Joeys and Tristan's mouth dropped. The other's eyes bugged out. It was nighttime.
"Yugi." Mokuba said uncertainly. "Are you sure we're in the right address."
"I'm positive.' Yugi said in the same uncertain tone.
"I'm know it!" Joey yelled, pointing at the place where Jolinar and Ausar lived. "I know there was a house here!"
Where Jolinar's and Ausar house would be, there was now an empty space , with garbage and grass growing on the ground. There was no indication that there was ever a house here.
Tea looked at the place. "Oh boy. Are we in the right address?"
"Tea. This is the right place." Yami took over and walked closer to the empty spot. "This exactly where Jolinar's home should be."
/Do you think something happened/ Yugi asked.
/I don't know/ Yami said honestly.
Mokuba walked back to the car. "I'm gonna go check Kaiba corp." Mokuba said determined. The others followed. "Maybe Kaiba corp. has information on them." The driver drove them to Kaiba corp., where Roland was running the business. Mokuba was too young to run anything, but he trusted Roland.
Mokuba and the others went straight to the elevator, all the way to the top where Roland was. In respect for Seto, Roland did not occupy the same room as Seto did. "Roland!" Mokuba barged into the room, scaring the crap out of him.
"Gah!" Roland yelled, knocking some papers from the desk. "Oh. Mokuba." Roland sighed. "You shouldn't scare people like that."
"Sorry Roland." Mokuba apologized quickly. "I need your help."
Roland regained his composure. "What do you need?"
"I need you to find information on someone called Ausar Marduk."
Roland nodded. "Right away Mokuba." He stopped what he was doing. He took out his laptop and began typing. "Marduk Ausar you say, right?" The laptop bleeped. "I'm sorry Mokuba. I've got no information on anyone called Ausar Marduk."
"Say what!" Joey yelled.
"Try Jolinar Marduk." Mokuba said sternly; sounding a lot like his brother. Roland nodded and began typing again.
The laptop beeped again Roland shook his head. "No. I'm sorry Mokuba." he looked back. "There's no information about someone called Jolinar Marduk or Ausar Marduk."
Mokuba frowned. "Try descriptions then."
Roland nodded. Typed and the laptop bleeped. "Go ahead."
"This is Jolinar Marduk: height 6.1, Age seventeen, Hair brown, Eyes blue." He paused. "He looks a lot like Seto." Roland nodded, still typing, "Ausar Marduk: height 6.3, age around forty, hair brown and gray, eyes…eh…silver."
"Silver?" Roland looked at Mokuba questionably. Mokuba just shrugged. Roland resumed back to his researching. "Not many have eyes like that. He'll be easy to find." Everyone waited. The laptop bleeped. "I'm sorry Mokuba. But I can't find anyone that looks like this Ausar. There is no one with silver eyes. There are many people with the other descriptions as him, but I can't find anyone with silver eyes. As for Jolinar, there are many people who fit that description, your brother included, but he's missing." He scrolled down. "I'm sorry Mokuba. I can't find any one with the name Jolinar."
"Search for last names then." Mokuba ordered. "Check if there's anyone in Domino City, past and present, who had the last name Marduk."
Roland went on typing. He shook his head. "There is absolutely no one with the last name Marduk."
Mokuba groaned. "Well, then check who lives here." Mokuba scribbled down Jolinar's address in a piece of paper and gave it to Roland. Roland typed down the address and waited for the results.
He sighed. "The address you gave me does not exist. There is no house with that address."
"Hey look here buddy." Joey said. "That computer is wrong. You hear me? Wrong. There was a house there two days ago!"
"Joey." Mokuba looked at him. "We have the most up to date computers here. It can't be wrong."
"So…" Tristen folded his arms. "If the computer is right, then…Jolinar and Ausar don't exist?"
"But we saw them!" Mokuba yelled angrily. Here was a person who resembled his brother, a person who could be him. And now he was gone. "They're real!"
"Um…why don't we check again?" Tea tried to calm Mokuba down. "Maybe we'll see them there."
"If you don't mind." Roland closed the laptop and stood up. "I would like to come with you."
"…?" was everyone's impression.
"When Mokuba says that he saw a person that does not exist in any database…I believe him. Mokuba is not capable of lying."
Mokuba smiled. "Well, I am capable of lying, but I'm not lying right now. Thanks Roland." Roland nodded.
They all left the building quickly and went straight for the car and straight for Jolinar's and Ausar's home. It was the same when they reached there. Deserted and no clue that a house existed here.
Roland looked around uncertainly, "Mokuba, are you sure this is the place?"
Joey leaned over to Tristan. "That's got to be the fifth time somebody asked that question." Tristan nodded in agreement. Mokuba nodded at Roland's question. Tristan sighed. Were they gonna fin anything around here?
Something caught his attention.
There was a bush a few yards away from them. Small and normal. Except that it was glowing. The glow grew larger and larger and escaped into the air where it continued to grow. "Uh…guys." Everybody looked at him and he pointed at the bush. Everybody was dumbstruck. Yami took over in case something bad would happen. The light grew taller and wider. Soon it was tall enough for a person to got through and wide enough for someone to spread their arms in comfort.
