Oh, gawd, guysies! I'm so sorry for the long wait! My muse for this story has been on a vacation for the past few months and other muses came and took over. I'm going to try and get back in the traffic, so please be patient with me.

The last chapter is typed, but the ones in between is still hazy. I have been trying to remember how the last version of this story was, but it's not going so good…. well, except for the last chapter that is.

In other news, yours truly -- if she can receive financial aid-- will be attending Huntingdon College in Montgomery, Alabama! I was accepted and now I am applying for aid! So happy! For those who wish to know, I will be majoring in Creative Writing! Perfect choice, ne?

YU-GI-OH

When people are mere children, they have always been told that silence was golden, but as the children grew older, they realized not all silences are appreciated.Forces Enlightenlearned the truth of silence when teammate Tristan Taylor arrived and showed the group the 'thing.'

It made them all shiver from the darkness surrounding it and the auburn liquid that dripped to the floor brought a sob from a blond. He fell to his knees, pounding the floor with every punch he took as tears escaped closed eyes. He refused to believe the hidden meaning in his friend's silence.

It wasn't true!

It couldn't be true….

Twenty minutes after the group received the information, Teá broke the silence. "We have to contact Solomon and let him know. Then we let him take it from there."

Joey glared at the girl from his position of lying on the couch. The girl could only see one eye of the glare for the boy didn't turn his head. "Let him know what? There's nothing for him to know."

Teá glanced at her other two comrades before speaking again. "Joey, I know you don't want to accept it, but Seto's LinkCam is dead. You saw it with your own eyes. You saw the blood! He's gone, Joey."

The boy snorted, turning on his side, backside turned towards the group. "No he's not! You don't know if it's his blood! Damn it, Teá! That blood could be anyone!"

"Then how did it get on Kaiba's LinkCam?" The voice surprised the group and they all stood, including the blonde. Solomon was leaning against the door frame, a sad smile on his face. "We need to tell them. Then maybe we can find the truth about Seto," His eyes landed on Joey, "But until then, we need to accept what the facts give us."

The man walked to the table in the middle of the group and picked up the LinkCam. "This has blood on it. Even if we find out that it's not Seto's blood, we still need to figure out how the blood got on it." He paused, setting the LinkCam back on the table. "Now, Teá, you were thinking about telling Isis the truth?"

She gasped. How did he? Oh, right, he could read minds. "Yes. Maybe they could help us find Seto."

"Ah, then you weren't thinking about the other thing, then?"

"No. That should be kept secret."

YU-GI-OH

Ryou started to cough after a few minutes of continually laughter. He allowed himself to fall back on the floor, joining his brothers in rolling around. A growl started a new fit of laughter to him.

He couldn't help it! It wasn't his fault that Mariku decided to tell the three of the time when Yami and Bakura were stuck together after fight for a popsicle. Somehow, the popsicle had frozen to both of the vampire's tongue and refused to be taken off for days.

His tri-colored haired brother raised up, leaning against the couch end, giggles still coming out of his mouth. "Sorry," he apologized, and then frowned when the two being made fun of didn't respond. "I said I was sorry!"

"Don't bother, little one. They'll be like that for a while."

Yami snorted at the platinum-haired man. "Yeah, well, we wouldn't be if you hadn't decided on sharing that 'interesting story.'"

"Yeah!"

The doorbell rung, causing the three brothers (Ryou, Malik, & Yugi) not to point out that Bakura had just agreed with Yami, something the two would never do. "Who could that be?" Malik wondered out loud, glancing at the digital clock on the coffee table. 9:36 P.M. "Who would come here at this hour when mom is still awake?"

Isis walked in the room, going towards the door. "That's what I want to know," she said, answering her son's question. She opened the front door to find Solomon and a group of teens on her doorstep. "Solomon! What a surprise; especially since you just left about two hours ago."

The man in question sweat-dropped. "Eh, Isis, dear, we need to explain a few things to you."

YU-GI-OH

"So let me get this straight," Isis said, a few minutes after Teá explained. "You guys knew about my sons and planted some kind of chip in their heads?"

Teá shook her head. "No, only Ryou."

"And that is the reason why he has been having these painful nightmares? You sent my son excruciating visions." She shook her head, trying to control her anger. "May I ask why?"

Solomon raised his hand, showing to the group that he would be the one who would explain. "I'mpretty sure all of you have heard of Carrie?" They nodded."I once read that there was a prophecy showing that three children, having the same images of the three Ice Kings, would be able to defeat him. I had hoped that Ryou would lead us to him from the dreams we sent to him."

He paused, looking at Isis. He could tell she was trying hard not to jump up and stab every one of them for hurting her middle child. "Carrie has a son, one that if Carrie ever found, would be the destruction to the human population. We may be vampires, but it is one of our duties to not let anything happen to the humans."

The Egyptian stood, walking towards the now quiet speaker as he gazed at her approaching figure. Isis bent down on her knees, face dangerously close to the old man's. "I understand why you planted that chip thing in Ryou's head, but what I don't understand is why you didn't fucking tell me! Do you know how many times he cried out in pain from those damn visions? Too many times for my liking." She smiled at her son. "It hurt me like no other pain to know that I could do nothing to help him. And yet here you are saying you're the cause of that pain!"

Isis leaned in closer, her voice deadly. "Tell me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you now?"

Solomon gulped, fear evident in his eyes. "Because we can take the chip out."

YU-GI-OH

WHOO! Sorry if it's so short and if I made any mistakes! I don't know when I'll update again, but it will be soon… hopefully!

Demon Majick: Of course, I'll continue! Thankies!

Shinigami: Eh, I haven't revealed who Carrie's son is yet? Do you possibly think that you could tell me where you saw that? She was talking to all three because she said, "... your ass is mine..." Isis didn't want them to get the wrong ideas from those words. Sorry if I confused you! Thankies!

moocow33: -raises eyebrow- Moomoo? Oh, wow! Thankies!

DemonicMistress Kree-kun: I love demons! I don't know why everyone hates them... Cool way to come up with a name, though! Thankies!

Pharaoh Atemu's Angel: I know exactly how you feel! After trying to find the right one, I just decided to use my AOL screenname! That solved my problem! Thankies!

JadedKatrina: You know, your screenname sparked a Yu-Gi-Oh story in my head. Don't tell anyone but... -whispers- I have wrote the first chapter of the story! I hope you don't mind, but I'm using Katrina & Jade as characters names... I have always loved the name Katrina. In fact, my first daughter will be named Katrina Arden... Thankies!
