He felt just better that Yusei knew that they had his number for emergencies. His gut just told him that there was more behind it.
"Thanks, Yusei-san will do. Hope you have a well rested night as well."
With that, both said their goodbye's and Yusei made his way back to his friends. Closing the door behind and letting out a sigh. This was just more complicated than before and that his sign glowed meant never something good. Something did happen and he will find it out. But for now, he had to get a good nights rest. It got late and he was feeling tired that the whole thing put a toll on him.

Dream sequence
It was strange as he was walking around a beach. Next to him were floating two people but their faces were a blur. One seemed like a woman the other person had a Kuribo brown haired shape but like the other person, his face was blurry as well. Not just that he couldn't understand what they were talking to him. It was as he would be deaf but that couldn't be because he heard the water from the sea. Maybe this was a memory? Who knew exactly but this wasn't making sense to him. When this would be one why doesn't he see their faces? Nothing made sense to him. He felt disappointed that he couldn't see their faces it made him feel incomplete. There was more he missed someone.
As he walked around he saw someone running up with him. The same with the other two ghosts he couldn't see his face, the same blurriness. But there was a little cat animal on the person's shoulder. It had a little round thingy on his tail. That animal was a darker violet and the round thingy on the tail was a kind of red colored. The person who was running up to him was wearing a swim short and a light blue jacket. He had turquoise spikey hair. His heart was fluttering as he saw the toned body who this person had. His cheeks got slightly pink and he was stunned. This person felt familiar but he just couldn't remember who this was. What made him perplexed was as Kuribo showed up and flying up to the little cat and they were playing. As he arrived in front of him he jumped on him and hugged him. That made him perplexed but it was weird he didn't mind it. He felt down with him on the sand with a thumping sound. Chuckling slightly at the antic, it was as he knew this person. Once again he couldn't hear what this person said and somehow his heart stung.....
_______________________________________________________________________________
With that, he woke up tears running down his cheeks. He knew them but he just couldn't remember their faces nor what their names were. One person, in particular, made his heart just stung. The male who hugged him was someone who he probably hold dearly or why else would he feel like this. It was as he would want to see him and talk to him. Maybe that was the person he missed. His mind was racing with questions. Question's he couldn't find answers maybe he could ask Yusei about that. Maybe he would know more about it. His tears were still running down his cheeks his heard was hurting so much at this moment.
"Kuri?"
That was bringing him out of his thoughts as he felt that present again of his full friend. A little sad smile as he looked at Kuribo.
"I...had a dream. I don't know who that person was with turquoise hair but I want to see him so badly..."
He could see Kuribo's eyes widening as he was flapping nervously around him. His eyes showed once more the worried expression of that cute full ball.
//I did it again...I made him worried about me great....//
"Kuri! Kuri!"
"Huh sorry spaced out I just don't know what I should think about that dream...."
A sigh escaped out of his mouth as he was just so confused about everything. His memories still weren't there. Maybe that was just a dream but why did it felt so real?
"I just want to know who they were ya know?"
Looking now hopeful at the fluff ball in hope that he could help him. He saw Kuribo nodding and flapping widely around. It was as would he try to tell him something.
"Kuri!Kuri!"
Jaden blinked a few times as he heard him say that and tilted his head. It wasn't making sense to him that he was trying to warn him about something.
"I don't know what you mean Kuribo. Do you know what happened to me?"
With that, he saw Kuribo stopping flapping around nervously and looking straight to him with worried eyes and slowly shaking his head.
"I see...."
There was a pause as he was trying to sort his thoughts. Maybe he didn't know what happened with his memory. Maybe Kuribo knew how he got here so he changed his question too...
"Do you know how I got here at least?"
With that Kuribo was instantly nodding fastly. It was as he was trying to tell him something and he could guess that this person was after him.
"Kuri!"
"Gah to much complicated to me! I just can't believe that someone would go that far! I must probably make that person extremely angry!"
This could probably end badly as long as he couldn't remember who he was. Like yes, he knew now his name but he just couldn't figure out for what reason he was here. His gut feeling told me that there is something big behind it. It frustrated him badly that he didn't have his memory nor did he knew how to get them back.
"Kuri...kuri!"
"I will try to be careful but I have no idea why you're so worried ya know."
After saying this Kuribo was flapping happily around and chirping as well. Now that he noticed it he wasn't crying anymore which made him chuckling softly. Jaden realized that the little cute fluff ball wanted to make him get on different thoughts. Which he managed and for that he was grateful.
