"This is awful." said Tea as she and the others were cut off from helping Yugi and the spirit defeat Pegasus. "When that bubble first appeared, even though I couldn't see Yugi, I could still somehow sense him."

"Weird, huh?" asked Paige.

"Yeah! But now...." said Tea.

"I know." said Joey. "It's like we've been cut off from him."

"Or maybe...maybe he's cut off from us!" said Tristan.

"That Bakudan Detonator Pegasus set is due to set off in two turns." thought Yami as he tries to come up with a plan on his own while Pegasus chuckles. "But with Yugi gone from this world, he can no longer help me keep Pegasus from reading minds."

"Yugi is still with you." Grandpa said to Yami.

"Huh?"

Appearing before him with Yugi on the floor, Grandpa looked at Yami. "You must be..." Yami started to ask.

"Yugi's and Paige's grandpa." said Grandpa. "And, believe me, his heart is still in this."

"But...but how can that be?" asked Yami. "I thought he was...."

"You thought only what your eyes showed you." Grandpa tells him. "The unshakable devotion of Yugi's friends and sister keeps his spirit alive."

"His friends? Paige?" asked Yami as Grandpa was pulled away while images of Tea, Paige, Joey and Tristan came to his mind. "Of course. They havent given up on him."

"There's got to be something we can do." said Tea. "We can't lose him."

"Like what, Tea?" asked Paige. "We physically can't get in there because we'll either go to the other side of the arena or automatically come back here."

"Hey! I've got an idea." said Tea.

"Huh?" said Paige and the boys.

"Yugi reached out to us, so we try reaching out to him in the same way." Tea suggested.

"Huh?" said Joey and Tristan.

"I like it." said Paige.

"Remember the friendship pact we made?" Tea asked.

"Yeah!" said Tristan, remembering that Tea drew a smiley face on their hands.

"I sure do." said Joey.

"We said we'd always be there for each other." said Tristan.

"Right." said Tea as Paige nodded. "Well, if we concentrate our energies and try to reach him with all our might..."

"Then maybe our bond of friendship can get through to him in the Shadow Realm." said Joey. "Let's give it a try."

"Let's do it." said Paige.

"Ok, together now!" said Tea as they put their hands in and glared at the Shadow Realm. "Think hard! We can do this. I know we can."

"Come on, Yuge!" said Tristan.

"All of us are here for ya!" said Joey.

"Yugi!" said Paige.

"Yugi, we believe in you." said Tea. "And even though we might not be able to see just what's going on in there, we'll help you stop Pegasus' cheating and get you back here safely."

Yami gasps at Tea's declaration. "Here's my move!" he said, drawing his next card. "Hmm."

"Then let's take a look." said Pegasus, chuckling as he used the power of the Millenium Eye. "Ah! Trying to conceal your card, eh? Fool, there's nothing you can hide from me since you lost your mind-shuffling partner." He then sees Paige and the others quickly appear on the card, holding Yugi with the youngest glaring at him.
