"What were you thinking?" Anzu's mother roared over the phone. Anzu winced and pulled it away from her ear and tenderly rubbed it. Regrettably, her mother had found out about the suspension and what was worse, she heard two of the bands new songs over the radio, System and Forsaken. "I didn't raise you to be a little psycho!"
Houmei and Tohru both winced, the new songs were not that popular with parents. In the past three days they had received 40 hateful e-mails, 50 hateful letters and 3 threats. As the group sat around Anzu's room at the Hoshi head quarters they listened in on the conversation.
Keiko finally stood and took the phone from Anzu, but as the older girl opened her mouth to defend Anzu, her mother cut her off.
"If you say so much as one syllable, I'll hunt you down and gut you like a pig!"
"Oh my…" Keiko handed the phone back to Anzu with a shocked look across her face.
"Mom, I know, it's just a song! I'm not going to start killing people, you know me!" Anzu regretted even trying to yell at her mother. The older Mazaki woman went off on her like an atomic weapon. She shoved the phone further away from her but her mothers enraged shouts could still be heard.
Terrified she dropped the phone and jumped onto the bed, covering behind a swirl eyed Tohru. "Mazaki-san reminds me of Kyo-kun." She said dizzily. Keiko quickly joined them, surrounding pillows around the girls as if Anzu's mother would come through the phone at any given moment. Houmei rolled her eyes and walked out of the room as controlled as possible with out fleeing in terror.
Amelda looked up from his book when he saw Houmei walking out of Anzu's room. He and the girl had never gotten along for numerous reasons. He thought she was too loud, she said he looked like a whore to start.
"Is happy hour over? Darn, I forgot the cookies," he said, snapping his fingers.
She through him a dirty look, "No, Anzu's mom is on the phone." She smirked when she saw him cringe. "Better hurry Amelda, Lady's Night at the club starts at 7. Or are you going for bingo?"
He sneered at and returned to his book, "Its 6:30, you're going to miss your stribarobics class." Something soft hit him in the head; he sneered but continued reading until the door slammed shut. He set the book down on his dresser and pulled the fabric off his head.
Amelda stared wide eyed at what was in his hand. Anzu's bra. His eye twitched and he looked at the door that connected their rooms, it was shut. How did she get this! I knew that girl was trouble in a small form and this proves it! I can't give this back to her! She'll kill me! Ah Ha! With a fast motion, he stuffed the bra into his shirt drawer.
"Hey Melly!" Oh…crap. Amelda cringed, it was Varon.
The brown haired youth jumped into his room, arms full of chips, popcorn and several movies. "Boys Movie night! Booyah!" Amelda covered his mouth, "Are you insane? The girls are having a sleep over in there!"
Varon smirked perversely. "Really…" A girl's sleep over! Score! "Hey girls-!" Amelda jumped and covered his mouth but it was too late.
Three brown haired girls looked at them through the door way. "What Varon? Did it get caught in the zipper again?" Keiko asked tartly. Varon glared at her, "Funny Sheila, very funny." Like Houmei and Amelda, the two did not get along in the very least. Varon cracking rude comments at her every chance he got and Keiko insulting his capability to do…well, anything.
Tohru looked at the movies and assorted munchies in the wild haired boy's arms. "Were you having a party?" she asked innocently.
Varon nodded and shoved Amelda away from him, "Right we were!" he said happily. "Care to join us ladies? We've got South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut." He said offhandedly. Keiko and Tohru looked as if they were going to be sick. Varon swallowed and changed tactics, "I mean we have chips and popcorn." This won the two girls over.
"Are you in, Anzu?" Varon asked.
Anzu bit her lip, "I don't know, I'm not supposed to be having fun…" The other blue eyed teens gave her the Puppy Look Advanced. Anzu tried not to look but gave in. "But hey! TGIF!"
Amelda rolled his eyes. Morons. He thought to himself.
