Jenna Shedoru simply couldn't believe what she had just heard. She stared at Mr. Walters, her employer at Cineplex Odeon. “What do you mean, I'm fired?! What did I DO?!”

“I received a complaint from one of your fellow employees that you were rather angry at her over some matter, and you yelled at her, which was bad enough, but it was right behind the concession stand where any customer could see it. Such behavior cannot and WILL NOT be tolerated.”

She almost blew her top. This wasn't her day. She had woken up to find her fridge in her little one bedroom apartment had stopped working during the night, and half the food in it was now spoiled. Her landlord was getting on her ass about paying her rent and threatening to evict her, and her bills were piling up. “Oh, so I'm just supposed to sit back and let her walk all over me? She and her little bubble butt friend waltzed out on me, leaving me to watch all the concession stands on my own! The ice cream stand, hot lunch, specialty coffee, and the main concession! There are supposed to be two people on at ALL times watching them all! She came back, but her friend didn't, I asked if I could go on my break, and she immediately looked at me, and told me NO because of the rule I just pointed out to you! She has been a pain in my ass ever since I got hired on! Why don't you go fire HER sorry ass instead?!”

His gaze hardened. “You have also been late twice in the last two months...”

“There is a train track on my way to work! I can't control when the train chooses to go bounding on by, you know!! And I don't have a cell phone to tell you when that happens because I can't afford one! Neither of those times was MY fault!!”

“You are an unreliable employee, and that's all there is to it, Miss Shedoru. We cannot have you on board any longer.” He handed her her last paycheck, which was only going to amount to about $280... for the last six days of work. “At least you won't have to wait to get this, since I took the liberty of getting it together myself. Now, I'm sorry, but things just weren't working out for you here.”

She scowled. “Fine. Be a prick. This job was shit anyways! Later, asshole!!” She turned on her heels and left the office, making sure to slam the door behind her as she left, catching the attention of a few of the employees and customers that were in the main hall. She took off her over shirt uniform and cap, letting her long blonde hair billow out and tossed them on the main desk, along with her name tag, in front of Lance Peterson, one of her fellow employees who happened to have a serious crush on her.

“Jenna? What's up?” He asked rushing to his feet and following behind her. The theatre was pretty well deserted right now, so he had no customers to deal with.

“I was just fired.” she stated simply, scowling the whole way.

“WHAT? Why?! What happened?!”

“Brittany Greer is what happened! I told you the break story, right? Well, she went whining to Mr. Walters, and he fired me on the spot! So I told him what happened, and he didn't even care! He's just got a hard on for that stuck up little bitch!”

He sighed and shook his head. “Damn, man. I'm sorry to hear about that. The world sucks today, for sure.” Then he brightened. “Hey, why don't I bring you out for coffee? You know, to cheer you up!”

She sighed. “Sorry, Lance. I would, but I have to get home, get changed, and go out to my parents place. They're having this big dinner and they really want me there.”

He looked crushed immediately. “All right. But, hey! I'll drop you a line later in the week, all right? Maybe we could hook up!”

She smiled a little. “I guess it's a possibility. But you better get back to your post before Walters comes and fires your ass too. I'll see you around.” She gave him a small wave and headed out to her car.

Home was about twenty blocks away. She pulled her small 1985 Omni into the parking lot and got out with a sigh, making her way into her apartment. She pulled out a bag of chips from her cupboard and picked up the phone, dialing her parents.

“Hi, Mom? It's me. Listen, I just got home from work. I'm just going to get ready and head out, all right?” Her mother picked up on the tone in her voice and asked if there was something wrong. It was amazing how she could pick up on little things like that. “I got fired, but don't worry. I'll have another job in no time.... Yeah, I'll explain what happened when I get there. It'll be about two hours or so, so just sit tight. I'll see you soon. Buh bye.” She hung up the phone with a sigh, and set about having a quick shower and getting changed. Then she spent a few minutes on her hair and applied a little makeup, snatched up her keys and headed out.

The drive to her parents place took about an hour, since they lived way out in the country. She was about twenty minutes away, driving on a rarely used back road, when she heard a loud bang and felt as her front left tire blew on her. She struggled with the wheel and pulled over a little. Then she climbed out and swore.

“FUCK!!!! This is JUST what I needed!! A fucking blow out in fucking nowheresville!” She moaned. There weren't any houses for miles, she had no way of contacting her parents, or anyone for that matter, and hardly anyone ever used this road. “My day just couldn't get any worse...”

