Chapter 91: The Meet

___________________________________

Morning rose and everyone was packed and ready. Daniel's mom got Allen's parents to let him go to America.

Everyone had met at Daniel's house early before morning so they could get there. They arrived at the airport where Daniel showed the letter and got to their private plane.

"Wow... A private plane..." Mink said. "I've always wondered what it was like inside."

"Well let's see." Jess said, pulling her onto the plane. They all wowed at what it was inside. They could live in it forever but it was only a one way trip. Daniel said his good byes to his mom as he gave her one last wave.

"Oh becareful in America. You don't know what's there!" She yelled.

"Heh, Heh, I'll becareful." Daniel said. "We'll all have to be."

A while later the pilot told everyone to get buckled up and ready because they were leaving. Daniel sighed, not knowing what was instore for them soon.

Paul rode in his helicopter to the Industrial Illusions building. Where the game was created. He got in but there was no sign of anyone.

"Hello?" He said. "I must be too early."

"Right you are..." A voice said. Paul turned around to see a man in a suit, standing infront of him with a suit case in his hand. "Who are you..." He asked

"I am Paul, owner of the P.K Company. I'd say the same thing but I have no time to talk, where is Crawford?" Paul sneered.

"He has ben hospitalized due to some strange events that occurred in his office." The person said.

"What is your name?" Paul asked.

"Call me Delta. I am an assistant to Sir Crawford. Due to his medical needs I'll be hosting this meeting." Delta said. "Where are the others?"

"Still coming. They won't be here in about an hour." Paul said.

"I see Crawford has let them on his Private Capsule. One of his fastest planes yet." Delta smiled. "But then again. You and your friends are in danger."

"Danger? What kind of danger?" Paul said.

"You might remember a company known as Doom, Right?" Delta asked. Paul nodded. "This company was like a computer virus, hard to get rid of, and really damaging. Unfortunately they had some kind of cards which had... some kind of 'magic'. But then again it seems all weird to me."

"Whatever. I want to wait for the others." Paul said. "Meanwhile I'll scout the area. I've been bored off my feet in that helicopter."

"I'll be waiting here." Delta said, going into the building. Paul took the stairs and out of the building and walked down the street.

He started thinking. "What happened to your Crawford... Nothing like this should have happened unless... Yes, the seal got you. But who did it..." He asked himself.

An hour later he saw a plane coming. "Look, it's Paul!" Allen pointed out the window.

In a matter of minutes the plane landed and everyone got out. "We have new host. Crawford was struck down by the Orichalcos Seal." Paul said, guiding them into the building. "And I don't know who did it."

They met into a room with Delta. "Greetings. Please have a seat." He said. Everyone sat around the round table, waiting for this meeting to start. "You all know about this symbol."

Delta pressed a button, turning on a projector which showed the picture of the Orichalcos Seal. "The seal..." Everyone said in their minds.

"Well, studies confirm that they are related to some sort of magic." Delta said, feeling a bit stupid talking about magic. "We have yet to discover what they're weaknesses are."

"May I say something?" Daniel asked.

"Go ahead." He said.

"We've found out a way to permanently destroy this card." He said, He took a card out of his deck, showing the Orichalcos Arrow. "This was discovered."

Delta looked at the angel on the picture. "Wait a second. I think I've seen this before..." He said. He walked over to a desk, taking out an old book. He flipped to some pages. There was the same picture of the angel on there.

"What is it?" Allen asked.

"This Angel... It is the Angel of Freedom. In legend they said an Angel would fly around everyone 100 years, freeing anything trapped by black magic." Delta said reading a text and summarizing it. "Where'd you get this card?"

"Umm, that's hard to explain..." Daniel said, knowing he wouldn't believe him about the magic deal. "I sort of uncovered it."

"Well, be glad. This could be all your guy's key to getting out of this problem. You all remember the Doom Organization right?" Delta asked. Everyone nodded. "This organization was obsessed with some weird black ritual type of stuff. They also created their own duel monsters company. Well in belief they discovered these 'Oracle Demons' trying to trace their power."

"Hey..." Mink said. "We had them...."

"Say what?" Delta asked.

"Blah nothing..." Mink said.

"Anyways. These were supposedly the one thing they could trace down but then something happened. They're organization just suddenly dropped and no traces of employees were recovered. Our closest member is a kid. A kid named Dai." He said. "But as we get closer he gets farther."

"Well what do you want with him?" Daniel asked.

"He has some answers we want. We cannot have this kind of chaos in this planet." Delta said.

"Well can you explain this?" Allen said, showing him Drifting Wind and Grand Geralian.

"I've never seen those. But I could try to study them. Let me get a quick picture." He said. He took out a camera, taking pictures of Paul's Allen's and Daniel's cards.

Everything was a mystery. Why were they talking about Doom now? Practically everyone but Delta in the room knew about Doom but didn't want to start anything up again.

Could it be true? Dai was still out there. If the seal was back... He could become what he was when Daniel faced him.

But the the Oracle Warrior said it'd never return. Did they unleash a new saga? A thousand questions came to everyone's mind but no one could answer them.

After about an hour Delta excused everyone. "Man... That was boring." Mink sighed, walking out.

"He only said just about everything we knew." Jess complained. "I just want to go shopping or something."

"Where do we stay?" Daniel asked. "For the nights?"

"Hey, it's not my fault you didn't plan anything you guys are on your own." Paul said. "But I can only help you for now. Here's 1500 bucks."

He handed them several bills. They gradually took it. "We'll have to rent a hotel or something." Daniel groaned.

Suddenly a car came by and stopped. "Dan? Allen? What are you guys doing here?" A guy said, rolling down the window. It was Devon.

"Devon?! What are you doing here?" Mink said.

"I'm here visiting family...." Devon said.

"Yeah well we got a free vacation but no stay." Allen grumbled. "Thanks to mr. snob over here."

"Well hop in, I have my own place you guys could stay for a while." He said. "No charge."

"Alright!" Jess cheered jumping in. Allen, Mink, and Jess sat in the back and Daniel met up in the front.

"You must have heard the news too, about Crawford." Devon said.

"Yeah. It was the Orichalcos Seal." Daniel said.

"I've heard of that. It caused a lot of chaos in Domino City. When the DOMA Challenge started." Devon said.

"Well what's going on here?" Daniel asked.

"Gang members have been disappearing as well as young kids who play the Duel Monsters game. I was thinking it was that magic card. But how could it get from Japan to America..." Devon said.

"it's a mystery. But then again.. Someone else might have gotten here and copied the cards." Daniel said. "Crawford is too.. weird to do that."

"Woah... Maybe Doom is back..." Allen said.

"No way, who could start this all over again?" Jess said. Allen shrugged.

Devon then stopped in a large parking spot where large condos where everywhere. They followed Devon to a condo which he unlocked and opened. "Make yourself at home. I don't spend much time here anyway." Devon said. Everyone got in. It was a nice place to stay.

Paul sat in one of the most expensive apartments in the state. He was working on stuff he should have been working on in California.

Suddenly his cell phone rang and he answered it. "What is it?" He asked.

"Meet at the Docks tonight. Unless you want to see your little friends." A dark voice said.

"Who is this?" Paul asked but there was a hang up.

He thought about Daniel and the others being in danger. Delta did say they were in danger. Paul growled. "Why does everyone seem to stalk me all the time." He said, looking at the clock. It was 6:00. He didn't want to spare time so he got up and left.
