A/N: This is the last chapter that I have had to repost. Yay! I am glad…I hate having to delete my SOS's. I wanted to say, I am so glad all of you like my story! It's getting more reviews in the beginning then the original got in like the first 5 chapters! O.o Anyway, please keep it up! Remember, next chapter HASN'T been posted yet! Once again, YuGiOh is not mine...Alexa and the story idea is.

Alexa struggled against the guards as she was thrown into the dungeon. They had a stone chair and tied her arms behind her back and her legs to one of the legs on the chair. They told her something in Arabic, which she couldn't understand. They left a knife in front of her, as if to torture her. When they left, Alexa tried to get near the knife, but the chair seemed to have been glued to the ground itself. Her only hope was that Yugi was okay, and that she would be too. She remembered that Egyptians went by "an eye for an eye", meaning that whatever the crime doer did got done to him as punishment. She had annoyed the Pharaoh, so they were annoying her, however, she highly doubted that she was going to be let off easy, it was only a matter of time before she starved to death. Yugi… she thought, Just be careful. Don't worry about me. I'm just a burden to you without my powers…She shocked herself. Wasn't she supposed to forget about her powers? How did she remember? Was it maybe because it was such an extreme situation?

Yami-gone-bad made his way to the third corridor, where he had heard the girl shouting towards. Yami was horrified, fearing for Yugi's safety, but he was helpless against his former self. He had forgotten how cold he had been back then. Yami felt the whip against his belt, slightly frayed from it's many uses. It would be fun having two prisoners…

Yugi was confused. He wasn't sure exactly what he should do. Should he try to be calm, or should he act tough from the beginning and stand his ground? He has no idea how Yami's alter-ego was…but could he really be that bad? He was good in the future, how bad was he in the past? Yugi was getting worried. What if he failed? All three of them would be stuck in the past!

Yami heard the patter of footsteps as Yugi paced from side to side in his room. He chuckled to himself at the thought of what he was doing. He pushed open the door easily, revealing a small boy on the inside. But wait, that boy looked just like him! He was shorter, and his eyes were bigger, but otherwise there appearances were identical. Yami couldn't let anything happen to Yugi, but how could he stop someone who had control over his own body? It was impossible. "So, you've come to impersonate the Pharaoh, have you? I'm afraid I've caught on…"

Yugi didn't dare flinch. "No. I've come to bring back the good side to you." Yugi answered. Everyone he ever came in touch with seemed to have two sides, and for himself he thought that meant him and Yami… but now, two Yami's? That meant three versions of Yugi!

Yami thought to himself. Yugi, help me…I can not control what's taken over… "You need some punishment, young one. Allow me to teach you some manners…" He touched the whip, the start of three stages: touch, grip, and whip!

Yugi stayed strong, stronger then he thought he could be. "Yami, it's me, Yugi! I know you're in there, and I know you can break free! You're too strong to let this guy take control of you!"

Yami felt Yugi's bravery, and channeled it into him trying to gain control again. "Yugi…I am here…help!" Yami lost control to the other one. "You will not get your friend back that easily…Yugi!"

Yugi could tell that Yami had appeared for that one moment. I have to remind him about enough things so he can gain back control. The past version of himself is hard to break, but I know we can do it! I just wish Alexa was here…she'd probably be brave, at least… "Yami! I'm here…Alexa's helping too…I know she is! We both believe in you!" Great, I'm starting to sound like Te

Yami knew what Yugi was saying was true. He had to break free…but how could he stop the other, obviously stronger one. He had an idea. It could be risky, but he was sure it would work…he just had to tell Yugi. "Yugi…you have to…you have to knock him out! Make him unconscious!" Yami got shot back, once again out of control. This time the sudden switch felt like he had been thrown hard against a wall. "Listen, if you come near me, you'll meet a grim fate…" He gripped his whip. Oh no! Yugi only has one shot at this…And there's still the risk it won't work at all!

Yugi knew what he had to now do…the question was how to do it. He quickly glanced around the room, and saw nothing within his reach that could knock someone unconscious. He began playing with his earrings again…wait, that's it! He began to frantically try to remove his earring from his ear. It was solid gold, and heavy as a rock. If thrown right, he was sure it could knock him out. His hope was that he wouldn't knock out the one he was trying to save.

"Hehe, if you make one move with that earring, you'll have a taste of the cats tongue!"

Yugi didn't even try to think about what the other person had just said. But, he thought, how in the world did you undo these earrings?

Meanwhile, Alexa was having a pretty hard time herself. She was convinced that she should try and use her powers, but how? If she used them for the wrong reason at the wrong time, she might drain them completely. That's when someone walked into the room she was in. It was a couple people actually, she soon realized, and they all held a millennium item: The items included the rod, the necklace, and the key. Alexa just sat there, almost certain that speaking was useless, since they probably only spoke Arabic. They asked her something, by which she just said "Excuse me?" not really expecting a response. But were these people friends or foe?

