I DO NOT OWN ANY CHARCTERS

Chapter 4

Kisara and Mana both stared down at the young child. Kisara's mind buzzed, she didn't know what to say. She decided to be a little more like Mana and push them along.

"A Kaiba? No way!" Since she wasn't good at being pushy her exclamation seemed more like an insult.

"But I am. I have my badge here." He reached for his pocket but Kisara stopped him at a second attempt.

"So you're his son then?" She instantly knew she was wrong for in response she got an awkward look. He heaved his shoulders and sighed, obviously annoyed.

"No I'm his brother, Mokuba Kaiba. How do you not know?"

"But I thought that he was really old. I guess I had some misleading information. Sorry."

Kisara glanced at Mana who stuck out her tongue and bonked herself on the head.

"I told you I haven't lived here long enough Kisara! So who was in the limo we saw earlier?"

"My big brother of course. Problems came about and Seto had to go sort them out. He's always working hard."

Kisara saw Mana's mouth moving, but felt herself slide away. Mana too stood still and looked slightly confused. The wind blew and a slightly familiar hot feeling fell on them. The wind ceased and Kisara looked around while Mana blinked and rubbed her eyes.

"Mana!? What happened to you?" Kisara covered her mouth in surprise. The blonde blue-eyed Mana had been replaced with a dark skinned, brown haired brown-eyed woman. Her white dress fluttered with the wind and Kisara noticed two black lines from her eyes when she faced her.

"What!? What do you mean? What's wrong?! Where's Mokuba? Where are we!?" Mana stomped her foot and flailed her arms yelling.

"Egypt! I was here before. But why am I here again? At least I'm the same age this time."

"So you weren't lying? Eek! Kisara! This what you'd meant?! My skin, it's so dark!"

"Mana look! I knew I saw that eye before. Look over there, at the palace! You see it? It was on Yugi's necklace too." Kisara pointed and stared at the eye carved into the front wall. Mana stared, silent and amazed. Suddenly the doors opened and Kisara quickly dropped her hand. Mana squeaked and tripped back farther away.

"K-Kisara…Maybe we should hide? I don't know what's going on!"

"Mana, I don't either but we can't just leave." Wind swirled again and she saw Mana's face light up but dim down again once the wind stopped.

"Wind brought us here…Maybe it'll take us back!"

"Shh! Look we're obviously here to see something, the doors are open." Mana hurried to hide behind Kisara, she peeked over her shoulder. Many people came out, some laughing and others nearly sick.

"A party took place here? Kisara look!" Kisara's head snapped to stare at a darker, slightly older and taller looking Yugi.

"I don't understand…"

"Let's go say hi!"

"Mana no!" She blocked the girl but continued staring, her attention turned to another person. He wore some blue and held a golden staff, with the familiar eye engraved into it.

"Se...To? Ugh! Mana? Did the name Seto sound familiar to you? Even, a little?"

Mana looked up at Kisara.

"Why do you get to still be pale? Seto? Hmm, just a little. I can't say familiar but it didn't sound very odd to me!" She smiled up at her.

"Hey, here comes the wind!" Kisara stared at the man until trees and people and birds began to replace her vision. She shook her head and looked back at Mokuba who didn't seem to notice that they'd left. She glanced at Mana and gasped. Mana sunk to the ground, the blush gone from her cheeks.

"Oh Mana. Are you okay?" Kisara moved to help her friend up.

"Ugh, I'll never time travel again!"

Mokuba looked at them, obviously confused and equally as shocked at Mana's collapse.

"What? Hey, are you going to be okay?" the young boy looked at Mana. She looked up and nodded meekly.

"Ah! Mana's strong. I'll be perfectly fine soon!" the blonde back to her normal look, jumped up but her knees buckled and she held onto Kisara for support.

"Mana! You shouldn't move too much. Maybe you ate something? I'm sorry Mokuba; I don't know why she's suddenly like this." Kisara bit her bottom lip and squeezed Mana's shoulder to assure her she'd be fine.

