Okay, guys! I finally got some sleep, but again it is 11:55pm when I am writing this.

Malik: Hi, guys! Remember what the guys said last chapter? Marik is taking a break.

:) Yes, so I get to spend time with Malik, something that Marik wanted to do but oh well.

Malik: - laughs - He'll just have to wait until the story is over, right sis?

Right. Anyway, on with it! Review responses are at the bottom of the story. That way it won't take up too much space. I also accept constructive criticism if you have any. "Update soon" or "MORE" or one word reviews will just be ignored from now on, okay? It's kind of pointless replying to them after a while, if you know what I mean.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh. Kazuki Takahashi and Konami owns it and the cards as well.

Hidden Emotions: Act 5

Kohaku walked out of her bedroom, grabbing a medical kit incase someone had an injury before she got there. She walked into the kitchen where Ishizu was. Kohaku was shaking as she got to the door, but Ishizu stopped her.

"What's wrong, Kohaku?"Ishizu asked. "Why are you shaking?"

"Oh…"Kohaku was about to break down, but she held it in. "Ishizu, Malik talked to me by mind, he said that a rare hunter cornered him and Marik in a dead end in an alley and he is going to kill them…"

"Nani?!?!?! Oh, dear, we better get going, then!"Ishizu exclaimed, but Kohaku stopped her. "What are you doing?"

"I wanted to be… able to save Malik on my own, Ishizu. I… hope you understand."

Ishizu paused for a minute before nodding, knowing how much saving Malik meant to her. "All right, but you keep them and yourself safe, you hear me?"

Kohaku nodded, smiling, racing out of the house, leaving Ishizu there with her thoughts.

Malik clung to Marik, who held him tight in his grasp. "What do you want?"Marik asked.

"H-How come there are two of you?"the hunter wasn't expecting this.

Marik smirked. "Maybe you should try getting your eye sight checked."

"I can see perfectly well, thank you!"the hunter scowled. "Just for that, I'll kill the young one." He pointed his gun at Malik, who whimpered in Marik's arms.

"I can send you to the Shadow Realm. You wouldn't want that, now, would you?"Marik growled, putting a hand on Malik's head, rubbing it softly because Malik was crying.

"No… I-I wouldn't,"the hunter replied.

"Then leave my Malik alone,"Marik growled in anger.

Suddenly, a gust of wind flew by them, and the hunter looked around. There stood Kohaku and her double, Kaoko, with the Millennium Locket in their grasp.

"Be gone!"they shouted, and the hunter was in the Shadow Realm.

"Sister!"Malik exclaimed, hugging her. "You came!"

Kohaku chuckled. "Of course I did. I told you I'd do anything for you."

"What do we do now, though?"Kaoko asked. "Surely more than one rare hunter will be back for another try?"

"Yes… so I think it is a good idea we try and hide ourselves for a little while. If anyone of us is found walking amongst the people in the streets by a hunter, they could follow us home,"Kohaku said.

"Okay, sis, but how do we get to wherever we want to go?"Malik asked.

"I could turn anyone of us invisible until we get to our destination. Once inside, I can turn you normal."

"Cool, okay!"Malik exclaimed. He was now happy that the rare hunter was gone. But… there would be more after them… okay, him…

The rare hunters were at their base again, discussing what had happened to the other hunter that failed in killing the boy as they liked to call him.

"We shall not allow any of the Ishtars to stand in our way of killing the boy,"the boss of the hunters base said.

"But all of the Ishtars have mysterious powers that we know nothing about, master! How are we supposed to defeat an enemy like that?"a hunter asked.

The boss thought for a minute. "Leave that up to me. We shall need to take down the girl who took care of the first hunter… Kohaku was her name. Sinna, I shall send you out to dispose of her."

"A-Are you s-sure, master?"a hunter, Sinna asked.

"I am quite sure. If you fail, another will follow you… now be gone!"

Malik, Marik, Kohaku and Kaoko were all invisible as they made their way back to their house. Nobody could hear them except each other, which was a good thing for them. When they arrived inside the house, they became visible.

Nobody was in the kitchen. It was odd, because usually Ishizu or Odeon were in the kitchen. But then, Malik felt someone squeezing the life out of him in a hug.

"Oh, Malik, you're all right! I was so worried!"

"Er… Ishizu, choking, not breathing…"Malik said slowly.

"Sorry, Malik,"she blushed in emberrassment and let go. "So, where is the hunter that followed you two?"

"In the Shadow Realm for good,"Kohaku replied.

"That's good." She paused. "I never heard you come in."

"We were invisible, just incase another rare hunter tried to follow us,"Kohaku explained to Ishizu their plan for the next few days.

"I see,"Ishizu said. "Good plan, but, what do we do if we are in a building with other people and let's say, a rare hunter may find us and peers in the window and watches us?"

They all sweat dropped. They hadn't thought of that.

"I could make it so we are invisble to the rare hunters ONLY and all the time."

"Well, then, I have no protests against that idea,"Ishizu said.

Kohaku giggled. After that, Malik and Marik went off to Malik's bed room. They spent the rest of the day watching movies and eating popcorn & pop, until Malik fell asleep in Marik's arms.

Kohaku: Hiya! Um... I have to point out a few things. The gang may not be making much of an appearance to this fic unless Malik & Marik are in school. Also, I know the M/M romance is kinda short and it stinks so I was wondering if anyone wanted me to do a lemone/lime at the end? Please review and tell me. Constructive criticism is also needed to make this story better & longer.

Also, I thank you all for making this a good story. Especially Dark Magician Girl / Hikaru for being my first reviewer. Please everyone continue to review this! Maybe even my other yaoi ones as well!
