After Riley, Cassie, and Yuya had gotten home and Yuya laid down in his room Cassie frowned before picking up the phone.

"Cass?" Yoko asked her.

"Mommy... I'm calling big sis." Cassie told her before frowning. "I'm scared."

Yoko nodded at that. Cassie frowned as the phone rang while Riley frowned sitting at the table before sending a message to Declan asking if they could see him.

"Hello?" Zuzu asked.

"Big sis, I'm starting to get scared. He forgot another duel." Cassie frowned.

"Oh." Zuzu asked worried.

"You don't think there's something wrong with him do you?" Cassie asked fearfully. "He'll be ok right?"

"I'll be there." Zuzu told her.

"Thanks, that..." Cassie started before looking over to Riley. "Huh... oh actually can we meet at LDS?"

"Why not at your place?" Zuzu asked her.

"Riri thinks Declan might be able to help." Cassie explained.

"Okay... You, and her have fun before going down. You need it." Zuzu told her.

"I want big bro to be ok though." Cassie mentioned. "It happens whenever he Ritual Summons."

"You need to feel happy like what Uncle Yusho when talk to us." Zuzu assured her.

"... Ok." Cassie said sadly.

"It's okay Cass. I'll see you in a bit." Zuzu said to her.

Cassie just nodded before hanging up and looking down sadly. Riley just finished before hugging her from behind. Cassie turned and gently hugged her back with tears in her eyes.

"Come on Cass." Riley said heading up.

Cassie nodded following her. They arrived up stairs as Cassie looked down, "...Am I a bad sister?"

"Of course not." Riley reassured her. "Declan can help Yuya somehow."

Cassie nodded before smiling, "Big sis is right. Maybe some fun can help me."

Riley smiled hearing that. Cassie then grinned, "Of course you did say of doing the same to me when we get home."

Riley blushed but nodded. "Yeah... I did."

Cassie laid down before pulling up her shirt. Riley blushed at that before shifting as Cassie felt her tongue touch her stomach. Cassie giggled, "Riri that tickles!"

Riley giggled at that. "Really? What about this?"

She started licking Cassie's stomach just above her belly button. Cassie started laughing. Riley suddenly stopped. "Cassie?"

Cassie stopped laughing looking to her, "Yeah?"

Riley was blushing. "Is this... ok?"

"Of course." Cassie answered giggling.

Riley blushed at that before nodding. "Oh... where are the cotton swabs?"

Cassie pointed to a shelf. Riley nodded before walking over and grabbing one and gently trying to clean Cassie's belly button. Cassie giggled at this. A minute later Riley nodded before throwing it away and then licking inside Cassie's belly button.

"Ah! R-Riley!" Cassie squealed in shock before laughing.

Riley smiled before continuing. Cassie continued laughing before saying, "R-Riley!"

Riley stopped. "Yeah?"

Cassie had time to catch her breath before grinning, "What got you so brave like that?"

Riley blushed. "I wanted to cheer you up... and when you started laughing it made me happy so I kept going."

"You know that actually put an idea to my head." Cassie grinned.

"An idea?" Riley asked.

Just then Cassie pushed Riley down to the bed, and pulled her shirt up.

"Ack!" Riley cried out. "Cass?"

She felt Cassie's mouth on her belly button. Riley started giggling at that. She then felt what seems like sucking. Riley's eyes widened at that. While Cassie is doing that she is also licking inside Riley's belly button. Riley started laughing even more. After several moments Cassie pulled back grinning. Riley took a few minutes to catch her breath.

"That idea was cute wasn't it?" Cassie giggled.

Riley was blushing but she nodded.

"You made me had that thought. Be sure to be expecting more." Cassie grinned slowly tracing Riley's belly button lovingly.

Riley blushed at that. "What do you mean more?"

"I think you know." Cassie giggled before kissing her fully on her lips.

Riley's eyes widened before kissing her back. Cassie soon giggled. Riley was blushing before suddenly wincing badly. Seeing that Cassie instantly grow concerned. Riley looked to be in a lot of pain.

"Riri?" Cassie asked her.

"My... back." Riley grunted before wincing again.

Cassie turned her over, and carefully looked passed the bandages. Blood was soaking through and it looked like it was getting worse.

"How is it...?" Cassie said in shock, "Alright I'm getting a doctor!"

That's when her eyes widened. During her match with Nagi she heard Riley cry out but she also heard another sound... a crack. She ran downstairs at that.

