~John~

They were the same height. Her blond hair was longer but other than being genderly different, there wasn't another difference. It was like looking into a mirror. John trembled slightly as she tried to look away. His golden brown eyes held her captivated. Sol had always said she had wide eyes that were impossible to look away from. It bothered her, that she was getting a taste of her own medicine from a look-a-like.

Wrenching her eyes away from the boy's shocked face, and agape mouth, John came face-to-face with the other voice. He was a tall blue-eyed boy. Her heart fluttered in her chest. Sol hadn't abandoned her. Relief washed over her as she smiled. Putting the puppy down, John ran forward to wrap her arms around the boy. Burying her face in his broad chest she breathed in. He smelt different. But that didn't matter it was Sol.

"Let go of me!" The blue eyed boy hissed angrily, as he pushed her way roughly.

"Sol!" John cried out as she latched back onto his chest. "Solomon! I didn't mean anything. Zane….means nothing."

"That's not my name." The boy said angrily.

"Sol! You can't leave!" John cried out as she tugged on his white trench coat.

Furious at her out burst and inability to listen, the blue eyed boy slapped the girl. Shocked, John let go of his shirt and chest and backed up holding her left cheek. She had never been hit by Sol before. It wasn't that she hadn't been hit before. She'd gotten into plenty of fist-fights, but from her best friend? Her heart shattered as she looked up into the cold blue eyes and solemn face. Shame rose to her face as she looked down at the floor to avoid the other two gazes

"You shouldn't have done that!" The short boy cried as he glared at the blue eyed boy.

"I can't tolerate when people become crazy." He replied in a non-caring tone.

Sliding her hand down her face, John let her hand fall dejectedly down to her side. Her mirror image had stood up and was now yelling at the blue eyed boy. John swallowed as she looked around the room she had landed in. She was standing on a giant court of some sort. There were no balls, bats, gloves, racquets, or any other playing devices. Two podiums of opposite colors sat on either side with random numbers. To her right a man hovered in the air. He was wearing a strange purple outfit and holding a staff of the same color. John wondered how he was floating. Was the court anti-gravity? If so why wasn't she floating? Would she have to wear a ridiculous outfit like his to float? Turing to her right, John let out a ear piercing scream. A blue dragon hovered above her. Looking down at her.

"It's-…It's-..It's a-…"

"Dragon?" The boys who looked like Sol said dryly.

"Why is a-….They don't-…This cant be-…" John stammered as she backed up slowly, wary of the large blue dragon.

"Calm down!" The shorter version of Yaron said as he walked up to her and put a hand on her arm. "It's a hologram."

"A what? No!...It looks too real.' John said as the puppy hovered by her feet whimpering.

Letting out an annoyed sight the Sol-look-a-like turned to a tainted window above and nodded. The Dragon and the purple man fizzed then disappeared. Relaxing slightly John concluded she was in a lab or testing area. How she got here from a puddle in the park she had yet to figure out. Was the government testing a new product?

"Who's the girl?" A child like voice said from everywhere.

Whipping her head around, john looked for the speaker. This was getting stranger, by the minute. She recognized that voice also. It belonged to Malcolm, Sol's little brother. Something told her that it really wasn't, but it sounded like him.

"Who are ya?" Her look alike said.

Years of political training and her mom's shrill voice barking instructions, ran through John's head. Automatically straightening her shoulders, and pulling down her wet shirt, john gave the tree her best practiced smile. "My name is Johnathan Warren. But please feel free to call me john. May I inquire who the three of you are?"

The blue eyed boy stared at her for a moment as if she was a strange new toy. "You don't know?'

"Nope! As you can tell I thought you were someone else."

He narrowed his eyes again. Something, John was sure was a habitual action of his. "I'm Seto Kaiba, CEO of Kaiba Corp."

"Is that a new company?" John asked. She was quiet sure that through her high connections she knew the entire world wide CEO's. Maybe the boy had just taken over? But Kaiba Corp. didn't ring a bell.

"No!" He hissed angrily, as if she had just punched him in the gut.

"Are you sure, because I've never-."

"Where did you crawl out from?" He said rudely.

Angered, John took a step forward, her fake smile dropped. She had had enough of this stuck up guy. "I don't know who you are, but where I come from we're nice to strangers."

"John?' The small boy asked.

Looking down, john smiled at the small boy. He was so cute. Just like a child, she really wanted to hug him. "Oh forgive me- What's your name?'

