Miya's POV

You were sitting in a large lobby filled with paintings of toon duel monsters. A moment later the office door opened, and a bleach blonde male stepped out. He looked around 20 or 21. He was Nathen Pegasus, your assignment.

"Mr. Pegasus, this is Maria Conwell. She's your new assistant."

You stood and shook his hand. He gave you a quick look over and gave you a charming smile.

"Talk about a good looking assistant to spend most of my time with."

"Now Mr. Pegasus. That talk is not appropriate for work."

He looked almost disappointed. This kid would be easier than worth the time. Lex could have sent in the worst of his female employees and they still could have completed this mission within a few hours.

"Sir, you have Mr. Kaiba on the phone. It's about your meeting on Saturday?"

"Oh yes. I'll be right there. Hang on just a moment Ms. Conwell."

Kaiba. Why did that name sound so familiar. Must have been a cadet that you trained some time ago. You shrugged and turned your attention to your Blackberry.

Seto's POV

"Hello?"

"Nathen, it's Kaiba."

"Oh Kaiba boy, what is it that brings you to call me?"

"It's about our meeting Saturday?"

"Yes?"

"I need to move it to an earlier time that day."

"Um, how about 9? I have a new assistant to train, so that's the earliest I can go."

"A new assistant?"

"Yes, her name is Maria Conwell. And truth be told, I didn't think my uncle had good taste in women, but he did a great job on this one."

"Alright. I shall see Saturday morning."

You hung up and Chris walked into the room wearing his I.I security uniform.

"What did he say?"

"He has a new assistant. Some Maria Conwell."

Chris shook his head and sighed.

"That "some" Maria Conwell, that's Miya's code name that Lex gave to her."

You felt a bit of hope knowing you would have Miya back soon.

"If Miya sees one of us on Saturday, and we get a chance, we'll get her out of there."

'That is unless.."

You stared at Chris.

"Unless what?"

Chris' POV

You had just remembered what Lex had once told you. They could brainwash people into forgetting their family, friends, even their own name.

"Lex could have had her brainwashed."

FF Saturday

Seto's POV

You had barely slept the entire week. Yugi and his gang of cheerleaders was always over at the manor trying to help in getting Miya back. Oddly enough, Yugi and Joey were helpful instead of annoying. You couldn't say the same about Tristan and Tea though. Tea kept rambling off friendship speeches.

The only thing on your mind today though, was getting Miya home. The fact that she could have been brainwashed would make it much for difficult. You had set up a microchip system to allow Chris and you to communicate. You arrived at the top floor of the I.I building and were greeted by Nathen and who you believed to be Maria Conwell. She looked nothing like Miya. Her skin as much paler. Her brown hair was now a deep black.

"Ah Seto Kaiba. Welcome. This is my new asst. Maria Conwell."

"It's an honor to meet you Mr. Kaiba. I've heard many good things about you." she then reached out and shook your hand.

"She's been brainwashed Kaiba."

You sighed. You knew this was going to be much more difficult that you anticipated.

"Let's go into my office and we can discuss your idea. Maria, can you go into the conference room and finish that paperwork for me?"

"yes sir."

Chris' POV

You had been working in the conference room. You heard the door open.

"Hello Maria."

She looked up at you and took a step back. "Who are you?"

You pulled a card out of your pocket and threw it to her.

"Give that to Lex."

Miya quickly disappeared. Apparently Lex was watching this too.

Lex's POV

You turned in your chair to face Miya as she handed you the card.

"Ha. That fool want to duel me. Well sorry to disappoint, but sorry Chris. Not this time."

"Your not going to duel him? Why not?"

You stood up and brought Miya into your arms. She had a special place in your heart, well what you had of one. She was the only female, and in a company full of males, it got very lonely. The idea of a female bed partner was looking very good at the moment.

During Miya's training, she had beaten all of the males in her company, well all but one. That one was Chris for she had refused to fight him.

"Hm Miya. You'll be dueling him. Not me. You're the better duelist and you'll have a greater chance at defeating him."

You had saved the memories Miya had of Chris' and Seto's decks. Chris' was perfect, while Seto's had a great number of blanks. Miya then bowed and went to prepare her deck.

Chris' POV

You snuck out of the building and met up with Kaiba in the parking lot.

"Did you get to talk to her?"

"No not really. She freaked out when she saw me, then boom. She vanishes."

"Lex is keeping an eye on her too."

"She just started like 3 days ago, so they're a little behind schedule. But judging on Nathen's behavior, it won't take nearly as long as they thought. But um, I challenged Lex to a duel."

When you guys arrived at the Manor, Ali flew at you.

"What did you guys find out?"

"Not a whole lot. She wasn't in the room during the meeting. Chris only got to speak with her momentarily before Lex took off with her again."

"So what's going on exactly?"

"Well Miya has been trained to seduce Nathen Pegasus and kill him."

"Who's Nathen Pegasus?"

"The owner of Industrial Illusions."

"Oh. What's Industrial Illusions."

"Never mind Ali. Just smile and nod."

"So your going to duel him?"

"If he excepts. Which deck should I use? I'm sure Lex had that part of Miya's memory saved. And she knew my deck inside and out."

"We can use mine."

Aaron walked in clutching Miya's locket with his own around his neck.

