~~~Chapter Ten~~~
~~~Previous~~~
Yami doesn't reply and takes out a yo-yo, which he spins extremely fast. "Now…it's game time. The rule is simple. The last two standing on this roof is the winner."
"Sounds good. Corner them!" the gang member with the green hat orders.
Yami briefly looks at me before looking back at the gang members. "My Queen."
"I know, my Pharaoh." I agree, knowing what he was requesting. I use my magic to create a yo-yo that is placed in my hand.
The gang members surround us as we dodge out of the way while creating holes in the roof.
"How long are you planning to run? You!" He demands, annoyed.
We stop at the roof's edge as the gang members corner us. "This is it." The boy with the green hat laughs. "Will it be our yo-yos or falling? Choose."
Yami smirks. "I wonder about that. This roof is pretty decrepit. It's easy to put holes in it with a yo-yo. I wonder how long this hole-filled roof will hold the weight of your four."
"You brat! You used the yo-yo to make holes?"
Yami lifts his yo-yo. "You do not aim yo-yos at people. They should face the ground."
The gang screams as the roof crumbles under them, and they land with a loud thud on the ground below. We get off the roof and return to the warehouse entrance, with Yami giving Yuugi control back when we do.
I see Honda catch the pink ribbon as it floats to the ground. "Jounouchi!"
"You saved me, Honda."
Yuugi and I walk over to stand next to Honda. "Didn't I say so? Jounouchi-kun hasn't changed."
"Yeah, he is still the same person." I agree softly.
Honda turns and looks at us. "Yuugi. Isis."
~~~Next Day~~~
"Ehh? You developed a new yo-yo tech?" Anzu questions.
"It's a great one that I haven't shown anyone yet."
"I'm so excited," Miho exclaims.
"I look forward to seeing it." Yuugi agrees with Miho happily.
"I have a bad feeling," Anzu states dryly.
"With Jounouchi being the way he is, so do I." I agree with a sigh.
"Look! Special loop! In the sky!"
This causes Anzu's and Miho's skirts to rise, and the yo-yo gets tied around him. Luckily, it didn't lift my clothing. Yuugi and Honda exclaim in surprise as they blush. Jounouchi also blushes when he realises what he is seeing. "Jounouchi! You scum!" Anzu shouts angrily with a chair above her head as she goes after him.
"I didn't do it on purpose!" He denies it urgently.
I let out a soft chuckle as Anzu chases after him, and he tries to get away.
~~~Present~~~
~~~3rd POV~~~
A beautiful woman wearing a green suit walks towards the school, her heels clicking against the ground with each step.
A male student walks over. "Good morning, Chouno-sensei!"
She smiles. "Good morning."
A male wearing a beige suit appears behind her. "Chouno-sensei! Good morning!"
She looks behind her. "Oh. Ishida-sensei. Good morning."
Two male students see her and bow. "Good morning, Sensei."
Anzu and Miho are walking to school together. Miho looks at Chouno-sensei with wide eyes. "Chouno-sensei is beautiful again today."
Anzu looks away from Chouno-sensei and looks at Miho. "Whether the Sensei is pretty or not has nothing to do with us."
"Hey, you," Chouno-sensei calls out. Anzu and Miho turn to look. Chouno-sensei is pointing at a female student's bag. "What is that?"
The female looks at the mascot hanging on her bag. "It's a mascot."
"That's against the rules." Chouno-sensei grabs the mascot and pulls it from the female's bag. "Hand it over." She holds the mascot up with a smile on her face. "Be careful next time." She walks into school.
Anzu shrugs her shoulders. "Plus, she's strict with rules."
"But that's what Sensei have to do, right?" Miho queries.
Anzu looks at Miho with a clenched fist. "Chouno-sensei is trying to make them even more strict. There's a rumour that she has been making a lot of proposals."
Miho places a hand in front of her mouth and looks at Anzu in disbelief. "You're kidding!"
"I wish," Anzu replies with a sigh.
"Umm…Anzu-chan. Miho-chan." A soft female voice calls out.
Anzu and Miho look behind them, surprised.
"Good morning, Mayumi." Anzu greets.
"What's wrong?" Miho questions.
