A/N: (ahem) I'msorryI'msorryI'msorryI'msorryI'msorryI'msorryI'msorryI'msorry

A/N: It's been awhile since I have updated... Sorry! You can blame Sims. I'm addicted to that game! I managed to pry myself from it to type this chapter. I also lost the notebook in which this chapter is written so tonight I was like, "Screw this! I'm gonna improvise!"


"So, who was it you found?" Yugi asked as he, Seto, Serenity, Yami and Tristen jogged blindly with Tea and Duke along the dark beach. His question went unanswered.

They saw a glow in the night. A glow they recognized as fire.

When they arrived at the fire they saw Joey and Mokuba sitting next to the fire. The three bodies were lying next to the fire on the opposite side of Joey and Mokuba.

When Serenity saw who they were, she gasped, along with Yugi. Seto's eyes widened while Yami asked slowly, "Are they who I think they are?"

Duke nodded, "Yeah. It's Malik, Ishizu and Odion." Everyone stared at them, not sure exactly how to react, then Serenity asked, "Are they okay?"

"Yeah," Duke answered once again, "At least they're breathing..." They stood silent until Tea yawned.

"I think we should sleep a bit," Yami said his eyes were still on the Ishtars.

"Yeah," Tristen agreed, "But, someone should keep watch..."

"...Incase they wake up or..." Joey added.

"...Someone comes." Mokuba finished.

"So?" Tea asked, "Who will stay up first?" Silence.

Seto grunted and said, "I will."

And with that, everyone said good-night and hoped for a brighter tomorrow.


The next morning, the gang checked on the Ishtars who, unfortunately, were not awake. Yami checked their pulse and confirmed that the three were still alive.

They all sat around the still burning campfire (the people who kept watch made sure it kept burning) eating raspberries, when suddenly they heard a groan.

They looked toward the sound to see Ishizu sit up slowly. Everyone, but Seto, ran to her side.

"Ishizu!" Tea cried, "Are you okay?"

Serenity kneeled next to her. "What happened?" The others all gather around asking the same questions. Ishizu looked bewildered, suddenly she noticed her younger brother, Malik, lying next to her and she gently shook him, "Malik, Malik, please wake up." Everyone went silent, waiting for the young Ishtar's reply.

They didn't wait long. Malik's eyes slowly opened. "Huh? Wha?"

"Malik, are you alright?" Ishizu asked.

"Yeah...Where are we? What are you guys doing here?" He asked referring to the gang.

"To answer your questions," Duke replied, "I wish we knew and we're lost."

"What happened to you guys?" Joey asked.

Ishizu sighed, remembering the events which took place. Malik frowned.

"Really, why don't you guys tell us?" Yugi prompted.


A/N: Yeah, I know. It's very short. Sorry! I have the next chapter ready to be typed I'll try to update by Monday.
