Disclamier: I NO OWN YGO.

Me: Once again, sorry short. And, as you can tell.. I'm kinda hooked on the Japanese names at the moment. Heh.. Enjoy!

Chapter 2 - Why?

A car stopped. A door slammed. The blonde stubbled, the brunette caught him as he fell.

Honda then looked up as he helped Jou to his feet. "Yuugi?!? How... I.. wha??"

Yuugi looked to both his friends, "I have returned to the two of you for a reason... I..." Yuugi looked away. "I wish it hadn't ended like it did.. I had so many things to say.. to both of you.. Anzu as well.. but mostly Jou.. I.." Yuugi looked ack at both of them, Jou a bit confused as well as shocked. "I still wish it can be different.."

"Yuugi.. what do you mean?" Honda asked, since Jou couldn't find his voice.

"I have been sent back.. Sent back as a warning.. a tool... Not a ghost... A.. well.. you could say memory, a memory with a purpose.."

"To do what?"

"As I said.. to warn... and to help."

Jou licked his lips. "With.. with what?"

"The man who.." Yuugi hesitated, "..who killed me has found a way to revive the dead. He's going to use that to make an army of unstoppabel beast to control the world. He wants the worlds most horrible villians. Hitler.. Blackbread, the pirate, witches from the past.. people of those sort.."

"..and your here to prevent that?"

"With your help.." Yuugi said, clearly avoiding something.

"Afterwards, what happens to you?" Jou asked.

"I..." Yuugi looked at Jou, "I go back to the way I was, dead.."

Jou looked down. "I see.." Jou didn't want to reveal to Yuugi what he felt within him. He had dreamed of a day like this, just slightly different. Yuugi alive, never to leave him.

Jou slouched back in the chair as Honda held the phone two feet away from him to avoid being deafened by Anzu's screams.

"Say WHAT?!?" Anzu yelled. "Yuugi?? How?? WHAT?? Honda, if this is a sick SICK joke, your DEAD."

"No, it's not, Anzu, just come over to my place, the three of us are here..." Honda hung up before he lost his hearing.

Yuugi was talking to Jou outside in the swing. "So.. Yuugi.. how do we handle this?"

"Well.. we could do it without his help.. but, for it to take a lot less work.. we need Grampa's help..."

"Uhh.." Jou looked away, his eyes tearing up.

"What is it, Jou?"

"I.. I'm sorry to break this to ya, buddy, but Gramps died a year ago.."
