AN: Well since there is nothing better to do on Christmas Eve at the moment
I thought it best to finish the Cliffhanger from the last chapter with Seth
and Adam. Here is a Merry Christmas to all who read this story.

"Excuse me?" Why had been the last thing Seth had expected to hear when he walked into Adam's pain filled soul room.
"Why did you lie to me? You used Kayla and me... You almost made me lose my best friend. All because you wanted some ass." Adam was ready to explode, never mind he was dying on the table.
"I did it for your own good. It would have torn you both apart to know we used your bodies." Seth saw a dagger appear near Adam. Seth took a step back.
"Get out. I don't know where I am at, but I don't want you anywhere near Kayla or me. I love her too much for you to hurt her as you have hurt me." Adam picked the dagger up and threw it at Seth. Seth however, knew the blade was coming and caught it in mid air.
"Are you done with your childish display yet?" Seth then had to arch back as Adam took a swing at him. Grabbing Adam in an attempt to calm the young boy, Seth saw as they contacted one another, that Adam was dying on the operating table and needed help. Using all his mental powers Seth locked Adam in his soul room and took over his body.
~:::~
"Sir we have a pulse, a weak one but a plus none the less." A nurse informed the surgeon trying to revive Adam from his trauma.
"So he is. I want him moved to ICU as soon as he stabilizes. We do not know what damage his internal organs took. He will need a MRI scan and X-rays of his chest."
"Yes Dr. Moore, I will go see if the ICU has a bed ready for Mr. Kaiba."
"Very well nurse Borgan."
"Sir, there is some children here to see Mr. Kaiba as well as his father. Should I let them in?" "No Nurse Strata, they will have to wait till he is moved to ICU."
"Yes Sir, I will go inform Mr. Kaiba and the children." Nurse Strata walked out to go inform the kids and Seto about Adam.
Meanwhile....
~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~ :::~~:::~~:::~
"Why did you do it Seth" Adam was calming down due to the sedative they gave him.
"I thought it was best you not know that you were used. I never thought that you would take it as hard. Kayla however, will need you when she finds out.
"How can you be so calm about this?"
"Unlike Calia, I am not that volatile. Only she has the ability to anger me."
"Do you expect me to trust you or forgive you again?" Adam thought he knew what the answer would be, but he was wrong.
"No, but I do expect you to let me help. For if you do not, I will force you in here, your soul room and take over. I refuse to let you get hurt if I can help it."
"Good, as long as we understand I don't trust you or will trust you around Kayla." Seth nodded his head as they talked while his body was still in the ER.
~:::~
"What is taking so damn long? I want to see Adam!" Kayla cried as she started to cough. Everyone was worried about her. Seto just stood quietly in the corner waiting for news on his adoptive son, one he had come to consider as his own.
"Seto Kaiba?" A nurse came out of the steal double doors that lead to the ER.
"I am he, what is the news of my son?"
"He is to be transferred to the ICU to be monitored. We have found that he broken three of his ribs on his left side, cracked his sternum and cracked two ribs on the right side of his rib cavity. Despite the injuries, he will make a full recovery."
"When can we see him?" Kayla wanted to see him for herself.
"Not till he wakes and is taken up to ICU young lady." The nurse answered Kayla.
"Very well, I wish to be informed the second he wakes up." Gone was the concerned father and back was the cold CEO of Kaiba Corp. The nurse nodded meekly before walking back thru the cold steel doors of the ER.
"Gee could you have been any colder old man?" Jack asked before going back to sitting down.
~:::~
*What is going on?* Kayla was started out of her near sleeping state when Calia started talking in her head, something she would never get used too.
**Adam got hurt while working at Kaiba Land. He has broken and cracked ribs with a cracked sternum, he will be fine though.** Relief washed over the link to Kayla.
**Did Seth disappear on you with out notice?**
*Yes he did. He mumbled something about Adam and retreated to his soul room. Is that why he did that?*
**That is more than likely the reason that he did that.**
*Very well, tell me where to go so I can get to the place you are at. I want to see my husband he was bleeding before he left.*
**That is from Adam's injuries. Here is how you get to the hospital..**
~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~:::~~ :::~~:::~~:::~
"How you feeling Adam?" Kayla asked as they all gathered in his room to see him. The walls were an awful stark white with green curtain, and blue flooring. Monitors beeped off and on in a steady rhythm.
"Like something feel and crushed me."
"The doctor says that you can leave as soon as the papers are done son." Seto spoke up.
"So now it is son, a few hours ago it was little ungrateful bastard." Adam tried to laugh but found it hurt him to do so. Kayla smacked Adam in the head making Seth and Calia laugh.
"Hey I am injured here." Kay rolled her eyes.
"Not enough if you are trying to antagonize your father. I know you are ok when you indulge in your favorite pastime." Seth just whistled at that thought. Pissing off his dad was not wise.
"Shut up all you." The doctor came in as Adam said that and looked at him.
"Come in sir, he was not talking to you, just the peanut gallery." Kay waved the doctor in who started to explain Adam's care and what not to Seto and seemingly Kayla who said she would help take care of him.
~:::~
"So how is crips" Jack joked as they were coming home from cold fusions.
"Like this." Jack never saw the punch that was coming for his face until it connected with his eye. Everyone laughed.
"Very funny, hey Kay you alright?" Milia asked Kayla who was looking even worse than she had at the hospital.
"Just a little under the weather I am going to go head home and rest. Seeya later you guys." Kayla waved to her friend's before walking towards her home. When she got there she heard loud noises. "Great they are at it again." She thought as she walked by and into her bedroom. Turning on her music she changed and got into bed. Feeling sick as she was, Kayla slipped right into the land of dreams and into the past once again.
Kayla's Dream
"I hope you can guard these properly. I know it is not a good idea to separate them, but I must mourn my son without those in my presence. Keep them with you Istral; they must stay with you or your family."
"I shall past them onto my daughter High Priest. For Calia will be reborn on day. When her reincarnation frees her so will your son be freed. The gods have said so and so shall it be. Separate husband and wife or not, they will find each other again High Priest."
"Don't you think I know this Istral? My son just killed himself out of misery, let me have my peace. Even the gods would understand that I must mourn my son."
"Very well Seto I will take Calia and watch over her as will my family till the end of time." Istral walked away from the distraught priest. Having found one's son dead of suicide would make anyone be like Seto was. Depressed and angry at the source of it all. Which happen to be Calia.
"Come my child, I am going to make you powerful. I know many of my blood will be killed for you, I have seen it. You must make it to one of my daughters if you hope to save this world" Istral whispered to the old queen's gauntlets as she took them to her room to put a power so strong on them, that not even the Sennen Puzzle could harm the bearer of the gauntlets with magic.
End of Kayla's Dream
"UHHHHH, who is that woman." Kayla breathed just before she preceded to throw up all over her bed alarming Seth and Calia who were in the front room relaxing after a round of love making.
"Kayla you ok?"
