"Hey, has anyone seen Anzu this morning?" asked Yuugi as he sat down with Ryou and Jounouchi at lunch.
"Iie," Ryou shook his head, "Did she not walk to school with you this morning?" Ryou asked, well aware that Yuugi made it his job to escort Anzu to school. Not that Yuugi had a crush on her or anything.
"No, I even went up to her front door, knocked, rang the doorbell, shouted, nothing worked," Yuugi hung his head in disappointment.
"Aw cheer up Yuge," Jounouchi said comfortingly, "She's probably just a little ill or something and couldn't answer the door."
Yuugi instantly brightened, "Yeh, you're right," Jounouchi grinned.
"Hey minna-san," the three turned to see Ryuuji, a half-eaten apple in one hand.
"Konichiwa Ryuuji-kun," Ryou replied smiling, "How are things?"
"Oh, good, good," Ryuuji replied smiling deviously, "Honda's a bit upset though," he gestured to the brunette who was moping in a corner of the lunch room.
"Why?" Yuugi asked.
Ryuuji snickered, "Shizuka-chan was with Kaiba-san," Ryuuji replied grinning.
There as silence, Ryuuji had stopped chasing after Shizuka a while ago and it was common knowledge that he was a playboy. However, even Ryuuji's experience with jealous or angry boys didn't prepare him for Jounouchi.
The blonde jumped up with a roar and began trying to strangle Ryuuji, "Ack, chocking," the black haired boy stuttered, the dice in his left ear bouncing wildly.
"What did you say?" Jounouchi demanded with a growl shaking Ryuuji vigorously.
"Was that a growl I heard inu?" Jounouchi turned sharply to see Seto Kaiba smirking down at him.
"Where's my sister?" Jounouchi demanded angrily.
"Onii-san I'm right here," Shizuka stepped out from behind Kaiba.
Jounouchi didn't let up one bit, he grabbed her arm and pulled her two him, "What did you do to her Kaiba, I swear if you hurt her I'll-"
"I did nothing of the sort inu," Seto said, his smirk twisting into an angry frown.
"Oh yeh," Jounouchi sneered, "And why should I believe that?"
"Ask you're sister," Jounouchi went redder and Seto smirked again.
"Seto-san was only helping me with my math homework Onii-san," Shizuka said, she looked at her brother sternly, "Now apologise immediately."
"But Shizuka-chan," Jounouchi whined.
"No buts Onii-san," Shizuka replied crossing her arms and giving him a look that said, 'you'd better do what I say or else'.
Jounouchi turned stiffly to Kaiba, his eyes on the floor and his teeth clenched, he mumbled something.
"What's that inu? I didn't quite hear that?" Seto taunted, cupping a hand to his ear and smirking in amused sort of way.
"I said," Jounouchi said stiffly, "gomen naisi."
"Good inu," Seto smirked again and then the bell went. Jounouchi stormed off, Honda joining him at the door. Yuugi left while talking to Ryou and Ryuuji was about the only one that saw Seto Kaiba's hand drift over Shizuka's rear before departing. Shizuka blushed and hurried away.
Ryuuji laughed, he received several weird looks from the people who thought he was laughing at nothing. Who would have guest? The sister and the rival? Now that was funny.
Ryuuji looked down at his watch and gulped, he was late, and not just late, late for the class with the meanest, most detention-happy teacher in the entire school. He grabbed his bag and books and sprinted towards his next class.
---Anzu and Malik---
Malik looked out the window and then looked at Anzu, "Are you sure you have enough room?"
"Malik, for the millionth time yes, it's a mansion for crying out loud, the thing must have around six bedrooms and that's without the loft and my room," Anzu sighed heavily.
"Oh yeh," Malik grinned and rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment, "I forgot that." Anzu shook her head amusedly at him and the bus pulled up at their stop.
"So, do you have any family?" Anzu asked the two of them got off the bus at the same stop Anzu and Yuugi waited at for school in the morning.
Malik was about to answer when Anzu panicked, "Oh my God, school!"
"You mean you go to school?" Malik asked.
