"I'll miss you a lot to Kasumi. Except for Uchan you were only one that ever treated me with any kindness. Is there anything I can do for you?" Kasumi seemed to think for a moment and then took something golden from behind her back.

"Yes, please stand still for a moment." Putting the point of the key shaped object on Ranma's forehead she turned it half a turn and time seemed to stop.

_______________________________

Kasumi opened her eyes to look at the terrain of Ranma's mind. She had learned from her various trips into people's minds that their mental landscape was a reflection of several factors such as their intelligence, attitude on life, and personalities. There was a large plain looking building standing in front of her so she went in. She wandered around the various corridors and hallways until she came to a room the size of a small broom closet.

"I wonder what this is supposed to be."

"That is Ranma's sex drive. I'm working on making it bigger." Kasumi whirled around and came face to face with. Ranma? Shaking off her confusion she held up her millennium key to ward him off and spoke in as forceful a voice she could muster.

"Who are you and why are you trespassing on this mans mind?" The figure chuckled and she noticed that he had a more feral tone about him then the Ranma she knew.

"I could ask you the same thing Kasumi Tendo. Or should I say Kasumi Istar?" Kasumi blinked and then grew grim.

"So you know my real name but I still don't know yours. Tell me now!" The figure chuckled again.

"I'm sorry Kasumi, but I can't do that just yet. In fact I have to ask you to leave, the Millennium Key can cause great damage to a persons mind if it's not used properly, and I can tell you haven't had much practice with it." Kasumi frowned, who ever this was he knew about the powers of the millennium items and that could cause trouble. The figure waved his hand spoke again.

"Take care Kasumi Ishtar, you were kind to Ranma and for that I am sparing you the punishment for invading an innocents mind." Kasumi felt as if a giant wind was blowing around her and she found herself leaving Ranma's mind against her will.

_________________________

Although no time had passed in the real world Kasumi had spent several hours in Ranma's mind. She removed the key from his forehead and backed out of the room while Ranma stared into blank space. She had erased any memory of what he had seen of her in his mind before she had left and he would still be dazed for a few seconds, allowing her time to escape. She hurried to her room so she could have some privacy and thought about what she had seen in Ranma's mind. It was obvious that he had the powerful spirit of the pharaoh living inside of him and that, while weakened from his long sleep in the puzzled, contained a great source of power. She walked over to her treasure box and pulled out a deck of cards. On the very top was a blue card with what looked like a blue giant and the stats [4000, 4000]. Putting it safely back into its box she thought for a moment and then grinned. I seemed that she would have to call Pegasus and report this information.

__________________________

Ranma shook his head as he stood in the guest room. For some reason he was thinking of Kasumi but he didn't know why. Shouldering his pack he took one last look at the walls that had been his home and walked out the door. On his way down the stairs Akane finally returned home from school and immediately yelled at him.

"RANMA! Do you have ANY idea how much you embarrassed me today! The entire school was talking like we had broken up! This is all your fault! I wish you would just leave forever!" Ranma seemed to get a thoughtful look on his face and then answered.

"OK." Ranma readjusted his pack and walked out the door leaving a stunned Akane staring after him. A normal person would have gone after him and asked him to explain, or at least said goodbye. But Akane being Akane did the only thing she thought was normal.

She went to cry and tell her pig about how much of a jerk Ranma was.

___________________________

Ranma dropped his pack in surprise as he took a look at his mother's home. The back looked like a plain Japanese home but the front was obviously a store.

"You own a game shop?" Nodoka smiled.

"Well of course. After you and Genma left I needed a hobby and I picked up duel monsters. I got interested in several other games as well and since I had so much knowledge I started a game shop that specializes in trading and buying individual cards. How else did you think that I could get all five pieces of Exodia? Business has been picking up since last year and I was thinking I would need to hire someone to help carry the load. What would you say to helping me run the shop after school? It would give you a great opportunity to build your own deck and we could catch up on all of the time we were apart.." Ranma thought for just a second before replying.

"That sounds great mom."

________________________

Ranma rushed through the front gates of school and saw Kuno barring his way into the building. He had been sent to the hospital for a week after his fight with Ranma and now appeared to have recovered.

"Fiend Saotome! Your defeat of me a week ago was nothing but an illusion of black sorcery! No one is greater then Tatiwaki Kuno in the art of kendo! Prepare to meet thy end!" Ranma sighed and leapt foreword. It figured that Kuno wouldn't honor the terms of their fight. He didn't even attempt to attack Kuno but used his empty samurai head as a spring board to leap into his classroom through the window. He put his books away in his desk and sat down to wait. Soon Ukyou came in and he showed her his newly finished deck. A little while later the teacher came in and class started. About midmorning Hinako came into class and started lecturing about some science principle that no one cared about. Ranma started to nod off and but still managed to catch the chalkboard eraser that was thrown at him.

"Mr. Saotome! Since you appear to be so alert would you care to answer the question?"

"Hai, the answer is hydrochloric acid." Hinako smirked.

"No the answer is.hydrochloric acid." she flew over to Ranma's desk and started searching through his sleeves and pockets.

"Where are you hiding your notes you delinquent!? There's no way you knew that on your own!" Ranma pushed her away irritably.

"Hands off teach, you're breaking about a million rules of Student/Teacher conduct. You don't want to end up a delinquent do you?" This was too much for Hinako to handle and she brought out her five yen piece.

