Sophie and Lizzy were the first to walk up the stairs; the rest followed.
"So where do you wanna go first?" Asked Sophie thinking of the possibilities.
"Wanna go check Kaiba's room?" Asked Lizzy not needing to know the answer.
"I like your thinking!" Said a smiling Sophie as they headed of t Kaiba's room on the right from the stairs.
Akifa looking over to the two wimps he had been handed down; he shuddered at the thought of having to walk around with them.
"So where are we going to look oh 'almighty leader'? Asked Rex sarcastically.
"Don't be rude… To you I am an almighty leader and you'll do well to remember that right?" He asked growling at him.
"Uh huh!" Nodded Rex who was rather scared now.
"So seriously where we goin?" Asked Weevil.
"I quite fancy going into the armoury." Smirked Akifa, "Never know what you might find in there!"
The other two tried to swallow their fright.
""So aibou wanna check the third floor?" Asked Yami looking down slightly as he spoke.
"Er ok…"
"Yo Ryou wanna check there too…. Maybe we can scare that stupid pharaoh." Whispered Bakura.
"Hey no rule breaking… We cant scare them… Er…. Ok what the hell."
Bakura looked to Ryou surprised.
"So big brother where are we going to look?" Asked Mokuba.
Kaiba was too busy looking to where Sophie was going to hear what his brother said the first time.
"HEY!" Shouted Mokuba to Kaiba again.
"Oh er…. Sorry dude what you say?" Asked Kaiba coming out of his glare.
"I said where do you want to look Seto?" Asked Mokuba again.
"Er how about the library?"
"So Joey where are we going?" Asked Serenity smiling at her brother.
"Don't smile at me." He said evilly.
She stopped smiling and looked ahead. She followed him to the room on the right of the armoury; the gym.
Second from last to ascend the stairs was Emily and Yami Malik who decided to take to the second floor bathroom and guarding the stairs.
Lastly was Marik and Tea,
"So where we going to search then searching partner?" Asked Tea nicely.
Once arriving upstairs Yugi and Yami began to search down the left of the corridor to where Mokuba's room was.
After unsuccessfully finding anything in the empty gym Tea and Marik walked up the third floor stairs,
"So who do you think the killer is?" Asked Tea randomly and suddenly.
"Well its not Bakura if you're still thinking that!" Said Marik not looking at her.
He took the only left and then the first right.
"Couldn't have been could it?" She asked looking up at him.
He stopped halfway down the corridor just before the large window on his left that looked over to the opposite hallway. He turned to his right and smiled at Tea in a possessed way,
"And what if I told you just who did kill Malik and Mai?"
Tea's eyes swelled slightly,
"You know?"
"Of course… It was… Me!" He said still smiling evilly.
Tea tried not to scream as she was told the horrific news.
Marik went to grab her but she darted down the corridor the had begun to walk down.
"Tea!!!" He called out running after her laughing.
"Hey Yami did you hear something?" Asked Yugi looking up from where he had been searching.
Yami pricked his ears,
"Its probably Ryou and Bakura looking in the guest room, don't worry aibou!"
"I don't know…" Yugi got up and pulled open the door. He looked to his right; down the corridor that lead to the stairs. He saw Sophie and Lizzy reach the top while talking among themselves. Relieved he closed the door and carried on looking.
Sophie heard someone dart down the corridor and looked to Lizzy,
"Hey did you hear that?"
"What was it?" Lizzy asked looking around but seeing no one.
"It sounded like someone running…" Said Sophie moving to look down the right hand corridor. She saw a flutter of cape as the person rounded the corridor.
The two looked at each other,
"You go this way and ill go that way. We'll meet in the middle on the other side." Said Sophie running down the corridor and leaving Lizzy to run down the one wher3e they had seen the person.
Marik hadn't seen what way Tea had gone and was now looking on the other side of the window; with her no where to be seen.
Tea peeped out of the door behind which she hid. She had ran into the room opposite the bathroom and adjacent to where Marik now looked. He was looking the other way… Now was her chance to slip out and run for it.
Practically silent she crept out of the room she hid in a crept back down the corridor she ran down.
Marik spun round; thinking he heard someone move.
Tea darted down the corridor and pulled open the door to the other end of the it; the bathroom.
Marik walked down the corridor and rounded the corner to which lead to the bathroom.
Tea closed the door and began to back her way through the bathroom; constantly keeping her eyes on the door. Her breathing was heavy as she began to panic; she was in a house with a madman. Tea's eyes looked to her sides slightly as she observed her surroundings. There was a toilet and sink; and just behind her a shower with the curtain drawn.
She looked back to the door; there was no lock, no way of keeping him out.
Just then she thought she heard a noise.
She backed up further until her back was pressed against the cold glass shower side. There was no escape for her now; he was going to kill her.
She didn't know that the killer was already with her…
Another noise; this time from the shower, she turned but before she could say anything the swift deadly action happened.
The sword plunged through the glass with such speed it barely made a noise as it crashed into her back and through her stomach.
She tried to scream but the pain was too unbearable.
The shower door opened and out stepped the cloaked killer; she had been wrong, Marik had played and trick and she had fell for it and it had cost her her life.
The figure stepped in front of her as she clutched her stomach that poured fresh blood from her life consuming wound. This was it; her eyes began to darken as though someone had brought a shadow upon her.
Just as she brought in her last breathe the killer smiled and left undiscovered.