Anzu didn't hear him, "I missed school, I completely forgot, oh how could I have been so stupid?" she ran a through her hair.
Malik grabbed her wrists, "Calm down will you, you're freaking out the kids," Malik nodded towards a pair of toddlers who were staring wide eyed and the stern faced mother who ushered them away hastily.
Anzu took a deep breath, "Okay, I'm calm, it's just, I have a perfect record and…" she trailed off.
"Oh come on, if you're records perfect then they'll let you have a sick leave," he grinned.
"But I'm not," then she realised, "Oh, I get it."
"I take it you've never even thought about skipping?" Malik raised a curious eyebrow, Anzu shook her head blushing, he smirked, "Thought not."
"Come on, my house is just up the road," she took hold of his hand and began to pull him along behind her.
---Isis---
She remembered collapsing outside some shop and then people in white coats. Now, there was a beep, an annoying beep that did little to improve her headache.
She cracked her eyes open, "Well hello there," a cheerful sounding voice rang in her eyes and she looked to see a chestnut haired man in a long white coat holding a clipboard, he had an Irish accent.
"Hello," Isis mumbled, "where am I?" she tried to sit up, hurt like hell, but at least there was movement.
"I wouldn't be trying to do that if I were you miss," the young man directed warmly putting a hand on her should, easing her back down onto soft pillows. "As for where you are, you're in Domino hospital and if you're feeling up to it, I'd like you to answer some questions." He smiled widely again.
"Alright," Isis muttered, not quite conscious yet, she felt like she'd been drugged which wasn't unbelievable. Lord knows what they must have pumped into her.
"Do you have a name miss?"
Isis thought for a moment, she shouldn't use her real name, just in case people were looking for her, "Ishtal Ishizu," she replied.
"Right-y-ho miss, you wouldn't happen to have any family in these parts would ya?" he smiled jokingly.
Isis was about to reply no, she didn't want to give her brother away and then she realised something. If this was a hospital surely it could find Anzu for her. "Yes," she replied slowly, "Yes I remember now, I was trying to find my mother's cousin's daughter's cousin's aunt's daughter," she finished.
The man's eyes widened, "Hm, that be some family you got there miss, you wouldn't happen to be able to give us a name now would you?"
"Yes, yes I would, Mazaki, Anzu Mazaki," and so it began.
---Rishid---
The dark skin man groaned as he was forced to his knees, his wrists painfully bound behind his back.
"Where are they Rishid?" a voice boomed, Rishid did not answer, nor did he look up, it had been a rhetorical question anyway. The voice continued, "I told you to watch them, where are they now Rishid?"
This time Rishid answered, "I do not know sir," he couldn't see beyond his nose it was so dark wherever he was.
The voice sighed heavily, "Well then, if they are no longer in you're keeping then you are of no further used to me, dispose of him."
Rishid felt himself clumsily hoisted to his feet and dragged, there was the sound of doors opening and closing as he was pulled along lightless hallways. Suddenly, his pupils dilated as a ball of light was held in front of him. The light was coming from a brown orb at the send of a staff.
"Mana?" Rishid gasped, the little sorceress, well apprentice at any rate, had been the one to cast docile spells on Malik and Isis when they were in the werewolf state.
"Ssh," she whispered, "Guards are many and magic is small," she said untying his hands, "You must go, find slayer, she is in very much danger."
It was sometimes hard to translate the Egyptian's fragmented English but Rishid understood, "But if she's a slayer…"
"She knows not of powers, evil knows this," it was dangerous to utter the true name of that evil while still in his domain. "We must flee, I am traitor now," Mana hissed as she grabbed a pair of cloaks and flung one at Rishid.
"But Mahado?" he looked puzzled.
Mana's excited eyes dulled slightly as she held up a card with a picture of the Black Magician on it, "Until evil is gone, Mahado's spirit is locked, Mana must help defeat evil and set master free."
"Alright Mana," Rishid said, "Lead the way," she put out her light and took him by the hand, leading him through the darkness that was nothing but black to him but her magic eyes could see through it with a light of their own.
