I OWN NOTHING, BUT MY OC'S AND ANY OTHER PERSON THAT APPERS IN HERE THAT'S NOT BEEN CREATED BY THE YU-GI-OH CREATER.

UDA: Ok the last two chapter's have some problems, so this one should be better and longer. There might be a sad part in it so beware. But there's still some funny, maybe. Also many people might run cause they think I made another oh-so-problem-filled-Mary Sue, I just think having no parents might fit my character.

Chapter Three: Nightmares and a Bad Mall Experience

Although Mizuki Ichiro had been there a week all ready there seemed to be a dark cloud still lingering over the Akatoko residence. Satoshi Akatoko, or Satoshi Sensei, had found Mizu a job, unfortunately it was working and cleaning the dojo on weekdays and working in the teahouse on the weekends.

"Yukiko your dad is pure evil!" Mizu wined as she flopped down on her bed in the room they shared. "I mean come on; the guy definitely has somethin' against me. Oh and if I have to be a practice doll for one more five-year old brat, I swear I'm gonna kill that son of a..."

"Hot chocolate girls?" Thankfully Mrs. Akatoko didn't hear the girl talking and gave Mizu the weekend off so Yukiko and her friends could show Mizu around the city Mr. Akatoko had denied her.

"Yes please!" They said to gather.

"Mizuki," Yukiko said once her mom left. "I know Dad can be rough around the edges and a little stern, but I think he likes you. I mean he did let you work in the dojo..."

"As a practice dummy and a janitor, and all I get out of it is room and board. I mean, I can't just walk up to your mother and say Oh! Can I have some money so I can go blow it at the mall; cause all I got is the three changes of clothes I could barely fit in my bag!" She said not meaning to be mean but it came out harshly in the end and Mrs. Akatoko had heard the whole thing.

"I'm sorry Mizuki. If I known that you weren't happy here I would have helped you find a job and an apartment." She said as she sat down the cups of hot chocolate and turned to go.

"Wait. Mrs. Akatoko..."

"Please call me Kasumi."

"Ok...Kasumi...I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. It's just Yukiko get's and allowance and...well...I don't and I think I've done a pretty good job keeping the dojo clean and in order and I've done a good job in the tea house, you even said so your self." Mizuki kept a solid look on her face although asking for an allowance and looking at Kasumi the whole time remind her of her own mother. I wish you were here mom. You and Mrs. Aka...Kasumi... would've made great friends.

Kasumi smiled at her with a newfound respect, like one a mother gives an independent daughter. "I'll talk to Satoshi." She said. "Maybe I can convince him to let us pay you at least something for all your hard work!"

A smile spread across Mizuki's face, which lately had been rare to see and couldn't help but jump up and hug her and then she hugged Trisha. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" Mizuki's voice seemed to squeak at the last 'thank you' that it made all three of them laugh.

"Welcome home big brother!" yelled an ebony haired little boy.

"Mokuba since when do you welcome me home?" Kaiba asked. He probably wants something I know it, I just know it. He thought. Mokuba had a big smile on his face that somehow turned into a sinister smile. Like that was a surprise, Kaiba new that when ever Mokuba had that smile on his face he was either planning something, wanted Kaiba to do something, like go the mall; yeah right, or he had a stray animal in his room.

"Don't tell me you forgot!" Mokuba said as innocent as he could. "You promised me that we would go to the mall on Saturday, remember, and Saturday's tomorrow!"

I knew it! Kaiba thought. "Ok. We'll go. But if we run into the geek squad there, I'm leaving. Got it." he said. Kaiba knew the geek squad, Yugi, Joey, Tea, Tristen, and their newest member Trisha, was going to be there. But he really wanted to meet Mizuki again. He'd taken a liking to her, especially after she and Wheeler got in a fight and she knocked the living day lights out of him. That was funny really. She's got a mean right hook, that's for sure. He thought.

"Hey Mokuba I think you better be getting off to bed, it's already nine o'clock." He said as he headed up stairs.

