The four friends approached the large gates of the Kaiba residence. All hunching over, trying to avoid the rain, but it was no use. Yugi looked down and noticed that there was a huge gap in the bars of the gate, as if someone had bent them. Fortunately, the gap was large enough for each of them to get through. "Alright guys, we're going to have to be as cautious as possible." He turned around and warned as they were about to walk toward the door. Anzu, Tristan and Joey all nodded.
Anzu looked around and shivered at the site of the deserted place. "I wonder what actually happened..." She said, nervously. Joey looked around as well. There weren't even any of the security guards either. Although, it was just that minute when he stumbled onto something on the ground. "Whoa!" He gasped, thrashing around to keep his balance. Yugi and Tristan looked at him. Joey looked down at the ground to notice a body lying there in the mud. Joey leaped back in terror. "What the?" He squealed. Yugi looked at the person in the mud and turned him over. "What happened to him?" Anzu asked, anxiously leaning over him. Yugi turned him completely over and there was blood running down the man's face, and from his mouth. Anzu screeched in terror and hid behind Tristan.
Yugi thought for a moment. "He's dead." He said. "I'm not really quite sure how, but it's true." He dropped the man, and stood up. Joey and Anzu walked around the corpse and to the door of the mansion. Yugi and Tristan followed. "Let's go." Yugi said, coldly. Tristan nodded. "Right." They walked toward the door, but before they could knock on it, the doors flew open and banged against the wall loudly. They looked around curiously. Tristan glared up the stairs and saw some kind of small figure standing there giggling. "Who is that?" He asked. Yugi shrugged. Tristan took a closer look, but it was no use, the darkness entirely hid the figure's face.
He shook his head in frustration. He gasped and rubbed his head violently. "Man, I hate these games..." Tristan muttered. Yugi walked up the stairs, and the figure continued to giggle. "Who are you?" He asked suspiciously. The figure nodded and said in a child-like voice. "Yugi? You should already know who I am!" He chuckled. Yugi knew at that moment. exactly who the child was. Mokuba. "Mokuba? Is anything wrong here?" He asked worriedly. 'Mokuba' laughed and ran down the hall.Yugi motioned his friends to hurry up the stairs.
They ran up the stairs, and searched around to find Mokuba. "Where are you, Mokuba? And where's your older brother?" Anzu yelled. Yugi ran ahead down the hallway because a suddenly burst of movement sounds shot down the hallway. "Yugi, where are you going?" She asked frustratingly. Yugi swiftly turned the corner to see a mysterious room. In the room was a cage, and in the cage, layed Kaiba, eyes closed. "K-Kaiba?" He asked nervously. He didn't say anything. Anzu, Joey and Tristan bashed into Yugi and he kept staring at Kaiba. He walked over. "Kaiba, what are you doing in there?" He asked. Kaiba opened his eyes and yawned. "First of all, why are you in my house?" He blurted out.
Yugi shook his head. "Joey said he thought there was something wrong here..." He pleaded. Kaiba was twitching irritantly. He hated the fact that Yugi and his friends, Kaiba's greatest opponent and enemy would just barge in his own home. "Fine then," Kaiba began. "I can't really remember why I'm here... the only thing I can remember was getting locked in this cage, can you get me out?" He growled. Yugi looked at the lock on the cage. It looked pretty easy to pick. He stuck a nearby pin into the lock and as he twisted it around, he began telling Kaiba about how strangely Mokuba was acting. Amazingly, Kaiba didn't seem one bit worried.
Suddenly, the cage door swung open and Yugi stepped back. Kaiba, with no trouble stepped out of the cage and smirked. "Yes Yugi, I've noticed Mokuba's been acting like that..." He said, smugly. Yugi felt a little confused because Kaiba sounded a little too smug to be himself at that very moment.
"Kaiba, are you feeling okay?" Joey asked, also bewildered. Kaiba nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine, what's it to you?" He said. Joey suddenly started breathing heavily because he was getting a little annoyed with Kaiba, who was always insulting him and treating him as if he was a complete idiot. Yugi looked down the abandoned hallway. "Guys, shouldn't we start looking for Mokuba, as well?" He asked. Kaiba shook his head and slammed the door shut. "No, you guys can stay right here..." He said eerily. Tristan sounded extremely nervous. "Is anyone else a little scared now?" He asked.
