Chapter 4
Two weeks later...
Joey and Tristan were very weak. From the things that Keith had done to them, they were lucky to be alive. Keith went all the way to the point of stabbing them. Tristan was very sick and threw up everything he ate; the only thing he could keep down was water. Joey cared for Tristan by wrapping up his wounds with pieces of his shirt; just like Tristan, Joey's only clothing was a long shirt. Keith had to give Joey a new shirt everyday because Joey would always end up ripping his shirt so he could wrap up Tristan's wounds.
Keith laughed when he saw the boys. He felt like he was living a new life. No one recognized him since he dyed his hair black, started wearing contacts, and claimed that he was a business man; he changed his wardrobe so he could fit his claimed alias. He knew that there was something seriously wrong with Tristan, since Tristan would throw up everything he ate and at points actually throw up blood; but he couldn't send Tristan to the doctors, he'd get caught, plus, he just didn't care. The only thing he did was move them to the low basement of the warehouse, just incase someone came snooping around.
Joey and Tristan would wonder how the others were doing; they wondered if anyone ever found out about them being missing yet. They were locked up with Keith. Keith didn't let them see anything outside; he didn't tell them anything about what was happening on the outside. The boys didn't know about the frantic search for them at all.
Just outside, a little kitten was wondering around the warehouse. It was looking for a way in; like the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat. Not in this case.
The kitten had was black with white spots, one blue eye and one red eye, and a red collar around its neck with a gold tag which said; Name: Miko; Owner: Seto Kaiba; it also had the address on the tag also. Seto found the cat in the rain a few days ago, it was about to die and he brought it back to health; from then, he decided to keep it.
Miko wondered around a little more before it finally found what looked like an opened window. When he made his way in, he found himself in a little vent; he followed the vent to where ever it went.
Joey and Tristan were now asleep; Keith had just left the warehouse a few minutes ago to do something. Joey wasn't in a deep sleep, just enough so he could get at least get a little shut eye. But something from the vent was waking him up. It sounded like a little tacking sound, then the sound of a little whimpered meow.
Joey slowly and gently got Tristan off on his lap and placed him gently on the floor; he got up and went to the little vent. He quietly opened it and saw Miko.
"Hey little guy..." Joey whispered as he picked up the kitten. He held it in his arms and gently petted it. He saw the collar and read it, his mouth dropped opened. 'This cat belongs to Kaiba?!' Joey thought.
He set the little kitten onto the floor and looked around the room for a little sheet of paper and a pen. He saw a pen in the basement a few days ago and he had paper from the wrappers of the good that he and what Tristan tried to eat. He found the items and scribbled down a little note. As soon as he was finished, he tucked the note into Miko's collar and put him back up into the vent.
"Go on little guy." Joey said. "Go on home and give the note to someone."
Miko gave a little meow as if understanding Joey and ran off.
"Please someone come..." Joey whispered as he sat back down onto the floor. A loud banging sound blasted and Tristan jolted awake and dove into Joey's arms.
Miko ran across the streets of Domino all the way to the mansion. He understood what Joey said, he wasn't stupid; that's what you get when you lived for over five thousand years (Will be explained later).
Miko went through the little kitty door in the back of the mansion and ran over to Seto who was on his laptop trying to get the tracking system to work.
Seto was surprised when Miko came out of practically nowhere and jumped on his lap. Seto was busy and he was about to push Miko off, until he noticed something tucked into his collar. Seto held Miko and took the note off of Miko's collar.
"Where did this come from?" Seto asked the cat.
Miko meowed and nudged Seto as if he was trying to signal him to read it.
Seto opened the note and his eyes widened as he read it.
The note said:
To who ever gets this letter. HELP!!! This is Joey Wheeler, I beg of you to come help. Me and Tristan are trapped in some warehouse, the problem is that we don't know where it is, and all we know is that we are still in Domino. Please get us out of here, Keith is raping us and Tristan is very sick. Send help now.
"YamiBakuraMarik!!!" Seto yelled.
Miko wasn't expecting the yelling and fell off of the couch in surprise.
The yamis came running to Seto.
"Seto what is it?" Yami asked.
Seto handed Yami the note. Yami's eyes widened as he read it.
"Where-" Yami started to ask.
"It was tucked in Miko's collar." Seto answered.
