C6 Noah! and Can Yami get me home?
 
Back in the alternate world, Mokie was considering surrendering to Noah in order to save his friends. But he didn't get a chance to make his move.
 
Yami had given Joey a smirk, which seemed to silently allow Joey to guess what Yami had in mind, without actually saying anything. Yami then loudly cried, “NOW!” and both charged the guards.
 
Noah and the guards stood in stunned silence, neither of them expecting Joey nor Yami to be so bold.....so stupid to charge some of Noah best guards. But it was the surprise of Noah's group that Yami took full advantage of. Before Noah knew what happened, both Yami and Joey ran right passed the guards, grabbing Angie and Mokuba, and cried out, “Run!!”
 
“What??” Noah exclaimed, as he turned to see the group running into the more heavily crowded park. He whirled towards his guards angrily, snapping, “Don't just stand there, you dolts! Get them!!”
 
That snapped the guards out of it quickly, as they rushed after the others.
 
Yami knew there was no way to over-power the guards, so the next best thing was to outsmart them. He looked around his surroundings and found the best way to give them a slip was to rush into the crowded area, allowing themselves to get buried in the masses of people. It was presently lunch-time and all the workers come out from everywhere to head to lunch......and the park was one of the attractions to either eat there, or pass-by so it was always crowded at this time. Perfect.
 
Yami lead the way, Joey followed behind dragging Angie, who firmly held Mokie's hand. It was a tough squeeze through the crowds of people, but as long as he held tightly to Angie, he knew he wouldn't get lost. But Mokie could hear the annoying cries of the people behind him from the guards pushing through to get them.
 
`They'll keep coming......they'll just keep coming. Then my friends and my new family will all become hurt because of me.' Mokie looked up at the hand Angie was grasping on to, knowing if he let go.....Angie would not be able to hold on. `I'll be strong like that other Mokuba......I'll face the danger alone, so they wont be hurt. I'm sorry Angie, I'm sorry Seto.....at least I learned what peace was for a short time. It was fun....'
 
The hand loosened up and slipped from Angie's grasp.....the crowds of people swallowing them up, leaving Mokie behind.
 
It was only moment later that the crowd of people parted to let those behind him through to where Mokie was.
 
“Well, well, well......hello, Mokuba.”
 
Mokuba looked up and sighed. `Hi, Noah.' Mokuba thought to himself. He wanted to say it out loud, but knew exactly what would happen if he did. Then again......whether he talked or not, when he got back he knew his punishment was still coming. He dared to talk at all, when Noah had told him not to. Noah knew Mokie had been talking and would make him pay for it.
 
“You do know what's coming to you for daring to speak.....don't you, Mokuba?”
 
Mokuba sighed and nodded his head yes. It was the same thing for him.....more yelling's and beatings. `I'm sorry Seto, Angie, everyone.....I really wanted to be friends and have a real family, but I guess it was never meant to be. Good bye.'
 
Mokuba then stood beside Noah as always, and followed him with the guards right behind, to ensure Mokuba didn't try to get away.
 
Noah now turned to them, and snapped, “Track down Mokuba's little friends, and be sure they don't follow us!”
 
“But, Master Noah......who will guard the boy?”
 
“Mokuba doesn't need guarding.” Noah sneered, and turned to him. “You won't run away....will you, Mokuba?”
 
Mokuba sighed and shook his head no. `Why would I? At least staying with you, it ensures my friends will be safe. I wish Seto were here to protect me......but he's gone, now. Maybe he was smart and decided to stay away from me, since I'm so much trouble.'
 
Mokie could always sense when Seto was near. But now that he could not sense him anymore, Mokie felt even emptier and more alone than ever. He was losing any will left to fight without him here for him. All that was left now was his sealed fate with Noah.

Once they finally got through the crowd, Yami and Joey managed to hook up again. “Where's Angie?” Yami asked.
 
“I lost her grip, but I know she's right behind me.” Joey said and looked to see Angie catching up. “There she is!”
 
But Angie didn't look happy, and Yami became quickly concerned to see her alone. “Angie.....where's Mokuba?”
 
“I can't find him, guys! Somehow, he slipped out of my grasp while we were running. I tried to stop and look for him, but I couldn't find him anywhere!” Angie said in hysterics. “I lost him......I lost my brother, and it's all my fault!”
 
Yami turned back towards the crowd, knowing exactly what that meant. “Mokuba.......Noah got him.”

Back in Kaiba's world, Aiko called Yugi and explained the situation.
 
After Yugi was finally done drilling Aiko on all the questions he had, he agreed to be over soon.
 
It wasn't long at all for Yugi and all the others to show up at the door. Aiko answered it, opening it for them. “Greetings. Please, come in....”
 