"Ok Seto. Goodnight!" Mokuba said and he hugged his brother one more time and race off to his bedroom. Kaiba smiled at the thought of his brother, a smile only saved for Mokuba. Since Kaiba really didn't smile or laugh or made friends, he still had at soft spot for his little brother.

Later that night.

"You are the one..." came a soft female voice that echoed from out of know were. " You are the one... you are… The White One." Kaiba shot strait up from the dream he was in. He was awake know and not surrounded by darkness with a ghostly voice haunting him. His breathing was raspy and he was sweating. Get a hold of your self. It was only a dream. But what did she mean by 'The White One'?

"Mizuki!" Yukiko yelled in her ear. "Mizuki wake up! Wake up!" Yukiko was yelling and shaking Mizu with enough force to wake a rock up. By now her parents had heard her yelling and came to see what was wrong. "Yukiko, what wrong?" Mrs. Akatoko asked. By now tears were streaming down the girl's face. She couldn't seem to get the words out but she look at her mom then at Mizuki. She was sweating and she was hot to the touch, and she looked like she was in pain.

/Mizuki just stood there completely scared. She couldn't say anything, she couldn't move. She just stood there and watched herself. Her eight year old self. She was crying and looking at the two adult bodies on the floor covered in their own blood. Mom. Dad. I've got to help them! The eighteen year old Mizu thought.

"Why!" the younger Mizuki yelled. "Why did you kill them Tokuma! Why!" Mizu turned to see her brother. She gave him a dirty look, one of pure hatred. He had the same black hair as her but his eyes were gray. He also has an army knife in his blood covered hand. He walked right through Mizuki till he came right front of her younger self. Then he bent down and hugged her.

"I'm sorry little sister, but I had to," He said stroking her hair. "Now I'll take you from your pain too." Mizuki once again couldn't move. Tokuma raised his knife and the Little Mizu saw out of the corner of her eye and moved just enough to avoid a stab but she got a large gash on her back instead.

Mizuki flinch as she saw her past and remembered the pain again. This made her brother angry and he grabbed Little Mizu by the hair. "I'll come back for you." he said in a voice that gave Mizuki goose bumps. "And I'll leave a mark so I know it's you." He raised his knife again cut vertical over her right eye and ended at the bottom of her cheek. He dropped her and disappeared. Mizuki suddenly found herself where her younger self had been, and the scar on her eye was bleeding.

"Mizuki wake up!" came a voice that was oddly familiar. "WAKE UP!"/

"Are you sure you want to go today?' Yukiko asked Mizuki after breakfast. Mizu nodded her head. She new it was only a nightmare and she was feeling much better. They were a block away from the Kame Shop, the shop Yugi and his grandfather owned and lived in, when Joey met up with them.

"Hey Mizuki, so ya ready ta see the great city of Domino, starin' wit the great hospitality of Joey Wheeler." he said as he put an arm around Mizuki's shoulders. She tensed up a bit but didn't try to pull away. "Oh and don't worry about Rich Boy, he's a pain in the butt and doesn't like ta make friends."

Rich Boy? Are they talking about Kaiba? Oh well, I bet Joey's just jealous that Kaiba has been nice to me. she thought as they walked up to Yugi's house/shop. Wait just a minute, if Joey's jealous of Kaiba does that mean that Joey likes me! Ewwwww!

"Hey guy's!" Tea called as she was running toward them. She had a light pink jacket and pink mini skirt, and yellow tube top. Yukiko was wearing a silver no-sleeve shirt and black pants. Everyone looked like normal mall-going teens and Mizuki felt out of place since she looked more gothic than anything. Black chain pants, blue shirt, a choker with spikes and black biker style gloves.

Yugi soon joined them and then Tristan, who brought Duke Devlin and Ryou Bakura. Duke had black hair that was in a pony tail, green eyes and had an earring on his left ear with a dice hanging from it. Bakura had white hair and brown eyes, and sounded British.

