Geno looked over at Kaikou, who laid on the back seat of the van. He sighed, and then turned back to the road.

"So, Geno, you did the nasty with Raia's mom? Does that make you Seto's dad?"

Geno turned and looked at Tristan. "I will say this one more time. Raia has a spirit inside her heart, just as Yugi does in his puzzle. The spirit's name is Kaikou, who was the wife of and protector of the pharaoh."

"And?" Joey asked.

Geno rolled his eyes. "And I had a relationship with her mother. I have no blood connection to Raia or Seto, I am merely a family friend"

Tea looked around the dashboard. "So, if we are driving to this place, why did we need to wear these clothes?"

"Because we are driving to Cairo, we have to walk to Scorpion Caves. And the nomads there, they follow the old ways."

"Oh." Tea replied, switching on the radio. Geno turned and looked at her.

"I am in a car with you people, which isn't that bad, even though the man that sealed my daughter's soul is seating behind me. But there is no way in hell I am going to listen to Jennifer Lopez."

"Come on, she's not that bad."

"Mass produced female sexuality. You kids and your darn music." Geno said, letting his true age show. He pulled out a CD and turned the stereo up as Eminem began to play. "Now, mass produced white boy ghetto rage, that I like."

Yami rolled his eyes, and looked back at Kaikou. "Is she alright?"

'She's inside, thinking." He replied. He looked over his shoulder. "What she is thinking, I wish I knew."

Kaikou paced the floor of the golden room inside her heart as Raia sat in a leather chair, watching the spirit.

"My father! How can Geno Roads be my father?"

"Girl, you're stressin'." Raia replied calmly.

"I'm stressin'!" Kaikou said, whipping around to look at her friend. "I found out that the man that killed Yami is my dad. I THINK I AM ALLOWED TO STRESS!!!" Raia snickered and Kaikou just stared at her. "What?"

"It is so oblivious you are his daughter." Kaikou gritted her teeth together.

"And how is that exactly?"

Raia shrugged. "You act like him. Your actions, your tones, the way you hold yourself, it screams Geno Roads."

Kaikou sighed. "It isn't the fact that he is my father that bugs me, it's the fact that I have no idea how to truly react to it."

"You lost me."

"On one hand, I should be mad. I mean, he wasn't there for me, he allowed me to.well, you know about my childhood, and then, when he does return from war, he doesn't even have the nerve to talk to me. On the other hand, this means I have a second chance. And maybe he can tell me things I want to know."

Raia thought over what Kaikou said. "Did you ever think he didn't know about you till it was too late?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, he was at war for over 18 years. Maybe he didn't know you were coming and then found out after you were sealed."

Kaikou nodded. "Makes sense."

"I think you need to give him a chance, allow him to prove himself."

Joey frowned as he walked the streets. "Man, everyone is staring at me! And not in a good way."

"Only the stupid tourists." Geno replied as he led them through the street. "I'd think you'd be use to people laughing at you.

Joey huffed slunk to the back of the group. Geno smiled to himself as they headed through the crowd of people. IT was easy enough, considering people moved when he held out his sword. He smiled though when a bunch of young kids ran up to him, and he gladly to a few snapshots, even allowing a few of them to hold his shield. He reached into his deck box and handed them each a throwstone unit card, and then headed down an alley to meet back up with the rest.

"Have fun?" Yugi replied.

"Yea."

Raia rolled her eyes and adjusted her top. "Can we hurry up and get going? I'd like those cards as soon as possible and to get in some normal clothes."

Joey winked at her. "I think you look good." He looked over at Geno, who yawned. "What, no threats?"

"It's Raia, she could pop out of her top for all I care. As long as it ain't my daughter, I am fine."

Yugi shook his head. "I still can't."

"Yes, we all can't believe I am Kaikou;s father. We get it!" Geno said annoyed. HE turned down another alleyway, and then looked at the teens, and sighed. HE was too old for this, to be hanging around young people like this. HE should be rotting in a tomb. Of course, if he was dead, then he'd be up in the realm of light* with his family..

"Hey there!"

Geno turned to see 2 men standing behind them. Each was dressed in a red muscle shirt and black leather pants. They had tangled hair and scarred up faces that not even a mother could love. He turned forward to see 2 more men, trapping them. He sighed and sheathed his sword. Maybe this could be done without fighting.

"So guys, is this a standard robbery? Or is this a beat up the weak guys, I give you money to stop, you hit them some more robbery? Personally, I can go ever way."

Yugi looked at him in shock, and his puzzle glowed, but Geno waved his dagger, and getting the point, the puzzle stopped.

The guy closest to them moved over to Raia and Tea. "Who are your friends here? Look good."

"Just some guys that had a sex change operation." Geno replied.

'We are not Geno!" Tea said, causing Joey and Tristan to groan. The man moved back to Geno.

"Not nice to lie to me. Rocko, Butch, make an example of him." The two in front smiled, and grabbed Geno and slammed him against the wall. The fourth pulled out a gun and trained it on Yugi, Tristan and Joey. The leader walked over to Tea and grabbed her arm, pulling her close. "You an me are going to have fun."

'No way!" Tea shouted, trying to pull away. The leader frowned as she spit on him, and smacked her. Geno looked at him and smiled.

'You could have had money and left. But you had to be stupid."

"Shut his mouth!"

Rocko pulled out a knife and trained it on Geno's unguarded stomach. Geno closed his eyes. "Here we go again."