Anzu tugged on his forearm, he looked at her broadly. "What?"
She frowned, "You're coming as well, and I'm not going to be left alone with Varon and a dirty movie." He smirked and leaned forward.
"And what makes you think you're safe with me?" he whispered into her ear, sending Goosebumps down her spine. She stood on her toes and whispered back, "Because you're asking me that."
He pulled away, confused before stalking out the room, red faced with a giggling Anzu following.
The lobby was filled with couches and pillows thrown in every direction. A big screen TV sat against a wall with Varon trying to figure out the DVD player.
Keiko and Tohru were on a love seat, giggling madly at his expense. Raphael sat in the only chair, reading the paper. A huge boy…err…"man" was seated on the couch, talking roughly half of it up with his muscle mass, and staring at Tohru with a glint in his eyes. A terrified Nikolai was seated on the other end, when Amelda walked in he looked ready to bolt.
Anzu and Amelda seated themselves on a pile of blue pillows. Anzu sprawled out and Amelda sitting stiffly.
"Yes!" Varon rushed back to his seat, next to Nikolai as the movie began to play.
"You said Americans made this movie?"
"Yeah! I heard it's good, clean, family fun. Right Raphael?"
"What ever,"
Shut your fucking face uncle fucker!
"Varon, what's an uncle fucker?"
00
"Wah!"
"Don't look at it!"
"That is an insult to the woman anatomy!"
"Varon! This is rated R! What were you thinking!"
"R-antastic family fun?"
"That's not even a word you idiot!"
All eyes turned to glare at the boy, who squirmed in his seat.
"Ahhahahaha!" The heat was taken off the boy when Amelda burst out laughing. The French boy was being mauled by guard dogs and swearing like a sailor.
Shit! Shit!
The large boy stood and gruffly pushed his way out of the room, knocking Varon over. The young Aussie leapt back on his feet and raised his fists, "Watch it, Buckley!" The boy known as Buckley yelled something in a foreign language, it was nothing like their native language that was beautiful and soft, and it seemed rough and harsh.
Anzu covered her ears and winced. Tohru whimpered and covered her ears. Keiko covered her ears and clamped her eyes shut. The men in the room couldn't understand what the girls were acting so strange.
"I don't even know what you're saying ya' bloody git!" Varon yelled back to the large mammoth.
A ring on Buckley's massive finger began to glow. Nikolai's eyes widened and his hand went to an owl necklace deep inside his shirt and began reciting a mantra in a foreign language.
Amelda's eyes widened and he looked quickly to Varon, who nodded back. That fool! Dartz never should have trusted him with the stone! He's as filthy as the rest of the human race! Amelda hissed to himself and quickly concentrated his own stone of the Orichalcos.
Varon nodded when he saw Amelda concentrating; now all he had to do was keep the big lug busy. Good, he thought to himself. Those girls are too terrified of his language to realize what we're doing. This was good, if any of them discovered what they were up to…then Dartz's plan of "termination of employment" would have to commence sooner than expected.
"Just stop it! Stop yelling! Stop! Stop! Stop!" Keiko screamed. "I don't want to hear it anymore!"
Varon used this as his chance and tackled Buckley, knocking both of them out of sight. Anzu and Tohru rushed to their friend as soon as they heard her yell. "Keiko, are you alright?" Tohru asked the older girls, feeling her fore head.
"Wah! Keiko-chan! You're burning up!" she cried in panic and began to hyperventilate. "She's got a fever! We have to call the police! No doctor! Do doctors make house calls! What if we're in a hotel!
Anzu grabbed Tohru by the shoulders and gave her a light shake, "Calm down Tohru!" After a few uneasy sobs the girl silenced herself. "Now, does Keiko have someone that might now about her when she gets sick? Any allergies?"
Tohru thought deeply for a moment before responding, "Yusuke-san! Yusuke-san knows everything about her." Anzu handed Tohru her cell phone and the girl dialed and instantly began to blabber to the person on the other line.