_______________________________________________________________________________
The evening was exhausted for Yusei his friends were bugging him about Jaden. Jack was making him annoyed at asking him when he could duel Jaden. It drove himself insane. Lucky Crow was a bit more discrete about wanting to have a duel with Jaden. He knew that right now it wouldn't really help much bugging him about that nor would he want to. After all, he knew that the poor guy had amnesia. But he had an idea how he could help Jaden maybe a duel wouldn't be that bad when he is healed. After all, it helped him when he had amnesia. So maybe it helped Jaden as well.
A yawn escaped out of his mouth as he was half awake sipping on the instant coffee they had at home. He knew that today will be a long day but he hoped Jaden felt a bit better. That is all that he hoped as he still was worried about his friend. Maybe he worried too much but that's how he is. Yusei would probably give his life away for his friends and Jaden wasn't an exception. His worries just won't get away as he felt that there was more behind Jaden's amnesia after all Yubel still hasn't shown herself. It wasn't making sense to him there must be more about it. Not to mention that he helped him to get his stardust dragon back. Now that he thought about it wasn't there two other cards? What did Jaden call them again? Rainbow dragon and the other one was cyber end dragon he thought. He really hoped that he managed to get these cards back to the person's they belonged too.
He wasn't exactly alone in his home as he lived with Jack and Crow.
(You must know that they are childhood friends with Yusei and now they live here together in the same apartment. Thought I mention this for the people who don't know or have forgotten about that ;D)
Lucky or maybe not so lucky he overslept but that wasn't really that bad as his sleep rhythm is irregular. When he works on something he often forgets to eat, drink and sleep so it happened often that he works the whole day until almost after midnight. He knew it wasn't healthy but he couldn't change that habit not to mention they just feed themselves with Coup Ramen. It wasn't that healthy but it was cheaper than real food.
They really should change what they eat not just for themselves but more for Jaden. He was sure that he would live with them after he got out of the hospital and until everything gets resolved but who knows for how long he will stay here in the future. Not to mention they should have enough money to get real food.
"Yo Yusei."
A sleepy voice called out to him which made him get back to reality. As he looked at the person who called him he noticed that it was Crow. This made him realize that he wasn't the only person who hasn't slept well. He saw the bags under Crow's eyes and probably he himself has them as well.
"Mornin' seems like I am not the only one who couldn't sleep well."
He mused as he said that, took another sip of his coffee as he looked at him with a little smile.
"Yeah, I just...had difficulties to sleep. It just bugged me too much that the Jaden Yuki got injured. Not to mention he got here in this timeline just after everything calmed down with that Paradox incident. This is too much of a coincidence that he would end here don't ya think?"
Hearing that made him surprised as it seemed he wasn't the only person who had that thought. That Crow thought that too made him think that there was someone who wanted him out of their way.
"Yeah, I agree on that not to mention our birthmarks glowed. This was a sign and not a good one. Something tells me a storm is brewing a big one. I hope we can get Jaden remembering who is. There is more..."
He stopped for a second as he folded his arms together and a grim yet confused expression showed on his face.
"Why isn't Yubel showing?"
Crow's eyes widen as he looked at him with a surprised expression.
"Hold up you saw Yubel? Like when did you see her and how can you see her?"
He blinked a few times as he forgot to mention it to them. Since that paradox incident, he managed to see duel monsters.
"Oh god sorry, I forgot to mention that I kind off can see duel monsters. Since that paradox incident, I can see them. I saw her the last time then."
Normally he would laugh at the expression Crow showed him but right now he was occupied at thinking about the reason she didn't show yet up.
"Damn Yusei you should have told us. Oh well, you can tell the others later on but right now we have to think about how we help Yusei."
Giving him a little nod and his expression changed into a little exiting grin as he said...
"I was thinking about dueling when he is better. You remember how I told you guys that I forgot my memory. Leo helped me with that duel so I thought maybe it works to him too."
Shrugging slightly as he said that and drinking the last coffee and finishing it.
"Yeah is a try worth it so let's hope that this will work."
With that, both were beginning to talk about different stuff mostly about duel monsters and D-wheels or Jaden. Until the others came and they talked about the plan and about letting him visiting Jaden that they could finally get to know him with a few rules. Yusei didn't want to stress him too much but it was probably a good decision to let his friends getting to know him as well. Maybe they can help him to feel more welcomed and making his mood go better.
