Seto was understandably wary when he stepped out of his helicopter and onto the grounds of Duellist Kingdom. The last time he had been here had not been a pleasant experience and when his little brother had informed him that this was a trap, he hadn't been surprised. The who had been a shock, but not the trap itself.

Having already phoned his teacher in Shadow Magic, he already knew the Millennium Rod was useless if the enemy activated their own spells. However he felt better knowing that his Millennium item was at his side, if only because it meant he knew where it was and that it wouldn't be turned against him.

Mokuba followed him without a word as he entered the castle. The younger Kaiba brother wasn't convinced that coming was a good idea. Even with the powers of a Millennium item on their side and the Pokémon he had borrowed from Cassandra, he wasn't sure. Still, the company was under threat and nothing he could say or do would prevent his brother walking into this.

'Pegasus' was waiting for them in the entrance way, smiling cheerfully with that vindictive hint that only a gamer would pick up on, just as he had when he'd sealed both of their souls away. "Ah, Kaiba-bo..."

"You can drop the act." Seto glowered at the man before them, "I know you're not Pegasus. You're not annoying enough for a start."

"Really?" The fake Pegasus sounded disappointed, "But I tried so hard to get it just right. Oh well..." With that he took a step back and Mokuba let out a startled yelp as the floor vanished beneath him.

"Mokuba!" Kaiba lunged for his little brother, trying to grab his arm as he fell but missed. The younger Kaiba brother slid down the pipe, cussing hidden passageways as he shot out of the end of the pipe and tumbled onto the floor.

"Ow." Mokuba complained as he sat up and looked around, grimacing as he realised where he was. "Oh great." He complained as he took in the cold, damp stone walls, the almost negligible lighting and the iron bars blocking his exit from the stone walled cell. He took a moment to test the cell door, sighing when he realised it was locked, then pulled out his lock picks. "I knew I bribed Bakura into giving me lessons for a reason."

Sending out Houndoom to cover him while he worked, the younger Kaiba brother worked swiftly, managing to spring the lock in less than a minute. The moment he stepped outside his cell, however, a huge, grey, stone skinned arm swung at him out of nowhere.

Mokuba went crashing into the wall at the back of the cell and Houndoom launched itself at the attacker, a huge grey vaguely rhino looking Pokémon, with a drill on its nose, glowing green eyes and a strange green symbol on its forehead.

The rhino-like thing just shook off the huge canine that had tried to latch onto its arm with its teeth and let out what sounded like an amused laugh of a roar.

Houndoom glanced over its shoulder to find its Trainer was collapsed in a heap at the bottom of the wall, which had dented upon impact. The angry snarl the huge black demonic canine loosed echoed off of the walls but didn't seem to faze the huge two legged creature, who merely jabbed at the black dog with its huge fist.

Houndoom evaded easily, growling for just a moment before launching a stream of flames that lit up the area and made the area uncomfortably hot. The rhino-like thing let out a surprised bellow before it was engulfed in the flames, but when the attack died down just seemed to dust itself off, still laughing at the Pokémon it was fighting.

The Dark Pokémon let out a furious, frightening roar. The rhino's response was to stamp one of its huge feet. The entire underground system shook in response, some of the ceiling falling down as it did so. Mokuba let out a soft groan as the shaking died down but the sounds of things giving way continued, the Earthquake attack having shaken some of the castle loose.

Not willing to turn his back on his opponent, Houndoom was glad to hear his Trainer beginning to come around, but had little to no idea of how to beat the huge tank of a Pokémon which seemed immune to all of his attacks.

"Ho...Houndoom, return." Mokuba coughed as he pushed himself upright slowly, pain obvious on his features, his voice weak and wavering, "Ali, go!"

Recalling Houndoom from the field and tossing the ball Cassie had lent him, he watched as a huge, yellow and brown, vaguely humanoid creature with a vulpine head and holding two spoons, one of which was twisted, appeared.

"My Trainer asked that I protect you." The creature, an Alakazam if Mokuba was remembering Cassandra's explanation properly, informed the boy telepathically before blasting the rhino creature down the hallway with a wave of Psybeam, "This Rhydon will fall."

The Rhydon in question roared angrily and the stomping of his feet accompanied a second wave of shaking. Ali's eyes glowed and an invisible shield formed over Mokuba, protecting him from the continued disintegration of the ceiling. A whirling sound and the sounds of something smashing caught the pair's attention.

