"Oh, I see..." Anzu said looking down, deciding it'd be best not to ask anymore questions.

((Well, I suppose I'll just jump ahead now to Atemu arriving in Japan to give us something to work off of. I'll be vague on exactly when it is, so you guys can decide on that.))
Atemu sat in the back of Onuris' private jet, sitting across the table from the very man. It had been a rather confusing couple of days, the typical training routine that had been strictly followed every day had quickly ceased as plans for their last minute trip had begun. He wasn't sure where he was going or why, and Onuris had the curtain pulled on all of the windows, which didn't help him much.
But he had a feeling that his training was still in session, this was just another part of it. And he liked that, this added a little spice to the same -old-same he'd been dealing with. And present a potential challenge. The only question was, what exactly was he going to do?
He could feel that the plane was finally beginning to land. He was happy to have an oppurtunity to get out of the Ra forsaken vehicle. It had been a long ride and he did not particularly liked the confined space.
"If you don't mind my asking, sir, where exactly are we? And why?"
Onuris cleared his throat before speaking, "We are in a small city known as Domino, Japan. This is because there's someone here we'd like for you to take care of for us. Consider it sort of like a test, to see what you gained from all of your training."
Atemu was rather shocked to hear that they had come all the way to Japan. It seemed a like an unreasonable distance just to give him a test, when really he could just "take care of" any old person. So clearly, there was something more to this than just a test. This person had to be a major threat to the organization.
Having given Atemu a moment to think, Onuris opened a portfolio that had been sitting on the table between them and pushed it towards Atemu. It contained the basic details of his target, his address, the school he attended. This immediately struck Atemu as odd, since he didn't understand how as high schooler could possibly pose such a threat, but he quickly forgot when he saw the boy's picture. The resemblance between the two of them was uncanny. To a stranger they could have easily passed as brothers, he himself was even willing to question a possible relation of some sort.
"His name is Yuugi Moutou." Onuris stated.
Yuugi Moutou...The didn't set off any particular alarms in Atemu's mind, not to mention that the boy was Japanese, born and raised. His momentary considering was simply an overreaction to the similarness of their looks. He felt foolish of having even considered it.

((I don't mind if you do but it's not my choice. ^^;; Just as a warning, ever since the guild got subforums this rp hasn't been very active. Might just be a coincidence.))

((Sorry, yes, you can be Honda. (For some reason I had thought I already posted.)
I'm just not sure what to post at this time, and was sort of waiting for inspiration to hit. XP Also wasn't sure if they wanted to finish up their little side thingy. ^.^;; ))

(*tilts head* This is so dead because of the subforums. Totally not coincidence. I even forget about this. It's hard to remember we have subforums. I've got absolutely nothing at the moment. Just waiting on Yuugi or Atemu or some fiery explosion.)

((I doubt most of us are extremely into the whole hanging out at Bakura's house thing, so I agree with Cloth Roses that we need something exciting to happen; something exciting enough to draw all the characters together. 3nodding ))

((Well, I was the last one to post IC, which is why I haven't posted anything else yet. I'm waiting for everyone to decide what they want to do with it. sweatdrop
I suppose I could post again. I just figured it would be better to give someone else a turn first...))

((Alright. But there does need to be some sort of time jump where you guys are for it to make sense. Since Atemu was revived that night, and in his part of the story probably a week or so has passed at least. So obviously, time would have had to have passed in Japan, too. I'll leave the time a little open to interpretation though.))
Onuris had further briefed Atemu on the information about Yuugi Moutou. Where he lived and went to school. He lived with a mother and grandfather. He tended to get only mediocre grades, but was rather good at playing games. In particular, he was excellent at duel monsters. Currently, he was the best player in the world. The Yuugiou, or king of games.
Atemu thought this was rather strange. He'd been praticing games day in and day out. They'd had him training nonstop in all sorts of games, but never once had duel monsters even been mentioned. Why would they do that, and then send him to face and opponent who was master of probably the only game he wasn't an expert of. One he'd never even heard of.
But it was not his place to question his superiors, so he said nothing. Besides, he had instantly excelled at every other game, so there was no reason for this one to be any different.
Other than that, he was sent from the airport with very little instruction. Find Yuugi Moutou and eliminate him. He was left to do it in his own way, at whatever rate he pleased. So he decided to start at the boys house, and then check the school if he wasn't there. Hopefully one of the two would provide some results, otherwise he would end up wandering around the city trying to find the kid. Which would be quite irritating.

((Let's make it so its at school again, simply so everyone will be able to interact well.))
It was hard to tell, but over the past week since his breakdown Yuugi seemed to have gotten better. Whether he had gotten a hold and moved past his grief, or just got better at hiding it was hard to tell.
Yuugi was a bit confused by the whole thing himself. It was as if somehow, that empty spot had filled itself. He still missed Atemu terribly, but he no longer felt that blatant whole in his very soul. It was... strange.... but also nice. Now he'd be able to move on, at least a little bit. And that helped. Yuugi glanced up from his work at the clock, as if he could make it speed up by will alone.
Today he planned to get together with all hsi friends and just enjoy himself for the first time since the incident.... and he was actually looking forward to it this time.
Still, however, the minutes seemed to tick by with painful slowness.

((Okay, time skip works for me. ^^)) Jounouchi watched the clock tick by at a painfully slow pace. He wasn't in the mood for school. He was too tired for school. Speaking of being tired, he caught his eyes drooping, quickly fixing them to "open" again so he wouldn't fall asleep. He had been so worked up on all that had happened and worrying about Yuugi that he hadn't gotten much sleep, and now that things seemed to finally be calming down he wanted to calm down too. Or at least do something not as boring as school so he could stay awake. Anzu on the other hand was sitting at her desk quietly, glancing around the room occasionally to see what her friends were doing. She was glad to see Yuugi looking better, though she didn't know what had happened to cause his sudden not-so-miserableness. The important thing though was that he was feeling better. She had to admit to herself, she was a little as well. Maybe seeing Yuugi not quite so sad had helped her in getting over Atem herself. Anzu sighed contently as she leaned over on her desk and began daydreaming.

Atemu was walking toward Yuugi's school feeling rather puzzled. Going to Yuugi's house had proven that the boy was not at home, but he had met with an older man there who had at the very least been shocked to see him.
Atemu?! What're you doing here? Is what the man had asked him as he walked through the door. He was unnerved by that statement. Was it possible that the Moutou's already knew he was coming somehow?
But that wasn't truly what bothered him. The man hadn't had the tone of someone speaking in fear, speaking to an assassin. He'd had the tone of a person speaking to a friend he had not seen in quite a while...
And why had he seemed so familiar?
Regardless of that, the man had not hesistated to tell him that Yuugi was still in school, which had worked out to his advantage. And now that he'd arrived at the building all he had to do was to find Yuugi.
Thankfully, ATZ had thought ahead and had fashioned him a school uniform identical to those of Domino High. So now he did not stick out like a sore thumb on the japanese streets, but he could also walk straight into Yuugi's school and wander the hallways without anyone questioning why he was there.
And it didn't take him long to find the boy. Three classrooms down in the first hallway that he'd entered Atemu saw the boy sitting at his desk. He was staring at the clock in desperation, clearly hoping to get out of class as soon as possibly.
But he'd be regretting that in a few moments when he actually did.

Ryou was staring out the window, completely disinterested in the topic being discussed. He wanted to go home, try to attempt to sleep, and fail, then drink hot chocolate and watch horror movies. Yup, that was a plan, a very good plan.
He glanced at Yugi, who seemed to be rather infatuated with the clock. Good, he wasn't the only one desperate to be out of here.