00000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo
Jolinar was standing in front of Ausar and Enki, taking the full blow of the death spell. The next he was on the ground; him unconscious and smoking.
Enki just stood there with his eyes closed. He didn't see it happen. But he could hear it. He could hear the heart beat of Jolinar slow down. Enki growled . His limps shook and he bared his teeth. He opened his eyes and they glowed a blue color. His tail stood up and he crouch as if ready to attack. Ausar looked at him worryingly. Enki lifted his head up and howled despairingly.
The wind blew and the ground that bound him and Ausar lifted. They were now free. Aron watched at Enki with interest. Enki howled more and a tornado encircled him. The tornado then electrified and encased Enki; covering him from Ausar's and Aron's view. All they could see was his silhouette
Then they his silhoutte split into two, one dog and one human.
The light and tornado died down. Enki and another person were standing. Enki was on all four, crouching and growling angrily at Aron. The other person…
Was Enlil.
He hadn't changed much. He looked the same as he did when he disappeared on the day that Aron attacked their village.
"You're dead." He growled, his voice sounding inhuman. It sounded more like that of a human and a dog's growled. Enki barked in agreement.
Ausar was speechless. In front of him, was his brother. He thought he was dead! Ausar then understood what Aron meant by calling Enki a loyal brother. Somehow, Enki and Enlil merged. Ausar closed his eyes and shook his head. Now he understood Enki's understanding of the human speech and reading. He would've laughed had the situation been less severe.
Aron put his hands behind him. "Now this-" He looked at the two humans and dog. "Is what I call a reunion. Very touching." He looked at Ausar. "Now you can die a little bit more peacefully."
"Not today." Enlil grabbed the dagger that Ausar had gotten from Jolinar and flashed. He stood right behind Aron. He held the dagger next to Aron's neck. "You're the one who's going to die soon." He slit Aron's throat and jumped high into the air. In mid air he threw the dagger at the mind bender. The mind bender saved himself by running away. Enlil landed gracefully on the floor. "I have no grudge against you mind bender. But I suggest you leave."
Enki threw a blast at Aron. Aron did not dodge it. He was hit.
Ausar used the moment to grab Jolinar and went straight for the exit. He knew that Enki and Enlil were trying to get some time for him to leave. Enki and Enlil were satisfied. Enlil chanted when he saw Ausar get near close to the cave's exit. The water melted into the ground. In a flash, Enki and Enlil were running along side Ausar.
The mind bender watched them leave and looked at the dry lake. Right there was his chance for freedom! He looked at Aron who looked in pain. He looked up at the dry lake and then Aron. He made his choice.
He was going to make a run for it.
He ran for his life. Hell, he was able to keep up with Ausar and the others.
Once they were at the lake's edge, Enlil chanted once more and the lake refilled itself. They ran some more until to the point that the mind bender had to stop. Ausar put down Jolinar and took a breather. Enki was on the ground panting and Enlil was leaning against a tree and holding his side.
"He's going to" gasp "Kill them" The mind bender gasped, his hands on his knees
"Who?" Enlil grunted.
"My family." The mind bender said sadly. "The only reason I was in league with Aron was because he threatened to kill my family if I don't help him."
"You shouldn't worry." Enlil looked up at the sky. "We met some people and they mentioned that Aron was busy trying to conquer the world. I doubt he has time to kill your family."
The mind bender looked at the ground uncertain. Enlil sighed. "How about you join us?"
The mind bender looked up. "Hmm?"
"Look, you hate Aron and we hate Aron. You want him dead, we want him dead. There's going to be a war. But with your skills, I bet we'll be able to defeat his troops."
"I don't know…"
"We should get going." Ausar got up.
"Hold it brother." Enlil panted. Enki got up and looked at Enlil. "Our time is up."
"What?" Ausar didn't understand.
"Our separation was only temporary. " Enlil explained. "We'll soon be one again."
"Is there any way to reverse this?" Ausar asked despairingly.
Enlil shook his head. "Unless Aron dies, we will always remain this way."
Ausar sighed. "I see." Enlil and Enki began to glow. The mind bender and Ausar understood what was happening. Enlil and Enki turned to light completely and fused together. "I'll miss you brother." When the light was gone, only Enki was standing there. He barked sadly.
"Alright." Ausar started to begin business. He lifted Jolinar and put him on Enki's back. "Enki, run to where we came from and open the portal to the other world. I don't care how, but take him to Mokuba's place. Then get our weapon and get back here." Ausar sighed and closed his eyes. "But leave Jolinar there."
Enki whimpered questionably. "This is not his place Enki. His home is with Mokuba. His family is Mokuba." he looked at the ground frustratingly. "I hate to say this but I think-no…I know he's Seto Kaiba, brother of Mokuba Kaiba. Our war has nothing to do with him." He looked up at Jolinar. "He's safer there then here."
Enki nodded his head, understanding. Ausar adjusted Jolinar on Enki's back and took a step back. In a flash, Enki was gone.
