Chapter Thirty-Five
Alyssa was crying silently as she rode in the back of the car with Sieg Harry. He'd had his way with her and that seemed to make him happier. She hated the way he looked at her and wished that she could have her evil Yami back for just a few moments. There would be no looking at her like that anymore.
You shouldn't think such things, even in this kind of situation. She would do much worse than kill him…she would try to take over the world and kill almost everyone in the world…
I don't care right now…He wasn't supposed to see…he wasn't supposed to…
She couldn't even form her own thoughts without breaking into renewed tears. She heard Sieg chuckle.
Alyssa, let me out. I want you to have some quiet time. I can handle this bastard.
Thank you…
Alyssa's eyes flashed gold briefly and then she stopped crying. Her head snapped up and she met Sieg's gaze evenly.
"So, you enjoy raping girls, do you?" she asked in a hard voice. "You disgust me."
"You have ze opposite effect on me, Mademoiselle," Sieg Harry replied with a smirk.
"If you were in my time, you would be destroyed so that no trace of you remained. Not even your name." She smirked. "All of your family would be eliminated and everyone would forget who you were in a matter of days."
Sieg's eyes narrowed. "No one would touch my brother."
"If we were in my time, you would have no brother." She slid her bound hands under her legs and sat them on her lap, rolling her shoulders. "I don't care how innocent he is or how much my friends think of him, he is still born from scum."
"No! My family is held in ze highest esteem!" Sieg exclaimed, clearly getting mad. "Just like yours!"
"Everyone will know what kind of monster you are as soon as you are captured for your crimes. Everyone will look upon the Harry name in disgust. You will lose business contacts. Your brother will have to start from the bottom of the corporate chain because of your actions. Everything you have now will be stripped away from you."
"Silence!" Sieg snarled, striking her across her face, but she didn't even flinch. "You know nothing!"
"You're wrong. I know everything. I know what is written in your future and therefore I know that you don't have one."
Sieg chuckled. "And Kaiba has none either. Not as long as I have this."
Sieg showed her a handgun and Alyssa hissed at the sight of it. Sieg held it up and aimed it at her chest.
"I have to make sure zat no one can talk of what has transpired here. Kaiba and your uncle will not see another day."
"What's to stop me from telling then?" Alyssa demanded, sticking her chin out defiantly. "You have no one to watch over me who can control me anymore. I will be able to get away and you'll never be able to stop me."
"I know where your friends are and I can have my men take them out one by one if you even try to run away." He smirked and set the gun down next to him, leaving one hand on it. "Do not think zat I have forgotten to plan ahead because I can assure you zat I have not."
Alyssa stuck her tongue out of him as the car pulled to a stop. Sieg glanced out the window and smirked.
"Come along Mademoiselle," he commanded, opening the door. "Destiny waits."

Kaiba glanced at his watch when it beeped before looking down the alley again. It was exactly one hour since Sieg Harry had contacted him and he saw no sign of the pink haired man. He had called Pegasus about the meeting but the man was in no condition to face Sieg Harry or even leave his mansion at the moment. So Kaiba held two briefcases – one his and the other was one sent by Pegasus – and waited.
"I'm glad to see zat you decided to meet me Monsieur Kaiba," Sieg's voice said as he moved out of a building with Alyssa secured in his arm. "And without ze police involved as well."
"Don't consider that a sign in your favor," Kaiba said, staring at Alyssa and noticing that there were streaks left behind by tears on her face. "They've probably already been contacted by Pegasus."
"I have no doubt zat they are already on their way," Sieg said, not hiding the fact that he had a gun pointed at Alyssa's side. "Something tells me zat ze man I employed has betrayed me. No matter. He shall pay soon enough." He gestured at the briefcases with his gun. "Zat is what I demanded, no?"
"Two billion dollars from me and Pegasus, as you demanded," Kaiba muttered, setting the briefcases on the ground. "Along with the deeds to the projects that you claim I've stolen from you."
"Slide them towards me."
"First give me Alyssa."
"Oh no…I am not falling for zat trick. You will give me what I want first and then, I will give you what you desire."
Kaiba's eyes narrowed further when Sieg pulled Alyssa closer. He set the briefcases down and kicked them away from him. They stopped an arm's length away from Sieg and Alyssa. Sieg gestured at Kaiba's right hand that had not moved away from his pocket.
