It hadn't even been a full hour since Marik had taken Namu out of the hospital, and Marik was already beginning to get anoied with the boy. All Namu had done since they left the hospital was ask Marik an endless stream of questions about everything that the pair happened to come across. Marik Groaned deeply as Namu jumped to his side and gasped, "WHAT'S THAT THING!?!" Namu was pointing to a blimp in the sky and clung to Mariks arm ignoring the irritated sounds emanating from the teen.
Marik looked to the blimp and sighed, "That's a blimp." Marik turned his head to Namu who had pushed himself closer to Marik and cowered as the blimp turned in their general direction. Marik rolled his eyes at this and stated flatly, "Don't worry it won't hurt you." looked up at Marik as if to question his judgment, "I promise it won't." Namu smiled at Marik and began to skip ahead of him.
Marik chuckled at his actions and smiled as they came across an icecream parlor. Turning to enter the small store Marik whistled to get Namu's atention, seeing the boy turn at the sound Marik signaled for Namu to followed him into the store. Once inside the two were hit with a cool breeze and the sweet sent of countless flavors emitting from the back of the store. Marik pointed to a table and Namu rushed over to it to clame it as theirs, while Marik walked to the counter of the store and smiled at seeing Joey. "Sup Joey haven't seen you since battle city."
Joey looked up at Marik, "Your still hanging around Domino? I thought you would have headed back to Egypt by now."
"No Ishizu was offered a predominant job at the museum, so we bought a house just out side the city."Marik smiled at the blond, "We're officially staying."
"So long as your not gonna go all crazy on us again, I'm glad to here your staying." Joey smiled and looked over at Namu and his joyful expression dropped to one of horror."I-is that?"
"No it's not my yami...His hair isn't scary enough for that." Marik leaned against the counter and watched Namu observe at the people passing by the shop. "His names Namu and I have no idea were he came from..."
"Namu huh?" Joey looked at the boy wearily, "He looks a lot like you."
"I know that's one of the reasons I helped him." Marik sighed and looked at Joey, "When I found him he was as good as dead."
"Really? But he looks fine...How long ago did you find him?" Joey turned away from Namu to stair at me.
"I haven't known him for more than a day."Marik smirked as the hyper blond jumped in shock.
"S-so that kid's was almost dead yesterday?!" Marik nodded as Joey looked at Namu in shock. "That's impossible."
"You still think things aren't possible after Battle City?" Marik laughed
Joey shook his head no and mumbled, "Well it was nice catching up and all but if my boss catches me slacking of I'll lose my job."
"Right well I came in here for ice cream so, I'll have a double scoop of mint chocolate chip...."Marik looked through the list of flavors and smiled," And a double scoop of strawberry for Namu." Joey nodded and began to make the order while Marik turned to watch Namu again, The boy had began to stair blankly at the sky. Joey handed the cones to Marik and went on to the next customer. Marik made his way to the table and smiled handing the treat to Namu, who took it and tilted his head in confusion.
"What you don't remember ice cream?" Marik smiled licking his and watching Namu mimic him. Namu's face lit up and he began to eat the frozen delicacy on his own, Marik chuckled as he finished his cone and saw the sticky mess Namu had made. Namu whimpered as a napkin stuck to his hand and looked to Marik in distress. "Come here." Marik rolled his eyes as he lead Namu to the stores restroom.
Marik wet a paper towel and began to clean of the boy's face, it didn't take long to clean his face but explaining to Namu how to wash his hands. Well that was a different story all together.
"Come here and put your hands under the faucet!" Marik ordered trying to pull a now struggling Namu to the sink.
"No!" Namu whined and fought against Marik's grasp.
"Damn it Namu it's not going to hurt you! Now put your hands in the sink!"
"No!"Namu began to cry.
"Your hopeless!" Marik said in eritation pulling Namu to the sink and forcing his hands under the water. "There was that so hard?!"
Namu looked to the floor as Marik finished washing his hands sobbing silently to him noticed this and sighed feeling guilt build up inside of him. "Namu I'm sorry okay?" Marik tilted the boys head up and wiped a tear from his face, Namu warped his arms around Marik and nuzzled into his cheast. Marik gasped as the door to the restroom opened, To reveal Joey stairing blankly at the scene before him.
"Maybe I should just leave...." Joey said turning to exit the room. Marik sighed and shock his head pulling away from Nemu and turning to Joey, who ran into the door as he tried to leave."Ow..."
"You really are clumsy you now that?" Marik walked to Joey's side and helped him up.
"Thanks....Um sorry if I ruined your moment..."Joey blushed as Namu came to Marik side.
"Who's he?" Namu asked innocently, no longer upset over the sink incident.
"This is Joey, Joey this is Namu." Marik said as Namu smiled at Joey.
"Hi." Joey smiled as Namu clung to Marik's side. "I think he's attached to you."
"Great that's all I need right now..." Marik grumbled walking past Joey, with Namu clinging to his side, "I'll see you later Jou I need to go see Ishizu." Marik said leaving the store and starting for the museum. 'Maybe Ishizu can help me with Namu.' Marik smiled at the thought and continued on his way to the museum, with difficulty due to Namu clinging to him.

"Marik what are you doing here?" Ishizu gasped seeing her brother enter the museum, and seeing the boy along side him she frowned, "Who's he?"
"Well he's the reason why I'm here." Marik looked from Ishizu back to Namu attempting to hide from Ishizu's gaze. "His name is Namu."
Ishizu frowned reaching out to Namu only to have him push himself closer to Marik. "Well he's clearly attached to you." She signaled for the two to follow her through the museum and into a room at the back of the large building. The room was small with a single window, two chairs in front of a desk, all in all the room was rather dreary. Ishizu sat behind the desk and Marik and Namu took the seats in front of it.
"So..." Ishizu sighed after hearing the story behind Namu, "He can't remember anything?"
Marik shook his head no and sighed, "Not a thing."
Ishizu looked at Namu in pity, "So he'll be staying with us?" Marik nodded and Ishizu sighed, "To bad we didn't get a house with a guest bedroom..." Ishizu took a minute to think about the problem at hand, and smiled as she came to a conclusion, "He'll stay in your room!"
"W-what!?!"Marik gasped stairing at his sister in disbelief, "Why my room?!"
"I thought it would be obvious." Ishizu looked at Namu and her eyes softened, "He trust's you Marik, and he's lost his memory so your probably the only thing that can comfort him." Ishizu looked at her younger brother and smiled, "He'll sleep in your room and that's that."
