Hey! Well, most of the people who reviewed last chapter said that they would like to see a pairing between Alyssa and Yusei. I was shooting for that pairing when I started this fic, but I just thought I would get my awesome reader's opinions on it. I may throw in some other pairings. Not sure yet. Anyways, thank you to the following people who reviewed last chapter:

Agent of the Divine One: Yes, we shall see.

Skyline Stanza: Thanks for the advice. I just wanted to see if anyone wanted me to do an Aki/Yusei pairing.

GundamGirlie456: Thanks for the review.

SpanishPirate: Here's the next chapter. Ya, Rua can be annoying sometimes. The only pairing that I find weird is Aki/Yusei. I don't know why really, but I don't like that pairing.

Atemfan1: I was kind thinking that. I'm glad you liked the chapter.

Nigsea: Thanks. I'm glad this story is interesting.

Flamaij: Oh, surprise everyone I shall! ^.^

I would like to apologize for my lack of updating on this story recently. I have been meaning to put it up but between school, sports and getting the damn flu, I just haven't gotten around to it. Anyways, here is the next chapter.

Disclaimer: See last chapter.

Chapter Seven: Pay Back Is a Bitch

"Alyssa. Alyssa." a voice said softly. I could feel someone shaking my shoulder, trying to stir me.

"Five more minutes," I said sleepily, pulling the blankets over my head in the process. I laid there for a whole twenty seconds before something clicked in my brain and I shot up.

"I can talk!" I cried out in surprise as I turned to look at the person who was trying to wake me. It was Ruka and she looked surprised before she smiled.

"That's great. I guess you don't need to see the doctor about your voice now," Ruka said.

"Yeah," I said before hearing footsteps. I heard Tanner talking and I had a sudden flash of brilliance. I could get Tanner back big time. "Ruka, can you do me a favor and not let on that you know that I got my voice back? I want to freak out Tanner first."

"Okay. Sure," she said, nodding once before going and flipping through the channels on the television.

Grinning to myself, I sat up and pretended to watch television with Ruka. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Tanner and Rua enter the room. Tanner, once again, had the blow horn in his hand.

"Aw darn it," Rua said looking real disappointed, "She's up already."

Ruka and I just stared disbelievingly at Rua.

"Rua! How could you?!" Ruka said while pointing an accusatory finger at Rua then the blow horn.

"B-but....I-I.....Tanner told me to do it!" Rua blurted out.

Hearing this I turned and glared at Tanner. The jerk just gave me a cheeky grin. Oh, payback was going to be sweet. As Ruka continued to nag Rua about how rude it was to wake people with blow horns, Tanner went to the kitchen.

I got up, and since Ruka and Rua were fighting, neither of them saw me leave. I peeked around the doorway of the kitchen when I spotted Tanner standing at the counter, waiting for something to pop out of the toaster. Yanagi and Yusei were also there. As I watched silently, I saw Tanner start to inspect his reflection in the toaster. Seeing this perfect opprotunity, I backtracked a bit to where there was a wall with a window in it that joined with the rec room. It was high up enough, so that I couldn't be seen from the kitchen. The best part was that the window was right beside the toaster.

"Hey, shouldn't you have a license for being that ugly?" I asked in a rather high mousey like voice.

"Huh?" I heard Tanner say.

"Are you always this slow or is today a special day?" I asked once again in that high voice.

"Tanner, are you being insulted by a toaster?" I heard Yanagi ask.

"How can I be insulted by a toaster? It's an inanimate object," Tanner said.

"Are you sure it's wise to use your intire vocabulary in one sentence?" I said.

"Ruka and/or Rua, would you guys stop making fun of Tanner. It's not very nice," Yusei said.

"What are you talking about? We're right here," Rua said from some where in the kitchen.

"Then how the heck is this toaster talking?" Tanner said. Oh, I could just picture his face right now.

"Roses are red, violets are blue. God made me cool, what happened to you?" I sang in the mouse voice again.

I heard Rua, Ruka and Yanagi start to laugh. I was having trouble holding my laughter in as well.

'I should probably stop soon. They may figure it out if I go to far,' I thought to myself, and no sooner had I thought those words, then I heard Yusei say, "Where's Alyssa?"

