------------------------------------------

Seto stared transfixed at the monitor where windows of different documents were on display. He had hacked into profiles of the Motou's records searching around Yugi's medical records into finding a clue to what Yugi was experiencing at the moment. He had found that Yugi had lived with his parents in China but then moved to Japan with his grandfather however it told nothing of whatever was ailing Yugi. The answers eluded him and he was frustrated by the information exiting each document until he came across one particular site. It was a picture of a plane crash. He was confused on why such a document came up and what it had to do with Yugi Motou. "What happened here?" he mused as the computer spoke. (A/N: The computer is similar to the one where he used to hack into Pegasus Duellist Kingdom files and downloaded a virus into the BEWD)

"The 747 plane from Hong Kong to Egypt crashed 10 years ago in the Mediterranean Sea. Experts were baffled by the condition as the body of the plane was ripped apart by the wings though there was no sign of an explosion. There were no survivors"

"What does this have to do with Yugi Motou?" Seto questioned. He was now truly confused.

"How should I know? Maybe there's a glitch in the search engine…" the computer suggested but Seto wasn't buying it.

"Hmm… hack into the profiles. I want to know every single person that was on that plane" The computer done so and he scrolled down the list until he came to a name. Motou.

"Lily Motou, Alan Motou and…" Seto's eyes widened at the screen. There was the passport picture of a chibi Yugi who smiled brightly with brilliant amethyst eyes and a flaring mane of gold, black and crimson. The bangs hung cutely around his face. His name clearly printed in capital letters. "I thought you said that there were no survivors…"

"None that were recorded. No one could tell considering that most of the bodies were all badly mutilated when they were found" the computer said

"Was Solomon Motou around in Egypt at this time?"

"Solomon Motou had set up the Turtle Game Shop in Domino City, Japan…" the computer answered.

"So… Yugi had survived a plane crash and wondered alone in the desert with no one that he knows, no authorities had been contacted, yet he manages to get to Japan from Egypt? How is this possible? He was just a six year old kid!"

"Perhaps the Yugi you know isn't the real Yugi?" the computer suggested. Seto thought that to be the most logical explanation but he wasn't buying it.

"What about his father?"

"Alan Motou. Age: 28. Height: 5ft 6. Occupation: Archaeologist. Following his father, Solomon Motou's footsteps, he had been investigating the tombs of ancient Egypt, his recent discoveries were of a tomb of an Egyptian queen. Current Status: Deceased." the computer stated showing documents of Mr Motou's work including a photo of the tomb. Seto blinked before he went to ask another question.

"Was there any history of illness with symptoms of seizures and bleeding from the eyes?"

"I'll search" the computer said before it was silent. "No records however there are reports of it in Mrs Motou's profile" Seto sat up with renewed interest. He was finally getting somewhere. The computer downloaded the medical history. He stared at a family tree that dated back for the past 300 years. "The highlighted names above are people that have suffered similar symptoms to that of what you've described in Yugi Motou"

"I guess this is a family heritage from his mother's side"

"You should also note that all those that have suffered these symptoms were either found dead or missing" the computer added. The Seto leaned back.

"Tell me more about Mrs Motou…" he said

"Lily Motou. Age: 28. Height 5ft 3. Occupation: Traditional Chinese doctor and herbologist. Maiden Name: Xian. Has a history of noble heritage" the computer relayed as it showed on the screen of the family crest. "Current status: Deceased" Seto eyes widened at the family crest.

"Go back to the documents of the Egyptian tomb investigation and place it in parallel with current document" the computer brought the picture of the Egyptian tomb and Seto shifted his glance from the family crest and the centrepiece of the tomb. The intricate design of the dragon and phoenix entwined with each other were exactly the same.

A sudden breeze danced with the curtains of Seto's room, which died down just as mysteriously. In a dark corner the shadows stirred and then writhed before it left the dark corner and crept silently like a ghost towards Seto and with a sleek movement the shadow slipped and merged with the shadow Seto cast upon the floor. With that a chill seemed to run down Seto's spine. He shuddered before looking behind him with awareness of another presence nearby, the window was open, he shook his head annoyed at his paranoia and went to close the window. Yet the chill didn't seem to go away and he rubbed his arms to keep warm. He was going to enquire more about Mrs Motou when he heard a door slam. He rushed out seeing his little brother running out of the mansion with tears in his eyes. Seto went dashed after him.

"Mokuba what's wrong!?!?!?"

