DISCLAIMER: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, however…

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Tea: *struggling against huggy-jacket* Let me go evil people!

Yami: As I have no real emotions, I will simply grin smugly and summon the Dark Magician…

Tea: to free me?

Yami: no, to shake his finger at you. You know the author has control over this and frankly, I like seeing you in a huggy jacket. *laughs in that smug way*

Tea: why I oughta… *struggles*

Yami: "Oughta" what?

Tea: *growls*

Yugi: Hi guys!

Tea: Yugi! Save me!

Yugi: you've been reading too many romantic fanfics.

Triston: I'll save you Tea!

Tea: Okay!

Triston: Really?

Tea: Yes! Really!

Triston: Oh. To bad I was kidding…

Tea: *growls*

Yugi: *High-fives Triston* Guess what Triston?

Triston: What? *grins*

Yugi: You aren't the dumbest character on Yu-Gi-Oh anymore!

Triston: *frowns* I didn't beat Joey then.

Joey: *growls* Triston…

Yugi: No, you didn't beat Joey. You tied him.

Triston and Joey: What?

Triston: But… I thought I wasn't the dumbest…

Joey: *growls and jumps at Triston*

Yugi: *restraining him* No, you aren't the dumbest, neither is Joey.

Triston and Joey: What???!!!

Yami: Ah, I see where you are going with this…

Yugi: Really?

Yami: Yep!

Everyone: *Gasps*

Joey: Yami… spoke… in… modern…. words….

Triston: What just happened?

Everyone (but Triston) *facefaults anime style* Oh brother!

Yugi: Okay… sorry Triston… you ARE the weakest link. Goodbye! (I don't own that either)

Triston: *being escorted away by policemen* I really beat Joey!!!???

Everyone: *Facefaults again, anime style*

Author: Please… someone remind me why I do this again?

Yugi: Because you love sweet, angelic little me! *smiles sweetly*

Author: *growls* Yeah, whatever Yugi. Note to self: write a part about Yugi LOOSING that innocence before I wring his scrawny little neck.

Yugi: WHAT!!!!???? No way you can't do that to me I haven't told anyone my feelings for… *slaps hand over mouth and turns beat red*

Everyone: Oh….

Joey: Yugi's got a girls friend Yugi's got a girl friend…

Yugi: *mumbles* who ever said that?

Joey: Yugi's got a boy friend…

Yugi: WHAT!!!!???? *jumps on Joey and grinds him to a pulp*

Author: *smiles* Note to self: let Yugi run the show.

Joey: a little help here…

Yugi: *innocent, happy, oh-look-at-me-ain't-I-hot grin* Yeah… Let ME run the show!

Author: *rolls eyes* whateva…

Okay… I'm sorry if anyone doesn't enjoy this but… I like this… it's a way for me to get the sugar outa my system.

Chapter Four:

Five Red Cuts, Four Dead Family Members, Three Crazed Kidnappers, Two Run Away Hikaris and a Seto in a Helicopter

^^^^^^^^^ Joey's House, Domino City, Japan ^^^^^^^^^^^

Joey and Triston got to Joey's house out of breath. They put their hands together and closed their eyes, concentrating on getting through to Yugi. It didn't work.

"Okay guys… let's try again. Come on, we can do it for Yugi!" Tea cried.

"Yeah. We can do it fer Yug!" Joey added. The three went back to concentrating together. They saw in each other's minds… but what they saw was as they had never seen before…

^^^^^^^ The cell ^^^^^^^^^

'Now I feel like real crap. Those five cuts were deep and the rough bandages Yugi mad from my shirt make moving awkward and anything painful.' Yami glanced with a brotherly expression at his little Light, who was in a light dose. For him, the only way to heal was to sleep and let his dreams do the thinking. 'My little Hikari is an excellent doctor, so now at least, I am well enough to think about this Isis character. I think she was a part of my past, and I think this is important. But I also doubt she is of this world. I will get my answers soon but I want them now! I am an impatient person, this I know. That is how it has been for five thousand years…

