Chapter 3
Door Number 1 (Part 2)

"Penny, should we be doing this?" Botan whispered to the small mirrored pendant. The deity chewed on her bottom lip out of nervousness. There was a momentary silence.

'Truth or comforting lie?' the pendant responded. Botan sweat-dropped and sighed.

'I'm doomed,' Botan sighed and stepped out into the hallway. She was shown to the dueling arena, which made her sweat drop again.

'This guy really likes his duel monsters doesn't he?' she questioned as she looked around at the painted walls of duel monsters.

"Go Botan!" Tea yelled and Botan looked over to the small group standing near. They came to watch her? She smiled brightly. The blunette was suddenly feeling very good about her situation and brightened up. Stepping onto the platform she waited for it to take her upward.

"I'm going to make you pay for insulting me," Seto Kaiba sneered from his own platform.

"You want to know how many de- I mean- people I've heard say that?" she scoffed, thinking back to the demon days with a smirk.

"Let's Duel!" they said in unison.

((AN- Ok, I give you permission to throw things at me, but I'm not good at writing duels. Plus I need to have Yami have a little talk with her in this chapter. So sorry guys, I'm not writing a duel scene))

"The magic card Angel's Grace strengthens the Ghost King, and the magic card Hell's Inferno strengthens my Fire Lord. Attack his life points directly!" Botan yelled and pointed to Seto.

'How!' was Seto's final thought before his life points were hit and they decreased to 0.

"BINGO!" Botan yelled as the game ended, showing her as the victor, by 500 points. As soon as her feet were on the ground again she was crowded by Yugi and his friends.

"Way to go, Botan-chan!" Tea cheered.

"You taught him!" Joey chimed in.

"You are welcome with us anytime!" Tristan added. Yugi stayed silent, watching the girl. Yami watched through the younger boy's eyes.

The old pharaoh was not the only watcher. Two red eyes looked on the scene with mild interest. The shadow of a smirk was curled on the edge of the figure's lips, but no one else would be able to see that. 'Well, look at that. She won her own fight,' the figure thought and disappeared in the shadows.

"NO! I WILL NOT ACCEPT THIS!" came an angered voice, full of rage towards the blue-haired girl.

"Cool down, Kaiba, you lost fair and square," Joey told him with a scowl. Seto was glaring menacingly. Yugi frowned. This wasn't the normal Seto Kaiba. Even though the normal was a jerk, granted, but this was almost sinister.

"Kaiba, what's wrong with you?" Yugi asked. Botan began to sense a weird aura. It couldn't be. She was in a different dimension, they couldn't be here.

Seto all of a sudden rushed after the group and lunged at Botan. Bubble-gum colored eyes widned.

'To hell with secrecy!' Botan's mind screamed.

WHACK-WHAP-BAM!

The body of Seto Kaiba hit the ground and Botan looked over him. She scowled at the body. The others were focused on the oar in her hand. It had come out of nowhere, about two seconds before Seto was hit with the wood weapon.

"Come out or I'll force you out the hard way," Botan glared down at the body as she growled out the command.

"Uh Botan, maybe you should-" Tea was interrupted when there was a small high-pitched grumble from Seto's body. A small green-skinned demon, no bigger than Botan's hand crawled out of Seto's collar.

Botan leaned down and picked the thing up by it's leg. It squeaked and raged at her, though it's rantings were barely heard. Her eyes narrowed at the demon and he stopped struggling.

"I'll deal with you later," the deity said and shoved the startled creature in her pocket. Yugi and his friends watch, flabbergasted. Botan sighed at their expressions. "I guess I have some explaining to do," the blue-haired girls laughed nervously. They nodded slowly.

"So, I'm really just on a long vacation," Botan said with a large smile. Seto lay in the bed at the other side of the room, while the others sat in random chairs around a coffee table.

The uncomfortable silence that followed started to get to Botan and she opened her mouth to ask for tea or something, but was beat to it.

"THAT'S SO COOL!" Joey and Tristan exclaimed at the same time. Tea clapped and smiled, nodding in agreement. Yugi smile and told Botan that it was an interesting life-style.

'Yugi, I want to talk to her, tonight,' Yami said suddenly. Yugi was surprised at his darker side's interest in the girl.

'You want to talk to Botan?' Yugi question as he stared past the girl, not paying attention. Botan caught his gaze and wondered what made him zone out.