As soon as they stepped foot in the mall Tea's attitude changed. She hit every shop there was that had clothes in it, except the store Mizuki wanted to go to, the gothic ones. Mizu thought the girl was going to buy everything in the store, she and Yukiko was having the time of their lives, and Mizuki and the boys just wanted to leave.

"Hey, Tea." Mizu said as Tea came out of the dressing room.

"Yeah?" she asked cheerfully.

"Um... I...I...gotta go to the bathroom! I'll be right back!" Mizu lied.

"Ok. When we're done hear we're going to get something to eat ok. Meet us there." Yukiko said and pointed to a fast food restaurant. Mizu left quickly so the others wouldn't suggest she use the bathrooms in the store they were in.

"Man, she's good." Joey said

"Yeah, lucky girl" Tristan said as the others agreed.

Mizuki just walk around the mall not even going into any of the stores. She had a feeling someone wanted to meet her here, but who she didn't know and she couldn't shake the feeling.

"There you are Mizuki!"

God of all the things I've never ask for don't let it be...her thoughts we're cut short as Tea ran up beside her followed by Yukiko and the rest of the gang. "We waited for a half an hour why didn't you come back?" Tea asked.

"I got lost." was the oldest excuse in the book and Tea bought it like shoes that were on sale.

"Come on Mizuki we got one more store to hit then we can have lunch" Tea said as she grabbed Mizu's wrist and dragged her into another store.

"Come on Seto." Mokuba whined as his brother sat down at a table. "We only got three more floors to go through!"

"Well you already dragged me through all the stores on this floor but one." Kaiba said.

"Then let's go!" Mokuba said with a commanding voice, as if he was on a mission to see every store in this mall even if it was going to kill him. He grabbed Kaiba's wrist and pulled him into the same store Mizuki and the Geek Squad when into.

"Come on out and show us the new you!" Tea and Trisha said in a cheerful unison.

"No." was all Mizuki could get out of her mouth. She hated showing her legs. She hated the outfit Tea had picked out for her. Instead she got back into her normal clothes and stayed in the dressing room.

"Hey! Yugi!" came a kid's voice. "It's me Mokuba!" the kid ran over to meet his friends although they were older than him, Mokuba still considered them friends. Kaiba followed slowly behind. When they saw him they had to take a second look, because instead of his usual big white trench coat and long sleeves, had of course black pants and a black t-shirt. He also had a black wrist band on his right arm. He looked well, normal for once.

"Wow, I guess Rich Boy really can be normal!" Joey said.

"I guess you can look like a monkey, too Wheeler." Kaiba said in his normal unemotional voice.

"Kaiba!" came Mizu's voice and she open the dressing room door a little too quickly and lets just say, Kaiba meets door. Thankfully for Mizuki she didn't break his nose or caused it to bleed, she just left a big red mark on his face.

"Why is it that whenever we meet I end up bruised or bleeding?" he asked recalling to not only this accident but a few more that happened during the week.

"I'm sooo sorry Kaiba!" she said. Joey however was the only one who really found this funny and was laughing his head off that Seto Kaiba got hit by a door. His laughing was slowly pissing off the two of them, while the other's we're trying to get Joey to stop.

"Will you just shut up!" Kaiba and Mizuki said at the same time, something none of them planned.

Mokuba asked Yugi and Tea if he could stay with them since his brother was now in a bad mood thanks to Joey and Mizuki was irritated and just wanted to get away from Tea and her shopping madness and Joey, Duke, and Tristan who were slowly getting a crush on her.

So the two of them left. (I'm sorry for all the times I've accidentally hurt you.) she said telepathically. (How can I make it up to you?)

(Not sure. But I'll think of something.) he answered back.

UDA: well chapter three is over with, it's longer than the last two and no one really cares. I'LL TAKE FLAMES IF I MEANS PEOPLE ARE REALLY READING THIS! Oh well. See ya laters. The next chapter should be coming soon and it will probably be funny,… maybe.
