Yami Yami Yugi: I'm back in time for Christmas! How are you? Miss me?

Jou: Well actually…

YYY: Don't answer.

Yugi: Can I?

YYY: Depends. Is your answer same as his?

Yugi: Uhh…

YYY: Then no. And now we get down to the important stuff. Today is going to be a slightly happier chapter.

Jou: It's gonna have magic, and reunions, and surprises, and laughs, and at the end there's gonna be…

YYY: Shut up! Do you wanna give the whole thing away?!?! Again, don't answer. Oh! And thanks to one of the readers who pointed out a mistake I made in a previous chapter with the collars. That was an old version of the story and I meant to delete it. It's fixed now.

"Yugi. Yugi." Yami gently shook him awake. "Come on. Wake up."

"Huh? Wha…" Yugi sat up and rubbed his eyes. "What's going on?"

"It's morning, that's what's going on. Now get up. We have some things to do today."

Yugi nodded and got out of bed. Once he was dressed Yami led him out of the room and down the hallway. "Where are we going Yami?"

"To see a friend. Don't worry, I think you'll like this."

They stopped at the other end of the hall in front of a silver door. Yami's puzzle glowed before he placed his hand on the door. It opened and he peaked in, just incase he was walking in on something.

"Seto?" No answer. He opened the door completely only to find that the room was empty. "I wonder where they went."

****

"Where are we going?"

"Why do you ask so many questions? It doesn't matter because you are going to find out in a matter of minutes anyway!"

Jounouchi growled and kept following. He gets woken up at the crack of dawn and gets yanked away to Ra knows where. He also had to wear these stupid clothes that made him Seto's possession. He sighed. 'Why me?'

At least one good thing came from all of this. He glanced down at his ankle. Last night just before he fell asleep Seto took the band off his leg.

'Hmm. Maybe I should test it out. Just to make sure I can.'

He grinned and extended his palm towards the ground in front of Seto, being careful that nobody noticed. His eyes glowed blue for a second before a small stream of water shot from his hand to the floor.

"Woah!" Jounouchi smirked.

'The eagle has landed… very hard on his butt I might add.'

"Damn. Where the hell did this come from!" He tried to stand up only to slip again.

A small giggle was heard behind them. Seto turned around to see a young girl watering some plants. "Why you little…" She let out a small yell before he sent her to the shadow realm.

Jounouchi gasped. "Bring her back! Hurry!"

"Why should I? She was probably the one who spilled the water, and she disrespected my by laughing."

"She wasn't laughing at you! She didn't even see you till you sent her to the shadows. So bring her back." He was getting nervous. It was his fault because he made Seto slip, and she wouldn't be able to survive in that realm for very long.

"I don't have the time. Now come on." The turned around and resumed walking.

"Please Master!" he begged grabbing his sleeve. Seto turned around and was about to say something but stopped when he saw the look he was getting. With the eyes and the face… The damn dog was giving the most pathetic look he had ever seen. Damn.

"… Oh fine!" A second later the little red head was in a heap on the floor, shaking. "Happy? Now move it puppy."

Jounouchi shot a concerned look at the girl before following. She looked… familiar…

Marik and Ryou nervously followed the guards. They were stopped in the middle of working and were being dragged off to who knows where.

'What did we do?' Ryou mouthed.

'I have no idea,' Marik answered.

"Hey! Keep up you two. You don't want to keep the Pharaoh waiting."

'Pharaoh!?' they both thought at the same time. Why did that not sound good.

The two of them were shoved into another room and the guards slammed the doors behind them. "Marik! Ryou!" Before either of their brains could put together a coherent thought they were tackled down by a multi-colored midget.

"Yugi!?" they both asked at the same time before bringing him in for a hug.

"You're alright!" Ryou exclaimed happily. "We were so worried."

Marik nodded. "I swear if that no good son of a bitch has done anything to hurt you I'll…"

"Marik, stop," Yugi held up his hand. "I'm fine. Yami's been really nice to me, really! It's been great."

"So he hasn't…"

"If he was planning on it he hasn't done it yet."

"Good, because…"

Yami shut the door to the room the three were in. It felt sort of wrong to be eavesdropping on their reunion. He paced in front of the entrance for a few moments before looking up to see his High Priestess coming towards him with her servant.

"What took so long Isis?"

"Forgive me my Pharaoh." She bowed. "Serenity came running to me in hysterics and took a while to calm her. Apparently the High Priest sent her to the shadow Realm while she was watering some plants. Then he brought he back a few minutes later for some reason."

The young girl beside her, Serenity, stepped forward. "Please forgive me. I am the one at fault."

"It's alright," Yami said. "But really should be going. Just make sure nobody goes into this room. I'd have a guard do this, but I'd feel more comfortable with you."

"It's no trouble, my Pharaoh. I have no plans, and Serenity can keep me company."

Yami nodded. "I'll be back in a hour at the most."

Jounouchi sat in a corner of the training room watching Seto and his little brother. He was teaching him some basic spells and battle tactics. Right now he was working on blocking attacks with both magic and body. He seemed to be having some trouble.

"Good Mokuba! Careful! Here comes another one." Seto continued to shout as Mokuba blocked and dodged a few more spells and light objects.

"Don't worry. I've got everything under…"

"Mokuba, on the left!"

"Huh?" He turned to get hit in the face with a small sack. It opened and got him covered with feathers.

"Mokuba." Seto half wined.

Jounouchi giggled as the young boy sneezed causing the feathers to jump and fly. He only laughed harder when both Mokuba and Seto were hit with another sack full of white powder.

"Hey!" Seto shouted, brushing the powder off. Jounouchi stopped laughing. "Do you think you could do better?"

Jounouchi gulped but then remembered he had his powers again. "Well actually," he stood up, "I think I'd like to try."

****

"There is something else," Yugi said after they caught up on a few things.

"What?"

"Well…" he started looking a little too innocent.

"Yes?"

~ I've got my powers back! ~ He said telepathically.

"YOU WHAT!"

****

YYY: I think that is a good place to leave it don't you?

*Readers look ready to start a riot*

YYY: *nervously* Hehehe… Well, I got it out fast, didn't I?

*Readers still don't look very happy.*

YYY: Umm…Well…

*Pitchforks and tomatoes start to appear.*

YYY: Ack! Yugi! Jou! Quick! Defensive distraction maneuver twelve!

Yugi and Jou: *hula dancing in grass skirts and playing ukuleles* *singing Lilo and Stitch opening song*