Then something even SHE couldn't predict happened. All at once, it felt as if the Earth were shaking to bits beneath her feet. She screamed, in alarm, wondering what was going on. She was living in Alberta! There were no Earthquakes in Alberta! What was going on?!

Then a hole of darkness seemed to open up beneath her feet like a great gaping maw, all set to swallow her up, a strange violet mist seemingly glowing in the darkness. She plummeted downwards, and through the mist, saw strange beasts, the likes of which she'd never seen before, some with gaping maws filled with razor sharp teeth. Some were tiny, barely the size of a chicken, while others were enormous... the size of her apartment complex.

An insane fear tore through her mind as she continued her descent, and she let out a blood curdling, bone chilling scream, as she saw a point of light appear before her, drawing nearer and nearer. Then all at once, she was blinded by the light, felt her body scream in pain, and then saw only darkness.

The Pharaoh and his six high priests were doing battle with Bakura and his Diabound monster, when it unleashed a special attack, that unexpectedly went awry when High Priest Seto's monster countered it with a special move of its own. The end result was some strange mass of darkness that opened up above the battle field. Even Bakura looked dumbfounded upon seeing this strange phenomenon.

“What... is THAT?!” Pharaoh asked, staring at the strange swirling mass.

Isis, his priestess stiffened, fingering her necklace. “My Pharaoh! I am detecting a great disturbance! Some sort of imbalance! It is as if it is a rip of some kind in space or time, linking throughout the Shadow Realm!”

The other priests and even Bakura stared at her in alarm, and then their heads whipped back to watch as they heard a terrified scream emanate from the mass of darkness. Seconds later, a small form fell through, bouncing off Diabound and across the main hall, slamming into the floor, bouncing again, and hitting into the wall before falling one last time and lying still.

Bakura smirked. “I don't know what that was all about, but I don't really care.” he said, as the portal seemed to collapse in on itself. “It is time for me to destroy you all!”

Pharaoh frowned. “Mahado! Isis! Check what it was that fell through! I will take care of Bakura!” He activated the power of his Millennium Puzzle, and summoned Obelisk, much to everyone's surprise. He delivered one hit to Diabound, causing much damage to his masters Ba.

Bakura's eyes were wide now, and he growled. “I leave, but I will return!! Mark my words... you have not seen the last of me! And when next we meet, I will destroy you all!!” He activated his monsters special ability once more, and the two of them vanished through the wall.

Obelisk vanished once more, no longer needed.

Isis and Mahado gasped in alarm. “Pharaoh!” she called, from beside the still form.

Pharaoh approached, the rest of his priests in tow... and when they saw the figure for themselves, their eyes went wide in shock.

The figure was a young woman, but that wasn't what had shocked them. Her skin was the color of a fine pale cream, and her hair was golden like the sun. Her clothes were incredibly odd, some strange tunic that covered her upper torso, clinging to her body, with a light covering to keep off the cold, and strange blue coverings on her lower body, covering her down to her ankles where she wore a pair of feet protectors, black in color. Again, the leggings were close fitting, showing off a fine figure. She was undoubtedly very beautiful... if slightly unusual in appearance.

“She... looks human... except for her hair and skin...” Akhenaden, the eldest of the priests said in awe.

Seto growled. “She was brought here by Bakura and his Diabound! She may be a threat and that is a risk I am not willing to take!” he said, pointing his Rod at the unconscious form.

Pharaoh's gaze snapped in his direction. “Wait, Seto! I don't think Bakura knew what was going on any more than we did. We cannot kill her simply because she was brought here by accident.”

Akhenaden stepped forward, his Eye flaring slightly. “I detect only scant traces of evil within this woman's soul... and her Ba is hardly a threat. I could see no reason why Bakura would willingly bring a person like her here. She could be no benefit to him...”

Pharaoh nodded again. “I agree. And judging from the scream we heard before she came here, I would guess she is just as confused as we are.” He looked at them. “I want this woman's injuries to be treated, and let her rest in a guest room.”

Seto frowned. “I say we have guards in her room to keep an eye on her... just in case.”

He nodded. “Very well.”

The healers were summoned and they looked the girl over, announcing that her injuries, although serious, were not life threatening. She had a broken arm, which they healed with the help of Egyptian Magic, and several broken ribs that they simply bandaged, knowing they would heal quickly on their own. Other than that, she had bruises and scrapes from her fall that didn't demand any special treatment, other than to be cleaned and disenfected. Then the healers carefully lifted the young woman and brought her to a guest room. Two guards followed, after being given strict orders by the Pharaoh to inform him when she awoke.
