A/N: edited a sentence because it made no sense!

You and Yusei arrived at the warehouse a couple of hours later. You've felt a sense of alarm ever since you both dueled those shadow soldiers. You both walked up to the door, only for it to be opened, meeting with the eyes of Crow. Crow grinned, "Hey strangers!" You and Yusei smiled with glee. You both felt yourself being pushed down by two small figures. Leo spoke, "Y/N! Y/N! You came back!" You ruffled Leo's hair and replied, "Hello, Leo. How have you been?" Leo asked, "Can we duel soon, Y/N? I want to show you how strong I've gotten." Yusei interjected, "How about you and Y/N duel later, Leo?" Leo pouted but made no objections. You then went quiet and quickly left. "Y/N, wait!" You ignored the cries and pretended you did not hear anything.

Akiza asked, "What was that about?" Yusei answered, "I don't know but this is not like Y/N." Yusei added, "Apparently, we were duelling two shadow soldiers. They didn't seem that powerful but when we dueled them, they nearly destroyed us." Crow said, "Maybe Y/N is scared that the nightmare she told us about might come true." Yusei said, "I don't know Crow but that might be one possibility. The one thing I do know is that we have to find Y/N before another shadow soldier does." Everyone nodded. Yusei, Crow and Jack went one way towards the bakery. Akiza, Leo and Luna went another direction. They were all determined to find you.

You couldn't take it, the shadow soldiers and everything else. In a way, you felt like you couldn't do anything. You didn't want the nightmare to come true. What if it did though? Did it mean that you had to fight your own friends against your will? You were currently walking around, trying to clear your mind. There was too much going on at once, and you couldn't think straight. Could you really defeat these shadow spirits? All of these questions raced through your mind.

Crow, Jack and Yusei were still looking for you, with no success. Crow said, "I'm going to look this way. Maybe she went to see a friend." Jack added, "I'm going towards where Akiza went." Yusei nodded, "I'm going to keep looking this way. If you find anything, tell me right away." They both nodded.

You wanted to cry. You wanted to be strong but you knew that you couldn't do it. You felt your heart sink at the fact that you couldn't save your aunt and uncle. If you lost your friends to the shadow spirits, you didn't know what you would do. You then saw a cloaked figure and they asked, "Are you okay?" You felt scared but you felt a good aura around this person. He took down his hood and looked at you. He said, "I'm not going to hurt you. The name's Blister. Who are you?" You stammered, "Y-Y/N. I'm a friend of Yusei's." He raised an eyebrow, "Yusei?" He then said, "Come inside." You came into his house, feeling awkward. He asked, "So why are you wandering the streets alone?" You gave him a brief summary of what happened the past couple of weeks. You said, "These shadow spirits possess innocent people and turn them into their army. Kind of like soldiers. Yusei and I had to fight two of them this morning." You added, "I had never felt so scared before." Blister asked, "How do you know so much about this?" You exhaled, "I have the gift of speaking with spirits. It's kind of freaky but it's useful at times." You and Blister spoke until Blister froze. Blister said, "Someone's here."

Blister walked out of his house and was met by a familiar gaze. He spoke, "Oh hey Yusei." Yusei looked panicked as he spoke, "Blister, have you seen a girl walking down the streets?" Blister sighed, "Actually yeah. She's inside." Yusei breathed out, "Thank goodness. Is she okay?" Blister replied, "Just a bit shaken up but other than that, she's just fine." Yusei was so happy to see you that he almost tackled you.

You saw Blister come up with Yusei following behind him. You froze. You felt guilty, and you didn't know what to say to him. Before you could say anything, Yusei went up to you and embraced you tightly, not wanting to let go. Blister murmured, "I'm going to go out." You looked down, not wanting to see Yusei's face. He lifted your chin, his baby blues gazing into your (e/c) eyes and said, "Don't ever scare us like that, Y/N. We were all so worried something bad had happened to you." You felt your cheeks get wet, "I-I-I'm sorry." You clutched on to Yusei's chest as you sobbed with guilt. You felt him sigh, stroking your hair as you cried. After your crying session was over, you buried your head into Yusei's chest. Yusei looked at you once more, before embracing you with all his might. You felt a light sensation on your forehead. Yusei had gently kissed you there. You felt your cheeks flush with embarrassment, making Yusei laugh. You smacked him, flustered, "W-What w-was that for?!?" Yusei responded with serious yet gentle tone, "I wanted to make you feel better." You blushed once more. Yusei then added, "I'll let the others know that I found you." You nodded slowly, still feeling a sense of guilt.
