C53 Searchingfor Mokie& Yami vs Noah
 
“Okay guys, stay close.” Mokuba said. “Seto went this way so it'll be the safest way in, since he's probably already taken care of any guards that would normally be there.”
 
As they were walking, Mokuba tried to figure out what area they were keeping Mokie in. Most of the bedrooms were upstairs, but the holding cells were several floors down. He had to guess that Mokie was probably in a cell since Noah was so angry for him leaving the mansion in the past, which would mean he would be down in the basement cells. So, they would have to go down there and hope the cost would be clear once they got that far.
 
Mokuba was so lost in thought at trying to think of where Mokie could be, that he noticed too late that he walked right through an alarm. He froze, causing the others to almost run right into him.
 
“Hey, watch it, kid!” Joey said in hushed whispers. “We almost ran you over. Something wrong?”
 
`That's strange.' he thought. `Nothing happened. Seto must have found the main alarm control and turned everything off. That'll make things a lot easier.'
 
“Sorry....it's nothing.” Mokuba quietly muttered back and they kept going.
 
They quickly made it inside the mansion. Mokuba opened the door and peaked around the hall, seeing no one around. He then came into the hall and waved for them to follow.
 
But as they began to creep down the hall, they heard voices from a couple guards approaching. Quickly, Mokuba whipped open another door, shoving Seto and Joey into a nearby room, and immediately closing the door up in hopes that they weren't found out.
 
As they stood fearfully behind the door trying to control the noise of their own breaths, they heard the guards stop right in front of the door, and could hear his conversation as he spoke over the walkie-talkie. “Brent, it's Dayton. A couple of the kids that came to watch Master Noah's duel have disappeared!”
 
“WHAT? Why haven't I heard anything about this?!”
 
“You crazy? I'm not going to report that! If Master Noah finds out we let them slip away unnoticed, we'll all be in big trouble!”
 
“So, what do we do?”
 
“I've already got a few others quietly searching. I need you to keep watch over Mokuba's room. If anything happens and he disappears, Master Noah will have our hides!”
 
“Understood. We'll take care of it on our end. You just better make sure to find those kids.”
 
Mokuba listened as the guards walked away.
 
Joey whispered, “Shit! Now, what we gonna do!”
 
“Everyone's gonna be looking for us, now!” Seto also whispered, sounding panicked.
 
Mokuba nodded, “I know it sounds bad....but it could be good, too. If we follow the guards, they can lead us right to where your Mokuba's being kept.”
 
“Yeah.....but we're also gonna have ta find a way to get through `em, too.” Joey added.
 
Seto stated, “Let's worry about that, after we find him. Mokuba's right.....those guards will lead us right to Mokie. Let's just go with that.”
 
“Okay.” Joey said.
 
They slowly slipped out the door, and cautiously followed the guards from a far distance in order to find Mokie.

Yami's Obnoxious Celtic Guardian turned out to be far more trouble than Noah had originally anticipated. He assumed it was his normal Celtic Guardian, not anticipating the special affect that this newer version had. It placed an awkward window that his monster had to be within 1450 and 1700 attack points in order to take him out, which was not the easiest number to get to. Yami also made sure to protect his monster with cards to counter against trap and magic cards, when Noah got sick of trying to find a monster that would remove him from the field.
 
But, finally Noah was getting the upper hand. He had used Dark Hole to remove all monsters from the field, then used a Fusion to summon a powerful monster quickly.
 
“Fortunately for you, I have to wait this turn to attack. Not like it will matter any.” Noah sneered.
 
But Yami still showed confidence, as he said, “Don't think removing my monster is enough to totally count me out of the duel. It's time I bring another monster to the field, using Monster Reborn. Come forth my Dark Magician!”
 
“What??” Noah exclaimed. “You're telling me when you discarded earlier, you cast away your Dark Magician?? But, why would you discard such a powerful monster?”
 
“Let's just say I anticipated your attack.” Yami smirked.
 
`He's gotten better.' Noah frowned. `Perhaps it was good to keep him from dueling all this time. But, now I guess it's time to take it up a notch....'
 
“Not if I use this!” Noah grinned, flipping one of his cards. “I cancel out your Monster Reborn, preventing your magician from coming onto the field.”
 
“Oh, no! A Magic Jammer!” Yami thought in concern. Noah had stopped his favorite card from coming onto the field at the moment. For now, he had no choice but to go onto the defensive. “I summon a monster in defense mode, and end my turn.”
 