"Also, slide zat gun of yours towards me too. You will have no use for it if you wish to keep your rose bud safe…"
Kaiba reached into his pocket and withdrew the gun. For a moment he considered doing the heroic thing by taking a shot at Sieg Harry, but he knew that Alyssa would be in danger if he missed. He frowned and slid the gun away from him.
Sieg laughed and pushed Alyssa away from him. She fell onto her stomach near the gun and stared at it for a moment before looking at Kaiba urgently.
"Run Kaiba!" she screamed.
"Not without you," Kaiba said, taking a step towards her, but he stopped when he realized that Sieg Harry had the gun trained on him.
"Actually, you are not leaving at all Kaiba," Sieg declared with a maniacal grin. "And I can't just let your rose bud leave either. She was so sweet to taste zat I can not let her out of my grip ever again."
"You touched her?" Kaiba barked.
Alyssa's eyes swam with tears and she quickly bowed her head to hide them from Kaiba. "Kaiba, please run…Just run…"
Kaiba's hand clenched into fists. "I'm not leaving you. I'm never leaving you alone with this creep again!"
"You will not be around for our wedding night Kaiba," Sieg said, tilting his head to one side. "For on zat night, I will have merged my company with zat of Pegasus and ze Harry Empire shall arise. Your company will fall under mine as your little brother signs ze deeds over to my little brother and soon, he will be forgotten just as you will be."
"Alyssa will never marry the likes of you!" Kaiba spat.
"Alyssa will marry me once she learns zat her friends have a limited time left on zis planet! Everyone she knows now has so little time on zis planet! And ze only way to save them is by marrying me!"
Alyssa looked at Kaiba through a curtain of hair, her eyes pulsing with a gold light. "Kaiba please leave. Alyssa – Alyssa will be all right if you just leave…"
Kaiba shook his head. "I'm not leaving."
Sieg – who had been continuing his speech about what he was going to do with Alyssa after Kaiba was gone – stopped talking and smirked. "Ah, here I am talking about plans for ze future and I have yet to set them in motion. Goodbye Kaiba."

Carrie blew a strand of hair out of her face while Yugi called the police. There were a dozen burly men attacking her, Yugi, Joey, and Tristan. Duke was under the pile screaming for salvation after Carrie had mistakenly attacked him when he came in from the street moments earlier.
"Yugi, stop calling the police! They're unreliable!" Carrie screamed at him over Duke's cries to hundreds of different gods.
"Shh! They can hear you!" Yugi warned, ducking in between the legs of one the burly men who charged at him.
Carrie smirked. "AHH! HELP ME! I'M CUTE AND THESE MEN ARE ATTACKING ME! I AM VERY PROTECTIVE OF MY BODY SO IF YOU GIVE A DAMN YOU'LL SAVE ME FROM THEIR PATHETIC BLOWS! GET AWAY FROM THE DOUGHNUTS AND SAVE A FRIGHTENED WHITE CHICK!" She smiled at Yugi. "That better?"
"No. Not really," Yugi muttered.
Carrie shrugged. "I can't please everybody." Then she returned to pounding a guy's face into the counter. "Right guy? Oh wait! You can't speak cuz I knocked all your teeth out! So sorry. NOT!"
"Will you stop yammering over there?" Tristan glared over at them as he held two men in a headlock. "This is kinda serious!"
Carrie rolled her eyes and dropped the man she was holding in time to see Yugi bring the phone down on a guy's head. The phone of course was broken by the guy's extremely hard head, but the guy was knocked out.
"Wow Yugi. I didn't know you had that in you," Carrie commented with a proud smile. "But can you keep it up?"
"Um…no." Yugi then dove behind the counter and made himself as small as possible only to have a guy limp behind it in an attempt to get away from Tristan. "SHIT!"
Carrie laughed as she saw Yugi jump very high in the air and then tackle the man around the legs. They quickly vanished behind the counter and Carrie was distracted by another man, so she didn't see what happened next.
"You know, this is kind of easy," Joey commented, dropping a man on top of Duke as Duke managed to get out of the pile. (Duke: "SHIT!") "I wonder where they came from."
"Beats me." Tristan said.
"Ooh! I have a theory!" Carrie exclaimed, jumping up and down.
"Oh crap," Tristan muttered, rolling his eyes as he too deposited his guys on Duke, therefore crushing Duke and making the boy pass out. "Let's hear it."
"Well…these guys were sent by Alyssa's kidnapper. His idea is that if he can make Alyssa think that we're in danger that she'll do everything he wants. And if she doesn't…he'll have us killed one by one until she finds the need for new friends so he can repeat the process all over again," Carrie stated, crossing her arms.