Anzu felt Keiko suddenly fall back against her and snapped at Amelda, "Do something!"
He stood up and glared at her, "Such as?"
Anzu glared at him wickedly before looking around the room until she spotted Nikolai, clutching his necklace and rocking back and forth. "Get Nikolai out of here." She nearly yelled.
Nikolai looked up sharply at her, "You don't like me?" He said in his native tongue. "What did I do wrong? I'll fix it! Please give me another chance!" Was she mad at him? He didn't want her to be mad at him! His mother had been made at him…and then she left.
"I'm sorry!" He all but wailed until Amelda picked him up by his waist and carried him swiftly out of the room. Nikolai began to fight against Amelda's grip, trying to get back to Anzu. It's wasn't Anzu he was seeing, it was his mother.
They looked so much alike, same brown locks, same warm blue eyes and caring personality. He didn't want to lose that again. "Let me go!"
Amelda let him go alright, he dropped the boy outside the hallway and shook his shoulders roughly and spoke in near perfect Greek, "Stop that! That girl is sick, Anzu is taking care of her, you understand that don't you?"
Nikolai sniffed and wiped a few tears away with his sleeve. "Why did she yell at me?" he asked meekly.
Amelda took and breathe before answering, children were his strong point, he enjoyed their company, but it was the adults he couldn't stand.Keiko is sick, she didn't want you getting sick too."
"But I won't get sick! I promise!"
"Stop it. You've forgotten what this "Family" is about didn't you?"
"No-just that I like Anzu and…and…"
"There are no ands about it, grow attactched to her all you want, it will only get harder when the day comes that you two will be enemies. I won't lie to you, it is going to hurt."
Nikolai looked at him with teary eyes before running past him and around a corner. As the boy ran past a serene painting of a family of deer, the baby leapt out of the painting ad stared wide eyed at him before leaping back inside the painting.
Amelda rubbed his temples and brushed past his locks of red hair. The stone's powers vary. Such a dangerous power, Nikolai can bring pictures to life, Buckley can increase his own strength, and Taylor and Holly use it through their wires and Seya…Seya!
He scowled, I was a fool! It was her! That damned mind manipulation power! I can't believe she fooled me like that! She'll pay, I swear she will! He clenched his fist and stormed up to his room, completely forgetting about the situation in the other room. Raphael can handle that just fine. He thought angrily.
Urameshi Yusuke looked in the back seat of his three year old Toyota; his childhood best friend was sleeping peacefully, a faint blush on her face. "Keiko…" he said in a scolding tone as if she could hear him.
He stopped at a red light on an empty street, one of the top ten in his pet peeve list. Yusuke ran a hand trough his slicked back black hair and sighed once again. It was unlike Keiko to get sick, she never got sick when they were in high school…well, while she was in school and while he was off in Spirit Worlds or just plain ditching in general.
The light turned green and he prepare to go, but as he did a bright red convertible whizzed by, a drunken couple in it. Yusuke shivered slightly, that was the exact way he died, a drunken couple speeding down the street.
"The irony of this, huh Keiko?" he chuckled and proceeded. "You were sick the whole time, weren't you? But you didn't say anything because of that band you're in. That's so like you, even if you hate something, you grit your teeth and bare it.
"Keiko, do you remember when you begged me to drag out that old guitar and teach you how to play? I remember it."
Yusuke looked up from his dinner as Keiko stomped into the room, looking depressed and sinking into a chair at their small table. "What's the matter?'" he spoke through bits of rice and chicken.
Keiko looked disgusted as food flew her way but ignored it and continued to sulk. He sighed and pushed his food away and propped his elbows on the table, staring at her. "You didn't get the teaching job, did you?" She shook her head. "Big deal, you don't want to teach little punks things that their just going to throw back in your face."
Boing!
He twitched as the folder she had thrown at him fell onto the table. He opened it and pulled out a white piece of stationary.
