"Party!" Grant yelled as he danced around the room. His life had become perfect ever since he dumped his daughter. He was free, free to do whatever he wanted, without having to worry about his daughter complaining up a storm. He had never realized how much his daughter had annoyed him till he got rid of her. Now she was stuck in Domino City with amnesia, and with not one familiar face, she'd probably never remember who she was. Grant continued to dance around the room of his yacht as he was swarmed with women. He heard the phone ring and not thinking it through grabbed it.
"Hello" he said in a dopey voice.
"Grant!" Edith's voice said sternly.
Grant tripped in shock and fell to his knees clutching the receiver. "Edith" he gasped. "Hello."
"This is ludicrous, Grant. I have called every week for two months!" Edith yelled into the phone.
"And I have looked forward to each and every call!" Grant said in an attempt to suck up.
"Do you have the gall to tell me that I have missed her again?"
"Well, she's sleeping." Grant lied.
Edith raised an eyebrow. Did he think that she was stupid? That she couldn't hear the loud music and screaming of women in the background.
"I don't believe you!" she told him as Grant bit his lip nervously. "Grant, if you don't produce Serena in one week, I am going to hire a mass of mercenararies to hunt you down and chop off the protruding parts of your body do you understand me!" Edith threatened.
"I'll find her; I mean you'll have your granddaughter. Bye!" He said hurriedly as he hung up the phone.
"Andrew, point the boat back to Domino." He commanded to the annoyed looking butler as he sighed and continued on with the party.
"You and I are going to take a little trip." Edith said in a baby voice to her dog, Shitaki. "We're going to go bye bye." She said as she glared at the wall, thinking of what she would do if Grant had done something to her granddaughter.

"Heads up!" Serena warned as she hit the volley ball over the net that they had strung up between two trees. She had managed to assemble the family together to play volley ball. She had even invited Duke and his wife Serenity over as well.
"So that's were me and Kaiba met." Duke said. Serena had asked how Seto knew Duke. She wanted to ask why everyone, with the exception of her, called Seto Kaiba. But refrained from asking.
"Out!" she said bringing her mind back to the game. "Now, Duke, when did we date?" she asked curiously.
"Uhhhh…." Duke stuttered as Seto threw the ball at Duke hitting him in the head and creating the diversion he wanted.
Later after they had finished the game, Seto and Duke were sitting at a picnic table discussing business plans.
"What about starting a miniature golf course?" Duke suggested.
"That's good, but what would the theme be?" Seto asked.
"What about sink 'em and drink 'em? You know for the men. The more hole in one's they get, the more they get to drink?" Duke suggested.
"I think what I thought yesterday. It's a dumb idea!"
"What are we talking about?" Serena asked leaving Serenity at the grill and leaning her hands on the side of the table.
"Just business stuff. Trying to think of an idea for a miniature golf course." Seto said.
"What about far away places?" Serena suggested.
"What like France?" Duke questioned.
Serena nodded her head. "May we!" she said as she proceeded to rattle off a phrase in French. She straightened up as soon as she realized what she said.
"I speak French!" she said surprised. Seto and Duke exchanged nervous glances. "Do I know what I said?" she asked herself as she translated in her head. "Yes, I do. I must have learned that in Paris." Serena said thinking hard, trying to remember. "When was I in Paris? In the Navy!" she concluded thinking back to what Seto had told her.
"That's it!" Seto agreed.
"Well, I'm not sure that would sell." Duke said in an attempt to revert the subject back to the golf course.
"Actually, I think that could work." Seto said getting up to stand next to Serena. "Could you draw me some pictures of what you're talking about, Kanna?" he asked. Serena didn't answer and looked to see what she was staring at.
"What's this?" Seto asked as he turned to see Yami walking next to a brown haired girl.
"Yami found a girlfriend." Serena said with a smile. Yami's three brothers saw him heading to the trail in the woods with his girlfriend Tea.
"Hey, Yami! Don't knock her off!" Joey yelled after him. Serena stared in shock at her oldest son.
"Very funny!" she said sternly to him.
"Aww mom!" Joey whined as he sat down on the picnic bench.
"Don't 'aww mom' me. You watch your language young man!" she lectured.
