What's going on?!

Mizuki: Okay, so the last chapter was kinda short. Gomene mina-san.

Martina: Uhem. In plain English, translation: Sorry Everyone.

Mizuki: Okay, back to business. I'm very sorry about not updating right away! I-

Martina: WE!

Mizuki: Fine! We had writer's block!... Sorry!

Martina: Anywayz, before we start the story, Let's review the last scene...

----Somewhere... out there...----

Somewhere across the street, a hooded figure stared at what Bakura and Ryou were doing. He smirked at their actions and continued his walk through the sidewalks. 'It was a great idea to drop by here. Yami, what have you been doing the past three thousand years? I guss it's for me to find out then, isn't it?'

He laughed maniacally. Some passers-by stared at him,, dumbstruck and avoided him. He let out a silent chuckle at the people's reactions and completely disappeared into the night...--

---- End flashback sequence----
Mizuki: Okay, disclaimer time!

Martina: In dedication to our close buds, Kaiba, please do the honors.

Kaiba: They don't own Yu-gi-oh! Only Kitana and some character named—

Mizuki and Martina get over to him franticly and covers his mouth.

Martina: Hey, Kaiba! Why do you always have to ruin everythin' huh?

Kaiba: It's my nature to be like this...

Mizuki: Anywayz, (suddenly in narrator voice) On with the fic!

Everyone else: -sweat drop-

The next day...

"Hmm?", Yugi woke up from the sound of his alarm. As he turned to look at his clock..."Huh?? It's already nine?! I'm going to be late for school!". Yugi scrambled out of his bed. He made a careless move which made him fall head first towards the floor. "Ow!", he rubbed his head furiously, trying to lessen the size of his bump.

"Ohayou Yugi", said Yami as he suddenly materialized. "Yami, were you the one that reset my alarm?", Yugi asked while he tried to get up. "No, of course not", he said as he helped him up.

"I better get ready for school. Quick!". He ran towards his closet and into the bathroom. In a matter of seconds, he was ready. He ran pass Yami and went hurriedly down the stairs. To his surprise his grandfather hadn't woken up. "Grandpa?", he said as he looked around. "Uh Yugi?

"Grandpa? Where's breakfast?", he said as he scanned their breakfast table."Didn't you wake up a little early today?", his grandfather said, looking a bit confused. "It's already nine o'clock grandpa!". Ehen he made this statement, Yugi could've sworn his grandfather's eyes had widened."Don't you wake up after some time during Saturday's?"

"Saturday??"

"Yes look", his grandfather showed him the newspaper. He looked at the paper in Sugoroku's hand. To his surprise, the given day was Saturday. He stared at the paper for a while. 'What happened last night?!', he thought as he looked at the paper in deep thought.

He walked to the arcade thinking that if it was a Saturday, the rest of his friends would be there. "Wait up Yugi!", yelled Yami as he tried to catch up to Yugi. Yami stared blankly at his face blankly, then reacted immediately as he finished reading his mind. "Strange. This should've been impossible. We've banned time travelling centuries ago...". "Yami! What have I told you about looking through my mind!...---- What do you mean time travelling ??"

"Time travelling. As in, going through time?"

"I mean--- you could travel through time?!?"

"It all started like this: People started to interfere with important and historical moments in history, that if continued to be tampered with, might lead to the ruin of the very fabric of life and time alike!", he said. His eyes showed complete seriousness. But Yugi wondered...

"...do you have any idea who started it?"

"Yami?..."

As they neared the arcade, they heard voices of disagreement. "Yes Bakura! We're very sure.". "Hey guys", he greeted them as he and Yami walked in. "What were you talking about?", Yugi asked. Ryou turned to him and said, "Hey, Yugi. Marik, Malik and 'Kura were just arguing with some small details-".

"Small? Bakura, you're hikari has some damage! This matter isn't small, it's huge Ryou! It might even be more important than your pitiful existence!"

"Don't talk to my hikari like that Malik!"

"So, what's going on?", repeated Yugi. This time, everyone listened. "Well Yugi, These guys keep on saying that today's really suppose to be Friday? Can you believe that?!". Yami turned from Joey to Yugi, then to Bakura and Malik's party.. "Um Guys, can we talk to you?". Everyone headed out. "So you guys are like Yugi and I then..."

