I'm really happy because there are many people like this story. Even they are not reviewing, that's okay,I'm glad they're reading it anyway.

Chapter 4:The first meeting.

Tea's house.

Yugi, Joey and Tristan were running fast until they reached to Tea's house. They were so afraid to find Tea's father is at home. They were in front of the door and stopped to catch there breathes.

"That...was...a lot of running...right guys!"Joey said between breathes, while holding his ankles.

"I agree with you, Joey."Yugi said and stood up."Now how will we open the door?"They began to think a bit until Tristan spoke.

"I got an idea, we will wait untill Tea's father come here and open it for us."Yugi and Joey dropped.

"Tristan you fool! We have to find a way to go inside this house and make a lie and tell it to Tea's father!"Joey yelled, while Tristan was backing Joey stopped yelling at him, while breathing heavily.

"Okay it won't have to think about how to get in this house."Yugi started to think again about it. Then Joey remembered something Tea said it to him, when he asked what to do if she ever lost her keys.

'If I lost my keys, then I will use the extra key. I'm always keeping it under the...'

"Ah...I got it!"Joey and Tristan looked at him."Tea said to me once she always keeps an extra- key..".But then."But where did she tell me the place where she keeps it."

"Joey, remember it. We need to find that key."Yugi said.

"Come on, Joey,think about it."Tristan said,couraging him.

"I'm thinking. I'm thinking."Then suddenly he looked under him to see the doormat written on it 'welcome' word, so he pull it up to see the key under it."There it is. Our lost key."

"Good job, Joey."Yugi said."Let's head inside now."

"Yea, it's kinda cold in here."Tristan said.

Joey opened the door lock, they were inside the house now. Joey closed the door after they were all in.

"Just as we left it." Joey said quietly.

Yugi eyes showed his sadness upon his friend." I wish Tea was here with us. She didn't even have the chance to see her father."

Joey came up from behind, putting a hand on Yugi's shoulder."Don't worry. We will find her, Yugi."Then Tristan spoke."Yea, wherever she is now."

Yugi smiled at them and nodded."You're both right." He sounds very confident now."We will. We have been through this before, and we will do it again."

"That's my friend."Joey said, and clapped on Yugi's back. After a moment he continued."Well then, if we started already, then we have to start with Tea's father. Then we'll think of how did that freak come back...again."

Tristan spoke."Speaking of the father, when will he come?"

At this moment they heard the doorbell ringing, with a voice speaking."Come on, Tea open the door for your daddy."

They have frozen at spots, don't know what to do."Tristan, that answered on your question."Joey said.

"What are we going to do now." Yugi spoke, with his shakily voice.

"Shhh. We have to be calm, and act normally."

So Yugi began to walk to the door, open it to welcome Tea's father. So the door had opened. And there were standing Tea's father. A tall man, has a dark brown hair. With a light brown eyes. He looked good for a man in his middle aged.

Yugi start to act normally."Mmmm,..Welcome back home."He has a smile hid his fear.

The father was surprised a bit. He didn't expect them anyway."Yugi?"He asked at first, but then back to normal."Yugi! hello my boy."

Joey and Tristan went to welcome him, as well. "Hello , let me take this from you."Tristan took Tea's father bags inside. And entred the living room.

Then he turned to them."So, are you her to welcome Tea, too. She told me that it has been 4 years."

"Of course."Yugi said. At least this was a true thing.' I can't handle this."

Joey saw Yugi terrefied face.' Come on. Think of a good lie.'

After a seconds of spoke."So, where is Tea?"

"Who?" Tristan said.

"Tea. My daughter."

Joey smirked, looked like he thought of something good and evil."Tea's not here."A simple answer.

Yugi and Tritan looked at him.'WHAT'S the hill he doing?'

seemed confused."What?not here. Then where?"He then continued."Did she go somewhere to buy something?"

"Um, no, not really."Yugi and Tristan waited and watch Joey's plan working.

got up from the couch."What do you mean."His face became to change.

" , don't be so worried. Tea still in NY. She couldn't come."

crossing his arms."Why?she has everything she need to come. The passport, visa, everything."

"Yea, that's correct. Actually.."He began to work his real plan."We are here to apologize instead of Tea. She told us that she won't be able to come. And tell you that she is very sorry and missed you so mush."

calmed up a little."What's keeping her there?And why she didn't tell me herself?"

"Well , she was afraid to tell you that she lost her cell phone. And she still there because...'Idiot I didn't think of this.'

Yugi decided to continue. He saw that Joey has said a lot till now."She is practicing."Joey looked at him with a thank you eyes."She has a dancing play, and they have chosen her to be on it, and she couldn't say no."

"Well you know that it something has to deal with her grades. And it would help her after generation on her carrer."

Yugi continued then."She told us that she will e-mail you as soon as she has some break."

The father was looking back and forth at them. Trying not to lose any information."Ok then. I think I'll have to check my e-mails soon."He sighted."I really wanted to see my girl."

