Do not own yugi-oh

Hakkai

==========================================================

"Stay back…" Kusanagi spoke. Yuugi and Yami nodded and saw as the blonde man began walking towards the lashing beasts. The monsters stopped, feeling his presence and turned to him. They growled at him the rumblings of their footsteps came down.

Jounouchi stood unfazed as he faced his opponents.

"He…He's not really going to face them alone, is he?" Yuugi ask. At this Kusanagi smirked "You have nothing to worry about, This is nothing that Taijyo can't handle" she assured with much confidence. The duel disk on his arm activated. He put his deck in as the band on his arm began to glow and a purple aura began to surround him.

The three creatures lunged at him as the screams of hunger filled the air.

"JOUNOUCHI!!" Yuugi and Yami cried out. The monsters were suddenly thrown back by a completely fireighn force which overpowered them and the blonde man was still standing in a calmed position. Yuugi noticed that the band was glowing around his arm especially the eyes of Horus as a aura surrounded Jounouchi. Jounouchi drew from his deck.

"RED EYES!" He bellowed as he placed it on the duel disk. The sky darkened slightly as a figure began to emerge from the clouds. Jounouchi winced when he felt a bit of his life force drain in order to sustain his monster while the technology of Kaiba made the monster more stable. He added another card down and dragon nails appeared upon the dragons talons.

"RED EYES! DESTROY THEM ALL!!!" Jounouchi commanded coldly. The dragon did what it was told and unleashed it's wrath completely destroying the monsters against it. Yuugi and yami only looked in amazement at how shortly and easily Jounouchi had destroyed the fiends, all except Kusanagi who had a knowing smile on her face. His red eyes disappeared as the troublemaking cadets ran to him.

"That was great Taijyo"

"You kick ass!"

Jounouchi met them with firm eyes "What were you thinking!?!? You can't be able to control high level monsters like that!" he barked. The cadets look away from him. Yuugi stared at his friend agape…the Jounouchi he knew would swoon to the praise and bashfully brag about his newly won battle but…

This wasn't the Jounouchi he knew….not anymore anyways.

"Listen, summoning high monsters like that puts a risk of Marik's men of finding us!?! Do you understand!" he exclaimed.

"Yes….Taijyo" all three cadets spoke in unison bowing their heads. Kusanagi sighed at this "You morons…" she muttered, the three boys gave a look before leaving the four to themselves. Jounouchi said nothing but only had a look of deep thought in his face. He suddenly looked to them.

"Sorry. You guys must be hungry" he spoke. "Actually, I would like to explore this place some more" yami spoke up. Jounouchi nodded "If you want…"

"Uhm…" Yuugi began. The trio turned to him "Well I am hungry so…"

Jounouchi nodded "Yes, Seiya, show him where we keep the rations" he ordered. She nodded "Yes, Taijyo" she saluted. With that they begin to part their own ways.

"So?"

"….."

"Uhm…"

"Yes…?" Seiya ask. Yuugi looked to here "You know, you can stop acting all rigid you know" he ask. She stiffened at this "Uhm ok" she spoke and continue to walk rigidly.

Yuugi sighed at this.

"Uhm…Seiya was it?" he began. She looked to him "You're not hungry, are you?" she ask. Yuugi shook his head "no I'm not, but, I was wondering, if you could take me to Anzu" he ask. She seem to freeze at this. "Is something wrong?" he ask. Seiya sighed for a moment.

"I…don't think that would be in the best of hers or yours interest…" she began. Yuugi frowned at her "Why not!?!" he exclaimed.

"Anzu-san….she's been through some unspeakable things…" she trailed off at this. Yuugi suddenly grabbed her arm "PLEASE SEIYA!!" he shouted pleadingly. Her eyes slightly widen staring back at him "I…I just want to see if she's all right, that's all…" he said.

"That it…?"

"that's it, just a peek and that's all" Yuugi assured. She rubbed the back of her head in question "I don't know…Kaiba doesn't like and will kill anyone who goes in his lab but…" she gave him a slight smile.

"For the supposed "Savior" why not? Lets defy death" she finished. She motioned him to follow her. Yuugi smiled at her "Thank you Seiya, this means a lot to me" he whisper.

"Nah, don't mention it" she assured as he led him through winding tunnels "just be prepared to think on your feet" she warned.

"Why??" he asked and jumped when a laser hit in front of him. She gave a grim smile "Like I said; Kaiba doesn't like ANYONE going to his lab" she answered.

Yuugi only gulped.

======================================

Yami looked besides his silent comrade; why could he say? What should he say after knowing that Jounouchi had gone through so much…and changed through so much as well. Yami looked around him seeing people of all kinds around him some playing with pastimes, others gathering around to drink and talk while others played a game of duel monsters.

"Are they all duelists?" he ask. Jounouchi nodded. "Most of them but a lot of them are refugees we rescue from Marik" he answered. He grimace seeing the tired expressions on all their faces, ready to give up all hope or had given up already. He looked around more seeing them in rags and dirtied faces a lot of them were children. "My Ra…" he only spoke softly to himself.