"…Yukimura-san," he read. "We are…blah blah blah yak yak…requires more yip yip blah blah crap crap talent to our." He stopped reading and looked up at her angrily. "You mean to tell me they won't let you teach at the school because they're looking for teachers with musical experience?"
Keiko nodded sniffling. There was a sound of feet and a few muffled curses. "Forget it Yusuke, I don't need you to pound that principle for me."
"Who said I was going to, I'm sure Hiei is bored…"
Keiko's eyes snapped up, "Urameshi Yusuke, don't you dare! Can't you just teach me how to play that guitar you have?"
"What guitar?"
She rolled her eyes, "The one in your closet."
"There's no guitar in here…"
"Under the shoe rack," she put in sweetly. She heard him curse. "So, Yusuke, about those lessons?"
He came back out laughing, "How about no."
She pouted and picked up his abandoned chop sticks and chucked them at him, he ducked easily but he couldn't avoid the girl throwing herself at him and clinging to his shirt. "Yusuke…" she said, lower lip trembling.
The boy held out for as long as he could before giving in, "Alright! Just don't cry when you meet your match at something."
Keiko squealed and hugged him tightly, "You're the best Yusuke!"
Yusuke smiled and looked back at her one last time before turning back to the road. "You're the best, Keiko."
Anzu sighed and leaned against the fence at the top of the school roof. Her suspension had ended two days ago and she was now back at school. Surprisingly at practice the day before, the coach actually ran with them for a lap!
She sighed gain before frowning, Yuugi was supposed to meet her hear ten minutes ago. He never ever missed a meeting with them.
"Anzu!" she turned around, Honda and Jou were running towards her on the roof. "Hey guys!"
They stopped in front of her and panted, "Have you seen Yuugi?" Jou got out. "We can't find him anywhere, he wasn't in the cafeteria."
Honda nodded and added, "And he was not in the girls' locker room, I checked." Anzu and Jou both glared at him, "We're looking for out friend Honda," Anzu said sourly. "Not some sick pervert."
"But Yuugi can be a bit-" Honda stopped at Jou's glare. "Never mind."
"Kuuu!"
All three whipped around, a floating brown pomp pomp was hovering behind them, staring at then with large green eyes. Jou's mouth dropped, "Is t-that a Kiriboh?"
Anzu took a step back, "Why would a Kiriboh be up here? Do you guys see anyone dueling?" She stepped fore ward, trying to pass through the monster and look below them, but her head bumped into the furry creature.
"Kuu!" it said in protest.
Anzu leapt back, "That- it's real!"
Honda scoffed at her, "You're nuts Anzu, look." He flicked the monster on the nose confidently. "Or maybe it's real!"
"KUUUUUUU!" The Kiriboh puffed up before charging at Honda and knocking him down.
"That's it! Come and get it fur ball!" Honda jumped to his feet and was about to knock the Kiriboh into the sky before Anzu grabbed it protectively. "Leave it alone! It might know where Yuugi is."
She held it away from her and spoke softly, "Can you show us where Yuugi is?"
It squealed and nodded up and down and pulled out of her grasp and began to float away. "Come on!" Jou began to run after it, Anzu followed after him, dragging Honda behind her.
"Dude! Monster are every where!" Jounochi shouted as the three friends ran after the Kiriboh through down town Domino.
Anzu looked around; a duo of Silverfang were terrorizing a mailman who was half way up a tree. A swarm of Basic Insects were leaping over buildings and smashing cars but still the little monster led them all the way to the Domino Museum.
Jou pointed towards a small, spiked hair figure, "Yuugi!"
The boy turned around and they all saw it was not Yuugi, but the Ancient Pharaoh.
"What are you doing here?" He asked confused.
Jou pointed to the Kiriboh, "This fuzz ball led us to you, not to mention the monsters running lose all over the city."
