Sekai, rushing towards him in the halls, was the last thing the duelist expected. Mixed impulses raced through his brain. Was she running from something? Had she brought enemies with her? But no - it didn't look like anything was chasing her. But he could see bloodstains on her clothes... was she coming to kill him? Even in his addled state, Jonouchi's mind tried to banish the thought. It was ridiculous. Sekai was a schoolgirl. She wasn't a monster, a phantom, or anything come to kill him. Whatever the explanation for the blood, there was a good one. Sekai was friendly, she was safe. Sekai was someone he could trust.

... was she someone he could trust? Really? He didn't have the answer, and he didn't have the time to find one. She was right there.

His mind was screaming not to trust her, that she was hiding some terrible secret, but since when was he one to listen to logic? Jonouchi stuck his knife back into his pocket and called out to the schoolgirl, placing his faith in her for the time being. "Sekai! Slow down? Is there something behind you? I'll take care of it! Just get behind me and I'll kick its ass!"