"I-I heard on the n-news that t-the Game Shop's been ransacked" Mokuba managed to choke out. Mokuba had hung out with Yugi and his grandfather whenever Seto was away on his business trips. He had had many of them lately and was away for weeks and sometimes months so Mokuba was quite often alone. The bond of friendship Mokuba had with Yugi and Solomon had grown quite considerably. So much so that Mokuba had regarded Yugi as another brother and Solomon as his own grandfather. "I gotta go see if Yugi and Grandpa are ok!!!" he yelled before he ripped away from Seto and out of the door. Seto ran after him neglecting the research he was doing on the computer. Seto called for his limousine and the two brothers drove to the Game Shop.

------------------------------------------

Yami sat on the sidewalk looking distant with Ryou and Tristan sitting by his side giving as much comfort as possible whilst Joey and Bakura was staying calm and explaining the situation to the police. A blanket was wrapped around him as he had been sitting in the rain with Solomon's body in his arms for quite a while. A limousine stopped just outside as the younger of the two Kaiba brothers leapt out. He raced to the scene.

"Yami!!! I just heard!!!!" he cried as he confronted the ex-pharaoh. His two companions stared at the raven-headed boy with solemn faces. "Is Yugi and Grandpa ok?" he whispered dreading the answer. Tristan and Ryou looked away not daring to tell him whilst Yami didn't seem to hear him at all. "Please… say something…" Mokuba whispered.

"Yugi's been kidnapped" a voice decided to explain. Mokuba turned to the Joey who had left Bakura to talk with the police. "And grandpa's…" his voice faltered. Mokuba's eyes widened as Seto was by his side.

"Grandpa's what…?" Mokuba barely whispered when he saw the Grandpa's body on a stretcher as the police zipped a black body back sealing the old man inside. Mokuba gasped a hand covered his mouth in an attempt not to scream. He was about to fall back if Seto had not held onto him. Mokuba turned to bury his face in Seto's stomach sobbing uncontrollably. Mokuba turned to face Yami pointing at him accusingly.

"YOU WERE SUPPOSE TO PROTECT THEM!!!! WHY DID YOU LET THIS HAPPEN!?!?!?" he screamed at the ex-pharaoh. "WHY!?!?!? WHY!?!?!?!?" Mokuba tried to charge at him if Seto had not held him back whilst Yami just didn't hear him. (Sam: Everyone seems to blame Yami don't they? I know… I'm cruel) Joey knelt down to confront Mokuba who was in tears.

"Mokuba look at me" he said sternly. "Kid… Yami's already taken a big blow about this… Right now Yugi might still be alive and we need ta find him rather point fingers at each other" Mokuba stared at Joey the tears still running down his face, Joey softened and he spoke a more gently. "Will you help us out, huh? It would be what gramps… would want us to do…" The fierce hatred that Mokuba had lashed out died with the comfort of Joey's words and Mokuba wrapped his arms sobbing quietly into Joey' shoulder.

----------------------------------------------

In the darkness of cold slab floors, Gabriel waited. The two men appeared with an unconscious Yugi in their arms. Gabriel let a smirk come to his lips as he gazed upon the surroundings.

"I must say… this is a nice scene you've set up here" he remarked towards a figure as he scanned the area of the dungeon. A man in rags sat in one of the prison cells, his rags that had once been the vibrant fabrics of a aristocratic red suit that had been shredded with time. Long, mangled, silver tresses that had once hung so proudly in their sleek beauty now hung over his shadowed face as mould clung to the cold, damp walls like leeches accompanied with the sickening smell of pus infected wounds upon the man's body. He had clearly been tortured and the slashes from a whip were exposed to the dirt and bugs. The man lifted a dispirited face to the little light there was in the dungeon. An eye stared at his captor whilst the hair veiled his other. Pegasus watched silently of the events as he sat in his chains in the dungeon. He watched as Gabriel gathered the small bundle into his arms from the men who started to distort, their skins splitting as if something inside them were trying to burst out. As the skins of the human shell were shed, it revealed two monsters that were under Gabriel's command. "Well done Aquan and Pyro, unlike some of my other warriors, you never fail me…"