^^^^^^ Isis's Chamber ^^^^^^

//Hikari?//

/Yeah Isis?/

//Oh, you are awake.//

/Yep! What's on your mind?/

//Something has been troubling me for a long time about the Pharaoh.//

/What?/

//Our pasts were together. I think it was wrong of me to involve Seto Kaiba.//

/Why?/

//I have something many Dark Souls want.//

/What does that have to do with Kaiba?/

Isis sighed and closed her eyes. //One word, Hikari. Mokuba.//

^^^^^^^ The Kaiba Helicopter ^^^^^^^

'I am having serious doubts about this Isis person. I know so little about her, but then I know less about that Yami. It will be fun to torture him as he has tortured me over the years. There is something about her and him that I can't place, from an ancient past I don't remember. Now I sound like that son of a bitch Yami. He knows something, and I'm going to get it out of him.'

^^^^^^^ Joey's House, Domino City, Japan ^^^^^^^^

"What da heck?" Joey wondered out loud.

"Yeah, what IS that?" Tea asked.

"I hear Yugi and Yami on the other side, but I don't know what they're saying!" Triston added. He tried to go through, but only got a nasty shock and was jarred back. Tea got the same thing. They were giving up hope…

^^^^^^^ Isis's Chamber ^^^^^^

//Hikari?//

/Yeah?/

//There was one thing I never told you about the pharaoh and me.//

/What?/

//He killed my family. My sister, my mother, my father, my brothers.//

/I know…/

//I was his slave.//

/So…/

//This will be hard to say, so I will send you my memory instead.//

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ISIS'S MEMORY ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The sixteen year old girl was taken from her home and brought before the Pharaoh in the early flooding of the Nile. She was slim as a reed, poised, and beautiful. This Pharaoh had his eye on her, and when she turned sixteen, she was his for the taking. This Pharaoh had violet eyes and spiked hair, and his tanned skin and muscular arms made him desirable as well. Of course, she was just a slave and this Pharaoh, like those before him, didn't like to spend the night alone…

^^^^^^^ Joey's House, Domino City, Japan ^^^^^^^^

Tea and Triston could hardly stand after their encounters with that thing. They had the idea it was targeting Yugi's friends because Tea, his childhood crush, had been wounded worse then Triston, a person he was never best friends with, so Joey, his best friend, was sure to be badly hurt. This was their last hope!

"What can we do!?" Tea said worriedly.

"There's only one thing ta do. I'm goin' in." Joey proclaimed.

"What?! No way Joey you can't!"

"Yeah, what are you talking about!?" Tea added

"Yug's my best friend. If it weren't for him, Serenity would be blind. I've gotta save him!" Seeing as he would not be moved, they let him go. As he ran through the mass however, the last thing they expected happened…

^^^^^^^^^ The Kaiba Helicopter ^^^^^^^^^^^

'Almost there. Okay, landing time! Oh I love this part.' Being able to torture someone free from penalties of law made him feel great and nothing was going to ruin it.

Slowly, Kaiba walked up the steps of an ancient stone castle…

^^^^^^^^^ Isis's Chamber ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

'He is here. Good.' //Hikari, I will finish the story later, alright?//

/Sure Isis./ 'That gives me time to think about you, Isis. Like why I haven't been able to come out in years, or what happened to you all those years ago…

^^^^^^^^^^Back in the Cell ^^^^^^^^^^^

//Yugi! Yugi! Wake up!//

/Yeah Yami?/ Yugi answered sleepily.

//I think we may have company.//

^^^^^^^^^ Threshold of the Stairs to the Prison ^^^^^^^^^^^

"Ah, you came after all, Seto Kaiba. Please, follow me."

"Of course I came. This is the day I've been waiting for since Yami beat me in Duel Monsters."