"Mind bender." The mind bender looked up when he heard the authority in Ausar's voice. "What's your name?"
The mind bender bowed his head. "Briar sir."
"Briar then. You come with me and stay close." Despite the previous fight, Ausar and Briar ran fast. Ausar looked at his right and saw a light. He knew that Enki has already reached the portal.
00000000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooo
There was a rumbling noise and the light glowed blue and then white. Then it flashed and showed a huge dog, Enki they were able to tell, running at them with someone on their back. They could tell the person was hurt and was unconscious. As Enki got nearer, they recognized who the person was.
"Seto!" Mokuba ran at the light. Yami grabbed him before he can enter the light. Enki saw them through the light and barked. The light was starting to shrink. Enki ran faster and jumped through the light and into the pavement. He skidded and then fell, gasping for breath and was over Kaiba in a protective stand.
"Seto!" Mokuba yelled again. He ran to him, Yami letting him go. "Seto!" He pushed Enki, who just grunted, and shook him. "Seto! Are you ok? Where were you?" Kaiba was just limp and unconscious. He had injuries and his right shoulder was bleeding.
He was cold and pale.
"Mr. Kaiba!" Roland said in surprise.
Roland and the others ran to Mokuba and Roland put two fingers on Kaiba's neck. "Mokuba, we must take him to the hospital. He's barely got a pulse. We-"
"N-no." Kaiba opened his eyes slowly and groaned. He shut them again. Enki's ears perked up and he looked at Jolinar. "No hospital." His head fell to his left. He was unconscious again.
"I don't care what he said." Mokuba blurted. He took Kaiba's left arm and put it over his shoulder. "We got to take him to the hospital. Roland, help." Roland to the other arm and put it over his shoulder.
"I-I'll get the car ready." Tea left. The others followed her and Roland and Mokuba walked as fast as they could. Enki barked; making it clear that he was going with them. They went straight to the hospital. Tristan and Joey were the first to leave the car once they reached the hospital. They ran to the entrance and practically grabbed the nurses and doctors by their collars.
"WE NEED A DOCTOR!" Joey yelled. Security ran to unhand him and Tristan from their victims. "QUICK! HE'S GOT NO PULSE!" Sure, they weren't good friends of Kaiba's, but they cared to say the least.
"Hey!" Mokuba yelled. He entered the building by himself. Yami and Roland were carrying Kaiba. All eyes went on him. "I need the best doctors you got!"
"Excuse me sir." a nurse went up to him angrily, her hands on her hips. "This is a hospital. Please, lower your voices-hmm?" she looked at the unconscious and bleeding body between Roland and Yami. "OH MY GOD! IT'S SETO KAIBA!"
Murmurs ran through the hall way and people got out of rooms to see the commotion. The voices grew louder as they saw who the unconscious boy was . Doctors sprang into action and they took out a wheel chair. Yami and Roland carefully seated Kaiba in one and they followed the doctors who went into the rooms.
A nurse looked down and saw Enki. "Excuse me." She said to the gang. "No dogs-"
"Grr." Enki growled shutting up the nurse.
Nurses laid Kaiba into a bed and took of his coat. They put on wires on his body and put those oxygen masks on him. The shoulder wound was bleeding too much and the doctors raced to stop the bleeding. They noticed bun marks and broken bones on the boy.
"He's barely got a pulse." a doctor reported, looking at a screen. The heart beep made a noise every fifteen seconds, surprising the doctors that he was even alive. They tended to disinfect the small cuts on him.
"Please." a doctor said, looking at all of them. "you all must all leave and let us do our work. We-"
The heart monitor ceased to make any noise. "He's not breathing." a nurse replied.
"Seto!" Mokuba was ready to run towards him, but Tristan held him back. "Help him!"
One of them took out those shock thingies and gave them to the doctor. Her rubbed them together and put them on Kaiba's chest. Kaiba bounced and the heary monitor gave a steady heart beat. The doc looked at them and they got the message. They left with a second glance to see Kaiba unconscious, bleeding and with wires on him.
"W-will he be alright?"
"Don't worry. Of course he'll be alright." Tea assured. "He's Seto Kaiba isn't he?"
Mokuba smiled. "Yeah." He heard a whimper and saw Enki. Enki was on the ground, with his head on top of his front paws. Mokuba frowned. "Where was my brother?" He demanded, expecting Enki to answer. Enki just looked at him and looked as if he smiled.
If you only knew child. Enki thought. If you only knew.
It was strange having a human mind. What he didn't understand when he was just an ordinary dog seemed amazing to him. The concept of human speech and the ability to read. Ha! What would other dogs say? He shrugged mentally. Can a dog shrug mentally? He shrugged mentally again. Probably not.
An hour past before a doctor came out of the room. He walked towards them and he looked at each and every one of them carefully. "Well?" Mokuba said. "How is he?"
"Your brother…is alright." Everybody sighed in relief. "If you don't mind me asking…?"
"Hmm?" Mokuba looked up.
"Where has Kaiba been?"
"We…we don't know." Mokuba answered. "How is he?"