"I think she went to the bathroom," Ruka said.

I didn't hear a response, so I figured that no one was going to question it. 'Thanks Ruka,' I thought to myself.

"Okay, a talking toaster defies all laws of nature," Yanagi said, "Tanner, what did you do to it? Did you break it?"

"No, I didn't break it! I didn't do anything to it!" Tanner said starting to go crazy.

"Oh you so broke me. You broke me when you looked at me," I said in the high voice again.

"WHAT! WHY YOU STUPID PIECE OF METAL! I'LL TEACH YOU TO....."

As I listened to Tanner freak out on the toaster, I knew I couldn't hold in my laughter much longer, so I quietly crawled away from the window and towards the couch. There I let my laughter loose. I laughed so hard, tears were running down my face and my sides hurt like a bitch. I don't think anyone heard me because Tanner was still yelling at the toaster.

"Oh god," I said out loud while whipping my eyes, "that was too funny."

"I see you got your voice back."

"Yeow!" I cried out as I whipped my head around. "Holy heck, Yanagi. Don't sneak up on me like that!"

"I didn't exactly sneak. You probably just didn't hear me because Tanner is still yelling at the toaster," Yanagi said before poking his head into the kitchen. "Hey, Tanner, the toaster wasn't talking. That was just Alyssa. She got her voice back."

"WHAT!?"

'Holy crap. He sounds annoyed. Maybe I can hide somewhere, but the Yanagi would probably give me away,' I thought to myself before kinda glaring at Yanagi. "Thanks a lot."

"You're welcome," he said while looking rather happy for someone that probably just signed my death warrant.

As he was talking, I was slowly inching my way to the door that led into the dining room. However, I had just gotten my foot in the doorway when I ran full blast into someone, taking that person out with me.

"Okay, that wasn't fun," I said out loud as I sat up.

"Yeah, well it wasn't really fun for me either," Solus said, rubbing his head.

"Sorry," I replied before I spotted Tanner, who looked like a raging bear. "Hey, Tanner. What's up?" I had put on what my friends back home called my puppy face.

"Oh, well, let's see," he said, getting more annoyed and madder every word, "You totally made me look like an idiot back there!"

"Well, what did you expect me to do? I wasn't just going to sit around and let you get away with all the crap that you pulled on me. You know what they say, pay back is a you know what," I said while crossing my arms and leaving out the last word for Rua and Ruka's sake.

This seemed to do the trick because Tanner kind of calmed down after that. Instead of saying anything, he just stomped over to the couch and sat down, looking cross. Smiling slightly, I pulled myself up before flopping onto the recliner.

"Um, do I want to know what that was all about?" Solus asked while looking between me and Tanner.

"Let's just say that if the rest of the day goes like the morning has, this should be very interesting," Yusei said while smiling a bit.

I couldn't believe it. Yusei Fudo was actually smiling. I had never seen him smile before now, and it was kind of werid. 'Wow, I think the world is going to come to an end,' I thought to myself, 'but he does have a nice smile. Wait, where the hell did that come from?'

"So, Solus, how has your morning been going?" Rua asked.

"Oh, pretty much the same way it does everyday. Boring and uneventful," Solus said.

"Well, do you want to come with us to help Alyssa pick out her deck?" Rua asked, grinning from ear to ear.

As hearing this, Solus turned and looked at me with a shocked look on his face. "You? Dueling?" Then he started to laugh.

"Hey," I said looking rather annoyed, "Why is me dueling so funny?"

"Because," he said between laughs, "you hate dueling."

"Well, if I'm going to be stuck in this world a long time I think I have the right to know how to duel!" I shot back, completely forgetting about the fact that only Ruka knew that I wasn't from the dimension.

"Wait, what do you mean by stuck?" Rua asked.

My eyes widened when I realized what I had said. I looked around me to see everyone's, except Ruka's, faces where rather curious. Yuesi and Tanner also looked suspisious.

'Aw shit,' I thought to myself, 'How the heck am I going to get out of this?'

Ooohhh cliffhanger, but not really. What will happen now that Alyssa has spilled her biggest secret? Find out next chapter, and thanks for reading this chapter. Sorry if it was lame or something. I have also put of a poll if anyone wants to vote. Bye.
