"I...I..." Dark Yugi stammered.
"Spit it out," Jonouchi punched Dark Yugi.
"Jonouchi!" Anzu exclaimed.
"Shut-up Anzu!" Jonouchi snapped, he was about to hit her but Honda got in the way.
"What's wrong with you man?" Honda asked.
"You want me to hit you too!" He yelled.
"Jonouchi...that hurt," Yugi said.
Jonouchi paused a while, "I'm sorry Yugi, it's just that..."
"It's okay Jonouchi, I understand," Yugi said.
"No, Yugi, I'm sorry. I really miss Mai, you know?" Jonouchi said looking at him.
"But it doesn't mean you had to punch…" Anzu started.
"Its okay Anzu," Dark Yugi started again, "Jonouchi has his reasons."
"His reasons! What are you talking about? He just gave you a hit, hard!" Anzu exclaimed.
"I'm sure Yugi's darker side knows what he means Anzu," Bakura said. "Besides, he has been through a lot of pain in the past."
"Yes, your darker half would know that too Bakura," Dark Yugi stated. He got up holding himself. He managed to pull a smile through. "Let's go find Mai."
Honda and Jonouchi helped hold him up.
"Thanks, I don't know what I'd be thinking without you," Then Jonouchi stared at Honda.
Then a sudden rush of laughter came upon them.
"Hey...Why can't we... stop laughing" Jonouchi laughed.
"It's a trap! We got to get out of the way," Dark Yugi laughed.
Honda looked around to see if there was some way to escape. Then he looked up. "Guys, whatever you do, do notlook up!"
"It's the 2nd person isn't it!" Anzu exclaimed.
"This is such fun..." She was a mystic-like creature and moved her hands around like she was imagining someone small was in her hands.
She made a ring with her fingers and pretended to wrap it around someone's head and she squeezed it.
"Oh my, playing with dollies is such fun! Too bad no one ever came to play with dear little me, but now I have people dollies so they have to play with me!"
Dark Yugi looked up.
0o0Hey...isn't that Rebecca?0o0
XxI think so, what happened to her?xX
"Oh Yugi dolly, how I used to love you. Now you're just some jerk! You never loved me! DI-IE! Feel my pain!" She yelled.
0o0Rebecca!0o0
XxYugi! Are you okay?xX
0o0I feel like...Help me! I can't breathe!0o0
XxOh no!xX
"Yugi, that girl...she looks and sounds so familiar," Anzu laughed.
'Oh, how nice it is, I only wish that I could hear them scream instead of hearing them laugh...' She thought, 'Maybe I can.'
Then quickly everyone began to screech.
XxYugi are you okay? Let me take over!xX
0o0No! I can't let you, I can't get you in more pain now!0o0
XxYugi don't' be a fool!xX
0o0Then let me be a fo-0o0
XxYugi!xX
"Yugi" Honda cried out.
"Yu-ugi" Everyone else cried.
XxWake up Yugi...come onxX He couldn't prop Yugi up off of his stomach all he could to his yell. He was weak himself. XxThe pain is too strong Yugi; I don't think any of us will be able to go back home, to visit Sugoroku, to ever see your mother again.xX
Jonouchi saw Yugi passed out. That's when he felt things were out of hand. He then took all of his strength to yell out the one name, Rebecca. She stopped and looked around.
"Rebecca, who's behind this stuff?" Honda asked lying on his back not able to get up.
"I can't tell you." She stifled.
"Rebecca please, we have been having strange things happen to us since we've all been in New York. Please just help us in some way." Anzu said getting up enough power to put her hand on Rebecca's shoulder.
"I can't help you, but you'll be going to the last school. The high school, in that school people are held hostage by suicide bombers. Two of you will come out alive. But by the number of students and faculty in the one top room, lit up, it'll be hard to find your way back out and fast enough. The person is named Kojima. He's a master swordsman, vampire and is half mythical dragon."
"More old magic" Yugi yelped. He was still unable to awaken fully, but it seemed like Dark Yugi was getting somewhere with him.
Rebecca began again, "Kujaku is in on an underground system. Hurry to find her if any of you come out of the building. Because they plan on killing her."
Jonouchi's began to feel a twist in his stomach. He wished these things never happened.
'Why did they have to deal with Mai? How come it couldn't be simple like in the duel tournament where she was okay. This all began to seem like some game in life.' He got into deep thought about it all.
"Jonouchi," Bakura said, "are you ready?" We all have to go...life to the one who makes it."
Everyone hugged each other then went in. All the lights in the building were off in the first story. Anzu tried to turn a switch she had her hand on, but it shocked her. Unfortunately she didn't see the small light of wire hanging off the switch.
"Don't touch anything," Said Jonouchi.
"We got to stay together," Yugi stated.
"I think I heard someone breathing behind me," Bakura said.