"Why don't you guys combine decks and just split them between the two of you and see if Lex will let you team duel."

"Good idea Aaron. Now question is. Will she use Lex's or her own deck?"

"I've never heard of Lex dueling, so I'm guessing she'll use hers."

"Chris, problem with that."

"How so Ali?"

"Miya had 3 different decks."

The room went silent. No one was sure on how to create a deck that would defeat Miya or Lex or both if they decided to the team duel.

You and Kaiba ended up spending most of the next few days attempting to work out a close to fool proof deck strategy. Thanks to both of you having hard heads and a very stubborn attitude, you ended up with your original decks.

FF Duel Day

Seto's POV

Since the day you spoke with Nathen, Lex had accepted the duel offer. He had sent coordinates for you to meet at. Aaron and Mokuba insisted on going with, no matter what you said. Aaron especially. He wanted to be there. You couldn't blame him, this was his only sister.

You and Chris arrived at the dueling platform that Lex had set up. You stood ready, and watched as the helicopter landed a few feet away.

Lex was the first to step out, followed by another male. Last was Miya. She had gone back to her brown hair. But instead of her normal attire, she was dressed in a very tight fitting, very short black skirt. Not to mention her top was a tight white tank top.

Lex took her hand and they walked toward you. You could have ran over and killed Lex on the spot for even touching Miya, let alone acting as if they were a couple.

"Ready boys?" Lex said with a smile.

"Who's dueling me Lex?" Chris said loudly over the noise of the helicopter.

"Both of you are. You will be partners against Miya and Taylor."

You saw Chris go pale. Aaron had been right. You should have created team worthy decks.

Taylor and Miya took their spots directly across from you.

"Duel!"

(S:4000, C:4000, T:40000, M:4000)

Taylor was the first to make a move.

"I place one card face down and play a monster in defense mode."

Miya was next to go.

"I summon Gemini Elf in attack mode. (1900/900). I finish with two cards face down."

You looked over at Chris. He was the foundation for your side of the duel. He was pale and shaking. Apparently he had really bad nerves when it came to dueling his old friend.

"I summon Breaker the Magical Warrior!(1600/1000). I also activate the magic card Mage's Power. This increases spell caster monsters by 1000 points.

(Breaker: 2600)

He ended his turn and nodded to you.

"I summon Lord of dragons! (1200/800)

Taylor's POV

Kaiba had just summoned his Lord of Dragons, just as you had thought. He wanted to summon his infamous Blue Eyes.

"I play Pot of Greed. Now I activate Flute of Dragon, allowing me to summon two dragons from my hand."

Two of his three Blue Eyes appeared on the field. (3000/2500)

Thanks to Lex's idea of implanting devices into your gear, you were able to read Miya's mind and her cards. Kaiba ended his turn by placing a card face down.

"My move!" you drew a card. It was your Celestial Angel. Perfect.

"I call upon Celestial Angel! (1800/1200). I then sacrifice my Aztec Statue to activate my spell card "Magic Wind Tunnel. This card destroys all magic and trap cards on your side of the field, plus all the ones you draw for the next four turns."

Miya's POV

Taylor had be able to summon his Angel. With the cards in your hand, you had the perfect strategy to control both Taylor's angel, plus Kaiba's Blue Eyes.

"Gemini Elf, attack his Lord!"

Seto:3300

"Now I play, Dragon Capture! At the cost of 1200 life points your dragons are now mine."

Miya:2800

"No! My dragons!"

"I end."

Chris' POV

With all your magic and trap cards destroyed plus gone for the next 4 turns, most of your monsters would be weak and useless.

'I sacrifice Breaker to summon Dark Magician Girl! (2000/1700) Now Dark magician girl, attack Taylor's Angel!"

Miya activated one of her trap cards. It was Attack Guidance Armor. She looked over at Kaiba. The armor attached itself to him. Your DMG had just wiped out a huge chunk of your partners life points. Kaiba was now down to 1300. That's when you noticed your life points had dropped as well.

"Why did I loose life points?"

"When my angel is attacked, half the attacking monsters points are deducted from your life points."

Now you were down to 3000.

Seto placed a card in defense mode and ended his turn.

Taylor's POV

Thanks to your Angel's second ability, she gained 500 points for every spell card in your hand. Right now you had 4. (Angel: 3800)

"Attack his dark Magician Girl!"

Chris: 1200

"I end."

"My move. I summon Dragon Charmer. This monster allows me to take control of Seto's dragons and attack with them at the cost of 200 life points per attack."

Chris and Kaiba stared in terror as both Blue Eyes appeared on Miya's side of the field, and in her control.

"Now my blue eyes. Attack Chris' life points directly and destroy Seto's face down monster!"

Chris hit 0 and was removed from the duel by a great blast.

Seto's POV

You drew brain control. This was just the card you need to turn this duel around. It was now two against one, and they both had powerful monsters. Taylor's would be easier to defeat.

" I activate Brain Control and choose one of the Blue Eyes!"

Seto:600

"Blue eyes, attack his Celestial Angel!"

Since the effect of his monster had worn off, it was back down to it's original 1800 attack points.

Taylor:1200

"I end with this card face down."

You were hoping this would work. You only had 600 life points left. Miya had 2400 and Taylor was at 2800.

"I place this card in defense mode."

Miya looked empty, and didn't make her move at first.
