A/n Hello there! Guess what? I finally updated!!! And if you're wondering why this chapter makes no sense as to what you've read so far and why it's a tad short... Well, that would be because...
I WENT AND RE-WROTE ALL PREVIOUS CHAPTERS!!! GO READ THEM BEFORE YOU READ THIS!!!
I decided to re-write it because I am a MUCH better writer than I was. Really. I am. I don't claim to be the best writer in the world, though, because I'm definitely not!
And with that note, here is the long-awaited fourth chapter.
Disclaimer: I do not own Yugioh. I hope that you know that by now.
"SHIT! I'm late for school!" I cried out, sitting straight up in my bed, having just looked at my watch. "Wait a second…"
"Is that really the first thing you think of when you wake up?" Kitty asked as she rolled over, looking at me from her bed, annoyed.
"Oh…" I said, suddenly remembering where we were. I fell back on the mattress with a thump. "Sorry about that."
Kitty rolled her eyes and turned back around, trying to sleep again.
I stared up at the hotel room ceiling, my completely messed-up hair feeling very itchy. Yugi had insisted that he pay for our lodgings, though at first I had been adamantly against it. Then he had brought up the point that we didn't have any money, so how were we supposed to pay by ourselves?
…Well, it couldn't be too terribly difficult to hack in Kaiba's credit card account…
Suffice to say, Yugi ended up paying for it.
Anyways, so here we were in Domino City. I had decided that today would be a good day to look around. Especially since tonight would be the night that Kaiba announced the Battle City tournament, and we didn't want to miss that.
It's not like we would be dueling or anything, but it was essential that we tag along with Yugi and Co.
If you're wondering why, well, mainly because of entertainment and secondly because I wasn't sure how long I could keep Kitty captive here, knowing that she was in the same city as Wheeler. Besides, annoying characters by pointing out simple concepts that they overlook is too much fun to resist.
I got up and went to go shower and get ready.
About and hour later I went down and ate the hotel-supplied breakfast. Soon Amanda joined me and after we ate we went outside to explore.
"So, where to first?" Kitty asked me as we strolled along a sidewalk.
"Well, I would like to be at the museum when Kitten gets there, so that would be around seven or so, but until then we can go pretty much anywhere," I replied.
"You know what," Kitty said mischievously. "Let's go pay a visit the KaibaCorp. building."
"Yeah, let's get a good look at it before we end up blowing the thing to pieces…" I started to say, and then trailed off, stopping in front of a shop window.
"What is it?" Kitty came up beside me, looking at the window skeptically.
"I really, really like that purse," I said, motioning with one hand towards a black over-the shoulder purse that was hanging in the window. It had a little bronze plate with a Celtic knot cut into it on the front, and the inside was a turquoise and dark blue design. I had also noticed inside the store there were notebooks and pencils, and I saw a pair that would go so perfectly with the purse…
"Be right back," I told Kitty, and then I was gone inside the shop, leaving confusion in my wake.
Around five minutes later I came out wearing the purse, the notebook inside of it.
"Dare I ask how you managed to get the money to buy that?" Kitty asked, raising an eyebrow at me.
"The same way you got your mom's car keys," I said, smirking at her. She rolled her eyes and we continued on.
-o-
It had been a fun-filled day as we went around the city, pointing out things that we recognized from certain episodes and just enjoying the whole place. But 7:00 finally came, and so we walked into the museum, wondering what possible havoc we could cause.
"Still looks like the National History Museum and the Lincoln Memorial combined," I commented as Kitty and I approached the Domino Museum.
"It's a big museum with white columns," she said sarcastically. "Why would it look anything like them?"
"Oh shut up," I murmured. "It's not like you weren't thinking the exact same thing."
"Yes," she replied. "But I didn't voice my idiotic thoughts out loud. You did, so therefore you get the blame."
"You think?" I murmured before walking up to Kitten, who happened to be standing there right in front of us. "That's new."
She didn't get time to acknowledge my charming witticism, though, because then I tapped Kitten on the shoulder, causing him to jump about a foot in the air before turning around to see who exactly had decided to startle him.
"Who are you?" the spirit asked, looking at us questioningly.
"Aw, you don't remember us?" Kitty said, faking remorse. "I'm hurt."
"For your information," I said, trying very hard not to laugh at the look on Kitten's face. "We were the ones who helped save you Millennium asset yesterday in the fire."
"Oh yeah!" said Tea. "I remember! You were trapped in there with the fire, too, weren't you?"
"Yeah," I said, noticing the glimmer of recognition in Kitten's eyes. He must have accessed Yugi's memories.
"How do you know about the Millennium Items?" the Pharaoh asked, his voice suddenly suspicious.
"It's a…um…" I said, scrambling for words. Something inside of me said not to say anything about the Yugioh TV show.
Some people don't like having time paradoxes on their hands.
"As we've said before, we're from a different dimension," Kitty said, rolling her eyes. "So obviously we can't tell you anything without the fate of the world being in even more danger than it already is."
"What she said," I said lamely. "So anyways, aren't we here to go look at the Ancient Egyptian exhibit or something?"
"You're right," Kitten said, though the suspicion hadn't completely gone from his face he still turned around to look back up at the museum. "No matter what lies behind those doors, I'm ready to face it."
"First one to the top wins!" Amanda yelled suddenly as she started racing up the stairs.
"Wins what?!" I shouted after her as I started my own ascent.
"…Uh…" she said, stopping at the top. I ran up next to her about two seconds afterwards, but she had still won. Which made sense, seeing as she had been on the track team back on Earth.
"We'll figure that out eventually, right?" I asked, smirking.
"Of course," Kitty said, and then we turned to walk into the museum, Kitten and Tea right behind us.
This was going to be fun.
A/n Hope you liked it! And I'm sorry that the story was so horrible before, I hope it's better now... I shall be updating MUCH quicker, I hope.
Bunni: So now you've made two promises you can't keep.
Mystic: Shut up. I really will try to update sooner and keep the chapters longer! I will!
Bunni: Good luck with that. It took you around five minutes just to type out the one line that Tea says.
Mystic: That's because friendshipness BURNS. So anyways, I think I'll set the next chapter as being posted at least by... September 17. Relish and review, please! Bye!!
