"I finished and I decided to follow you guys but you were quick so I finally caught up and I over heard of most you said. So...I'm in too!" Bakura said showing Jonouchi the ready-to-go thumbs up sign.

They started going in the same direction towards the city streetlights.

"There's the schools, but which one is it? They all have 3 lights at the top." Honda said.

"Hey, it's Hanasaki. What's he doing here?" Yugi questioned.

"Doesn't his father work in America?" Anzu asked.

"Yeah, but I didn't know that he worked here, in New York..." Jonouchi said.

"Yugi, hi..." Hanasaki said. His voice seemed colder than normal.

"Hey Hanasaki, what are you doing here?" Yugi asked.

"My father works in America. Remember?" Hanasaki said.

"Oh, yeah. I know what are you doing outside of a school building though?"

"Well, let me ask you a question." Hanasaki began.

"Okay, w-what is it?" Yugi replied.

"Will you...play a game with me?"

"A game?" Everyone but Yugi exclaimed.

"Sure...what kind?"

"Give me that thing around your neck."

XxDon't do it Yugi. There's something different about him. Would he ever seem like he'd act this way?xX

0o0Well, we have no choice but to try0o0

Yugi took his puzzle off, disconnecting his communication with his darkness.

"Thank you...I've heard about those ancient powers...and just to tell you," Hanasaki whispered in a dark and scary voice.

"Are you okay? This doesn't seem like you at all, Hanasaki!" Anzu exclaimed.

"That's because I am not Hanasaki,"

"Then...who are you?" Honda whispered.

"You don't remember me?" He said.

"What!" He exclaimed.

Honda took a few steps back towards the group. Silenced.

"I don't get it. You look like Hanasaki very well." Jonouchi said.

"Ah, Jonouchi. You'll be meeting your doom in about 2 months." The person said.

"How do you know my name?" Jonouchi exclaimed.

Then the man ran behind the building and disappeared when everyone chased after him on each side.

"Two more buildings to go," Dark Yugi said. Yugi was afraid that what would be facing ahead would be trouble.

0o0What did that guy mean by 'Two months?'0o0

XxI'm not quiet sure. But I don't want to wait and find out.xX

"Jonouchi, how do you expect to save Mai?" Anzu asked.

"I will wait...I have to. Something tells me that if I wait, then I won't have to do things before I think." Jonouchi answered.

"Way to use your mind, man." Honda backed him up, "I'm here to help you all the way."

"We all are," Dark Yugi said. Yugi nodded along mentally.

Anzu smiled and began to cry a bit, "I am sorry guys. I wanted you to just come to New York to watch me perform. But, it ended up being some kind of midnight terror house."

"It's okay Anzu. Besides, don't we always run into this kind of stuff?" Jonouchi said.

"Yeah, just like in Japan. It's nothing unusual to us at all. Don't mind it Anzu." Yugi said.

"I planned on staying here too. Anzu said. I wanted to live where I can dance, everyday. But why is it when I think things are going okay. They always turn out so...Un-comforting? I thought that the apartment I was living in was perfect. Then those vampires came. They made us live through Hell. We didn't do anything to them at all. Why do we always end up having the trouble?"

Dark Yugi began to get upset, "It's my fault. Is it true that ever since Yugi had this puzzle that his grandfather gave him there has been trouble? Is it true that I was the one who drove people insane? Is it true that I have hurt more people than people I am trying to save! Is it true that..."

"Pharaoh, stop it! It's not your fault. There are no regrets needed anymore. You've learned more things about friendship and love than about those shadow games that you were forced to learn. Those shadow games that took over your old memories. It's over. It's now okay to find new things. You know whom you used to be you're done. There is no regrets needed anymore, Pharaoh." Anzu replied.

"Besides, weren't you the one who had put us together? You gave Yugi wishes that he thought he'd never have. He wanted friends remember? You gave him that." Jonouchi said.

0o0They're right my Darkness. With out you I would have never thought that I could live through my freshman year.0o0

"Remember Pegasus, he stole Yugi's grandfather's soul. You retrieved it as you promised Yugi. You also saved Seto and Mokuba. With out you I don't think we would be where we are now." Honda added.

"Yes, but I...but, if the puzzle was never there. If I never existed Yugi's grandfather would've never have been taken." Dark Yugi explained.

"But, if you didn't save Yugi's grandfather. How do you think Yugi's life would've been? There would be nothing for him. You're the one who helps him to do what he does, to get him to higher status." Anzu said.

"I only helped once, I just want to get the message through that I have caused more harm to people than helping them." Dark Yugi.

"Stop being so stubborn! Pharaoh I don't' want to hurt you, but you're getting to that point where you are making me! Stop feeling sorry for yourself, stop acting like the world is going to fall and you have nothing to live up to anymore. Do you know what we need to do? Do you remember what we are going for now?" Jonouchi yelled, "If you didn't remember we are saving our friend Mai, remember that! Do you remember? Can you forget about feeling? Look man, do you know how many times we've had to go through this with you?"

"Yeah, would we be talking to you about things if we didn't care about you? We're trying to help you, trying to keep your mind straight. But if you are going to act this way then how do you want us to help you? Tell us," Honda said.
