Disclaimer: I don't own Yugi-Oh or Inuyasha!
AN: Fic is for DarkAngel048. My first Kag/Atem (a.k.a Yami Yugi) pairing.
BTW: In this fic Yugi's eyes will be Aqua Green and Atem's will be Violet. In the manga Yugi's are sometimes Aqua and sometimes they are Violet.
Kagome leaned back against the couch, that she was seated comfortably on, to dig in to the Veggie Lovers pizza that they had gotten. She was starving. How long had it been since she had eaten? She didn't know and didn't care at the moment.
"So Lady, do you have a name?" Joey asked.
"Joey! That is rude." Serenity scolded him.
"Hehe, sorry." Joey said and rubbed the back of his head.
"It's alright. My name is Kagome Higurashi." Kagome said and took a bite out of her pizza.
"Ok, Kagome. I'm Joey." Joey said.
"Tristan."
"Tea."
"Serenity, I'm Joeys' sister."
"Yugi Muto."
"I know who you are. My brother talks about you all the time. How he wants to be a great duelist like you or a soccer player." Kagome said sadly.
"What's wrong Kagome?" Tea asked.
"What is the date?" she asked.
"Why do you need to know that?" Tristan asked.
"I need to know how long I was trapped in that drawing." she said.
"Well today is June 30." Serenity informed her.
"2011?" she asked with horror tinging her voice.
"Yeah why?" Joey asked.
"Oh my goodness. I was trapped in that card for four months, almost five. My family probably thinks I'm dead and my friends... *Gasp* I left Shippo all alone for 500 years. I am a terrible mother." she sobbed out.
"Mother! 500 years!" they exclaimed.
"Bu... but your just 18, right?" Tea asked.
"Yeah I am. I'm not his real mother. He found me and I have taken care of him ever since." she said clearing it up some.
"I believe there is more to your story than you have let on." Yugi said.
Kagome looked at him sadly. He was right, there was so much more to her story than they knew. The question was, would they believe her? Or would they think she was nuts and needed to be locked in a Psych Ward?
"I need you to keep a clear open mind with what I am going to tell you." she said.
"Of course, we will try." Serenity said.
"I am a time traveler. I was 15 when I..." she began and didn't stop until she had finished with when Yugi summoned her from the card.
"Wow!" Joey said amazed.
"I detect no lie from her. The gods have told me as such, she is to effect our lives positively, especially mine." Atem said inside Yugi.
"I believe you." Yugi said.
"Thank You." Kagome smiled.
Kagome looked in Yugi's eyes and for a split second she saw them change from Aqua Green to Violet. It reminded her that she had someone she wished to speak to.
"Yugi may I speak to him?" she asked.
"Who?" Joey asked.
"Yami." Tea informed him.
"You wish to speak with me Priestess?" Atem asked as they changed.
"Yes, my Lord." she said with a bow.
"I am not your Lord." he said.
"As I am just a Priestess and you are a Pharoh, it is only respect that I address you by a title." she said to him.
Atem smiled. She knew her place in Heirarchy, even if now it was very outdated and out of the norm for a girl of her original era. But as she had told them she was a time traveler and was friends with Lords of Fuedal Japan. She was an intriguing girl.
"You may stand." he said and she sat up but did not stand.
"Thank you, my Lord." she said.
"What is it that you wish to speak with me about, Priestess?" he asked.
"Please, my Lord, call me by my given name, Kagome." she said and bowed her head.
"Kagome. I am Atem." he said and that was a signal to continue.
"Hey why did you tell her your name but never us?" Joey asked offended.
Kagome and Atem ignored him and went about what they had been before being interuppted.
"Why are you here my Lord?" she asked.
"I have no idea as to why I am back. I have already seperated myself and had returned to the spirit world but under some kind of circumstance I have returned to Yugis' body." he answered what he could.
"I see. How did you get in his body to begin with?" she asked.
"That is a tale that will take some time to tell." he said with all seriousness.
"I have plenty of time. I can always see my family in a couple of days, I have already been gone for about 5 months, they can wait a couple more days." she said.
Atem nodded and told her his story. He told her about his battles in Ancient Egypt and how he had lost them and then how he sealed Zorc Necrophades, exchanged his life to seal him, shattered the Millenium Puzzle and had gestured to the gold pyramid around his neck. He told her that the peices of it had been placed in his tomb as which they had held his soul. Then how Yugis' grandfather had found the Millenium Puzzle and had given it to Yugi, that was how he had first became a part of Yugi.
Kagome had listened intently. It was fascinating to say the least to know his story. She didn't know how he had ended up back in Yugis' body but from what she could guess, they were supposed to be near one another. Yugi was to learn from him and vice versa but she didn't understand why they had to share a body, especially after he had been released once. Couldn't the kami have given him his own body?
It struck her. She could give him his own body! She had studied it when she was in the Fuedal Era. She knew that Inuyasha loved Kikyo so much and she had thought that if she could give Kikyo back a living body that Inuyasha would be happy and Kikyo would also be happier.
She had thought about it the first time when she had found Kikyo in the miasma that Naraku had dumped her in and she had inturned saved her. Then again when the two were in that cave that ate mikos, monks, priests, and priestesses. She could sense the sadness in Kikyo even though she tried her hardest to keep everything concealed but her anger. Kagome knew that Kikyo wanted to be with Inuyasha and that was why she was determined to take him to Hell with her.
She had waited until it was a time for her to go home but instead of going straight home she had went to a temple and had found forbidden dark Priest and Priestess scrolls. She had taken them with her and had went through the well and studied them. She found that all it took was a small portion of the departed soul to bring someone back and to have either the original body or use the method that Urasue had used. Then all she had to do was use the power that the Kami had graced her with to ground the soul to the body and make it real by giving over a small portion of her power. She could do the same with Atem but she had to be careful or she would extert too much power and exhaust herself or severly hurt herself.
"I can give you your own body." she said.
"What?" he asked in disbelief.
''How?" Tea asked.
"Do you know where I can get to your original body and a kiln and silt?" she asked with a smile on her face.
"Yeah. His original body is in the museum and as for the kiln and silt, Serenity makes ceramics." Tristan informed her.
"Now I have a question." she said and they looked at her expectantly.
"How do you feel about breaking and entering?" she asked very seriously.
