Okay, so I tried to make this chapter a lot longer since my first one was so short. Yes it probably is another slow chapter but maybe it'll get better. Enjoy.

Darkness Within

chapter 2: A new beginning

I sat straight up causing the the boy and I to smack our heads together.

"Ow!" he yelped as he stumbled back and fell.

I merely just rubbed my forehead and stared. I was shocked before my eyes was Yugi! Yugi! I probably had THE DUMBEST look on my face.

"What was that for?" He asked as he stood up.

I pushed off the covers. "I'm so sorry!" I helped him up.

"Are you hurt?" he asked.

"What?! Seriously your asking me?! I should be asking you, after all it was my fault... Now can you tell me where I am and how you know my name?!"

He looked at me confused.

"What do you mean? Don't you remember?"

I looked around the room. There was games scattered about the room, the walls were blue, in the corner there was a desk,a window above it, a backpack beside it but what really caught my attention was a gold box with the Eye of Horus on it. The box the millennium puzzle is in...

I walked over looking out of the window. Nothing was familiar it was dark but I could still see I large city a little ways off, its lights shining. The moon was shining over head. Mostly trees around us or what I figured to be the game shop. It was actually quite a beautiful sight but it scared me to. This wasn't home... I was no where near home... maybe this is all just a dream? Or a hallucination? Maybe I was dead and this was my own personal heaven?... or hell.?

"Um, sorry but don't you remember?"

Startled, I turned around, I had forgotten "Yugi" was standing there. I shook my head no.

"Well it was just a couple of days ago and I was walking to school and I saw you stumbling by, you looked hurt so went to ask if you were okay and you just collapsed so I brought you here. I figured it would be okay since my grandpa is off on a trip and is going to be gone for a couple of weeks, not that it mattered I

m sure he would have been okay with you staying here but anyway a few hours later you had woken up and you said your name was Amaya and said you had no place to go. So I asked if you would like to stay here you nodded your head and fainted again so I brought you up here and well you know the rest."

I didn't really know how to respond. Wait he picked me up and brought here. I blushed, so I turned away and turned to the millennium puzzles box and opened it, It was empty!

"Did you solve the puzzle?!" I asked him.

" You don't remember that either, huh?"

Great, not only could I not remember being brought here, I cant even remember one of the most epic moments in yugioh!

"No but its not really important." I lied. This was already too much and man, was I tired. He walked over to the desk I was by, opened the drawer and pulled out the the puzzle. It was so pretty! It was a bright and shining gold and hung on just a brown string.

"See?" He said handing it to me. As soon as I touched It, I immediately handed it back. Something about it... it was just a feeling of power, dread and darkness.

"What's wrong?" he asked some what startled.

"Nothing!" I said maybe a but to quick and maybe my voice being a bit too loud. "Nothing, its fine." I said in a softer voice. "Did your wish come true?"

"yup!" he said cheerfully putting the puzzle back In the drawer.

"Well good." I yawned. I was really tired especially after all this. Thought part of me didn't want to go back to sleep, what if I find this has all been just a dream? This cant be a dream it feels too real. I even have a headache. Ok thats it! If this is all a dream then fine, but if its not then, I don't know! Either way I'm going to bed!

" You seem tired so I'll go, get some sleep. Big day tomorrow!" he called as he headed out the door.

"Wait!" I shouted after him. "Where will I sleep? Here?"

"Yup."

"But what about you? where will you sleep? I mean this is your room right?" I asked shyly.

"I'll be sleeping on the couch until we have the guest room set up. See you in the morning."

"Okay, thanks," I replied. He smiled at me and walked out, shutting the door behind him.

"well I might as well get some sleep." I said to myself yawning again. I crawled into bed, it was still warm from earlier. I pulled the blankets over me hoping to drift into sleep but to no avail. Questions kept running through my head. How am I here? Why? How come I supposedly cant remember the last few days? Is this really real? WHAT IS GOING ON!? AND WHAT AM I GOING TO DO!?

After what felt like forever I felt my mind becoming numb, everything became dark and I fell into a deep sleep.

There was this split into two one was dark and one was light. The dark side was black and had smoke rising from small flames that covered debris and ruins, I think I may have even seen pyramids in the way back but it was hard to tell. The side of light, the floor was like clouds, it was bright and peaceful there. On both sides stood two figures one was completely made out of darkness and one completely of light. They had no faces no features the were just the silhouette of a person. Suddenly the both surged forward and I had to jump back not to be hit. They collided, it looked as if they were fighting and the light was struggling. Eventually the darkness swallowed the light, yet that side still remained in the room. That dark figured turned towards me and there was nothing but darkness.