The doctor frowned. "Come with me." Yami, Tea, Tristan, Joey, Roland, Mokuba and Enki followed him to the room that Kaiba was in. Kaiba seemed alright. He had a bandage over his shoulder wound.
He was still unconscious.
"Look," The doctor took out a cutting tool and pressed it over Kaiba's right hand, making it bleed.
"Hey!" Mokuba exclaimed.
"Watch." The doctor wiped the blood and showed the hand to the others. Everybody watched as the wound began to smoke a bit and began to shrink and disappear completely. It was healed.
Enki barked and licked Kaiba's face.
"Hey!" The doctor went to grab Enki. "Be careful-" Enki went to the doctor and licked him as well. "Ew."
"His hand healed." Yami said.
The doctor nodded. "Right now, he seems to be in a coma. I don't know how, but…it seems that his wounds are healing. Even his internal wounds."
00000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooo
Jolinar woke up to find himself in front of two mirrors.
He blinked and looked around. He had no idea where he was. There was eternal darkness surrounding him and only two mirrors in front of him. Jolinar coughed and nearly choked when he tasted blood in his mouth. He gagged and spat out the blood in front of him; shivering as he wiped his mouth with the back of his sleeve.
"Are you alright?" Jolinar looked over his shoulder and saw a woman wearing a black cloak and looked exhausted. Jolinar blinked and then he recalled the kidnapping, the binding of his mind and the return of his memories.
He looked away from the woman and looked at his reflection in the mirrors. Before, he expected that he would be happy getting back his memories. He expected that he would feel complete. Hell, he expected to do the happy dance-if there were such a thing-. Instead, he felt confused, lost, alone.
A part of him wasn't sure if the memories were real, perhaps they were a trap from Aron. Or a figment of his imagination, desperate to have his own identity. He didn't know what to think. A part of him knoew that the memories were true and he gripped his locket and his knuckles turned white as he looked back angrily at his mistakes. He let go of the locket, fearing it would break.
He opened his locket and smiled when he saw Mokuba. In the last seven months, the locket was jammed, he had no means of opening the lock; but now it was fixed for some reason.
'I'm sorry that I wasn't there for you Mokuba.' Jolinar's smile disappeared. Remembering the past few days, he was glad that Mokuba did alright without him.
It was still a bittersweet thought though.
"Are you alright?" The woman repeated herself.
Jolinar closed the locket and put it underneath his shirt. It wasn't that he didn't want to look at it. It was just out of the habit that he got the last seven months. "No." He said honestly. He looked back at her and glared. "Who are you? What do you want?"
The woman looked at him amused. "Who I am or what am I doing doesn't matter." The woman closed her eyes. "The real question is-"
"Who are you!" Jolinar blinked and looked at the direction of the mirrors. He took a step back as his reflection on the right pointed at him angrily. "Are you Jolinar Marduk or Seto Kaiba?"
"What-"
"Choose!" His reflection yelled at him angrily.
"Why on earth is my reflection talking at me?" Jolinar muttered.
"He's right you know."
"Hmm?" Jolinar looked at the mirror at his left and saw his reflection cross his arms. " Who will you be? Jolinar Marduk or Seto Kaiba? There can only be one mind, one personality, one memory." As the left reflection said this, the reflection on the right mirror lifted his left arm and a duel disk appeared.
"You left Mokuba alone!" The reflection with the duel disk yelled. "How could you have done that?" Three card appeared on his hands he put one of them in the duel disk. Jolinar heard a roar and took a step back. In the right mirror, behind his reflection, appeared a blue eyes white dragon. At the same time, Mokuba appeared at the reflection's side. He looked at Jolinar sadly. "Why did you leave me? You said you would always be there for me."
"You promised to stay with me to win the war against Aron." Jolinar looked at the left mirror and saw Ausar and Enki behind his left reflection. "You said that you would help me get revenge for our family." Enki barked in agreement.
"I know I did!" Jolinar yelled. "I-"
"You must choose." The left reflection said. "Will you be Jolinar Marduk-"
"-Or Seto Kaiba?" The reflection on the right said.
Mokuba got closer to his reflection and looked at Jolinar worryingly. "Big brother."
"You promised that you would help father." The reflection on the left said. "You said that you would help stop the war that Aron would soon create. We're so close into stopping him."
"What about the village?" Ausar asked him. Jolinar looked at Ausar. He was always told he was the spitting image of Ausar. Looking at Ausar was like looking into the future and seeing Jolinar older. "Will you leave and let them just die at the hands of Aron?"
"I don't know." Jolinar whispered. He covered his ears. He didn't want to hear more of this. "I don't know. Leave me alone!"
"Big brother." Mokuba looked at him. "Why did you leave me?" Jolinar looked at his brother's innocent face. "Why aren't you home?"
"Right now is not the time to choose." The woman walked towards him and laid a hand on his shoulder. "Right now, you must heal." Jolinar nodded and felt a wave of sleepiness overcome him.
'I may not have to choose-' Jolinar thought ' But I am going back to Mokuba.'