Mayumi looks up. "I need some advice."
~~~Isis's POV~~~
I get dressed and head downstairs. I look at the time and see that we must leave soon to meet the others. "Yuugi! Are you ready?" I call out.
There is banging from upstairs. "C-Coming Isis-nee!" Yuugi calls back.
It isn't long before he rushes down the stairs, panting heavily. I raise an eyebrow. "You stayed up late playing games again, didn't you?"
Yuugi looks up at me sheepishly. "I couldn't help it. The game was interesting."
I let out a soft chuckle. "Never mind. Let's leave."
Yuugi nods his head happily.
"Bye Jii-chan!/ Grandfather!" Yuugi and I call out at the same time before leaving the house.
~~~3rd POV~~~
~~~Inside the Staff Room~~~
Chouno-sensei throws the mascot into a bin when she enters the staff room. Chouno-sensei sees an older man at a desk, and she walks over with a smile. "Vice-Principal. What is the news on the proposal I mentioned the other day?"
He looks at her with wide eyes. "Wh-what was it?"
"The complete ban of all personal items. And the increase in penalties for those who break the rules." Chouno-sensei states.
"Oh-oh, that. There's still a lot of…" Vice-Principal trails off.
Chouno-sensei leans over the desk and holds his tie. "Oh? Your necktie is twisted."
He looks up. "Oh. Thanks."
"We definitely need to increase penalties. We must be more strict with the students, right?" Chouno-sensei queries.
"R-right." Vice-Principal agrees. "Let's bring it up at the upcoming meeting."
Chouno-sensei lets go of his tie and leans back slightly. "Please do that!"
Vice-Principal looks away and lets out a cough before looking back at Chouno-sensei with a smile on his face. "By the way, Chouno-sensei. This Sunday, you're going to an arranged marriage interview?"
Chouno-sensei stands up straight, and a smile appears on her face. "It's because my mother makes a big deal about it." She turns away and walks off in the other direction.
Vice-Principal watches her walk away before he places his hands near his cheeks, and a grin appears. "I wish you'd have a marriage interview with me!"
~~~With Anzu, Miho, and Mayumi~~~
"Jounouchi?!" Anzu exclaims, surprised.
Miho places a hand over Anzu's mouth. "No, Anzu!"
Mayumi places a finger against her lips and lets out a shh. "Anzu-chan, your voice is too loud."
Anzu removes Miho's hand from her mouth. "I get it. I get it! But…" She trails off, and the three look into the classroom to see Jounouchi and Honda arguing again.
~~~Isis's POV~~~
When Yuugi and I get to school, Jounouchi and Honda are arguing again. Honda is annoyed and points at Jounouchi. "Hey, you! You skipped out on your cleaning duty yesterday again! As a Beautification Member, I cannot forgive that!"
Jounouchi places his hands together in front of him. "Please forgive that. Please, Honda." He begs. "I had something to do."
Honda grabs hold of Jounouchi's collar. "Unforgivable!"
"Don't be so serious!"
Yuugi waves his hands in front of him, panicking. "Stop it, Honda-kun. Jounouchi-kun is sorry."
Honda looks at Yuugi while pointing at Jounouchi. "Yuugi, be quiet! How is he sorry?"
"Yuugi, Isis," Anzu calls from behind us. "Come here a bit, Yuugi, Isis."
"What is it, Anzu?" Yuugi queries, confused.
"Just come here. Hurry." Anzu orders.
Yuugi and I share a look before walking over to her. "What? Us too?" Jounouchi questions.
"You guys aren't needed! Just Yuugi and Isis!" Anzu states with a glare on her face.
We leave the classroom and stand next to the window. "Huh? Something Jounouchi-kun likes?"
"Yeah. You'd know, right?" Anzu questions.
Yuugi places his hand on the side of his head. "Ahh! He probably would like lewd videos, right, Isis-nee?"
"Yeah, that's all he seems to watch." I agree, chuckling.
Anzu, Miho, and Mayumi fall slightly. Anzu is the first to catch herself in time and stands straight up. "Not something like that! Something a girl can give as a present!"
Yuugi doesn't look happy when he hears that. "And Anzu is giving it?"
