Part 6
I'm sorry that took so long I forgot I had an eye appointment and I had to leave really suddenly. This is the last boring part I promise. After this things start to pick up.

Joey: Hey yug did you see the paper this morning?!
Yugi: *yawns* no I was up to late last night working on my homework…
Joey: Well look at this!

*He slaps down the paper and on the front was* “The Shadow Game?” an article follows about how gangs from out of the city were taking over the local gangs. Last night one of the gangs were found Half dead in the middle of the street. There were 15 total. When questioned all they could do was twitch and moan. There was only one that could get anything out. He had said ‘Shadow Game’ before he fell into convulsions…

Yugi: *looking up* Well now that is interesting.
Joey: *Slams his fist on the table* Yugi, You know what this means. We might have a new enemy.
Yugi: Perhaps, But what are we going to do about it?…
Teacher: *walks into the room* Now, I’m sure you all have seen the paper or have at least heard from someone else. I have a notice from the office that no one is to go anywhere without someone accompanying him or her. It also says that anyone with any information on the subject is to report to the office immediately.
Joey: *whispers* I seems that the school is really concerned about this.
Teacher: It doesn’t say in the paper but none of the kids that were involved in the fight last night were killed. As such school will be getting out early today so everyone gets home before dark.
Yugi: *whispers back* Yeah, I’ve never seen them let us get out of school for anything
Teacher: (Is droning on and on about the policy _-_zzzz)
Yugi: *sigh*

~~~~~~~~~ As soon as school gets out ~~~~~~~~~

The gang meets in front of the school to talk over the recent happenings. Critha walks up to them.

Critha: Hey did you all hear exactly why we got out of school?
Tea: No just about the fight
Critha: Well the buzz around school is that the office got a threatening letter from the gang saying that anyone that’s alone or out after dark will fall into the same fate as the others. Isn’t that creepy!
Joey: Hey! How come you heard that before me? I’m the rumor king around here!
Critha: I got it directly with someone that was in the office at the time.
Yugi: How was that?
Critha: It was that girl that came the same day I did. I think her name is Kara.
Tristan: Do you know where she is now?
Yugi: Yeah I wanna talk to her to see exactly what she overheard.
Critha: I haven’t seen her since this morning. I think she went home already because she looked really scared when she told me.
Danielle: *Overhears them* I saw her not to long ago. She said she wanted to go to the library to finish up on that project our class has.
Yugi: She went there alone?
Danielle: Actually, yes, I guess she did. It’s just the library I’m sure she’s fine.
Yugi: She shouldn’t be alone. No one should Lets’ go see if she’s still there.
Danielle: I’m sure she’s fine. We don’t need to go bother her.
Tea: I would feel better to know she has someone else there with her.
Yugi: Yeah and I still want to ask her what she heard.
Danielle: ok…

They walk into the school building. Turning down the hall they can see Kara turning down the left hall when the Library is down the right. They all follow silently. When they look behind the corner they can see her going into the girls bathroom.

Danielle: Let me go to her. There’s two of us then…
Joey: Oh don’t worry ladies Joey is here to protect you!
Tea: Oh brother…
Tristan: Yeah and I’m here two.
Tea: Great two monkeys instead of one.
Joey: what was that!
Tea: You heard me!
Danielle: I’m going to go see if she’s all right she has been in there a long time.

She walks down the hall just as Kara comes out of the bathroom. They exchange a few words that the other couldn’t hear. Then they walk back.

Kara: I thought you were all supposed to be going home now?
Joey: Were here to protect you!
Tea: and who’s going to protect you
Tristan: Lets go home guys
Yugi: Hey Kara, You were the one that overheard the threat note right.
Kara: ahuh
Yugi: What exactly did you hear? Was there anything else about the shadow realm... thing?
Kara: No sorry I didn’t hear anything about that. Just that if anyone’s caught alone then they’ll go through the same thing that the other did last night.
Yugi: I see

They walk along the street with Joey and Tea still bickering. Kara and Danielle fell back from the others a bit and were talking in low whispers. Yugi was caught up in his own mind to notice

Yami: It seems that were going to have to fight once more…
Yugi: But you beat the darkness already! Why do you have to again?
Yami: It is my destiny to fight evil
Yugi: so? It’s not fair we should be having a good time right now!
Yami: I know
Yugi: We shouldn’t have to worry about the darkness anymore or the shadow games
Yami: I know
Yugi: So what do they want?
Yami: That I don’t know. We will have to wait and see.

Kara taps him on the shoulder startling him.

Yugi: y-yes?
Kara: I thought you might want to know. I found a note in my locker after I overheard the threat this morning and it had your name in it. It said that you don’t need to worry about the recent events. It’s being taken care of. Do you know what that means?
Yugi: WHA?! Do you still have it? *She nods and takes it out. He reads it over. Then looks back at her* Why was it put in your locker?
Kara: I don’t know. Maybe because I overheard the threat. It scared me so much that I forgot about it until just now, sorry.
Yugi: That’s all right, but I don’t think you should be alone right now. Since they already know about you your in danger. You can stay at my place if you want.
Kara: *a look of relief passes over her face* really?! I was so afraid all day. I couldn’t think strait.
Yugi: Its fine and I don’t think my grandpa will care.
Kara: oh thank you Yugi!

They walk on and Kara falls behind again to talk to Danielle. A grin falls across both there faces. Thously Night starts to fall