"We are forever your loyal servants milord…" Pyro said. Gabriel smirked and lay the angel upon a silk bed, which had mysteriously manifested within the dungeon chambers. The silky ebony, crimson and golden hair sprawled against the pillows whilst Gabriel gazed upon the porcelain face with a tender passion. He splayed long slender fingers shadowing over Yugi's face closing his unnatural blue eyes as a light started to emanate in the space between them and he felt the immense flow of Yugi's own powerful energy. Gabriel smiled in bliss from the pure energy and proceeded in strengthening the bond between them. He gazed upon the flawless face, lips slightly parted as if inviting him. As if complying Gabriel brushed Yugi's lips with his own before planting another more firmly before sliding his tongue to explore the crevices. It was at that point that Yugi slowly regained consciousness. Disorientated he couldn't help but let Gabriel overwhelm him with kisses whilst the slender hands stroked at his soft petite ones. Gabriel stopped kissing to gaze at the beautiful yet confused amethyst eyes. A passionate smile came to his lips as he drew the little one closer with a firm but gentle embrace as if he was a valuable but fragile glass. He went to kiss Yugi again.

BANG

A burst of energy flung him against a wall. Staggering to his feet Gabriel glared at the angel with intense anger gritting his teeth with frustration. Yugi stared back with his wide amethyst eyes in a childlike gaze looking up at the tall demon. He cocked his head blinking cutely whilst a white-hot light that was surrounding his petite body powered down. The glare from Gabriel turned into and impressed smirk. Yugi smiled back politely before he yawned and curled into a ball on the bed and drifted to sleep. "I`ve always underestimated you Yugi but know this… I'll have claim on you real soon," he said as he swiftly glided out of the dungeon.

Pegasus was astounded by the events that had taken place. Even having lost the Millennium Eye he could still sense the huge amount of power the boy possessed. `Hmm… the little one sure has developed some sort of powerful magic yet the magic… feels different' He watched the angel sleep analysing him carefully and trying to figure out what kind of power the boy possessed when the amethyst eyes snapped open and stared back at him.

----------------------------------------

With the Kaiba brothers joining them Joey and his friends gathered together at Ryou's house to figure out a plan to save Yugi.

"How are we supposed to save him. We don't even know where he is!" Tristan cried as the discussion turned into absolute chaos. Yami in the meant time had not been able to say a word since Solomon's death. Tenshi snuggled in his lap as if knowing that she could provide at least a bit of comfort to his loss. The boys continued to argue and failed to notice that Yami had already gone to his room. Sitting in the silence he couldn't see or hear anything, just the memory of the nightmare he had had the previous night and the realisation that it was coming true.

******FLASHBACK*****

A single tear ran down Yugi's face as he sat there… alone at Solomon's grave. Yami couldn't bear this and tried desperately to get to him despite the wave of the crowd of people pushing him back distancing him further away from the little one… he screamed his name as he tried push through the wall…

*****END FLASHBACK****

"Yami" a voice whispered in his mind. Yami was startled as he sat up looking around. He could clearly hear that Joey and Seto were still arguing but a voice had called to him. Before he knew it he had found himself inside his own soul room. He hadn't been here for a long time he had to admit but why would he come back here?

"You're here so we can talk alone" the voice answered his question as he turned to see. There in front of him was a ghostly figure of an old man with brilliant and wise eyes staring back at him with kindness and understanding.

"Grandpa?" was all he could utter as he stared wondering if he was hallucinating. The ghostly figure of Solomon smiled.

"Yes it's me and yes I am dead" he whispered.

"But… how…"

"Difficult to describe but I guess I've become a sort of guardian… like you" Solomon shrugged as he explained the best he could. Yami couldn't do anything but choke…

"I'm not a guardian… if I were I wouldn't… have…"

"Let this happen?" Solomon finished whilst shaking his head proudly. "I knew that I had to go around about this time Yami. You wouldn't be able to prevent it no matter what you did" Yami let a small smile appear on his lips. "But now Yugi needs your help. I know that the ones that took him aren't going to harm him yet… their not powerful enough to break him… but it'll only be a matter of time"

"If only he had the Millennium Puzzle then perhaps I could track him down…" Yami said.

"From what his parents has told me you can still get through to him with a little help."

"His parents?" Yami asked incredulously. Solomon nodded. "You never told me about his parents"

"Well… you never asked"

"What are you saying?" Yami was now confused.

"Yugi's… not the average kid you think he is… He has been through many other events before he met you"

"Yugi's been keeping secrets from me?" Yami couldn't believe it. Yugi told him everything and was literally an open book to him. Well, that was what he had thought.

"Believe me Yami… the Motou family has as many mysterious secrets as the pyramids of Egypt themselves" Solomon replied.

**************FLASHBACK***********

{My son Alan Motou met a girl from the Mainland of China}

Alan Motou arrived wrapping his arm around Lily, his fiancée. They were planning to meet Alan's father.

