Chapter 3: I'll Be Watching You

&Dream I Do$

Slowly, she crept inside of the house, trying to make sure she woke no one. 'Even though,' she thought. 'Anzu is by herself… Her father has just died and her mother is always gone…heh.' She smirked as she silently climbed through the window to Mr. Mazaki's use-to-be bedroom. Well, the girl thought Anzu was alone, anyway…

Anzu was in her room, admiring her new trinket. She smiled as she fingered it and thought of what had happened only a couple of hours ago.

Flashback…

When Anzu got home, she checked to make sure her mom was home from her business trip. Anzu looked for a note or something, but found none. 'Oh well,' she thought. 'Maybe tomorrow she'll call me.'

When was the last time you spoke with her?

Anzu froze as she heard a male voice, sounding somewhat like Yami's…inside her head? But then she remembered what Yami had said about his brother. 'His brother…' she thought.

Yes, that would be me, Mazaki Anzu.

Anzu sweatdropped, "You can read my thoughts…that is sorta annoying, but I guess if you're my guardian now…" Suddenly, a form appeared in front of her, arms crossed. Anzu's draw dropped. Standing before her was the body of, whom she supposed, was Yang. (A/N: In this story, Yamis can have their own bodies, but can also go back in their soul rooms.) He was not much taller than Jounounchi, but had short, nearly platinum blonde hair with a tint of red to it, and his bangs were a little spikey at the ends. His skin was surprisingly pale, but it looked like it had a some-what tan tint to it (my skin can look like this… meh…), and he wore black jeans with red stripes running down the sides, a long, black trench coat (A/N: Think of the one Kaiba wore during Duelist Kingdom, but black on the outside and pure white on the inside…think of his name…he can't be all dark, now can he?), and underneath that he had on a black, long-sleeved shirt; and of course he had the Millennium Crystal on over that, but on a much thicker and longer chain than the one Anzu had. But as she gazed more at this 'gorgeous hunk-of-a-guy', as she called him, she noticed that not only did he have the Crystal, on but had two cross pendants on different-lengthened chords, and a piercing in his right ear. As her eyes traveled up to his eyes, she stopped and stared more. She cocked her head and blinked, for his eyes were…blue? 'Blue? But such a pretty sky blue…' she thought. Yang chuckled and shook his head as he read her recent thoughts, and when he looked back up, he found Anzu right in his face. He jumped back in surprise. "Hey, don't do that!" he said. Anzu giggled. "Sorry," she said. But she thought she had seen the slightest bit of crimson lining his eyes, and indeed it was crimson lining his eyes. 'Beautiful…' she thought as she smiled at her guardian, and new friend.

"I'll ask again, when was the last time you spoke to your mother? And what about your father?" said Yang. "Atem was a little sketchy on the details about you…" he sweatdropped at this. Anzu smiled meekly as she began to tell Yang about herself (oh yea-I am cheesy like this…): "Well, to answer your first question, my mother is away on a business trip, like usual, and the last time I talked to her was nearly three weeks ago. My mother is a travel agent, and is always on the go. As for my father, well, he died nearly three months ago…" as she said this, she looked away from him. She was still grieving over him. Yang walked up to her, and pulled her into a hug. "I'm so sorry…stupid Yugioh…he forgot to mention that." Anzu gave a muffled laugh, and looked up at Yang with a smile, "You're making me feel better already…I think I could get used to having a personal slave—er, I mean, guardian around…" Yang laughed,"Slave, eh? Hmmmm…" Anzu laughed again. "You seem a whole lot different than Yami. Are you younger or older?" "I'm younger, and thank Ra I'm not like Yami!" said Yang. Anzu just chuckled and shook her head. "You miss your father a lot, huh?" asked Yang. Anzu nodded her head sadly. "He would always take time out of his busy schedule to take care of me. I really do miss him," said Anzu, tears streaming down her face. Yang wiped her tears away and tightened his hug. "Don't worry, Anzu. I'm here now…"and so are all of your friends and my stupid brother, too." Anzu snorted and nodded. Yang pulled away and said, "Now, no more crying. Tell me some more about yourself!" Anzu smiled and nodded, and began to tell him of the adventures she's encountered with her friends. Yang listened intently as she told him about Duelist Kingdom, Battle City, and not to mention the part where they were trapped in a virtual world, and helping Yami retrieve his memory.

Yang interrupted her. "I'm sorry Anzu, but Yami doesn't have all of his memory yet…" he said. Anzu gave him a some-what shocked look. "What? But he said he remembered everything from his past…" she said. Yang shook his head, "Not everything. He says some details are a little sketchy, but he said he'll probably remember them in due time." "Well that's good I guess," Anzu replied. Yang nodded. "What do you think he still can't remember?" Anzu asked. Yang looked at her, a little startled, but answered, "I think…just some personal memories, I believe…" Anzu nodded, and looked at the floor. "Well?" Yang said. Anzu gave him a confused look, "Well what?" "Well, which room is mine?" Yang replied with a grin. Anzu gave an anime-fall, and shook her head. "I'm just kidding; I have my soul room to retreat to." Yang said, smiling. Anzu returned the smile, and they began to talk some more.

End Flashback…

Anzu smiled again as she thought about how much she could confide in him. He also told her that they would start on discovering some of the powers of the Millennium Crystal, for Yang only knew of a few of them. Anzu changed into her pajamas, and climbed into bed, still wearing the Crystal. (A/N: It ain't that big…looks like…well, I'll tell ya later…), and drifted off to sleep. But watching her from the shadows was another presence…another darker presence. The girl smirked as she watched Anzu sleep. 'I can't believe my brother has fallen in love with this weakling…whatever, though. I only have to stay here for a while…heh, this could be fun…especially if I mess with the baka pharaoh's brother…heh heh heh… I'll be watching you little girl…'