A whirling maelstrom of noise and stone and living rock smashed through the wall and crashed into Ali. The high level psychic type Pokémon was sent flying, smashing through the thin wall between cells and crashing to the ground on the other side.

Bellowing its victory, Rhydon turned towards Mokuba again. The younger Kaiba flinched as the huge Drill Pokémon roared at him, rushing forwards and drawing its arm back to hit him again, closing his eyes and throwing up his arms in a desperate attempt at self defence.

When the blow didn't land, Mokuba's eyes shot open, only to find a pissed off Ali was levitating the Rhydon in midair with some kind of lemon coloured light.

"I don't think so." The Alakazam scolded the Rhydon, still glowing slightly with the light of a Recover. Then Ali launched the other Pokémon back down the corridor using Psychic and followed it up with a Psybeam that sent the creature tumbling into the darkness. Then and only then did the Alakazam turn back to Mokuba, "Now, to get you..."

"Seto's up there." Mokuba pointed upwards, pushing past the pain in his concern for his brother, "Take me to him. Please. He might need our help."

"No. You need to..." Ali's eyes snapped towards where the Rhydon had flown to. A booming roar and stomping feet heralded another Earthquake. The ceilings gave way completely and Oracle's Alakazam had just enough time to grab Mokuba and teleport away before the entire dungeon collapsed.

"Are we sure that's not the Yugi of the Pokémon World?" Tristan asked as he and Tea watched Yugi's new friend, Mew, bat a ball around with a couple of other Pokémon.

"I'm still trying to work out if that ball's reinforced." Tea replied, watching one of the water Pokémon in the group blast the ball away with a Water Gun attack, only for an electric type to knock it away with a jolt of electricity. "Because I'm not sure any normal beach ball would stand up to that."

"Whatever, I'm not complaining." Joey shrugged, enjoying the last couple of minutes of his break, "It's nice to see Yugi playing again."

The others couldn't deny this. Though the Pokémon were being careful with him, they had encouraged Yugi to join in their game. He seemed more relaxed than he had been since awakening and while he seemed oblivious to the protectiveness of his playmates, he was having fun.

"He's been getting better since he solved the Puzzle." Tea commented, watching Yugi carefully as he reached for the ball and tried to hide a wince as he knocked it towards a young Turtwig. "I think Yami's helping."

"Probably." Joey allowed, nodding slightly. He'd noticed it too, the way that Yugi had been steadily getting better ever since he had solved the Puzzle. "Crap, I have to go back on duty." He darted off to go and clock back in, leaving Tristan and Tea to hover around and wait for Yugi to finish with his game.

"I've been thinking." Tea said, as she leaned against the bench, playing with the pokéball that Yugi had been given for Mew but left with his friends for the time being, "I'm going to adopt Enmai."

"Enmai?" Tristan asked, confusion obvious on his features for a moment until he realised Tea was pointing at a small, green haired and skinned Pokémon who looked like it was wearing a white dress, two red hair clips and was as graceful as Tea looked when she was dancing. "What is she?"

"A Kirlia." Tea explained, smiling gently, "She's a psychic type. She loves dancing and she's a powerhouse too."

"You've already nicknamed her?" Tristan asked, wondering if he should get himself a Pokémon too considering the trouble that his friends got into.

"I was talking to her the other day." Tea shrugged, "And she seemed to accept. I was going to put an application in the day Yugi got attacked and well..."

Tristan nodded his understanding. Everything had gone on hold while Yugi had been in a coma, at least in their lives. School had seemed about the only thing keeping them on going for a while. That and the need to help Grandpa run the shop while his grandson was hurt. "So you're putting it in now, at the same time as Yugi's?" He asked curiously.

"Myuu was Yugi's catch. It was never in the Day Care register, so he doesn't have to apply to keep it." Tea shook her head, "But I've put mine in now."

"Yugi!" Before any of Yugi's friends could react a small blonde girl with her hair in pigtails, blue eyes and sharp half moon glasses, attempted to glomp Yugi only to get cut off by Mew and a couple of the other Pokémon. "Hey!"

"Rebecca!?" Yugi yelped, glad for the Pokémon shielding him from the excitable, opinionated American girl.

