LefthandedFreak: Hahahahaha I am back again!

Seto: Yes, now last chapter's questions will be answered!

LefthandedFreak: Hey, I answered that question.

Joey: When?

LefthandedFreak: Last time. And I still stand by what I said. You can't have a cookie. (Pulls cookie out of Joey's reach) Mwhahahaha.

Seto: O.o…Actually, we were wondering who killed…

LefthandedFreak: Why are you talking? Did I say you could? (Seto shakes his head) Good. Now, to my reviewers!

DragonLady222

Well, you should have guessed. I would love to know who you think it is. Anyways, I hope you like this chapter! (throws you plushie of Bakura) Wheee!

And that's all who reviewed so far.

Onto the Story

Fate finished shoving the last bit of her stuff into her bag, which immediately sipped itself up and sat upright, studying the brown haired girl.

"You sure you have everything?" Jerald, back to his old self, that is, he's a calculator again, flew through the air.

"Yeah, I do."

"You grabbed the book on Chocolate?"

"Yes"

"Did you get the Tinsel book?" Fate glanced at Jerald who quickly flew into the kitchen, muttering something about teacups.

Fate sighed before sitting on the edge of her bed, her bag snuggling into her arms. She stroked the bag absentmindedly, " I guess it's time to leave again." She peered out her window. "I hate these visits to earth"

The bag seemed to snap at her fingers and she sighed. "You don't have to remind me." Jerald flew back into the room.

"Alright, Everything's packed and ready to go. You know what you're going to do?" Jerald seemed to want to double-check everything.

"Yes, I do." Glancing at the clock she nodded. "Ten minutes till seven…better head over" Fate stood up, grabbed her bag and Jerald before disappearing.

Kaiba tapped his foot a bit impatiently. Well, Fate wasn't late yet, she still had two minutes and a few seconds, but he hated when people made it at the last minute.

"Hey, Kaiba!" Speak of the Devil. Kaiba nodded as Fate ran up to him.

"I suspect you did as I asked?"

"Yes, I did…what are you wearing?" Kaiba just now noticed her appearance. She looked like a barmaid from the old centuries. A short skirt that fluffed out with an apron tied around her waist. The top part consisted of a button design on the chest and her sleeves slipped down her arms a bit. Fate just smiled as she fixed her hairpiece, which the string ends feel into her hair.

"Oh, it's just something I picked up a LONG time ago.. not important right now. I might tell you later though." Kaiba shrugged and pulled out a key, handing it to her.

"You'll need this to lock and unlock the doors. It's the master key so it works on any room in the house." Fate's smiled brightened.

"Oh, goody, but I think I won't need to go anywhere else in the house. I'll see you again around five?" Kaiba nodded. "Good, well tata, have fun at work." Ha, like that would happen.

Kaiba composed himself before he headed out and into his limo. Fate waited until he had left all the way before letting her bag and Jerald appear.

"Come on you two. We have work to do!"

Ring! Ring! Ring!

Yugi rolled over groggily in his bed, covering his head with the white fluff of his pillow.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

Rolling back over angrily, he picked up the annoying ringing object and was about to throw it when he realized it was the phone and not his alarm malfunctioning. He lazily picked up the receiver.

"Hello, Motou residence, may I assist you?" He rubbed his tired eyes awake as a voice laughed from the phone.

"You sound like your some sort of sales man!" Yugi smiled as he realized who was talking.

"Hello Fate, how are you?"

"Oh I'm alright, how about Yami and you. You two haven't done anything I should be worried about, eh?" Yugi blushed at her accusation.

"No, no we haven't gotten that far…yet", he added as her giggle made it's way to his ear. "May I ask why you're calling so early?"

"Early? I didn't think seven am was early. Oh well, I guess I was wrong to think otherwise. Anyways, I was wondering if Yami and You wouldn't mind coming over to Kaiba's this evening. I need to have a talk with all of you." Yugi suddenly felt nervous.

"Will…will Joey be there?"

"Hmm? Oh, maybe, you'll just have to find out…Oh, and could you send Yami over at three? I'm gonna need his help. The party starts at four!" Yugi sighed nervously.

