Sorry I didn't update earlier, but I was doing a countdown of my favorite fan fictions I've read. You can find it on my forum. Anyways, here's the next chapter. I hope you like this. Review please!

Seto, Mkalburti, Pharaoh Seth, Yubel, Joey, Tristan, and Yugi were waiting for the girls to return from rescuing Mokuba. Seto was the one getting impatient for their return. He was close to blaming Mkalburti and his father for involving them in this mess. Hopefully, Mokuba was okay and he would return with that gold apple he retrieve from the statue of the mermaid. Seto sighed while looking out over toward the ocean.

"Hey look!" Joey called out to everyone as they looked ahead and saw Mokuba and the others climbing out of the hole. Silent Magician was carrying Tea, Amethyst pounced out of the hole (since she had the ability to jump to very high places), Mokuba flew on Blue-Eyes White Dragon, and Mkalburti's monster flew out of the hole. The Ka monsters disappeared after dropping off Tea and Mokuba.

"It seems our friends have made it out and Mokuba has passed another trial," Mkalburti said with a small smile.

"And almost killing my brother in the process!" Seto added, glaring at Pharaoh Seth and his son.

"At least everyone is safe!" Yugi said, trying to prevent any fight. "We should be heading out."

"Yugi's right!" Tea agreed.

Yubel's jewel began to glow green and Amethyst Cat disappeared with Emerald Turtle taking her place. Everyone climbed aboard and the old turtle began swimming across the sea. Tea began getting seasick and lied down with Joey being the one to rub her tummy, since Yugi wanted payback for teasing him about his crush on Tea. It wasn't long before everyone made it to the other side of the sea.

"So, you know the location for any of the other trials?" Mokuba asked.

"Many of the other trials are at Dalor's field. He has made this game with a huge disadvantage for you. That is why Judei couldn't win," Yubel explained.

"Then, we can go to Dalor's field! Even in Capsule Monsters, the player can go to the opposing player's side right?" Joey suggested. Yami shook his head.

"That is a huge risk to do so. It's easier for your opponent to take you down, because of his amount of monsters," Mokuba explained.

"That cheat!"

"He uses the advantage to make his opponent less powerful with weak items," Mkalburti explained.

"Reminds me of someone I know," Yami smirked, eying at Mokuba, who shot him a glare.

"Wait... Yami, how did you defeat me the first two times you played Capsule Monsters against me?" Mokuba asked, coming up with an idea.

"I just used the teamwork of my monsters and their abilities," Yami replied, wanting to know what Mokuba was going with this.

"Then, that's what I have to do. I have to use the same strategy the other Yugi used against me!"

"What do you mean?" Mkalburti asked. Yami smiled, knowing exactly what Mokuba was going for.

"You guys and the items. They may not seem much, but it's good enough weapons against Dalor, if I use their abilities to my advantage. This necklace gives me map of this Si-San World and curtain abilities, the Book of the Dead can help Judei and his army, and the golden apple can help me and the rest of us as well," Mokuba explained.

"How?"

"Yubel, can you take the Book of the Dead to Judei? Tell him I'm going to need his army," Mokuba told Yubel, handing the Book of the Dead to him.

"I shall do just that," Yubel agreed, taking the Book of the Dead.

"What about that golden apple? Doesn't seem like it can do much," Joey wondered.

"It can change me into a fish and there's a promise I have to keep," Mokuba said, showing a sly smirk. Everyone rose two eyebrows. "Seth, can you change to my age or younger?"

"Of course," Pharaoh Seth smirked.

"I'm gonna need you to do that where we'll be going. I'm also gonna need Tea to come along. We'll be talking to a couple of mermaids," Mokuba explained.

"You're crazy!" Mkalburti glared.

"Hear me out. If we can convince them to be on our side, we'll have a chance to defeat Dalor. I doubt if they're any happier being here as the rest of us. I've already met one, and from what I've seen, she seems... human."

"That eats men," Mkalburti smirked.

"I mermaids can change human. I saw the mermaid that helped Mokuba. Atlas did seem more human than monstrous, now that I think about it," Tea said.

"Did you say Atlas?" Mkalburti asked in pure shock, turning pale.

"You know her?" Mokuba asked.

"Once long ago. I thought she was killed by..."

"Dalor right? That means whatever he did to her was no different than what he did to the rest of the mermaids."

"Then, we'll go," Mkalburti agreed with furrowed eyebrows, after thinking about this for a few moments.

"Same here," Pharaoh Seth replied with determination in his eyes.

"What about the rest of us?" Joey asked.

"You guys can go with Yubel and I'm sure Judei can equip you with some weapons. I'll meet you back after we gather up the mermaids," Mokuba said.

"You think they'll want to join forces with us?" Tristan asked.

"I'm sure of it!" Mokuba declared. He got out the golden apple as Pharaoh Seth instantly changed into a 12-year-old boy.

Mokuba, Mkalburti, Pharaoh Seth, and Tea ate the apple before they all changed into mermaids and jumped into the sea. Yubel and the rest of the gang walked on their way to Judei's kingdom to give him the news. Mokuba was curious about Atlas and her connection to Mkalburti. How they know each other? Did Mkalburti ever meet the mermaids before? What was his connection with them? These questions filled his mind.

Either way, now was not the time to ask questions. They all had to swim to the mermaids' location. Maybe if they traveled there, these questions will be answered.