Anzu places a hand on her chest. "Why me?! The one giving it is Mayumi!" Anzu points at Mayumi.
"Hey! Anzu-chan!" Mayumi panics.
A smile appears on Yuugi's face as Anzu looks at Mayumi. "It's okay. Yuugi and Isis wouldn't tell anyone. Right, Yuugi? Isis?"
"If it's a secret, then I'll keep it a secret," Yuugi promises happily.
"Same here." I agree softly.
"So, the present?" Anzu queries.
Yuugi places his finger on his left cheek. "Jounouchi-kun likes games. Maybe something from our shop?" Yuugi states thoughtfully.
"Grandfather has a few different types available," I add softly.
"I see. Yuugi's and Isis's Jii-chan's place." Anzu comments.
"Let's look after school," Miho suggests happily.
~~~At Game~~~
As usual, Hedwig and Padfoot rest in their usual places as soon as I leave the school gates. Walking through the shop doors, we quickly tell Grandfather what Mayumi is after. "I see. A present full of the feelings of the opposite sex? It's sure nice to be young. Ah! I've got something good for that!"
"Really, Jii-chan?" Yuugi questions happily.
"Yuugi, Isis, I've told you this is how I got your Obaa-san." Grandfather turns around and rummages around in the box on the top shelf. "If I recall, it's in this box…" Dust falls and surrounds Grandfather, causing him to cough. "Dust! "
"Is this really a good idea?" Miho questions.
"I think it'll be okay…" Anzu trails off, unsure.
"Oh, here it is!" Grandfather exclaims, gaining our attention. He is holding a yellow box. "Here it is. This is it." He blows on the box, and the dust is blown in our direction, causing us to cough. Grandfather removes the lid from the box. "Here."
"This is a jigsaw puzzle?" Anzu queries.
"But there's nothing drawn on it. It's blank." Miho points out in confusion.
"Yup." Grandfather agrees. "Send your feelings to the other person in pieces. The receiver will put the pieces together one by one. And the message will expand. It's romantic!"
"That's lovely! Really lovely! Really romantic!" Mayumi exclaims happily, her fingers entwined together.
"Yup! Yup!" Grandfather agrees happily.
"I'm buying this!" Mayumi states, pointing at the box.
"Here. Come again!" Grandfather places the lid back on the box and picks it up.
"But what kind of message should I write?" Mayumi queries.
"Tomorrow's Sunday. Take your time to think about it." Grandfather suggests, laughing cheerfully.
"Only you can come up with what to put," I say softly.
~~~3rd POV~~~
Chouno-sensei wears a pink kimono and has her hair up in a bun before meeting a young man wearing a blue suit. He places a hand on the back of his head. "I can't believe I'm having a marriage interview with such a beautiful person. I'm honoured."
Chouno-sensei turns to the side and places a hand near her mouth. "Oh, no way." Of course! Now, praise my beauty more!
She turns back to him when he speaks. "You are a high school teacher, right? I bet you're famous for being a beautiful teacher at school!"
She turns away, her hand near her mouth. "No such thing." Of course! Come up with some better compliments!
A young boy jumps on the stone steps. "Chi-yo-ko-re-i." He gasps as he falls forward, grabbing Chouno-sensei's kimono with his hand.
"Hey!" Chouno-sensei shouts. She pushes him away with her leg, and he lands on his bottom. "Be careful! You'll get my kimono dirty! Damn! Brats these days!"
Tears fill the boy's eyes, and he begins crying loudly. He gets up and runs off in the other direction.
A smile appears on Chouno-sensei's face. "It really is a problem when children are not brought up well."
"Seems you're very different from how I imagined." The man comments. She turns and looks at him, surprised. "This is…too bad."
~~~Isis's POV~~~
~~~Next Day~~~
~~~At School~~~
"Did you write it? Did you write it?" Miho questions happily as soon as Mayumi enters the classroom doors.
"Yeah." She opens her school bag and takes out the box.
"Kawaii!" Miho praises.
"I did my best all night." Mayumi comments.
"So, what do we do?" Anzu questions.
"Probably secretly leaving it in the desk is best," Miho suggests.
