It was the post round one ball.
All the teams involved, the members of their noble houses, and guest were in in attendance.
Yugi rapped his tail around Rebecca to hold her close, when he spotted some males of the blaze house looking at her. "I don't like this ball one bit!"
Rebecca looked around and shot the shadows, there skin was darker then the night, they were in dark leather armor, and they had one pure red eye on their foreheads, they had no hair but had horns coming out the top of their heads "Tell me about it The Shadow's house members are creepy!"
Duke looked as a Lady of the shine house passed by, like all members of the shine she was in a white formal wear, in her case a white ball gown, she had ghostly pale skin that appeared to glow, her hair was sliver colored, her eyes a pale sliver like blue.
Duke blinked, " I think the Shines are ghosts."
Miho shivered and hide behind took when a member of the shadow's blinked at her, "Miho scared by cyclopes"
Yugi lend against a wall holding Rebecca close as he looked to see his sister close to his step father with Golem right behind her. He watch Lilly think from the punch bowl
Kaiba then lend against the wall with him, "Yugi you have gained a new style, and I respect it."
Yugi rolled his eyes as he rapped a wing around Rebecca making her blush as he said. "I Don't care for being friendly with the enemy. After all, from what I hear cheating is a common thing in this tournament. And one round is over without a case of it. I don't like those odds"
Almost like clockwork Lilly faint and Yugi let go of Rebecca and rain to his sister, "LILLY!"
Later on in the Oceana house ships doctor's office.
The doctor had Lily in a bed, "Goodness she'll be fine, Back news her Flame flower allergy is behind this so she will be out for 24 hours."
Yugi's friends from the human world looked puzzled till Rebecca adjusted her glasses and said. "Flame flower is a Demonic flower that only grows in volcanic soil, Lilly has an allergy to it that makes her black out for 24 hours."
Neptune growled as he and Yugi's eyes glow red, "the Blaze are the only ones who have those flowers, they most have laced the punch with them!"
Yugi growled, "With her allergy public knowledge, they not only know it and had what it took to do it!" He made a fist. Before he turned to Joey and Kaiba, "Joey Kaiba a team is allowed two substitutes in case of emergence, and with my place being by my Little sister!"
Kaiba crossed his arms and said, "You want me and the mutt to take You and your sisters place on team Oceana. So you can stay by your sister, say no more, I would ask the same thing if I was in your shoes Yugi!"
Joey growled at the mutt comment before saying "Big brother's gat to stick together Yugi, so it's safe to say me and rich boy are in!" He then moved his thumb by his nose.
