A/N Still don't own it. But thank you all for the reviews. It inspires me to keep typing these chapters down and start my next story.

Chapter 11

The light expanded in Kiri's hands as she chanted. Behind Kaiba, a swirling pool of magic appeared; it slowly rose up revealing Blue Eyes White Dragon. He placed on clawed foot on Kaiba's shoulder and spread his wings out around them and roared. Kaiba's black outfit stood out in stark contrast to the white of the dragon.

Muki looked up at the Blue Eyes in awe. He flew over and landed on Kaiba's other shoulder; spreading his wings and puffing out his chest. "What do you think, Kiri? Isn't this a picture of strength and nobility, not to mention sheer good-looks." Muki beamed with pride.

"It was...until you entered the picture." Kiri retorted.

"I will have you know, I have nobility in my blood." Muki sneered down his snout at her.

"On the wrong side of the sheets, maybe." Kiri replied.

Blue Eyes White Dragon delicately picked up Muki with two claws and dropped him off the platform with a look of distate. Kiri howled with laughter and nearly dropped her spells and spellbook. Muki crawled back on the platform with an affronted look. "Everyones a comedian" he complained.

"Your just the jester to the King" Kiri snickered.

Muki grumbled for a few seconds until he remembered something. He flew up and landed on Kiri's shoulder; an evil gleam in his eye.

"Hey" he whispered conspiratorially and rather loudly " Does that mean your starting to like him." He pointed a claw toward Kaiba. Kiri blushed and glared at Muki. "Shut up lizard or i am going to shove cotton down your throat and use you for a lantern." she threatened.

Muki flew over and perched on the railing. "Seems someone doesn't like hearing the truth about what she is feeling."

"Dragon, it's not wise to tease someone who is holding magic in her hands that can be used to fry your tail." Kiri snarled at Muki. Muki only grinned and opened his mouth to retort.

"Turn ended." Kaiba's voice cut through their arguement. Kiri turned and then swayed slightly. Kaiba reached out and caught her elbow, helping hold her up until she caught her balance again. "Thank you," she whispered. Her face was slightly pale and her eyes seemed to lose focus for a moment. Kaiba dropped his hand and took a step back to be slightly behind her. Kiri took a deep breath and concentrated on staying awake.
