brok3n - Okay
Yami Sade - Thanks a lot! :-)
dbz422 - Okay, thanks.
Whimsical Lady - Yep, as ugly as ever, I also noticed something else about him too. :-) Anyway, I am muchos grande now so here's the next chapter. As for health before fiction, I think I'd go mental if I didn't write something, so I guess they come in close quarters. :-) Anyway, things are back up and running, enjoy the chapter!
Hey, how does this sound to you...
'Have you ever met someone who could knock on gravestones and talk to dead spirits? No, I didn't think so, but then...you've never met me.'
norestar-angel - Thanks, and I'm all better now, thanks for yours votes! ;-)
LoneGothic - Hope it wasn't on hold too long ;;; (laughs nervously) Anyway, here's the update and well done on guessing that m and m were related.
Kris Bluesummers - Well here's the update and hope you friend gets better asap! :-)
Sanosuke - Yeh, there's so much against Anzu, but if you think about it logically it shouldn't be against Anzu, but against Tea, the dubbed version. As far as my understanding goes, in the manga and undubbed version she's not so speech-happy as she is in the dub.
Child Of The Dark Wolves - I have continued.
Magicman/Smokegirl - Well there is some indication as to what Joey is in this chapter, along with some other interesting twists. :-) Can you guess them all? Plus, I'm sorry this isn't an inu-yasha x YGO x-over but hey, I have cat girls! :-) I'll tell you what sucks, they don't air Inu-Yasha in England, the only things I've got is some manga and the Japanese opening and ending tunes. Sucks neh?
Moon Struck Sea - If you thought he was scared of her last chapter, get to the end of this one and then think again. Anyway, thanks for voting.

Anzu had left Malik with Yami, Bakura, Marik and Seth, silently praying that they wouldn't hurt him. Being alone finally gave her time to think.
For the past week she'd had to stay up till past midnight to ensure that Yami and the others were alright. Then she'd had Ryuuji practically insist that she go on a date with him, not to mention that he's kissed her. Besides that Seto had said she was taking care of Mokuba on Sunday and she had been dubbed The Chosen One by some know-it-all scientists and researchers that thought they owned the world; or Domino at least.
Then she'd found Malik last night and everything seemed to be going haywire.
She'd noticed the uncanny resemblance between the vampires and her friends but she hadn't said anything. If they knew they might be curious and she might accidentally end up putting them in danger.
Come to think of it, why hadn't Ryuuji mentioned about Bakura's resemblance to Ryou? Or worse, had he told Ryou?
Anzu's head throbbed gently as she grabbed some pain killers out of the medicine cupboard and gulped them down with some water.
She stirred the food gently as she scratched the back of her neck anxiously.
"Next thing you know I'll have Magicians and Duel Monsters running around," Anzu sighed as she dished up the food, "or better yet my friends will have mystique powers," she grabbed a tray.
She didn't notice the slight ripple in the air around her, but their were those that did.
Her long blonde hair flowed around her in the wind, it caressed her soft blonde cat's ears gently and her tail twitched. Her violet eyes turned intently towards a city not far. A city by the name of Domino.
She looked up from where she was sitting cross-legged in the midst of a fiery ring. Her aquamarine eyes a sharp contrast against the orange and red that surrounded her. Her golden hair flowed down to her waist as her eyes opened slowly and looked towards the sky. The sun was up but she knew that somewhere, a new power had been awakened and all the forces on the planet were being called.
He gasped as he came up for air, a fish struggling in his hand, his blue eyes looked in land where he'd felt a sudden onslaught of power. The water reared around him and carried him to shore, he waved goodbye to the open water before running towards a small hut not far away. The fish lay forgotten, flopping around on the sand.
Rishid and Mana looked around as they felt a surge of power, "The slayer, powers have been activated," Mana said suddenly, breaking the silence.
"But does she know it?" Rishid asked.
Mana shook her head, "No, now is not time, but little time is left. Evil is rising and darkness is powerful, even against light. Candle can be put out, torch turned off and sun blocked," Mana explained.
"Is there any hope?"
"In slayer?" she looked at him, "Yes," she smiled, "There is much hope."
His violet eyes opened from where he had previously been meditation, the long purple robes fell below him into the never ending darkness that was the shadow realm. "You are troubled Black Magician," he looked up to see a girl in a torn white robe with long white hair and icy blue eyes.
"I sense a disturbance in the mortal realm Kisara," Mahado replied.
"Is it the evil?" Kisara asked looking up at him.
"I fear it may be, but there is light," Mahado started but did not finish, his voice trailing off.
"Then have faith in the light," she smiled coyly, "Black Magician."
Mokuba rolled over in his sleep, his face was troubled for a moment. Papers fluttered on his desk and the curtains billowed even though the large window was not open and the door was shut tight.
Shizuka was dozing off with her brother next to her on the couch, the T.V blaring in the background and casting strange lights on the ceiling. She didn't notice the dying flowers in the vase beside her spring to life or the feint rumble of a far off roar.
Yuugi was half asleep; he looked at the golden box that his grandfather had brought him back from Egypt. It seemed to glow gently but Yuugi's hazy mind told him that it was the light playing tricks on him. Boxes didn't glow.
Ryou looked at the large package he'd just fished out of his mail box, it rattled and suddenly seemed hot for a moment. Ryou opened the package but didn't see the receding glow of the golden ring inside.
Ryuuji looked up from where he was polishing his staff, his hair up in its usual ponytail and his green eyes focused. He closed them for a moment and stopped what he was doing. He was concentrating.
When he opened his eyes he sighed and looked sadly down at the red and black staff in his hands. "They've manifested," was all he said.
Anzu then walked into the dinning room, "Dinner she exclaimed joyfully plastering a smile on her face. She saw Marik and Bakura get up from the floor and seat themselves around the table. She also saw that Seth was looked at a golden rod, Yami was impassive and Malik was glaring at Seth.
"Seth, where did you get that?" she asked as she handed out the meal she'd prepared.
"Um," Seth swallowed hard trying to hide the Rod, "Get what?"
Anzu glared at him, "Come off it Seth, I'm too tired, where did you get it?"
"He stole it off me," Malik said huffily as he grabbed a knife and fork.
"Give it back," Seth ignored her, "Seth, I told you to give the Rod thingy back to Malik," he ignored her again. "Fine," she swiped his dinner, "I'm sure there's someone who deserves this more than you," Seth looked at her; seeing she was serious he sighed.
"Fine," he handed the rod back to Malik, Anzu smiled and replaced his food and with that they all began to eat.
They'd all finished and Anzu was looking down at her fingers as they laced themselves together over and over in her lap, "Guys," she said hesitantly.
"Yes," answered Bakura, "speak up woman."
Anzu blushed, "Guys, what would you do if I told you that," Anzu seemed reluctant to tell them something.
Malik realised what it was before they did, because he was sitting next to her he reached over and began to stroke the palm of one of her hands gently with his thumb. Marik noticed this and growled, but didn't say anything.
"Told us what Anzu?" asked Yami as he crossed his arms on the table and leaned his head on them.
"That I was," her eyes filled with tears, "that I was a slayer?"
