MALIK ISHTAR BOWED, "I am sorry to bust in on you like this…but you have left your door open," he explained.

"Oh," was all Jonouchi could say, but then he turned to Kaiba and said, "KAIBA GET OUTTA MA HOUSE!"

"Really Katsuya? You rather be left alone with a schizophrenic homicidal maniac than with me?" Kaiba said then he smirked, "I have to say Katsuya, you're even stupider than I thought."

"I am NOT a homicidal maniac as you say Mr. Kaiba," Malik said.

Kaiba rolled his eyes, "That is exactly what all homicidal maniacs say,"

Malik decided to ignore the comment, "As Mr. Kaiba had mentioned earlier, the situation has indeed gone out of hand. Therefore we must act at once."

"What a minute…" Jonouchi started, "What are ya sayin'? What situation?"

"The fact that Miss Shizuka sleepwalks," Malik turned to Shizuka then he turned to Kaiba, "And the fact that Mr. Kaiba had not sleeps for days…"

"Sleepwalk?" Shizuka said puzzled, "I'm sorry Mr. Ishtar…"

Malik smiled at her, "Please, Miss Shizuka, you can call me Malik. I am the same age as your brother, you know,"

Shizuka nodded, "Yes…Malik but I have to tell you that I don't sleepwalk…"

But then Shizuka's eyes widened, "The dreams!" she gasped, she ran her hand nervously to her hair, "Now, it ALL makes sense!"

Kaiba cringed at the word 'dreams'. Dreams? What dreams could the mutt's sister be having? Then he remembered yesterday's situation about her sleepwalking around his mansion. Could the sleepwalking have anything to do with her dreams?

Jonouchi still didn't understand the situation. "I don' get it! What da heck is goin' on?"

Malik nodded, "What is means is that everything that has been happening to Mr. Kaiba and Miss Shizuka has a connection."

"A connection!" Jonouchi said indignantly, "What sort of connection could ma sista have wit dis DOUCHEBAG?!"

This is when Kaiba spoke, "Yes, for once Katsuya and I would like to know the SAME THING…what kind of connection do I have…with HER?" he pointed at Shizuka who flinched; he didn't even glanced her way which was fine with her. She was scared of Kaiba. (haha! Kaiba admitted he was a douchebag! LOL!)

Malik closed his eyes and sighed, "I understand your impatience, Mr. Kaiba but I fear you must wait a little longer for a valid explanation. It is…it is TOO dangerous to discuss it here. It must be discussed at the place where the problem had originated, just as my sister has told you, Mr. Kaiba."

Kaiba narrowed his eyes he was indeed tired of all this mystery crap, "Then do tell where should I go?"

Malik looked at him in surprise, "I thought you may have figured that out by now…"

Kaiba growled at him, "Lack of SLEEP, you moron."

Again, Malik decided to ignore the insult, " Egypt," he said, "The answers lie within Egypt."

"Egypt?" Shizuka said incredulously.

Malik nodded, "I have here already, two plane tickets for you and your brother, Miss Shizuka." He said and he reached into his breast pocket and pulled out two tickets. Then he turned to Kaiba, "And of course, I believe Mr. Kaiba will purchase his own plane tickets if he so wishes to go. I must tell you this, even if only Miss Shizuka goes, the problem will not be solved without you present. I have warned you know." He said.

Malik handed the tickets to Shizuka, "I pray that you will do the right thing," Malik whispered to her.

Shizuka stared at him, Malik smiled at her, "I assure you that you have nothing to fear…as long as your brother is with you…" He turned to everyone, bowed and left the apartment.

Kaiba glared at the place where Malik once stood, "I AM TIRED OF ALL THIS CRAP!" Kaiba suddenly yelled.

"SHADDUP KAIBA! NOBODY WANTS TO HEAR YA!" Jonouchi yelled.

"Jonouchi…please understand what Mr. Kaiba is going through…" Shizuka said.

"I don't need YOU to defend me!" Kaiba said…then the unexplainable happened; Kaiba suddenly collapsed.

"KAIBA!"

Whoa! Kaiba collapsed! will he be ok? Nah he'll be fine! i assure you( looks away 'i hope'). so the answers will be revealed if they just go to Egypt? what da heck? Anywyas please read n' review! thank you!