"Most of them are orphans also…" Jounouchi began.

"…Kaiba runs a small home for them along with Anzu" he finished. At the mention of Anzu's names Yami was pique with concern and curiosity "Where is Anzu?" Yami ask. "She's in Kaibas lab" he responded in a toneless voice. Yami looked away for a moment before facing Jounouchi again.

"Jou…what happen to Anzu…?" he ask.

Jou stiffened at this.

"There's more to her condition than just flashbacks…isn't there?" he ask again his eyes getting intense. "Yami…please, now is not the time to ask these questions…" Jounouchi reply his fist slightly shaking to the questions. Yami stopped seeing that he was in anguish at the mention of Anzu's name.

'Jounouchi…what happen to her which was so horrible that you can't even talk about…?' he thought to himself.

"Tch" Jou spat. Yami looked up to faced into cold blue eyes "Kaiba…" he only said. Kaiba glowered down upon him while Jounouchi looked with a determined gaze. "I heard what your idiots of students did, morons like them is what kill's the rest of us" Kaiba spat. Jou clenched his fist at this but retained his composure.

"It won't happen again" he calmly spoke but inside his blood was boiling at the site of the dragon master before him. "See that it doesn't mutt" he taunted a smirk coming unto his face. Jounouchi gritted his teeth "do you want to start something now!?!" Jou bellowed.

"oh? And get your ass handed to you again?" Kaiba's smirk grew wider "Don't make me laugh" he stated.

"That is enough Kaiba!" Yami interrupted. The brunette sneered down to him "Until you prove you are truly yuugi Motou or his dark then I do not acknowledge your existence except as a force to be terminated" Kaiba stated. Jounouchi growled at this "Are you stupid!?! This is the real thing" jou defended.

"Don't be an idiot! It wouldn't be the first time Marik would try to send in a spy in the form of Yuugi" he spat back.

"Especially to torture her…" he whispered.

"Kaiba, I assure you I am Yuugi's aibou, not some spy of Mariks" he spoke gritting his teeth even saying that accursed name. Kaiba snorted at this "I'll believe it when I see it" he huffed. Their conversation was interrupted by a tone noise. Kaiba raise his wrist . His eyes widen in rage "Someone is trying to break into my lab" he growled.

They were soon interrupted by and the ground shaking from an explosion.

=============================================

"ok, here we are" Seiya said. Yuugi only looked to her wide eyes "Kaiba's crazy!!" he exclaimed.

"Yeah…the guy really doesn't like people intruding on his space" she spoke while getting out what appeared to be a calculator with stray wires. She hooked it up against the security dialer and punched in some numbers overriding the system. The door opened.

"Just a peek" she reminded.

Yuugi nodded. "yes, just a peek" the two entered the cold lifeless room. Yuugi shivered at the mechanical atmosphere while blue light colored the otherwise colorless lair of Seto kaiba.

Seiya abruptly stop as Yuugi gave her a look. She out a finger against her lips and motioned to the side of her.

"Anzu…" he whispered slightly.

Kage embraced the now peaceful body against his own and sighed. Kage….the word meant shadow and in truth he was indeed just a shadow of his former self. How he survived this long he would never know but thanks to the girl in his arms he had survived. Se had felt his same pain…loneliness…and he vowed to be with her from the day of their meeting till the day of their demise, he would live for his mistress.

She was the only thing he had.

A presence unfamiliar caught his attention, they were not alone. He only held the girl tighter preparing for the worse if it was too happen.

(-)

Time seemed to stop for Yuugi just staring at the slumbering girl. Time had been generous to her, giving her the body of a mature adult and the beauty of a woman and no longer a girl while her long brown hair in a braid cascaded off the side of the bed. Looking at her reminded him of what happened to day and he grimaced.

Seiya looked to him "Ok…I think we've been here long enough…" she began.

"Please, just another moment" Yuugi ask

BOOM!!

"What was that?!?!" Yuugi exclaimed. Seiya cursed to herself "We're under attack" she calmly said. Another attack came making the ground shake as random pieces of debris fell from atop.

Yuugi turned hearing a scuffle of footsteps and noticed a flash of black hair going deeper into the lab.

Meanwhile…

"WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!" one of the people scream. "What's going on!?!" Yami exclaimed. Kaiba immediately walked from them readying his deck.

"TAIJYO!!"

Jounouchi turned seeing his cadets in a straight line "Taijyo what do we do!?" one of them ask. Jounouchi stood before them "Attack in stealth we go on the defensive, where's Seiya?"

"We don't know" one of them spoke. "She still must be with Yuugi" he spoke to himself. They were interrupted with another attack "Shit, they must have locked on the chi from the battle earlier on" Jounouchi cursed. "ok, lets go" he motioned his cadets.

"Wait!" Yami called. All turned to him. Yami faced them eyes determined.

"Allow me to join this fight as well" Yami said.

Jou only looked to him dumbfounded.

