Chapter Four

Hank knocked and Joey answered the door. "Come on in" he said.

Serenity went over and hugged her brother and she told him "I had so much fun at Lisa's" and he told her "I'm glad. She then said "dad said that you wanted to tell me something, what is it?"

Seto walked up then and he went over and stood beside Joey and he said "we're going to get married."

Serenity yelled "it's about time" and everyone laughed. Then she told them "I'm so happy for you two and I want to be in the Wedding."

Joey was crying and she asked "why?" Joey said "I didn't know how you would take the news." Serenity stood there with her hands on her hips and she sternly told her brother "I love you and there isn't a damn thing that you could do or say that would stop me from loving you!"

This made the three men cry and Joey couldn't of been more proud of his little sister then he was right then. He went over and held her in his arms and whispered "I love you too."

Seto wiped his eyes and then he said "lets go celebrate by having Ice Cream Sundae's." Everyone cheered and they all went into the kitchen where Mokuba was. Mokuba and Serenity were about the same age and he had a crush on her and visa versa.

He got up from the table when they walked in and he pulled out a chair for her. She smiled at him and they both turned red. Hank, Joey and Seto tried not to laugh at the scene. They all ate and talked about the coming Wedding.

Serenity asked Hank "would you please check the messages? I'm expecting one for Lisa." Hank went over and used the phone in Seto's kitchen and he dialed his number and waited. As he listened to the message he turned white and nearly passed out.

Seto noticed him and he casually got up and walked over and help Hank stay standing. When he put the phone back down he had tears in his eyes. Seto motioned that they go into the other room. When they got to the living room, Seto asked "what's wrong?"

Hank had to sit down and then he told Seto what the message was and he too had to sit down. "Listen I'll have one of my Security men look into this for you if you want?" he told Hank.

"Please do and I'm so damn scared to tell her, but I can't lie to her." he told Seto.

"Daddy, what are you talking about?" Hank heard her ask.

"Come here please" he told her. Then he told her about the message and she fainted. Joey and Mokuba came running when Seto yelled.

"What the hell happened?" Joey demanded to know. Seto told him and he ran over to his father who was holding Serenity. She came to and started shaking so badly that Hank thought she would fly apart.

"We need to get her to the hospital, she's going into shock" Seto said as he called to have his car brought around front. He sped through the streets till he got to the Hospital. They got her inside and Hank told the Nurse that his daughter had fainted.

They got her into a room and Hank asked Seto "to call Dr. Hunter and let him know what was happening and ask him if he will come to the Hospital in case Serenity needs him." Seto called Jeffery "and when he explained what had happened, Jeffery told Seto I'm on my way."

The Doctor examined her and told Hank "she's going to be alright, just take her home and keep and eye on her and if she gets worse bring her back in."

Jeffery got there just as the Doctor was leaving and when Serenity saw him she started crying and through her tears she asked "how much more do I have to take before that monster is put away?"

Hank held her while she cried and he looked to Jeffery for some advice. Jeffery walked over and he told her "I know this sounds like a bunch of bullshit, but they are doing all they can to apprehend him and all we can do is to stay alert and make sure that he doesn't get anywhere near you."

"Daddy I want to go home" Serenity sobbed. Hank picked up his daughter and along with Joey and Seto, he carried her out to the car and Seto took them home. Outside his house he noticed several strange cars. Seto explained "that they were some of his Security men and that they would be there till that bastard was arrested."

Hank thanked Seto and took his daughter inside and sat with her in his arms till she fell asleep. Joey told his father "call if you need anything" and then they went home. Hank sat there almost all night just holding her. He couldn't put her down because he was afraid if he did he would lose her somehow. He closed his eyes and said a prayer that everything would be alright and that that man would be caught and that his baby wouldn't ever have to fear being hurt by him again.

When Seto and Joey got home, Joey said "we are going to be needing more help. We need to contact the Yami's and let them know what happened and ask for their help."

"I'll call Ishizu, she knows where Malik and Marik are and I'll also ask if she can get in touch with Ryou, Bakura and she knows how to contact Solomon who is has Yugi and Yami with him." Seto told Joey. After he talked to Ishizu, Seto felt a weight lift off his shoulders because he knew that in the next forty-eight hours everyone would be there and then they could come up with some kind of plan to catch that bastard and keep Serenity safe.

Back at the Wheeler Residence, Serenity opened her eyes and she couldn't believe that her father must of held her in his arms all night long. She reached up and touched the side of his face and he opened his eyes and smiled down at her.

"How are you feeling?" Hank asked her.

Serenity closed her eyes and snuggled close to her father's chest and softly said "I can't go through that again" and then she just started crying. Hank closed his eyes and he noticed that he was crying too. Hank said this prayer :

Dear God in heaven, keep my baby girl safe and don't let that monster touched her. She is just a baby and she's already been through so much hell in her young life. Protect her and keep her in your loving arms. This I ask in the Lord's name. Amen.

Please R&R.
