Our True Domicile
Tea stood up and dusted herself off but never looked at Yami for the shame she felt was too great. She did however glance at the fallen Yugi, his beaten form was slowly healing and his breathing was normal but his eyes were still closed.
"Great, now will we get back home?" Joey asked
"We have bigger problems, Marik escaped again." Tristan said looking at Seth.
"At least he didn't get the items." Seth said proudly. Yami ignored the whole thing as he watched Tea shake Yugi.
"Wake up please, we have to go home." She cried letting her hair cover her features. "Please...this is all my fault." She whispered as a tear landed on Yugi's cold cheek it slid down slowly kissing his soft skin leaving a wet trail. "I let Marik manipulate me twice and now we cant get back hope. We are stuck in the past." She said
"We are not." Yami spoke so suddenly that Tea jumped up and turned to him. He smiled and walked up to her and mover her hair from her eyes. "Tea, this is not your fault and there is a way home." Yami said "don't lose hope." He said wiping her tears away with his thumb. He let her melt within to him as he pulled her into a hug.
"Thank you Yami." Tea said as she hugged back.
"Oh and how do you suppose we get back home?" Tristan asked "unless you know how to make a rip in time..." he paused, "do you?" he asked scratching his head.
"No, we leave the same way we came." Yami pulled out a pouch of gold dust.
"I thought we had run out." Tea said "Marik had all of it except what he gave us for the first trip." She said letting Yami go to take the pouch that he was now handing to her.
"I took it from Marik when he wasn't looking." Yami turned to Yugi and picked his body up and held him like a child in his arms. "Let's get out of here." Yami said "Marik was stopped for now but will us out of the way he could strike again." he said and walked from the stage as the others followed him.
&&&&&Domino City&&&&&
Mai, Serenity, Duke, Ishizu, Rebecca and nice Bakura were all sitting in the theater waiting for Tea's show. Though she had been missing, they all assumed that it was because she was practicing. And as for the whereabouts of Yugi, Joey, and Tristan, Bakura merely told them that the three boys were helping Tea practice nonstop, though he knew that they would never return.
"I hope Tea is okay." Mai said switching off the cellular phone for the performance. "She's not answering." Mai said
"Where is Yugi?" Rebecca asked
"I hope Joey is okay, he hasn't been around lately." Serenity frowned
"I'm sure they are fine, Where ever they are." Duke said starching so he could put an arm around Serenity, whereupon she pushed it off, thinking of Tristan.
&&&&&Ancient Egypt&&&&&&
Yami holding Yugi, walked with Tea, Joey, Tristan, and Seth to the tomb that was soon to be Yami's. They walked through many corridors waiting and searching for the tablet that brought them there.
There it was on the far wall of the burial chamber sitting in the dim candlelight. "There it is." Seth said as he walked with Yami to the end of the room where they stood before their gateway home. "Fare well My Pharaoh." Seth said "well future Pharaoh."
"Good bye Seth." Yami Turned to Tea as if to tell her he was ready to go back. Tea pulled on the small drawstrings and reached a few fingers to pull out the golden powder. She threw it onto the tablet and it began to ripple like disrupted waves of water.
Tea was the first to jump through, by the courtesy of her guy friends. She felt her head spin as it did the first time but this time was a good trip a trip back home to her old life. She began to think about Yami, it would be a new life. She would be with him now that he and Yugi were in different bodies. And Yugi would be able to love Rebecca freely.
&&&&&&Home&&&&&&
Tea landed in the cold room of the museum, it was closed by now for it was about eight-ish. "Ah I love Domino." She smiled almost wanting to kiss the floor, but thought better of it.
Soon after, Joey, Tristan, and Yami landed back home. "Here we are." Joey said and frowned as he looked at Yugi. "Poor Yug." He said and looked at Yami, "Will he be okay?"
"He should be." Yami said and sure enough Yugi's soft innocent eyes opened. He smiled and looked up at Yami.
"Huh, are we in the soul room?" Yugi looked around and saw Joey and Tristan with a relived Tea. "What happened?" he asked as Yami set him down on the ground. Yugi stumbled and let Joey and Tristan hold him up. "Oh I had this horrible dream, we were all in ancient Egypt and Marik and Bakura were doing horrible things to me." He frowned "but they Tea took my place." He said and turned to her "come to think of it, this pain fells real."
"Yugi!" Tea hugging him trying her best not to hurt him, "That was real and I am so glad you are okay." Tea said
"Thank you for saving me, tea." He said turning looking to his left at Joey and to his right at Tristan then before him at Yami. "All of you." He smiled at Tea, "where did you get that dress?" he asked... "Oh right, your show is today." Yugi smiled
"Today!" Tea shouted "what!" I'm going to be late and I never had time to rehearse... Tea looked left and right not knowing what to do as the whole idea caused her to panic. Yami grabbed her by her shoulders.
"Relax Tea, you'll be fine." Yami said, "You lived it," he said and pulled her along, "we have to hurry if you are going to make it."
