Alright here is chapter 22 for some reason this one was done weeks ago but I forgot and just looked now.....opps.

Chapter twenty two: Fight for a Friend continued.

YAMIS POV….

Anu seemed more determined than ever because she had taken the lead and we were now trying to keep up with her. Did she know why the card had stopped glowing? Was Joey in trouble?

"Hold on you guys" Tea said and we stopped for a moment. I looked back at her, she like the rest of us was breathing heavily and she was clutching her heart.

"Come on Tea, there's no time to rest." Tristan said "Joey is probably dueling that Valen guy right now"

As tired as I was Tristan was right we needed to keep moving. I glanced at Anu who was panting and standing on shaky legs.

"Which means if we don't hurry he'll be one soul short" Tristan was worried.

"That's why I stopped" she said holding up the map. "According to this he's nearby, we need to stop running and starting looking down each street."

She had a point; I glanced at card I had yet to put back in my deck.

"Pharaoh" she said "what's wrong"

She walked over to me but I didn't answer.

"Is it Joey" she guessed

"I am not so sure" I finally said "but just a moment ago I could sense the presence of Joey's legendary Dragon card but it's gone. I dear his dragon was destroyed"

"You don't think Joey lost do you" Tristan said

"No way" Tea responded firmly "tell him"

"Tea" I snapped "I can't be sure until we find him"

Anu barked at my feet and nodded her head into the air then to the ground.

"What is it Anu."

She stuck her nose to the ground and then looked back at us.

"Anu can you find Joey" she nodded "alright Anu, find Joey"

She barked then took off, us following her.

We ran when I noticed Anu stop, because of the momentum we ran past her and stopped. She and Tea were staring down an alleyway.

"Hey guys you've got to see this." She said as we ran back.

In the sky was a glowing blue and white light shooting straight up into the sky. Like two power houses had just rammed into each other and this was the result.

I looked back at my card to see it glow again.

Joey I thought

Anu suddenly growled and took off down the alleyway, Tristan groaned

"We really need to get her a leash" Tristan said as we took off after Anu

"And have her drag you across Town, no thanks" Tea responded as we tried to catch up with the dog.

We had caught up to Anu who had been looking down every alleyway she could when I grabbed her harness.

"Hold on Anu" I said

"We've searched every block and no sign of Joey" Tea said

"Maybe that tracking systems screwed up" Tristan though but I looked forward were the light had come from.

"We need a new plan"

I pulled Timaus out of my pocket and looked at it.

"You all right Yuge" Tristan asked me.

I glanced at Anu who was staring straight ahead in a trace. She blinked and looked at me and her eyes almost seemed to say 'trust me'

I let her go and she took off

"Come on man we just caught her."

"This way quickly" was my only reply taking off after her as well?

"Yugi wait" Tea called

A few blocks over Anu stopped and watched the sky and so did I.

The green seal was coming down.

"Oh man Joey" Tristan said

"It's the seal of Orichalcos" I said if this was here that meant either Valen had just played it or this was a totally new duel and he was ok. "We all know what that means"

"Yeah, it means someone is going to lose their soul" Tristan said

"Then let's go" Tea said and Anu took off in the lead again.

We ran around looking down every alleyway but Anu seemed to want to keep running forward.

"We've got to find him" Tea said out of breath. I could hear police sirens in the back ground, did that mean Darts was looking for us as well, remembering what Tea had said about police being under his control.

"Joey where are ya man" Tristan called

As we ran by and new block, one of us would stop and call down it. I was getting impatient, we had to find him.

"Joey answer us" I yelled

"Hello"

"I could swear that Orichalcos thing activated right here"

I nodded, but it was hard to judge distance from an air born green seal. Anu sniffed around and gave a howl as if she was calling for him to. For all I knew, maybe she was

ANUS POV….

I howled hoping I would catch the dumb blonde's attention. The humans behind me were talking and the female was panicking, they had judged distance based off sky. That was never a wise thing to do. The other master's eyes narrowed and I knew he was desperate to find his friend.

I growled and he took off.

"Hang in there Joey" I heard him mutter.

I put my noise to the air again but his sent was covered by oil and engine fumes, and garbage. I couldn't make heads or tails of all the scents.

I suddenly felt a shock in me and I stopped. The others ran past me but stopped as well.

"Hang on guys" some said "something's wrong with Anu"

They gathered around me as I stood shaking.

"Anu" the other master said bending down to my level. I whimpered and whined. The dumb blonde, Joey….i looked up at the master then gave am agonizing howl.

YAMIS POV….

Anu howled in pure Agony and we covered our ears at the sound. The look she gave me, she knew, something terrible had just happen…but to whom.

I glanced at the card in my hand

"Oh no"

"Is it Joey" Tea asked

I looked at the sky as Timaus appeared on its own.

"I am afraid so" I said as Anu whimpered beside me.

The Dragon gave of a sad roar and I felt my heart break. Even Timaus was feeling the loss of our friend. And his as well. Timaus then faded back into his card.

"Anu" I said as I noticed her standing

She growled then with speed I didn't know she had left she took off.

"I think she knows where Joey is" Tristan said as we followed.

After a bunch of Turns and calls for her to slow down we finally came to an opening in one of the alleyways where Anu just stopped. We caught up with her and I stared at one of my worst nightmares.

Joey with his head down, leaning on the chain link fence. His soul clearly gone.

"No way" Tristan said after Tea gasped.

"What happened" Tea asked

"He lost the duel" my voice sounded shocked even to my own ears.

"Wait does that mean?" I cut Tea off

"Yes, his soul belongs to Darts now"

Anu growled next to us and we looked down at her. Her blue eyes had tears in them and her fur was standing on ends, blue sparks of energy was coming off her. We took a step back as they lashed out at us. She growled and I knew she would make Darts pay, just like I would.

ANUS POV….

My power, my birth power glowed around me in my anger. The dumb Blonde, no Joey was gone, his soul was on its way to the great Beasts belly.

I howled long and loud as my power lashed at the other humans.

You hear me Darts" I said through our broken link and to the world through my howl

I will get you, I will get you and make you suffer for every pain and agony you caused me for 10000 years, you will pay for every life you took, for every soul you stole, you will feel their pain and mine, YOU HEAR ME, I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND YOU WILL PAY!!!!"

I growled, he would pay dearly.

angry Anu, more of her powers are shown....makes you wonder what she will do to Darts once she gets a hold of them. she already bit Kaiba, stupid armbands. read and review