Yami Yuugi stared at them in horror, ""Monsters lose in the city? Are you sure that's not just some dueling system gone bad?" Anzu gave the Kiriboh a little shove and it squeaked before launching itself into Yami Yuugi's arms.
"What's this?" he asked in confusion.
"A Kiriboh." Honda said lamely.
"Mou hitori no boku…" Yuugi appeared next to him in a transparent spirit form. The darker one looked towards him.
"Aibou? What does this mean?" He asked silently to the smaller one.
"Maybe it means you're supposed to try and retrieve your memory, maybe it will put a stop to all this!"
"But…Isis said I would need all seven Senen Items, we only have the puzzle."
"She also said the God Cards, maybe they'll be enough!" Yuugi countered.
"I hope you're right..."
Yami Yuugi turned around and let the monster go and began to proceed into the halls of the museum until he reached the ancient stone tablet that was his first clue to his past.
Reaching into his pocket, Yami Yuugi removed his deck and selected the three Egyptian God Cards, Ra, Osiris and Obelisk. Please God Card, lend me your strength.
Shakily, the Pharaoh held up the three cards and waited.
Jou leaned closer to Anzu, "What is he doing?" Anzu shrugged, "Looks like he's trying to use the God cards."
"Yes," Anzu looked out of the corner of her eye. It was Dagger.
"What do you mean?" Jou turned to her.
"You say something Anzu?" She shook her head and he returned to watching the Pharaoh.
"Speak to me silently, I'll still hear you." Dagger said while watching Yami Yuugi.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
Dagger didn't answer but pointed to her necklace that was hidden under her school uniform. "Prepare yourself, Anzu. This will be the start of your quest. The Nameless Pharaoh will fail in this attempt to retrieve his memories. I can tell you that right now."
"What do you mean he'll fail? He never loses!"
Dagger scoffed and ran a hand through his locks of hair that we're turning slightly blue. "This is not his business, it is ours. Remember what I said, the Orichalcos has nothing to do with him. My brother is about to drag the Pharaoh into this in a matter of moments. It is too late."
She hid a gasp of surprise and nearly forgot to speak silently, but Jou and Honda were too interested in watching Yami Yuugi to notice. "Dagger! Your hair, why is it changing?"
He wearily looked at himself, gazing through his transparent hand. "I'm losing my powers. I'm not the true Priest of the Circle of Orion. What little power I had is being transferred to you, to that necklace. You'll need that and more to defeat my brother. The blond hair you saw was all apart of my disguise. I guess I tried to keep it because…I didn't want to look like my brother, to look like the man that cast down his family and killed my ward."
Anzu looked at him; he looked like a man that had nothing to live for. Smiling she grasped his hand in her own, amazed that it didn't pass through him. He looked surprised but squeezed back and stared fore ward.
Suddenly, Yami Yuugi's body was consumed in a bright light and he screamed. Anzu let go of Dagger's hand to rush fore ward with Jou and Honda to try and pry the cards out of his hand.
Jou grunted, "What's going on?" a strange wind rushed around the Pharaoh and ruffled Jou's golden strand of hair.
"The cards," Yami Yuugi exclaimed, "something is draining their power!"
There was a sudden flash and the light and wind disappeared. The four collapsed on the ground panting.
"W-wh-at was that?" Jou asked holding his chest.
"Trouble," Anzu answered, getting up and sprinting towards the doors.
Honda and Jou got to their feet, holding up the now sleeping Yuugi, "Where are you going?" Jou shouted.
"To see if the monsters are gone!" Anzu shouted backwards. She reached the doors and pushed them open with great force and looked around.
The sun was shinning down on the city but no people were in sight. Cars were over turned and there were several talon marks in the street and side walk.
Anzu stepped out silently, Dagger walking beside her.
"Will everything look like this once you're brother is done?" she asked aloud.
He nodded, "Worse, the entire Earth will be plunged into darkness and his soldiers will wipe out anything."