"But if that guy finds it, wouldn't he just start working on it in front of everyone?" Anzu queries.
"Um, when that happens, I'll bring him to the roof," Yuugi states, pointing at himself.
"I'll help." I offer.
"Okay, let's do that." Anzu agrees.
"Yeah." Mayumi agrees, putting the box inside Jounouchi's desk.
~~~3rd POV~~~
Chouno-sensei walks into the staffroom. "Good morning!"
Vice-Principal looks at her. "Chouno-sensei. The school rules proposal is going well."
"Well, really?" She queries.
"By the way, how was your marriage interview yesterday?" Vice-Principal questions.
Chouno-sensei opens her eyes and looks away before placing a hand over her mouth and closing her eyes. "That man would have been a waste on me." She lets out a laugh. "Excuse me." She turns and walks out of the staff room.
The vice-principal holds up a hand with wide eyes. "Chouno-sensei."
Chouno-sensei heads into a bathroom. She smashes her clenched fist on the mirror. Cracks appear, and pieces of glass fall into the sink. "Shaddup! That dullard vice principal! Inquiring into people's marriage arrangements!" She removes her fists from the mirror and looks down. "I get pissed just remembering it."
She kicks the bin, and it bangs on the wall before falling to the ground and rolling to the side, rubbish rolling out.
She clenches both fists. "That man! I was planning to refuse him! Marriage interviews are my hobby! Denouncing this world's men was supposed to be the greatest fun!" She lifts a clenched fist with a menacing glare on her face. "But…I have beauty and money, yet he damaged my pride!"
She looks in the mirror and gasps with a hand over her mouth. "Oh no. what a face. Makeup. Makeup." She applied her makeup before looking at the mirror with a smile. "So frustrated."
~~~Isis's POV~~~
We sit at our desks, but Jounouchi isn't here just yet. I hear footsteps running towards the classroom door, and when it slides open, Jounouchi is standing there. "I made it in time!" Jounouchi lets out a sigh of relief.
"Jounouchi-kun, you're late." Miho scolds.
"Take your seat already. Sensei will be here soon." Honda orders.
Jounouchi is quick to slide the classroom door closed, and he sits on his seat. He lets out a sigh. "I stayed up watching videos last night. I went to bed late."
"Oh, lewd videos?!" Honda questions.
"Don't insult me! It was Hong Kong action!"
The classroom door opens, and Chouno-sensei walks in. She has red hair curled over her shoulders, grey-blue eyes with purple eyeshadow, and red lipstick. She wears her usual green jacket, green skirt, white shirt, and red heels.
"Stand up. Salutation. Take seat."
Chouno-sensei stands behind her desk with a fake smile on her face. She picks up the textbook and opens it. "Okay, open your textbook."
I watch as Jounouchi reaches into his desk and pulls out the box holding Mayumi's puzzle. He looks at it confused, which gains Anzu's, Mayumi's, Miho's, and Yuugi's attention. "What is this?"
"Jounouchi-kun, what are you doing during class?" Chouno-sensei demands as she walks toward him. "An ayaben? What a cute bentou lunch." She picks it up, causing all of the class, apart from Anzu, Mayumi, Miho, Yuugi, and me, to laugh.
"That's not mine." Jounouchi denies.
"Not yours? But you had it, right?" Chouno-sensei queries.
Jounouchi looks away. "It was just in my desk. Someone must have put it in there by accident."
"Accident? I see." She walks back to her desk with the box still in her hand. "But…But Sensei always tells you. Don't bring things to school that aren't related to class. What could this be, Jounouchi-kun?"
"I already told you; I don't know!" Jounouchi denies.
"Really?" She grabs it and rips off the paper, causing some jigsaw pieces to fall onto her desk. "Oh! Jigsaw puzzle? That's no good; you shouldn't bring a plaything. You'd probably take it out and completely lose yourself in it. Truly averse to studying. Oh! How interesting! When you put the pieces together, words come out. 'Ever since I met you…I've always been preoccupied…' Oh no, is this a confession?" The class laughs again. "That's no good. This would be a terrible distraction. In other words, against school rules. Perhaps leading to expulsion. Who owns this? Well, to continue."