"Well, if you say so but." Mokuba looked down, deep in thought. Kisara stared at him, wondering what he was thinking about and why she and Mana were suddenly swept into Egypt.

"I'm not sure if I'm allowed but, if you two want, you can ride with me in another limo. You'll get here earlier than allowed but I'm feeling generous. I also like to help and she doesn't seem to be doing too well…" he seemed to be groping around for the right words but Kisara understood perfectly. She smiled gently at him.

"Thank you Mokuba. That's so thoughtful, we accept! What a great help." Mokuba sniffed and smiled. Mana seemed to be recharged just a little bit. She perked her head up and smiled brightly.

"We get to ride in a limo? Awesome, that's exciting! I've never been in a limo before!" she quickly put her head back down. Kisara shook her head and shrugged. Mokuba began walking; Kisara followed him while supporting Mana.

While in the limo, Kisara felt as if she'd been swept away into yet another world. Mana seemed to have recovered. Kisara watched as her excited friend stared at buttons and outside. Mokuba was preoccupied with some sort of device but jumped when Mana suddenly spoke.

"Hey Mokuba! Do I look like Dark Magician Girl to you?" She smiled the blush back to normal, and point at herself. Mokuba stared at her, Kisara found it funny how he seemed to be thinking seriously.

"Actually you do. I'd thought about asking you but didn't want to be rude."

"I'm thinking about cosplaying as her now. You being an important person helped me decided that I will!"

"A brother of an important person but I am just as useful." Kisara looked towards him and inhaled.

"So it was your brother who turned Kaiba Corp. into a nice place?" She didn't know how he'd respond. Would he be angry? Was the question too personal? Would he have a breakdown? To her surprise he just nodded. Mana ceased her activity and joined in.

"Sorry about before. I thought he was some old guy!" she poked a strand of hair from her bangs.

"No. He's a teenager. Maybe, around your ages." He shrugged his attention still on the device. Mana peered over.

"What's that you're fiddling with Mokuba?"

"Just a communication device. I think it's broken or there's something wrong. It works wherever, no matter the distance. But when my big brother went to Egypt a few months ago, I could contact him. Wonder why..."

Kisara rested her elbow on the window and placed her head onto her hand. She stared out at the passing buildings and people.

"Egypt? That's been coming up a lot today!"

Mokuba stopped to look up confused. Mana could seem to know when the right to stop talking was, she continued.

"Earlier today Kisara had a nightmare, the setting was Egypt, and earlier before too. Kisara and I just suddenly went back in time, into Egypt! That's why I wasn't feeling to well."

Mana smiled, Kisara turned her head, thinking fast, worried.

"A nightmare is a nightmare and Mana, before…we were just lightheaded. We hadn't drunk much water so the heat got to us and made it feel like we were in Egypt. You know? You must've drunk the least."

She winked hopping the message was sent through. Mokuba slowly put the device away. Mana looked confused but nodded. She understands right? Mana, we can't make ourselves look crazy!

"Well, if you two need something to drink you can find a lot when we get there. This will be soon too."

"Thanks Mokuba. So, you must be the youngest company owner." Kisara smiled. Change the subject! Mokuba shook his head.

"No. I don't own it. I gave my share to my brother years ago. I just help out, and go where I'm needed."

"Oh? But that's important too. In a sense you do own something, right?"

He shrugged and smiled.

"I guess so!"

The limo began to slow until it stopped. Outside they saw the front entrance and little stores. Kisara widened her eyes. Wow, it's neat looking. I can just see the roof of the building! The driver came around and opened the door. The girls got out first, then Mokuba. Kisara smiled.

"Wow! I'm speechless!"

Mokuba smiled and chuckled. Mana, fully recovered dashed across the way, in every direction, trying to take it all in. The two stared at her.

"Well, she recovered pretty fast."

"She's always like that. It's really nothing."

"Well, let's go in I guess."

Mana spun around, beaming.

"Alright! I can't wait to see the inside!"

Once they all got in, Mana continued to run around. She looked into almost every set up shop or store before Kisara and Mokuba reached half-way through.