0000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooo
Enki.
Enki perked his ear. He looked at Kaiba who was still unconscious. He went over him and sniffed him. He then saw Kaiba open one of his eyes slowly. The blank expression that Enki saw in the previous fight was gone. Life and soul has returned to those blue eyes. Kaiba closed his eye.
I'm going home.
Enki was about to growl. He remembered what Ausar told him.
Not to Ausar. Kaiba said mentally. I'm going back to my old home. Just give me a moment.
Enki resisted the urge to bark and went back to Mokuba's side.
"You can stay for the night." The doctor said; leaving.
/hey Yami/
/hmm/
/Do you still think that Jolinar was Kaiba/
Yami looked at Kaiba. /The moment that Ausar and Jolinar disappeared, Kaiba came back./ Yami crossed his arms. /This is very confusing./
Everybody took some chairs to sleep in and, unnaturally fast, fell asleep immediately.
000000000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooo
"Unh…" Mokuba rubbed his eyes and felt something heavy on top of him. He looked down and saw that Kaiba's trench coat was over him like a blanket. He looked at where Kaiba was recovering and jumped out of his seat when he didn't see his brother. The trench coat fell to the floor. "Seto's gone!" Mokuba yelled. Everybody was jerked awake.
"Who? What? where?" Joey jerked up.
Mokuba pointed at the empty yet neat bed.
"Where's Enki?" Yugi said, rubbing his eyes. Enki wasn't in the room either. Roland ran out the room and went to find the security room, determined to find a camera on the room.
0000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooo
Roland found the film and put it on an available TV. Doctors and security people were with them, trying to figure how was it that no one noticed the missing Kaiba.
The video played and it showed everyone asleep. Mokuba gasped when he saw his brother open his eyes. "He's ok!" The video continued as Enki ran up to him and licked his face. Kaiba just pushed him off, gently mind you. They watched as Kaiba made the bed-Ausar drilled in some manners into him- and opened the window inside the room. They watched as he looked back at the sleeping group and took of his coat. He walked to Mokuba and placed the coat over him. Mokuba turned but did not wake. He went back to the window.
Their eyes bugged out as they watched Kaiba and Enki jump of the window, down six stories below.
"Unreal." One of the security people said.
"But he just came." Mokuba said sadly. "Why did he run away?" He walked out the room. "I'm going to go home. Maybe he went there." He yelled behind him.
Just as he reached the first floor, he was attacked by vicious reporters. Lights blinded him and questions and yells and bodies prevented him from going any further. Yami, Tea, Tristan, Joey and Roland ran downstairs and watched the whole ordeal.
They watched Mokuba tremble and balled his hands into a fist. His head was down and his eyes were shadowed. He clenched his teeth. "ALRIGHT!" He yelled, pointing at the group of reporters. "WHO'S THE BLABBER MOUTH?" The reporters looked at one another shrugging, others keeping their mouths shut.
"Mister Kaiba, is it true that Seto Kaiba has been found." Someone broke the silence. And then all chaos began.
"This way." Roland whispered at Mokuba. "I ordered a helicopter to come pick us up." He looked at the others. "We must go to the roof." he tried to say as quietly as he could. He didn't want the reporters to know where they were going. Then they ran as hell all the way to the roof top.
Clearly, the reporters did not go where they were going and they were all mashed up in a group.
Roland was true to his word. There was a helicopter waiting for them on top of the roof. They all quickly went in, and as soon as the last person was in, they lifted off towards the mansion.
They all sighed in relief.
000000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo
Kaiba jumped off the window and gracefully landed down six stories below. Enki soon followed him and gave a questionable bark. Now what?
The mansion was not far off. Kaiba didn't want to risk taking a cab and having the news media attack him like piranhas. So, he had to resort to something he had denied the existence seven months ago.
He would have assistance of magic.
He looked around and found no one near where he was. First, he closed his eyes and concentrated in bringing his power forth. He snapped his eyes open and they glowed a red light. The nearest cameras turned off and Kaiba closed his eyes. He opened them once more and they remained normal. Now, for five minutes, anything that will happen will not be recorded by the cameras.
Now, he needed transportation. He looked at Enki. Enki would be his mode of transportation. It took him too much energy to heal himself for him to use his own power to go home. And there was no way that he was going to call a taxi or his own limo. He didn't feel like having human company just yet.
Enki understood. Kaiba hopped on to Enki's back-he wasn't really heavy, he was as skinny as a stick! And Enki was a big dog and has carried heavier people before- and he smirked. Had someone told him he would be using magic to go anywhere seven months ago, he would've laughed in their faces.
Kaiba looked up the hospital window from which he escaped and sighed. He didn't want to leave Mokuba, but he needed time to think. He looked away and looked ahead of Enki. It was time to go back home and see what has changed.
Anyone walking through the streets near Kaiba would have seen him one moment on top of a giant dog. They would blink and the boy and dog was gone.
00000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooo
One minute, they were in front of the hospital. The next, Enki was running at the speed of sound with Kaiba guiding him to their destination. It took them thirty seconds to get to the mansion. They were at the front gates and Enki looked over at Kaiba. Kaiba stared at the house with a cold expression. His eyes showed no emotion.
