FudoTwin17: Hey, guys. Um, I'm sorry it's been so long, but I'm not feeling too well, but I really wanted to update for you guys. Sorry if it's crappy. I just don't feel well. So, I don't own any series of Yu-gi-oh.

Chapter 9

Rebecca began to back up. They shocked and startled her. She backed up, feeling their curious gazes on her.

"It's okay." Aki interrupted. "She's a friend."

Rebecca blinked at the same time that Aki's friends did. She cleared her throat, "Uh, hi." Oh, how she wished she hadn't been there right then. But it would all be worth it. That's what she kept telling herself. That's what she needed to be true.

The first male looked at Aki as if she were crazy, but sighed and introduced himself. "I'm Jack Atlas."

Another male smiled more kindly. "I'm Crow. Nice to meet you."

The last male, who was muscular and probably around collage age gave an obnoxious grin. "Hi! I'm Leo!"

The girl, who looked just as young and very much like the younger male gave a more shy smile. Due to her looks and such, Rebecca estimated her to be his sister, possibly twin. "Hi. I'm Luna."

Rebecca smiled. "Hi. It's Rebecca Hopkins-"

Jack's eyes widened. "You!" He hurried forward, grabbing her by her wrists. "What is wrong with you!"

"Jack!" Those behind him yelled.

"You think that talking to her about this-this prank will do any good! This stupid-"

"It's not a prank!" Rebecca interrupted, unable to hold back icy tears as they ran down her cheeks. "Alexis saw them! All of them! Jaden! And-And Yusei! And . . . and Yug-Yugi." She found herself sobbing.

Jack was at a loss for words. He couldn't say anything. Everyone was in shock.

"They . . . they saw them?" Crow whispered.

"Maybe that means that we can get them back!" Exclaimed Leo excitedly.

Luna looked at him sadly. "Maybe."

"We've always won against the bad side!" Leo said.

Without looking back, Rebecca stated her case darkly. "Yusei said not to come for him."

That caught everyone off guard. Jack found his sudden hopes crushed and then come back even stronger. "What? Something is wrong with him if he thinks we'll abandon him! We-"

"All-all of them said that."

That seemed to freeze them. Crow stepped forward in refusal. "No way! We've done everything! We aren't going to ignore this! Especially if they think that it's impossible."

Luna frowned. "How?"

"By fighting back!" Yelled an unexpected voice from behind them as the door was flung into the wall. There, behind them in a hospital gown was someone else who understood their positions perfectly. Alexis Rhodes. "What is wrong with you? You're not going to give up because they told you to, are you? If you are, you are all idiots."

"Alexis!" Shouted a voice at the same time three still young voices yelled "Ms. Rhodes!"

Then, a woman around Alexis's age walked in with young high school kids behind her. Everyone paled. They were the same age as them when everything began, when this was decided to happen. This was bad.

"What is wrong with you? We could get them back!" She seemed to turn on Jack. "And you need to shut up about-"

"What?" Growled Jack.

"Yusei, Jaden! They're back! Yugi, too!"

. . .

Yugi sighed after having seen and heard everything from his balcony across the street. He cursed under his breath before turning sharply and strutting into the main room where Yusei and Jaden sat. With one sentence, they were immediately paying attention.

"We've got a problem."

"What?" Jaden asked, his eyes narrowed as he sat very still.

"They aren't going to let us go." Yugi replied. "And, they've teamed up."

Yusei sent a silent curse in Yugi's direction. "How?"

"Many of them were in the hospital. And Rebecca-" He flinched, "somehow figured that out and got them all together. They won't stand down."

Jaden frowned. This was more than bad. "It had to be this close?"

Yusei frowned in tragic agreement. "We'll just have to go through with the mission. They'll stand in our way, but we have no choice. We have to finish this."

The other two nodded.

This was bad.

FudoTwin17: Yeah, pretty bad, I know. I hope it was good enough. I just feel bad. Yeah, Bye. I'm sorry for it's crappyness.