"Total Death." A voice spoke in a daze behind her. Anzu whipped around. Dinosaur Ryusaki was standing behind her, a dazed look in his eyes. "The end is coming." He said in the same dead tone.
"Dagger, what happened to him?" Anzu asked shakily, that was not Ryusaki by any means.
Dagger walked around the short teen, a frown on his face. "His soul is gone, the Orichalcos has it."
"The end has come." Haga stumbled blindly to her side, his glasses fogged over. "The Great Serpent will devour all."
Anzu shivered, "Do they know what they're saying?"
Dagger shook his head, "Someone is using them as a puppet. It has to be my brother."
ROAR!
Anzu clamped her hands over her ears and looked up blindly. Ryusaki had activated his duel disk and his Two Headed King Rex was in front of him. Anzu coughed and covered her nose that was no hologram, holograms didn't smell.
"How about a duel, Mazaki?" he asked in a distorted voice. There was a sudden weight on her arm, her dueling disk. Anzu frowned and placed her deck in roughly, "I don't know who you are, but I want you to release Ryusaki, now!"
Ryusaki laughed, "I think not little girl."
"Yes, it's a shame that such a pretty girl has such a mouth on her." Haga said oily, fixing his deck in his system as well.
Anzu frowned, "Dagger, I don't think I can take them both on at once."
"You don't have to."
"Mazaki, you're always getting into trouble, aren't you." A cool voice spoke from her side.
"Kaiba? How did you find me?"
He smirked and activated his own duel disk. "Your head set has a tracking device, I figured you and the Dorks have a clear idea on what's going on." She frowned and fixed him with a glare.
"My friends are not dorks, Kaiba." He smirked and drew a card. "Hurry up and start Mazaki, even you could beat one of them."
Anzu frowned but drew her hand. "I summon Spirit Ox in attack mode!"
The little monster appeared in front of her, groaning slightly.
She heard Kaiba humph next to her and Ryusaki's laughter. "I'm not done yet!" she screamed and threw a card down. "Spirit Ox has a special ability, when he is summoned to the field I can use Spring of Youth to boost his attack 2000 points more!"
Spirit Ox gave a loud war cry as the magic card's effect changed him into a powerful warrior once more.
"I'll end my turn."
Haga scowled and placed a card face down and ended his turn. Kaiba smirked.
"You're all amateurs, not even worth my time." He drew and looked at the card before playing it. "I summon X-Head Cannon in attack mode and place one card face down and end my turn."
King Rex: 1400/1200
Spirit Ox: 2400/500
X-Head Cannon: 1800/1500
Killer Bee: 1200/1000
Ryusaki drew and smirked, "I summon Hellkite Saurus in defense mode. I'll also place a card face down. And end my turn."
Anzu frowned, Something is up, and he knows I can wipe his monster out right here and now. So why is he grinning like that? Should I attack? Or play it safe?
"Today, I don't have all day little girl." Ryusaki spoke while examining his nails, "I don't know why the Pharaoh puts up with you. You're useless."
Anzu glared at him, "I play Shinning Friendship in attack mode and place one card face down. Next, I'll have my Spirit Ox wipe out that two head freak! Go Spirit Ox, with your Big Axe Smash!"
Her monster silenced the dinosaur with no problem, bringing his life points down to 3000.
Kaiba rolled his eyes and scoffed at her latest monster, "Mazaki, this isn't play time at the nursery; with cards like that in you're deck you'll never amount to anything other than an annoying cheerleader."
Anzu glared at him with hurt blue eyes before Shinning Friendship moved between them and scolded with a wagging finger.
Haga chuckled in a metallic voice, "I'll use Power Boost to give my Killer Bee 1000 more attack points, making it strong than your monster, Kaiba. Now Killer Bee, attack his monster!"
Anzu gasped as the insect advanced on Kaiba's monster but he seemed cool as he activated his magic card, Shrink. Haga's monster lost half it's attack points and was destroyed when it met Kaiba's X Head Cannon.