"Yugi, are you alright?" Botan asked.

"Oh!" Yugi shook his head and nodded, laughing nervously. "Sorry, did I space out?"

"Just a bit."

That night Botan stayed in the guest bedroom at Yugi's grandfather's home. She had taken her hair out of its original style and let it down her back. She was finished brushing it as soon as there was a knock on the door.

"Come in," she called, still wearing day clothes. Yugi entered, somewhat flustered. He looked like he was a little nervous to be there.

"Um… Botan.. I was wondering if we, could, um.. Talk." the younger boy began, Botan oblivious to why he was nervous.

"Sure, Yugi, what is it you want to talk about?" the deity asked him.

"Well, maybe I should introduce you first. Please don't freak out," Yugi told her, knowing she would recognize the power switch.

"Yugi, what are you talki- WHOA!" She exclaimed as the puzzled pulsed with shadow magic and Yugi's form changed, becoming taller, and more mature looking. Yami stood before her.

"I'm Yami, Yugi's darker half. Well, sort of," the pharaoh said lamely. Botan blinked and took a moment to detach her hands from the arms of the chair she had been sitting in and set her feet on the floor again.

"Oh… ok then. Hi, I'm Botan," she began, thinking of no other way to begin a conversation with a split personality, er, person.

"I see what Yugi sees. It's a pleasure to meet you. You duel very well," he complimented, taking the other chair. Botan smiled.

"Thank you, but I have to say it really wasn't my doing," she confessed with an ironic laugh. Yami looked confused.

"The pendant helped me that's all," the blue-haired girl said, not really wanting to go into detail. Yami understood and didn't press the matter.

"So, why did you want to get away?" he asked her curiously. Botan took a moment to think out her answer.

"I just needed new surroundings, I guess," Botan answered. "My life, er, existence, was very routine and sometimes I'd have diversity when I was with my friends, but then they moved on and things fell back into routine."

"So a vacation seemed to be the answer. I see," Yami contemplated. Botan nodded and unclipped her card pouch from her belt and set it on the side table.

"So were you once alive?" Botan asked bluntly. Yami's eyes widened, a bit surprised by the question.

"I believe so. In the past," he said, his mind dwelling over split memories, confused thoughts, and distant feelings.

"I died too," she mentioned off-hand. The spiky-haired reincarnate looked to her. "A long time ago. I'm reminiscing over trivial things," she said and waved it away.

"How did you die?" Yami asked. "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to," he reassured her after seeing the nervous face.

"A grave mistake caused my demise," was all she said before she gave him a look that said 'I wish not to go further.' Yami nodded and stood.

"It was enlightening to talk to you, Ms. Botan," Yami said and Botan stood also. The deity nodded with a smile and shook his hand. Yami turned to leave.

"Oh, Yami!" she got his attention. He turned to look at her. "I'll be leaving early in the morning and I," she paused. "I think you should have this," a pale hand held out the 'Fire Lord' card. "It helped me beat Kaiba and I wont be needing it in the other dimensions. It's pretty strong, I believe," she babbled.

Yami stepped forward and took the card with a smile. He looked over the flame colored card and then to her.

"I'll treasure it. Thank you, Botan," he said and then left with a small bow. Botan grinned brightly and then got ready for bed.

Outside the bedroom a figure sat in the tree near the window. A smirk threatened to lift one side of the figure's lips, but he held it down and just leaned back against the trunk without a word.

"Bye Botan! Come back and visit anytime!" Tea called and waved to Botan. Joey hugged the girl and then released her, telling her she was an awesome duelist. Tristan shook her hand heartily.

Yugi smiled to Botan and fingered the card in his pocket. Yami watched all the exchanges with a smile.

"I'll seeya guys around," Botan said. Her sneakers began the trek towards the edge of town and when she reached there she looked down at the pendant.

"Ready Penny?" she asked.

'READY! DIMENSIONAL WARP COMMENSING!' the pendant's chipper voice rang through Botan's mind before she disappeared.
Her next destination was unknown, but it was sure to be interesting. Of course, it definitely wasn't routine.

Authoress: Phew! DONE! Thank you guys for reviewing. By the looks of it Hiei's in the lead with votes. I think it's more probable than Kurama, but it all depends on the votes!