{I knew from the moment I saw her that she was… different… gifted or cursed perhaps? Either way they loved each other}

Solomon was troubled by this girl called Lily. He knew that she loved his son dearly but he also knew that she had great powers.

"Father?" Solomon looked up as his son stared at him with concern. "What's wrong?" Solomon stared deeply into his son's eyes.

"Nothing…"

"That doesn't sound like nothing father… Come on…" Alan sat next to him whilst Solomon sighed.

"I know you have the right to make your own choices Alan but… I just get the feeling that this choice will be… perilous" Alan blinked then smiled but let his father continue. "I know, I know… I must be an senile old fool"

"No father…" Alan said. "I understand what you mean. Lily's not like any normal girl and I know of the… possible consequences if I go on but… I'm willing to go through with it…" Solomon stared upon the kind and sincere eyes and father and son embraced. The wedding was a grand one and Solomon waved to them goodbye with a heavy heart as his son and daughter-in-law left.

{They had Yugi a year later}

Solomon waited anxiously as Alan drove to the hospital to meet his grandson. He hurried to the ward where Lily lay with a tiny bundle in her arms. He stared as the little one cracked open two huge amethyst eyes blinking at him with wonder.

"My grandson?" Solomon's eyes sparkled with happiness at the baby boy. He turned to his daughter-in-law. "Can I?" Lily nodded as she eased the child in his arms. Yugi gurgled incoherently as Solomon cradled him in his arms. A huge toothless grin appeared on the baby's face as he was rocked gently. Solomon chuckled as he tickled the laughing child when Yugi took hold of one stubby finger with both tiny hands. With that moment Solomon stared deep into the huge eyes with awe. Yugi smiled brightly. A smile that warmed him. A smile that Solomon that he would take to his heart and treasure the memory of it forever. Over the years Yugi came from a baby in a cradle to a small but bright young boy brimming with energy. Solomon visited the family many times through the years and the family lived happily. Chibi Yugi cuddled close his grandfather as they watched the sunset in the distance.

{Yugi had inherited the gift from his mother and… one day my fears for Alan and Lily were clarified. On Yugi's 6th birthday they were planning to go on a trip to Egypt. That was the last time I ever saw Alan and Lily alive}

*********END FLASHBACK*******

"Their plane crashed on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea and I was asked to identify the bodies. The next few months I've experienced something that was worse than death could ever be" Solomon said, as he closed his eyes painfully then smiled. "I guess some blessed God took pity on me and sent me a miracle…" Yami blinked with confusion. "I still remember that day, my little grandson came in to the shop, exhausted, starved and in rags but he kept going, holding his mother's locket not giving up until the necklace was in my hands"

"How did he manage to get back here all the way from Egypt?" Yami mused.

"I was wondering that too but I never asked him…" Grandpa replied. "Yugi's a miracle Yami and I'd gladly give this old life up again for him to be safe"

"What can I do?"

"There will be someone to guide you" Solomon answered.

"Who?"

"Someone close" was the answer as Solomon disappeared and Yami found himself in Ryou's guestroom with a sleeping Tenshi on his lap.

-------------------------------------------------

"Pegasus?"

"Hello Yugi-boy…" Pegasus whispered.

"What happened to you?" Pegasus let out a small chuckle.

"I'm guessing it's a punishment… for what I did" Yugi mused of what he meant.

"You only did it for your wife…" Pegasus smirked as he stared at Yugi. "I know it wasn't the best idea in the world but it's understandable to miss someone you care about"

"Thank you… but nevertheless I've lost everything" he replied. Yugi smiled.

"Which means you have so much to gain. You just need to keep going. That's what Cecilia would want you to do"

"Anyway what does that demon want with you?" Pegasus started.

"It's not really a good time to talk about that now" Yugi replied as he heard the doors swing open. Lich and Argoth appeared carrying food and lay it down before leaving. "We've got to get out of here"

--------------------------------------

*****Water was all that was around him and he couldn't keep afloat. Struggling hard the water kept flooding into his lungs choking him from the inside. He cried for help as the fear coursed through his veins when supple and soft hands held him in a gentle embrace and slowly he was safely out of the dangers of the water and on the warm, solid ground. The sun shone kindly down on him warming his cold body. The soft hands stroked his face and kept him warm. He smiled blissfully ever so wishing to see the face that the hands belonged to but he was too tired and everything became dark. ******

Seto woke up with a start as he sat up from the couch in Ryou's living room musing over the dream. He had had this same dream many times throughout his life but recently they had become more frequent ever since he got more involved with Yugi and his friends. (A/N: Hence why his so curious about Yugi's past) He turned from his thoughts and gazed at the others lounging about.

