"Well, here we are. Home sweet home." Yugi said cheerfully, as he set down his suitcase. "We just need to get you all set up and…" Yugi paused.

"What's up?" Tristan asked.

"It's just that… Atem doesn't have any of the day-to-day stuff." Yugi answered. "No clothes, no bed, no birth certificate…"

"Have no fear, Yug'. Tristan and I can help you with da sleepin' arrangements." said Joey.

"And Atem and I can go shopping and get Kaiba to help with the papers." Tea chimed in.

"Well, guys, I guess you have your orders." Yugi said, going upstairs to unpack.

Atem suddenly found himself being dragged off by Tea. "Where are we going?" he asked, somewhat confused.

"We're going to the mall, silly."


Kame Game Shop, 1:18 pm

Yugi, Joey, and Tristan stared pensively at an empty space in Yugi's bedroom.

"Yug'?" Joey asked.

"Yeah, Joey?" Yugi responded absently.

"What is it we're tryin' to do here?"

"We're trying to get another bed." Yugi explained.

Tristan was confused. "But Yugi, you guys don't have another bed."

"I know."

"So basically, you're sayin' we're tryin' to make a bed out o' nothin'?" Joey stated incredulously.

"Exactly."

There was silence.

"How are we supposed to do dat?" Joey asked.

Yugi was exasperated. "I don't know."

Joey paused. "So what's our next course o' action?"

Yugi growled. "I don't know!"


Domino City Mall, 1:18 pm

"Uhh, Tea…" Atem said, buried beneath a growing pile of clothes.

"What is it, Atem?" Tea asked quietly as she threw more clothes on top of the pile that Atem held.

"Don't you think we have enough clothes?" he asked, his face now becoming hidden.

"Hmm…" Tea said, looking over the clothes they had already gotten. "I don't know." she said finally, turning back to the clothes rack.

Atem quickly made up an excuse to get out of that department. "Well, maybe we should focus on some of the other things I might need. We could always come back later."

Tea considered it. "… Alright."


Kame Game Shop, 1:37 pm

"Dude, it's a good thing that Atem's a brave guy." Tristan said as he helped Yugi and Joey drag up a spring mattress. "I don't think I'D sleep on that thing if I knew how long it had been in your guys' basement."

"He doesn't… have to know." Yugi said, panting slightly.

"Yug'!" Joey exclaimed at Yugi's odd behavior.

"What have we done to you, man?"


Kaiba Corp., 1:37 pm

Kaiba sat at his desk and pressed his fingers together. "Well, I suppose I do owe you geeks a favor." he said painfully. He glared at them. "And I hate owing people favors. I'll get you what you need."

"We appreciate it, Kaiba." Tea said, nodding appreciatively.

"Swell. Now get out of my office." he said shortly, going back to his laptop to go over some important stock figures.

Atem and Tea walked out of the building and picked up the bags of various items they had placed temporarily at the entrance. Tea was obviously thinking about something. "… You know, I don't think we got enough clothes…"


Kame Game Shop, 3:15 pm

Atem and Tea returned from shopping with an immense number of bags in hand.

"I think that went very well, don't you?" Tea chirped happily.

Before Atem could respond, he overheard an argument that seemed to be talking place upstairs.

"But isn't it traditional to give someone somethin' when dey move in?" Joey asked.

"Yes, but the point is to give them something that isn't already theirs!" Yugi retorted angrily, his voice rising in frustration.

Atem walked into Yugi's bedroom. "Our bedroom." he reminded himself mentally. That was going to take some getting used to.

"What is going on here?" he asked.

"Umm… nothin'." Joey said, trying in vain to hide a desk lamp behind his back.

Yugi held his hand to his forehead, mumbling something like "I'm surrounded by idiots."

Tristan, sitting on one of the now two beds in the room, hastily changed the subject. "So did you guys find everything?"

Atem nodded cheerfully. "Yes, we did. Much more than I need, in fact…" Atem said, glancing toward Tea.

"Hey! I was just trying to be prepared, you know!" Tea said.

"Guys, hold up! What happened to the pizza and action adventure movies we promised Atem?" Tristan said, trying to avoid another argument.

"Doesn't it seem like our whole life is an action adventure movie?" Yugi asked.

"Yeah, but since the Millennium Items have been put to rest, things should get back to normal, right?" Tea said.

Atem wondered. Would there be any more adventures for him? "… Right." he said. Things were going to be fine.


Kul Elna Ruins, 3:15 pm

He pulled himself out of the sand, shaking himself like a dog. "First things first." He thought to himself. "I need to get to Domino."

Bakura stood, laughing manically. "I will have my revenge… and I know just how to do it."