"Um, alright, we'll be there." He said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Good. GO get em' Tiger!" What was that about? Yugi shook his head before placing the phone back on the hook and crawling out of bed. Better go and tell Yami. Making his way across the hall from his room, he tapped loudly on Yami's door. After he received his own body, Grandpa and Yugi turned the old office into a new bedroom just for him.

After waiting for a while, and not receiving an answer, Yugi sighed before pushing the door gently open and tip toeing his way to the bed. Yami was lying on his stomach, his hair ruffled from the tossing and turning of the night. Yugi liked Yami like that. He always looked so peaceful.

"Looking at something interesting?" Yugi nearly jumped as Yami pulled himself onto his hands and knees, his glazed eyes peering at the other.

"Oh, um, I just came in to tell you, um, Fate's invited you to a get together at Kaiba's house." Yami raised a brow and looked at Yugi. "Kaiba's? Why?" Ok, he was getting a bit nervous.

Yugi shrugged. "I really don't know but she said she needed you to be there at three, if you could. She needs help with something." Yami studied Yugi for a moment.

"Are you coming too?" Yugi nodded and Yami sighed. Oh, what was Fate up to? Yami pulled himself into a sitting position, which caused Yugi to blush when he realized Yami didn't have a shirt on. Turning to leave, Yugi stopped, someone grabbing his arm and pulling him back. He landed with a thump on the bed and soon found Yami leaning over him.

"What's the rush? You seem to like being in my company, ne?" Yugi blushed as Yami swept him into a kiss. Maybe waking up early wasn't so bad after all.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

"Damn you Mr. Phone!"

Joey slipped and slid across his kitchen floor, trying to answer the phone that had just decided to ring after he spilt that bottle of oil all over the kitchen floor. He had decided to get up earlier than normal and make himself some nice breakfast food. Oh, it was food, but it wasn't being too nice. After almost performing a split, which he soon thanked every god he could think of for not letting that happen, he answered the annoying contraption.

"Hello?" He slid around, the cord wrapping around his ankles.

"Hello Joey, Fate here!" Joey spun around again as he tried to untangle the cord.

"Oh hi Fate, how are…ah…you"

"Probably better than you sound at the moment. Hey listen; I'm having a get together at Kaiba's today! I've invited Yugi and Yami already and was hopping you could come." Joey nearly fell at that. Kaiba's? Yami and Yugi? Oh crap.

"Um, I don't know" Joey was thinking. Lie, lie, lie. Yes, that's it, but what to lie about.

"Well why not, Kaiba says you don't have anything planned today and your certainly not gonna meet Yami without me. I'm the look out." Oh she was good. Joey sighed, a bit defeated.

"Alright, when should I be there?" He yanked at the phone cord, which had now managed to wrap around his neck.

"Two o' clock please!" Joey nodded.

"Alright, I'll be there." he slipped again and caught himself on the doorframe.

"You might want to clean up your mess, dear. See ya". The phone clicked off. Joey looked at the receiver. How did she know? Oh, wonder about that later; try to pry legs together now!

Joey arrived at Kaiba's house at the given time, timidly making his way up the steps. Oh, this wasn't the best day to be having this get together. Of course, as Joey had found out, there's no arguing with Fate. Stepping to the door, he knocked as lightly as possible and nearly fell over when the door was immediately jerked open.

Joey's mouth fell when Fate stepped out. A bars maid? Why was she dressed like that? Fate just smiled at Joey's questioning gaze.

"Ah, Kaiba was taken with my outfit too. I think he liked it. "She giggled lightly before swinging the door open for him. "Come in, come in, the others will be arriving shortly." Joey stepped past Fate, still gawking at her outfit as she closed the door. "Want a soda? We might be waiting for awhile" but before Joey could decline, Fate shoved a canned beverage into his hands.

Shrugging, Joey sipped his soda as Fate pulled a beverage for herself out of a very strange looking bag. "Now, would you like to sit down?" Again, Joey didn't have a chance to answer before Fate grabbed his arm and lead him to the parlor. Fate quickly shoved Joey into a chair and was about to sit down herself when the phone rang in the hall.

Funny. Since when did Kaiba have a phone in the hall?

