"Speech"

'Mental talking/Thought'

Chapter 4

Joey and Serenity were the last to arrive at the Game Shop.

"Hey Joey, Serenity. I didn't think you would make it" Mokuba greeted.

"Yea, we stopped to get some breakfast. Well, and um…Mokuba have ya seen Kaiba lately?" Joey asked

"Big Bro.?" Mokuba asked. "No not really. He's been working late lately and last night he must have gotten in after I went to bed and left before I woke up. Or he could have spent the night at his office, he sometimes does that when he has to get there early or if he finishes to late and it would be too much of a hassle to get home. Why?"

"Well, we were at Ihop, and I could have sworn your brother was there with Ishizu." Joey replied.

"Joey, you must have seen someone else. Set hates Ishizu. They never get along." Aries replied.

"How do you know?" Tea asked.

"He told me." Aries lied.

"Well, did they say each other's name?" Amane asked.

"Well they said 'Seth' and 'Aishizu' but they could have lied." Joey proposed.

"Why would they lie? Did they know you were there?" Aries asked

"No. I don't think so"

"So then it couldn't have been them." Amane deduced.

"I guess." Joey replied unsure.

"Alright, now what are we going to do?" Yugi asked.

"THE MALL!" Aries and Tea squealed.

"That could be fun," Amane tried to said cheerfully as she saw the utter look of despair on their face. 'Besides, I do need some more cloths, and I could just call Ryou and make my move…hehehehe'

"Alright, let's go then." Yugi pouted. Everyone nodded, and so they were off to the Domino City Mall.

Once there they went to the Arcade next to the Mall. Inside they had somehow lost Amane, whom had sneaked out to switch with Ryou and change.

10 minutes later, Ryou came and gave her, her equipment. A bit of makeup here, a few curls there, a flat iron here; and a can of black hair dye, they were ready to fool everyone.

Amane, now with black hair wore a short blue mini skirt, with a blue tube top with a jean jacket. Instead of the baggy shirt and pants she originally wore, she gave them to Ryou, and he went off to meet back up with Aries, Mokuba, Yugi and the gang.

"Hey Ryou, Where did you disappear to?" Yugi asked.

"I had to go to the bathroom, then I got a little lost on my way back." Ryou lied.

"Oh, so what should we do next? Tristan and Joey want to eat, the girls want to go shopping, while Mokuba, Malik and I don't care." Yugi replied.

"I don't mind whatever we do." Ryou replied.

An hour later they left the Arcade.

"Food, I want Food" Joey complained.

"I'm a little hungry also. Let's get some Lunch." Malik asked.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Joey quickly said.

"That does seem like a good idea." Serenity replied.

As they got to the food court they saw a lone girl there eating. One look at her and Malik went red, mumbling something.

"what did you say?" Ryou asked as he tried to keep a smirk hidden.

"I said" Malik took a deep breath "That that's Amane, from the club, I forgot to call her."

"Oh, and whom may Amane be?" Ryou asked Pretending not to know, while trying not to laugh.

"She is the girl he met at the club." Tea replied. Ryou blinked.

"I didn't know you all knew her." Ryou muttered.

"What do you mean?" Mokuba asked.

"Nothing!" Ryou said putting on his most innocent smile on his face before shouting "HEY AMANE!"

Amane rose her head as she heard her brother Shout. She immediately noticed all of them.

"Hello…Malik?" Amane greeted, her tone lightening as she said his name.

"Hi Amane," Malik blushed "I didn't expect to see you here."

"Yeah, me neither." Amane said before she sent Ryou a thought. 'NOT a single WORD, Ryou, Not a word.' Ryou just smiled.

"Amane, why don't you us" Ryou asked ignoring Malik's glare.

"Well, if it's alright with you all. I don't want to impose." Amane replied.

"Don't worry, you won't." Aries smiled.

"Alright. Let me pick up." Amane smiled as she picked up her purse. They all went in get a bigger table. Tristan and Joey ran to get everyone's food. The others just waited.

