Phoenix87 - I really don't mind the questions. I like them. Yup Mai was one of the biker girls. She'll be back later in the story too.

shadows of chaos61 - Bakura appearance is just the beginning, lol. ::points to the HPYGO story:: Update it! Pleaseeeeee! ::begs::

Pysche - I forgot to mentioned that you've only figured out Part 1 of the story. There's a lot more stuff later on but no hints were given yet so I doubt if you'll guess what happens unless you're able to read my mind. ::grins:: Knowing you, you'd make a wild guess and be right though, lol.::goes to await email notification that 'Chef Yami' is updated::

The following takes place between 1:00pm and 2:00pm

1:00PM

"Never fear, Malik is here," Malik's dramatic voice called out through the CTU control room.

"It's about time," Seto growled as he walked down the stairs from his office. Behind him was Yami who was remaining silent.

"Nice to see you too Kaiba," Malik grumbled.

"Kisara!" Seto snapped looking over his shoulder as the blue haired agent strolled over to them and handed Malik the disk. "Get to work."

"What about Isis' pardon?" Malik demanded to know as Seto started to walk away from him.

"You'll get it when you get that disk is decoded."

"I better," Malik mumbled before his eyes finally fell on Yami. "Get him out of here! He killed my brothers!"

Yami frowned at Malik as he remembered what had happened. Three years ago Yami had led a mission in an attempt to bring down the Ishtar's organization led by Marik Ishtar. Yami and his team had blown up the Ishtar's headquarter with both Marik and Rishid inside. There wasn't even enough body parts left for a positive identification for either of them but it would have been impossible for them to escape.

"Yami please go back to my office now," Seto ordered with a small sigh. Yami glared at both of them but did what he was told. "Is that better?" Seto asked turning his attention back to the young hacker.

"Keep him away from me," Malik growled while giving Seto a death glare. Any of the past times Malik had worked there they had made sure that Yami was always busy and couldn't be around. Malik had heard about his cousin and was glad that Yami was now suffering the way he did.

"Don't worry, I will," Seto reassured him. "Just crack that code."

"Fine." The sooner he cracked the code and got out of there the better.

1:14PM

Bakura cocked his head as he tried listening to the conversation that was going up front between the two guards and the bus driver. Apparently their route was going to have to be changed due to some roads being blocked off.

A huge grin appeared on Bakura's face, as he knew the blocked road was no accident. Turning his head to look out the window, Bakura was not surprised when he saw a motorcycle race by, it's rider having long blonde hair streaming out from under her helmet.

Keeping his eye on the motorcycle, Bakura watched as it zoomed in front of the bus before skidding across the road, it's rider thrown off and was now lying motionless in the middle of the road.

The driver of the bus slammed on the breaks before they ran over the poor girl. Bakura then watched with amusement as one of the guards hurried off the bus to see if she was okay while the other guard and the bus driver looked on. Both were so involved with watching the girl that they didn't see the other motorcycle that zoomed to a stop at the bus' door, it's rider with an assault rifle in her hands.

Bullets flew through the air as the woman rushed through the door that had foolishly been left open. Back on the street the other woman had sprung to her feet as soon as the guard was near and jabbed a knife into his gut. She then hurried back to her discarded motorcycle, picked it up and sped off.

"Hurry up Vivian!" Bakura ordered as the second girl grabbed the guard's keys and hurried over to the tanned Egyptian prisoner. Around them the other prisoners were yelling but they both ignored them.

"Got it!" the Chinese girl cried as Bakura's locks clicked free. Quickly she shoved a folded slip of paper into Bakura's hand before they both hurried off the bus. Once they were off it, Vivian pulled a grenade from her belt and tossed is into the bus. The bus exploded as they hurried towards Vivian's motorcycle.

Suddenly Vivian gave a small cry. Turning around Bakura watched as she slumped lifelessly to the ground, blood oozing out of her back. Looking up Bakura saw the guard that Mai gutted, lying on the ground with his gun pointed at the sexy Egyptian. With a growl, Bakura grabbed Vivian's assault rifle and sprayed a mass of bullets at the guard who dropped dead to the ground.

With a satisfied smirk, Bakura glanced at the paper still in his hand before swinging a leg over the motorcycle and tearing off down the street.

Bakura didn't have far to go before he reached the underground parking garage that was instructed on the paper Vivian had given him. Riding down to the lowest level, Bakura smiled when he saw the convertible and the extremely nervous person sitting in the drivers seat. Said person was paying no attention to him, so Bakura, quietly shut off the motorcycle and walked the rest of the way, sneaking up on the other white-haired person.

"Miss me?" Bakura asked covering the driver's eyes with his hands from behind. The driver gave small gasp of surprise before he recognized Bakura's voice.

"Bakura!" the person cried turning around and burying his face into the Egyptian prisoner's shoulder. Bakura gently patted the other's head.