Enki looked away. To him, Kaiba was still Jolinar. His behavior severely confused him. He was used to Jolinar Marduk, the one who can be read like a book. He was not used to Seto Kaiba, the cold, emotionless C.E.O.
"Take us to that balcony." Kaiba pointed at the place he wanted to go to.
Enki snorted and took a couple of steps back. He looked at the gate and calculated how much energy he was going to use to jump over that gate.
"Hold on." Enki stopped. He looked at Kaiba and saw him doing the same thing that he did at the hospital cameras a moment ago. Enki did not know about the security system in the mansion. Then, every security system temporarily shut down. "Done."
Enki nodded and took off. He ran and once he was close to the gate, he jumped and was able to go over the gate. The sensitive security system did not go off and Enki jumped four giant leaps before getting into the balcony. Kaiba jumped off of Enki and walked to the door. He went to the glass door and slided it open.
Kaiba looked around his room and rose an eyebrow. "Jeez. It's so neat." There was no dust on the floor or bed or anything. It was if the room was cleaned everyday. Enki walked into the room cautiously. He looked at the big room and sniffed the air. He caught Jolinar's scent everywhere, as if he had been here before. Enki took a big whiff of the air and also recognized Mokuba's scent. He also smelled a tiny scent of Ausar, meaning that he had been here recently.
A light bulb appeared on top of Enki's head. Now he understood. He looked at Jolinar who was standing still. This was Mokuba's house. Enki laid down where he was and put his head over his front paws. He took a big yawn and looked at Jolinar. Jolinar walked to the bed and laid down. He closed his eyes and said, "Enki, don't let anybody in." Yawn. "I'm tired…" Jolinar immediately slept and Enki heard him breathe slowly.
Enki just shrugged. He himself closed his eyes and darkness took over him. The previous fight took a toll on him and, he too, must heal his own wounds.
0000000000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo
"Are we there yet?" Mokuba yelled at the helicopter driver.
"Yes!" The helicopter yelled back. He pointed at the mansion. "We should be there in ten seconds."
"Finally." Mokuba muttered. They landed on the front lawn of the mansion and, just as the helicopter touched the ground, Mokuba jumped out and ran to the front door. He took out his key and opened the door. He ran inside.
"Hey wait!" Yugi shouted. The others jumped out the helicopter as well and ran after Mokuba. They heard Mokuba's loud footsteps going up the stairs.
'Where's he going?" Tristan asked as he ran with Roland, Yugi, Joey and Tea.
"To Kaiba's room." Yugi answered.
Mokuba ran across the hallway and nearly slipped when he went past the carpet and into the nice, recently cleaned floor. He reached Kaiba's bedroom and tried to open the door. It wouldn't budge.
"Seto!" Mokuba pounded on the door.
000000000000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo
Enki heard the coming footsteps as he stretched. He was not as battered as Jolinar and, therefore, he did not had to rest after his healing.
Enki pounced at the door and placed a paw upon the door handle. His paw and door handle glowed a blue color. Enki grunted. The door was now locked and Jolinar can now sleep peacefully. Enki laid down once more and put his head on his front paws. He closed his eyes.
He heard the door handle jiggle and would have smiled. The door did not open. He opened an eye.
"Seto!" Mokuba's voice was heard. Then Enki heard pounding. He twitched at the noise and he stood up. He growled and the noise muffled. It was as if there was a sound barrier between the hall and room.
Enki looked at Jolinar and saw him sleep undisturbed. Satisfied, he laid down once more.
000000000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooo
Mokuba kicked and pounded on the floor. The others looked at him as if he were crazy. "Why-"Pound "won't-" pound "It-" Pound "Open!" Pound! Kick! Pound!Pound!Pound!Pound!Kick!
Yami took over and grabbed Mokuba's hands. "Stop it before you hurt yourself."
"But Yami." Mokuba looked at him with tears in his eyes. "Seto's in there, I know it!" He looked at the closed door angrily. "Why won't the stupid door open?"
"Then stand back." The udjat symbol glowed on Yami's forehead. The millennium puzzle and door glowed a dark color. Then, a white glow appeared and seemed to be fighting the dark magic. Then the white glow faded and the door opened slowly.
Mokuba broke free of Yami and ran into the room.
00000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo
Enki looked at the door, happy that the noise was gone. He got up and stretched once more. He looked around the room once more and was impressed at the size of it. He looked at the door once more and was shocked to see shadow magic enveloping it. He watched as his own power on the door fought the shadow power, but it was futile. Enki took a step back as his spell faded and jumped in front of the bed that Jolinar was sleeping in. He crouched and bared his teeth, ready to fight the intruder.
The door slowly opened and someone entered. Enki was ready to attack when he saw Mokuba entered. Had he been a person, he would've sighed in relief. He watched as the gang came in and someone he didn't recognize came in as well.