Yami shifted a little and cracked his eyes open from the light sleep noticing a little kitten staring at him. Yami looked outside at the still night, which seemed to be perfectly peaceful despite the chaos of the day.

"You want to go out don't you?" he said.

"Meuh?" Tenshi answered cocking her head. He smiled as he picked Tenshi up to go to the room and found the others asleep after a long and fruitless argument. Mokuba had inadvertently leaned onto Joey's shoulder. Yami then noticed that Seto had come in from the bathroom who nodded to him and stared at his little brother.

"Meuh…" Tenshi squeaked before leaping out of Yami's arms and into the circle where the group were trying to figure where Yugi could have been taken. Yami panicked at what she did next.

"Tenshi no!" he rasped. Tenshi leapt onto the sleeping figures at a time jerking each of them from sleep. They all groaned and muttered curses at the kitten.

"Can't you control that feline of yours!" Bakura yelled. At that Tenshi hissed then scratched at the door wailing to be let out. Yami opened the door and watched her leave into the darkness of the night.

"Yami… we're out of ideas. If anybody can find Yugi you can." Joey asked as he got up as Yami turned back to the group. Tenshi stopped to meow at Yami. Yami whipped back round and stared confused at the kitten. It wasn't unusual for cats to go out on a prowl at night but Tenshi appeared to be indicating for him to follow her. "There will be someone to guide you… Someone close…"

"Tenshi…" Yami whispered as he ran after the little kitten.

"Hey Yami wait up!" Ryou yelled after him. At that the group of boys ran across the deserted streets of Domino City at the dead of night. The full moon glowed like a beacon illuminating the streets allowing the boys to see where they were going. Tenshi stopped finally at a building.

"The museum?" Yami asked. The others had caught up with him.

"Yami, why d'you run out like that?" Joey asked as Yami went to open the door.

"Locked"

"Meuh…" Tenshi squeaked again, her eyes emanating a green glow from her eyes as the door unlocked itself and opened.

"How d'you do that?" Tristan yelped with surprise.

"It's hard to explain but Grandpa came to me…"

"Grandpa!?" the others crowed in unison.

"I think the shock of Grandpa's death has gotten to you…" Seto said.

"It's true!!!" Yami cried

"I believe him…" Joey argued back. The others looked at him as if he was insane. "Hey if the albino muskrat (A/N: Referring to the episode when Bakura sealed Yugi and Co.'s souls in their favourite cards) here can make me six inches tall and wearing a dress, then seeing ghosts ain't nothing out of the ordinary." Yami smiled at the Joey and the way he still kept his spirits up despite any problem they faced. "So what did Gramps tell ya Yami?"

"He told me that someone was going to help us find Yugi" he answered as he stared down at the kitten. "I think that Tenshi was who he meant"

"Ok…" Tristan mused. "I just hope that following a cat doesn't end up being wild goose chase" Tenshi went in as Yami and the gang followed. The cold marble cavern filled with ancient artefacts of old enclosed around them like shadows as they walked down a dark corridor. A glow from a dark room of the museum guided their way. The eerie silence unnerved Mokuba as he held on closer to Joey who was closest to him.

Unbeknownst to the others Seto had headed off to a different room when he noticed another glow in the room.

Seto approached a glow against the dark room among one particular display. It was a staff of gold that had encased a huge leaf-shaped crystal jewel. The jewel glowed a fluorescent green that seemed to enrapture Seto as he stared deep inside, with that the jewel glowed brighter strengthening the shadow cast upon the floor. The shadow twisted and turned distorting into a serpentine shape then disappeared sliding into Seto's feet as if trying to enter Seto himself. At that moment Seto's eyes became heavy, he swayed a little bit before the eyes flew open with the same fluorescence of the jewel. A deep chuckle sinister chuckle echoed within him as he stared wide-eyed with the unnatural fluorescent green rather than the usual cobalt blue.

Without warning Bakura's ring started to glow and a shadowy figure leapt out from the dark startling the group. A war cry came and knocked down Yami. The two struggled for a bit when the lights flew on. Tanned arms with gold bands flailed as Yami flipped the attacker on his back. He stood back in surprise staring at lavender eyes and platinum streaks of hair.

