*singing* They call me Slim Shady! I'm back, I'm back! That's why they call me Slim Shady. I'm back, I'm back! All my Eminem fans out there know where that came from! Ok sorry. *ahem* Here's the next chapter, where Joey, Tristan, and Yugi are introduced! Sorry, Tea and Serenity won't be in this fic. I don't like Tea too much, anyway, and Serenity gets on my nerves sometimes. But anyway, here's the chapter—enjoy!. Hopefully ... ^^;

Disclaimer: What would happen if I just decided not to say it this chapter? ... Hmmm ... No, I did that once before and I got skurred, so I'm gonna say it this time. I DON'T OWN YU-GI-OH!. Thank you. ^_^

"Come on, Joey, please, we really need your help!" Kea pleaded, talking into Kaiba's cell phone to the annoying New Yorker on the other end.
"Gimmie one good reason why I should help creepy Kaiba!" Joey said angrily.
Kea said, "Because! Even though Kaiba might not have been the nicest person to you, you HAVE to help! You just have to!"
"Why!" Joey demanded.
"Because! Nobody'll suspect you and it'll be easier for us to escape," Kea said.
"No!" Joey yelled. "There's no way I'm gonna help him! He can die fer all I care! I hope ya kill 'im yerself!"
Kaiba smirked when he saw Kea growling at the boy on the other end of the phone. She shot a glare at him before turning back to the phone and saying, "Listen here, Joey Wheeler, you're dealing with a five-year member of the Italian Mafia. I've got people in Domino City who want to kill me and Kaiba both. Sorry and all, but now that I called you about this, they could track you and try to kill you, too. And you're closer to them than me are. They have no idea where we are right now; they'll come after you first. Do you really want to risk your life on this?"
There was a period of silence on the other end of the line. Kea sat quietly, listening to Joey's breathing to assure her that he was still there. Finally, there came an annoyed, heavy sigh.
"Alright," Joey said. "Whaddoya want me tah do?"
Kea smiled and showed the thumbs up sign to Kaiba, who was sitting on the bed across from hers. She folded her legs underneath her and said, "Okay, Joey. You have a friend named Yugi that Kaiba told me about."
"What about Yugi?" Joey asked quickly.
Kea shrugged. "Kaiba told him what happened today, round and about. Now that we've got you behind us, I figure we'll ask Yugi's help, too."
"What! Dere's no way I'm gettin' my friends into dis!" Joey said. "I didn't agree tah dat!"
"Joey, come ON!" Kea nearly screamed. "The more of us there are, the better chance we have getting out alive. Do you have any other friends that could help us?"
"No, no, please no," Kaiba groaned when he heard Kea ask the question. "Not Tristan, PLEASE not Tristan."
"Yeah," Joey said into the phone. "His name's Tristan."
Kea raised an eyebrow at Kaiba. "Tristan," she said. She laughed when Kaiba rolled his eyes and dropped his head into his hands. "Good, Joey," she said. "Now here's the deal. Lay low, say nothing to anybody after I hang up with you. I'll call you back in twenty minutes to let you know what's going on."
"Alright, alright," Joey said. "Bye."
"Bye."
Kea flipped the cell phone shut and tossed it to the other bed next to where Kaiba was sitting. He looked at it briefly, then set his gaze on Kea. "Why did you have to bring them into it?"
"Because they're gonna help us," Kea replied, shrugging simply. She sat and studied Kaiba's silent features for a moment, then softened her voice and said, "Hey, we'll check up on Mokuba soon, okay? I promise we'll get to him as soon as we can."
When Kaiba looked up and saw the sincerity on Kea's face, he mumbled a quick 'thanks', then went to turn his cell phone off.
"Okay," Kea said, losing the sweetness in her voice almost instantly. "We need to discuss a plan. What are we gonna do."

Okay, I meant to get into more interesting stuff for this chapter, but I don't know what to do! PLEASE GIVE ME SUGGESTIONS!!! I need suggestions! I can't update until I know what can happen! PLEASE GIVE ME SUGGESTIONS!!! I'll put you in the story if I decide to use your suggestion! Please! *begging* Review, please!

Y'know ... no one seemed to realize that I said it was one o'clock in the morning last chapter. I realized this when I was rereading it a few minutes ago. AFTER I posted it, of course ... That would mean that Yugi called Kaiba's cell phone at one o'clock in the morning ... yeah, let's just pretend that it was later that day. Because they did leave Kea's house at about eight in the morning, so let's pretend that this happened at about 4 or 5pm. ^_^ ;; Thank you!!
