Isis closed eyes again; her millennium item glowed again, this time, bright
enough for everyone to see. The rest of the millennium items glowed dully,
as Isis said, 'Some one is controlling him.'
Everyone turned to look at Seto.
'I'm innocent.'
Joey used his scale to find out if it was true. He nodded, 'He did not do this.'
They turned back to look at Sara's father.
Isis inspected the man again, and she uttered a word. Sara's father glowed dully and the flare of light disappeared. 'There is something I feel that I do not know what it is. Could one of you come help me?'
Yami strode forward, and his millennium puzzle glowed, before Yami took a step back, 'That's the power of the Alter of Truth.'
'You mean the Alter that was stolen today?' Duke said carelessly.
All the eyes turned to him.
'Hey, Who told you the Alter was stolen?' Seto said suspiciously, raising an eyebrow.
'Yeah, who told you it, was stolen? I thought only two guards and we advisors knew.' Serenity said, a step behind Seto.
All eyes were on Duke, 'I-I-um-I-I' he stammered.
'Well? Out with it!' That was Joey.
'I-I-I saw it missing!' he replied.
'He lies!' Isis cried. 'He Lies! Give us back the Altar of Truth!'
'Father,' Yami growled, 'Did you do this or not?'
'I did not!' he denied.
'You did!' cried Mai. 'How could you!'
'Fine! I did,' he cried, while grabbing the nearest person to him, which was Serenity, and held a knife to her throat, 'So what are you going to do about it?' he dared them. He was holding Serenity so tight she could barely breathe.
'Help.me,' she managed to stammer between breathes.
'Serenity!' Seto cried.
'S-S-Seto! J-Joey!' she implored.
'You come one step further and she dies.' Duke said menacingly, who held the knife even closer to her throat.
'Don't you dare,' Seto growled, millennium rod glowing brightly with his eye forming on the top of his head.
'Won't I?' Duke growled back. 'So this is your weakness, High Priest, a girl, hostage. So this is your weakness.'
'At least I'm not a coward, like you who has to hid behind someone else.'
'Wouldn't you?'
'I wouldn't.'
'And why wouldn't you?'
'Because I wouldn't sink so low as to the place where you are. And you will pay for that if you didn't know.'
Dark clouds started to cover the sun, and a shower of rain started to fall down lightly. The raindrops dripped down everyone's chin, splashing to the floor. Lighting sparked everywhere, and thunder bellowed through the skies.
'You hear that Duke? You have angered the gods.' Seto cried.
'Gods? What gods? I don't hear any gods!' Duke answered.
'You are a fool to say that.' Malik said, red faced with fury.
'Do I care?' Duke said menacingly.
'You would,' Seto said when a clap of thunder sounded.