"Yes!! And those damn mortals wouldn't believe are story!", shouted Bakura. "What do you mean 'Kura?", Yugi asked. "In case you haven't noticed, they wouldn't believe our story! I don't know why they can't remember!". Yami turned to Bakura and spoke, "I have a feeling that they're not the mortals we dealt with yesterday...". But Yami," Yugi interrupted. "If they aren't then where are OUR Tea, Joey, Kaiba, Mokuba and Tristan??"

----On the other hand...----

'Seven already'

She picked up her phone and rewound the messages she received the night before and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth.

"Tea? It's Joey. Could I borrow your Chem notebook? I wasn't able to take that many notes"

Beep---

"Tea, It's Kaiba. The teacher said that the fieldtrip next week would be postponed to Thursday"

"God, I already know that! Tell me something I don't know Kaiba! You've told me the same thing four days ago!!"

Last message posted on May 9, 2004.

"What?? You mean my answering machine wasn't updated over the last, what? Four days!", she checked her answering machine. True, it surely wasn't updated. The date stated on the display was indeed 9/5/2004. "I could NOT have forgotten to reset my phone! I do this everyday!". Still wondering of how she could have forgotten, she went downstairs immediately. A sudden aroma filled her nostrils. "Mmmm. Pancakes!".

"Morning Hun"

"Morning Mom! Sausages and eggs again!", screamed Tea as she took her seat at the breakfast table. "Hey Tea! What are you talking about?", her brother said as she eyed her with quizzically. "Your nuts! "

"I surely can remember we had sausages and eggs a few days ago---"

"We haven't had sausages OR eggs for the longest time!"

"I remember! It was four days ago!"

"No way! Never!"

"Mom!", both shouted as they stood up from their seats. "Tea, your brother's right. We didn't have that kind of breakfast yesterday or for the past weeks Tea"

"Always thinking with your stomach Tea?", he said in a teasing tone. "Funny bro! What a real laugh", said Tea sarcastically. 'I can't believe this! I was real sure that I was right!'.

At School...

"Mortal, you are nuts. Even we weren't caught dead telling your story", Malik was jeering Joey who was now red in anger. "Come back and say that to my face old man!", shouted Joey when Marik turned his back only to look at him again, fuming. "Don't you dare call me like that again mortal! Sha-", he was cut off by everyone, knowing if he sent Joey to the shadow realm, their covers would be blown. "You were lucky!", and then he disappeared. "What's up guys?", asked Tea.

"Oh hey Tea!", Yugi said with a wave. "Tell me the truth, what were you doing?", said Tea in an I-can-see-right-thru-you sort of way. "Well, first, you ought to know you missed first period-"

"What?!!"

"I'm just right next to you! Please don't shout."

"Sorry. But really, I'm late? Don't we always start around eight fifteen every Friday?". Practically everyone stared at Tea's statement. "You're just as crazy as the rest of those mortals!", exclaimed Bakura as he threw his hands in the air.

"I don't get it! As far as I know, it was suppose to be Friday today", she murmured as she walked towards her seat. When she was slightly calmer, Joey and the others decided to approach her. "Even those big headed yamis are clueless with what we're saying..."

"And you're not, Kaiba?"

"Get a life Weeler!"

"Why you...!??"

As Joey and Kaiba were screwing each other, Tristan decided to start a conversation with Tea. "Hey Tea, what do you think happened?"

"I dunno... What's going on?!"

A long blonde-haired teenager stood by the window. The light of the candle illuminated his deep lavander eyes. He had a handsome face and a slender figure. He leaned by the window, deep in thought. 'Pathetic... This is just too easy... But the pharaoh's group is getting unto me. I'd better look out. These dumb minions of mine can't even do a simple job right!'

"Kitana-sama, the job is done."

"I hope you idiots didn't screw this mission up. It would cause all of you your lives!". 'The time is up my dear brother. Vengeance is now!'

Mizuki: And so ends this chappie.

Martina: When'd you start talking like that?

Mizuki: Hell you care! Anyway, don't forget to press the little button below that sez Go and Review!

Mizuki/Martina: Bye bye!!
