Chapter 7: The Phone Call

YUGI MOTOU

"Hey Yugi, thanks again for find us a place to hide out." said Nudge as we walked through the halls of Pegasus's castle.

I looked up and said, "Pegasus let us stay here, beside all, I did was call in a favor."

We came to the dinning room to see the rest of the gang sitting down at the table eating except Mokubia.

Mokubia stared at the locket around his neck.

"He been like that since they took Kaiba and Max." Yami said.

"Yeah I know he misses him a lot." I said to Yami.

I sat next to him and said, "You should eat something."

Mokubia stared at the locket and said, "I'm not hungry."

I replied, "You need to keep up your strength."

He continued to look at the locket.

I wish I could help him, I really do, but what can I do?

A phone began to ring.

I looked down to my pocket and said, "It's probobaly grandpa checking in."

I answered the phone and said, "Hello?"

"I can't belie I remember your number, Motou."

I look in amazement and yelled, "KAIBA!? IS THAT YOU?"

Mokubia jumped up in excitement.

Kaiba said, "Put me on speaker phone!"

I turned it on and Kaiba said, "Hello?"

Mokubia yelled, "Seto! Your alive!"

"Then what am I a sack of potatoes?"

The flock yelled, "MAX!"

She laughed through the phone and said, "Yeah, it's me. We're okay... sort of."

I said, "Where are you guys?"

Max responded, "About an hour away from L.A."

The flock gasped.

Nudge whispered out, "The School..."

Kaiba responded, "Yeah, you all were right about it. It's living hell."

Mokubia looked at the phone and asked, "What did they do to you Seto?"

Kaiba remained quite for a moment and said, "I'll tell you when we find you guys. Which by the way where are you?"

Pegasus walked in and said, "With me Kaiba boy."

I heard Kaiba curse under his breath and said, "So Duelist Kingdom."

I replied, "Yeah, Pegusus let us stay after the eraser came after us."

Max asked us, "So where's Duelist Kingdom?"

Pegasus smiled and said, "On an island between, Japan and Marshall Islands. It's large castle can't miss it."

Max sighed and said, "It will take us about a week to get there. We'll call if we get the chance."

Kaiba spoke up and said, "I talk you soon Mokubia but we have to go, it's not safe."

Mokubia's eyes filled with tears as he said, "Bye Seto, I'll see you soon."

They hung up the phone.

I close my cell and placed it back in my pocket.

Mokubia smiled and said, "My brother okay."

"He seems to be doing a bit better." Yami said as her appeared next to me.

Angel waved at Yami.

Yami waved back at her. "It's strange that they can see me."

I nodded and said him, "Maybe if Kaiba sees that they can see us that, he finally belive us."

Seto may believe Max, but the rest of us, I don't know.

Angel looked at us.

She was in our heads, again.

I sighed. "What do mean when you say he might belive Max?"

Angel smiled. He likes her, a lot.

"Never thought I'd hear that about Kaiba." Yami said.

He didn't tell anyone this but, he taught Max how to duel and the tied on her first duel.

Yami and I both simuntainouly said, "What?!"

Angel nodded.

If you don't belive me, when Max comes back, duel her and see what I mean.

I nodded and turned my attention back to Mokubia who was now eating his food contently.

He whole attitude turned around after that phone call.

He was smiling and talking to people.

I can't imagine what he will do when he see's Kaiba.
