Seto and Hiei finally stopped sneering each other's name but it was half an hour's good work. She suddenly heard voices outside her door. She smiled, they noticed Hiei was missing she was guessing. They knocked. She heard Joey, in the hallway, [So is he relaying what I was talking about.] She 'listened' intently. "She said I don't want to duel her. I don't think she means you too though, I'm am darn sure you could beat her no matter what new card she has." Claudia smiled. The knock came again.

"Come in," Claudia said very softly. But Kurama had heard and opened the door. She could hear Yusuke's yelling better. He was at the stairs - which was a ways from her apartment - yelling at Kuwabara for following them. He had told him to wait for them. Obviously he was found of the fellow just didn't appreciate his protective so called loyal side. "Yusuke would you just shove off?" Claudia yelled finally. She heard Yusuke tell Kuwabara he was lucky she was there. But he stomped to the apartment Kuwabara at his hills like a puppy carrying what looked like a weird looking penguin with bunny-like ears. She would have thought it to be a stuff animal. She had in the street. But now that she looked at it, she could tell it was alive.

Puu bounced around the apartment he seemed very excited and happy. Claudia laughed at his antics. But ran after him when he went into the kitchen and Vixon started freaking out. Seto had even warmed up to the little blue character. "Is he always like this." Seto asked after a while of Puu bothering him wile he was trying to work something out on his laptop.

"No," Kurama smiled mischievously, "he shows Yusuke's inner emotions. I haven't seen Puu this happy since he hatched."

Yusuke sneered at him and Puu began to calm down and started looking slightly mad. "Puu!" He said loudly. Kurama, Hiei, and Claudia laughed. Seto sighed and went back to his computer work. While Kuwabara tried to keep Yusuke from doing something rash. But slowly Puu began to jump around again in happiness and excitement.

"Would you be willing to make something that would help ward off her exhaustion?" Yusuke asked. She was sleeping again, resting her head on Seto's shoulder since his computer occupied his lap. Hiei was sitting in the window seal glareing at Seto.

"I might, but I need to know what has caused it." Kurama said looking at Claudia with a worried expression on his face.

"Well, I'm not exactly sure what caused it. I haven't really had a chance to talk to Seto about it." Yusuke rubbed the back of his neck. "Besides it could easily have just been energy and power loss."

"What are you two whispering about?" Seto asked finally looking up from his computer. He had heard something about energy and power loss. What in the world was it about?

"We need to figure out what has made her," Kurama gestured toward Claudia, "so tiered.

Seto sighed, and then told the story all over again.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She screamed. "I don't know of any such puzzle."

"You lie, I know you communicate with the one who possesses the Millennium Puzzle." He said in a cold voice. Claudia just stared. She wouldn't give up.

"I do not." She concentrated all her power to her Talisman; the man didn't notice it as it began to glow softly. "But I know who does, go down to the bottom level. You shall meet the one who knows all about the Puzzle and the other Millennium Items." She lied but was able to contact who did live down there. //Please help me. A man is going to be coming down. Please don't kill him but hold him down there long enough for me to escape.\\ There was no answer, but she felt like her plan would work.

Claudia woke with a start. She shook her head viciously. "I have to keep my eye on Yami." She mumbled ignoring everyone in the room that was keeping an eye on her. She walked into the kitchen to get a glass of water but instead she decided to try the potion her sister had sent her. She swallowed it, and almost gagged. Her sister's potions were the worst she quickly drank some water. The disgust quickly went away, she could feel the potion as it began to work. Her sister knew how to concoct anything. Even if the wizarding world didn't.

"Why do you need to keep an eye on me?" Yami was standing in the doorway. He looked suspicious.

"What are you talking about Yugi?" She questioned. But she knew it was no use.
