When Seto got home, late that night, Mokuba thought that it just couldn't be true. There was no way that Seto had spent an entire day doing God knows what with that girl from the painting. When Yuna had shown it to them and explained the story behind it, his Nii-sama had been so sad and ... lost over the concept of ever loving anyone other than Yuna.

Didn't he spend all that time with the Yugi-tachi because of her, even though he can't stand the sight of them?

Didn't he help Zigfried out, opposite to destroying him completely, because he knew Yuna would approve of such actions?

And didn't he beat his own darkness so he could show her just how much she means to him?

'So why,' Mokuba thought as he pretended to be asleep in his room that was across from Seto's and on the right side of Noah's, 'Is he now spending the whole day with this girl, when Yuna is in danger?'

It just didn't make any sense. To Mokuba or anyone else that knew the boy well enough. Seto Kaiba had never been one to be impressed by just looks, and yet Bakura said that it must have been a deciding factor. The girl that was with him was the same one that had supposedly caused Seth to hesitate, which ended in the Nameless Pharaoh's death 5000 years ago. The older albino had said that she was pretty and exotic, but even in Bakura's opinion (who Mokuba knew was quite smitten with Mana) Yuna is far more beautiful than that Kisara.

It made Mokuba wonder if there really was something to this reincarnation talk, especially since his brother was suddenly acting according to a story none of them knew how it ended. Yuna was probably the only one who knew everything about it, but Yugi said his sister has never talked about it, and therefore he doubted she knew much more about it than the Ishtars, the Sennens and the Bakuras. Dartz had been of some use to say that the Pharaoh and High Priest always seemed, to him, like they had a relationship far deeper than what meets the eye. Unfortunately, no one knew what that relationship was.

Noah was bothered by similar problems as Mokuba, but he wasn't pretending to be asleep when Seto walked in.

''What are you still doing up? We all have school in the morning.'' Seto chided as he walked over to the green-haired boy as he sat up.

''Where were you today?'' The CEO frowned at the accusatory tone and look in Noah's eyes when he sat down beside his adopted brother.

''I believe that I have some semblance of privacy regarding where I go.''

Noah snorted. ''Not when you go around punching your friends like you did.''

''I was-''

''And not to mention the fact that you broke your promise.'' Noah continued, as if his respected Seto-nii had never spoken. Sure, the aquamarine-haired boy respected and dearly cared for his new brothers that had taken him in, but there was no way in hell he wasn't going to stand up to them for his precious Nee-chii.

''Don't take that tone of voice with me!'' Seto glared with clenched fists. Who was this punk to tell him anything about broken promises or how he should and shouldn't act. Noah had been almost blood-thirsty when they met him due to all those years in a computer, while Seto had grown up and had more experience. Besides, what promise was the kid even talking about?

''If you don't know what promise, then you really are not the man I thought you to be.''

Startled by the fact that he wasn't aware of saying his last thought aloud, Seto was more angered by the response and wanted to slap Noah for such words. The realization that he had even thought of harming one of his brothers scared the hell out of Seto and he just stood up and walked out of the room.

Noah sighed as his brother left and tried to fall asleep, but found it difficult since they had no idea if Yuna was awake yet.

00000

Yugi had tried, he really had, to stay up all night while watching his sister, but around 4 a.m., both he and Mana had finally fallen asleep. He didn't know how Seto had managed that night, seeing as he fell asleep only in the morning, but he envied him for that ability, if only slightly. The next thing he knew, he felt someone shaking him as his name was being called in a gentle voice he knew too well.

''Yugi! Wake up, it's time for school!''

Finally opening his eyes, amethyst was met with amused crimson and Yugi jumped on his sister with a happy exclamation of her name that had the whole manor on its feet as he hugged her. Tears were falling down everyone's faces as they witnessed that the Duel Queen was more than awake and healthy and Mahad finally collapsed after the teens left for school.

Today, Mana was joining Yuna and Yugi's class and going to a public school for the very first time so even thought she was exhausted as hell, Mana was still excitedly bouncing her way to the building. She stopped, however, when she noticed Yuna stop by the gates with a blue bento box.

''Princess?'' It was a habit that she would never grow out of, not that she wanted to. And besides, Yuna didn't mind and no one cared to ask why the girl called that the Archaeological Wonder.

''Yes, Mana?''

''Why are you just standing there?''

Yuna chuckled. ''I'm waiting for Seto to give him this bento. It's been years since I've done this and I'm sure he'll appreciate it.''

Mana and Yugi wince at this. No one had had the heart to tell the girl that her secret love might love someone else, even if Mokuba and Noah had protested that Seto didn't like anyone other than Yuna.

Before they could say anything, said CEO's limo arrived and out stepped a girl with long, flowing white hair and beautiful blue eyes in Domino High's regular uniform. The owner of the limo stepped out right after her and she quickly attached herself onto his arm as he briskly walked into the school all the while talking about what she had prepared him for lunch since she knew that she would probably see him, completely oblivious of his rival standing only a few feet away. The students were fast to start gossiping about the CEO's ''girlfriend'' and Mana and Yugi were afraid to look at Yuna's face.

The warning bell was heard and all lingering teens rushed into the building. Yuna had her head down, her long, goldenrod bangs hiding her eyes from view.

''Yuna?'' Mana and Yugi asked in the same voice only after they were sure no one but them was around. When Yuna looked up, both gasped as a tear slowly rolled down an alabaster cheek and fell on the forgotten bento box.

''I'll ... I'll come in later. You guys go ahead.'' Yuna said in a weak voice as she slowly lowered the bento box to stand at the bottom of the gate and slowly started walking off in the direction of the lone sakura tree in the backyard of the school. Yugi and Mana could only watch in despair as the strongest person they knew slowly broke down as soon as she was out of view.

Yuna had known that that dream she had hadn't been her ordinary vision. As she curled up under the pink petal tree, she thought about how it had all seemed like an omen of sorts or like a warning. As she slowly let out quiet sobs, Yuna let the tears her ancient incarnate had never been allowed to let lose, crying for the both of them. IN the dream it had been unbearable, but now in reality ... It was far worse and she didn't know if she could deal with it.