Blushing. "Yugi Muto. And this is Joey wheeler." He said as he pointed to her look-alike

"Hello!" John said hesitantly, acknowledging Joey who looked away.

"You really don't know Kaiba?" Yugi asked.

"Never seen or heard of him, well besides looking exactly like Solomon. And I haven't climbed out from under a rock. I'll have you know that I'm-." Frowning John let her sentence trail off. Something didn't feel right. Why would she be out in the rain one moment and the next be standing on some playing filed? What about the puddle. People don't fall into puddles and end up some where completely different.

"Did either of you make the puddle appear?" John asked as she reached down to pet the wiggling puppy.

"What puddle?" Yugi asked as he cocked his head to one side. John was amazed that his hair stayed perfectly spiked. How much hair gel and spray did he use to make it stick up like that?

"Well, I was outside in Domeno Park and it had just stopped raining. So for some fun I jumped in a puddle and fell through to……well here."

"Domino Park?" Joey asked as he puppy started to chew on one of his loose shoe laces.

"No! Domeno Park." John corrected.

Seto narrowed his eyes at her correction. "What's the name of the city you live in?'

"Is that a trick question?" John snapped, she was still fuming at him for slapping her. Her cheek still stung. "I live on the edge of Domeno City."

"Address?'

"What are you my keeper?" John asked as she glared at the boy. He may look exactly like Sol, but defiantly wasn't the kind caring, smart, funny guy Solomon was.

"Just answer my-."

"571 E Woodrun Apts."John said boredly.

"No!" Joey shouted.

"Yes!" John said as she stared at Joey, who's face read utter shock. His brown eyes wide.

"No it can't be! That's my address."

A stunned silence followed as the four soaked up the information. John rubbed the back of her neck tiredly. This wasn't her day. She had been forcefully woken up early, hand an attack, Sol left her in the rain, then she found out he's leaving the continent, she fell through a puddle, a Sol-look-a-like with a horrible attitude slapped her, and now her look-a-like claimed to be living at her address. Crouching down to the floor, John stroked the small puppy. Sol's jacket lay forgotten, dirtied and wet near the puppy. Her clothes had dried of slightly, but her dripping hair kept her back wet. Shivering John pulled off her purse and set it next to her. It was a good thing her mother had drilled her to stay composed at all time around stranger, otherwise she'd probably scream and run around franticly pulling out her hair.

"Do you have a picture of Solomon and Yaron?" Yugi asked thoughtfully.

"Of course!" John said as she rummaged through her purse. She retrieved her red wallet in the shape of a butterfly. Opening it she took out her two favorite pictures. Standing up she handed then to Yugi.

The first was the most recent, a spring break picture. Sol and Yaron had taken time off college and the tree of them rented a condo at the beach. John was wearing a one-piece red swimsuit and was riding piggy-back oh Sol, who's only clothes where his ice blue swim trunks. Yaron had come from behind and threw a bucket of water on them. Her eyes were closed and her hair a mess, but John loved that photo. The picture was taken by John's older sister, Selena.

The second picture was Christmas a year ago. Yaron's Grandfather had gotten tickets to the Ruin Room, a popular art gallery for the upper class. Sol, Yaron, John and Trevor had all gone together. Yaron's grandfather got the four of them backstage of the auction house before the auction and the four of them tried on and touched everything. The four of them where wearing huge multi-colored pots on their heads and grinning like idiots.

"Wow! Yug', he does look exactly like ya." Joey said is amazement as he looked over his friend's shoulder.

"Except for the hair" John said laughing.

"I can't believe I'm saying this but you aren't from here are you?" Yugi said.

"I'm not?" John asked sarcastically, she could have guessed that herself.

'I have to agree with Muto." Kaiba said as his face became thoughtful. "Mutt! What did you say earlier?"

"I aint a dog, Kaiba, and I aint tellin" Joey said as he crossed his arms, a slight blush played on his cheeks before he ducked his head.

"What? When did he-? Wish?' John asked. She was really getting tired of being confused.

"We were trying a new game system to see how it worked in the shadow realm. Right before you came a spirit of some sort asked Joey for 'any wish de desired for his servitude' ." Yugi said as he turned to look at Joey.

"The mutt couldn't find a girl in our reality so he had to get one from another." Seto said with a sneer.

"Kaiba ya bastard. That aint what I wished for." Joey blurted out.

"Then what? A bone?'

' No I asked for-. Never mind!" Joey said as he defeatedly shoved his hands into his pockets.

