Chapter Six

It had just been two weeks since Ryou and Bakura were brought to the medical center. Bakura was released after the first night but Ryou was still healing. The only thing that was keeping him from retreating into his mind was his Yami. Bakura had kept a constant vigil on Ryou and made sure that he light felt safe. Bakura had even tried to ease the nightmares that Ryou had and it seemed to be working.

While Ryou was healing Malik was released from the medical center and was now living with his sister and Odion. The three of them lived in a three bedroom house not that far from the museum. Marik was also living with them. He was not going to let Malik out of his sight any more. He was now more fearful for his light after the attack on Ryou. He was not the only one that was keeping their loved ones close.

Yami was stuck to Yugi's side. Wherever Yugi went, Yami was right there. He felt the same way that Marik did and that was saying much. Yami didn't like agreeing with the Tomb Keeper but having Malik attack and a month later Ryou was attacked it seemed suspicious. Yami was also on high alert because he was afraid that Yugi could be attacked next. He felt that was because Malik and Ryou were both attacked and the only thing they had in common was that they were lights like Yugi was. He didn't take into account that the common thread that held the attacks together was Joey and the dying need to avenge Tristan. The only thing that seemed to be in their favor was the letter that Bakura had on him and that he knew that the attacked who hurt Ryou was Bandit Keith.

With the knowledge that Bandit Keith was the one that Attacked Ryou before Bakura sent him to the shadow realm, Seto was tracking all money wires that were but into Keith's accounts. He had even hacked his way into monitor the accounts that Keith had over seas. He thought that he would never find out who hired Keith when an account popped up. The wire transfer was to Keith but it was encoded and it would take a while to decode it. Seto left his study and headed up stairs to see how Joey was doing.

Joey was now six months pregnant and this worried the CEO because he didn't want anything to happen to Joey. Joey caused them all worry once Ryou was recuperating after his attack.

Flashback

It was a week since Ryou was brought in with Bakura. The other were already at the medical center because they were supporting Malik and his family and even his Yami. Marik was still trying to help his light through his ordeal even if he really didn't know what to do. The news that Ryou was hurt hit hard for all of them. The news that he was raped had Joey and Yugi flipping out of their minds. What made things even worst was that Joey started to feel shape pains in his stomach and at that time he was entering his sixth month of pregnancy.

Dr. Barns said that Joey should not be upset or exert himself because she didn't know what kind of effects it would have on his body. She had never dealt with a male pregnancy before and she had no idea what would happen if Joey got to excited or upset. After learning that Joey should not be upset Seto placed Joey on bed rest and Dr. Barns agreed. Joey's friends could see him if they didn't upset him in anyway. They also couldn't have Joey exert himself so their visits had to be brief, but Joey like to see them and learn what he could about Ryou even if Seto didn't want him to he had to know what was going on with his friend.

End of Flashback

Joey was asleep at the moment. He had been sleeping more due to the fact that their little girl had decided to be come active and kick her 'mother' every night for the past week. Seto walked over and sat down on the bed and watched his 'puppy' sleep. He was so at peace at that moment. Seto had never felt this way since his parents were alive. He placed his hand on Joey's swelling belly knowing that is were his daughter was growing. After a few minutes Seto stood up slowly so he didn't wake Joey and headed out of the room.

Before he got to the door Seto heard the bed creak. Joey had turned over and was staring at the door. "Since you woke us up," Joey said rubbing his belly, "could you bring up some peanut butter sandwiches with pickles on the side and some grape juice?"

Seto nodded and left the room to get Joey his lunch. His stomach was turning over but he had read that when woman are pregnant they had weird cravings so he went with it and entered the kitchen to make Joey's lunch.

As everyone was calming down from the attacks on Malik and Ryou, Duke was planning his next attack. He had plan the whole thing out all he needed now was some one to carry it out. So far he was out four goons and it seemed that news traveled fast because it was becoming harder to find someone to take the bait. He was getting desperate that he was thinking of doing the attack himself when two took up his offer. Duke was elated he sent the two the plans but the attack would have to wait awhile because he was also trying go figure out away to get his letter back so his whole plan wouldn't back fire. After he had his goons on stand by Duke left his house and headed out to meet up with Tea. He needed more information from her so he could use it against her to cover his own tracks.

Tea was waiting at the café. Duke was ten minutes late. He had been late to all their dates if you could call them that. Tea was wondering what was up with Duke because all he wanted to know was how she felt about her friends and their relationships. He rally stressed Yugi and Yami's. She told him that was a hard subject because she was happy that Yugi and Yami were together but se still had feelings for Yami and she was trying move on. She felt as if Duke was trying to draw out every little detail of her feeling for Yami. She let it pass because she thought that he was trying to help her get pass Yami and hanging out with him did that for her. She had no idea that he was really using her.

Back at the manor Seto had made Joey's lunch and was now cleaning up since Joey had fallen asleep again. Once everything was clean up he headed back to his den and saw that the file that he needed was decoded. He opened it up and could not believe what he saw. He now knew who hired the goons that hurt both Malik and Ryou but it make no sense. He knew that this person could not hurt a fly so why would she hurt her own friends. He used the link he had hacked into to hack into her computer to find some kind of clue and he did a diary entry. The entry was all about her love for Yami and she was going to force him to love her. Seto closed the entry and cut the link he had to talk to the other Yamis with this information. He felt sick about what he felt, and then he thought of Joey. Tea was Joey's friend this would kill him if he found out what she was doing. He picked up his phone and called the Marik and Yami and asked them to meet his at the hospital because he needed to talk go them and Bakura.

Seto left telling Doyle to stay and watch Joey and if he asked where he went to tell Joey that he had a meeting that he had forgot about and with that Seto left for the hospital. He didn't want to have this conversation but the others had to know so they could stop her before anyone else got hurt/ He really was just thinking about Joey and also Mokuba but if anymore of Joey's friends got hurt it would destroy him as well as Mokuba and Seto would not have his husband or little brother hurt.

His car pulled up to the hospital and he walked in to have the conversation that would change everyone around him and Joey and not in a good way. He made it to the floor that Ryou was on and was that Marik, Yami and Bakura were there. He sighed and walked over and told him what he knew. All three couldn't believe it and now all four of them realized it was now up to them to tell the others and this was something they didn't want to do.
