THE DATE THAT SAID IT ALL

Erika woke up early the next day so she could get ready for her date with Seto. She was a bit nervous because she wanted to go to the museum again, but she wasn't sure if Seto would be okay with it.

"Okay Erika, it will be alright. I know how to get him to the museum," Erika said to herself.

(Yugi's room)

"Yugi, I'm nervous," Yami said out of the blue.

"Why?" Yugi asked.

"I'm not sure if I feel okay with going with Erika on this date."

"Yami I think I know why Erika wants you to come."

"Why?" Yami asked with interest.

"I think she wants to convince Kaiba that his past is real," said Yugi thinking really hard.

"Maybe," said Yami agreeing. It would make a lot of sense. Then again, Yugi knew the real reason why Erika wanted Yami there. She needed to know if she loved Kaiba more or Yami. It was going to be a difficult choice. 'And what's worse is that, Erika may even fall for Marik. This means that history will repeat itself in an even crazier way, but I don't think I should tell Erika right now. After all she has enough on her mind' thought Yugi as Erika came in after showering and drying her hair.

"Yugi I need your help, I don't know what to wear," Erika was panicking.

Yugi sighed as he went into Erika's drawers to help her find something to wear.

(10:30 Motto game shop, downstairs)

"Oh Kaiba, how nice to see you," smiled Grandpa.

"Yes it is a honor to be here.it Erika ready?" asked Seto wanting to get out of the game shop.

"Let me check. Erika Kaiba's here," Grandpa yelled up the steps.

"Coming," Erika came downstairs.

"WOW!" Seto whispered. Erika was wearing a tight light blue tank top, black bellbottoms, and black pointed boots. As promised she was wearing the Millennium Puzzle and as though she read Seto's mind, she had her duel deck with her.

"Ready?" asked Erika. Seto didn't answer. He was in shock of how well Erika was dressed. "Hello? Seto? Are you awake?"

"What?" Seto was a bit confused. "Oh yea let's go."

Erika and Seto left holding hands and went out of the shop. Yugi came downstairs and watched then until they were out of site.

"What's wrong Yugi?" asked Grandpa sensing something wasn't right.

"I don't know. It's just that.Grandpa can we really trust Kaiba?" Yugi asked.

"I think we should give him a chance, besides, Yami is with them," smiled Grandpa.

"How did you know?" asked Yugi.

"Yugi, it doesn't take a genius to know that Yami is real and that your sister, Erika, is in love with him and Seto Kaiba. Besides, I went to the museum yesterday and Ishizu told me about Yami and Erika's past. Which means that Erika is probably going to fall in love with Marik," explained Grandpa. Yugi was really impressed. He didn't know that Grandpa took the time to find out what has been bugging Yugi since Erika first came here. However, Yugi was proud that Grandpa decided to find out to try and help Erika and Yugi.

"Thanks Grandpa," Yugi went over to Grandpa and gave him a hug.

"So Erika what do you want to do today?" Seto asked.

Erika bit her lip. She was hoping to find some way to find out how to get Seto to the museum without him finding out. "Umm.what ever you like," suggested Erika trying not to tell him her plan.

"Okay. But you have to trust me," said Seto.

"Alright," agreed Erika.

Seto lead Erika all over the city of Domino. They first went to see a show and when it ended Seto took Erika out for a nice lunch. They talked about they have been doing for the past 12 years and it seemed to relax Seto. In fact he was actually smiling, that is he was smiling until.

"Erika! Hey," it was Joey. He ran up to Erika and Seto. "What's up?" he then saw Seto. "Don't tell m you're on a date with Kaiba!"

Erika didn't know what to say. Fortunately Seto did. "So what if she is on a date with me? What are you going to do about it Mutt?" Seto asked with a smirk on his face.

"KAIBA! IF ERIKA WASN'T HERE I'DBE KICKING YOUR BUTT!" hollered Joey.

"Seto, come on," Erika pulled Seto away, for she sensed danger.

"See ya later mutt," smirked Seto as he let Erika drive him away.

Joey just stood there. He didn't know what to say and wasn't even sure if he believed what he saw.

"Seto Kaiba, what do you always have to pick a fight with Joey?" Erika asked in anger.

"That mutt deserves everything that I say and he knows it," said Seto. This was not the man Erika knew. This was not Seto this was Kaiba.

"You should really give Joey a chance, the two of you have much more in common than you think," frowned Erika.

Seto looked strait into Erika's eyes. Nobody ever said that Kaiba and the mutt were alike. "What are you talking about?" Seto put his hands on Erika's arms so that even if she didn't want to explain what she meant, se couldn't get away.

