her cheek to wipe the last tear, and giving her a warm feeling that she's not alone and he's there for her. Her saddness vanished as she looked into his eyes and he looked into hers. Their kindness in their eyes within caused them to be in a trance and they moved closer as they were about to kiss.
"Yugi! Crystal! There you are!" Ryou called out as he ran up, snapping the two out of the trance. "Everyone is looking for you two, especially Ishizu and Marik. They're worried about you, Crystal."
"Um. Sorry about that. I think I went alittle over my head," she said.
"'Alittle!?'" the two boys asked, causing the girl to giggle abit then started to run.
"Come on! Last one there is a rotten egg!" Crystal yelled happily to the boys as they ran after her. None of them wanted to be the rotten egg.
'I think she'll fit in, perfectly, and I still await for that kiss,' Yami thought as he ran past the white haired boy, he was so happy that he forgot that promise that he made and didn't gave a care in the world.
