"How're we gonna get outta this one Yug?"
"I don't know Jou."
"There isn't a way out," Honda said.
"There has to be," Yugi said, "There's always a way."
"Yugi, life's not like those puzzles you solve. There isn't always a way to figure it out."
"You wrong, it is just like a puzzle. You concentrate at one place at a time and when you find something you don't need till later you put it aside 'til you do need it. You just need to be smart enough to know what to do and when to do it just like you need to be smart enough to know what pieces go where and when to put them on the puzzle."
"But there's not always an way, puzzle were made to be solved-"
"So was life." The conversation ended there as their captor walked over to them.
"Hello, my name is Bakura. You will not be here for very long to call me that though. I have heard that there were soldiers looking for the prince and I could give you to them, for a price."
"You know who the prince is?"
"Yes, I do know that you're the prince shorty. My men are out looking for the soldiers that are looking for you." With that said Bakura left the five captives. Yugi sat down looking very sad.
"It's okay Yug, we'll protect you," Honda said. Yugi looked out of the bars. His face lit up as if he had a plan.
"What, Yugi?"
"Look!" He whispered. His friends looked to where he was pointing and saw a dagger. "Bakura must have dropped that."
"It's too far for any of us to reach though," Anzu commented.
"That stick isn't," Yugi said pointing to a relatively long stick that lay right next to the bars.
"What can a stick do?" Jou asked.
"Don't you realize that we can get the dagger using the stick?"
"Oh yeah, now I see." Ryou stuck his hand out of the wooden bars and got the stick. He passed it to Yugi who poked it out of the cage to get the dagger.
"We should wait 'til night to get out. Everyone will be asleep then," Yugi said.
"That sounds like a good idea as long as the soldiers don't come before then."
"Let's hope our luck holds."
*~*~*~*~*
"You found the prince?"
"Yes, I can show you if you want."
"Looks like our luck didn't hold Yug"
"What are we going to do now?" Anzu asked worriedly.
"I'll figure it out," Yugi said. Kaiba came over to the five friends to make sure the prince was one of them.
"We've found you at last. You thought you could escape fate, but in the end you're destined to be a slave with the rest of your friends."
"You must know that I will not just hand them over to you, there is a price that you must pay to get them," Bakura said.
"What's the price?"
"Fifty gold pieces for all of them together."
Seto turned to Mokuba, who was standing nest to him, and said, "Mokuba, take some soldiers and go to Malik and tell him this price, ask him if this would be a deal."
"You got it." Mokuba hurried off to do as ordered.
*~*~*~*~*
Mokuba was expected to arrive back with Malik's answer by the next day's afternoon. The five friends were not very lucky since this time they were guarded and so they couldn't escape. All they could do now is was wait for their fate to play out. Little did they expect what happened next.
A shadowy figure entered the camp and began to walk over to the five friends.
"Who goes there?" The figure didn't answer, he just continued to walk toward the wooden cage. The guard reached for his sword, but before he could get it a dagger hit him in the heart and he fell motionless on the ground. The figure walked up to the captives and took out another dagger. Yugi, who was the only one still awake, backed away.
"Wake your friends." The figure said in a deep voice. Yugi did as what he told him to as the figure cut the rope that held the cage together. "Follow me." They followed seeing that he was helping them.
The stranger led them into the forest without anyone interfering. Yugi guessed he had killed the other guards that were on duty at the time. They finally came to a lake. They got on a boat and began going to the small island that lay in the center of the lake.

I've been getting less and less time on the computer now. Everyone has projects at the end of the year so the computer is always taken. If that wasn't the case then this chapter would have been up yesterday
Thank you all reviewers
