When Liz woke up the next morning, the suns' rays were just starting to pour through the windows. She yawned, and sat up, almost forgetting about last night, when she met Yami and put together the puzzle.

Walking over to her dresser, she pulled on a grey shirt, blue tunicae, dark green leggings, and brown slippers. After pulling her hair into a messy ponytail, she noticed the puzzle around her neck, and she remembered the night before.

Running down, she smelled fresh, buttered toast and scrambled hawkbat eggs. Her favorite! Sure enough, breakfast was on, and Mom was at work. Mara ran a successful shipping company, so she wasn't home much, and R2 was with Ben. Liz quickly ate her breakfast, before dashing off to school.

"Why are you in such a hurry, Liz," Yami inquired as the young girl ran towards the white marble elementary school. Liz groaned, "Because, there are a lot of gangs that beat up kids here at school. And I get beat up a lot." That ended the conversation, as Liz had just reached to school-grounds.

Just then, out of nowhere, a pocket knife flew through the air, slicing Liz's left cheek and her right hand, and landed in the ground next to her. As the blood began to trickle from the wounds, she collapsed to her knees and began to wail from the pain.

Yami wrapped his arms around Liz, who was still upset and quite frightened. The oldest of the group who had attacked her, Simon, walked over to Liz, and gave her a good sharp kick in the stomach, knocking the wind out of her. Liz cried out, and gasped for a breath, before collapsing to the ground and laying on her side.

By now, Yami had had enough! Nobody abused his vessel and got away with it, not while he was around.

That's when things got weird. A dense fog surrounded the three sixth-graders and Liz retreated to her soul room, while Yami took on human form.

"Who the hell are you," Simon demanded. Yami growled, "I am the protector of this little girl. What you have done to her is unforgivable. Prepare to pay!"

The three boys stared at Yami, ready for whatever was going to happen. Yami then explained, "What is going to happen is that I am going to hold an amount of money, and you three have to throw your knives into the through the largest pile!" Thus the Shadow Game commenced.

The boys were quite greedy, and as the leader, Simon went first. "HYAH," he shouted as he aimed for Yami's left hand. However, the knife did a 180, and wound up slicing Simon's left hand! "SHIT" shouted Simon, as he tried in vain to stop the flow of blood. The two other boys, who were now frightened, attempted the same thing, but met a similar fate!

While they were cowering in front of a triumphant Yami, Simon piped up, "Okay, we'll leave Skywalker alone," before fainting due to the loss of blood.

The grounds and the sky cleared up, and Liz reappeared, sat up, and upon seeing the boys, yelled, "Yami! You weren't supposed to hurt them," then began to sob softly. Yami placed a hand gently on her shoulder, "Don't worry, they'll be alright. See?"

Sure enough, the boys had begun to stir, and were running towards the nurse's office.

Liz smiled, "Thank you, Yami." Yami nodded and gently embraced the girl for a moment.

Then, the school bell rang, and Liz headed off to class.
