So I sat at the computer and started to type! :D Here is the update you guys have been waiting for! HORRAY!

Joey: Only took ya 2 years...

Me: Shut it...|C

After Sarah had left, Yugi decided to spend the rest of his morning doing his homework. Soon, he became lost in thought, only got to the 5th problem in his math homework. Leaning back in his chair, he couldn't help but think about what happened over the past few days. First off, he met Emily, who is now attending his school. Then he met her mother, Iana, who told him and Atem that she won't live long and to keep it a secret from her daughter. Now he just learned Sara sort of ended up in the same situation. Yugi sighed, closing his his text book, realizing his attempts at algebra were going nowhere. He decided to go walk around the block for a while, since it would be a shame to stay in on such a nice day. After getting dressed, he walked downstairs to say goodbye to his grandpa, but he didn't see him anywhere. He assumed his grandpa went out, since it was a Saturday and the shop was closed today. Walking outside, Yugi saw Atem sitting on a bench with his eyes closed, possibly deep in thought as always. Yugi walked over to him.

"Atem?" The Egyptian looked up towards the teen.

"Oh Yugi. Did you finish your assignments?" Yugi looked in another direction, smiling nervously, and said,

"Um, Sort of..." Atem blinked chuckled a bit,

"I guess you're not really thinking about school work?" Yugi looked at Atem and nodded.

"Ya, I'm...Not really focused on it...I'm going out for a walk for a bit. You wanna come?" Yugi asked. Atem nodded and got up.

"I think I could use a walk. It will help clear my mind." Yugi smiled and the two started their walk. Atem decided not to talk about the delemas at hand, since they might make Yugi over-think things. Yugi was happy to finally to be talking about something other then the problems they were facing. Just the, he saw Sara, Tea, Bakura and Emily talking with eachother near a fountain in the sqaure. The two boys walked over,

"Oh hi Yugi, Atem! How are you?" Emily asked. Yugi shrugged smiling and said,

"Well, I've been better." Sara looked at him and frowned sadly.

"Your not upset because I told you about my Grandma are you?" Yugi jumped a little and flailed his hands in front of him.

"N-No no! Of course not! I've just been thinking about a lot of things! It's not because of you!" Sara blinked and smiled slightly,

"Ok." Tea looked at her.

"What's wrong with your Grandma?" Sara looked back at Tea,

"Oh...It's nothing important..." Sara then looked towards her sketch book. Yugi stared at her. Why didn't she want to tell the others about what's going on? "So I guess you two are out for the rest of the day?" Sara continued and Atem nodded.

"You could say that." Emily smiled and looked towards Bakura,

"I was just chatting more with Bakura. I had no idea he was so sweet!" Bakura blushed a bit, smiled, and scratched the back the back of his head,

"W-Well, thank you." Emily and Tea giggled as Sara started drawing in her sketch book.

"What'cha drawing?" Emily asked.

"Oh nothing really..." Sara said quietly.

"Oh come on Sarah, I wanna see your current art! It's gotten really good!" Tea said smiling. Sara fidgited and shook her head.

"N-No...It's nothing special..."

"I would like to see too Sarah." Yugi said. Sara shook her head a little,

"I just said it is nothing special." Bakura tilted his head and said,

"All your drawings are special Sarah. Can't we see?" As Bakura made a reach for the sketch book, Sara jolted it away,

"DON'T!" Everyone stood there shocked. Sara was so upset, but why? Did that picture mean so much? Sara went wide eyed, her eye brows knitting together. She looked down again.

"I'm...I'm sorry I...It's just..." Her eyes filled with tears, and the first to notice was Tea.

"Sarah? What's wrong?" Sara looked at her and handed Tea her sketch book as she sad said,

"This..." Tea took it and as everyone looked at it. It was a self portrait, sort of an anime esk, of Sara's Grandma.

"Sara this is beautiful. What's wrong with it?" Emily asked. Sara faced the other direction and said,

"Everything...It looks nothing like her..." Bakura looked at her and smiled,

"Of course it does, I think it's perfect." She looked at the group and sighed, a tear falling from her eyes.

"No it's not...It won't be ready in time before..." Sara stopped herself. Emily blinked and asked,

"Before what?" Sara started to cry,

"Before I say goodbye..." Yugi felt a sudden jolt of pain in his chest. He didn't know where it came from, but seeing Sara like this just made him feel so...So upset...Did this pain come from seeing one of his friends in so much agony? Emily looked at her for a moment.

"Goodbye?" She asked. "Is she going somewhere?" Sara broke down, burying her face in her lap. Tea hugged her from the side.

"Don't cry Sara. She isn't alright, is she?" Sara merely nodded and said,

"S-She in the hospital...I-I know she's a strong person, b-but m-my mom says be prepared for anything...I...I can't prepare for something like that..." Sara continued to cry as Tea rubbed her back for comfort.

"It's alright Sara. Don't give up! Your Grandma will be fine! I believe she is as strong as you say she is!" Emily said confidently. The brunette stared at her and managed to smile,

"Th-Thank you Emily..." Sara dried her eyes slightly, as everyone remained there until Sara fully calmed down. After a few minutes, she took a deep breath and blew her nose with a tissue Bakura handed her. After everything had settled down, Yugi looked at Sarah and said,

"I guess talking to Atem and I really didn't do much huh?" Sara looked back at the boy and shook her head.