"Joey we need to know." Yugi said as he gently placed his hand on his friends shoulder.

"Help." Johns said before she could stop herself. She wasn't sure why, but something told her that the voice she had hear in the Darkness was Joey's.

"Not now." Seto said as he waved her off. He took a threatening step towards Joey, who in turn took one also.

Shit I can't let him find out.

John looked up and meet Joey's eyes. A spark ran up her spine as the wheels in her head clicked into place. She had to help Joey! Her legs moved on their own and her hand rose without consent. It took her two steps and a single punch to sent Seto flying backwards. John let out a laugh at Seto's stunned face, her eyes dancing when he bounded up. His blue eyes narrowed to slits in anger. She continued to laugh as he advanced. Tears fell down her face as she had to hold her sides for support. She laughed until she was gasping for breath and sitting on the ground. It really wasn't that funny but all the tension, anger, and confusion had built up until she burst with laughter. A strange habit that freaked most everybody out.

God I'm a freak John thought

At least you aren't insulted with animal names. Joey replied in her head

It didn't shock John that she could hear another person's voice in her head. If felt normal, although she knew it was anything but so. She also knew how her look-a-like felt. Anger flushed through his veins at the insult Kaiba had throw at him. Awe at her outburst on the CEO, and confusion on her origins and word. She did know one thing for sure. He trusted her.

I wish I could stop laughing

Me too, it's kinda freaky.

"Sorry!....I really….didn't…..mean anything…..but …you are a …jerk." John said as she slumped to the floor in a dead faint.

~Joey~

Joey reached out and caught John as she passed out. Her face looked more relaxed. Joey knew he had never met her before, but he knew, he knew her. She was so familiar, like a long lost friend come for a visit. A smug smile reached his lips as he replayed the scene in his head. He just wished it was him punching the self-righteous CEO. The small puppy snuggled against the girl as Joey stood up. Kaiba had walked out of the room, muttering darkly. Yugi stood half way between the door and Joey, the picture still clutched in his hands. His violet eyes wide in either horror or surprise. Joey figured a little of both, he felt the same.

"Yug'?" Joey asked, concerned for his small friend's silence.

"Joey this is weird. She looks exactly like-."

"Like me? Ya, I know." Joey said sheepishly.

"Kaiba's right. She isn't from here." Yugi said as he looked at John cautiously, as if she might grow fangs and attack him.

"She aint from the past, cause the arena didn't scare her, but not from future cause the holograms scared her too much. Maybe moneybags was right and she did crawl from under a rock." Joey said as he ruffled his hair.

"I doubt that, but she didn't come from the shadow realm either."

"Then from where?'

"An alternate Reality." Kaiba's voice said from the door way. He had an ice pack over his left eye and Mokuba close at his heels. The kid looked at the girl with daggers. "It's the only possible answer."

"Seto? Wouldn't that mess with the fabric of the universe?" Mokuba asked.

"It most likely will, but until the mutt confesses. We have no idea why she is here and how to get her back to her own..time."

"What do we do with her?" Joey asked. He knew she was scared and hurt. But he still wouldn't tell Yugi or even Kaiba what he had asked for, because then they'd asked why, and he didn't need them prying into his personal life.

"We should throw her outside." Mokuba hissed angrily.

The small puppy growled at the kid angrily.

"We can't have an unidentified person running around the city causing chaos. We don't know what she knows and how much she knows." Kaiba said as he tried to narrow his eyes and stopped half way.

Joey was howling on the inside. Kaiba's left eye must have been so swollen that it hurt the boy to glare. Joey smiled down a John warmly. He guessed they had more in common then he realized, and since she punched Kaiba, a feat he didn't think anyone had ever accomplish, she was top of his list.

"I can't take her home. Grandpa might ask too many questions, and we don't have room." Yugi said as he bent down to tuck her pictures back in John's purse.

"She isn't staying with us.' Mokuba hissed. Kaiba said nothing, but Joey took that as an agreement.

Three pairs of eyes turned to look at him with the same thought in them. He backed up, holding his hands in the air. "I can't my old man might come home. How would I explain her to him?"

"Well, Mutt she looks like you. I'm sure you can figure something out." Kaiba said as he turned on his heel and walked out of the room once more, Mokuba at his heels.

"Do you need help carrying her home, Joey?" Yugi offered.

"Thanks Yug'. Could you take the puppy, jacket and purse. I'll carry her on my back.' Joey said as he walked over to John. His was not the weekend he had expected.
