Tristan woke up at about noon, and with a grumble, looked at his alarm
clock radio. It should have turned on at 10! He rolled over, and picked it
up off his night stand. He put it to his ear. "Damn, static....but this is
my normal station. Stupid retooling."
He groaned, and got dressed. He flipped on the Tv, only to get snow. He shut it off, and grabbed the keys to his motorcycle, ready to go apoligise to Kevin for being late, praying he would not make a big deal about it, talking about how one must wake early and research if one wanted to be a professor. As he reached his door, the phone rang.
"Damn it." He sighed, turning back. "Hello, Kevin? I know I'm late...."
"Tristan!"
Tristan frowned. "Serenity? What's wrong?"
"Joey's gone! He isn't in his apartment! I tried calling the others, but they aren't answering...." She grew quiet. "I think something happened to them."
"I'm on my way, you stay put." HE grabbed his helmet and started up the copper. As he drove, he noticed that the streets were empty, not a soul was around. He bit his lip. He didn't like this. He pulled up to Joey's apartment complex, and found Serenity sitting next to the door. "You saying jJoey isn't there at all? No note, nothing?"
"Yes! My big brother is gone!" She handed Tristan Joey's deck case. "He even left this."
Tristan thought. "Let's go to Yugi's Grandpa's shop. I beat they just meet there and Joey forgot a note." He tosses Serenity a spare helmet and they hoped on, racing through the empty streets of Domino.
"What if they aren't there Tristan."
"They'll be there." He paused. "And if they aren't, we'll go to Kevin's house. Atleast we know he is there."
The pulled up to the shop, and knew they were in trouble. The windows had been busted open, the place teared up. They ran up the stairs to find Yugi's room tore apart, his deck laying scattered. They picked it up and Tristan pocketed it.
"Come on, let's head to Kevin's place." They ran out of the building and stopped short.
"Look what we have here boys."
Serenity's eyes grew huge. "It's that Malik guy!"
Tristan frowned. "No, it's his dark half." He turned, and grabbed a hunk of wood fromt the broken window. "What did you do with our friends?"
Yami Malik chuckled. "They are with us, same as you." The hunters slowly closed around them. "Take them alive."
Tristan swung the wood, nailing a hunter in the face, a nail embedded in his skull. Serenity shielded her eyes as blood poured out. Tristan grimaced, but watched as the wound healed and the hunter readied to make another move. "These guys aren't real."
"There real alright."
Malik turned and looked at Kevin. "So, you did escape us. You must tell em how you did that."
Kevin chucked, and spun his cane like a staff. "come at me and find out." Malik nodded, and pointed. Two Rare Hunters ran at Kevin, and dove to tackle him. But he was no longer there. Insteed, he was now infront of Malik, snapping the creep's neck. He turned, and was now near another group, attacking them. Tristan watched in amazment as his friend began to warp all over the place, attacking goons. When one looked like it would finally hit him, Kevin was gone, attacking an unexpected Rare Hunter. Finally, they all laid dead.
"Tristan, grab your moto, we don't have time, these guys heal quick." Serenity and Tristan stood there, shocked. "I'll explain later, now move!" Tristan nodded, and hoped on his cycle. He helped Serenity on and looked at Kevin. "Meet me in that alley over there." Kevin was gone, and Tristan drove a block tot eh alley Kevin had pointed out. There, he found his friend and his Malibu, it's top down. "Put the bike in the back seat."
Tristan grunted, and lifted it into the back. Him and Serenity jumped in the front seat with Kevin. "What the hell is going on? How did you warp around, who were whose...."
"Later! Now, buckle up, this is going to get rough." Kevin shouted. He floored it,a dn the car raced out of the alley. Serenity looked back and gasped.
"They are getting up."
"I told you, they heal fast." He speed up, and then U turned. "Tristan, open the glove box."
Tristan did, and looked at his friend. "Why do you have a gun!!!"
"For emergencies like this." Kevin grabbed the revolver and raced at the hunters. He he aimed, and shoot them down, taking Malik out a second time. "That should buy use 5 minutes." He turned the car down a side road. "Which way to Geno Road's house?"
"WhY do you ask?"
Kevin looked at the Tristan. "Ask me later, now tell me!"
"Down this road."
He groaned, and got dressed. He flipped on the Tv, only to get snow. He shut it off, and grabbed the keys to his motorcycle, ready to go apoligise to Kevin for being late, praying he would not make a big deal about it, talking about how one must wake early and research if one wanted to be a professor.