Yami stepped towards Yugi, who couldn't seem to take off his earring. Yugi had no choice but to step back, but never pausing at the earring. Yami, as if to prolong Yugi's suffering, un wound the whip slowly as he cornered Yugi. Yugi realized that he'd have to just yank the earring, and hope the gold would tear instead of his ear. Yami stood close; close enough to get a good hit. "You'd better be scared, because there is no way you can possibly win against me!" Yami said. Yugi gulped. He had one chance, and one chance only. This had to work. In one swift motion, Yugi gripped his earring, yanked it, and threw it towards his opponent's forehead. It struck true, much to Yugi's relief, and knocked his enemy out cold. He also realized that the earring had ripped, not his ear. He then heard grunting coming from the body, and he leaned over to help Yami back to his feet.

"You did it, Yugi! You saved me." Yami said happily, accepting Yugi's hand to help him up.

"It was nothing, really. But I'm worried about Alexa…what do they do to the prisoners anyway?"

Yami thought for a moment, and then gasped. "They send them to the shadow realm!"

Yugi and Yami wasted no time running towards the dungeons, in which Alexa was having problems again.

Alexa had said "Excuse me?" to be more of an amusement for herself. But she almost screamed when the one woman answered back.

"Ah, so you speak English, eh? Never was my favorite, but oh well. I asked you if you were ready to be sent to the shadow realm." The woman holding the necklace asked. She looked surprisingly like Ishizu.

Alexa thought to herself. The shadow realm? "What for?" she asked aloud…

"You angered the Pharaoh, a serious offense. You now must get sent to the shadow realm." The man holding the rod answered, holding the rod in Alexa's face, ready to send her there.

"Any last words, girl, before we send you away?" The man with the key asked.

Alexa was shocked. All three of there millennium items began to glow. Alexa wondered…should or shouldn't she use her powers? She hadn't thought about being sent to the shadow realm. "Yes, I do. Beat my magic!" Alexa's forehead began to glow brightly. Alexa, Alexa thought to herself, if you had taking the time to think, you would know that the odds are against you. Three obviously fresh items against your exhausted powers. Well, I tried Yugi. Guess I am no good after all …The three people, who appeared to be priests, began to use there millennium items. She winced at the pain of the items power. This was it, she was gone…

"Stop it right there!" Yami rushed in and yelled, panting from running so quick and so far. The three priests kneeled in the presence of the Pharaoh. Yugi followed close behind, wondering when Yami had learned to run like that… Alexa was not completely engulfed by the shadows, but she wasn't completely there either. Yugi and Yami rushed past the priests towards Alexa, who was struggling to sit up in the chair.

"You…guys came for me? I…I can't believe it…I thought I was gone…" Alexa said quietly, struggling against the shadows. She was more there then here…

"You will be soon, if we don't do something…" Yugi said worriedly, turning to Yami.

Yami turned towards the priests. "Release her from the shadow realm, now!" Yami's voice was filled with anger, but only towards the priests. The three quickly obeyed. It took her a second, but Alexa quickly recovered. Yugi grabbed the knife on the table, and cut through the ropes securing Alexa to the chair. Alexa ran up and, taking him by surprise, hugged Yami.

"I'm so glad your ok now!" Alexa said happily. She then ran back to Yugi, and hugged him. "You did it! You saved Yami!" Yugi gladly returned the hug, but Yami just stood there, in awe. Was he just hugged by the girl who knew he didn't trust her? Could it be possible…no; she still couldn't be trusted. She had been the one who had let his other side out, and had let herself get captured by the guards.

"So how did you do it, actually?" Alexa asked Yugi about how he saved Yami.

"It was easy, well, it was once I knew what I was doing. I used my earring!" Yugi said with a laugh, holding up the gold ankh.

"Here, let me put it back on, unless of course, you'd rather have me take off the other one." Alexa offered, holding the earring like it was no big deal.

"Um, alright, sure! You never know when two pound golden earrings can save the day!" Yugi replied. Alexa put the other one back on, than turned towards Yami, who hadn't said much.

"What's up with you? You've been quiet since you came here." Alexa gave a questioning look.

Yami replied "I'm fine…I was just thinking of stuff…"

Stuff? Alexa thought. Since when does he say stuff? She shook it off and followed the two out the door. Everything was almost better now.

But there happiness was short lived.

One of the guards ran in, and muttered something quickly and nervously to Yami. Yami said something back to him, and the guard nodded. Yami sighed and yelled something at the guard, all in Arabic. Alexa and Yugi were confused, and a little frightened. Whatever was going on was really bad. Yami turned towards the two.

"The war has made it's way to this town. I'm afraid we're no longer safe here…" Yami informed.

"Do you know who the leader is? Usually when you know who it is, it's easier to defeat them." Alexa said, but in a way that announced it was just a guess. Yugi just stood there. What else was there to be said?

"The leader," Yami replied. "Is Bokura, the one who has the Millennium Puzzle."