======================================================================

Mokuba only looked at his brothers machine in admiration in awe; he had often come down here just to admire it's beauty, it power…

The blue eyes fighter

His hand gently touched the beautiful jet fighter admiring the metallic blue paint job, how he dreamed of piloting it so long, it was yet a virgin naught a chance to deflower itself to the skies above. It had took his older brother five years to complete, he had been building this since the beginning of duelist kingdom throughout battle city. He grimaced at this; these were one of the few salvageable things they manage to get before Marik had taken kaiba corporation from them

As well as Kaiba's pride.

He bit his lip and look around. He opened the cok pit and sat in the pilot seat. His hands softly grasp the navigation wheel; how he wish to fly it through the skies and doing some damage to Marik. He sighed who was he kidding his brother would never let him do that hell, he had to sneak just to have some time with the blue eyes fighter.

BOOM!!

He stiffened; they were under attack. Like he could do anything, his brother would only make him stay where it was safe. He gritted his teeth he wanted to fight also, to take some slack from his brothers hand and be alongside him fighting against the forces of evil.

My what a romantic he could be sometimes

BOOM BOOM BOOM!!

Mokuba eyes widened; this attack was serious, as multiple explosions ranged out.

This could be the chance, dare he make the risk?

"Yuugi are you sure you saw someone down here?"

"No doubt about it!!" Yuugi said as they walked down the stairs. His eyes widened seeing all the machinery, and spare parts 'Who knew Kaiba was part Frankenstein…" Yuugi thought.

"Yuugi!" Mokuba called out. "Mokuba; what the hell are you doing here!?!" Seiya exclaimed. Mokuba snorted "I can ask that exact same question" he countered. Before they could continue with their conversation more explosions rang out followed by screams of monsters and people.

"It's getting bad out there…" Yuugi spoke.

"That's it; they need help this time!" Mokuba exclaimed and began pushing some buttons in the cok pit. The jet suddenly came to life as the engine roared.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?!" Seiya screamed over the engine. "Mokuba wait" Yuugi cried running towards the jet. As he began climbing another explosion shook the foundation, making the duelist fall inside the passenger seat in the back as the glass closed over them. "Fasten your seatbelt Yuugi!" Mokuba ordered. The wall which was actually a rising door opened.

"WAIT!!"

The jet sped off thorough the opening at great speed until with a burst of energy the jet entered into the skies. Seiya ran but stop "MOKUBA, YUUGI!!!" she called out.

"Yuugi…"

Seiya turned "Anzu-san…"

======================================================================

"Stay close to me" Jounochi said as Yami nodded. He looked to his arm at the newly christen millennium band on him. "You remember the procedures right?" Jou ask.

Yami nodded.

"OK RUNTS! LETS GO!" Jounouchi commanded as the cadets summoned monsters as means of fight and transportation. "RED-EYES!" Jou shouted as the monster materialize before him. He jumped onto the dragons back with Yami from behind. With great force red eyes flew to the sky where the enemies ravaged the world and their home.

"RED EYES ATTACK!"

The dragon roared unleashing it's flame disintegrating the monsters. He made a signal informing his cadets to move in. "Hang on Yami!" Jou spoke as his monster accelerated dodging attacks like an acrobat performing. Yami held tightly as he could trying not to lose his lunch or vomit.

"THAT'S IT RED EYES!" Jou cheered a slight smirk on his face. That was until they were hit from behind and red eyes began to plummet. "RED EYES!" Jou shouted the monster trying to regain control. Yami lost his footing and soon was falling as well.

"YAMI!!!" Jounouchi shouted. Yami immediately started his duel disk.

"DARK MAGICIAN!" he exclaimed closing his eyes preparing for the impact. It never came. Opening his eyes he saw that he was slowly going down until he gently landed on the ground. "What…?" he ask to himself. He looked up to the sky seeing a descending silhouette figuring making it's way down until it too landed on it's feet onto the ground.

""D-Dark magician…" Yami spoke amazed. The magician affirmed it with a nod. Another barrage of attacks interrupted the moment as monsters lunged at Yami.

"DARK MAGICIAN, DARK MAGIC ATTACK!!" Yami commanded. His monster heed him wiping out the vermin in a single phase. "YAMI!!"

The pharaoh turned to see Jou running towards him "Are you ok?!" he ask. Yami nodded "Yes…but I feel fine, my strength doesn't feel drained…" Yami said. Jou raised a brow "It's your puzzle, since you have a larger power source I guess your life force isn't as taken as much as the others" Jou explained.

"WATCH IT!!" he shouted pushing Yami out of an attacks way.

"Awww, you missed" spoke a voice. Yami looked up "Who are you!?!" he demanded. Jou growled at this "Hakkai.." he spat staring at the female. She grinned at this "Destruction? Don't mind if I do!" and with that the monsters laid waste to nearby buildings.

"Heh, we're going to wipe you out soon enough" she grinned wider. She noticed someone behind him and gasped "It can't be…" she began but soon broke into a laughing fit "Well, looks like the game king has come back from the dead after all" she taunted. Jou started his duel disk.

As well as Yami.
