Dreams of Angels
"This is it?" a figure said. They looked at the Kame Game Shop, just visible in the moonless night. They held up a flashlight to check the address on a slip of paper held in their hand. The light illuminated their face for a moment; a feminine face, framed by long, straight, platinum blonde hair. Her crystal blue scanned the few lines on the paper. "Yes, this is right... but I'll never get in now..." She checked her watch. "It'll be worth a few days to check which one of them it is. Lady Hikari would not be happy if I brought her an Angel by mistake..."

"You didn't..?." Yugi said slowly. Yami smiled at him happily. "Yep! I enrolled in your school! They even put me in the same classes as you, because I said we were related." Yugi sweatdropped. "But... but..." he stuttered. "It's OK; I can catch up real quick because I already read your mind." Yami said, smirking. "But I promise I won't cheat." Yugi rolled his eyes. "Come on then; we mustn't be late!"
"Ha ha! Haruna-sensei will have a heart attack!" Jonouchi laughed when he saw the pair arrive at school. "What on earth possessed you to come to school, Yami?" Malik asked carefully. "All I do is sit around at home and do nothing, so I thought I might as well come to school." Yami answered. The bell rang loudly, calling students to class. Yugi sighed. "Let's begin the torture of our teacher, then."
Haruna-sensei did indeed have a heart attack when Yami entered the classroom, but is now recovering well in Domino Hospital.
"What?! I didn't do anything!" Yami protested against Yugi's accusing glares.
"Right... well, while Haruna-sensei is in hospital, you will have a substitute teacher." the principal announced to the class. "This is Kyoushi- sensei." A kindly looking teacher entered the classroom, and bowed. She seemed about twenty-seven, curly brown hair... well, a lot of the boys liked her anyway. "And, before I forget, another new student."
A girl entered, half scowling as she stood at the front of the class. "My name is Karyuudo Kahi." she said, flicking her long, blonde hair back over her shoulder. The pink jacket and short blue skirt of the Domino High uniform looked very out-of-place on her. She looked over the class with a sour expression, until her eyes landed on Yami and Yugi, sitting at adjacent desks near the back of the room. 'What luck...' She smiled inwardly.
"Very well, sit down please, Miss Karyuudo." Kyoushi-sensei said, taking her place behind the teacher's desk. "Please take out your algebra books..." There was a collective groan from the class, loudest of all from Jonouchi.
"Turn to page one hundred and three, quadratic equations, and answer the questions in exercise three..."

"Regretting it yet, mate?" Jonouchi asked, sitting down at a table outside with Yami and Yugi. Malik joined them after a few moments, complaining about queues in the lunchroom. Yami shook his head. "No! It's interesting, especially having to learn maths a different way." he said, smiling. Jonouchi laughed. "Only Yami would have that much interest in maths." "Well, the Ancient Egyptians didn't have a number zero, Jonouchi, so I expect it would be quite interesting." Malik pointed out. Jonouchi pouted. "Aw, everyone's turning against me."
"Never mind, Jonouchi! You just have yet to realise that not everyone as the intelligence of a brick like you." Malik joked. The blonde boy blinked for a second, deciphering what Malik had just said. "Hey! I'll get you for that!" he shouted, standing up to hit Malik, but falling over his chair. "Are you okay, Jonouchi?" Yugi asked, stifling giggles. "He's fine. Bricks are tough." Malik answered, taking Jonouchi's hand to help him up.
"Mind if I sit with you guys?" a voice asked from behind Jonouchi. All four looked up to see that it was Kahi. Yami frowned, but the other three nodded straightaway.
//Yugi... there's something not right about her...//
/Hmm? Well... just leave her be, you may just be being paranoid./
//I'm not paranoid!//
/Sure you're not./
//I still don't feel comfortable here!//
/No-one's making you stay./
//Fine.//
"Yo, guys?" Jonouchi snapped his fingers in front of Yami's face. "Wakey wakey!" "Quit that, Jonouchi!" Yami said, getting to his feet. "I have something to do in the library. Bakura wanted help with something." He turned, and hurried off. "He's going to have a hard time helping Bakura in the library since it's in the other direction." Jonouchi muttered. Yugi laughed. "Never mind. You should know not to question him."
"What's up with what's-his-name?" Kahi asked, seeming uninterested. "His name's Yami." Yugi told her. "He's my... brother. For the past couple of years, he's been studying in England - only comes back for the summer, y'know? He's just come back to school in Japan, but he's in my classes because they don't have as good education in England. He's just a little bit shy." Jonouchi blinked; it was a pretty good lie. "Ah... I spent a short time in England myself. Strange language, nothing's pronounced how it's spelt." Kahi said thoughtfully. Yugi nodded.
'I'm sure; it's the older one who is a Demon.' Kahi thought. 'I can put my plan into action tonight.'

"Aw... so much homework..." Yugi complained on the way home. Yami glanced down at him. "It's just homework. Get it done quick, and then we can have some fun!" he said. "Uh uh. Not your kind of fun. Not today." Yugi said, looking up with wide eyes. "Still recovering from the past month..." he added quietly. "Fine..." Yami pouted. "We'll find some OTHER kind of fun."
The Puzzle glowed for a second. "Yugi, get down!" Yami tugged the smaller boy down with him, as an arrow rushed over their heads. "What was that!?" Yugi exclaimed, looking up. Yami reached out for where the arrow had hit the ground. "A magical arrow?" He stretched his fingers out to touch it, but recoiled as they brushed the wooden shaft. "It's capturing magic... come on, let's go." He seized Yugi's hand, and ran towards the Kame Game Shop as fast as he could.
The arrow disappeared in a puff of black smoke.
"Dammit..." Kahi muttered from her place on the roof, lowering her bow. "This is going to be harder than I thought... Yami is not Demon alone. I will need help." Her long black cloak fluttered in the breeze, clasped at her left shoulder with an intricate brooch inscribed with the letters 'YK'.
