PFM: ok, I think I've given you guys enough time to review, flame, hate and love me, so, here is the next chapter.

Marron: you're just evil...

PFM: why, thank you. ^_^

Marron
: -_-; that wasn't a compliment...

PFM: *blink*blink* then what was it?

Marron: never mind!

"Anthy  was...what?" Kaylynn demanded, but he lowered his gaze more, "fine!" she cried, making them all look at her, "keep your secrets! But I'm going to egypt to save them!" she pulled out her deck as her friends looked at her, then she found what she'd gone in there for and pulled it out, "Fairy King!" she cried, holding up the card, then the creature so named appeared in a swirl of glitter and mist, its colidascope wings shimmering, then Kaylynn turned to it, "can you fly me to Egypt please?" she asked sweetly, it nodded, then she turned her eyes to the three yamis and they narrowed dangerously, "if you three wanna sit here and sulk, you can. But I'll save malik! And ryou! AND anthy!" she snapped, enphisizing on the names of her friends-and her ex, "when we were together-before seto...-malik always promised to protect me, and even after seto came into the picture, malik promised that, as a friend, he would keep me safe...and the first time I saw ryou, I vowed to him I would protect him...cuz...i can feel something special in him...and he's my friend..." her eyes had watered and she looked about to cry, but she streghtened up and glared hard at the three boys in front of her, "and I'd die for anthy any day!" seto walked up next to her with a small smile on his face,

"baka...you can't do it alone, I won't let you." he said with a smile in her direction, she blinked at him then grinned,

"glory hog." She murmured, then she closed her eyes and shook her head a bit, "fine. Bakura, ishtaru! Yami! Any of you three losers coming with me and seto?" Bakura grinned and nodded, ishtaru following suit, though not grinning, yami stayed still, looking at the ground, "yami?" he looked up at her, "are you coming with me?" he looked down again, but then looked back up and nodded, a look of determination on his face, "great! Then let's go!"

Malik's tear filled eyes gazed over what had once been a city near Giza, he had been protected from the brain-washing by the ancient incantations connected to the pharaoh on his back-at least they came in handy for something, right? The dragon had given up on manipulating him through mind control and threatened his friend's lives to keep him loyal to him, malik was presently standing next to ryou, who was staring blankly ahead of him, every now and then he showed some signs of life but otherwise, he was hollow and he didn't do too much besides stand there and gaze. Malik wished he could wake ryou up, but, he couldn't think of any way that didn't involve injuring the frailer boy. He rubbed at his eyes to rid them of tears, making ryou look curiously, as though crying were something he'd never seen before, he blinked at the other boy and his eyes seemed to clear slightly. Malik stopped moving and looked down at him, ryou was staring fixedly into the lavender eyes that had locked with his own deep-brown ones,

"ryou?" malik started, turning and putting his hands on his friend's shoulders, "can you hear me?" ryou blinked slowly, but he nodded, he was breaking through the brain washing, malik smiled, hoping to reach his friend before it was too late-he and ryou having gone with the dragon and anthy having been left back at their dismal prison to brood and suffer.

Marron: I really didn't need to know that.

PFM: *blows audience a kiss* good night, everybody!