"Oh, I'll go and answer that. Yami might have gotten lost again." Fate slipped out of the room and closed the door behind her. Joey sat in silence. And sat. And sat. And sat some more.

Thirty minutes past and Joey was now starting to wonder where Fate was. Standing, he strode across the room and to the door, grasping the knob and turned it. Hmm? Locked? Why was the door locked? Joey started to pull against the door but it wouldn't budge.

"Oh, Joey, please don't struggle. You'll only be in there for a couple of hours. I accidentally locked the door and now I can't find that key Kaiba gave me earlier". On the other side of the door, Fate weaved the key in and out of her fingers, smiling as she heard Joey moan. "And I'd rather you not break it down. Kaiba would kill us. So, just sit tight and relax. I'll get you out when I can."

One down, three to go.

Kaiba rubbed the back of his neck as he walked up the steps to his house, tired from all the work he had to do today, not to mention all the things he had to fix due to someone else's stupidity. Walking into his house, he suddenly noticed how dark it was.

SLAM!

Kaiba spun around as the door shut behind him. What was going on?

"Ah, good, right on time as always." Kaiba froze. Fate?

"What's wrong with the lights?"

"Oh nothing, I just wanted them off when you came home. It gives it a more eerie effect. Anyways, now that you've arrived, we can all get started."

The lights in the hall flickered on and two doors to the right opened, Yami and Joey stumbling out before another door to the left revealed a much ruffled up Yugi.

"It's about damn time" Joey muttered as he rubbed his shoulder. All he knew was that Fate had finally found the key but couldn't get the door to move so Joey would have to ram it open. Yami and Yugi had apparently heard the same thing due to how they both stumbled out of their rooms too.

A light suddenly flicked on at the top of the stairs, revealing Fate smiling down at the four guys. "Gentlemen, I am so glad you could make it to this little party of mine. In the next few minutes you will learn more about each other than you bargained for."

Fate jumped onto the railing and slid down the stairs, gracefully landing on her feet before spinning around and grabbing hold of the closest person to her. Yugi.

"Hello Yugi. How are you?" she didn't even wait for him to answer. "I'm pretty sure that things are going well with Yami, hmm? But what about, gasp, Joey" Yami looked at Yugi who's eyes were suddenly transfixed with fear on Fate. Of course, theirs weren't the only eyes. Kaiba and Joey were exchanging a look too.

Fate gave a comforting hug to Yugi "But don't worry, I won't let anything terrible happen tonight." She spun away from Yugi and grabbed onto Yami. "Now you shouldn't look too shocked. Even while yours and Yugi relationship blossoms, another one is under foot with, dare I say it, a very cold hearted CEO?" Everyone was just giving each other looks, not too sure what to do.

Fate smiled and glided over to Kaiba, wrapping her arms around his back and peering around his arms and up at him. "Or maybe he's warm hearted since he has enough heart for two?" She ruffled his hair before walking slowly towards Joey. She slipped a hand across his face. "What do you say Joey? You and him are more alike than at first glance."

She walked back to the center of the room and looked at the group. They were all avoiding the others eyes. "Oh, come now, what's wrong?" Silence…. then.

"We all cheated." Yugi was the first to speak. He sounded a bit unsure at first before he spoke again. "We all betrayed the others trust." Fate waved a hand.

"Is that what I raised you four to believe? Betrayed? As I've told all four of you, at one time or another, don't look at it as cheating but more as sharing the love."

Joey shook his head. "But…but how? We all seem to be in love with each other. What can we do?" Fate smiled.

"Well, you just answered that question. You all seem to be in love with each other, so why not be in love with each other? There's no law saying four men can't have a relationship. And if there is, I'd like to see it." Kaiba shook his head.

"But I don't even know if I like Yugi."

"Oh trust me, you do. You all hold a strong desire for the other, even the ones that haven't been revealed yet. That's why I started this whole escapade of secret affairs. Cause I knew that soon, I would be able to let you all see the love you hold for each other." Yugi, Yami, Kaiba, and Joey, for a slight minute, looked at each other. Maybe it could work. But tonight wasn't going to let that happen.

Clap. Clap. Clap.

