Welcome back to my little story time. Hope you enjoyed the first two stories because now we are on to our third one and like the others there will gore and violence. In my story, Duke Devlon will be the next victim and like the others he'll never sees his demise coming till it's to late, so sit back and enjoy………..

Duke, Tea, Yugi, Ryou and Malik were all staying together since the disappearance of Joey and Tristan. "Where in the hell could they have gone to?" Duke asked.

Tea sat beside Yugi who was so emotionally distraught because of what has happened that he isn't even talking and that has Tea and the others really concern. "I just bet that no good son-of-a-bitch Kaiba has something to do with it" Duke ranted.

"Kaiba and Mokuba aren't even in Domino, so how can you think that he has anything to do with what's been happening?" Malik asked.

Duke started pacing back and forth and it was really beginning to piss off the others and Ryou told him "Why don't you sit down, you're not doing any good walking around like that."

Duke spun around and he shouted "I'll walk around if I damn well want to and you can't do a damn thing about it, so shut the hell up!"

Tea had enough and she stood up and shouted "Everyone shut the hell up, can't you see how this is affecting Yugi?"

Duke started laughing and he then said "Hell he isn't the only one this is happening to, we've all lost friends and Yugi needs to grow up and start acting his age instead of acting like some lost little boy."

That all it took and Yugi shook his head and then he walked over to Duke and he double up his fist and he hit him in the face and knocked Duke flat on his ass and then Yugi said "Now shut the hell up or get the hell out of here."

Duke got up and rubbed his jaw and then he walked to the door and left without saying a word to any of them. Tea looked at the others and she softly said "God, what's happening here and when is it going to end?"

As the others were talking, Duke started walking not caring where he was going and soon he found himself outside the apartment that he and Tristan use to share and tears ran down his face as he thought "Will we ever see each other again?" Duke kept on walking till he ended up at the boat dock near the park and as he sat down on the bench and looked out over the water he remembered all the stupid things that he, Tristan and Joey use to do as kids and then he closed his eyes and he shouted out loud "Where the hell are you guys, come on the joke has gone on long enough. Come out and let's go tell the others that it's been a stupid joke."

Duke sat there till the sun started going down and then he started back towards the Game Shop when he passed by the apartment again and he noticed a light on in the window and he started shaking as he reached for the door knob and as it turned and the door opened, Duke walked into the room and there on a chair facing the bedroom door was someone or something and as he started walking towards the figure, Duke was sweating and he wanted to run out of there as fast as he could, but something was making him walk closer and closer to what was sitting in the chair.

As he got closer to the figure in the chair Duke got really light headed and he closed his eyes for a second and when he opened them again he was still sitting on the bench in the park. "I must really be losing my mind" he thought to himself as he stood up and started walking back to the Game Shop, and as he walked past the apartment he thought he saw a figure in the window and he didn't stop in fact he ran all the way back to tell the others what he had just seen, when he got light headed again but when he closed his eyes and opened them again he wasn't in the Park, he was in the apartment walking to the figure in the chair.

The others were getting worried because Duke has been gone to long and so Yugi stood up and he said "We need to go find him before something happens." So the four of them left the Game Shop and tried to figure out where Duke could of gone and as they all walked towards the Park, inside the empty apartment Duke was getting nearer to the body sitting in the chair and as he reached out to touch the body, he heard from behind him "Well look who it is, our dear friend Duke. Wonder why he's here now when he should have tried harder to find us and keep us safe."

Duke spun around and there in the middle of the room stood two cloaked figures and then they removed their hoods and he saw both Tristan and Joey standing there looking like death and then Joey said "Well, Tris you know that he never really was a very good friend not like you and me were." Duke shook his head as it to he was trying to make all of this horror go away but when he opened his eyes again he was still standing there and he knew that he was going to die, so he turned around and ran towards the door and as his hand touched the doorknob he felt the worse pain and as he tried to scream nothing came out of his mouth and then there was only blackness.

Yugi and the others had walked all around Domino Park and they didn't find Duke and then Tea said "We really need to find some way to contact Kaiba and let him know what the hell is happening and maybe he can help us figure out what or who is behind this." So they all went back to the Game Shop and Yugi tried to call Kaiba Corp. but all he got was a busy signal. That was really strange so he tried calling the Police and he got the same busy signal.

"Guys something is really wrong every time I try calling out I get a busy signal, we need to go to Kaiba Corp. and see if we can talk to Roland and someone who can get in touch with Kaiba." Yugi said, but when they tried to leave the Game Shop the door wouldn't open and they knew something was really wrong.

When Duke came to, he tried to stand up but he found himself tied to a chair, the same chair he had been walking to when he passed out. As he tried started to struggle with the ropes he heard laughter from all around him and then there in front of him was Tristan and Joey and this time they looked normal and then Joey said "You really should have found us and kept them from taking us."

Then Duke turned his head from side to side and he saw shadows and lots of them and then something was holding his head still and right there in front of him appeared this wicked looking knife and then he heard chanting and Joey said "This is for allowing them to take us, you will forever be with us but you will never see anything again."

Then Duke started to scream and scream but nothing came out as the knife cut out his eyes and then his tongue and then it sliced his throat from ear to ear and as he was bleeding to death the laughter got louder and louder till it was so loud it almost sounded like a heart beat and then all of a sudden Duke found himself lying on the floor and as he got up there was a mirror and as he looked at himself nothing was wrong and as he opened the door and walked out into the other room, there sat someone and as he looked closer he saw that it was him and as he screamed and screamed the shadows grabbed his body and yanked him down into the abyss that would be his home for the rest of eternity.

Yugi and the others were finally able to call the Police and report their friend missing and as they searched Domino from top to bottom Duke was never found. Roland got a call from Yugi and as he listened to what he was saying Roland promised to call Seto and tell him, but it wouldn't be in time to save the others… Who will be the next victim????

Please R&R...
