Hi I'm soo sorry I haven't been able to update I was in Florida for a week at my grandma's and she doesn't have a computer in her house there : ( Here's another chapter I did! Yay me! I have so many ideas for chapters I just have to see how they will work out. Don't worry the action will begin soon. ; ) Okay thanks for reviewing so far! I think I'm getting the hang of this.
Kakashixangela-thank you for telling me about Seto's little attitude slip there! I let my cousin help me with some things so yea...well also thanks for the part about where she lives, ; ) I promise my information will be more accurate.
It helps me greatly when you guys correct me like that and for the ideas. I appreciate your help. Now for the chapter.
Chapter 3
___~~*~~___
Once everyone put their shopping bags away,everyone meaning only Yuka, Mimi, and Anzu since they were the only people who bought something, they all got into their cars and Kagome was starting to walk home when Tristan offered her a ride home. Kagome agreed and got into the car. Yuka had just gotten her license so she was driving Mimi, Anzu, Bakura, and Mokuba leaving Kagome to go with all the other guys.
She sat in between Yugi and Seto in the back while Joey sat up front with Tristan. Kagome sighed as Tristan was speeding down the road with Joey yelling at him and Yugi seemed to be deep in thought with himself while Seto was staring out the window. Kagome just leaned back in the leather seat and started humming.
With Yugi(in his mind)
____-~-____
(Atem speaking Yugi speaking)
She's really interesting. Yugi sighed.
She seems to have an item.
Huh?
Atem shook his head I mean that she has an ancient Egyptian item with her.
Oh really? That's odd. So what should I do.
Ask if you could talk to her at her house and tell her everything.
Everything?But we barely even know her.
Yes everything, about me and Egypt. And anything else. I know that we just met her but the power coming from her is strong and she may be important.
Alright I can do this. But she's really pretty and what if I mess up?
Atem sighed in annoyance. I admit she is very *ahem* attractive, but you have to.
So you have a crush on her too don't you?
When Atem didn't answer Yugi started laughing.
Shut your mouth and just ask her.
Alright sure thing!
________-~-_______
Yugi kept thinking over and over again what to say without embarrassing himself in front of her and the others.
I wonder if it would be okay to go to Kagome's house but how do I ask her.
Kagome smiled to herself. She usually didn't just barge in on other people's thoughts but she sensed another presence within Yugi and wanted to find out what it was but that thought was all she got.
Aww I think I should be nice and save him the trouble of embarrassing himself and just ask him. Kagome thought.
Tristan pulled up to the curb in front of the shrine steps and Kagome turned to Yugi as he was about to say something. "Yugi, do you want to come to my house?"
Tristan smiled knowingly along with Joey and Seto just rolled his eyes. Yugi blinked a few times before smiling and accepting the offer. That made things so much easier. It's as if she can read minds! Thought Yugi while he got out of the car with Kagome. Seto just turned and looked away not wanting to see them both together. For some reason seeing her with the other guys made him feel very annoyed. Sure he had been annoyed by them before but this was different.
Kagome caught what Seto was thinking and snorted. He kind of sounds like a mix between Sesshomaru and Inuyasha.
Once Tristan pulled away, Kagome and Yugi ran up the steps. Yugi got to the top first and then helped Kagome up the last few steps.
"Thanks Yugi." Kagome panted bending over her knees trying to catch her breath. Yugi smiled at her and waited for her to lead the way to her house. Kagome walked up to the door and opened it dragging Yugi inside behind her. Her mother was the first to greet her. "Welcome home Kagome. May I ask who's this?" Then Souta came in with his sleeping bag over his shoulders and stood shyly behind his mother, staring at Yugi. And last, before Kagome could actually say anything her grandfather came into the room and looked Yugi over carefully before smiling and poking Yugi in the forehead.
Yugi blinked and Kagome held in a giggle. "Everyone this is Yugi Motou. Yuka and Mimi introduced us to each other today in the mall along with his other friends." Kagome frowned when her grandfather started poking Yugi's hair and looked at her mother for help. Her mother just sighed and pulled the old man back. He seems to be getting a little more older and delusional each day poor thing.
Souta walked up to him and put his hand out in front of him. "Hi, I'm Souta, Kagome's brother."
Yugi smiled and shook his hand. "It's nice to meet you Souta."
Kagome glanced at the sleeping bag hanging on Souta's shoulder in question. Souta grinned at his sister. "We're going to Grandma Tagia's house for the next few days." Kagome nodded her head in understanding. Her mother smiled in Yugi's direction and looked back to her daughter.
"You can stay Kagome, since you have school and training to do. Yugi can stay awhile if he wants." Her mother looked at both of them. Kagome sighed in annoyance. I knew she was up to something. Figures, Mamma's playing matchmaker again.
Kagome put on her best smile and asked Yugi, "Would you like some tea?" Yugi smiled at her and nodded. Kagome quickly grabbed his hand and took him to the kitchen, glad for an excuse to be away for her family.
She heard her mother day goodbye and then the door shut. She grinned at Yugi. "Whew! You know, you're the luckiest person to come to my house. Usually my grandfather would throw sutras at people and tell them to 'Begone Evil Demon!' its actually pretty amusing."
Yugi shrugged. "I didn't think that it was bad. So is your grandpa divorced?"