This isn't looking good, Yami. I think Noah's still too strong. Yugi told him in concern.
 
We can do this. Have faith, Yugi. Yami told him. We will avenge your grandpa.

“You sure he's not going to notice us?” Joey asked quietly.
 
Seto whispered back, “He will if you don't shut your big mouth!”
 
“Shhh!” Mokuba said. Even though these two were supposedly best friends in this world, they still fought with each other. Plus, when they were both around each other, it seemed nothing could keep them from shutting up. Mokuba only hoped that having them together wouldn't give themselves away.
 
He then over-heard Joey asked, “Hey.....what's this?”
 
To Mokuba's horror, Joey had found an odd-looking hole in the wall, and was waving his hand in font of it over and over.
 
Mokuba grabbed his hand and pulled it away quickly, quietly snapping, “That's an alarm!”
 
“You idiot!” Seto said in hushed words.
 
“It aint my fault! How the hell am I supposed to know!” Joey said back quietly. “So.....does that we're toast?”
 
“No.” Mokuba said. “Nothing happened. There should have been an alarm. I noticed earlier we went passed an alarm that didn't look like it was on.” Actually, Mokuba ran through it, but didn't want to admit his mistake. “From what I can tell, I'd say that Seto must have disarmed all the alarms. They're inter-connected into one system, so Seto must have found the master control.”
 
“That sounds complicated.....he must be pretty good at this stuff.” Joey said.
 
“Big deal.” Seto huffed, sounding jealous again.
 
“Well, just remember....this isn't my world. For all I know, there might be some alarms that are on a separate system. So, if you see anything like that, try and avoid them! We gotta be more careful. Besides....it'll only be a matter of time before someone finds out and reactivates the system.” Mokuba added.
 
Seto stated, “So, what you're saying is not to count on what your brother did.....as usual.”
 
“Stop trying to put down my brother!” Mokuba argued.
 
Seto retorted, “Well, if your great and wonderful brother did his job, we wouldn't have to be here, right now!”
 
“What are you complaining about.....you wanted to do this in the first place. Well, now you are!” Joey said.
 
Seto sulked and replied, “Who asked you, anyway?”
 
“We don't have time for this.....let's go!” Mokuba stated.
 
They continued on. As they move, Seto believed that he had heard something and turned to see another guard. He gasps, and whispers, “There's another guard....we gotta hide!”
 
“In here!” Mokuba says.
 
They quickly duck into another nearby room and closes the door, just as a guard comes into the hallway looking around confused, since he was sure he'd heard something.
 
He goes to the door they are behind and tries to open it, but it's locked.
 
`Hmph.....must have been my imagination.' he thought, and soon leaves.
 
Only after he walked away, do they all exhale the breath they were holding. “This is getting too close.” Joey whispered.
 
“Come on.....let's keep going. We can't lose those other guards.” Mokuba says as they once again continue to follow the other two.

Kaiba calmly watches as Gozaburo looks over the contract, once again pulling his pen up to add or edit something else.
 
As he does, Kaiba pulls out the phone and flipped it open to confirm it was Mokuba's number. Instead he notices it was a text message that read, “Me, Joey, and Seto went to get the other Mokuba. Will call again when we got him.”
 
`Shit!' he thought, realizing what his brother had just done. Given.....from the time on his phone, there would be no way that he would be able to duel and get Mokie out in time. But if his brother was caught, it could ruin everything that he had worked on.
 
`Damn it, Mokuba.....why couldn't you just wait?' Kaiba thought. But seeing who his companions were, he knew they were probably to blame. And if those two were with his brother, that would make his chances to succeed practically nil.
 
But, Kaiba had to stay in control.....he couldn't let himself look anxious or Gozaburo would know something was amiss. He inwardly sighed, knowing he was stuck there, as he thought, `If Mokuba gets in danger because of those two loser, I'll make them pay. And knowing those morons, I'm probably going to have to save all four of them.'
 
Then re-thinking that, he decided, `Or maybe just two of them. After all....if Seto and Wheeler end up getting themselves in trouble, he and that mutt can get themselves out of it, as well.'
 
But the main concern Kaiba had was if Mokuba was caught, they were going to realize there's more than 2, and possibly blow up everything he's trying to do. Then again.....leaving Seto there might cause the same problem.
