Own characters: Mokuba's stepfamily. Marine, Asana and Ivera. Then there's the new addition Maura. There's brief appearances by Mokuba's friends. Plus new friends Zariah, Ren and Nydia.
Other characters may also appear.
Note: Maura is here to STAY! I am sorry if you don't like her or don't want her around. But no matter what happens in the future she's here to stay. I understand, she's not from the show and for that you hate her and don't want her around, sorry she's not leaving. So, you must learn to live with it.
Own Villians:
Royden Herman (Royden) Old English Place name "Rye hill" (Herman) Old German "army man"
Ita my book says means Thirst and is rare outside Ireland but my friend Cat says says its Italian.
Malka is Hebrew it means Queen. It sounds strange but, a contestant on Whammy was called Malkah. So at least we know it's a real name!
Brenne this one I found amusing since it's Irish and Gaelic & means "Raven; black-haired" also dim
Riva is Hebrew means "joined" French for "shore"
Wolfgang Old German "wolf quarrel" A very Germanic name
Laria Dice I forget where I got the name Laria, but I think that was a future hurricane name but I don't remember.
Samuel Marek I needed a sidekick name and was thinking hard and a contestant on password plus said his name was Samuel, I thought it was perfect. Marek was the name of a jeopardy player
Disclaimer: All villains are fictional and DO NOT represent any persons living or dead. Any traces of this doing so is purely coincidental. Some of Yami's magic words are fictional others come from the site I'm also using that site for a few random character names. Some own character names, Mokuba's Friends, were given by kind reviewers that wished their name in the story. Only the first names provided were used and do not mean any disrespect towards any one person. The names may have come from you and you can be happy that the name was used but the characters themselves are fictional and do not reflect the reviewers personality in anyway, shape form or fashion! Mokuba's stepfamily not including Noah are fictional and are my own characters. Maura and her sisters were given to me by Jasmine a reviewer that has stuck with this story since the beginning!
Disclaimer: I don't own yugioh. I only own my own characters.

Asana couldn't believe this. Not only was the kid not in trouble they were hugging him and loving on him. She never realized that such a thing was possible. Her mother would never do that. She'd yell and scream. Her mother almost never made promises. She believed her grandmothers sayings. Asana couldn't believe the love they were giving the boy. She had said that Mokuba was in a loving home. But she never imagined that it was a true loving home. She couldn't remember the last time her mother hugged her or said she loved her or showed her any kind of real love. She'd seen her do it with Noah and on occasion Marine but now that she thought of it she couldn't ever remember her mother being that affectionate towards her. She smiled, she never hated Mokuba; truthfully she never understood her mothers reasons. She said it was because their father was killed. But she overheard a conversation the night he left home to look for work; that her mother begged him not to go. She remembered him telling her with the crops bad they needed money. Her mother was yelling they should just get rid of JJ, but her father said it didn't matter. That with or without JJ, he still had a wife and kids that he needed to support. There was no way anyone could have known what was going to happen.
Seto turned and glared at her making her very nervous. "As a favor to Mokuba I will allow you to remain and give you a job and a place to stay. But this is only a trial basis. You will be under constant supervision and are not allowed near Mokuba without me, Yami, Ryo or Varon near him. Is that clear?"
Asana nodded. Unable to believe he was allowing her to stay.
"Follow me." Seto said turning to walk towards the door.
Asana followed without question.

"Yami?"
"What is it kiddo?"
"S-Seto won't hurt her will he?"
Yami smiled, "No, sweetheart. Seto is all bark and no bite when it comes down to it."
"H-he w-wont give her a h-h-hor…" Mokuba growled in frustration. Then finally said, "A r-really bad j-job will he?"
Yami's heart went out to the poor kid to want to say one thing but not being able to say it. "I promise not to let him."
Mokuba smiled and snuggled closer to him. "T-Thank you big brother."
"Anytime kid, any time." Yami said holding the boy close.

At the same time, Seto took Asana to get her settled in.
"Heather."
"Yes my king."
"This is Asana, correct?" Seto asked.
"Yes." Asana felt short simple answers were for the best. She was also slightly surprised he remembered her name.
"Take her and find her a room and then show her around. Report back to me later on what room she's assigned to."
"Yes, my king." Heather said bowing. 'That's strange the king rarely hires new maids personally. He has a time or two but why does he want to know where she's assigned. What difference does that make?'
"I'll assign a guard to watch you. He will be with you 24/7 for a while."
"May I ask how long is a while?" Asana asked quietly.
"That depends on how close you and your brother were."
Asana dropped her head further. 'So, in other words I'll have this guard up under me for life.'
"W-We were very close.
"I see, I'll have to make certain the guard is aware of this. You may leave." Seto said turning and leaving.

"Wow what did you do to make the king so angry with you?" Heather asked.
"Personally, nothing. But my brother and little Mokuba know each other and the king doesn't like how."
"How do they know each other?"
Asana not wanting everyone to know that she was related to 'the Noah' that she was sure by now the whole castle knew. She simply said, "It's not important."
"It must be if the king wants to assign a guard to watch you."
"Yeah, well I'd rather not talk about it."
Heather didn't say anything more and showed her to a room. She'd have it to herself and though it wasn't as fancy or big as the room Mokuba had her hid out in, it was still bigger than her room. Since she knew about when her mother and Noah would be out of the house she knew it wouldn't be hard to sneak back home and get a few more things to make the room more hers.

Seto walked back over to Yami and Mokuba and smiled.
"Well I can see you wont be going anywhere for a while."
Yami frowned and looked puzzled. "What are talking about Seto?"
"I told you to hold him, not put him to sleep."
Yami glared at him. "Very funny. All I was doing was holding him. He snuggled up and I guess when he stopped moving I should have known he was asleep. He was actually concerned about you."
"Why would he be concerned about me?"
"Actually it was more he was concerned what you were going to do to her."
"What's he concerned about?"
"He thinks your going to beat her or give her a horrible job."
"Well now that you mention jobs I was thinking toilet duty would be perfect."
"Sorry, you can't."
"What you mean, I can't? Why can't I?"
"Because I promised Mokuba, you wouldn't give her a horrible job. Besides, I happen to agree with Mokuba on the fact that you shouldn't punish her for her brother's actions. If that were the case then I'd have been beaten quite often growing up."
Seto glared at him. "I wasn't that bad!"
"I'm not touching that one."
"Come on big brother I am not that bad!"
"I told you I wont debate the issue with you. Besides if you keep yelling like that you'll wake up Mokuba."
"Fine, since you can't move I'll send out word and we'll do grievances today."
"Seto, you know those things can get loud."
"That's why they will be private sessions, only those directly involved will be allowed in; anyone caught screaming or the first to wake Mokuba gets to spend the night in jail and never get their grievances heard."
"That's kind of harsh isn't it Seto?"
"You got a better idea? We've been putting this off for weeks, due to the fact that we hate it. It's this or we sit here bored or I'll leave you to sleep."
"You're not leaving me here alone."
"You could always wake him."
"I've never known you too."
"Point taken. What do we do then?"
"Go ahead with your order on the grievances. If the guards can't spot the ones that will be the biggest trouble makers or ones that have been in the past by now they never will."
Seto nodded and proceeded to go talk to the guards about getting it started.

As this was happening a mysterious figure who happened to be the master of shadows was working his way towards the castle.