"Hi!" Rebecca grinned at him, glancing warily at the Pokémon for a second before edging through the group only to get smacked by the beach ball that the Pokémon had been batting around. "Ow!" She batted it away, only for the Pokémon who had still been playing to decide she wanted to join in and include her in the game.

"Hey." Yugi was confused as Myuu, the tiny pink floating feline he had rescued the night before, swirled around him, glowering at the girl. "What're you doing here?"

"Your grandpa phoned mine." Rebecca explained as she tried to work out how a beach ball was surviving being knocked away by a burst of flames and yet was cool to the touch when she knocked it away again, "And he wants to talk to you."

"Sure." Yugi nodded, "Just let me..." Everyone jumped as the subtle pink aura that had been covering and protecting the beachball vanished and the next attack to hit it caused it to pop with a loud bang. "Huh, guess the game's over."

"So you're going to come now?" Rebecca asked rather urgently.

"What's wrong?" Yugi caught it, concern catching up to him.

"We've had a bit of trouble. From the guys who are after you." She admitted, "So we're only here for a couple of days. We fly back this evening to make sure... it doesn't matter."

"Can I help?" Yugi asked, worried.

"No." Rebecca shook her head, "Not from Japan. Thanks though."

"Come on." Yugi darted towards his friends, Myuu breaking away from the group first, with Okibi and Bast close behind. "We'll go now."

"Yuge?" Joey called over as he paused in feeding the bird Pokémon, concerned by the sudden swift movement away from his playmates.

"We're going to visit the museum." Yugi told him as he recalled his Vulpix and Persian and clipped Myuu's pokéball to his belt, "See you later."

"Be careful." Joey grimaced, still wary of letting his friends wander around without his protection after the fiasco at the school.

"I will be."

"You'd have thought they would have picked a better moment to need some 'alone time'." Valon complained to Mai as the pair of them waited to be allowed back into Jamie's room.

Mai didn't reply. Ever since her game against Marik, she'd been able to pick up on when the Shadows were flowing and she could feel the Shadows in motion in Jamie's room. She knew full damn well that Jamie and Bakura weren't up to what Valon thought they were.

With that in mind she didn't dare interrupt, nor could she let Valon. Once a Shadow Game was in motion, anyone who interfered could get hurt. Yugi and Joey were proof of that little fact.

"Oh don't give me the silent treatment." Valon sulked, "We were getting on fine before."

"Yeah, before I knew you were working with the bad guys. You know, the ones who want to steal my soul, and the souls of my friends?" Mai scowled at him.

"I'm just about fired from that little club thanks to you and your friends." Valon snorted, "If I don't go back with you in tow or having taken your souls, I'll be for the chop."

"Well we're not duelling you." Mai grimaced.

"Even if I was going to, I'm not allowed to challenge you lot anyway." Valon retorted, frustrated, "Your friend Bakura made sure of that."

"Good." Mai shot back with a small smirk. Having found out about Valon's lies, she didn't trust the man in the slightest. Knowing there was a Penalty in place to stop him from challenging them to a Duel and taking their souls actually helped her relax. She hadn't forgotten, after all, how the Duellist in the village by the Windworks had trapped her in the Seal without warning.

The Shadows within the room faded away and Mai got to her feet, ignoring Valon's confused look as she knocked on the door.

"You said not to disturb them." Valon pointed out, confused.

"It's fine now." Mai shrugged, grinning slightly when she heard Jamie's voice call.

"Come in." Considering she had just been in a Shadow Game, Jamie sounded surprisingly chipper. Mai entered the room to find Bakura looked tired but pleased with himself, while Jamie seemed more at ease with herself than she had been in months.

"Everything okay, Jay?" Mai asked, watching the girl carefully.

"Excellent." Jamie nodded, "Are we read..." Jamie trailed off as Valon's phone rang.

"Valon speaking." The biker picked it up, his Australian accent coming through rather thick as he spoke, "Yeah, yeah. Oh?" He asked the person on the other end of the line, "Lizabet?" Jamie turned to watch him closely at the sound of her sister's name. "That's the girl who stole the God Cards for us, right? No, you don't need to send her. I can get this sorted. You have my word." Jamie let out a soft hiss, "I'll report in when I have more news. Just don't send Lizabet, she'd probably turn against us. Alright, alright... yeah okay, bye."

"Lizabet?" Jamie growled at him, "My sister, Lizabet? You're the ones who turned her against Yugi and turned her to stealing?"

