Chapter 9
Careful
"So how have you been doing?" Atem asked, shuffling his cards.
Tea managed to tell Raymond everything that happened. Surprisingly, Raymond was okay with it. Tea was afraid that he would be mad at her for getting caught, but that made the situation better for figuring out what's going on.
Tea and Atem sat on the floor to play Duel Monsters. The only thing was that Tea didn't have a deck of her own and they both went to the store to buy a deck for her. They walked back from the store and into the hotel room and Tea was happy to see that it was not to far from where Raymond was staying.
"I've been good." Tea answered, shuffling her cards.
She looked up and blushed as she saw Atem watching her closely.
"So how what does the afterlife look like?" Tea asked.
"I can't really explain what it looks like." Atem answered.
"Oh so your not allowed to tell or something." Tea said.
"No. It is really beautiful, but describing it is beyond words. You would have to see it for yourself." Atem said.
"Oh so it's that nice." Tea said, getting five cards in her hands.
Atem smiled and pulled up five cards in his hands.
"Well it's definitely beyond anyone can imagine." Atem said.
"Wow." Tea said.
"Well let's duel." Atem said.
Tea gave a light smile and nodded.
"I still can't believe that we ran into Tea." Joey said.
The gang with the exception of Kaiba and Ishizu were in the back talking to their look a likes. Mr. Mouto and Shada were in the other room looking reading some Egyptian handwriting. Everyone else stood in the next room.
"Well, we did wonder if she was okay and well I guess we can see she's alright." Yugi said, looking around the tomb.
"Yes, but don't you think it's a bit weird that she showed up where we are." Tristan said.
Mai shook her head and turned to see a tall, dark figure in the hallways.
"Hey who are you?" Mai asked.
Everyone turned the direction where Mai yelled. The figure began to run and everyone ran after him. Once they entered the hallway they stopped.
"He went that way!" Joey shouted.
Everyone turned the direction Joey ran in and followed behind him. They kept running until the figure appeared and Joey jumped on the figure.
"Got him!" Joey shouted.
"Wheeler get off!" A voice demanded.
That voice sounds familiar. Joey thought.
A light appeared and Joey gasped when he was on top Kaiba. Kaiba then kicked him in the stomach making Joey groaned as touched his stomach.
"Sorry, we saw someone ran down these halls." Yugi explained.
"Yeah, it wouldn't have been you tryin' to play a trick on us woulda" Joey said, getting up and still rubbing his stomach.
"No you underdog." Kaiba said, receiving some laughs from everyone, but Joey. "I was in the this room with Ishizu and then I heard something in hall and went to check it out."
"Yes we heard some noise out here." Ishizu said, walking out into the hallway.
"We saw someone out in the room with us. It looked like he or she was watching us." Mai said.
Raymond continued running out of the tomb and into the car. He drove off away from the tomb.
"Tea wasn't kidding when she said her friends were pretty sharp." Ramond said to himself.
He continued driving on down the road and was about to call head quarters, but changed his mind.
"Well at least I got a lead in the city." Raymond said, himself.
I just hope Tea is doing ok. Raymond thought.
Atem placed down the Dark Magician and smirk as Tea eyes widen.
"You lose." Atem said.
Tea sighed.
"Yeah well, dueling isn't really what I'm good at." Tea said.
"Oh yes it's dancing." Atem said.
Tea's eyes widen in shock.
"Y-You remembered that?" Tea stuttered.
"Yes. If it wasn't for that day I probably wouldn't have realized that I was pharaoh or have the courage to find out more about myself." Atem said.
"Oh I'm pretty sure you would've done just fine without me." Tea said.
"Trust me I wouldn't have known." Atem stated.
"Well, as I said dueling is just not me. I'm better with dancing than playing Duel Monsters." Tea said.
"You can do both. Like Yugi's grandpa." Atem said.
"Oh yes." Tea said, looking down at her watch.
She got up and began to gather her things.
"Okay I need to go. I only told my friend I'll be here for only awhile." Tea said.
Before Atem could say anything the door opened. The gang walked into the room.
"Hey Tea! Glad to see you up." Yugi said.
Tea nodded and headed for the door only to be block by Kaiba.
"Where are you going?" Kaiba asked.
"I need to go my friend is probably waiting for me back at the hotel and I've already been here long enough." Tea said.
"Oh how about I give you a ride back." Kaiba said.
"I'll be fine. I'll catch a cab." Tea said.
Kaiba is never this nice. Tea thought.
She made her way around Kaiba only to have her wrist caught. She turned around to see Mai's hand on her wrist.
"Well we should hang out. How about we meet you at a restaurant tomorrow at six p.m.?" Mai asked.
Tea didn't answer and was about to say no, but then Yugi spoke.
"Yes, we should catch up on since the gang is back together." Yugi said.
Tea gave a light sigh and nodded.
"Ok. I'll meet you in the lobby of this hotel at six-thirty p.m. I still need to hang out with my friend. My friend wanted me to meet someone." Tea said.
"Okay well we'll see you tomorrow." Joey said.
Tea nodded and walked out of the hotel room.
"If you think she'll be here then your making a mistake." Kaiba said.
"Not to worry she'll be here. We know Tea really well and we know she'll be here tomorrow." Yugi said.
"Yes, well there's a thing about keeping your enemies close." Kaiba said.
"Tea isn't our enemy." Serenity defended.
"No one saying she is we just think that there's something off sis." Joey said.
Atem walked toward the door and looked down at the Dark Magician Girl card. His puzzle and the card glow until Dark Magician Girl stood in front of him.
"Keep an eye on Tea." Atem commanded.
The Dark Magician Girl nodded and then vanished.
