Good Morning Sunshine

Thursday Night… Moonrise
Robin woke with a start. She hated the summoning spell that made her appear as soon as the moonlight touched her puzzle. Out of habit she glanced at her Lunar items and was distressed to find the Yugi's Millennium Puzzle placed beside her items, well inside the trap's casting circle.
He wasn't? He couldn't be… Could he? There was a way of knowing for sure, but Robin had never been blessed with the true-sight. She checked her magic levels, and they were low. There would be no way for her to refill tonight, and maybe not for several nights to come. Could she afford to waste some magic just to satisfy a curiosity?
Then she noticed the lamp lights being turned off again. Why did the witch hate those lights so much? It wasn't as if they did anything, apart from blocking out the night sky.
Anyway if the M. puzzle was here maybe Yugi and his guardian would be too, but why hadn't Yugi appeared when she had if he was also caught in the "Evil trap of unending madness" as she thought of it.
Water, she would need water. She had to read the trap, it could be weaker now. They might be able to undo it. Now where had she left that bottle?
After a bit of hunting (that takes close to three hours) Robin finds where she hid her water bottle and carefully pours some out into her cupped hand. Using the water and a little bit of magic she scans the graveyard.
There was herself, and she quickly recognised her guardians, all tied into the lunar puzzle. She had never figured that, why they all were tied to the puzzle when the witch belonged to the wand and the dancer to the belt.
Then Robin turned her gaze to the unfamiliar. There was Yugi's guardian, hiding like she was, and his puzzle, but where was Yugi? She laughed when she realised, "Poor Yugi" She muttered. That would delay her plan, but not by much. She would just have to wait for Yugi to appear, and grab him quick.

Friday Morning… Sunrise
Yugi woke slowly, he felt dizzy and sick and none too happy. Opening his eyes he realised that the past day hadn't been a silly nightmare… and he was falling… again!
"Hi Yugi." Robin said as she followed him. "Aren't you fed up with this yet?"
"I don't know how to stop." Yugi said woefully before they fell through the floor of the crypt.
They reached the edge of the force field at the same time and were teleported back. Robin grabbed for Yugi's arm and they hung in mid-air. "Right why are you falling?" She asked.
"I don't know." Yugi replies and Robin just stared. "Someone who looked like you asked why I wasn't falling if I could pass through things, and then I couldn't stop falling."
Robin sighed. "Okay, so if the normal rules don't apply to you why would the law of gravity?" She asked curious now.
Yugi ummed, and started to float upwards. "Yugi stop that!" Robin said, annoyed now.
Yugi starts to panic, "I don't know how."
"If we go up the others will see us!" Robin takes a deep breath," Okay clear you mind. There's nothing wrong, gravity isn't going to let us float off into space."
"Robin? You just said gravity doesn't affect us? How will it stop us from just floating away?"
Robin considers the last few moments of conversation. "Yugi, look there's a pink elephant."
"What? Where?" And the pair drops back down to ground level.
"Right. Yugi I order you to stop thinking. First of all, let's find your guardian. He should still be sane, and we'll avoid mine if at all possible okay?"
"My Guardian?" Yugi asked while trying not to think too hard.
Robin stopped a moment and stared at Yugi, "You know; the spirit who looks like you but is taller."
"You mean Yami?"
"I guess so. Here; catch." Robin says as she throws a small stone at Yugi. Yugi catches it, and then drops it in surprise.
"How?"
"You expected to catch it, so you did. It's easier with practice, the only thing I can't touch…" and she glanced back.
They find Yami, but he isn't alone, the Witch is with him, and they are… talking. "Now what?" Yugi asks staring at the Witch.
"Okay first, Yami might not recognise you, actually scrape that, he won't recognise you. The spell won't let him."
"We are still…?" Yugi was starting to get used to Robin's stares whenever he said something silly or obvious.
"Is there something you would prefer to do while we are stuck here?" She asked sarcastically.
"Okay. But what if…?"
"I'll deal with it." Robin replied with a certainty she didn't feel.
They approach Yami and the Witch, Yugi with hope and Robin with trepidation.
Recognition flashed in Yami's eyes for a moment, but then confusion. "Yugi?" He asked but then shook his head, and anger started to form, "You're not Yugi."
The Witch stepped forward, in front of Yami. "Wait, I think the little fakes have a plan. Well?"
Robin replied. "I do."
