My inspiration is back thanks to those who helped me! Free pookie for everyone!!! Anyways, just so you're not confused, everything here was happening at the same time well not exactly the same time, but you get the idea, right? Now on with the fic!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NO OWN YU-GI-OH!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TRISTEN'S POV:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AHHH! You moron Tristen! Coming out like that saying that they could use his place for the base of their operation! What if they start to snoop around? It either Joey or Yami logs onto my computer, they'll find out my little secret! Damn it! What an amateur move! Wait a minute! Why the hell am I so worried? Yami and Joey would NEVER do that! They trust me to much because they would never think of accusing me of trying to kill Yugi! They think I'm his friend! In reality I am his worst enemy. If things go according to plan, by midnight tonight, little Yugi will be eliminated!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
NORMAL POV:
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Parking his motorcycle in front of Karen's Karaoke Bar, Tristen Taylor strolled in the front door, his hands in his pockets giving him a cool, collective image.
Now to have a little fun while I wait!

PIZZA PARLOR
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Joey Wheeler was having no such luck at the pizza parlor as he interrogated the owner for over twenty minutes.
"Ah man! Yous sure 'bout dat right?"
The owner nodded the frustration clearly showing on his face as he maintained his cool against this guy.
"Yes. I wasn't paying attention to your friends' little fairy tale come true. I DO have other customers to attend to you know. Although that white haired kid seemed suspicious."
"Who? Ryou or Bakura?"
"Whoever it was that destroyed half of the games in the Game Center!"
"Oh that would be Bakura. But why would you think he was suspicious?
"Because he's a trouble-making punk. Hurting people is probally his style."
Joey frowned the anger now growing into him. True Bakura was a trouble maker and it was no secret that he did hurt people once in awhile, but he would never kill them. He may be dark but he's not evil. Gritting his teeth, Joey thanked the owner.
"You're welcome!"
The owner replied all to grateful as he left the blonde hair teen.
Frustrated, Joey took a seat at one of the booths and stared out the window.
"Well this was a dead end! I hope Yami and Tristen are havin better luck den me!"
Not resisting the smell of the the fresh baked pizza, Joey decided to order a pie.
"Eatin' a pie might help me think better! Food always helps!"

PARK:
~~~~~
Kneeling down next to the area where he and the assasin met, Yami was careful to search the entire area. Combing through the grass in attempt to find any clue that would help find the man or woman responsible for hiring that mad-man in the first place to kill his partner.
I don't even know what I'm searching for!
Yami thought frustrated as he punched his fist into the ground.
UGH! Damn it! I need some kind of clue to go with! You can't solve a puzzle with out the pieces!
Taking in a deep breath, Yami continued to crawl around on the ground searching, refusing to give up.

AT THE MANSION:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"While you are here Yugi, you need to know only two things. One, you are allowed to roam freely and two, STAY OUT OF MY WAY! The only reason I'm allowing you to be here is because you are friends of Joey's."
Turning around, Kaiba walked away from the tri-colored boy. As he was walking out, he was met by his younger brother, Mokuba.
"Mokuba, we have guest for a few days."
"Oh really? Who is it?"
Looking past him, Mokuba gasped in shock.
Yugi Motou? My brother invited Yugi Motou to spend a couple days here with us? Something MUST be up.
Seeing the confused look on his face, Kaiba quickly replied.
"There were certain misfortunes that had occurred causing our guest to be here. But it won't be for long I assure you. Now if you'll excuse me little brother, I have business to attend to."
Walking past him, Kaiba left leaving Mokuba and Yugi along. The two boys looked on at each other smiling a friendly hello smile before Mokuba fully stepped into the room.
"So you're going to be staying here for awhile huh?"
"Yeah."
Yugi replied not sounding all that thrilled about it.
"You don't sound all that thrilled about it."
"Huh? Oh I'm sorry Mokuba. I am really. It's just.....just that well Yami and our friends are out there searching for an unknown enemy and I should be there with them helping. But instead I have to stay here and cowar! UH! Why must I be so weak and defenseless? Huh?!?"
"An unknown enemy? Is someone after you guys again?!?!?"
"No, this time someone is after only one of us."
"And it's you huh? That's why you are here. Yami's afraid you'll get hurt."
"Yeah."
Yugi answered nodding.
"He talked Kaiba into letting me stay here for a couple of days while he, Joey and Tristen try to find my assaliant."
"I see."
"And I know your brother hates me and doesn't want me to be here. He said so himself. But because Joey asked him, he reluctantly agreed. So not only do I feel helpless I also feel unwelcome."
"That's not true Yugi. None of it is. You're just being too hard on yourself. Yeah so it's no big secret that my brother doesn't like you. That doesn't mean he hates you. It's just that he still can't cope with the idea that someone is a better duelist then he is. He's always had to be number one in everything. He had to be. That was the only way he and I were able to stay out of the orphanages. After he won a chess game against a man named Gozaburo. The man had no choice but to adopt me as well. You see at first, Gozaburo only wanted Seto, but my brother would not leave unless I went with him. So he challenged the man to a game of chess saying if he won then the man would have to adopt both of us. As you can see, my brother won. Otherwise, I might still be in that orphanage. You have to learn to read between the lines Yugi. My brother may appear to be cold and heartless but in fact he's not. He's warm, caring and will do anything for the ones he cares about. Even for you. He may not like you, but he respect you Yugi. And maybe one day that respect will turn into friendship."
Sighing, Yugi smiled faintly sending a unspoken message to Mokuba. {Thank you.} Mokuba quickly caught it giving him the thumbs up signal.
"But I still can't stay here and just wait!"
With a determined look in his eyes, Yugi set his eyes forth at the door.
"Yugi, what are you planning on doing."
"Mokuba I really appreciate what you and your brother are trying to do but I just can't sit here and wait. I have to find Yami! If my assailant mistakes Yami as me, he'll be in serious trouble or even worse. I don't think I could live with myself if something were to happen to him or to any of my friends. I HAVE to leave here and find him!"
"But Yugi, if someone IS really after you, you'd be much safer here!"
"And that would leave the people I care the most about out in the open! NO! I won't take that risk! You can't keep me here Mokuba. Neither you nor your brother can. I am free to leave when I wish! I have to find my friends and help them!"
"What you are saying is suicidal Yugi! What if the assailant finds you before you find your friends?"
"I have to take that risk. At least if he DOES find me first then maybe he'll leave my friends alone."
"YUGI!!!!!"
"I'm sorry Mokuba but my mind is made up!"
Brusting past Mokuba, Yugi quickly made his way to the door.
"Thank you, for everything Mokuba."
Yugi replied sounding more like a good-bye then a thank you as he exited the room making his way out of the mansion.
"Good luck Yugi."
Mokuba replied having a sense of dread come over him.
Oh I hope he'll be alright and that I made the right decision of just letting him go like that. I shouldn't be to worried right? Right?!?! I mean it's probally just some punk who wants to duel him and win his puzzle or beat the crap out of him. It's nothing serious or anything, is it?!?!
Eyes widen, Mokuba ran after his small friend only to be too late as he stared out from the door that Yugi had left open in his haste to leave the mansion to find no one.
"Please be careful!"
Mokuba whispered as he reluctantly walked back in closing the door behind him.

That's it for now. Will Yugi find Yami or will he run into Tristen? Only time and reviews will tell!
