A/N: This chapter may seem a little rushed. It's been a hectic couple of days for me. I hope you enjoy!
----------------------
A couple of weeks later, Seto was standing in his room. Kisara was sitting on the bed and he could see Seth a few feet away from him.
"It's been two weeks," Seth observed.
Seto sighed, "I know it's been two weeks, but we can't do anything. The only lead we had on them was killed and they haven't been doing anything. They must know where she is, so why haven't they done anything?"
"Well if you were them would you have done anything?" Kisara asked.
"Well if they went through all that trouble to find her..." Seth said to Seto.
Seto looked at Kisara, "It is a lot of trouble to go through finding you to not do anything about it after two weeks."
"Oh, I know, but we've been a step ahead of them, haven't we?" Both Seto and Seth looked at her strangely. "We're always in a crowd or in this house; with security systems they are unlikely to get past. There have been a couple of times it's just you and me, but it's still would've been risky if they were to attack. Their best bet is to corner me alone and you haven't let that happen. By now they're probably fine with it just being you there, but you've always have people around you unless you're in this house."
"You're right," Seto said, Seth nodded.
Kisara laughed. "Guess they didn't count on me becoming so close with the person who is probably the only one in Domino that could protect me."
Seto smiled.
"We still have to do something; you can't just keep hiding her. They will get to her eventually," Seth noted.
"Well if they aren't going to come after us we're just going to have to lure them out," Seto said.
"What?" Kisara asked.
"The sooner we can stop them, the better," he commented.
"Seto, these people are murderers. We're safe from them right now, it'd be crazy to make them come to us," she argued.
"Do you remember what Ishizu said? That there had been other sightings reported along with murders and disappearances? You're not the only one that might get hurt because of these people. And there's an even bigger problem," Seto said. He and Seth had all ready talked about this.
"What's that," Kisara asked.
"They're after you and the others for a reason. The sightings show that these people somehow know how to access their spirit monsters, even though it's highly unlikely t hat they have the same connection to their Ka you do. They're building up some sort of an army," he explained.
"What? And you still intend to lure them out on your own? You have no idea what you're up against," Kisara said.
Seto looked at Seth, then back to Kisara. "There numbers will still be small now. We think we know how they're going to fight, and we can handle it. That's why Seth's here anyway."
"But what if... I mean, they killed my parents and they killed Yukio. People I know have died, but what if the next person to go is someone I care about," she said softly. "I don't want to lose you."
"You won't," Seto said, taking her hand. "I just hope I don't lose her," he added.
Kisara just smiled sadly.
"You're both prepared this time. You've all ready done more than I was able to do," Seth said.
"So what's the plan, then?" Kisara asked.
--------------
The next day Kisara looked up at the house she hadn't entered for weeks. The safe haven she found in Domino when she had run away. The people who had invited her in had now been forced to leave because of her. These people that were after her were probably watching the house. Most of her and her aunt and uncle's stuff had been left behind; they had to come back sometime. And there would be no one else around for whatever would happen to draw attention.
She was standing on Seth's right, her arms wrapped around herself. She closed her eyes, wishing that they didn't have to do this right now. She wished that she could just be with Seto right now, somewhere safe. Here she couldn't help but feel so utterly worthless. She couldn't do anything against these people. She held such a great power and she couldn't even use it to fight and protect herself or the person she cared about. The ironic part seemed to be that this power was the reason she needed to protect herself anyways.
But still she came, because these people didn't want to risk her dying. As long as she was here, they were at least protected from then using lethal force, though if they were able to separate the two of them...
She looked at Seth. She couldn't even have it really be Seto, which would have been so much more reassuring. But if something happened to Seth, then since they shared the same body, it would be as bad as something happening to Seto. She wondered if Seto could see her right now. If he was watching or if he was away thinking.
"Are you ready?" Seth asked. Kisara nodded as they headed into the house.
----------------
Everything that happened next seemed to be in a rush.
They hadn't been inside long when two men that Kisara had never seen before showed up. They walked in slamming the door. Both seemed young- probably in their twenties- and wore all black. A bit cliché for bad guys. Probably just recruits that thought they were tough, not the people behind this whole mess. Kisara didn't have much time to critique their looks, though. Quickly accompanied by the men were two creatures... their spirit monsters.
Kisara froze in disbelief and fear. They certainly appeared to live up to the name of monsters. They were hideous and frightening. Kisara briefly wondered if this was what it would be like to see her own dragon.
"Ha, we thought you two were smart, but then you walk right into our trap," one said, causing the other to laugh as well.
"Actually, it seems like you're the ones who've walked into a trap," Seth replied calmly, smirking. Seth gripped the Millennium Rod.
His monster appeared. Kisara marveled, feeling completely detached from the battle. Unlike the others, Seth's spirit did not frighten her. It seemed more powerful than the others. She smiled.
--------------
In no time Seth's monster had taken care of the other two, and he had left the men to stagger away while Seth's spirit disappeared.
"That's it?" Kisara wondered aloud.
"Now that they know what we have against them, they'll come back eventually. Now all we have to do is wait," Seth said. After a minute he spoke again. "Some how they were controlling their spirit monsters. They shouldn't be able to do so as freely." He shook his head. After a pause he turned around.
As he looked up into her eyes, she saw Seto was back. "Seto!" She threw her arms around him. He held her in return.
"Let's go," he said, both wanting nothing more than to get home.