Anzu stands up behind her desk before Chouno-sensei can continue. "Stop it, Sensei."
"What, Masaki-san? " Chouno-sensei asks.
"That's a message. A letter. I think it's cruel to read other people's letters." Anzu points out.
"Cruel?" Chouno-sensei repeats. "But as a teacher, I must know who brought this to school. And by putting the puzzle together, I will know the name."
"That…is mine!" Anzu lies.
"Anzu-chan!" Mayumi exclaims, surprised.
"I see. So, it's Masaki-san's. When class is over, go to the advisor room." Chouno-sensei orders.
As soon as class is over, Miho, Mayumi, Yuugi, and I wait for Anzu to come out of the advisor room. It isn't long before she does. "How did it go?" Miho questions, worried.
"Anzu-chan. I'm sorry, it's my fault." Mayumi apologises sadly.
"Hey. What did she say? " Yuugi queries.
Anzu holds up the puzzle box. "First, this."
"She gave it back?" Mayumi exclaims, surprised.
"Work hard for the rest. I also have to work hard, too!" She makes some posters and hangs one up on the board. "This should be good."
"You're really doing this, Anzu?" Yuugi questions, worried.
"If little rules are gone, I'd be free to work." Anzu points out.
"But…" Jounouchi trails off.
"What do you guys think about the rules?" Anzu questions.
"I think it'd be better without that," Jounouchi admits with his arms crossed over his chest.
"Here." Anzu holds out the clipboard. "Then give me your signature."
"Ummm…maybe I can help?" Yuugi queries.
"Really? Then. Put this poster up on the west tower." Anzu suggests.
"Okay! Come on, Isis-nee!" Yuugi cheers happily.
"Yeah." I agree with a soft chuckle.
"Ah, Yuugi! Isis!" Anzu calls out to us. We stop and turn to look at her. "Thanks."
Yuugi blushes slightly before we head towards the west tower. Later on, we check the posters to see that people have drawn on them. 'Stop being a busybody!' 'Stupid!' 'I'm against rules revisions!'
"How mean!" Miho exclaims, annoyed.
"What a petty thing to do," Jounouchi states.
"We can just redo it," Anzu admits as she takes it down.
"Harassment?" Jounouchi questions.
"Such people exist. But I'm sure everyone doesn't like the rules." Anzu comments.
"Maybe. But will they have the courage to admit that in the first place?" I point out with a sigh.
~~~In Class~~~
The Sensei calls Anzu up to the board to answer the questions. The same question that he hasn't even told us about. I know the answer, but the rest of the class does not. "What's wrong? Can't do it yet?"
"But Sensei…we haven't learned this yet." Anzu points out.
"You'd know if you prepared for the lesson. Don't waste your time doing useless things." He scolds.
"What do you mean?" Anzu queries.
The Sensei doesn't bother answering Anzu's question. But it looks like he is purposely picking on Anzu because of Chouno-sensei. She has undoubtedly lied about what happened and placed the blame on Anzu instead.
~~~After Class~~~
Two girls walk by, laughing as we stand near the wall. Anzu is holding out the clipboard. "Please! Please give me your signature to change the rules!" She and Yuugi bow, but the two girls just pass without stopping. "Let's make part-time jobs and fashion okay at school."
"Yuugi, I'll be back in a minute," I stated softly.
"Okay, Isis-nee."
I walk towards the bathroom and head inside. I'm just about to start my period, so I place on a pad and wash my hands before heading back towards Yuugi and Anzu. I get back just to see Chouno-sensei walk away with a smirk on her face and look smug. She must have done something so that Anzu doesn't get any signatures. I wouldn't put it past her as she is quite vain in her appearance and doesn't seem to like being told otherwise.
~~~After School~~~
Hedwig and Padfoot rest on me as soon as we leave the school gates. Padfoot has gotten bigger ever so slightly, but he is still small enough for me to carry in my arms.
Anzu lets out a sigh. "If only people would be braver and sign," Anzu states, disappointed.
"Anzu, haven't you heard the rumour?" Miho queries.
Anzu stops walking and looks at Miho. "What?"
"Students that signed for the rules revision…have been targeted by the Sensei-tachi," Miho states.