Mokuba ran to Kaiba, but Enki blocked the way. "Hey!" Enki twitched at the noise and looked at Kaiba, who turned to his side. Enki growled and bit his right paw. Blood poured out and Enki dipped his left paw with the blood and wrote on the ground: QUIET!
Everybody looked at him amazed.
"The dog…just wrote something." Roland looked at Enki with disbelief. Enki dipped his left paw into his own blood and continued to write on the floor, shaking his head like a human. Mokuba stopped his approach to Kaiba and looked at Enki. Enki stopped writing and grunted, signaling that he was done. He moved out of the way to let them read what he wrote.
They looked at the blood at the floor in astonishment: QUIET! Mokuba, let Jolinar sleep. He had much going on today and he must REST! Don't wake him up. Now, if you excuse me, I need to rest as well. By the way, who destroyed my spell on the door? AND WHO WAS MAKING ALL THOSE NOISES WITH THE POUNDING AND THE SCREAMING?
They all looked at Enki, who was licking his bleeding paw. He looked up at them, waiting for the response to his question.
"Uh…" Mokuba scratched the back of his head; embarrassed. "The pounding and the screaming was me. Eh he."
Enki rolled his eyes. "And the one who destroyed the magic in the door was me." Yami walked to Enki and looked down at him.
'He blocked the door with a spell?' Yami raised an eyebrow. 'But he's just a dog!'
Enki grunted and looked away. He looked at his bleeding paw. Mokuba noticed and looked at Roland. "Hey Roland. Can you bring some bandages?"
Enki dipped his paw in the blood and wrote once more one the ground, not caring that he was dirtying the floor: No need. I'll heal myself.
His right paw glowed and hissed. In three seconds, the wound sealed up and was good as new. He licked the dry blood. He smacked his lips at the taste of copper.
Tea looked at the writings that Enki wrote. Her eyes widened when she saw Jolinar's name. She tugged Yami's shoulder and pointed at the name.
"…!" Yami noticed the name and looked back at Kaiba. "That can't be."
/It looks like our theory was correct./ Yugi said to Yami.
/Indeed it was. But where's Ausar/ Yami looked around, thinking that Ausar was in the room and that they didn't notice him. No Ausar.
"Mokuba?"
00000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo
"Have you chosen yet?"
Kaiba opened his eyes and found himself once again in front of the two mirrors.
"No." Kaiba whimpered. He took a step back, suddenly feeling cold and scared. "Leave me alone."
His reflection on the left frowned. "We can never leave you alone." Ausar and Enki appeared behind the reflection once more. "Just like Ausar and Enki would never leave you."
"Shut it!" The reflection on the right snapped. He looked at the direction of the left mirror "He has to be me! Seto Kaiba!" The reflection looked at Kaiba. "You made a promise to your brother. You said that you would take care of him!" He pointed at Kaiba. "Why did you break your promise?"
Kaiba's chest twisted when he heard of his promise. He swallowed the lump in his throat. "I don't know. I don't know why I broke my promise."
"He must be Jolinar Marduk." The reflection on the left said. "He made a promise to Ausar and the village to fight Aron and banish him!" He looked at Kaiba. "You promised them."
"I-I did."
"You promised Mokuba first." The reflection on the right hissed angrily. "Why are you leaving him alone? Why aren't you there for him!" A duel disk appeared on him.
Kaiba covered his ears; wishing that this would stop. "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" he closed his eyes. "JUST SHUT UP!"
"Choose!" The right reflection said.
"Go away." Kaiba whimpered. He fell to his knees. This was unlike him. He was Seto Kaiba. But he was also Jolinar. He couldn't take this anymore. "Just go away and leave me alone."
"You owe your life to the people of the Village of Traders." The reflection on the left said. The reflection took a step forward. "Without them, you would not have survived the wound that the stalker gave. Without them, you would not have had shelter. Without them, you would not have met your family."
"The only family he has is Mokuba!" The reflection on the right argued. "Mokuba is always first."
"Nuh-uh." The left reflection argued back.
"Please." Kaiba begged. "Just stop it. Just stop it already."
"Nobody in the realm like you as Kaiba." The left reflection said.
Kaiba looked at the left mirror. "What?"
"You had no friends and you were forced to be an adult at a young age. Do you wish to go back to that?"
"He had his brother." The right reflection argued.
"Who probably was ashamed of him. Who probably didn't even love him" The left reflection argued back. "As Seto Kaiba, C.E.O of Kaiba corp. he barely paid attention to Mokuba. Don't you think Mokuba feels rejected?"
"That's why he has to go back." the other said.
"I bet Mokuba would want someone else as his brother rather than a cold hearted bastard who only cares about his company!"
The two of them argued some more. Kaiba ignored them, thinking about what the left reflection said. Can it be true? Would Mokuba rather have someone else as his older brother rather then him? Does he not want Kaiba around anymore?
"Think of the pain Mokuba is going through." The reflection on the right said. "Think of the sadness and sorrow that you're making him feel. Do you want that?"
"No." Kaiba said.
"Then go back."
"What about the others?" The reflection on the left said. "They're all in danger!"
