Chapter Four

When K'Jut disappeared and Serenity's soul returned to her body, the statue that Joey was holding vanished, and he screamed, "SERENITY!" Then Joey passed out.

When the Shadi and the Yami's took Serenity's body to the hospital, Ishizu had gone back home, where she found Joey was lying on the floor, he had fainted.

Ishizu hurried over to him and as she touched his forehead, Joey opened his eyes and he said, "It's my fault all this happened, if I just left the damn statue alone, none of this would have happened and my sister would still be alive."

Ishizu told Joey, "Listen to me, you didn't cause any of this to happen, Arkana is behind this and even if you hadn't taken the label off the statue, that abomination would have still gotten out.

Arkana wanted to get rid of the Yami's and then he would of come after Shadi and myself, you see he wanted to be the extreme ruler of all the people, but when it didn't work out, Arkana just wanted Bakura and the other two Yami's dead."

"Where's my sister?" Joseph asked her.

Ishizu told him, "Your sister is in the hospital, the doctors are worried about her."

"Is she going to be alright?" He asked.

Ishizu didn't want to give him false hope, so she said, "Shadi believes that if Arkana is destroyed then your sister will get better."

Joseph then said, "I'll find that bastard and I'll kill him myself." Ishizu was terrified that he really would so she waved her hands and he fell into a deep sleep, she needed to get in touch with Shadi and let him know what's going on.

Shadi told the Yami's, "I have to come up with some kind of binding spell that is stronger then Arkana's black magic, but in order to do that, all three of you will have to keep him from finding out what I'm doing."

Bakura said, "Don't worry, we'll keep him occupied, you just find that spell and then maybe we can sent that bastard to the shadows where he can be destroyed once and for all."

When the Yami's went to find Arkana, Shadi returned to the Ishtar's home only to find Ishizu crying, he went over to her and said, "My love what's wrong, why are you crying?"

Ishizu then told him what Joseph said, and Shadi's eyes too filled with tears, then Shadi said, "I need your help; we have to find a binding spell that will be strong enough to bind Arkana.

Then I can take him to the Shadow Realm and destroy him, then maybe Serenity Wheeler will come out of the coma and she'll forget everything that's happened to her."

Ishizu then asked him, "What about Joseph, will he forget too?" Shadi put his arms around her and then he said, "My love I will make sure that Joseph forgets everything, I promise."

Ishizu then said, "Let's go to down to the basement and maybe there we will find the binding spell you need." So they climbed down the stairs and reaching the basement, Shadi and Ishizu started going through all the scrolls there, while in another part of Domino, Bakura, Marik and Yami are searching for Arkana.

In the Hospital:

Serenity was lying on the bed, her body was hooked up to all kinds of tubes and she had IV's in her arms and legs, there was also a breathing machine making sure that her lungs were working.

Inside her mind she woke up in a beautiful place, it had trees and beautiful flowers, birds of all kinds singing and then she looked and sitting under one of the trees, she saw someone who looked familiar, it was her grandmother.

Serenity ran over and sat down next to the old woman and asked, "Am I dead, is this heaven?"

The old woman smiled at her and then she said, "No Rene, this isn't heaven and you're in limbo, what I mean is that you haven't died, but if they can't find out what's wrong in time, then you will."

Serenity started crying and the old woman put her arm around her and asked, "Child why are you crying, don't you love this place?"

Serenity wiped the tears from her face and said, "Yes this place is beautiful, but I miss my brother Joey, I want to tell him that I love him and not to be sad."

The old woman smiled at her and then she said, "Child, like I said, you're not dead yet, if they find out what's wrong then you'll wake up in the hospital and you and Joey will be together again."

Back to where the Yami's are:

Marik fell to his knees and he growled, "That's where Arkana is hiding, but we've really got to be careful, the power that's coming from that place scared the hell out of me."

Yami then said, "We've got to give Shadi and Ishizu enough time to find that binding spell, so lets go and have a little fun, shall we."

Bakura and Marik said, "Let's go." Then all three of them entered the building and they felt the power emitting from inside and it was all they could do not to pass out. Bakura then said, "Marik, contact Shadi and let him know that we've found Arkana and he's got to hurry, we don't know how long we can keep him busy before he destroys us."

At the Ishtar's home:

Shadi got Marik's message and he was terrified to let Ishizu know, so he kept it to himself, he only told her, "Marik contacted me, they've found Arkana and he's even more powerful the I knew, they're going to give us enough time to find that binding spell.

In the living room of the home:

When Ishizu put a spell on Joseph to make him go to sleep, she whispered, "We'll find Arkana and bring your sister back to you, this I promise."

So while Joey was dreaming, he was dreaming that Serenity was home and that they were having a party, they had invited everyone, and they were having a great time.

Then something went horribly wrong, the room got black and Joseph was alone, his sister and the others disappeared, where did they go, why did his beautiful dream turn into a nightmare?

Both Shadi and Ishizu felt that something was wrong, Shadi then said, "Arkana has found a way to get inside the walls, he's trying to destroy Joseph's mind, and we've got to hurry before he does."

Shadi then said, "I've found the spell, we've got to get to where the Yami's are we only have a few minutes in order to bind Arkana before he realizes what we are up to."

Shadi used his magic to get them to where the Yami's are and then he said, "I will need all of you to help me with this spell."

Then he started chanting and Ishizu, Yami, Bakura and Marik all joined in, then they heard Arkana screaming, they knew that it was working, but were they in time to help save Serenity, or would her spirit be taken to the shadows?

In the Hospital:

While Serenity was in her dream world, she felt something happen and she looked at her grandmother and asked, "What's going on?"

The old woman said, "It seems that someone is trying to break through the defenses of the one who put you here."

Serenity then asked, "What will happen if they do?"

The old woman then said, "You'll waked up in the hospital and Joseph will be there waiting for you."

Serenity then asked, "And if they can't then what?" The old woman closed her eyes and said, "That's something I can't tell you."