"But…that's not true. Who would say that?" Anzu questions.
"I don't know…" Miho trails off.
"I have a good idea," I mutter with a sigh. I wouldn't put it past that person.
"When I gather the signatures, I'm sure the Sensei-tachi will change their minds," Anzu admits.
~~~Next Day~~~
~~~At School~~~
Yuugi, Anzu, and I wait near the school doors. "Everyone, let's change the rules together. Please!"
"Please!" Yuugi repeats, bowing.
Three boys walk over to the three of us. Anzu holds up the clipboard. "Will you give me your signature?"
The three boys talk back and forth over each other. "Who would do that?"
"The rules are fine as they are right now!"
"No one would sign that!"
"Yup. There's no point."
"It'll just cause the Sensei to target you."
"If you're not going to sigh, that's fine! But don't get in the way!" Anzu orders.
One of the boys snatches the clipboard out of Anzu's hand. "Look! She hasn't gotten anything!"
"Let me see."
"Give that back!" Anzu demands.
"No! Give that back!" Yuugi repeats and takes a step forward. One of the boys stands in front of him and pushes him back. I caught Yuugi before he could land on the ground.
"Yuugi." Anzu looks at him, worried.
The boy holding the clipboard removes the paper from the clip at the top. "This is crap." He rips the papers in half.
"Stop it, you bastards!" Jounouchi shouts as he rushes forward and stops in front of them.
"Jounouchi!"
"You're with them too?! What a rule-breaking punk."
"You're the one harassing them!" Jounouchi pushes the blonde-haired boy to the ground, holding onto his collar.
"Jounouchi!"
"That's bad, Jounouchi-kun!" Yuugi warns.
"I can't forgive them!" Jounouchi states as he clenches his fist and brings it down.
Conveniently, Chouno-sensei appears at the scene and takes us to the office. "That's no good. Violence at the school is a major rule violation."
"It's their fault," Jounouchi states, annoyed.
"But the one that punched first was Jounouchi-kun."
"It's not Jounouchi's fault," Anzu admits.
"Right. The source of all this was you, wasn't it? There is no need to revise the rules, after all. Students are opposing you, saying they're fine as is." Chouno-sensei comments.
"No…" Anzu trails off.
"Masaki-san. Perhaps you might get expelled." Chouno-sensei adds.
Anzu, Yuugi, and Jounouchi look surprised, while I'm not. Knew she was up to something, and this just proves it. We leave the room to see the three boys standing on one side and Honda and Miho waiting for us on the other.
"Okay. You're next. Come in." Chouno-sensei calls.
"Okay." The boys agree.
"Once I finish my report, I'll have the staff decide on a punishment." Chouno-sensei states.
Jounouchi scoffs and walks off, with Honda following. Anzu is silent and gazing at the ground before she walks off, with Miho following. "Wait, Anzu!"
"Anzu…" Yuugi trails off.
Chouno-sensei laughs and closes the door. Yuugi and I share a look. "Yuugi, let's peek through the door. I don't trust her at all." I whisper.
"Yeah!" Yuugi whispers back in agreement.
We peek through the door to see Chouno-sensei and the three boys sitting down. "Everyone, good work. Thank you."
"It's no big deal." The purple-haired boy states.
"We can't refuse a request from Chouno-sensei." The blond-haired boy agrees.
Chouno-sensei places her hand on her right cheek. "That's true. Well, for this, I'll erase all the rule-breaking incidents from your records."
The blonde-haired boy stands up. "Then, we can go?"
"Okay. But don't break any more rules. Next time, you'll get expelled." Chouno-sensei scolds.
Yuugi closes the door and looks badly shocked by what we have heard. The Millennium Puzzle glows, and Yami takes over. "My Pharaoh!" I exclaimed, happy to see him.
He reaches over and pulls me to his chest. I rest my hand on his chest and look up at him. "My Queen." He kisses me on my forehead before gently taking my hand, and we walk further up and lean against the wall for Chouno-sensei. Yami takes off Yuugi's blazer and rests it against his shoulder as he folds his arms across his chest.
It isn't long before Chouno-sensei walks toward us. She stops in place when her gaze rests upon us. "It's game time. Chouno-sensei."