Kagome motioned for him to sit down on the chair next to the one she just sat in. "No, she's the grandma on my father's side of the family, my grandpa is on my mom's side of the family." Yugi nodded then blushed a little. "Um, I don't want to impose, be rude or anything like that but, do you have a father?"
Kagome looked out the kitchen window. "Kind of. I mean he just disappeared one day. He was helping my gradfather, the one on his side, with moving some old storage items for the shrine house into the backyard. My mom said that when she and her mother-in-law, my grandma went to go get them for dinner they were gone. Both of them, the boxes they were caring had been thrown off to the side by the well house."
Yugi frowned. "I'm sorry I really shouldn't have asked."
Kagome smiled at him. "Don't worry about it. It was nice to actually talk to someone about it."
Now that I think about it though, they were moving things by the well house and maybe they f-
But Kagome was cut off in her thinking when Yugi started calling her name and asking her if she was all right. She nodded at him. "I'm fine. So is there anything you wanted to tell me?" She was playing with a strand of her hair in between her fingers. Yugi looked at her. How did she know that there was something I wanted to tell her. I told you there was something special about her. Atem's voice echoed through his mind.
Yugi then shifted around uncomfortably. "uh yeah but, do you mind if we sit on the couch, this chair isn't exactly comfortable. Kagome laughed. "Yeah all right my butt's starting to hurt too."
Yugi blushed a little but followed Kagome to the living room. Kagome plopped down on the couch next to Yugi and stretched. "So what did you want to tell me?"
"Oh well, you have a millenium item, right?" He glanced nervously at Kagome. She sighed and looked at him. "Yeah I do, well its not really a millenium item. It's just an ankh that makes me the guardian the the great kingdoms. Even though I really don't know what they are." she took the golden ankh out of her pocket and stared at it. It's red jewel in the center glowing brightly along with the rest the ankh.
Atem, who was listening in, stared in shock at the girl. She's the kingdoms' guardian?
"Yeah, I guess you're right. The millenium ankh belongs to Shadi." Yugi said deep in thought.
"Who?" Kagome asked puzzled. "Oh, he's someone who, well, um, I don't really know how to explain."
"Right. So tell me how you have the Millenium Puzzle?" Kagome rested her head on her hands.
Yugi fidgeted. "So you know about that too, huh? Well, my grandpa gave it to me and I solved the puzzle,then..." Kagome listened intently as he told her everything that's happened too him including that he has Atem withing him.
"Cool!" was the first thing that came out of her mouth. "And I thought I was the only one to go on crazy adventures. Can you keep a secret?" Kagome put a finger to her lips and winked at him.
"S-sure." Yugi stuttered. Then Kagome told him her story about the Feudal Era and everyone she met there. Along with how she came in the possession of the Ankh.
"One more thing," Kagome questioned him. "what other millenium items are there? The only one I knew of was the puzzle."
"Well, there's the Ankh, which I was talking about before, is owned by Shadi, it lets whoever possesses it look into someone's heart and see their personality. Then there is the scale which is also owned by Shadi which lets him judge people, there's the millenium eye which an American guy who created the game duel monsters, has. It lets him see into other people's minds. The millenium Tauk is said to be in the possession of the goddess Isis. It allows the owner to see into the future. The last two are the millenium ring and the millenium rod. The ring is owned by Bakura who also has the split personality(I forget what its called so bear with me!) It allows the owner to detect the other items and last the rod is currently owned by Malik who also has the evil side to him." As he finished, Kagome noticed his expression darken when he was talking about the last two names.
"Alright, thanks for telling me that. I'm guessing that this Bakura and Malik are your enemies. Am I right?" Kagome raised an eyebrow at him.
Yugi sighed, "Sometimes it's hard to know who's on our side and who isn't anymore. So I guess it's getting kind of late. I should go." he yawned and stood up. Kagome also got up and walked him to the door. "Alright I'll see you around."
"Yeah, I guess so. Bye." Yugi walked out the door and Kagome watched him walk down the stairs of the shrine and giggled when she heard the familiar beeping of Tristan's car. So they were waiting here this whole time, I hope I didn't keep Yugi too long. She turned around and shut the door. Kagome glanced at the clock and grabbed her brown bag by the wall. She put it in the kitchen and opened up some of the cabinets. "Might as well get some things ready for tomorrow's trip." she muttered to herself. It would take a whole lot of ramen to even talk to him about how wrong he is about Kikyo.
~`~`~`~****~~~~~
With Yugi and friends
~~~***~~~~~~~
Yugi was surprised to hear Tristan's car beeping at him. He didn't think they would actually wait for him this whole time. He opened the door slowly and got in. Joey smirked at him. "Hey Yugi what took so long? Did ya kiss her?" Yugi blushed "No. We were just talking." Tristan turned and grinned at Yugi from the driver's seat. "So what were you talking about?" Yugi just shrugged, "Stuff."
Joey leaned closer. "What kind of stuff?" Seto sighed in annoyance. "Why don't we just go now." Yugi nodded his head. "That's a great idea come on guys, my grandpa is going to be worried about me."
Tristan sighed. "Alright alright chill." he turned back in his seat and pressed on the gas petal with his foot. "But don't think we're letting this conversation go. We'll talk more later."
Yugi gulped and tried to move as far away as he could from his two friends.