"Now, as you should know, they are separate."

"Really. That makes my job easier. Yugi reminds me of Mokuba."

"Well, separation gave Yami one hell of a temper."

"I think I can handle it."

"Ah. Well whatever you say, Setiroti." 'Setiroti where did that come from?'

"What did you call me?"

"Nothing, I am sorry. I have gotten very little sleep lately."

Now it was Kaiba's turn. "Ah."

And so they neared the cell that held Yugi and Yami… And another.

^^^^^^^^^^ Beyond the Dark Mass ^^^^^^^^^^^

'Where am I? What's going on? Where is Yugi? What is happening…'

^^^^^^^^^^^ Joey's house, Domino City, Japan ^^^^^^^

"Joey's gone!" Tea cried.

"Yeah I noticed. I hope he's okay…"

^^^^^^^^^^^ The Mountains of Mordia ^^^^^^^^^^

"The time has come to root out the Sorceress! Let us attack!" the King of all Mordians exclaimed.

"I have an idea, oh Great One!" a messenger said.

"What?"

"She has allegiance with Seto Kaiba, the multi-millionaire…"

"I know who Kaiba is." The King said growling. "In fact I would like nothing more then to kill him."

"Then let us kill two birds, no? We will kidnap the little Kaiba, Mokuba. We can lure the sorceress here with Kaiba and possibly others and you can kill them all, Your Greatness."

"That," the King said, rubbing his hands together, "is one hell of an idea."

^^^^^^^^^ Nowhere in particular ^^^^^^^^^^

'Something isn't right.' Yugi thought

'Yeah, I agree.' Answered a voice.

'Who's there? How did you get in my thoughts!?' the two shouted at once. 'Me? in your thoughts, no, you're in mine!' they said, still in unison.

'Who are you?' Yugi asked.

'The Hikari to Isis, and you?'

'The Hikari of Yami.'

'How do you suppose we are linked?'

'I don't know. Do you think Yami and Isis are?' Yugi wondered.

'No! After what your Yami did to Isis…'

'After what your Isis did to my Yami…'

'What?! Isis did nothing to Yami!'

'Yeah, she only let her guards rip him apart. What did Yami do to her?'

'From what I know he killed her family!'

'That must have been the past.'

'It was.' She answered thoughtfully. 'Isis has had me locked up for so long…'

'Really? And she never lets you…'

'Defend yourself?' She finished his sentence.

'Yeah!'

'Hey, what's your name?'

'My name is Aesil. And you?'

'Yugi.' They paused for a minute, then Yugi broke the silence. 'Hey Aesil? I like you a lot.'

'Me too Yugi.'

'Hey, I have an idea!' Yugi suddenly said.

'What?'

'Let's go on strike against our yamis!'

'Hey, good idea! We could run away… except I am one with her.'

'She's a spell caster, so you must be too!'

'I know you are, so let's try this out…' With a singular jolt, Aesil was free of Isis. 'I have the key! I'll let you out the back.'

'There is a back?'

'Yep!'

'Alright! Let's go!' The two Aibous slipped out the gate and into the world and whatever lay ahead.

^^^^^^^ The heads of Yami and Isis ^^^^^^^^

"Oh no! my Aibou!"

^^^^^^^^ In the sky above Yugi and Aesil's escape route ^^^^^^^^

'Ah, what have we here? Two susceptible little kids… I smell a fat reward…'

^^^^^^^ Outside the Kaiba Mansion ^^^^^^^^^^

'The little Kaiba's room! Soon they will be gone and KaibaCorp will be mine! Oh Mokuba-boy, here I come!' thought a certain inventor of duel monsters, mainly Pegasus.

'Ah, the littlest Kaiba's window! Soon that little brat will be mine!' Thought one of the King's thugs.

^^^^^^^^ Inside the Cell ^^^^^^^^^

'Something isn't right… AH!!!! You… but how…'
