I was counting down minutes.
I was wishin' on the stars.
I was prayin' for a sign,
And tryin' to beat the odds.
I was dreamin' of you,
Love before I saw your face.
And there you were,
Waitin' for that day.
Then you reached through the hurricane,
When you baby you called my name.
You broke through the storm,
And you turned back the night.
Baby you are the fire,
Burnin' the midnight sky,
And your love,
Keeps taking me higher.
Just when all hope zas gone,
Where the hero belongs...
There you were.

Pernia awoke to find herself in a hospital bed, she sat up slowly and looked around the stark white room. Her eyes fell on a sleeping Kaiba and then she saw her mother's friend sitting in a chair by the window as sunlight flittered in.
"Pegasus," she said slowly.
"Ah," Said Pegasus closing the book. "You're awake, good."
"What happened? How did I get here? How long have I been asleep?"
"You don't remember do you?" asked Pegasus touching her cheek tenderly.
"No," said Pernia shaking her head. "The last thing I remember is this man named Noah and this woman, Nikushimi, leaning over me."
"My dear girl," said Pegasus gently. "You were nearly killed to night had Kaiba not saved you and you have been asleep for two days."
"Seto-san saved me?" asked Pernia softly her light blue eyes landing on the sleeping Seto. "Why?"
"It would seem he actually does love you," said Pegasus.
"But that doesn't make any sense," said Pernia looking down at her hands which were in her lap, before looking back up at Pegasus. "Before I was kidnapped he told me he never wanted to see me again."
"Men are allowed to change their minds," said Pegasus. "Especially when they have younger brothers to talk some sense into them."
Pernia sighed and stared down at her hands again.

Must have broken into heaven,
Just to roll back the douds.
Were you on a mission.
Were tou seekin me out.
Was I that one in amillion.
Was I that one sacred kiss,
That you couldn't chance,
You just couldn't miss.
thenYou whisperes through the silent tears,
When you swept away all my fears.
You broke through the storm,
And you turned back the night.
Baby you are the fire,
Burnin' the midnight sky,
And your love,
Keeps taking me higher.
Just when all hope zas gone,
Where the hero belongs...
There you were.

"You do still love him don't you?" asked Pegasus softly.
"Yes,'" said Pernia softly not looking up at him. "I do still love him."
"Then why do you seem so hesitant to accept the fact that Kaiba saved you?"
"Because," said Pernia looking out the window. "I don't think he loves me."
"If he didn't love you then he wouldn't have saved you," said Pegasus softly.
"I don't know why he saved me," said Pernia firmly. "I just know it wasn't because he loved me."
"What makes you say that?"
"You don't hit the person you love do you?"
Pegasus sighed it would seem that young Kaiba's temper had gotten a hold of him once again and this time he didn't think there was a way to repair the damages.
"Do you want to stay here?" he asked gently.
"No," said Pernia shaking her head side to side. "I don't want to stay here. I want to go home. I want to go back to America."
"I'll make the arrangements," said Pegasus placing a hand on his neice's shoulder. "And when we reach home there is something you should know."
Pernia just nodded in understanding and Pegasus left the room to make the arrangements.

Standin' in the middle of nowhere,
With your arms wide open and you,
You were the reason when there was no reason.
In my life
You're the reason in my life.

Baby you are the fire,
Burnin' the midnight sky,
And your love,
Keeps taking me higher.
Just when all hope zas gone,
Where the hero belongs...

Seto awoke to find himself alone in the hospital room and he got to his feet and headed toward the main desk.
"Where is Pernia?" he asked firmly the nurse firmly.
"I am sorry Kaiba-san," said the nurse gently. "Pernia-san and Pegasus-san left he hospital two hours ago."
Seto stared down at the woman intently and nodded, he headed toward the entrance to the hospital and had his limo take him back home. He wanted to get there before Pernia arrived finished packing. However, unfortunately for him she had already packed and left. He just sat there on her bed and stared off into space.
"Seto," said Mokuba taking a seat next to his older brother. "I'm sorry."
"For what?" asked Seto.
"For not telling you sooner," said Mokuba hanging his head.
"It's not your fault Mokuba," said Seto in a deadpan tone.
"Actually in a way it is," said Mokuba hesitantly. "Remember when you knew Pernia in Ancient Egypt."
"I do not want to talk about this," said Seto abruptly.
"Yami didn't kill Pernia, nor did he have her killed."
"You are too young to know what you are talking about!" snapped Seto shooting to his feet.
"Actually," said Mokuba hesitantly. "I know exactly what I am talking about because I was there. I saw Noah kill Pernia in Ancient Egypt and the reason I didn't tell you is because I was scared of what would happen."
"Seto," said Mizu coming into the room. "There is something you should know. I know where Pernia is going, what I mean is, I know what airport she is at."
"Well," said Seto after a long moment of silence. "Are you going to tell me or not?"