"No. It did help. Your just seeing me go through one of my phases." Sara joked, and Yugi smiled. "I just hate seeing her like this y'know. She's done so much for us...And it just makes me upset to see her like this..." Sara said sadly. Emily placed her hand on Sara's.

"I know how you feel. Don't worry, your Grandma will be just fine." Sara smiled and nodded.

"Why didn't you want to tell us about what was going on?" Tea asked. Sara looked down sadly and said,

"I guess I didn't want to burden you guys with my problems..." Bakura shook his head and said,

"Your not burdening anyone Sarah. You can tell us anything." Atem nodded and said,

"That's right. We're your friends. We're open to anything you have to say." Sara sighed in relief,

"Thank you guys. I really needed that..." She looked down at her picture. "So...You really think she'll like it?" Bakura then smiled and said,

"Of course! It's really nice Sarah. I think it's very sweet of you that'd you do this for her." Sara looked at him and blushed a bit, clutching her sketch book tightly

"Th-Thank you..." After a little more time had past, Emily got up,

"I better head home. I'd promise my dad I'd take him to the hospital to see mom. Would you guys like to meet him?" Yugi nodded,

"If that's ok with you." Emily smiled widely and took Yugi's hand,

"Of course! Let's go!" She ran with Yugi who blushed a little. Tea looked on annoyed,

"Hmph..."

"You ok Tea?" Atem asked.

"I'm perfectly fine!" Tea said, sticking her nose in the air, crossing her arms. She then went to join the two ahead as Bakura, Sara, and Atem looked at each other, confused looks among each of their faces. After about a few minutes walking, they arrived at Emily's home.

"THIS IS YOUR HOUSE?" Everyone yelled.

Everyone stood in shock to how big it was. About a 2 story building with elaborate windows and doors, not to mention a pool in the back. There was also a garden on the front lawn. The house, well in this case mansion, also had a small fountain in the back as well. It was about on 7-8 acres of land and just seemed impossible only Emily and her dad were living in it.

"It's...so..." Yugi said wide eyed.

"Ya, it's pretty big." Bakura said astounded. Emily opened her door and looked back at the shocked group.

"What's wrong? Aren't you coming?" She asked. They all snapped out of it and walked to Emily who showed them in. The inside was about as amazing as the inside. In the main foyer there was a large stair case leading to the upstairs, along with a mini chandalier hanging from the ceiling. The room next to it looked like a living room, with three large bookcases and a grand piano in it. Also a plasma screen TV, which seemed to take up part of a wall. There was also a table in the middle of the foyer, which seemed to have a clock in it. And this was just the begining of all the amazing things in Emily's house. Emily turned to the others and saw that they were looking around dumbfounded.

"You certainly have quite the place here Emily!" Tea said smiling in awe. Emily chuckled,

"Oh no. It's nothing really." Yugi blinked,

"Nothing? I think some would beg to differ." Emily smirked and said,

"Ya. We get that a lot. Though, when you live here your whole life, you sort of get used to it." The gang nodded. It was only natural for Emily not to be effected by all the elaborate things in the mansion since she grew up with it. Atem's attention was drawn to the table to the middle of the foyer as he walked over to it and looked it over. He was quite interested in the design of it. Emily walked over to him and smiled. "You like it?" Atem looked at Emily and nodded,

"Yes. It's rather interesting..." He looked back at the table. "Is this an actual clock?" Emily nodded and said,

"Yes, but it doesn't work anymore. I remember looking at this when I was a little kid, when it still worked I was always fascinated with it, I used to place my head on it and listen to it. My dad got it for my mom as a birthday gift and-" Emily covered her mouth embarrassed, "Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to trail off like that!" Atem chuckled.

"No, it's quite alright. Your father sounds like he loves your mother very much." Emily smiled widely nodding,

"Yes he does. He prays for her every night. By the way Atem, what are your parents like?" Atem stood silent for a minute. He forgot that Emily had no idea that he was not from this time. He had no idea what to say and was at a loss. Yugi seemed to sense this and walked over.

"S-So Emily, where's your dad?" He said almost instaintly. Emily clapped her hands together,

"Oh right! I almost forgot to introduce you to him! Come on, he might be in the kitchen." Emily then walked with the others to the other room. Atem stood beside his younger counterpart,

"Thank you Yugi." Yugi smirked,

"No problem." As they entered the kitchen, they saw a man doing some paper work. He looked up at Emily and smiled,

"Hey sweety. You ready to go to the hospital to see mom?" Emily nodded and said,

"Of course! Oh, by the way, these are some of my friends I told you about." Emily stepped aside and showed her father the group. Her father's smile remained,

"Hello. Emily's told me a lot about all of you. I'm glad she's found some friends here." Atem looked at him and said,

"I don't know why she did not have friends before. She's the type of person anyone would like to have as a friend." Emily blushed a little, and was about to say something, when her father seemed to say something to himself,

"I see...So that's the boy Emily talks about..." He turned to the side, apparently thinking about something. Everyone seemed confused about this, but whatever he was thinking about, it seemed important. Well, at least for him.

"If he does anything to my precious daughter...HE'LL BE SORRY!"

At last! I give you a chapter that is long and informative. Gah I sware Bakura is such a cutie! X3

Bakura: (Blush) Um...Thank you?