"Yeah, your sister's in America at the moment." Valon nodded. "Working with us."

Mai noticed that Jamie's eyes had flashed from icy blue to their darker midnight blue hue as she snarled, "You had no right!"

"No right to do what? Bring her in when she was lost and confused in a world completely different to her own?" Valon snapped back, sick of the attitude, "What should we have done? Left her to starve in the middle of some woods somewhere? To get caught again? Or to end up being bait for you?"

"I should... get off of me." Dragon snarled at Bakura, anger obvious in her features.

"Getting angry now won't help. Wait until you have a useful target in front of you. Then use every bit of anger you've built up." Bakura recommended, "That's how I manage it."

"They tainted my sister." Dragon snapped.

"I know." Bakura retorted, still keeping a firm grip on her, "But if you deal with him now he can't guide you to your sister later."

"We need to get to Domino first." Dragon grimaced, "I need my team."

"What about Joey?" Mai asked, worried that Jamie was getting tunnel vision.

"Wheeler?" Valon was curious, "What about him?"

"None of your Arceus damned business!" Dragon snarled at him, "You don't need to know all our secrets."

"Even if I swear to take you to your sister?" Valon offered, "No questions asked, no attempts at converting you to our side, or trying to steal your soul."

Dragon hesitated. For her world to stay safe, she needed the secret to stay secret, but her sister was and would always be more important.

"I wouldn't take too long to decide, if I were you," Valon smirked at her. "Since we know who she is, you understand we can't exactly trust her... so she's paired up with our other new member, and that bug user is one cold-blooded witch."

"She's brave, and..." Lizbet sighed, looking down, "she saved me once, and gave me Tide..."

Miko sipped her tea, listening.

"But she's also foolish, and takes too much on herself..." the younger girl finished, worriedly. "She's probably alone out there, trying to get by..."

"I wouldn't worry about your sister..." Miko murmured, the light glinting softly off her glasses. "She's found some strong allies. I fought her, after all, when I was with Team-" She cut herself off to sneeze delicately into a hankie. "Uh, someone must be talking about me..."

LINE_RECOGNITION_HAS_GONE_AGAIN

"Yugi, this is my grandpa." Rebecca would have latched herself onto Yugi's arm on the way to the museum, but Myuu was having none of it and kept shooing her away, much to Tea's amusement. "Grandpa, this is..."

"I know who Yugi is, dear." Professor Hawkins tutted at his granddaughter. "The hair is unmistakeable after all."

"You wanted to talk to me Professor?" Yugi asked, trying to get Myuu to settle down when all she seemed to want to do was keep Yugi as far away from Rebecca as possible.

"Yes." Professor Hawkins nodded, glancing at the tablets that were in the display case. Yugi cringed slightly when he realised they were stood by the tablets of the Pharaoh, which he hadn't shown his friends yet.

"Is that you, Yugi?" Tristan asked, staring at the tablets.

"No." Yugi shook his head, "It's Yami from five thousand years ago."

"These tablets confirm my theories," The Professor grinned as Yugi confirmed it further, "You have a bond with a Pharaoh from five thousand years ago."

"No offence, Professor, but I already knew that." Yugi sighed.

"Sorry, sorry, but you have to understand this validates decades of research. You see back in Egypt the game of Duel Monsters wasn't played using cards but with giant stone tablets with monsters sealed in them."

"But the magic went nuts and Yami," Yugi's hand went to his Puzzle, "Sealed them away and sealed himself at the same time." He was, unfortunately, too sore for a recap of what Ishizu had told him before Battle City, even if Professor Hawkins was as excitable as a child in a candy shop. "I know that too."

"What if I told you I had found carvings from what I believe to be the lost city of Atlantis?" The Professor asked, "And they were Duel Monsters too, see?" He handed over a stack of photos. They were of Duel Monster like carvings, with the top most one looking like a Red Eyes Black Dragon. "So the game originated not five thousand years ago, but ten."

"That I didn't know." Yugi blinked, examining the photos carefully.

"I believe that you're the one who can save our world from the monsters attacking it." Professor Hawkins informed Yugi, "Just as you did five thousand years ago."

'And now he really sounds like Ishizu.' Yami grumbled over the link, causing Yugi to have to turn a laugh into a politely confused look.