They all approached Seto sitting down, and were looking at him strangely......as if they were staring at a caged monkey.
 
“What??” Seto asked, not liking the strange stares.
 
“Nothing!” the said fearfully, quickly assuming he was going to rip their heads off. But when nothing else was said to them, they relaxed.
 
Yugi gave a slight chuckle, rubbing the back of his head. “Gee......he certainly does act different, doesn't he?”
 
Tristan then approached, asking, “So, you're like......really from another dimension? You look the same. You're just.....dressed different.”
 
“And act different.” Tea added.
 
Seto glared. “Why does everyone keep saying the way I dress is weird? It's not that much different than you guys. You got a problem with the band on my T-shirt or something?”
 
“Band?” Angie asked, really looking at the shirt for the first time. It was a band she didn't even recognize.
 
“Actually, dude.....it's the clothes, themselves. You don't get it, yet. You're filthy rich! You don't wear clothes like us.....you wear stuck-up rich clothes!” Tristan exclaimed.
 
“Tristan.......” Tea scolded, finding his comment a bit rude.
 
“Uh, yeah Kaiba.....we're not putting your clothes down. The style's just different.” Yugi smiled.
 
“Really? Gee.....what does the guy from this world wear?” Seto asked.
 
“If we are done questioning clothing styles, maybe we can finally get down to business.” Aiko stated, walking into the room.
 
“Sorry.” everyone pretty much muttered.
 
Seto then looked to Yugi, saying, “Yugi.....I need to talk to Yami.”
 
“Uh.....okay, sure.” Yugi said allowing Yami to take over.
 
“Seto.” Yami nodded. “What do you need?”
 
“Well....in my world, you have a lot of power inside your puzzle. And when she…” Seto said pointing to Aiko. “Told me that Mokuba's brother was brought back by someone but wasn't sure who, I knew it had to be you! You're the only one I can think of who could do this! I realize that a lot of things in this world are different, but I really have to get home and I was hoping you'd help me!”
 
Yami considered his words, and nodded. “I understand. You have quite a dilemma, I'm sure.....and if I could, I would be more than happy to help you. However, I know little about the full extent of my powers. I fear any attempts made by me would not be able to help. If anything.....they could only make matters worst. Sending you on a one-way trip to another dimension, with no way of knowing if you're in your correct world is far too risky. I'm confident that you're in much safer hands with Aiko.”
 
“But Aiko said she can't do it!” Seto exclaimed. “And I trust you, Yami. We're friends, and I know you can do this!”
 
Yami blinked, definitely not used to someone that looked like Kaiba to speak so highly of him. He gave a slight smile of appreciation, saying, “I appreciate the vote of confidence, which is all the more reason I can't risk this. Please understand......I don't want anything bad to happen to you. I couldn't forgive myself, if my own powers placed you in danger.”
 
Seto got up and approached him, saying, “But nothing bad is going to happen. You are the one that taught me the strength of friendship. As long as we believe in each other, nothing can go wrong.”
 
Everyone's eyes widened at that, including Yami. Was this really Kaiba......from `any' dimension??
 
“......don't you believe that, in this world?” Seto asked.
 
Yami's smile widened, feeling his light cheer from also hearing what Seto had announced. “Thank you. Yes, that belief is equally strong in this world, as well. You must be very close to the Yami in your world.” Yami crossed his arms, and thought for a moment. “So, you believe that Yami from your world sent Kaiba back here. But I couldn't imagine him doing so with the same lack of knowledge that I currently have......which would mean only one thing.”
 
Yami then turned back to Seto, stating, “In your world......I have full knowledge of my past, don't I?”
 
“That's right.” Seto answered. “And yes.....we're best friends.” he added. Then Seto asked, “So, wait.....you mean, you don't remember your past yet?”
 
“No.” Yami told him. “I have learned `some' things......I know I am a Pharaoh from ancient Egypt, but most of my memories and the full extent of my powers still elude me.”
 
“Oh......” Seto said, looking down. “So, then.....I guess you can't help me. I'm sorry I bothered you.”
 
“It's no bother at all. In fact, it's quite refreshing to see a version of Kaiba so open and friendly. It gives me hope that maybe someday he will finally open up to us.” Yami smiled.
 
“Doubt it......” Tristan muttered to himself.
 
Yami ignored it, adding, “But I'm the one who should be sorry. If I knew more about myself, then I may have been able to help you. Unfortunately, that is not the case.”
 
Seto smiled weakly, saying, “I understand. Well, thanks for coming over here to see me.”
 
“It was my pleasure. I hope you make it home.” Yami said.
 
“Thank you.” Seto replied. But that didn't help solve anything. If Yami couldn't help and this Aiko couldn't help.....then how was he going to make it back home?
