The two brunettes stood facing one another as everyone stood around wondering what would happen next, as they continued to look at one another Téa's eyes began to well up with tears and then all of a sudden she took one last look at her brother and engulfed him in a tight hug. He quickly wrapped his hands around Téa burying his face into her shoulder. All the others could do was stand and watch; each had a small smile on their faces.
After five minutes of hugging Tristan looked at the others who were also becoming slightly bored, they all wanted to know what had truly happened to Téa and Valon to cause them to be separated so many years ago.
"Er so now what," Joey voiced uncertainly as he looked at the pair.
"I'm not so sure," Mai muttered as she gave the blonde a side glance.
Just then the two brunettes pulled apart looking at one another with a sad face, "what happened to you," Valon whispered stroking her wet cheek.
"I was taken to Japan when I saw something that I shouldn't have. I'm so sorry about everything I wish I never left you in that horrible place; I wish you would have come with me. I hate myself for leaving you behind." She cried as more tears streamed down her face; she kept repeating I'm sorry over and over.
"Shush now it wasn't your fault. I'm alright see?"
"No, if you were alright you would never have started taking soles. How did you even get to this place? Hell what is this thing that you are doing?"
Running his hand over his face he looked at Alister and Raphael who scowled silently telling him not to say a word. "I'm sorry dudes it's my sister," the two older men glared at him one more time before looking away. Téa seeing his discomfort stood beside him.
"When you left things got out of hand at home and about a week after your disappearance I thrown on to the streets and left to fend for myself, I went to Jonathon Higgins house, you remember him?" Téa nodded her head. "Well when I got to his house I was told he had moved to Melbourne, that was when I started to live on the streets. Because of our abusive background I knew how to fight which saved me many of times when the elder kids started picking on me. I never lost a fight but one day I was so hungry. I hadn't eaten in days but yet I was so defensive when it came to people and that is where I met Mother Mary. I had fallen outside of the church and she took me in. From there on I was happy, I would go out through the day and she would look after me at night. It was alright, I was free to do as I wish through the day and at night I had food and a roof over my head. Well one day I had arrived back early to see Mother Mary being hit by a group of men, but when I went to defend her she didn't want me too. They never showed up again but they told her to worry. I always blame myself for what happened next." He said quietly.
"Valon it wasn't you fault what happened, don't blame yourself," said Raphael strongly.
"One morning I went out and when I came back the church was in flames, there had been no survivors and there was 39 dead, one of those was Mother Mary. I knew who had done it but instead of informing the police I followed them to an Alley where I attacked them. I was caught and charged with manslaughter and sent to an Adult's prison in Sydney, along with me came the four men I had supposedly killed. The five of us were kept in prison and because of my aggressive behaviour I was placed in a straight-jacket and locked away in a room. I received food three times a day and four bathroom breaks. Then one day my luck changed. I was brought to the office of the main man in charge of the prison, and he gave me and a few others a get out of jail free card could you say." At this Téa and the others looked at him confused. Taking hold of his hand squeezing it slightly he looked towards her as she gave him a comforting smile.
"You never really mentioned what you did when you were released from prison." Said Alister who was slightly intrigued with what Valon had to say.
"I was given a deck of cards and was sent to an Island informed that the one person left on the Island would leave alive and safe."
"But Valon, what do you mean the one left alive and safe?"
"It was then when I was introduced to the Seal of Orichalcos, I was fortunate and for three months I duelled and was successful. I was the final person left on the island. When I had defeated my final opponent I was greeted by Dartz who hired me to be his final Doom Warrior."
Tea, Joey, Yugi and Tristan shared a look. "So that's the slime ball behind all this," cried Joey scrunching his fists looking at the others.
"Oops," Valon chuckled looking guiltily at Alister and Raphael, "haha good job looks can't kill aye chaps," he looked down as the guys glared at him more intense.
"Let us change subject now, Téa what happened to you? I believe Valon deserves an explanation." Mai said.
Tea stiffened as everyone looked at her. "Okay then, I guess I should start at the beginning. I don't know if I ever told you guys but my biological parents were heavy drinkers and drug takers. My mother was a vile skeletal bitch whose personality was as sour as the drinks she drank. My father was the opposite if I remember correctly he was a biggish bloke who stunk of booze and cigarettes. I have not one happy memory with either of them. I was three when my life was torn apart. It was late one night and I had woken thirsty, it was a simple rule in our house. Do not leave your room unless told too. Well I thought that my parents would be too far out of it to notice well that was where my first down fall came. I left my room and was about to go down the stairs when I saw the light on in Valon's room." Valon frowned but stayed quiet.
"I should have just gone down the stairs but I was stupid, thinking he was awake I crept to the door and I saw our parents stood over him as he slept, and then… and then…" Téa's voice cracked as she spoke covering her mouth. Everyone could see the tears were beginning to form in her eyes.
"What happened Téa?"
"They were leaning over you with - with a syringe in their hands. Valon they were drugging you with something, but I think that might have been why you were suffering from headaches and muscle pain a few weeks before I disappeared." Her tears were flowing freely now as she felt Valon's hand disappear from hers and he fell to the ground stunned. Nobody spoke; silence surrounded them apart from Téa's sobbing.
"Continue sis," Valon whimpered weakly.
"In my surprise I gasped and they turned around, terrified I ran away but he caught me and dragged me up to the wall. He knew I would say something so he gave himself two options murder me. Or send me far away. Mother didn't want me to be murdered she didn't want the blood on the carpet and she didn't know where to hide a body. So it was decided that I would be sent far away. That night he booked the first plane to Japan and I was taken early morning. I didn't dare ask him where he was taking me, I was too scared. When we reached Japan he took me down a street and left me there on my own. I had nobody. I wandered the streets for a few days until I came upon the Gardner's and they took me in. Since then I have lived there and lived a relatively normal life and tried to put my past in the past. I had nearly forgotten everything I had suffered until we cleared out the attic months ago and discovered the locket." Her voice stiffened as guilt began to settle.
Valon sat on the floor as the words going straight through his head but the two words kept repeating themselves, 'drugging you'. He felt vile rise in his stomach and all he wanted to do was be sick and cry, both he wouldn't do in front of his baby sister.
"Valon, how do we find Dartz?" Téa whispered.
Valon looked up at the guys who glared at him hard before he looked at Téa taking a deep breath he looked at her and said, "I'll take you,"
So there it is, the truth is revealed and Valon now knows why Téa was taken away.