"Did you happen to glance in the future or something?" Yugi demanded, popping out from behind the counter.
"No. I was just thinking about what I would do if I decided to kidnap somebody attractive and rich…" Carrie looked at Yugi. "Sorry…Did you win?"
"He's sleeping on my foot," Yugi complained, wincing.
"Well, kick him off then."
"He's sleeping on BOTH feet."
Carrie groaned. "You are hopeless."
He's a wuss.
Shut up!
Joey peeked out of the shop when he heard sirens. "Hey! They only sent two cars!"
"Police are idiots," Carrie stated. "They can't do math. That's how they got the job. Duh." She looked at Yugi again. "Did you tell them how many men there are?"
"I told them there were twelve. Obviously they didn't listen."
Tristan looked around the shop. "Didn't Duke come in here?"
"Haven't seen him," Carrie lied, stomping on Duke's hand. "Why don't you go and greet the police. Actually, I think I will. I'm cuter than all of you."
Carrie bounded over to the door and put on a hysteric face. "Please! Help me! I knocked the guys out with my friends and now I don't what to do!"
The police pushed past her and studied the shop. They stared at Yugi, Tristan, and Joey in amazement for a moment when they saw the pile of guys on the floor (and the feet of the man behind the counter).
"You guys took out all of these bigger guys?" one of the policemen asked, scratching his head.
"Actually, she did most of the work," Joey admitted, pointing at Carrie.
Carrie smiled warmly. "Want me to put these guys in the back of your cars for you?"
"What about that guy?" another policeman asked, pointing at a squirming Duke.
"Ah, there he is," Carrie smirked. "You can take him away too."
"CARRIE!" Tristan, Joey, and Yugi exclaimed, staring at her.
"What did I say? What did I say?" Carrie asked innocently.
Tristan shook his head and looked at the police officers as they began handcuffing the burly men. "Why did they send only two cars?"
"Most of the force is on the move towards an abandoned part of town," one of the police officers said. "Apparently they got a tip on the kidnapping of Ms. Pegasus through the man that was hired to kidnap her. Something big is supposed to happen down there or so they say."
Tristan looked at Yugi. "I have to go now."
Yugi nodded. "I can't stop you."
"Go where?" Carrie asked. "If you think that you can go to where Alyssa is you're stupid! There is no way you'll be able to get close enough to do anything to save her. Just let the crummy police do their job as best as they can. We can sue them later if Alyssa dies."
Joey edged towards her with a nervous face. "You do realize that we're in the presence of the crummy police, don't you?"
"Yes."
"You do realize that they can arrest us?"
"Yeah."
"Do you want to get us arrested?"
"Aw…Are you afraid of becoming someone's -"
"Carrie don't even say that!" Yugi commanded, looking mortified.
Carrie smirked and walked out of the shop. "See ya! I'm going to go watch the show!"
She snapped and Uria appeared out of nowhere and she got on his back. With a wave, she took off on his back and disappeared into the sunset.

Nicholas Shame looked up when the police officer in the driver's seat asked him which way they should go. He answered in a mumble, looking back down at his feet.
They won't make it in time, he told himself with a sad heart. She'll see her uncle and the man she loves get killed right in front of her…She'll lose her mind and then she'll be forced to make that bastard her husband…Why did I let myself get mixed up in this?
A small meow caught his attention and he saw a blue kitten sitting in the seat next to him.
"What are you doing here?" he asked.
It meowed again and then rubbed against his leg. He saw the glint of a collar and touched the tags.
Alyssa…
"We'll make it in time, right?" he asked the kitten.
The kitten nodded and vanished in a wisp of a blue flame. With renewed hope, Nicholas held his head up high and continued to direct the stupid police officers towards their destination. He prayed to the gods above that they would indeed make it there in time.

Kaiba took a backwards step when he realized that the gun was aimed at his chest. He knew that he wouldn't make it if Sieg managed to get the shot. And he knew Sieg would.
"Alyssa, get out of here if you can," Kaiba said, holding his hands up in surrender. "I can hold him off so you can get a head start."
Alyssa shook her head. "I'm not leaving you."
"How noble you two are to stand zere with ze love for ze other burning in your hearts for all to see," Sieg commented, cocking his gun. "But it is not enough. I will have what is rightfully mine and you will go to ze Shadow World to rot for an eternity Kaiba. Goodbye, my rival."
A gun was fired and the world seemed to freeze as tears poured from Alyssa's eyes.