Someone was walking down the stairs, face hidden by the shadows, clapping lightly with each step he took.

"Very inspiring words Fate. You could win an Oscar." Fate spun around as a young man with red hair stepped into the light. He wore a very old looking garment that seemed to be a toga from Greece. A gold helmet covered part of his short hair, wings sticking from the sides of it as he came into full view.

"Hermes? What are you doing here?" Hermes looked Fate up and down before shaking his head.

"I've got to admit, I'd never thought that you would do such a thing." Fate raised a brow, as did Yugi, Yami, Kaiba, and Joey, at Hermes remark.

"What are you talking about?" Hermes fell in fake shock.

"Oh! What is this! Fate doesn't know! Well I guess there's a first time for everything." Kaiba finally found his voice.

"I don't know who you are but I would gladly appreciate you leaving my house this instant." Hermes snorted at Kaiba before he flew off the stairs and down to the floor level all the way.

"So these are the men you were working with Fate? No wonder you were taking so long." Kaiba just stared at Hermes a bit surprised. He had just flown across the room. He quickly shook it away, though. Yeah right, and pigs could fly.

"Actually, up there", Hermes pointed up, "They do fly. That's why bacon for breakfast is a rare oddity for us." He shook his head like he was a bit displeased because of that.

"Hermes, you know not to use your powers in front of humans" Fate finally pulled Hermes attention back to her. Joey gaped.

"Wait, he's not human? What is…wait, your not human!" Hermes laughed.

"The blonde one gets it" Hermes flew towards Fate, papers flying up into the air as he appeared behind her. "Nope, Fate here, is rather, shall I say, an entity from above"

"An angel?"

Hermes laughed. "Well, nope, not after what she did, but more of Fate"

They all stared confused at him.

"Oh I understand why you're confused when I say that. Here, let me make it simple for you. Aphrodite is an entity. She is the entity of love meaning she spreads love to those who would make good couples". He pointed at the four. "Aries is an entity of War. He helps keep the battles going, making sure that both sides have suburb tactics but he mostly just prefers one side."

Hermes draped his arms around Fate's shoulders, sliding them down her chest. "While Fate here, is an entity of Fate. She decides what will happen to someone. She has to make sure things run smoothly and mostly helps people out. That's why, when people ask something like 'Why did my daughter have to die' people would reply 'It was her Fate'." Hermes smiled. "Cruel thing, really, Fate, it beckons us on the most ungodly times."

A gold cuff suddenly appeared and snapped itself secure around Fate's neck. "Hermes, what's the meaning…of…this…" Fate started pulling at the cuff, trying to get it to stop tightening and allow her some air passage.

"Fate", Yami started to make his way to help but Hermes just looked at him as he was blasted back into Kaiba, knocking them both to the ground.

"Don't interfere. Fate has been arrested on a charge of murder." Yugi looked confused.

"Murder? Who did she murder?" Hermes smiled as he patted Fate's head, ignoring her struggles for air.

"Hades. Lord of the Dead. Found poisoned in his room. Shocking, really. But since Fate disappeared around the time of suspected death, she is a very important suspect in this case." He leaned down closer to her. "Very important." He smiled before looking at the others, Yami and Kaiba pulling themselves up from the floor due to Joey's help.

"And gentlemen, you should be happy. Now that Fate's been arrested you can now receive the control of your emotions that you've should have had all along". Fate glared up Hermes.

Joey raised a brow. "What do you mean?" Hermes smiled wickedly.

"Why, she made you fall in love. Those weren't your feelings at all. They were just planted in your head. Now, if I were you, I'd give that a nice long think and see what I turned up with. Ta ta." A bright light blinded them for a second before it was gone along with Fate and Hermes.

Kaiba looked at Joey, who looked at Yugi at Yami, who looked at the floor. They didn't say a word.

LefthandedFreak: Weeheee!

Joey: Wait! Fate killed Hades!

Kaiba: Wow…I'll never piss her off anytime soon.

LefthandedFreak: Maybe she did….maybe she didn't. I can't tell you till next time….or maybe the time after that. Anyways, the story is almost finished. (cries) I can't believe it. I've worked on it for some time. Oh well.