"Are you sure about this?" asked Pegasus as he and Pernia headed toward the jet that would take them to America.
"Very sure uncle," said Pernia calmly Pegasus had told her everything while she packed up her clothes from the apartment and the mansion.
"Pernia!" shouted another voice.
Pernia and Pegasus turned slightly to see Seto running towards them. Pernia sighed and turned back toward the jet continuing on her way, she had no intention of looking back. Pegasus sighed and stopped in his tracks wondering how Kaiba would get himself out of this.
"Pernia, wait!" shouted Seto.
"Go away Kaiba," said Pernia.
Seto ran passed Pegasus barely paying any attention to the older male. He grabbed hold of Pernia and pulled her against him.
"This should be interesting," said Pegasus smiling softly.
"I'm sorry," whispered Seto.
Pernia remained silent her head bowed and her shoulders shaking with silent tears.
"I love you," whispered Seto kissing her forehead.
"No, you don't," said Pernia. "You might have loved me in Ancient Egypt but you don't love me now."
Seto moved in front of Pernia and tried to kiss her, but Pernia moved her head away, refusing to meet his eyes. With a sigh Seto dropped to his knees wrapping his arms around her waist and burying his face in her stomach.
"I am sorry for all my sins," whispered Seto.
"Get up," whispered Pernia trying not to break down.
"I am sorry for hurting you," continued Seto.
"Stop it!" sobbed Pernia.
"I am sorry for all the women I was involved with."
"Stop! Please stop!"
"I am sorry for being a live."
"No! Stop please stop!"
"I am sorry for everything except falling in love with you."
"Seto," whispered Pernia her voice cracking as she ran her hands through his hair finally giving in. "I love you so much."
Seto smiled and pulled himself to his feet and kissed her with all the passion he could muster.

Author's Notes: Two more chapters and if I am lucky I can knock out another one tonight! Well I am having an A/U teaser contest whichever one of my teasers you like the most is the next A/U I will write. Here they are again for your easy convenience.
1) Detective Sergeant Yami lead his men into the abandoned mansion with his gun pointed in front of him. He motioned for his men to spread out and search the entire mansion. He and a small group of men moved to the left while the others moved to the right. They kicked open the doors as one and moved into the mansion searching for any signs of drugs or the missing girls.
Yami looked around the room he was searching and carefully checked in the bathroom, the closet, behind the curtains, and under the bed. He cursed when he didn't find anything or anyone.
"Damn," he cursed into the wire attached to the collar of his black leather coat. "Anyone find anything?"
"Nope," came the responses of his team.
Yami uttered another curse and looked around the room relaxing the gun slightly but keeping his eyes and ears peeled.
"Yami!" said Joey his best friend.
"What is it Joey?"
"I hear something in the basement."
"Let's check it out," said Yami leaving the room and meeting Joey in the hallway by the door toward the basement.
Together the two males kicked down the door and descended into the basement what they saw there made them stop in their tracks.
"Oh my God," whispered Joey lowering his weapon.
2)
Yami Senso could not believe he had gotten into this predicament. He stared at the stainless steel table at the police office in front of him; he was trying to ignore the stern look of the officer on the other side of the table, Joey Wheeler. Yami was being charged with something that he hadn't committed, someone had framed him, of that he was certain.
"Mr. Senso," said Joey firmly. "If you do not help me, then I can't help you. Now, I want you to tell me everything you remember about last night."
"I told you officer," said Yami dully. "I was no where near the girl."
"I know Yami," sighed Joey dropping the formality. "But you have yet to provide an alibi for that and without an alibi we can not pull out witnesses that can affirm your claim."
"I can not give you witnesses because I was alone," said Yami his eyes fixed now leaving the table.
"Joey," said a new voice as the door room opened and Yugi, a top attorney, walked into the room followed by a woman.
Yami's head snapped up and her took in the new comers. The male had hair that seemed to like his except the yellow wasn't has wild. He was wearing a brown business suit and a white button up shirt with a dark purple tie. He wore wire rimmed glasses over wide yet intelligent purple eyes and his face was set in a firm mask of confidence. The woman that had walked in with him wearing a tight black skirt that showed off her great legs and slim waist, a midnight blue button up blouse that showed some cleavage, she was also wearing a black trench coat that stopped at her knees and her long legs were made even longer by the black pumps she was wearing. Her keen sapphire blues eyes swept the room taking in the officer and Yami, her long black hair was pulled back into a French Twist. There was only one word that Yami could think of that would even come close enough to describe her, ethereal.