"We want more than that. We want to save her."Joey said in a whisper, that Yugi and Tristan heard him. Tristan elbowed him, whispering back."Shut up. He will hear you."

"Well, thank you very mush, boys. You gave me alot of informtion."Tristan replied."No broblem sir."Looking at his watch, pretending that they have to be somewhere else."Oh, look at the watch. We have to go now."

"Why won't you stay for diner. I'll make my favorite plates."

Joey said aloud."Of course, why not!"

Tristan then crushed Joey's feet with his shoe. That's when joey's face became red of pain."We would love to, but we have to be somewhere else. So, goodbye."

"Goodbye."

After they left set on the couch again.' I feel something weird is happening. What could it be?'

"TRISTAN!YOU JERK. I'll kill you for my broken foot."While running after him.

"I'm sooorry. But we had to get out of there as we tell him the excuses. I didn't want him to discover our lie."

Yugi held joey from behind."Joey, your anger will solve nothing. Please come down. We willll never find Tea, if both of you are going to act like this."He left Joey When he felt him calmig down.

Joey breathed out."You're right. Sorry"

"Lets go to Yugi's house. We could think there of our next step."And so they went.

While waking Yugi looked up at the skies."Hey, guys, I was thinking, should we tell grandpa about this? He can help us you know."

"Why not. He is old enough to advise us."Joey said."I don't mind, too"Tristan also agreed.

Ancient times.

Mana was heading to the kitchen, to order a meal for Tea. She saw Shimon was coming, but she tried just to past him without a word. But then he turned around and called her"Mana!"So she turned to him.

"Yes."

"Is there is something bothering you?"He came closer, and but a hand on her shoulder.

Mana looked at him for seconds."You really don't know what is bothering me."

"Well, I do know what's bothering you. But, you have to understand our fears. We don't know that girl. Or what she wants."

"I do understand your fears of her her being an enemy. But you didn't see her. She seems to me so...good."

"I know honey. Seth and the royal court along with me just want the kingdom and the pharaoh to be safe. They don't want any harm come to them. If something happened to Atem we won't forgive ourselves."

"I know."She felt a little guilty."I'm sorry, if I made you fell like defending on someone we don't know."

"Great!now you understand."He smiled Happily. Mana smiled, too."Yes, but that doesn't mean that she's evil, right?"

"No. Of course not. The pharaoh will talk to her after she has enough rest."

Mana remembered what she was doing."Oh no, you reminded me. I have to order a meal for Tea."She ran away waving goodbye to Shimon.

Shimon returned to walk to Aem and the others. He sight."Young girls."

"Come on people!"

Mana shouted. The cook went to her."My lady, we work as fast as we could."

"You already told me. And I told you to take your time, but not too much. I want this meal to has a lot of vegetables and fruit, with fresh water."

"Alright. We will do what we could."The cook said, and bowed his head a little to Mana.

"Thank you very much. I shall wait outside then."Then she left them to continue their job. The cook breathed out when she did get off.

Tea was laying on the bed thinking,-As if there something better to do- when she realized the night stars shining from the balcony. So decided to take a look, and see whatever she could see from there.

She sat on the bed, laying her foot touch the cold floor. And when she was about to be stand, she felt a pain in her body. But she set again. She fought it and stood up. Stretching her body, Tea made her way towards the balcony opened doors. She was in now, breathing quietly. She looked at the kingdom under her, and the skies above. It was full of brightening stars.

She got inside the room after minutes and sat on the bed, when she felt that her body needs not to stand much. Untill now at least. She hadn't eaten anything. And she has to get all energy back.

Tea looked at the balcony again, when she notice something glowing from the side of her eye. It was a verry tiny butterflies. They looked like fireflies, but mostly like butterflies. Glowing lightly, and flying in her balcony.

"What is...?"Tea was amazed of how beautiful those things were. They weren't there for a moment. When she was about to go and watch it, she couldn't because there was a knock on her door. Mana came in, a smile on her face. With a tray of food between her hands."Hi."

"Hi."Mana came in to her bed. putting the tray beside Tea. Then she came in front of Tea."Need something?"

"Actually, I want to ask you something."

Mana sat on the bed."What is it?"

"Well, Mana, what are those things?"Tea pointed at the butterflies.

"There is a legend about them?"Tea was curios now."How so?"

"I'll tell you the story. Long time ago there were a butterfly named 'Danaus chrysippus' As all of her kind. One day the butterfly landed on a diamond has magic abilities. And as soon as it did touch it , the diamond vanished. The butterfly had taken it's powers. And so it's children."She finished pointing at the tiny butterflies.

Tea was staring at her."Really?"

"It's true!"Mana snapped.

"I know but..."She looked at the small creatures."How did you find out about all of this?"

"As I told you. The diamond had magic abilities. It's very normall to be alot of people after it back then. A hunter saw them and started to tell the story to his childreen. And his vallage. The story soon began to be on everybodies tongues."