"That was a foolish mistake that's going to coast you, Bug Boy." Kaiba said icily and summoned his Y Dragon Head and attached it to his other monster, bringing it's attack points up by 400 points. "You're move, Mazaki. Don't screw this up."
Anzu nodded, "First I'll use Silver Bow and Arrow to bring Shinning friendships attack up to 1600. Now I'll have Spirit Ox attack you directly, Haga!"
To by didn't seem to care if he was done to his final 900 points.
"You should have attacked me while you had the chance, Anzu." He drew and sent her a smirk that sent shivers down her spine. "I'll get rid of my Hellkite Saurus to summon Black Tyranno!"
A huge black beast appeared in a burst of dark light. Anzu whimpered slightly, it bested her Spirit Ox by a whole 200 points.
"Now my beast rid the field of her Shinning Friendship!" Anzu covered her eyes as the card that symbolized her belief in her friends was sent to the grave yard. "Your Spirit Ox is next!"
"That's enough Mazaki! Pull yourself together and fight like a true duelist!" Kaiba shouted to her. Anzu shook her head, sending her brown locks flying.
"I can't! He's going to win…"
"He's going to really beat you if you don't get up and fight! Now stand!" He urged impatiently. She heard him shout an attack and Haga's body fall to the ground in defeat, "You can beat this clown, Mazaki. You have something in your deck that can help. You dorks are always ranting about the heart of the cards, so how about you trust in it and draw!"
He's right. I can't let him beat me, I won't!
Anzu wiped her tears away and drew. "I'll place one card face down and summon SkelAngel in attack mode!"
Ryusaki laughed mockingly. "You really are stupid. Black Tyranno, attack that pathetic angel!"
Anzu smiled when her light monster was destroyed. "I hate to break it to you, but you just made the worst mistake possible. Activate Michizure! This trap card lets me destroy one monster the field, and I choose your Dark Tyranno!"
He swallowed hard as she continued. "And since Haga has been defeated, that makes it Kaiba's turn. And I bet you can guess what that means-" Seto finished for her.
"X Head Cannon, finish him off!" As soon as the attack was done, Ryusaki dropped to the ground, still and not moving.
Her duel disk shut off abruptly and Anzu sighed in relief. "Kaiba, thank you."
Kaiba brushed off invisible specks of dirt off his coat. "Don't mention it, ever." He turned on his heel and prepared to leave, "I owed you, from Buffy the Man Slayer." Anzu laughed at his small joke as he sauntered away from her.
Dagger was not impressed, So Dartz. You have begun.
Yuugi rubbed his head as Kaiba finished his TV announcement stating that Kaiba Crop had nothing to do with the Ramped Duel monsters earlier this afternoon.
"Guys, some weird stuff is going on." Honda said, motioning to the still bodies of Haga and Ryusaki. Jou smacked him on the head roughly.
"What was you're first clue?" he asked sarcastically. Honda stood up, "You want to start something?"
"Guys, now isn't the time for this…" Anzu said tiredly.
Crash!
Yuugi and the group listened carefully, a moan. "Grandpa!"
They rushed down the stairs and into the shop and found Yuugi's grandfather on his back, surrounded by broken glass. Yuugi was at his side in an instant and cradled his head, "Gramps, what happened?"
"Y-yuugi…they stole the god cards…" the old man got out before he fainted from shock.
Bright headlights of motor cycles spot lighted the group and one of the riders spoke. "If you want to God Cards back, you will be at the Junk Yard in one hour." He said quietly.
Jou took a step forward; hey you can't just steal those cards buddy! They aren-!" The smallest biker had punched the boy squarely in the jaw when Jou had come close enough.
"Jou!" Anzu leapt fore ward to catch the boy as the bikers glared down at them. "The Junk Yard in one hour, Pharaoh." With that said, all three turned and rode off and were out of sight.
