1 Week later- Heathrow Airport, England.

It had been a month and a half since the encounter with shadi, it didn't take long at all for the three hikaris to become close friends as they had the millennium items, yamis and a love of games in common, Malik and Ryou were particularly happy about this, although malik did not show it, for they had little to no friends before because of either having destructive yamis, or they were busy leading a criminal organization, they were grateful Yugi had forgave them, even if Yugi's other friends were not as keen and seemed to try their best to ignore them.

The three yamis however could not seem to get over their grudges with each other, Yami's hate for Bakura went way back to their previous lives, neither of them knew much of their past lives, but they knew that something happened between them which set their rivalry, Yami also did not like Ishtar, they both seemed to be complete opposites, Ishtar enjoyed terrorizing and torturing people, whereas Yami certainly did not, Bakura and Ishtar also disliked one another, Bakura hated that Ishtar had beaten him during battle city and had sent him and his hikari to the shadow realm, the only time they did get on was the various pranks they paired up to play on another, mostly it was Bakura and Ishtar pranking the pharaoh, but the tomb robber and king of games even put their rivalry aside to get revenge on Ishtar once or twice, when the psychotic yami dared prank them both at the same time. The hikari/yami relationships were progressing the furthest as they had to live in the same bodies, it was now a more brotherly bond then before with the hikari and yami pairs.

A week after Shadi's appearance, Yugi, Malik and Ryou decided it was safe enough to ask Bakura about the menacing shadow creature, they did not ask straight away knowing the yamis temper, Bakura hated seeming weak, and having shadi perform a painful exorcism on him dented his pride a bit. They asked, but Bakura did not seem to remember much at all, he knew nothing about meeting something like it in his past life, and did not remember what shadi had done entirely, so it was a dead end lead.

Now a month later or so later and the hikaris decided to go on holiday to bond more:

The airport seemed ordinary, with passengers going to and from different terminals, all was busy but there was still an organized peace, until a white haired teenager shoved his way through the passengers glaring and growling slightly, obviously pissed off about something.

"Thank Ra we're off that demon contraption!" yelled Bakura, who had control of the body.

"Bakura, it's called a plane, and it wasn't that bad." Said Ryou, in spirit form floating along trying to catch up with his stalking yami, "Che, if you call, constantly crying babies, a fat walrus man snoring, no room to relax, and a stupid women who can't leave you alone even after you told her for the 100th time, 'no, i would not like any BLOODY refreshments'!', 'not bad', then you are more a fool then i thought." Exclaimed Bakura, who could rant for queen and country when seriously pissed off.

Suddenly a certain tri-coloured haired pharaoh came stalking over grumbling about 'stupid thieves' when he saw said thief he glared, "Tomb Robber! There was no need to send that women to the shadow realm, she was just offering you a drink! It took me long enough getting her soul back." he exclaimed.

"Yes, well i didn't want any drink, but did she leave me alone, no, she kept on asking like the annoying mortal she is, and i bet you would have done the same if I hadn't got there first" Bakura huffed and crossed his arms shooting a death glare at Yami.

"No, I wouldn't because I, unlike you, actually have some self control." Yami shot back holding his head high in pride.

"Your arrogance disgusts me" Bakura grumbled, but Yami didn't seem to hear.

"Okay, enough you guys' no fighting whilst we're on holiday!" cried Yugi, who came out in spirit form to help Ryou cease the yamis arguing.

"Aww man the show was just getting started!" grinned Ishtar, the third yami who was walking up to them, his eyes half lidded in amusement, he was busy polishing the millennium rod with his bags slung over his shoulder. Malik soon joined the other hikaris in spirit form eyeing Yami and Bakura in amusement.

"Okay... now we're all here can we go." Ryou said whilst repressing a sigh, this was going to be a long holiday.

!

"Okay, what are we doing in England again?" Malik asked as they were sat on a train, they had sat there for an hour and a half already and everyone had gotten bored pretty fast.

"Malik, we told you before we came, weren't you listening, we're going to some camp site in Cornwall." Replied Ryou with a deep sigh afterwards. /He is such an air head./

/what, do you expect any different from them two fools./ Bakura said, polishing a set of throwing knives in his soul room. It was becoming a lot more common for Ryou and Bakura to have conversations like this, Bakura had changed quite a bit since Shadi's appearance, Ryou had an idea it was because that shadow creature was gone from his yami's soul, but he did not voice this aloud, he was still weary of his yami, whos personality was more or less the same, just more patient and less sadistic.

