When Yugi looked to see who it was, he saw Kaiba and the blonde he was with the other night. Tea was relieved because she thought it was some mummies, and she didn't want to fight any. And she didn't think a couple of dance moves would do the trick either.

"Great! It was just these two losers." Kaiba said in annoyance.

"Hey Kaiba. Are you looking for the mummies also?" Yugi asked.

"Heh! As if. I have better things to do than look for some "mummies" when I could be at home getting some sleep for a new day's work."

Tea was about to say something in protest, but Ginny cut her off by saying that she heard some strange noises. When they all looked over, there were about five mummies coming towards them. Kaiba wanted to leave, but even he couldn't leave Yugi ans Tea to meet their fate in the afterlife. It would have been to pathetic of a way to die.

The mummies were about to attack, but them something happened. No one knew why, but they started to retreat. "They must have known better not to mess with me again." Kaiba said.

"You know Kaiba, everything isn't always about you. Just saying." Tea stated.

Kaiba just gave a grunt, and he and Ginny headed back the way they came. Yugi watched them leave. There was something about Ginny that is more than meets the eye. He wanted to find out what, but now wasn't the time to do so.

Yami and Kira were battleing some of the mummies. Yami had to admit that Kira was a pretty good fighter. He only wished he knew more about her past life. For all he knew, she could have been after his time, or possibly before it. But there was no time for wondering because things had to be dealt with now.

Kira looked over at Yami, who looked a little weak from battleing the mummies. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. It's just that my body isn't what it used to be I guess. Well until I get more rest."

She nodded in agreement. Plus she also knew that it was also because he doesn't have much of his memory back, so he doesn't really remember his skills. The mummy number started increasing! There was no way that Yami could keep on fighting the way he was now, and Kira knew it. So, she stepped infront of them and her necklace (the one that Cassandra uses to become Kira) started to glow. Then all of the mummies cried out and disappeared.

"Wow. How did you do that?" Yami asked.

"Well, my power isn't what it used to be. My heart holds no darkness, therefore the light from my spirit can get rid of the dark evil. I'll explain more when there is time." She told him.

The two were about to leave until they heard someone coming. They both thought that it might be Atemu because they had their seperate reasons for thinking so. But they were both shocked when they saw the person come forward.

"Bakura!" Yami yelled in shock and anger.

"Who is that?" Kira asked.

"Someone who doesn't need to be here at a time like this." Yami told her.

"Geez, relax Pharoh! Before you have a cow or something." Bakura told him. "I'm not here to hurt you surprisingly. I was actually following Atemu. Seeing as he is an enemy to me too, but that doesn't make us allies."

"You mean you've seen him?" Kira asked.

"Yes, but then he went into this dark portal, and I didn't know where he went. But I do know that he was watching you two."

Yami thought for a minute. If Atemu was watching them, then mayve he was also watching Yugi and the others. He told Kira that they should go back to find the others. The two left, leaving Bakura in the shadows watching.

Joey and Mai were running towards the scent Joey was smelling. She told him it had better not been some sort of food, or else she would hurt him for wasting their time. He swore it wasn't, seeing as he was a master at foods. They ran until they arrived at a group of mummies.

"See, I told you I smelt something bad. And it wasn't food." He told Mai.

"Fine, I'll you it to you this time." Mai said. Then she looked at the mummies. She noticed that they were surrounding something. "Hey Joey! Isn't that Marik?"

Joey looked over and saw Marik in the middle of a group of mummies. He was holding his own for right now. Though, Joey and Mai had to do something before the mummies became too much for him to handle alone. Joey jumped in and started to fight the mummies. Mai also jumped in for a little action.

"Watch out!" Mokuba yelled from the side as the mummies were attacking.

Then for some reason the mummies just began to leave. The walked off till they couldn't be seen.

"What was that all about?" Rebecca asked as she came from behind one of the cars.

Marik was just as puzzled as she was. He also didn't know why the mummies decided to leave on their own. Did someone call for them? Or did they just decide to leave? These were questions that were running through his mind as well as everyone else's there.

"I don't know what was up with that." Mai finally said. "Maybe we should go back to meet up with the others, and see if they found anything also."

They decided to take Mai's advice and got back to meet with the others in hopes that they found out more than they did.

Tristan and Duke went to go check out that unfamiliar sight that they saw. When they got there, they saw one mummy by itself.

"Ha! This should be a piece of cake!" Tristan said with excitement.

The two guys went for the mummy, but when they did, the mummy vanished.

"What happened?" Duke asked.

"I don't know man."

Duke looked at his watch and realized that it was time they should be heading back to meet up with the others. They hoped that the others found out more than they did about the mummies.

"Oh and by the way Tristan, I would so havea better chance with Serenity than you would." Duke added as they walked away.

"What! Kepp dreaming! Everyone knows that I am the man for Serenity. Just don't be jealous."

"As if I would ever be jealous of you!"

The two began to argue all the way back to the meeting spot.
