Chapter II: How it all began ... II

Two years earlier, date of issue of diplomas:
"What ?! Why ?! Why ?!" Joey seriously didn't believe that Yugi wanted to go to Egypt to study. But the news that Seto would accompany him knocked the blond out of the sand for good. "WE'RE DOING HIM! - DRAGON!" was the only thing he could say about it. Or rather, scream. Yugi no longer understood the world, Seto just looked at Joey unimpressed: "At most I will hurt you, Chihuahua." That was what Yugi didn't like when his two best friends started arguing, although he is now a little bit different got used to it. "But Joey, that was already clear since Yami went to Cairo!" he interjected so as not to let the argument escalate.
Yami, who is actually quite happy to be back in Egypt, had to live with Yugi and Seto. The only one who even fully supported it was Yugi's grandfather.But that wasn't goodbye forever, so not only should Joey get so upset about it, they would definitely be back.

Present, Cairo:
Yugi, Yami and Seto had just come from university to the park, which is right next to their 'home street', and were looking for a quiet place in the park café. This time it seemed busier than usual, there were quite a few young people there who looked more European. "Quite a mixed bunch." Yami muttered after all three had ordered something refreshing.
Seto just grinned slightly and immediately put his ice-cold mask back on. Yugi meanwhile looked at the door and his jaw dropped when a white-bearded man with a flowing, beige robe came in. Seto and Yami looked at him in surprise. "What's going on now?" Yami mumbled to Seto. He just shrugged his shoulders when his little friend was able to break out of the rigidity: "UNCLE ALBUS ?!"
