Pain
The Truth.
Seto rubs the area just above his eyebrow. This was bad. He didnt' expect this. He didnt' have a plan to counter this. Maybe this would solve itself. But that seldom happened with him. Kaleb takes a step toward Seto. "Seto, I'm sorry. I'll figure something out to solve this for you. It is my fault, so I'll figure something out. Trust me Seto. I will." Yes! Maybe he'll believe him and allow him to do this and then he could send Yami somewhere else, never to be found again by Seto Kaiba.
But Lady Luck never did send a smile his way.
"No, I'll do it. You need to just stay out of this. Your job is over. I'll pay you for what you have done." Seto turns to leave, going the same way he came. "And I better not find out that you have lied to me, Kaleb."
Kaleb bows to Kaiba, muttering something unaudable to Kaiba. "What was that, Kaleb?"
"I said I'm sorry, for messing this up." Kaleb lied. He had to think of something fast. Maybe if he shifted back to Bakura, he could warn Yami and tell him to leave and go back to his friends, but, then, would he take the heat for him, if they got caught? Would either take it, or bail out on each other? He dreaded the thought of what he'd put him through. He mentally shivers. Kaleb, hoping not to be noticed, slips out through the bushes behind him. He alters his corse of direction, changing into Bakura again, and goes to Yami.
He finds him, waiting for him to return. Quickly, he grabs Yami's hand and runs the fastest he can without causing Yami to fall while doing so.
"Bakura, what is going on? Why are we running?" Yami asks, not out of breath yet, yet they had been running for a few minuets now(Athletic, huh?). Bakura sighs, looking behing him for a second. He decides to take him back to his friends personally a long time ago, but he didn't think it would be this soon. But things don't always go your way, so he had to ephisise. "Uhh... Well, I'll tell you as soon as we find Anzu and the rest of them." Kaleb explains. He had also decided to tell Anzu, Jonouchi, and Hlroto. (When did he have the time to think all of this up? As soon as he started running.)
* * *
Seto searches for the missing Kaleb, looking through every bush, every tree, and every cliff. But yet, he hadn't seen him since he was told that he had killed Yami. He thought of what he could tell his..Yami's friends when he didn't come back without him. He could tell them the truth, but that would just farther complecate things. Things are complicated enough as they were. So Seto decides to tell them that Yami and Yugi decided to have nothing to do with them and wished for them to never contact him, unless he contacted them first. That would work. Maybe.
He grumbles as thorns tear at his silver jacket, scratching his skin slightly, barely making a mark.

Anzu pushed as stick through the fire, shifting the wood inside the glowing flames. She still despritely missed Yugi. And for the first couple of days and nights she had imagined that she heard him, just outside her tent. But no matter how fast she got there, he wasn't. She barely sleeped anymore, barely ate, and had now become the negitive, anti-social one of the group. She hated herself, but couldn't bring herself to do anymore then what she was. Jonouchi and Hlroto had tried to cheer her up, but soon enough had also given up. This was all happening because of that bastard Set...
Her thoughts are interupted by a *very* familar blonde being shoved through the bushes, landing on his face, muttering a small "Itai." before picking himself up. At first, Anzu blaimes it on her mind and heart playing tricks on her again, but she quickly discards that idea when Bakura also cames through the bushes, helping the blonde up.
"Anzu!!" Yugi says, excited to see her again. "Y-Yugi? Is that really you?" Anzu stutters. Yugi gives a small nod, just in time to see Anzu jump up and pounce on him. "Oh Yugi!! I never thought I would see you again!! Why are you here anyway?" "I-" "Oh, it doesn't matter, what matters is that you're here and Seto Kaiba isn't and.." She looks up at Bakura. "What are you doing here?" Yugi dusts himself off as Anzu stands up. "I brought him back." Bakura explains. Anzu then wraps him in a warm embrace, though an almost violent one, saying "Arigatou, arigatou, arigatou, arigatou!!!!" Jonouchi and Hlroto open the tent they share, jaws hitting the ground. "Yug!!" "Yugi!"
"Look, I'd like to stick around and witness this happy little reunion that I've created, but I really need to expain some things and I don't have that much time to do so." Quickly, he sheads his cover, returning to his original self. "Now, first,-" Jonouchi interupts him. "What the?! What happened to Bakura?" "Bakura's fine." Bakura, the *real* Bakura steps through the bushes. "In fact, I'm right here." Kaleb turns to him, then back to Yugi and his friends. "As I was saying. You and Yugi need to leave this island as quickly as possible. If Seto finds that Yugi is still alive, he will not only be totally pissed, but he will hunt all of you down untill he finds me, then he'll kill me. Next, is that, Seto has been cheating on Yami and Yugi the intire time with me, but only because that was the only way to pay for my services. Anyway, Bakura knows about all of this, I planned on using his form to get Yugi out of this, and then I ended up lieing to Kaiba about a death of Yugi. He is supposidly under the waves of a cliff by now. Now, get out of here. If you are in trouble, I'll contact you and warn you, but do not try to-"
"Kaleb!!" An angered voice rings violently through Kaleb's ears as he silently prays to the Goddess that it isn't the only person it could be. He quickly turns around, just in time to see Yami take off his puzzle and give it to Anzu who naturally would keep it behind her.
"Yes...Seto?" Kaleb whispers, bowing to Kaiba. "You lied to me!! You said that he was dead." Seto says, pointing at Yugi. Kaleb quickly thinks, putting his skills of lieing to the test. "But, Seto-Sama. I didn't. I said I killed Yami, not Yugi. I took the puzzle and threw it away. Not the body. You see, you missunderstood. I should have been clearer, Seto-Sama."
"Yes you should have. You nearly lost you head, Kaleb. Come on. I found a new use for you." Seto Kaiba motions for Kaleb to follow him. Kaleb nods his goodbyes to Yugi and his friends, worry showing clearly though his eyes.
Fushigi- Well.. Ha! Poor Kaleb! But, then, this was partly his fault!
