Okay, I will toy with your idea. Not sure how I'll do it yet, so I'll have
to figure something out, sorry Kia. Also, I am really being crazy with this
chapter, so beware. EMERGENCY! WARNING! THIS TAKES PLACE A WEEK AFTER THE
LAST CHAPTER!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kaiba looked at Amalthia sadly. She had been asleep for a week, and the doctors still didn't know why. Her fever was gone, but she wasn't. Mokuba was worrying himself to death. Though he wouldn't admit it, he was scared too.
'Why am I so afraid? I don't care for her. Do I?' he thought as he sat down beside her still form. Taking her hand, he started rubbing it gently. He could feel the bones clearly. 'I do care. I suppose I always have. Since I first found her. Oh, Amalthia. Please wake up soon.'
'I can not.' Amalthia's silverish voice echoed through his mind.
'WHAT!' Kaiba thought in alarm as he stared at her. She had moved at all. But he could have sworn.
'I am lost. I am floating, under water. It is so dark. Seto, please! Help me! I am so cold. It is getting darker.' the voice rang again, fear lacing through it.
'Lia, I'm here. Can you hear me? If you can, follow my voice.' He called out mentally as panic hit him. He couldn't lose her!
'Your voice is so faint. But I'm trying. I can see a little light now.'
'Keep trying. I'm here. I'm waiting.'
"Seto." a weak voice whispered beside him. His head shot up. There she was. Her head was turned towards him, a small grin across her face. The ice blue eyes were a little foggy, but the love there showed through clearly.
"Mokuba is with someone I don't know. Who are they?" Amalthia asked hoarsely just as Yami and Yugi Muto, Tea Gardner, and Joey Wheeler came in. Mokuba was fast asleep in Tea's arms.
"We found him asleep in the waiting room. The nurses said he had a friend here in this room." Tea said as she placed Mokuba in a chair nearby.
"Yes. Could you tell the a nurse nearby that Miss Shadow has awaken?" Seto asked as he gripped "Lia"'s hand tighter.
Yami noticed this action and smiled, "looks like Seto's icy heart has finally melted. Is this 'Miss Shadow' the one who did it?"
Amalthia weakly tried to sit up, but was immediately pushed back down by Seto. "Seto, I'm fine. Please, let me at least sit up." She protested weakly. Looking her straight in the eye, he gave up. Adjusting her bed, he helped her get comfortable before facing the group.
"I will ignore that comment for now, Yami."
They all started laughing. Amalthia started school with them later, as well as getting her own place to stay. She and Seto saw each other through high school and collage. After they both had graduated and Amalthia had become a well respected lawyer, Seto asked her to marry him. And they now live happily ever after.
What about Ms. Gem, you ask? She was sent to prison for child abuse, murder in cold blood, and robbery. (Remember? She was living off "Good Little Amy's" inheritance.)
**********
Changed my mind and cut this short. When will I ever right a story longer then 7 chapters, I'll never know. I'm going to start a chronicle series. It will be called "The Phoenix Chronicles". I am writing it in honor of my best friends: Amalthia, Amara, and Ariela Phoenix, also known as the Sisters Phoenix. They are triplets that look alike, but think and act very differently. It will be placed under Harry Potter and Lord of The Rings. I hope you'll read it. TTFN you all!
