Ch.40: Game Start
~Last time~
“A bit tensed aren't we?” Seth said with a chuckle. “Of course you should be, after all I'm going to win two things this evening.”
 
“And what are those?” Atemu said as he stood his ground.
 
“One is your soul, but the second one is the most valuable. The one you call Aibou, was it?”
 
~Now~
Atemu stood there and tried not to show the fear he was feeling. “You… leave… him… out… of… this!” He said trying to control the anger that was rising up. “He has nothing to do with this!”
 
“On the contrary, Pharaoh, he does.” Seth said with a twisted grin.
 
“What do you mean!?” Atemu said as his fists started to shake.
 
Seth saw this and smiled. “I mean Pharaoh that whoever wins this game shall have Yugi.”
 
~Back on the Ship~
“What's wrong Yugi?” Ryou asked as he noticed Yugi, who was staring out of the porthole window.
 
Yugi looked over and sighed. “I have a bad feeling about this guys.” He said.
 
“What do you mean?” Kia asked.
 
“I mean that Atemu and the others aren't here yet.” Yugi said. “You'd think that something has happened to them?”
 
“I'm sure they're fine Yug'” Malik said.
 
Before anyone else had a chance to say another word, there was an odd feeling in the room.
 
“What's going on?” Moukaba said as he placed his hand on his head and as Kia fell on her knees.
 
“Kia! What's wrong?” Ryou said as Malik fell down on the ground and Moukaba followed after that.
 
“Moukaba! Malik! What's happening?” Yugi said, starting to feel panicked.
 
Ryou, who was sitting down on a loveseat, fell uncautious as well.
 
“Ryou!” Yugi called out. But then he felt dizzy. He wobbled past Malik and went into the bedroom, since his instincts were taking over. His sight began to blur to different swirl of colors and fell onto the bed as the passed out.
 
~Back to the others~
Everyone stared in shock and horror when Seth said this.
 
“What did you do to him!?” Atemu demanded praying to every god he knew, besides Seth, that Yugi and the others are unharmed.
 
“Nothing.” Seth said. “Just casted a spell that makes sure that they don't leave the ship.”
 
Atemu couldn't help but tremble at the thought of what this sick god was going to do to Yugi and possibly the others. He can't let that happen. “You mentioned a game. What are the rules.” He regretted what he said, but he had to know what's he dealing with.
 
“If you want to know…” Seth said as he enjoyed seeing the Pharaoh suffer. “It's both a race and a fight for survival.”
 
“What the hell does that suppose to mean!?” Atemu shouted, not liking the idea.
 
“It's simple really.” Seth said. “You and your pathetic friends will race against me. But you will have to fight your way to catch up with me.”
 
`Damn him!' Atemu thought as his eyes narrowed and rage was starting to build up within his soul. (A/N: You don't want to be around with him when he's mad, especially when Yugi is not around X.X )
 
“Win, and you have Yugi.” Seth continued. “Lose… and your soul will go straight to hell.” He dangerously smirked when he saw Atemu shaking in anger and fear.
 
“I… I accept your challenge.” Atemu said as he mentally beat himself up.
 
“Oh I'm so glad you accepted my little challenge of `winner-takes-all'.” Seth said as he put on a false smile and clapped his hands together. “Okay! In order for you to get to the ship, you must find and battle your way from this point. Once there, you have to find the rooms that Yugi and the other trash he calls friends…”
 
“Don't you dare talk about Kia like that!” Kayra said clenching her fists.
 
“Oh it's on now!” Bakura said as the started to take off his leather coat.
 
“Why won't we kick your ass here and now!” Alysia said, rage building up.
 
“No on talks about Malik that way and lives.” Marik said as he got the Millennium Rod out.
 
“STAY OUT OF THIS!!!” Atemu shouted, making them stop in their tracks.
 
“Why not Pharaoh!” Bakura asked, not getting him.
 
“This challenge is about Yugi, therefore, I'm the one who will kick this bustards ass.” Atemu said as he looked at Seth with a death glare.
 
“So are we ready to begin with our little game of keeps.” Seth said.
 
“Ready.” Atemu said in a deadly calm tone.
 
“Game start!” Seth said as he ran one direction.
 
Alysia started up her van. “Come on Atemu!” She shouted through the roaring of the engine. “Thanks to those fucked up zombies in the way, we have to bust ass to catch up!”
 
Atemu got in. “Well, don't sit there and complain about it.” He said with no emotion at first, but then put on a smile. “Kick this hunk of metal into overdrive, and that's an order from the pharaoh.” He said.
 
Alysia got the point and getting the need-for-speed. “An order I'm glad to carry out.” She pounded the pedal and bulldozed the creatures.
 
After at least two to three blocks of running over screwed up zombies, the tire gave way.
 
“Not now!” Alysia said when the tire burst. “Goddamnit!”
 
“We got bigger problems.” Kayra said as the creatures surround them.
 
“Shit! Now what?” Bakura said.
 
Marik looked down at his rod and smirked. “Hey Kay.” He said.
 
“What is it?” Kayra asked.
 
“You still have the outfits you made in case we messed up the ones we have on now?” He asked.
 
“Yes, why?” Kayra said curiously.
 
“Just wanted to know.” He said as he opened the door and started to slash the closest one to pieces.
 
“Marik!” Everyone shouted as he slashed the creatures with ease.
 
~5 minutes later~
Marik got back into the van, soaked in blood and his outfit was torn and ripped. “Tire's in place.” He said.
 
After he defeated the creatures, he put on a spare tire to replace the one that blown out.
 
“Okay that was a waste of time!” Alysia said as she put the pedal to the metal, again. “Now we have to make up for lost time.”
 
Everyone braced themselves for a fast and bumpy ride.
 
`Yugi, please be safe.' Atemu thought as he tried to push away the thoughts of what Seth would do to him if he lost. `No! I will not lose Yugi to some sicko!'