"They can take care of themselves." the other snapped. "they've been fighting that war before him for years. They can continue without him."
"But-" Kaiba stopped himself. The reflection on the right was right. The others can continue to fight without him.
Right now, Mokuba needed him.
00000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooo
Kaiba stirred in his bed. He opened his eyes and sat up, using his hands for support and looked around.
His room was occupied: Roland, Joey, Tristan, Mokuba, Tea and Yugi were there. He rubbed his eyes, trying to wake up more.
"Mokuba?" he whispered. Mokuba tensed and looked at Kaiba. They both looked at each.
"Seto?" Mokuba said uncertainly. Kaiba smiled and nodded. "Seto!" Mokuba jumped on the bed and gave Kaiba a bear hug.
"Oof!" Kaiba grunted when he felt Mokuba huge bear hug. He smiled again and returned the hug.
Mokuba sobbed. "You're ok!" He wiped his eyes, trying not to cry. He did not let go of his brother though. "They all thought you were dead. But I didn't." He released his brother and looked at him. "I didn't believe you were dead. I knew it in my heart you were alive." Mokuba's face scrunched up and tears formed in his eyes once more. "I knew you were alive." He sobbed. This time he could not stop the river of tears. He hugged his brother again and cried on his shoulder. Kaiba held him tightly and closed his eyes. He regretted taking that damned walk that led him to his disappearance. He sighed and looked at the group of people in his room.
"So is the rich boy ok?" Joey asked with a grin.
"Tch. Of course mutt." Kaiba said with a serious face.
Joey laughed. "Yup. He's alright, alright."
They all stayed quiet as the two brothers had their reunion. Tea sniffed and wiped a tear. "This is so touching." She sniffed.
"How are you Kaiba?" Yugi took a step forward.
"Fine, I guess. What's it to you?" was his answer.
"Sheesh." Tristan said. "He's just wondering how you've been. Can you be any more rude?"
Kaiba smirked. "Of course." Kaiba let go of Mokuba and finally noticed Enki.
Enki looked at him uncertainly. He can sense there was something different with Kaiba, who he knew as Jolinar. Kaiba sighed, whether of desperation or relief, the others didn't know. "It's good to see you ok Enki." Enki barked happily.
"Wait a minute." Tea said. "Doesn't Enki belong to Jolin-" She looked at Kaiba. "Are you…"
Everybody looked at him. Kaiba sighed once more. "Everything's so…confusing." he admitted.
"Where were you, big brother?" Mokuba asked.
"…" Kaiba didn't answer.
"Tell us Kaiba." Yami took over. He stepped forward. "Are you Jolinar Marduk?"
Kaiba hesitated. "Yes."
Mokuba repeated his question. Kaiba shook his head. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you."
"Oh come on." Tristan said. "You're looking a group whose seen things that other people wouldn't believe. Just tell us already!"
"Start at the beginning please." Mokuba said.
Kaiba groaned. Enki jumped onto his bed and got comfortable, knowing that this was going to take a while, he might as well get comfortable.
"When I went for that walk that day, I was attacked."
000000000000000000000000OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo
I am dooooonnnneee! Please forgive me for not putting this up as I said I would. It's just that in the middle of this chapter I had writers block and I'm sorry that this chapter sucks. I know that the reunion could have gone better and I'm sorry that it wasn't. I did the best I could!
Now, ASJ JOHNSON THANK YOU FOR YOUR LONG REVIEWS! -squeal- They make me feel so much better! And for your questions: Enki has the mind of Enlil within him. So in a way, Enki is Enki and Enlil at the same time. That's why he seems as if he is smarter than your average dog. But Enlil is dormant. Only Enki is "awake" so to speak. And now for the transportation spell: If you go back to chapter two, Apolla said "I can make a portal." The spell that she used was a transportation one. When she hurled it at Aron. Aron just caught it and threw it at Jolinar. In later chapters, I wrote that Enlil died that night (somewhere) and I felt bad. So this was a new idea and so the transportation spell can have "a rather nasty side affect", causing a human's soul and an animals soul and body to merge, but the human's body is soulless or dead. This happened to Enki and Enlil. Enki is the loyal brother: Enlil. And now the words: Yeah, about that. When I'm rereading the chapters before posting them, I looking if it's ok, do I have to make any changes and stuff like that. Then I go to check spelling. But when I'm checking for the spelling, it doesn't help that my imagination takes over and I pay more attention to what's happening in the story. And the "Aron looked at Aron" thing, it also doesn't help that I know what's going to happen next so when I saw "Aron looked at Aron" I saw instead "Ausar looked at Aron.". Please forgive me! I'm only human! And the "disappeared.", I meant "disappear.". yet again, I'm sorry for the spelling mistakes. And what I meant to you was that you weren't one of those readers who don't leave reviews. You leave friendly reviews that make me feel better.
And about not getting 100 reviews yet…I think I have to beg. The last two chapters, I begged for reviews and I got more than usual. Begging is the key to life!
I hope you can forgive some of my grammar mistakes. -check time- Dude, it took me like ten minutes to right all this reply.