"Yes, but why England? Why not just camp back home" Malik argued ;hey Ishtar, do you know what a Cornwall is?; ... ;noooope.; Malik sighed slightly amused as his yami had said it in a sing-song voice. Ishtar was not as blood thirsty and chaotic anymore, but then again, he still found joy in someone else's misery, all in all he was still pretty insane. Ishtar heared the thoughts on his insanity and grinned evilly ;Being sane is boring Malik, insanity is key to a great life!; he sniggered. Malik did kind of agree with him to an extent, normal was boring, and his yami certainly was interesting to say the least.

"Malik, England is Ryou's home country, plus you and I have never been, I think it will be fun!" Yugi beamed as he watched the English countryside roll on by outside the train. Yugi and Yami were still the same as ever, their bond and trust was the strongest out of the others, Yami was still arrogant and proud, and although kinder then his fellow yamis he, however, still is the darker half of the soul, which meant he still had rebellious moments.

Hours later, after an almost non-eventful train ride they all got off at Newquay.

"Ishtar, why did you take over my body just to go and rip that teddy bear's head off?" Malik cried in spirit form looking thoroughly pissed off.

"That brat deserved to have her teddy decapitated. She was jumping around all happy like a rabbit, i hate rabbits!" Ishtar yelled back insanely as usual, he was very frustrated with the almost 2 day's worth of travelling; it was not interesting at all, and really wanting to terrorize something, anything. He was now glaring at everything, even inanimate objects, causing other travellers in the station to briskly walk away from the madman to save themselves from his wrath. Bakura found this amusing and took the beautiful opportunity to steal the millennium rod.

This all resulted in a cackling Bakura being chased by a murderous Ishtar, "So childish." Yami commented, but with a slight smirk as Ishtar made a dive for the thief king but missed and ended up landing face first on the pavement, the resulting maniacal laughter and Egyptian curses could have been heard miles away.

Finally Ryou and Malik had enough of their yamis antics and took over, shoving them into their soul rooms, Ryou did this timidly, but Bakura seemed to comply as he was still too busy laughing about what had happened.

!

After a while on a bus ride to the campsite Yugi couldn't help but sense something, or... I swear someone's following us. Yugi thought as he, Ryou and Malik all sat in the back of the bus he turned to look out the back window and saw what looked like someone flying on a broomstick toward them overhead in the sky. I must be going insane. Yugi blinked and decided to ignore what he saw and just enjoy the holiday, well as much as he could anyway, what with Bakura constantly trying to light Yami's hair on fire, and Ishtar terrorizing innocent people.

Finally they arrived at the campsite, and soon enough they were setting up their 3-man tent. The place was pretty beautiful, seemingly in the middle of nowhere with a beach just outside their tent down a small cliff.

Yugi suddenly felt someone was watching them again, he scanned the area and his eyes fell on a lone man with a black cloak and skull mask hiding between another person's tent and caravan. "Guys, someone's watching us, and i think they've been following us since we got off the train." Yugi said starting to get worried. Everyone snapped to attention the yamis quickly taking over from their hikaris. #You're right yugi, is this the evil Shadi told us about?# Yami wondered as he also spotted the figure. "Shall we approach that grim reaper?" Ishtar chuckled, Malik nodded in agreement whilst in spirit form and Ishtar started forward until Yami stopped him.

"No. We don't know how dangerous this person is, and if there are others. I think we should just wait, but keep alert." Yami advised Ishtar looked as if he was going to protest but by then it was too late for suddenly there was a popping noise and all of them witnessed, or rather did not witness, the figure leave, seemingly in thin air. Ryou and Yugi gasped their jaws dropping, Maliks jaw dropped, and Bakura and Yami's eyes widened slightly, Ishtar however was a bit more insanely dramatic, his usually half lidded bored looking eyes, popped open and his pupils grew slightly making him look, if possible more insane, " OH DEAR RA! DID YOU SEE THAT!" he yelled waving his arms in a way of demonstrating; everyone stared at him and edged away.

"Yes Ishtar, we all saw it. No need to be so dramatic!" Malik cried whilst facepalming.

#Yami, somehow i don't think that will be the last time we see that cloaked figure# Yugi said worriedly through his mind link.

#No aibou, I'm sure we will be seeing him again.# Yami replied wondering just who it was who was watching them.