Miko began scratching at Seto's ankle and began running to door; he stopped turned and meowed.
"Do you think it's trying to take us to them?" Bakura asked.
"Well, we'll never know unless we follow." Seto said.
"Great, we have to trust a house pet now." Marik murmured.
"Let's just go." Seto said. "We can tell the others to call the police. When we find the warehouse, we can tell them where to find us."
The yamis nodded in agreement.
"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Another voice asked.
Everyone turned and saw Serenity.
"This is the only lead we have." Seto said.
"I'll call the police and you guys please be careful." Serenity said.
The boys nodded and went off.
Seto and the yamis jumped into one of Seto's cars along with Miko.
To everyone's amazement, Miko would point a paw to where to go. They didn't know what to say, they could only hope that the cat was leading the right way.
Miko let out a snarled meow when Seto passed the right warehouse. Seto back up and pulled across the street from it.
When he opened the door, Miko jumped out before him and ran to the house.
"We should sneak in there." Yami said. "The cat won't have any problems."
Everyone nodded in agreement and walked up to the warehouse. When they got there, they snuck in through the unlocked door.
"Where do you think they are?" Yami asked.
"I don't know." Seto said.
Just then a loud yell echoed around the warehouse and the sound of sobbing was heard right after. Soon the sound of wicked laughter was heard.
"Holy crap..." Seto murmured.
Sounds of footsteps were heard, the sound of a closing door and locking, then the resuming sound of footsteps.
"Seto, you go hide somewhere." Yami said. "When we get the keys from the bastard, you can go and get the two."
"No, I'm staying right here." Seto said.
Keith came up the steps and gasped when he saw the four boys.
"What are you four doing here?!" Keith yelled.
Yami used his powers and sent Keith flying across the room. Somehow Keith managed to land on his feet. Seto pulled out a gun.
"Where are they Keith?!!!" Seto yelled.
Keith paled when he saw the gun.
"Downstairs in the basement..." Keith said.
Two gunshots were fired and Keith fell to the ground yelling. Seto shot him two times on the left leg. He walked up to Keith, gun still pointed at him.
"Where is the key?" Seto asked.
"What key?" Keith asked back.
Seto cocked the gun.
"Don't play stupid." Seto snarled.
Keith dug into one of his pockets and took out the key, throwing it at Seto.
"There, you happy?" Keith said.
Seto picked up the key and turned to the yamis.
"Bakura, you come with me." Seto said. "You two keep an eye on this bastard."
Bakura followed Seto down the stairs, leaving the other two to take care of Keith. And they planned to take real 'good' care of him.
Seto rushed down the stairs to the basement door. He quickly worked the key into the lock and unlocked the door; slowly he opened the door.
A loud yell and some hushing noises were heard.
"Joey, Tristan?" Seto called.
"Seto!!!" Two voices yelled.
Both Seto and Bakura made their way down the stairs to the boys. Seto found a light and flicked it on, it was an extremely dim light, but it was enough for Seto and Bakura to see the shape that Joey and Tristan were in.
Seto felt like fainting at what he saw; Bakura actually felt like screaming. The two boys that once looked so strong and proud, were now reduced to nothing. They were both so bony; the shirts that they were wearing were slipping off their shoulders, there were holes in the shirts which showed the boys ribcage, the ribs were actually visible through the skin. They boys were literally nothing but skin and bones.
Tristan began to shake uncontrollable.
"What's happening to him?!!!" Joey cried.
Seto and Bakura rushed to the boys.
Bakura picked up Joey and watched as Seto settled the shaking of Tristan's body; he picked up the unconscious body and they all went up the stairs.
Yami had Yugi's cell phone and called the police to tell them where they were.
Yami and Marik had been doing a lot of work on Keith; at this point, Keith would be the luckiest person on earth if he could still walk.
Marik heard footsteps coming up the stairs and he and Yami waited for Seto and Bakura to come up with the people that they had been looking for. What they saw, they would never forget.
Joey had fallen asleep in Bakura's arms and Tristan remained unconscious in Seto's.
"What the-" Yami began, but was interrupted by the sounds of sirens.
"Can I just send him to the Shadow Realm?" Yami asked.
"No, we'll just leave the government to deal with him." Seto said as he looked down at Tristan, then over at Joey.
To be continued...
Will Joey and Tristan be okay?