"I have a question." Tristan piped up, remembering what he had been told this morning, "How does any of this relate to the giant bluey green dragon Yugi summoned last night?"

"Giant blue-green dragon?" Professor Hawkins asked Yugi, who frowned slightly.

"He was one of the Knights who were fighting against the Seal ten thousand years ago. But he got turned into a dragon and sealed in crystal till I let him out." Yugi explained, "His name is Timaeus."

"Can I see it?" If anything the Professor just looked even more excited.

"I'm not summoning him in the museum." Yugi protested, "But..." He drew the card out of his deck without looking, ignoring Tristan's comment about having no idea how he did that, and let the Professor look. However when the man went to snatch it away to examine it properly, past experience made Yugi back off slightly.

"But... hey!" The Professor backed up when Myuu started scolding him, waving its paw and chattering at him angrily. "I just wanted to look."

"Sorry Professor, but I don't let go of my rare cards anymore." Yugi apologised, "And I don't think I can get much rarer than this. It appeared in my deck after I freed Timaeus."

"I don't have all my notes here, but if I come across Timaeus in my research, I'll let you know." Professor Hawkins promised, "In the mean time be careful. The Atlantian group aren't the only group causing trouble. But you knew that already, didn't you?"

Considering they had put him in the hospital for almost two months, yes, Yugi was fully aware of them. He just nodded however, not wanting to go into details.

"I'll call you the moment I have any more information." The professor looked at him for a moment, "And if there's anything you'd like to share..." He encouraged, hoping Yugi would share something about the Puzzle or what he apparently knew.

Since Marik had died before he could share the secrets to the Pharaoh's name, memories and powers with them, Yugi didn't really have much more to say. At least not while his mind had gone blank on the subject due to trying to work out how the legendary city of Atlantis had gotten involved in this. It seemed a throw away piece of information rather than anything useful for the time being.

"If I think of anything, I'll tell you." Yugi promised the Professor, rather sore tired and just wanting to collapse on the sofa for a couple of hours instead of continue a conversation that didn't seem to be getting anywhere.

Suddenly Myuu darted over to Rebecca, taking advantage of the fact the girl was distracted with the giant stone tablets and snatched something out of her pocket.

"Hey! Give that back!" Rebecca protested, snatching for the glowing green gem stone, only for Myuu to float out of reach, toss the green gem into the air and blast it with a ball of psychic energy causing it to disintegrate into dust. "That's not fair! I found that when I was looking for Yugi!"

"I've seen stones like that before." Yugi grimaced, "The eye sent them flying everywhere when we blasted it."

"I recognise it too." The Professor complained, "There were stones like it in the Atlantian ruins. I would have liked to run some tests on it." Myuu didn't bother even pretending to look sheepish. Instead the tiny pink feline just floated over to Yugi and settled on his shoulder, looking rather proud of herself. "If you see any more around, would you please send it my way?"

"Sure Professor." Yugi agreed, wondering what the stone had done to Myuu to deserve being disintegrated, "Are you going to be alright? Rebecca told me you've been having trouble too."

"We'll be fine, Yugi." The professor reassured him, "It's not like anyone's going to burn our house down over some research on a long dead civilisation. You just keep yourself safe and we'll worry about us."

Seto was pissed off.

It wasn't enough that this freak, Alister, had threatened his company. Or that he had split him and his little brother up upon their arrival at the castle. Or that he had been forced into a Duel to save his soul. No, what had finally torn Seto's patience into tiny little shreds was the fact that his brother had reappeared in a burst of light, being half carried by a Pokémon, looked like he was in pain and was coated in building dust. The latter most likely being from the various earthquakes that had been shaking the island.

And what galled him even more was that he was losing. He didn't lose. Not to anyone that wasn't a Yugi. Not since before he'd been adopted. And yet here he was, staring down some pyro monster that by itself wasn't a threat and not one but twoof his precious Blue Eyes White Dragons. All three monsters had been corrupted by the power he could feel flowing within the green seal below his feet and Seto could not think of a way out of this.

He had already used his best moves to destroy the cards the loon had stolen from Pegasus and get those two Blue Eyes out on the field. He now did not have a way of destroying those same dragons. Not with a field that was practically empty, save for his Crush Card Virus, which he had drawn last turn but not had an opportunity to use.

