Hello again people. I have nothing to rant about today soooo I'm just gonna start the chapter.

Also sorry if I misspell some things. Shippo keeps jumping up onto the computer. (No not shippo from inuyasha, shippo is my cat)

WRANING CHARACTER DEATH

"I see….." Mutsumi said looking up towards. "That's a pretty crazy story."

"And it's all true." Yugi said, trying to keep the nervousness from his voice. Mutsumi smiled at him.

"Don't worry I'm not going to report you or anything. You are here by a series of unfortunate events." He said looking at Yugi with a sly smile. "Also my boss said that I should help protect you from those who are after you." Yugi blinked.

"Your boss? Does that mean you were following me?" Yugi asked. Mutsumi shrugged.

"Not exactly," he said. "Boss said if I saw you to protect you. I was here because I love Rome this time of year and I saw you leave the hotel. Then I started following you." He said coolly. Yugi didn't know whether to feel thankful or angry. He didn't have much time to think though because Anna slowed down and started walking with them.

"Is something wrong?" Yugi asked. Anna looked at him, worry apparent in her eyes.

"It's Shaki. Ever since we left the café she's been acting weird." Both boys looked at her.

"What do you mean?" Mutsumi asked.

"Well……"Anna began

Flash Back

"That was awesome!" Anna cheered as they left the café.

"It had better been for fifty bucks!" she said waving her arms dramatically. Anna chuckled. Both girls jumped when they heard something come from the ally they were walking by. The ally was pitch dark and smelled far worse than it looked.

"Sis……."

"I'll go check it out." Shaki said reassuringly and before her sister could protest she went into the ally way. Anna stood there waiting for her sister, her fear and worry rising. Finally Shaki came out of the engulfing darkness, but something was different.

"So what was it?" Anna asked. Her sister shrugged.

"It was a cat." She said plainly as she started walking. Her sister followed reluctantly.

"It's getting dark lets go back to the hotel." Shaki said making a turn on the road to the hotel. Anna didn't say anything she just followed her sister. The got back and Marik and Yami were sitting at the table by the TV.

"Where's Yugi?" Yami asked.

"I thought he stayed here." Shaki said. "If you want we can go look for him." Yami nodded and the two left again.

"Where should we look first?" Anna asked.

"I say we should check woodland areas, like a forest or something." Shaki relied. Anna just stared curiously at her older sister.

"Well from what I'm aware of there is only one forest here."

"Then let's check that." Shaki said brushing off her sister's suspicious gaze as she walked off.

End flashback

Both boys looked at her.

"I think your sister lied to you about the ally. If I remember correctly weren't almost all animals banished from here?" Mutsumi asked. Anna nodded.

"And it's weird. She knew exactly where to look for you and these woods are huge!" Anna said. They were so busy talking they didn't notice that Shaki had led them deeper into the forest. Mutsumi stopped walking.

"I sense a disturbance." He said giving Shaki a cold look. She turned, her normally bright blue eyes a cold blue.

"You're smarter than you look Flyboy." Shaki said in a voice that wasn't hers.

"Shaki what's wrong with your voice?" her sister asked worriedly. "Shaki" smirked as black smoke surrounded her. What came out of he smoke was a brown haired woman holding Shaki's non-moving body.

"N-no way…..It's impossible!" Yugi shouted backing up. The brown haired girl smirked and dropped Shaki's lifeless body.

"Sis!" Anna shouted as her sister dropped to the ground.

"Don't bother." The brown haired girl said "Her soul has already departed." They were in trouble. Shaki was in tears over her sister and Yugi was scared into submission. Their only hope was a winged blond boy. The girl scowled.

"So Kaiba sent one of his angels huh?" she said. Mutsumi chuckled.

"So what did you expect?" he asked snapping his fingers. As pair of swords appeared. One black and one white. The brown haired girl raised an eyebrow.

"So he sent a Demi Angel(2)? Not the most obvious choice." Mutsumi smirked.

"Obvious? No. Smart? Very." He said. And their battle began.

"If I may ask, what is your name?" Mutsumi asked.

"What does that matter?" the girl asked as she pointed her staff at him.

"I like to know the name of the people I kill." He said with a hint of ecstasy in his voice.

"Noble aren't we? If you must know my name is Tea. You can leave here alive if you just hand over the brat." She said.

"Yes but then I wouldn't be fulfilling my duty." He said coolly. Tea shrugged and shot a spell at him, which he dodged with ease. He went at her with both swords and she tried to fend them off with her staff. Mutsumi smirked and brought back his white sword. He stabbed Tea in the stomach and she fell to the ground. He looked down at her.

"After this you won't be coming back." he said as he put both swords together.

"Death was too kind to you. Only your own personal hell is all the more fitting for the likes of you(1)" he said as he stabbed both swords into the girl. She screamed as a vortex of black consumed her. He went over to a still trembling Yugi.

"Are you all right?" he asked. When he had dodged the spell it had went towards Yugi so he was already slightly worried. Yugi nodded his head shakily and Mutsumi smiled reassuringly. He then walked over to where Anna was sitting over her sister's lifeless body.

"Come on." He said. "We should at least give her a proper burial." Anna nodded sniffling and they cleared away some snow. When they found the ground they dug it deep enough so that the rain wouldn't wash it away and they lowered Shaki's body into the hole. Yugi had come over after he had calmed down slightly and was doing his best to comfort Anna. Mutsumi said a few words of respect and re-covered the body.

"We should head back." Yugi said coldly. No one objected and the walk back to the hotel was silent.

End Chapter

Sorry it was so short. I started writing this at eight-ish and it's now……ten twenty eight and my dad said I had to get off. Please review.

(1)For those who have either A. read the manga or B. watched the Japanese anime should know what I meant by "Personal hell" but for those who don't, someone's personal hell in Yugioh and in this story is the Shadow Realm.

(2)Demi Angel's are angels who are born from Heaven and Hell, hence the black and white swords and the fact that he was wearing Halloween colors and had white wings.
