Yu-gi-oh! doesn't belong to me. There. It's a disclaimer.
Ramse was strangely
quiet. "Are you okay, bro?" Caira asked. The two of them were alone
in their house once again. Their father had left for a lecture an hour ago,
and he was not expected home until late. Ever since his latest dig, he had been
travelling across the country giving lectures and talking about the latest finds.
He had finally arrived home yesterday, and he was already required to give even
more lectures. The tablets with carvings of duel monsters were of particular
importance, and professors from around the country flocked to the Domino Musuem
to see the rare finds.
Ramse looked up at his sister. "Uh...yeah, I'm fine..."
Caira looked at him quizically, "Are you sure? You've been acting weird
ever since I had that duel with Hiro Kaiba."
"I just..." Ramse paused. "Caira, this is going to sound crazy,
but I think this necklace really does allow you to see into the future."
"Are you serious?" she asked. "That can't be possible, can it?"
"I thought it was just a legend," Ramse said, "but in your duel,
I saw that Hiro would play a Blue Eyes, and I saw that you would win before
it even happened. It's crazy."
Caira nodded, "I believe you. During the duel, I heard a voice coming from
the puzzle. He said his name was Yami, and he told me what cards to play. I
haven't heard from him since, so I thought that it was all in my head. But if
your belt is magic, then this puzzle could be too."
Ramse began to reply, but he was cut short by the doorbell. "That better
not be Hiro again," he groaned as he walked towards the door. He opened
it to reveal a boy in his teens. The boy's dark purple hair fell gently around
his shoulders, and his quiet grey eyes seemed to radiate happiness and sadness
all at once.
Caira ran up to the door and stopped. "What a cutie!" she screamed
in her mind.
"Who?" came a voice from the puzzle around her neck.
"HIM!" she screamed back. "Hey, wait, you really are real, Yami!"
"Can I help you?" Ramse asked politely.
The boy shook his head. "No, I'm just here to say hi. My name is Taka Bakura,
and I just moved in next door."
"Taka..." Caira sighed in her mind. "What a sweet name."
"Bakura..." Yami said. "That name rings a bell but I can't remember
where it's from. Ah, whatever. It's not that important anyway."
"Oh, but Bakura is so important..." Caira replied.
"Are you feeling well, Caira?" Yami asked. "I am unfamiliar with
this strange mentality that you radiate."
"Wha-?" Caira blushed. "Well I, um...ah..."
Taka glanced around nervously. His gaze fell on the Millenium Puzzle.
Caira gulped. "Yami...he's looking at me, what do I do," she screamed
in her mind.
"This is a unique item," Taka said, stepping towards Caira. He lifted
the Puzzle gently in his hands, and his grey eyes flashed a dark black as he
stared intently at the puzzle.
Ramse put his hand on Taka's, "Please, don't get so close to my sister,"
he said firmly.
Taka gasped and dropped the puzzle. "No! No, I'm sorry," he said,
backing away quickly. "Um...it was nice meeting you." He turned abruptly
and ran out the door.
Caira turned on her brother. "Ramse, what was that for?" she asked.
"Caira, I don't like the way he was looking at you," Ramse replied
calmly. "And the Necklace warned me that Taka was up to no good."
He shut the door, "Caira, I love you. You're my sister. I don't want you
to get hurt."
"He's right, Caira," came the voice from her Puzzle. "For some
reason, Taka Bakura doesn't seem safe."
