"So, you're tellin' me some moron dumped bleach on your head?"Tristan asked, still stunned at seeing his friend so.....different.

Kaily nodded, blowing a loose strand of white hair out of her face,"Yeah, Kusanagi was laughing about it for a week."

"So, when we gonna get ta meet this guy?"Joey asked.

"If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were jealous."Kaily teased,"I had Croquet head over to spring him as soon as we got home."

"Miss Pegasus."

Kaily's eyes hardened,"I don't like that tone of voice, Croquet."

"On Mister Pegasus's request, Kusanagi is under lock and key for life without bail."Crouet replied, walking into the room.

"Tell them I'll pay any price they want."Kaily replied simply,"Money's no object for me."

"Of course, and if they say no?"

"Then tell them I'll buy the juvenile detention center and fire the whole lot of them."Kaily replied simply,"And make sure you treat Kusanagi with the utmost respect, he's had it rough his whole life, he deserves a break."

"Of course, Miss Pegasus."

Kaily turned her attention back to the group,"Now, what's up for dinner?"

"Your turn to cook."Yugi grined.

Kaily snarled,"I just got home!"

"Exactly."Mai got up,"Now, I've got a date to get ready for."

"So, when do we get to meet this boyfriend of yours?"Aurora asked.

"When I feel like introducing him to you."Mai replied.

"Oh, come on!"Mokuba wined,"That's no fun!!"

"Back off you two."Kaiba and Kaily grabbed the two by the collar.

"Aaaaaawwwwwww!"

"Back off!!"

"Meanies!"

"Yes, we are."

Yugi chuckled,"I was really starting to miss that."

"What? Us saything things at the same time?"Kaily snickered,"I thought you hated that."

"I do."

T'ea smiled,"It's just great to have you back."

"I second that emotion."Tristan held up his hand.

"We all do."Solomon leafed through his granddauther's sketch book,"We all missed you, especially Yugi and Joey."

"Well, atleast they're agreeing on something."Kaily shrugged.

"Are not!"both boys chorused.

"You're saying you didn't miss me?"Kaily asked.

"No!"

"Then you two both missed me? I'd call that agreeing."

"No!"

"Then you didn't miss me? You're still agreeing."

"No!"

"Face it, she's got you two trapped."Kaiba snickered.

"That reminds me,"Kaily jumped from her couch top perch and grabbed Joey's arm,"I owe you a little present." His arm snapped in her hands.

"OOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

In Alaska

"OOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Did ya hear that Bill?"

"Yeah, Bob, I did."

"Where d'ya think its coming from, Bill?"

"Dunno, Bob, maybe, its, like, a boy getting his arm broken by his best friend for fighting with their other best friend, who just happens to be the first best friend's twin brother."

The two men exchanged glances,"Naaah."

Back on Domino City

Kaiba cringed,"DAMN MUTT!!!!!!"

Joey let out a wimper,"Ow."

"Baby."Kaiba, Kaily, and Yugi chorused.

Mai shook her head,"You always go through with your threats, don't you?"

*BRRRIING!!*

Kaily grabbed the phone,"Yeah.................Croquet!! Ugh, fine, buy the whole damn place!!" She slammed the phone down on the receiver,"Morons."

"I'll take that as a yes."Mai rolled her eyes,"Yugi, are you SURE you're related to her?"

"No."

"Oh, thanks."Kaily blew her golden bangs out of her face,"Remind me to yell at Dad later."

"You're welcome."

"Grr....."



Kusanagi paced back and forth in his cell,"Ugh!! How could I be so stupid?! She's Pegasus's daughter, she probably hates me now!"

"Somehow I highly doubt that."

He looked up to see Croquet standing next to him cell,"What do you want?"

"Miss Pegasus paid your bail."Croquet explained.

"I'm supposed to be in here for life without parole."

"You'd be suprised how far Kail will go to get what she wants."Croquet chuckled,"She bought the city police force."

"She.What?!"

"As I said, you'd be suprised how far Kail will go to get what she wants."

"Yeah....."



Kaily looked up from the book she'd been buried in, to see Joey and Yugi, both wearing casts, glaring at eachother,"I break their arms and they STILL want to kill eachother."

"You two are best friends!"T'ea shouted angrily,"You shouldn't be fighting!! You've always been there for eachother, no matter what, and now you're at eachother's throats!!! You're being stupid!!"

"That's not too hard for Joey."Yugi snarled.

"Atleast I didn't need magic to make myself tall!!"Joey retorted.

"HEY!"Kaily snapped.

"Atleast I get good grades!"

"Atleast I don't need a GIRL to protect me!"

Kaily snarled,"THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE HAD IT WITH YOU TWO!!!!!!!!!" Both boys immediately shut up. "Good, now, BOTH OF YOU GO TO YOUR ROOMS!!!!!!!!"

Yugi and Joey, with slight wimpers, raced out of the room, up the stairs, and into their rooms. T'ea and Serenity just shook their heads, something between annoyed and embarassed. Tallen looked up from her spot sleeping on Kaily's head and wimpered.

"It's ok, Tals."Kaily whispered,"The boys are just being idiots."

"You can say that again."Serenity nodded,"I just hope it doesn't last much longer."

T'ea rolled her eyes,"Those two are way to stubborn. Did you and Joey ever fight like that?"

Kaily shook her head,"Except for a few friendly squabbles, usually about protecting Serenity, we always got along. Joey's my best friend, and, sure, we always bicker, but that's how we get along. We never fight like THAT, but, if we ever did get into a fight like that, It'd probably be the same way with me. I'm too damn stubborn to apologize, of course, I'd probably give Joey a black eye every time I saw him, or worse."

"Yeah, or worse."Serenity teased,"So, are you still coming to Tokyo with us?"

"Of course."Kaily grinned,"I'm still a track star, and I HAVE to protect you."

"Sadly."T'ea muttered.

"I heard that."

"Good."

"No fighting you two."Solomon walked in,"Mai says you three need to get to bed. You've got to be at the track at five o' clock sharp." The three girls moaned, Kaily began muttering under her breath in various languages, Serenity hissed, and T'ea got up to leave. "I'll do my best to distract her in the morning."

"Thanks gramps."Kaily muttered,"You are a god among angels."

"I take it that doesn't include Joey and Yugi?"Solomon smiled.

"Not right now it doesn't."

I was just wonering. I can't fill you in on the details of my jail experience right now, I need to get to track practice with mommy dearest. C ya. Kail

Amane heaved a sigh of releif as she read over Kaily's letter again,'She's still coming. But, why does she want to know about Dad and Ryou?' She looked up from her computer to a picture on top of it of two young children, both with shoulder-length white-ish hair, sitting on a large rock. One had gentle brown eyes and the Millenium Ring around his neck, and the other had light green eyes and was holding a long, white snake in her hands. 'Ryou...'

"AMANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

She was knocked out of her chair by a hard punch to the side of the head. She collided with the wall and blacked out.
