(Is written from Yami's point of view ^^)
Part 1
When I woke up this morning, I didn't know where I was at first. It was a strange feeling not to wake up in the chamber of the Millennium Puzzle. Since Yugi disappeared, I felt empty and alone.
I turned left and saw that Tea was still soundly asleep. So I lay down on my back again and stared at the still starry sky.
It was kind of scary to be alone in the forest with Tea. Since Joey, Duke and Tristan wanted to look for Yugi on their own, I had to take Tea with me. Sometimes she'd looked at me anxiously, as if I'd suddenly jump on her and strangle her or something like that. Something stirred. I started up, but it was only our horses that had started to eat. I lay down again and took a deep breath.
When we both got up and got on our horses, we continued on our way.
"You Yami", Tea began and I started,,Oh sorry. Did I scared you? "" No, I ... I was just lost in thought. It just pisses me off that Yugi's ghost is held captive by Doma !! "
Suddenly something tore me from my horse. I hit my head hard on the hard ground of the forest and everything went black ...... ... ...
At some point in the night I woke up. The first thing I saw was Tea's worried face: “Yami, how are you? ", she asked quietly. I didn't really know what to answer and asked a question:" What happened? " Falling ground.
"An arrow hit you in the left shoulder," she began with a serious voice, "then you fell off the horse. I thought you broke your neck because you hit so hard, so I'm off the horse I jumped and ran to you immediately, I was relieved when I felt your pulse."I sat up slowly." I ...... .. I ... ..! "She pushed around. I felt as if she was turning a little red. Then she looked deep into my eyes and I looked back questioningly: What is it? ", I asked." Well ... ... I ... I ... ", she looked at me with glassy eyes, somehow she didn't really want to get out with the language, but then," I have a crush on you! !!!! "
She threw herself into me, sobbing loudly and I closed her in my eyes. I was slightly surprised and didn't know what to say, so I closed my eyes.
I remembered the time Tea spoke to me after the Kaiba Battle City tournament. At that time she wanted to say something like that, but hadn't dared because Yugi had been there.
I was torn from my memories. Tea took the opportunity to kiss me. I stared at her in amazement and questioning at the same time. When our eyes met, she looked at the ground in shame.Maybe she didn't want that, but then she just took the opportunity. That's what Tea was like. I smiled at the thought. Still, she had been embarrassed. She caught my gaze again and asked: "How do you feel?"
At first I didn't even know what she meant, but then I understood. Once again I didn't know what to say and looked uncertainly at the floor. I couldn't show my feelings for her. I liked her of course, but did I love her too ……….? I caught her gaze again and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Tea, but I don't know what I'm feeling myself at the moment!"
,, What does this mean? ", she asked.
“I don't know, but…! "Well tell me ...!" She yelled at me with tears in her eyes,
"Do you feel like me or not !?"
,, Yes damn ...! "I whispered, barely audible, but Tea caught it and fell around my neck. I screamed in pain, my shoulder pulsed when Tea touched it.
"Sorry Yami, I want ...!",,All right! ", I interrupted her with a pained face," It's not your fault! "Tea looked at me questioningly and I pointed to my shoulder. She understood: "Do you think you can get up!?"
,,I guess so! "I got up and noticed that all my limbs were hurting. But I clenched my teeth. We got on our horses and rode through the forest at a pace." Do you know who shot me off the horse? " I asked. I usually sat safely on horseback. In ancient Egypt no one had been able to tear me out of the saddle. ,,No! ", Tea replied," I was worried about you and I went straight to you. I didn't look who shot the arrow. "Tea shivered because it was cold and slowly night fell. I handed her my jacket. She looked at me: And you? "Don't worry, I'm not really cold, I find it nice and cool!" I grinned. Tea just looked at me, but finally grabbed my jacket: Thanks!"" It's alright! ", I was still grinning, I think we should rest here. We've been riding through the woods all day now and you certainly haven't slept since last night. "She nodded briefly and we got off the horses. When I had tied them up, I lay down next to Tea. My shoulder was still twitching slightly, but the cool wind numbed her. I noticed Tea snuggled up against me and wrapped my arms around her."
So we fell asleep.
Part 2

When I woke up the next morning, Tea sat by the river and put her feet in the water. It was pleasantly warm in the forest today, unlike yesterday. I got up and walked slowly to her. She only noticed me when I was standing next to her. I looked at her inquiringly: What's going on? "I kind of twisted my foot yesterday while riding!"