"I'll show you who the delinquent is! Happo Five Yen Satsu!" Hinako aimed for Ranma but forgot to take into account the puzzle around his neck. Ranma fell over on his desk thinking he had been drained but felt his energy come right back. Hinako wasn't so lucky. She grew to her adult form as usual but had fallen over into unconsciousness.

What the hell is that girl doing! Recognizing Yami's voice Ranma looked over to see him sprawled on the floor with a very drained look on his face.

That was Hinako's aura draining technique. It steals a person's ki and that allows her to grow into an adult form. But usually I'm drained for the rest of the day, why did it come back so fast? Yami was looking a little better as he rose to a sitting position and took a deep breath.

She didn't steal just your ki, thanks to our lesons your ki has become infused with Shadow Realm magic. It appears that it was incompatible with her body and was rejected back to us. Ranma looked down worriedly at the students trying to revive their fallen teacher.

Then why didn't she transform back to a child? Filing that away for later he announced that he would go get the school nurse and left.

_______________________________

Ukyou helped some of the other female students move Hinako to the back of the room where there would be more room for the nurse to work when she got there. She then set up a vigil and started smacking the perverts that wanted to take advantage of their teacher's condition. While flattening Daiske against the wall she started to wonder why Ranma hadn't fallen over exhausted like he normally did. For that matter since when could Ranma play card games and win and why was he being so friendly to her? Ever since he had gotten that necklace things had been getting really crazy. Putting those thoughts aside for later she saw him come back with the nurse and started helping her move the unconscious educator to the infirmary.

______________________________

Ranma and Ukyou were leaving the school when they met Hinako in the hall. She still hadn't transformed back into her child form and this piqued Ranma's curiosity. She motioned for them to stop and then pointed to a room. "I need to talk to both of you about this afternoon. Would you please step into my office" It was not a request. Ranma and Ukyou nervously entered the small office and sat down in front of Hinako's desk. She reached into her desk and pulled out what looked like a deck of cards.

"You're probably wondering why I asked you here right?" the two teens nodded.

"Would you please take out your dueling deck Ranma and draw two cards?" Ranma took his deck from the case on his belt and took two cards from the top. He handed them to Hinako who looked them over carefully.

"I see, Performance of Swords and, oh my, a Buster Blader! That's a very rare card." Ranma nodded.

"Ukyou gave me Performance of Swords as a gift and Buster Blader was the first ultra rare card I ever added to my deck. Why do you want to know?"

"It's rather simple; a few weeks ago I bought an item at the school bazaar from an unusual old man. He said that it had magic powers but I didn't believe him." She pulled something out from under her shirt and let it hang around her neck. It was a golden hoop with a triangle in the middle bearing the same eye design as Ranma's puzzle and five golden spikes along the edges. Ranma heard Yami gasp.

That's the Millennium Ring! Why couldn't I sense it till now?! The ring started to glow and Hinako's clothes seemed to move like there was a wind around her.

"It turns out that there was magic in this but it didn't awaken until I tasted your Shadow Realm energy Ranma. I've been imprisoned in that ring for over four thousand years but now that I have awakened I can complete my task of gaining all of the Millennium Items, Starting with your puzzle Ranma!" The ring shot a beam of golden light and hit Ranma and Ukyou on the forehead. They barely had time to gasp as their bodies fell on the ground apparently unconscious. The two cards in Hinako's hand glowed and then returned to normal. Smirking Hinako was reaching down to Ranma's still form to take his puzzle when his hand shot forward and grasp her arm in a grip of steel.

Return those souls to their rightful place and I will be lenient with you." She snarled and tore her hand out of Ranma's grasp but noticed that his voice was different and he had a more feral personality and wilder hair. She got over her shock quickly and started to laugh.

"I see, so you managed to survive Yami. I never thought that such an idiot like Ranma to be your avatar but then again you never were very good when it came to judging people." Yami smirked and Hinako suddenly felt nervous.

"I see that you also managed to survive Burkera, and I never thought that a man like you would pick a girl as your avatar. But then again you always were a pervert." Hinako aka Burkera growled and then laid the two cards on her desk as she reached for her deck.

"I see that I can't just take your puzzle like I planned so let us duel for it. If I win I get your puzzle, if you win then I will free those two pathetic souls, agreed?" Yami added the two cards he had left on Hinako's desk and nodded.

"I agree." Burkera smirked again.

"I don't know why you want them back anyway, they aren't any use to you. But just to make things more interesting..." The Millennium Ring glowed again and the room suddenly got darker. Light seemed to become waves and everywhere one looked there were shadows.

"A little trip to the Shadow Realm will defiantly spice up the game right? Besides, it's been so long since you've been here" Yami grimly nodded and set his deck on the dueling mat.

"Let's Duel!"

Authors notes

Ahhhh! Hinako has the Millennium Ring! Ranma and Ukyou have had their souls sealed! Yami is going to duel for his LIFE!!!!! AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! (Starts to hyperventilate.)

Okay next chapter has Yami versus Hinako/ Burkera but this will be very different then the duel with Yugi versus Bukara. I promise to update this on Saturday, even if it is incomplete. And I still haven't decided if Kasumi is evil or not, I'm leaving that option open. As far as I know Burkera is not the name of the spirit of the Millennium Ring since I made it up myself, but I don't need a lot of emails telling me his real name since I like this one and I am not writing a pure Yugioh fic. I am also adding a new story to my profile, click on my name at the top of this story to see animeprime's newest creation
