Cat woke up the next morning to find her brother and the other two at the kitchen table talking. She had a feeling that her brother knew these people from somewhere and it seemed odd to her. She had felt certain she knew everyone her brother knew, and yet, they were acting like old friends. Cat shrugged, it didn't really matter anyway. She sat down next to Mia as she looked at everyone.
"Good morning." She said. The others returned her greeting with their own.
"Did you hear the news?" Yugi asked her as she takes an apple.
"What news?" she asked taking a bite.
"Apparently your father has decided to give our little team here another fighter." Joey said.
Cat blinked. "Another fighter?" she said.
Mai nodded. "Yes, he is supposed to be really good and have some strong duel monsters."
Cat turned her head. "I really don't think we need anyone else." She said simply.
The others looked at her strangely. "That isn't like you Cat." Yugi said.
Cat looked at him. "I'm not trying to be mean or anything. I just think us four can handle any battles we encounter."
"Well, like it or not. Your father told him that he is to help us out and he is coming." Mia said.
"When?" Cat asked.
"Today." Joey answered. Cat nodded in resignation as she stood up to leave the room.
"What's his name?" She asked as a second thought.
"Kaiba, Seto Kaiba." Yugi said. Cat stopped her retreat to her room at the mention of the name.
"Seto?" She said slowly, rolling the name around on her tongue. The other three looked up, hoping she would remember. Cat turned around.
"Yugi, isn't that the guy you said was my boyfriend?" she asked.
"Yes." Yugi answered. Cat smiled, "See, I told you he wasn't my boyfriend. He's another fighter." Yugi sighed as Cat left.
"I just don't understand, why doesn't she remember him?" Joey asked. The other two shook their heads.
"Maybe, once she sees him, she'll remember." Mai said.
"Hope so."

Seto looked at the training house. They sent him here? Seto clenched his fists together. 'Those incompetent fools!' Seto thought. 'Of all the battle teams in this kingdom they chose this one?! Pathetic.' Seto walked up to the door and gave an annoyed knock. Yugi opened the door and looked at Seto.
"Kaiba." He said.
"You must be Yugi, I was sent here to be the other team member." Seto said, trying to control his irritation. He wasn't really sure why, but something about the little tri-colored haired boy was familiar. And this familiarity was unsettling, but he pushed his feelings aside. He was here to do a job, and he was going to find that stupid crystal.
"Yes, please come in." Yugi said stepping aside as Seto entered.
"Where are your things?" He asked. Seto barely even gave him a glance as he answered. "It's coming later."
Yugi nodded as he led him down the hall. "Your room is that one right there. As soon as your ready come to the living room and you can meet everyone else." Yugi said cheerfully. Seto ignored him as he moved to his room.
Cat was in the room, preparing it for their new team mate as she stood up. "Finished." She said triumphantly. She turned around and bumped into a strong chest and started falling back. A pair of strong arms shot out and caught her around the waist as Cat found herself staring into a pair of the most gorgeous blue eyes she had ever seen.
