Yuugi Motou shut his Algebra book and yawned. He hated Algebra. When it didn't put him to sleep, it just confused him try as he might to figure it out. It was damn near impossible. He heard some whispers behind him. He knew who it was already and what they were talking about. It had been the same thing for the past few weeks now. It was Jounouchi and Honda again.

"Man, I wish he would just go away! I mean I'm tired of having to baby-sit the little midget."

"Honda, if we tell Yuugi to go away then Yami won't hang out with us. We'll just put up with the twerp."

"Guess you're right Jou...."

"Yeah, unfortunatly..."

Yuugi hurried out of the calssroom not wanted to hear more. His eyes were filled with tears and once more, instead of heading home, he went to the woods. There was a place he always went to. It was hidden, hidden deep within the very heart of the woods. There was an entrance to a large cavern system, although no one knew about it except for Yuugi. When he had been younger something seemed to call out to him from the cavern and since then it has become his secret place. He often came there when he felt lonely and upset.

"W-why? Why do they hate me?!...I feel so alone...I just want some one to call my friend...someone who will always be there for me...who wont make fun of me... just.. just someone who will accept me and like me for the person I am..."

A girl with black hair and emerald green eyes walked into the Gameshop. She was 16 although she looked more like she was maybe 9 or 10. She was wearing a navy blue shirt and a pair of light brown baggy pants. Brushing her bangs out of her eyes, she walked up to the counter and looked at the elderly man. "Umm..excuse me? Are you Sugoroku Motou?"

"Why yes I am. Is there anything I can help you with young lady?"

"Actually...yes... I'm looking for Yuugi Motou. Its really important..." she answered.

"Yuugi....I havn't seen him since he left for school..." he replied looking slightly worried. "He was supposed to be back from school about 3 hours ago..."

The girl too became worried. What if she was too late....? "Do you have any idea where he might be?"

"He is probably with his friends...although... I've noticed that he hasn't been with them as much as usual latly...If I see him I can tell him you dropped by. May I ask your name?"

"Yeah, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't know me... I'm not from around here... My name is Hikaru Enchantrian. If you see him tell him to call this number." she answered handing a small slip of paper with a number hastilly scribbled on it. " Is is REALLY REALLY important that I talk to him.. so please have him call as soon as possible. Domo Argigato Motou-san!" she exclaimed as she runs out the door, nearly forgetting to pull it open on her way out.

"hehe..strange girl..." he commented as he watched her run down the street, knocking several people over.

Yami looked at the three people chatting in front of him, he wasn't really listening though. He would occasionally make indications as though he were but his thought were elsewhere. Where had his Aibou been? The three morons in front of him said they hadn't seen him since the bell rang and everyone left the school. He had tried to talk to him through the mind link but Yuugi wouldn't answer. He could tell Yuugi wasn't hurt or anything..but he wondered exactly what had upset his Aibou to the point of completly ignoring him...

"Yami?"

"Yo! Yami you alive in there? We asked you a question!"

Yami looked up slightly annoyed at them interrupting his thoughts.
