~Sabrina~

School still went by as usual. The monster sightings have stopped for now, but I'm sure we haven't seen the last of them. On our way back home, the gang and I decide to look for Rex and Weevil to get more info on those bikers from last night. Conveniently, they were actually walking down the street on our way home.

Tristan and Joey have currently tackled them and held them down. "Get your hands off of me!" Weevil yells.

"Back off or I'm going to go ninja on you!" Rex says.

"Look, what happened to you guys yesterday?" I ask.

"What are you talking about?" Rex asks.

"Did a guy come and try to duel you guys?" Yugi says.

"Yeah, he said some crap about taking our souls or something. And that guy so owned Weevil."

Weevil hits him on the head, "It's not like you did any better! And we would have won if that guy didn't play the Seal of Uri-whatever it was called."

"Orichalcos? Did he mention anything about it? Or something about the stolen Egyptian God Cards?" Yugi says.

"Wait, their gone?!" Rex and Weevil says with lust in their eyes.

"That's not your concern. Just tell us if you find a biker gang or something." I say. We begin to walk away and I know that Yugi shouldn't have told them about the God Cards.

We walk down the streets more, until we hear a squeal from up ahead. "Yugi! Yugi! I've been looking everywhere for you!" a girl with blonde hair and glasses runs up to him and hugs him.

"Um, hi… you." Yugi says.

"Oh no, don't tell me you've forgotten about me since you're a champion duelist now." She says. "This card should ring a bell." She holds up the Ties of Friendship card.

"Rebecca?" I say.

She glares at me, "That was for Yugi to figure out genius." She mutters. I'll admit, she hasn't really changed at all. Only this time, she wears her hair down and traded that weird teddy bear for glasses. "But it doesn't matter; my boyfriend would've figured it out sooner or later."

Boyfriend? She's only like… nine! "Um, Rebecca, since when is Yugi your 'boyfriend'?" I ask.

"It's obvious, isn't it? The way he cares for me more than you! And soon, we'll get married, and then you'll be practically like my sister!"

I feel like a have a serious need to yell at her at this point, or at the very most, hit her. But none of those would do me any good. "So come on Yugi, my Grandpa wants to talk to you!" she says.

Rebecca leads us to the Domino Museum, while she clings to Yugi the entire time. We enter the museum and we're taken down to where the stone tablet is still covered in ice. Professor Halkins and Grandpa are waiting there for us. "Oh good, you're here." Professor Halkins says, "I have a theory that all these monster sightings have something to do with Yugi and possibly Sabrina too."

"What do you mean?" Yugi asks.

"As of my knowledge, you two share bonds with a Pharaoh and Queen from millennia ago. Do you know what this means?"

"That our lives are more confusing than most kids?" I say.

"Well… yes, but that's not the point. I've spent years learning about the creation of Duel Monsters. Long ago, Egyptian sorcerers would some creatures like them from stone tablets. They would mostly release these monsters to display their symbols of power. The more monsters a person collected just increased their strength and soon the Shadow Magic was out of control. But the spirits that live within you were able to lock it away."

"Yeah, we know that, but how does that explain what's happening now?" Yugi says. "Are these monsters returning?"

"Possibly. Ever heard of Atlantis?"

"A few things here and there." I say.

"Well, on one of my recent expeditions, I may have discovered the city. It existed long before Ancient Egypt. But the most puzzling thing about it was there were carvings of Duel Monsters across the walls. So what the evidence points to is that these creatures lived even longer before Ancient Egypt discovered them 5000 years ago. Here are some pictures I've taken."

He hands them to Yugi. He comes across one picture of a carving of monsters attacking a city, but some are also defending it. "Does this mean that some of the monsters are good?" I ask.

"We don't have enough evidence for that yet. But I suppose some helped mankind while others were trying to destroy it."

"Well I guess that's believable. I mean, look at all the stuff we've been through that could never really be explained." I say.

"Like how the Pharaoh lives inside me, and the Queen in you." Yugi says.

