Chapter Four

When the Police issued an APB on Serenity, Seto was at Kaiba Corp., he was in a Meeting, when his secretary gave him a note and he read it; he immediately canceled the Meeting, telling the others, "There has been an emergency at my home, and I'll have Mrs. Turner reschedule this meeting for later this week."

Then he hurried out of the room and went to his private elevator and as he was going down to the garage, he called Roland and said, "Pick me up at the emergency entrance and take me to the Game Shop."

When Roland got there, he could see that Seto was emotionally upset about something and he said, "Seto, what's wrong?"

Seto handed him the note to read and after Roland read it he said, "But how can that be, isn't she still in some kind of coma at the Game Shop?"

Seto said, "Yes, but that won't stop the Police from trying to bully their way into the Shop to try to question her, that's why I have to get there to let Joey and the others know what's going on."

Roland pulled outside the Game Shop and he said, "I'll wait here in case you need to get somewhere else in a hurry." Seto thanked him as he got out of the limo and walked into the Game Shop. Solomon came to see who it was when he heard the bell ring and was surprised to see Seto standing there.

"I have to talk to Joey, it's about his sister." Seto said. Solomon showed him into the other room and there he saw Serenity lying there almost as if she were dead on the couch, Joey stood up and said, "What do you want?"

Seto said, "My secretary gave me this note, and I knew that you'd want to see what it said." He handed the note to Joey and when he read it he said, "Bull shit how could she do such horrible things, she's been like this ever since this all began."

Then Yami, Bakura and Shadi came into the room and Yami went over and said, "Kaiba what's this all about?" Joey then handed Yami the note and when he read it he looked at Bakura and Shadi and said, "The Police think that Serenity has something to do with the deaths of her friends, they have issued an APB out saying that if anyone sees Serenity they are to bring her back to the Station for questioning."

Shadi then said, "We have to keep them from coming here looking for her, until I can make arrangements to move her to a safer location." Seto then said, "I have a Loft Apartment in downtown Domino, you can use that if you want."

Joey then said, "Kaiba why are you being so damn nice, what do you want out of this?"

Before Seto could say anything, Roland came into the Game Shop and when Solomon went to see whom it was, Roland said, "Tell Seto that the Police are going door to door looking for anyone who may have seen Serenity."

Solomon and Roland went back into the other room and Solomon then said, "You better make up your minds what you are going to do, the Police are going door to door looking for Serenity and they'll be here soon."

Shadi looked at Yami and Bakura and he said, "We have to use our powers to get Serenity out of here and the Apartment that Seto said we could use." So they all joined hands and started chanting and then Shadi, Bakura, Yami and Serenity were gone. Joey then looked at Seto and he said, "Could you please take me there, I have to be near to her."

Deep inside the tormented mind of Serenity:

What's going on, why can't I wake up, I try to get Joey to hear me, but all he does is sit there looking at me and saying something, I can't quite make out what he's saying, all I know is that somehow I've got to wake up.

What's that, something or someone is trying to get into my mind, I've got to let Joey know, whatever it is, I'm terrified, please Joey you've got to hear me, please make this nightmare go away, help me wake up, please big brother help me.

When the Police go to the Game Shop, they opened the door and started to shove Solomon out of the way so that they could search the place, when Seto and Roland came out of the other room and Seto said, "Touch this man and I'll see each and every one of you in Court."

Roland then asked, "Why are you here?"

The Sergeant said, "We've been ordered to find a girl by the name of Serenity Wheeler and take her in for questioning, but we haven't found her yet."

Roland then said, "Well unless you have a search warrant, you won't be searching this man's shop, now get the hell out of here and don't come back until you do have that warrant."

Back at the Apartment:

Joey sat beside his sister's body on the couch and then he said, "If it weren't for Kaiba's help, the Police would be trying to get you to answer their questions, we owe him big time."

Shadi then said, "There has to be some way to break the hold this bastard has on her, but whatever it is, I don't know." Yami then said, "

Marik's thoughts:

Now that she's no longer inside that other place where I couldn't reach her, I can now take control of her easier, she'll be my vessel of vengence against the ones who sent me to the Shadow Realm and I won't stop until they are all dead."

Inside Serenity's Mind:

Then the evil presence appeared in Serenity's mind, she said, "Who are you?" Then she heard maniacal laughter and it sent chills down her spine, "Don't you know, I'm the one you and your little friends released when you were playing with that Ouija Board. The evil one said.

She then said, "It was only a game we were playing, we all thought that it was fun messing around with Linda's mind, we never thought that anything bad would happen."

Then the evil presence started to laugh and said, "Well guess what, now you know that nothing is just a game, things bad do happen, now as to why I'm here, you're the reason."

"What do you mean, I'm the reason you're here, what do you want me for?" She asked.

Then the evil presence said, "I'm going to possess your body, then I can get out of this world and take revenge on the people who put me there, you're going to be the vessel that does my bidding and when everyone is dead, I'll be able to walk on this earth again."

Serenity became terrified and she said, "Leave me alone, go find someone else to possess."

Then the evil presence started laughing repeatedly then it stopped and said, "You have no say in this, I'm your master and you'll do as I say or I'll kill everyone around you that you love."

Back at the Apartment:

Joey looked at his sister and he noticed that her eyes were moving like she was dreaming and he said, "Why is she acting like this, what's wrong."

Shadi walked over, he put his hand onto of her head, and he said, "She's having a nightmare, KIRAM is tormenting her, and I pray that she's strong enough to endure what he's doing."

Yami then said, "All we can do now is pray to whoever you believe in to give Serenity their strength so that she can fight off his advances."

Joey had enough of them saying KIRAM, so he said, "Will you both please call him by his given name, call him MARIK, and if I could I get inside my sister's mind and find a way to destroy him once and for all."

Inside Serenity's Mind:

She said, "You hear that, my brother wants to kill you so that you'll leave me alone and I pray that he does."

Marik laughed and said, "Your brother thinks he's strong enough to stop me, well maybe I'll give him the chance, who knows maybe it will make me laugh."

Joey took Serenity's hand in his and he said, "Rene, I wish you could hear me, you need to fight like you've never fought before, if you don't then that bastard is going to win and god, I can't lose you so please fight."