"What's its abilities? Does it makes you disappear, fly, or moving things."Tea said, acting magican actions.

Mana laughed."No. Not a all."

"Then what?"

"It has the ability to heal. It could return someone to life after death, or so i heard."

"It's beautiful."

"Yeah. They're one of the most beautiful and purest creatures on earth."Mana said. Tea nodded in agree, while looking at the butterflies."

"Is there name as there mother?"Tea asked.

"No, they are different from there mother. You know/ smaller, and breatier. But all together the have their mother ability. Though they didn't use it until now?"

"Why?I bet alot of people needs their ability."

"Yes, but they don't heal anyone that easily. There is a reason and it's..."Tea was waiting her answer.

"Oh, i don't really know. Don't worry, my friends know better than me. I'm sure they have the answer."Tea nodded.

"So, you feel better?"Mana asked, and touched Tea's bandaged arm."Awww. I feel better, but not that much, Mana."

"Sorry. You know I have never met someone like you."Tea raised her eyebrowes.

"Never mind. I'll go now. Eat, it would make you feel better tomorrow or so.

Tea was alone now. She looked at the tray of food. But She felt like not wanting to get something into her stomach.

' If she really doesn't remember me, although she saw me before. Does it means that Atem might not remembre me as well.'

"I hope not?"

'But in case if he doesn't remember, I mustn't show to him that I knew him before.'

"Pharaoh, will you really go the guest now?"Mana asked Atem.

"Yes, Mana."Atem answered.

"As much as it's sooner, it's better."Seth said.

"But..."Mana was unsure if he have to go now or wait a while.

Shimon looked at her."Mana, remember what we said."

Mana sight."Okay."For a seconds she kept quiet. Then snapped at them again."Why so rush?"

"MANA!"The all shouted at her.

"Okay. I'll just shut up. Do as you like."She said in defeted, and crossed her arms.

Atem smiled."Don't worry, Mana. I won't kill her. It's just some questions."

"Atem, don't be harsh."

"Of course."

"Pharaoh, should I come with you?"Isis asked.

"No, it's not nessery. I should go now."Then he left them. Walking in the hallway, untill he reashed Tea's room. There were two guards at the door.

Tea get of the bed walking to the balcony. She stood inside breathing the fresh air. With the danauses butterflies around her. Somehow she felt just being all this brighting creatures flying everywhere. With one butterfly flying in front of her, Tea lifted her hands, as the tiny butterfly floated above her hands.

"Hi."Tea said softly."Are you the danaus."

There was a knock on the door, but Atem didn't hear any voices, so he decided to entre. When he did, there was no one. He began to walk slowly in the room, until he heard a voice coming from the balcony. He knew the girl was there ang walked towards the balcony. On his way, his eyes caught the full food tray.

'She didn't touch her meal.'

He turned to his way again, until he saw the girl back. She wore a white skirt reached above he ankles. And a white light top . It's surprised him to see the Danaues butterflies around her. At least he know that she doesn't have an evil soul. Because the butterflies always stay around someone has a pure soul.

"Hello."Atem said, waiting her to turn around.

Tea's heart skipped once, when she heard a very familiar voice to her ear. A voice she didn't hear for many years, and didn't thought she will. So she turned around slowly to face him.

"P-pharaoh..."When she was about to called him by his name, Atem talked."Welcome to my country and home miss...What's your name?"

'MY NAME' Tea yelled in her head.'I can't believe this.'

Tea was a little shocked. Well she expected this, didn't she? The one she didn't forgot all these years, now in front of her asking for her name.

Tea looked at the floor, then to Atem again."It's...it's Tea."

Atem wondered why she looked sad moment ago. But he continued talking anyway."Why didn't you eat anything. Don't worry it's not poisned."

"I know. I just don't feel much hungry."

"Well miss Tea, I would love to ask you something, if you allow me of course."

"Sure."

"I heard about your conversion with Mana, so I don't have many questions."

Tea nodded. She was looking at him, missing everything. And he turned surious.

"Why are you hear?"

"Believe me, if I knew, I would tell you."

Atem raised his eyebrows."What do you mean?"

"Well, I don't really know how did I get here. Or why."

That's when a butterfly landed on Tea's shoulder. Tea looked at it, and raised her finger, hoping the butterfly would accept it. And it did.

"Beautiful creatures, aren't it?"

"Yea, but Mana didn't tell me the whole story about them."

When Atem was about to ask another questions, A guard came in and whispered in Atem's ear. Atem nooded to him."I'll be right over."Then the guard left after he bowed to Atem.

"I apologize. I have to leave. I hope we continue our conversion soon. And have a nice time here."

When he left, Tea sighted and sat on the balcony rail. She looked sad."He really doesn't remember, But why?"

' It hurts very much.'As a tear fell down on her cheek.

That's a question you will know its answer later. I hope you didn't wait much.

Thanks for everyone had reviewed. Till the next time then.