"So Amane, Do you have any siblings?" Yugi asked.

"Yeah, I had a twin, but he died about 11 years ago. A car accident." Amane said taking a sad tone.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked." Yugi said.

"Don't worry. It happened a long time ago. I'm not sad about, it, I just sometimes miss him. But I got to meet Ryou out of it. So it was like a lost a brother and gained another." Amane smiled.

"You two know each other?" Yugi asked.

"yes. We meet at the hospital. It was a bittersweet meeting. My family's car had crashed into her Family's car. Our had spun out of control after the driver side of our car was hit by a drunk driver and caused us to hit their car." Ryou replied. " She lost her brother. I lost my mother to the drunk driver, she had been the one driving. And my little sister to Amane's car."

"Oh my. I didn't know." Yugi said. "If I had I wouldn't have brought up that question."

"You know her, and you never introduced her to us?" Tea asked

"she just moved down here recently." Ryou replied.

"Yea, And I told Ryou not to tell anyone I was here." Amane said as she hugged Ryou. "Well, except our very close friends." She added giggling.

Malik was watching this exchange and felt a little jealous. He wanted her to like him, not his best friend's light. Though he remember her saying they were like siblings. But he was too jealous to really care. He was so wound up in watching Amane, he was surprised to seed Ryou through the conversation to him.

"Yeah, Malik has an older brother and sister."

"Really. That must be nice. What are their names?"

"Rashid and Ishizu." Malik replied. "Rashid is in Egypt, while Ishizhu is in Japan with me."

"Really, I've always wanted to go to Egypt." Amane said. "It has always fascinated me"

"Really?" Malik asked.

"Yeah. Especially the Millennium Items. I've always wanted to find out more about them." Amane answered as she played with her hair.

'Amane! Stop, don't give him too much information' Ryou shot her a glance.

'Don't worry Brother. I want to see him sweat.'

'Your worse than Aries.'

'Hey!' Aries cried out.

'What? It's true.' Ryou replied.

"Millennium items?" Malik asked, squeaking slightly. Everyone was silent, as Amane nodded. She was definitely enjoying herself.

"Yeah, the ring, the necklace, the scale, the eye, the key, the puzzle, my favorite is the rod, and…"

'THEY DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE DRAGON!' Aries and Ryou shouted.

"That's it right?" Amane asked as she paled slightly. 'Sorry, I forgot that one little detail.'

"I don't know, I've never heard of them before" Malik lied.

"Oh, well. It doesn't matter. One day, I'll have at least one of the millennium items. Some day." Amane sighed ending the conversation. Much to the relief of Aries and Ryou.

They spent most of the day at the mall. Aries, Amane, Serenity, and Tea did the shopping as they dragged the guys around with them. Around three, they had met up with Mai, and much to the guy's dismay, the shopping nearly doubled.

At six they started to head back to the turtle Game stop. Yugi ordered pizza, which everyone ate some of. And they settled in for a movie. By the time it finished it was nearly 9:00.

"It's late." Yugi observed. "Mokuba, did Kaiba say he would be picking you up?"

"Yeah, he said he would be here at 8:00." Mokuba said, worried that his brother was late.

"Have you tried his cell-phone?" Tea asked.

"Yeah, but he doesn't answer." Mokuba replied.

Amane, Aries and Ryou get a flash. Seto and Ishizu fighting 10 werewolves. Seto dodges one of their claws before clashing it with another pair, when all of a sudden his cell phone rings. All the fighting stops to allow them to continue to fight. The three of them quickly shakes their head. When Ryou looked at his watch he noticed he would be late for his shift he didn't hurry.

"Umm, Yugi, I really must be going. It was a pleasure spending the day with all of you. Good bye" With that Ryou left. He went home, changed and went out into the darkness, to defend the city from the evil Werewolves.

Back to the others.

"Hey, Mokuba. How about we walk you home?" Amane suggested.