"Don't get all girly on me now Ryou," Bakura told him. "It hasn't been that long!" Bakura would never admit it but he had missed his gentle lover.

"I bought you some clothes," Ryou said as he pulled back and wiped at his tears. Quickly Bakura changed into the black jeans, stripped T-shirt and black trench coat that Ryou had provided him.

"Now what?" Bakura asked once he was dressed and had slid into the passenger seat of Ryou's car.

"Umm…we're supposed to go back to the hotel while we await a call," Ryou informed him as he thought it over trying to remember his orders. "Hey, what happened to Vivian? She was supposed to have dropped you off here."

"Dead," Bakura grumbled as he tried ignoring the shock and sad look on Ryou's face. Ryou never did take death too well. Bakura figured it had something to do with losing both his mother and sister at such a young age and then being pretty much abandoned by his father.

"At least you're safe," Ryou softly replied as he started up the car. "And we're together again."

"Exactly," Bakura said as he leaned over and placed a kiss to the side of Ryou's head.

1:33PM

"He's such a little prick."

"It was you decision to bring him here," Seto reminded his petite lover. Once again the pair were back in Seto's office with Yami back on Seto's computer.

"His brother was a murderer."

"I know that," Seto replied while rolling his eyes. "You don't have to tell me that."

"Ugh!" Yami groaned in frustration as he stood up and turned away from the computer. "I can't stand this anymore! I have to get out of here!"

"And do what?" Seto demanded to know. "Mahado could be anywhere in the city."

"I don't know but this waiting is killing me!" Before Seto could reply the door to his office opened drawing both of their attention.

"Guys I think you need to see this," Kisara said barging into the room. Grabbing a remote control Kisara clicked on Seto's TV to a news channel. On the screen was a woman reporting with a ruined building far behind her with smoke rising out of it indicating that the building had recently had a fire put out. As the two agents listened to the report, both their eyes widen in surprise.

"How long ago was this?" Seto demanded to know turning his attention back to Kisara.

"A half hour ago."

"And we're just finding out about this now!" Yami growled in frustration.

"We don't know yet if Mahado or Ishtar was involved," Kisara informed them both.

"It was them," Yami replied. "I know it." He then turned his attention to his lover. "You know it to Seto, don't you? Let me go investigate it!"

"Kisara, you're dismissed," Seto said ignoring Yami. With a nod of her head, Kisara exited the office once again.

"Seto, please! I'm useless here! I'm a field agent, there's only so much I can do with computers!"

"Fine, go," Seto said with a wave of his hand. He knew that keeping Yami there was like keeping a wild animal caged up. "I'll call if something comes up else."

"Thank you," Yami replied before quickly placing a kiss to Seto's lips. Yami then hurried out of Seto's office before he could change his mind.

1:45PM

"It's done," Isis informed the others as she hung up her cell phone. "Ryou and Bakura are on their way to a safe place right now to lay low for a few hours."

"Ryou's here?" Mahado asked, his interest perked. As far as he knew Ryou was their employer who they had met in London.

"Yes."

"We need to talk," Mahado demanded as he grabbed her arm and dragged her away from the others. "What the hell is going on here Isis?! You're getting all these mysterious phone calls, you know things that I don't know. Is Ryou our employer or isn't he?"

"You're on a need to know basis Mahado," Isis evenly told him. "Everyone is."

"And you're not?"

"Of course I am. If you don't trust me, you can answer the phone next time." With that Isis shoved her cell phone into Mahado's hands. She wasn't worried; she knew that he wouldn't call her, at least not yet.

"You two need a vacation," Shada told the both of them as he wandered over to them both with Karim close behind. "You never used to fight this much." The pair continued to glare at each other as they ignored Shada.

"I can think of a way to relieve some tension," Karim said as he placed an arm around Isis' shoulders. Disgusted, Isis rolled her eyes and strolled away from the three men.

1:53PM

Malik sighed as he typed away on the computer he was given use of. He was grateful he was not being bothered by anyone and with the exception of a minor incident when Yami Mutou had decided to make a quick appearance in the control room he had little distraction. After not even an hour he was already almost completed decoding the disk.

With a bored yawn, Malik pressed one last button and the disk was finally decoded. He briefly thought about getting someone right away but he figured since he was the one who cracked the code; he deserved the right to take a quick look at what was on the disk.

As the information came up, Malik tried to look as if he was still busy. Just because he had been left alone thus far did not mean that someone would not check up on him anytime soon. That Kisara woman and Mana the girl tech were famous for keeping an annoying eye on him whenever he was called in to do work.

As the information appeared on the computer screen, Malik's eyes widened in shock, when he saw what it was. It was all kinds of files a certain individual.

"Bakura?" he whispered as he recognized the picture of his longtime friend.

2:00PM

A/N - Like with Honda, I didn't think anyone would mind me killing off Vivian. I personnally like her but a lot of people seem to hate her for some reason.