,,How did you do that!?! And since when have you been awake? "" I only got up recently. "
Somehow, Tea had changed. She was pale and dismissive, as if her thoughts were elsewhere, just not here.Then I noticed her look. Her eyes were bleary. Besides, I couldn't remember her twisting her foot. We hadn't ridden past anywhere where you could twist your foot even remotely. We had neither got off our horses nor got off our horses. Tea had changed something. Was it tea at all ???
I had an idea ...: Tea tell me, do you think Joey, Tristan and Duke will find him? "Who?"
,, Tea you know who I mean. Yugi of course !!! "
She looked at me: “You don't believe that yourself! ", she said scornfully," He's gone forever since the duel with Doma! "
I looked at the floor, at that time Yugi had wanted to keep me from playing Sliver and I had shaken him off. I still clearly remembered my words: >> This is my duel, partner. << What was I thinking? I looked at Tea: “Tea…. what do you think, is Doma really a native egyptian? "I smiled." Who put the flea in your ear?", a smile crossed her lips," He comes from Iceland! "" Thank you ... .. I didn't want to know more. What's your name? "I smiled." What's my name? My name is Hesta! "I looked at Hesta:" Tea? ..... How long have you been called Hesta ?? "Hesta noticed that he had betrayed himself and showed his true form. He was 2 heads taller than me and had black-blue hair and eyes." Where did you hide Tea ?! ", I was angry," Now tell me! " !!!! ",, To find out you have to defeat me in a duel!" ,, Ok let's duel! I play Kuriboh in defense mode and put a kart …… .. "A strong gust of wind drove through the forest and suddenly Doma was in our midst. We were both frightened, Hesta and I. Doma looked at Hesta:" You idiot! " he, ,, why did you give up your cover !? "" I ...... I ", Hesta stuttered.
“You could have killed him !! ", Doma grumbled and pointed at me with his finger. Then he turned completely to Hesta:" And now you better get out of here! ",, Doma where did you hide tea!?! ", I spoke up while Hesta scratched the curve." There! "He pointed to a nearby bridge that led across the river. “I'm only interested in Yugi, so I'll leave it to you! "Suddenly he was gone as if swallowed from the ground. I looked over at the bridge. There was Tea there. At least I hoped it was Tea.
part 3
I ran to her as fast as I could, but stopped short of her. It was full of blood. I knelt next to her and was relieved to see that she was still breathing. Still, I didn't dare to wake her up because she looked so fragile.
I then finally overcame my fear and put my hands on her shoulders. Without my being able to suspect it, she opened her eyes and I was startled. Then she straightened up and stood up. It fell around my neck and I slipped off the narrow footbridge of the bridge and could just hold on tight, otherwise I would have fallen into the river 20m below me.I pulled myself up, but then again felt a terrible pain in my left shoulder and let go of my left hand and almost slipped. But Tea had reacted with lightning speed and held me. Then she helped me up. I looked at her. How could you muster so much strength when you were so …….! Moment! Unless it wasn't her blood at all. ,, Um… ..Tea… ..!? ", I started, but Tea interrupted me:" I know the blood. It comes from a man with black and blue hair ... !! "" Hesta !? "I interrupted her.
,, Uh yes, I don't know what his name is! But it doesn't matter. Anyway, he held me and I stabbed him in the foot with my pocket knife. But then I don't know what to do next. He probably drugged you because you didn't hear my calls.
As Tea and I walked across the bridge, I had to think about the horror the whole time I saw Tea. There was a pang in my heart. Wasn't there more than a strong friendship between us?I didn't hope so because I had to focus on Yugi.
When we got to the horses, we got on and continued on our way. I wondered why Doma had released Tea. I was torn from my brooding. We heard screams, screams that made our blood freeze. We dashed through the forest to see who had been yelling like that.
We came to a clearing where a person lay huddled and trembling whom we knew only too well. ,, Kaiba !! "I uttered as I jumped from my white horse. I knelt next to him and turned him onto his back. He looked unharmed, but then he bent his head to the side and lay motionless. Tea had come up and held his hand up. Blood flowed. She pulled up his sleeve and we saw that someone had cut his artery. Without thinking I took off my collar and wrapped it tightly around Kaiba's wrist. I wanted to cry when I wasn't Kaiba would like to.Still, nobody had the right to kill another. I got up: "Tea, I have to go look for Joey and the others. Stay here with Kaiba !! "Tea got up, about to have an emotional breakdown.
She hugged me: “Be careful. I cannot and will not live without you. "She turned around, but I held her