"Cassie?" Yoko asked noticing.

"I gotta get a doctor!" Cassie said grabbing the phone.

Yoko just stared in shock before frowning. Cassie called the hospital while waiting.

"Hello, Paradise City Hospital how may I help you?" asked a young man.

"My girl she needs help!" Cassie said to him.

"Your girl? Can she come in?" the man asked.

"No I think... I think her back is broken!" Cassie said with tears.

"Cass... I'm ok." Riley said from the door into the room. "I promise."

"Your not... Your back is getting worse." Cassie said tearing up.

Riley frowned seeing that before walking over and hugging her before whispering so the doctor couldn't hear. "I have to be ok... so I can stay with you when... when we go to fight."

Cassie dropped the phone hugging her back crying. Riley frowned before just kissing her again as Yoko picked up the phone and walked into the other room.

"Riri." Cassie cried.

Riley just held her gently. "It's ok."

Cassie continued crying. Riley frowned at that before blushing and pulling Cassie's shirt up to kiss her stomach. That simple act seemed to start to calm Cassie. Riley smiled at that before quickly kissing her belly button and looking up at her. Cassie soon had a smile with tears starting to lessen.

"That's better." Riley smiled.

"Thanks... Riri." Cassie smiled wiping her eyes.

Riley smiled kissing her close before pausing. "Should we go see Declan with Zuzu so we can help Yuya?"

"I should... Renew the bandages just in case." Cassie told her.

"Ok." Riley nodded.

With that after Cassie got some new ones, and removed Riley's shirt sprayed her back with something, and wrapped bandages around her body. Riley winced slightly but made sure to reassure Cassie she was ok. Cassie soon finished putting her shirt back on.

"Thanks." Riley smiled warmly.

Cassie smiled back before they walked off to LID. On the way them met up with Zuzu.

"Big sis!" Cassie called.

"Cassie, is everything alright?" Zuzu asked running over to her.

"I'm fine." Cassie answered, "You were right to have fun, and me, and Riri got to try something new."

Zuzu smiled hearing that. "That's a good thing."

"You, and big bro should try it sometime it's really fun, and really tickling." Cassie smiled.

"A tickle fight?" Zuzu asked as they reached LID.

"Nope." Cassie chuckled before motioning for Zuzu to kneel, and whispered it in her ear.

Zuzu's eyes widened. "You two are... acting a little mature aren't you?"

"In our own way. You, and big bro should try it!" Cassie giggled linking her arms with Riley's left arm.

Zuzu blushed as they walked in. "Yeah... I'll think about it."

They arrived where Declan is at.

"What exactly is going on with Yuya?" Declan asked them.

"I don't know... Each time he gets real mad, he Ritual Summons, and doesn't remember the match." Cassie answered.

Declan frowned hearing that. "Doesn't remember? That's definitely strange, and it's only when he Ritual Summons?"

"Yeah." Cassie answered.

"That... wait a second. Is it possible?" Declan inquired before looking at something on a computer. "Cassie, do you remember anything about your match with Yuri?"

"Well... He had fought a hard battle with this Starving Venom Fusion Dragon." Cassie admitted.

Declan's eyes widened at that before he closed his eyes. "Cassie... can you defeat your brother in a duel?"

"I don't know..." Cassie said to him, "Last time I tried we stopped when he said he couldn't remember one of the Ritual Monsters being in his deck."

"... For his safety, you have to defeat him... and prevent him from qualifying for the Arc-League Championship." Declan told her. "Whatever's going on, I have a strong feeling it'll get worse if he competes and if joins the fight against Duel Academy."

That made Cassie's eyes widen in horror, "I... I can't do that... That would crush him."

"I'm aware of that, but if my suspicions are correct it may be the only way for you to save his life." Declan told her.

Cassie looked down at that not sure what to do.

"I know it's hard, but it's for the best and there's always next year." Declan told her.

"...One thing Declan." Cassie told him.

"Yes?" Declan asked her.

"Next time something like this happens, I won't try to beat him again." Cassie told him, "I can't bear crushing him more then once."

"I understand completely." Declan nodded. "Doing it once is hard enough... but if we're lucky, Yusho will be back to watch him compete next year."

Cassie only nodded before turning to walk out. Riley stopped her with a hug. "Are you ok?"

Cassie was only looking down. Riley frowned seeing that before just hugging her closer.