Erika didn't want to get away, she wanted to make Kaiba see the truth. "Think about it. The two of you both care about younger siblings and will do anything to protect them," Erika said staring strait into her love's eyes. "You both try to act strong and powerful, when you really aren't because there is someone stopping you from becoming insane with power. For example one of the people that keep you and Joey from becoming insane with power is your siblings. You can't fight it Seto. You and Joey are alike, no matter how much the two of you want to admit it," Erika then began to cry.

Seto was afraid to hurt Erika any more than she already was. He pushed her body closer to his and held her close. Like he never wanted to let Erika go. All Seto Kaiba, CEO of Kaiba Corp. could do was hold the girl he loved like it was the end of the world. "Erika, I'm sorry. How can I make it up to you?" Seto whispered in her ear.

The truth was that the crying Erika was doing was all part of her plan. "By trusting me to take you somewhere," Erika began to smile.

Seto whipped away the last of her tears and nodded.

"Thank you Seto. Now what you have to do is shut your eyes and don't open them until I say so," Erika said as she took Seto's hand and began to drive the blind Kaiba to the museum.

It was a silent walk. Erika was not about to let her plan go in vain. She had to make Seto believe. If she couldn't get him to believe in the heart of the cards than, she had to get him to believe in his past.

'Yami get ready' Erika said mentally.

'Alright. I just hope you know what you're doing' Yami answered back.

Erika walked into the museum and down to the restricted section where Ishizu and Marik were.

"We're here Seto," whispered Erika. "You can open your eyes now."

Seto opened his eyes and saw that he was in the Domino City Museum. "Erika, WHY DID YOU BRING ME HERE?" yelled Seto.

"Seto there is something you need to see," Erika quivered in fear.

"And what is that might I ask?" Seto said more softly seeing the fear in Erika's eyes.

"Ancient stone tablets that you must see Seto Kaiba and the only way to get you to believe in them was to have Erika bring you here with the Millennium Puzzle," came the soft voice of Ishizu.

"More tablets?" said Seto. He remembered the first time he saw the ancient tablets 12 years ago.

"Yes Kaiba, but these tablets I think you will find more interesting than the ones my sister showed you 12 years ago," said Marik. "Now follow me."

Seto didn't know what to do. He knew that if he didn't follow Marik than Erika might hate him forever, and if he followed Marik than Seto is going to say you're wasting my time and still risk Erika hating him. In the end he did follow Marik vowing to keep his mouth shut.

Soon Marik and Ishizu stop in front of the curtain that hid the ancient scriptures.

"Kaiba, you are about to see something that you may not ever believe. But it explains why you and Erika get along so well," said Ishizu as she pulled the curtain to show the tablets. The one that caught Kaiba's eye the most was the one of him and Erika.

"What does this mean?" he asked in surprise.

"The tablets you see before you is the past of Erika. This one is about when the great sorcerer, or yourself Kaiba and the one girl that could control hi heart," Ishizu pointed to the first tablet. "This one is about the Pharaoh of the North and his queen. She was the one that said he had to be locked away in the Millennium Puzzle for she saw the events of the future as she was the original holder of the Millennium Necklace."

"This tablet is about the Pharaoh of the South and an Escort that he feel in love with, that was me," said Marik pointing to he third tablet. He then point to the last tablet. "We have been able to uncover many secrets about Erika however, this tablet is the hardest one. We were finally able to uncover something."

"Why should I even believe this?" Kaiba asked with a smirk.

"I'll show you," said Erika taking off the Millennium Puzzle.

As though on cue, Yami in a ghostly form appeared out of the puzzle.

"This is impossible," Seto was in shock.

"It is Kaiba. You didn't believe your past 12 years ago and this was the only way to get you to believe in the truth," came Yami's deep voice.

"Seto there is something else you need to know. I'm the girl in those tablets. The pharaoh of the south is Marik, the pharaoh of the north is Yami, and the sorcerer is you Seto. This last tablet I stand alone and we don't know what it means," Erika turned her eyes away from Seto.

"Well, we did learn something," Shadi appeared out of the darkness.

"WHAT? WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED?" shouted Yami.

"We learned that Erika is the only one that can free you from the Millennium Puzzle, but.."said Marik.

"But what?" asked Seto as though he already knew.

"Erika will have to kill Yami in a circle of the ancient sand," frowned Ishizu.

"We have the ancient sand but we are not sure if Erika would kiss Erika the pharaoh for we know her feelings for you," said Shadi.

Erika looked at Seto. He sighed.

"It's only one kiss, I guess it would be alright," frowned Seto.

Erika kissed Seto on the check. "Thank you and I promise to make it up to you," she whispered.

Then she and Yami stood in the middle of the room as Shadi drew the sand in a circle around them. And very slowly, Erika and Yami pressed their lips together. It was a slow and passionate kiss. Nothing like the one that Erika gave Seto. However, Seto tried not to be jealous because if he did than something might go wrong with his relationship. He loved Erika and he hoped that she loved him back.
