I've gotten a couple requests to not end this so soon, or at least complaints that is ending soon. So, I decided to take a couple ideas granted to me be Yugi Mutou. Here are your choices, tell me what you want when you review.

A) This ends as planned, within the next couple chapters, and that's it. Period.

B) This ends almost as planned, but I leave it open and come up with a sequel. I've got the general idea for this, but not the whole thing so it wouldn't come out as fast.

C) This ends and I do a story involving Yugi and Selene before Selene helped Yugi and then ran away herself. And then maybe following into her life after she met the Venators. I also have the general idea for this, but it too wouldn't come out as fast.

If I do B or C I'll probably do the other later. Same with if I get people who want A, I'll probably try and do C later if people want me to. Just give me your opinions in a review and I'll be very thankful.

You know the rest.

~*~*~*~Last time~*~*~*~

At the sight before them Damien and Jake let loose a yell of anger and, whipping out a weapon each, ran into there, shortly followed by the other three behind them.

~*~*~*~On with the story~*~*~*~

Damien whipped out his ball and chain as he rushed in and, thinking quickly, tossed it at the stunned man who stood next to Yugi, still clutching the knife. Caught off guard the man's legs got tangled up and he toppled to the ground. His head hit the ground with a satisfying thud and he was out like a light. After seeing that Jake, Jason, and Derek were taking care of the guys who'd been around Selene and that Yami-who was watching the others fight with a look of shock on his face-was with Yugi, he turned to Akuma.

"You bastard!" he shouted as he drew his sakabato, or reverse-blade sword, and charged at Akuma. While he had trained to use a katana, or Japanese sword, he usually used a sakabato unless it's an emergency to avoid killing.

Akuma leapt out of the way and smoothly drew his katana. Unlike the Venators he had no reservations about killing others. "Fine then, try to stop me if you can. With that little toy of yours." He said.

Damien attacked again and Akuma blocked again. Then Akuma attempted an attack only to have Damien dodge it. This cycle kept on for a while, each attacking at random intervals and dodging or blocking the other's attack.

Meanwhile Jake had drawn his daggers and was currently against someone who had pulled out a trident from gods only knew where. He was managing to hold the other off, keep an eye on Selene, and scratch the other guy a couple of times. All in all, he was holding his own pretty well. During the next jab the guy with the trident got sloppy `cause he was angry and that allowed Jake to deflect it downwards and, after flipping the blade in his hand, hit the guy in the back of the neck with the hilt, knocking him out cold.

Jason, during all this, had drawn his sias and was currently against someone holding a metal bo, or long staff. While it may not be able to cut him very easily, it could definitely skewer him if it was used the right way. Though he had managed to hit the other guy's right hand fingers, causing quite a bit of pain in the process. He too was keeping an eye on the unconscious Selene. When the guy came at him again he hit the same hand, causing him to lose his grip. Taking the opportunity he closed the sias, basically put the hilt outward with the spear part resting against his forearm, and rammed one into the guy's gut and the other up into his chin, putting him out of this fight.

In the meantime, Derek had also drawn his daggers and was going against a guy holding a pair of steel nunchucks. He was managing to hold him off, but he had yet to score a hit. Then he used the dagger to slow the metal part slightly and let the chain wrap around his left forearm. Using the time it took for the other guy to shake off his shock, however short it may have been, he closed the other dagger and rammed the hilt into the guy's groin, hard. He barely got out before the other guy fell, doubled up in pain. Using the chance he saw he slammed his left elbow down on the guy's neck and knock him out. This was about the time the other two finished with their fights too.

Yami watched in shock as the group he came in with fought expertly with the ones who'd held their friends captive. He had rushed right over to Yugi and untied him when he'd gotten through the door. Currently he was sitting beside the unconscious Yugi, who was leaning against a stack of boxes.

When Jason, Jake, and Derek had all finished with their fights they ran over to Damien who was currently looking slightly worse than Akuma with a few scratches on him.

Akuma, seeing his men fall, knew that it was over. While he could handle one and at the best of times maybe two of the Venators at a time there was no way in Hell that he could handle four of them. He jumped backwards onto a stack of crates and out the window above him. Also unlike the Venators, the Lotronis were not friends, and only worked well together.

Seeing that Akuma wasn't coming back, the others sheathed their weapons and walked over to Yami, Damien taking a slight detour to pick up Selene.

Seeing Yami's curious expression Jason quickly said, "Let's get out of here first, then you can ask questions." Seeing Yami nod he helped him pick up Yugi, one of Yugi's arms around each of their necks and Jason with one arm underneath his arms and Yami had one arm around Yugi's waist. Damien was still carrying the unconscious Selene bridal style. Jake took up a position in front of the two groups and Derek behind. They could never be too careful.

When they reached the game shop they, thankfully, found a note to Yami saying that Grandpa would be out on errands for a while and might not be home until dinner. Yami led them up to Yugi's room, they'd kept it the same way it'd been when he'd left, and set Yugi down on the bed. Damien sat down on the floor and leaned against the wall, refusing to set Selene down-he was stubborn that way. Yami sat on the bed next to Yugi, Derek was leaning against the wall near the desk, where Jake was currently sitting in the chair. Jason was copying Damien and leaning sitting against a wall.

"So," Jason said, the first to break the silence, "I guess you want a explanation for what just happened back there." At Yami's nod he sighed. "Well, I guess we better start from the beginning." After a moment he opened his mouth again to say something but was cut off by a groan from the now semi-conscious Selene.

Selene opened her eyes, but shut them again quickly after seeing the lights. "Damn," she muttered, "I feel like I was just hit by an eighteen-wheeler."

"Really," Jake said, a sly smirk on his face, "'cause you look it too."

"You're lucky my head's pounding so much or I'd ram you into the ground for that, baka." Selene said, slowly opening her eyes again.

When she saw Damien's face above hers she smiled slightly at his concerned expression. "I'm fine," she muttered to him and slowly sat up. Damien let her do so with obvious reluctance.

"So I take it you found us." Selene said casually after seeing that the room was not one she'd seen before and then seeing Yami sitting on the bed next to an unconscious Yugi.

"Yup, and now he" Derek jerked his thumb toward Yami as he said this, "wants an explanation."

Selene nodded and said, "How did you find us?"

"My link with Yugi opened up again," Yami replied this time.

Selene nodded again, though this time she seemed slightly resigned. "Well," she said, "I guess it is time you learned exactly what's going on here."