"Malik?"

"Yami? What the hell are you doing sneaking around here?" Malik cried in irritation as he got up and brushed himself off.

"He's come for our help little brother" (A/N: Malik is younger isn't he?) a voice answered and Isis appeared, her long black and sleek hair went pass the shoulders of her dress.

"Meuh…" Tenshi cried catching Isis's attention. They watched as Tenshi proceeded in leading the group to the specific room. She leapt towards the centrepiece. A sword. She pawed at the glass indicating for Yami to take the sword. Isis smiled and turned off the security alarm for it. She removed the sword and gave it to Yami. As soon as he touched it a shiver ran through his body as a warm energy coursed his veins. With a flash came a vision in his mind. The covered their eyes from the blinding light. He seemed to fly overhead towards an island as if he was seeing through the eyes of a bird. There before him was an island. An island he recognised. "Duellist Kingdom?" he mused as he was guided closer. Flying past the guards then down. There in the dungeons sat Yugi surrounded by runes containing him to where he was. His eyes were closed in peaceful meditation. Yami looked around him noticing another inside the dungeon with his hikari.

"Pegasus's here too…" Yami said to no one in particular. He turned back to Yugi who had slowly opened his eyes. He stared a little longer at the little one who smiled. A smile that would warm Yami's heart no matter how depressed he was. He approached him closer to Yugi who touched his face.

"Yami…" Yugi whispered.

"I'll come back and I'll get you out of here aibou…" Yami reassured. Yugi hugged him when a door was flung open and another silver headed man that surpassed the sleekness of Pegasus's tresses and unnatural blue eyes that seemed colder than Seto's cobalt ones. Yami's eyes widened as he recognised the man in his dream. Gabriel approached Yugi with a lustful smile carved across his face and Yami immediately glared at him with intense hate. Gabriel turned his gaze from Yugi to him and the smirk turned into a growl as a ball of black fire materialised and struck Yami. He was thrown back and slammed against the marble wall of the museum.

--------------------------------------

Gabriel glared at the mutilated corpse of a tiny sparrow, the messenger and Yami's eyes, it's body had been singed whilst it's head that had been violently twisted at an angle where the impact had fractured the skull, at the same time the neck had snapped. He then turned his gaze to Yugi who stared back with his innocent eyes. Gabriel appeared to be emotionless yet there was such a passion deep inside. He turned away shutting the door to the dungeon.

"What's wrong master?" Gabriel turned to Lich.

"A pest and I get the feeling that there will be more of them" Gabriel explained. "Send some Ghouls to hunt down the nest before they start infesting the castle" With that Lich left.

-------------------------------------

"Yami!!!" his friends cried. He got up shaking his head.

"Man are you alright?" Joey asked worried.

"Duellist Kingdom. Yugi's at Duellist Kingdom…" Yami whispered as he rubbed his head from the impact.

"Duellist Kingdom are you sure?" Bakura asked.

"Positive…"

"Seto has a private helicopter we can get you there," Mokuba said. Yami smiled as he remembered how Seto arrived to Duellist Kingdom last time.

"Alright let's go!" Joey yelled as the group ran out of the museum. Without warning they had been thrown back by an invisible force of some kind. Many figures stood in the shadows of the marble caverns of the museum. Orbs of red appeared in the darkness, scattered in pairs, staring at the group, surrounding them where no escape was possible. Among the red orbs two green fluorescent orbs pierced through the dark and slowly a glimmer of light started to kindle revealing the faces that the eyes belonged to. Yami gasped as Seto stood behind him an army but not just any army. It was an army summoned from ancient times. The soldiers stood in rows each with blood red pupil-less eyes. Each dressed in black metal of armour. But what was most frightening were the faces themselves. The soldier's skin were scales. Reptilian scales with forked tongues lashing out past poisonous fangs hungering for the kill. The soldiers however would not attack without their leader's command. Seto never said a word, lips slightly apart, which then curved into a sinister smile as a voice chuckled within him in a deep sound that Seto never possessed.

"Kill them…"

------------------------------------------

Sam: Cliffy!!!!! MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE BEING EVIL!!!!!!!!

Seto: Why do I have to be the evil dude?

Sam: Cos I said so… *Seto pouts*

Yami: Well you do suit the part…

Mokuba: Besides you were just possessed by an evil entity… *covers his mouth realising what he just said* Oops…

Joey: Don't worry I think the readers caught on that already… I hope… So that means there's `two' people needin' rescuin'?