"Game? What are you suddenly babbling about?" Chouno-sensei questions, placing innocent.
"If I win, Anzu-tachi doesn't get punished," Yami states.
"I don't have time to play with you." Chouno-sensei denies it as she continues walking.
"If I lose…I'll keep quiet about you using the students to interfere." Yami offers.
This causes her to stop and look at Yami. "Just what can you be talking about?"
"And I'll do anything you say." Yami offers.
This gains her attention, and she turns to look at Yami fully. "Really? A student who causes doubt is cast on a teacher. I suppose I'd have you expelled."
We head inside the same room as earlier. "The game is a jigsaw puzzle. Using a mirror."
"Mirror?" Chouno-sensei questions.
Yami throws the two mirrors in the air. One lands in front of him and the other in from of Chouno-sensei, and they smash into pieces. "The rules are simple. The one that puts it together wins. However,…we're wearing these." He holds up two blindfolds.
"I see."
They place on the blindfolds and sit down. "Now…let's begin."
Chouno-sensei moves her hands around and lets out a low sound of pain when she catches her finger. "Use this, Sensei," Yami states, giving her some gloves. "Be careful. This is a dangerous game."
She puts on the gloves. "You too." She puts two pieces back together.
"I forgot to mention this…The game is over when it's complete." Yami adds.
"Really?" I watch as Chouno-sensei cheats, and she reaches up to remove the blindfold.
"This…goes here?" Yami mutters.
"Sounds like it's going well for you." Chouno-sensei comments.
"I forgot to mention one more thing. This is a Yami No Game."
"Yami No Game? What's that?" Chouno-sensei questions.
"Break the rules, and terrible punishment awaits you," Yami warns.
"Oh, really? I suppose I just can't tell like this." She states.
"How's it going? I'm already half done." Yami queries.
"No! I'm going to lose!" I watch as she places the last piece in place.
"The door of darkness has opened," Yami states, causing Chouno-sensei to look up at him, surprised. "Chouno-sensei. You used your position to hurt Anzu." A crack appears on her face, and Yami stands up and points at her. "You…merely wear the mask of a teacher. Under that mask…you hide your ugly true face!"
"Wh-what?!" More cracks appear in the shape of puzzle pieces.
"Just as a mirror reflects. For the people you have hurt…feel what it is to be hurt yourself!" A gold eye appears on Yami's forehead.
The golden eye glows. The puzzle pieces fall off Chouno-sensei's face to reveal a very old-looking face underneath, covered with wrinkles and bags. She lets out a yell when she sees her face in the mirror: "My makeup! My face!" She places her hands over her face before she runs out of the room crying.
Now that the game is over, the blindfold falls off Yami's face. "I told you. Break the rules, and you are punished." Yuugi's reflection is in Yami's mirror instead of his own.
"My Pharaoh, let's go home," I state softly as I take hold of his hand.
"Of course, my Queen." He agrees as he entwines our hands.
We get home and sneak upstairs without Grandfather realising. I watch as Yami's spirit leaves Yuugi's body, my hand still in Yami's. Yuugi's eyes open, and there is the usual purple. "Good night, Yuugi."
"Good night, Isis-nee," Yuugi replies happily before heading into his bedroom.
I let out a soft chuckle before I let go of Yami's hand and was about to open my bedroom door and head inside. Before I could, he gently pulled my arm and turned me around to face him. Before I could catch up, he pecks me on the lips before moving away. "Good night, my Queen."
"Good night, my Pharaoh," I reply softly before closing my bedroom door. I get in my pyjamas and go straight to sleep.

"Chouno-sensei hasn't said anything. I wonder if we're in the clear?" Jounouchi wonders as we sit up on the roof.
"It's probably fine. As a Beautification member, I think she was unreasonable."
"By the way, what was that jigsaw puzzle, Anzu?" Jounouchi asks.
Anzu places her hands together and sweatdrops. "S-sorry. It was just a prank."
Jounouchi scoffs. "Just a prank."
It would probably not be a good idea to tell him, as Mayumi confessed to someone else and no longer likes Jounouchi. So, he doesn't need to know what the puzzle was.
