A/N: I had a lot of stuff going on very sad stuff so I'll give you people this chapter. Also this story takes place after Yusei saved the world and before the whole crew split up.

Chapter 2

Am I seeing things?

I sat in my seat perfectly silent and annoyed at my mom and therapist. They could beg, bribe or even threaten me and I still won't tell them what's wrong. Why can't they see this is something I want to deal with on my own. Hell I can't even remember my dreams, only faintly and honestly it scares me.

"I want to taste their fear."

No.

"I want to hear bloodcurdling screams."

Stop it.

"I want to feel blood through my fingers."

"Shut up!"

"Aki!"

I didn't mean to but, I said it out loud. I had to calm down, I'm seriously going crazy over here.

"I'm sorry," I said laying my eyes on my shoes.

"Mom can we leave," I pleaded.

She sighed and said "Ok, maybe some other time," then with a half-smile she thanked the doctor and left, me following her.

While exiting the building I saw guy waiting outside by his D-Wheel and my instantly brighten.

"Yusei!" I yelled, giving him a hug.

"Nice to see you too," he greeted, after nodding in my mom's direction.

After realizing what I was doing I jumped off as if he was fire. He might as well be he's hot and my face is completely flustered.

"So uh w-what are you doing here?" I stuttered.

"I'm here to pick you up for the twin's birthday party, remember?"

That hit me like a ton of bricks. After all I been going through I totally forgot about Rua's and Ruka's birthday and it also dawned on me that I still have to get their birthday present.

"I sort of forgot their birthday and present," I confessed.

"Well we still got time we can head over to the mall real quick," Yusei suggested.

"Ok, can I go mom?"

"Sure go ahead."

With that me and Yusei hopped on hid D-Wheel and drove off. It really felt nice holding Yusei like this along with the feeling the wind in my hair. I remember the first time I rode on Yusei's D-Wheel. Back I was so afraid to get on even though a truck falling off a cliff, sending us plummeting to our deaths I was just stubborn but, I felt safe with Yusei and that wasn't the first time. I had to face my fears and he help me through that maybe I should-

"I'm trying to help."

"What did you say, Yusei?"

"Hm, I didn't say anything."

"There's no helping me."

Am I starting to hear voices in my head?

"Are you alright, Aki?" he asked with concern.

"Yeah I'm ok I'm probably just hearing stuff," I suggested.

He nodded and focused his eyes on the road again. What just happened just now? I wondered. I can't be hearing things, could I? Unless I'm crazy, which I'm not. I looked up to see the mall was in our view. Yusei stopped his D-Wheel in front of it, taking off his helmet.

"Well let's go buy them presents," I said a little too quickly, while getting off.

"Ok."

We both walked into the mall and it is huge. Packed with people, many stores, fountains, and a skylight. Taking in the sights we walked to the gift shop.

"What would they like?" I asked more to myself.

"Well you could get Rua a video game and I'm not sure about Ruka," Yusei said.

"All right."

So looking through Yusei picked a video game for while I searched for a gift for Ruka. Little did I know I started to drift away from Yusei, becoming separated. Maybe a stuff animal will do I thought to myself. Aki picked a nice stuffed kitty for Ruka.

"Okay Yusei I'm ready to go," I got no reply back.

"Yusei?" still nothing.

"Guess we got separated, oh well this store isn't that big so I should be able to find him in no time."

I looked all over the gift shop but, didn't find Yusei anywhere. So I figured he was outside but, didn't see him there either. How dare he leave me all alone?

"Great now I'll have to search the ENTIRE mall!" I shouted, getting looks from people.

I mentally cursed myself while blushing and head over to the ladies room. After doing my business I was midway through washing my hands when I had this sudden urge to look in the mirror. I didn't know why I had an urge to look at my reflection but, I couldn't hurt right? I looked up only to see the wrong me.

"What the…"

It's impossible I gave it up two years ago. I know for sure I'm not wearing it either but, hear I was staring in the face of the old me in my costume: Black Rose Witch. The feeling I would describe is confusion. I'm wearing my regular clothes not Black Rose's. In the mirror she took off her mask. I discovered she or it isn't being worn by anyone.

"I need to be complete," it hollowed.

It's voice sends icy chills down my spine.

"I'm fading fast and it's all you're fault," it said with obvious anger.

"What do you mean and how is it my fault?" I asked with my own anger.

"Because you gave up your psychic so you have gave up me," it sounded almost hurt.

"I never gave up my powers they just disappeared out of nowhere," I explained.

"Bullshit!" it yelled. I flinched at the tone of her voice. I still think that I'm hallucinating but, the way it's voice are sending those chills down my spine was it real?

"I want to show you something," it stated emotionlessly.

Before I knew it the entire mirror, followed by the whole ladies room glowed in a bright, white light. (A/N: Fail) Then everything was black.
