Geno wiped his brow, and then returned to the work at hand. HE plunged his shovel into the dryearth, and plopped another bit of sand to the side of him. HE closed his eyes, breathing hard. He looked over at Agile, huddled over something, his body shaking.

Geno stopped, and threw the shovel in the air, sending it into orbit. He lept out of the hole. He walked a few meters, and let out a heart breaking scream, collapasing to his knees. He turned hisd back; he didn't want Agile to see him cry.

After a few minutes, he believed he was ready to continue, and went back to work, now with his bare hands. But his mind kept processing, to that moment: A blast, a laugh, Agile in the way.....Geno looked up at the sky.

"DAMN YOU!" He screamed. "YOU HAVE EVERYTHING,WHY DO YOU NEED TO DO THIS TO US?!?! HUH? ANSWER THAT YOU.....YOU....." He slammed his fist into the desert, leaving a massive crater. He looked back at the sky, his hand glowing. "YOU WANT US SO BAD? COME AND GET ME!" His dagger twisted to a sword. "YOU HEARD ME!!!" He fired a blast in the air. "COME ON, HIT ME!! HIT ME ALREADY!!! LET'S GET THIS DONE WITH!!!"

Agile looked at him, tears streaking his checks. Geno closed his eyes, and returned to his work. Finally, he had dug the hole. He walked over to Agile.

"It's time."

Agile nodded, and Geno looked at Amy's still form. She looked asleep, so peaceful. But as one's eyes drifted, they saw the hole in her chest, a massive burnt crater from an angelic blast. Geno carefully wrapped her up in some linins, and then, lowered her into the grave. He poured to dirty on her, and planted a simple cross bearing her name: Amy Kreig.

Geno turned, and looked at his brother as he just sat there, staring. He flipped open his cell.

"Hi....Keith, ya, it's me......we need you to drive just outside of Vegas, we're in the desert. Hurry up......thanks man."

Kevin flipped through the radio stations. "Nothing. Man, now I have to get this thing fixed!" He frowned. "Darn it, that will set me back a few hundred bucks."

Tristan chuckled. "I'd think you wouldn't mind, with all the money you got for your last lecture."

Kevin turned and looked at him. "I will care until I have Guy Roads' money." He turned back to the lonely stretch of highway that shot straight to Domino. "So, glad to be back?"

Tristan nodded. "Ya, I really missed the gang. It's been a long month."

Kevin grinned. "I bet having Serenity around made things easier."

Tristan looked in the backseat, where Serenity slept. She had decided to go with them to visit Joey, and Kevin would drive her back a few weeks later when he was scheduled to do a lecture at her home town. Kevin yawned, and looked around.

"It is dead out here."

Tristan shrugged. "Well, it's midnight, not a lot of people drive around"

Kevin nodded, and pulled into an off ramp. Soon, they were driving through down town Domino, which was eerily silent. Finally, they pulled up to Joey's apartment. Kevin picked Serenity up and Tristan used his spare key to let them in. They tip toed to the living room and set her on the couch. They headed back to the car and drove to Tristan's place.

"I'll call you tomorrow, and we'll go meet up with yoru friends." Kevin said.

"See ya Kev."

Kevin nodded and drove off. He circled around, and headed to his place, a nice ocean view the college had given him. He looked around, and stopped his car.

"This place should be teaming with people.....yet it's empty." He said to himself. He pulled out his cane and began to walk around. Though he didn't need it anymore, he had taken a shine to it and decided to continue using it, just for the look....as well as it's other uses. "Where is everyone?"

"They are with our mistress."

Kevin turned, and noticed the strange men, all dressed in black cloaks. One stepped forward, and removed his hood to reveal his tanned Egyptian skin, his large, pointed hair and evil smirk.

"Malik?" Kevin asked, recognizing the duelist.

But this man laughed. "Please, my weaker half is in Egypt, trying to redeem himself for all the things he did."

Kevin looked at them all. "Yami malik....but you were destroyed."

Another figure stepped forward, a tall man, with a long mustache and slicked back hair. "You will soon see that what you hold as truth is far from it."

"Gazabora Kaiba! But how!?!"

Gazabora chuckled. "Let us just say we made a deal with a nice angel, and now, we get to live." He grinned like a cat who had just caught a mouse. "The only payment she asked for was Domino, and all that dwell there."

Kevin turned, and found himself surrounded by Rare Hunters. He looked in shock at rare hunters, people long thought dead....all had returned.

Kevin raised his cane in defense. "You want me, come and get me!"

The group punced, dog piling the professor. But when all had settled, Kevin was gone.