"Yea, so this way we can keep all those weirdoes away" Joey shouted. Everyone looked at him.

"Joey, I don't think you can get any weirder then us." Tea replied.

'You have no idea' Aries and Amane said at the same time.

And so the little group went off towards the Kaiba mansion. About half way there both Aries and Amane stiffened, they could smell them. Suddenly a group of large men appeared.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" One asked

"I believe we have a few bats on our hands." Another smirked.

"You will let us pass you mongrels." Aries insulted as her eye started to faintly glow.

"It will do thy well to keep thy tongue well tamed Tramp." A third said.

"Tramp. Why I outta. You, me, right now." Aries shouted.

"Aries. I think you should calm down" Malik said. He then turned to the werewolves. " We're sorry to have bothered you." He then took a step forwards.

"You smell like a bat. We don't like your kind around here." The first one said.

"Wait what do you mean our kind?" Mokuba asked

"You reek of bats. I say we just kill you know and save our kind the trouble of it later." The second one said.

"Watch your tongue you mongrels." Amane stated calmly. "And let us pass."

"And why would we do that Wretch" The first one laughed.

"we just thought you would like to live an extra hour or so." Aries smirked. As she walked towards them. The third one took a step back.

"Good sirs, thy think we have the bats thy lord want, but not of thy normal bats." The third one said. Everyone looked towards him. Suddenly a cloud of smoke filled the area, and everyone but Aries and Amane started to cough. Shots were fired, and when the smoke cleared. The gangs in front of them was dead, and slowly were withering into dust.

Aries and Amane put on shocked faces.

"Now that was weird. Even for us." Tristan stated.

"How did they die?" Malik asked.

"Looks like they dissolved to death." Ishizu stated. Her voice caused everyone to jump in fright, even Amane and Aries.

"Ishizu! What are you doing here?" Malik asked with a hand on his chest.

"Seto drove me to pick up Malik." Everyone looked behind her and there was Seto Kaiba leaning against a black Convertible. They looked from him to Ishizu then back to him.

"I came to pick up Mokuba. I was late because I got held up in a meeting." Seto replied coldly.

"Don't you go blaming this all on me." Ishizu argued.

"I am the one taking you home, am I not."

"I'm going into that one with you Seto Kaiba."

"STOP!" both Seto and Ishizu stopped there arguing and looked at Tea. "Now in a civilized tone tell us why you two are together?"

"We were at a meeting together, and Seto/I offered me/Ishizu a ride home after we picked up our siblings" Ishizu and Seto replied at the same time.

"Okay?" Tristan replied with a sweatdrop.

"Thank you for attemping to take my brother home." Seto said as he turned. "Malik, Aries, Mokuba, get in the car. I'll take you home."

"Thanks Set" Aries said

"Yeah, thanks" Malik replied quietly.

"I'll see you Monday." Aries waved as she climbed in after Mokuba.

"Amane, it was nice seeing you again." Malik said.

"It was nice seeing you again too." Amane replied.

"Good bye."

"Until later" Amane said as he climbed into the car. Everyone said his or her goodbye and Seto started the car and drove away. They sat in silence until Aries spoke up. (This is a made up language, so speak this to anyone else, they will most likely will look at you crazy)

"Arigatoo para dis ayu" (Thank you for the help.)

"Ins Na" (It's nothing) Ishizu replied. "In fu Set mi" (it was Set's idea)

"Amane y I cas no to em" (Amane and I nearly had to tell them) Aries said.

"Re?" (really)

"Hai" (yes)

"The a go te fi o if too on Shut up!" (they are going to find out if you don't shut up) Seto said as he drove. The two girls stopped chatting. Seto dropped off Malik and Ishizu, then he dropped off Aries, before he went home with Mokuba. He stayed there for an hour before heading out on petrol.

Hope you like. Sorry once again that it took so long, I had trouble getting myself to type this. So please R&R.

So until next.

C-ya.