"Actually our hypothesis suggests that the supernatural events you've experienced may actually have dated its roots back to Atlantis." Rebecca corrects.

"That's some big words coming from a kid." Tristan says.

"A kid! I'm a college student!"

College? Sure I knew she was smart, but not THAT smart. "Now then," Professor Halkins says, "my point is that when Egyptian sorcerers used these monsters 5000 years ago, the Pharaoh was there to stop them from taking over. And I believe that mankind requires his help once again."

"Yeah, but where do we start?" Yugi says. "Like do we get those monsters to go away or should we go after that biker gang? Wait a sec!" he reaches into his pocket and pulls out that green stone we found last night, "Ever seen something like this?"

"What is it?" Professor Halkins says as he takes it.

"We don't know. The guy Yugi dueled last night left it behind." I say.

Professor Halkins studies it for a moment, "Would you mind if I held onto this?"

"No, go right ahead." Yugi says.

"Thank you. Rebecca and I will be returning to America tonight, so I'll be able to take this to my lab."

All of us walk outside where a taxi is waiting for Professor Halkins and Rebecca. She still clings to Yugi though. "I'm going to the airport with Arthur and Rebecca; I'll see you two at home." Grandpa says.

"Alright." I say.

"Goodbye cutie." Rebecca says kissing Yugi's cheek. She then runs inside the taxi. I notice that Yugi's entire face is a bright red, and I can't help but chuckle. The taxi drives off, leaving the five of us standing here.

"Help me…"

I turn around quickly but see no one there. "Did you guys hear that call for help?" I ask.

"I did." Yugi says.

The rest of them just shake their heads, "Maybe it's something about the Millennium Items. You guys always seem to be involved in stuff like that." Tea says.

"Eh, I'm ready to head home. We'll see ya guys tomorrow, alrigh?" Joey says.

Yugi and I nod as we watch them head home. We decide to do the same. By the time we make it home, it's pretty late. "I'm going to bed." I say.

"Alright, I'll do the same." Yugi says.

But no matter how hard I try to sleep, something is keeping me awake. Probably just my wandering mind about what's to happen next. Eventually, I do end up falling asleep. Bright flashes of dragons and some kind of dark eye keep circling my head though.

I guess my mind can't take it, so it wakes me up. I look out the window to see an array of light coming from outside. That's strange. I get out of bed and walk over to Yugi's room. I knock on the door, "Come in." he says.

I open up the door to see him staring out the window. "So you saw it too?" I ask.

"Yeah. Let's go check it out."

"Okay." I head back into my room and grab my Duel Disk. I don't bother to change into my clothes though; I'm already wearing a t-shirt and shorts. I slip on a pair of flats and head outside. Yugi is all dressed and Grandpa is standing there in his pajamas.

I look up at the sky to see some kind of crystal that's absorbing the monsters floating around town. The crystal breaks to reveal that same dark eye that I saw in my dream. "Do you know what that thing is?" I ask Yugi.

"I think I have an idea." He says.

The eye then shoots a tornado right at us and it traps us inside the vortex. Yugi's Duel Disk glows and he draws a card, "Okay, now I summon Timaeus!" he says.

A giant teal dragon appears in the sky and shoots flames at the eye. Did I miss something here? The eye goes up in flames then disappears. The dragon called Timaeus then disappears. "Where did you get that card from?" I ask.

"Dark Magician Girl." He says. His tone makes it sound like that's the most normal response he could say.

"Um… "

"I'll tell you later."

Somehow that dragon was able to stun that giant eye. Maybe that eye was that Great Beast people keep talking about. But Timaeus might come in handy for us if it's that powerful.

Re-watching that episode just annoyed me. I mean, they make it sound like the Egyptian Gods are weaklings compared to the dragon/knights. That's not why I'm not going to give Sabrina a dragon though. The problem with giving her a dragon is that, well, sure it stops the Orichalcos, but I feel I'm going to demote Joey and Kaiba if I give her one. That probably only makes a little bit of sense, right?