"Since you guys shouldn't even be in here, could you please just stay in this general area? Sorry."

"Oh it's nothing, it's fine. Mana would die if she went somewhere else anyways. There's a limit to her excitement, hehee." Kisara waved at Mokuba as he walked towards the main building. Mana suddenly returned, out of breathe.

"I do! I do look like her! I really do! Come see Kisara!" she tugged at Kisara's hand and, running, led her towards someplace. After a little while longer they arrived in front of a store that had Duel Monster merchandise. Out side were figurines of the Dark Magician and his female counterpart along with some other monsters. Mana ran beside what could be her twin and mimicked the pose of her. Kisara glanced at the people working inside and nodded at Mana.

"Same hair color, eye color, and from here height complexion and figure! Wow Mana! You really could be…"

The shopkeeper burst out and glanced at Mana. He looked her up and down and looked from her to the Dark Magician Girl. Mana was stunned and remained posed, finally the man nodded.

"Perfect match! Is it all natural miss? We could use a person like you."

Mana nodded, Kisara stood staring.

"Please work for us. Our main shop is in the city here, but we're a large chain of stores! We need someone to help promote us even more."

Mana jumped up and laughed.

"I'll take it, I'll take it!"

The man laughed as well.

"Splendid! All you have to do is dress as the Dark Magician girl. Come inside, we'll discuss you pay, hours…"

Mana followed the man inside. When the door closed Kisara blinked, she was alone. The wind began to blow, Kisara flinched and ducked. When it stopped she opened her eyes, still here.

"Now I have a fear of wind." She chuckled to herself. She began to wander in a random direction. After a few minutes she came across a card shop. Also outside were monsters, but none that looked human. Her eyes were drawn to a white dragon. She went over and stared it. It was no taller than she, its wings spread out, its head held high and mouth open. She reached out her hand and touched the stomach. She blinked once then screamed. The sand swirled around, the dragon from the store hovering next to her.

"What the? No! No, no, no! What happened? Stop sending me here! Stop sending me to Egypt!"

Kisara shook her head violently. The dragon made a noise, flapping its wings to stay afloat. It nudged Kisara with its nose. She looked up; this dragon was not only alive but huge. She fell back, afraid. She heard laughter, it didn't sound nice. Kisara looked to the dragon again, this time she felt different like she was the one floating. A beast darted past her. She quickly jumped up, sand falling off of her brown dress from her nightmare.

"Yes pretty little lady! Run away, run! Ahahaha! Go again, charge again! Kill her; give all her power to me!" The man chuckled. Kisara turned and fell as she was narrowly hit. The dragon groaned, and then roared a powerful screech. Kisara nodded to it. She stood up, she didn't know what she was doing or how to do it, but she tired. She held her hand towards the beast controlled by the man.

"Go, White Dragon. Destroy the beast!"

The dragon swooped towards the beast. It looked angry as it charged with amazing force. Kisara stood shocked but soon felt it normal. I feel different. Why? And why am I controlling this dragon? Kisara felt a surge go through her body. The dragon's prey took a hit but was running away from it.

"White Dragon, use your beam!" she called. The dragon threw back its head, a blue light shot from its mouth, the beast disappeared and the man began to run.

Kisara removed her hand from its stomach. Now it was her turn, her knees buckled but she wouldn't dare touch the statue again.

"Hey. What are you doing here? It's half an hour until guests are allowed to enter."

Kisara looked towards the voice. A tall man in a blue and white suit was staring, expressionless towards Kisara. The man with the staff! No, it can't be. Kisara maybe you need a drink.

"Yes sir, but Mokuba Kaiba let my friend and me in. I need a drink. But we do have tickets…" her knees began to calm down. She stood up straight and looked up.

"So, my brother let you in? Fine. He usually knows what he's doing. Refreshments are over there." He pointed and turned away. Kisara stared; she couldn't tell his tone or mood. She glanced in the direction he'd pointed at. Thinks fast Kisara, do something now! My cheeks feel warm too…thank him!

"Thank you... Mr. Kaiba."

He stopped and looked back.

"Just Seto is fine."