"You've already lost, Kaiba!" Alister was gloating, something that just served to piss off Seto even further, "Now you'll suffer the way I did at the hands of your father."

Because having your soul ripped out and fed to some 'leviathan' was completely the same as losing your family to a war. That made perfect sense. Not. The man was a loon, and it got worse. Having spent the entire time gloating that 'Kaiba finally understood was it was like to fail his little brother' especially after the earthquakes had started, Alister had been disappointed to see Mokuba reappear seemingly injured but in possession of his soul. More than anything else, that was what had Seto wanting to teach the upstart a lesson. No one messed with his little brother and got away with it.

He just needed a way to turn the duel around.

"Kaiba." Seto tried to avoid tensing up as a woman's voice echoed in his head, "Kaiba!"

Light flared behind his eyes for a moment and he had to close them against the brightness. When he opened them again, he wasn't in Pegasus's castle anymore. Instead he was in what looked like some Grecian temple, but older. Two giant dragon statues made of crystal stood before him, while a third podium, which looked like it had once held a dragon stood empty.

"Kaiba!" The voice was no longer in his head and he looked around for the speaker, only to find there was none, "Pull the sword from the dragon and you can win."

"Whatever it takes to get me out of this fantasy." Kaiba grumbled, following the instructions. The crystal shattered, revealing a huge black dragon. One that was bigger than and almost as impressive as his Blue Eyes White Dragons and then there was a bright light and he was back in the arena against Alister.

He drew, only for the card he had just drawn to be 'Fang of Critias.'

Kaiba smirked slightly as he realised that for once the magical cards of destiny seemed to be on his side, then turned his attention on his opponent.

Alister didn't stand a chance.

"Just be careful." Yugi frowned as he carefully walked up the stairs, leaning on the rails as he did so, speaking to whoever was on the other end of the telephone, "I don't know anything about these guys, except that their boss is Atlantian."

Joey was less concerned with the current group of soul stealers and more concerned with making sure his friend, who hadn't been resting as much as he should, didn't topple backwards and go tumbling down the stairs. He couldn't help but listen in though when Yami took over and snapped out, "Look, I know it was an inconvenience, but I really don't have any answers for you. Just because we're out of hospital doesn't mean we're at your beck and call and don't you dare have Yugi kidnapped off the street again."

Yugi snatched back control before Yami's temper could really snap. The Pharaoh had been losing his temper more and more since the God cards had been stolen. Yugi partially attributed it to the weeks Yami had been trapped back in the Shadows. However he couldn't help but wonder if it was something he had done that had caused Yami's mood.

He winced against the tone being emitted by the speaker of his phone, realising that he was caught between a rock and a hard place, and took great delight in being able to distract the person on the other end by saying, "Sorry I've got to go, I've got a package here from Industrial Illusions. Yes, bye." and putting down the phone.

It was only once he'd put the phone down that he realised what he said and went white, before swapping with Yami.

Joey, who had shot over to the other side of the room and started thinking about ways of destroying it without ever opening it, couldn't blame him.

Myuu floated over to it, confused as to why her Trainer had suddenly developed a great fear of what looked to the New Species Pokémon like a simple box. The little pink psychic cat, picked it up with its psychic powers and tried to give it to Yami. The Pharaoh hesitated for a moment before snatching it out of the air.

He had not forgotten what had happened the last time they had received a package from Pegasus. Neither had his friends, he noted as Tea and Tristan, who had followed them upstairs both gave the box he was carrying a wide berth.

"Pegasus doesn't have the Millennium Eye anymore." Yugi reminded him, the initial shock having worn off and curiosity beginning to creep in. "So he can't steal souls this time."

Yugi had a point, Yami allowed as he opened the box. There was, as expected, a video tape inside, along with a couple of cards and an envelope containing tickets for first class flights to San Francisco.

"Don't tell me you're gonna watch it." Joey complained as Yami shoved the tape in the tape player.

"Pegasus lost the eye after I beat him, remember?" Yami snapped back, his temper still up from his earlier discussion on the phone, "Besides, if you don't want to hear what he wants, leave now."

"No way man." Joey shook his head, settling on the couch and wondering what had gotten into the Pharaoh lately, "Even if he doesn't have any answers, I'm not letting you deal with that loon on your own."

"Well then," Yami pressed play and leant against the wall as the TV flickered and an image appeared on screen, "Let's see what he wants."
