A light drizzle of rain scattered and dampened the ground and surrounding buildings below them. The clouds darkened the skies of Alexandria rather quickly appearing to become the evening time sooner than it should have been. The weather seemed to have mirrored the current atmosphere at hand, and if it kept the same exact pattern, it was only going to get worse.

Tea crouched naked behind Yugi, who still had his pants down and his member limp sitting on his thigh. Semen dripped down his legs to his ankle and stopped at his foot and it felt disgusting. He felt nasty all over. He could even smell the remnants of sex in the air and it made him feel nauseous. He'd never felt this way after he made love to Yami. In fact, it was quite opposite. It reminded Yugi of why he swore off girls in the first place.

He heard Tea breathing heavily behind him and felt the knife at his throat, still. The way she was inhaling made Yugi's skin crawl, because she was still out of breath from what she'd just did. Not to mention she was probably embarrassed from having no clothes on.

Everyone that was in the first black truck was standing in the entryway: Yami, Joey, Jaden, Tristan, Kaiba and Mokuba. Kaiba told Yami to keep Tea on the phone to track where they were. It was amazing how technologically sound the guy was, and he had no connection to law enforcement, as far as anyone knew. Or maybe he did and preferred not to speak on it.

Atemu and his crew decided to stay in the second truck in case something else popped off. Yami and his entourage seemed to have everything under control. But in his line of business, he knew how crazy people could get, whether or not they were a fan.

The place was dark and uncomfortably warm. The air felt almost damp, as if it rained inside or something. Yami looked to the far opposite end of the abandoned building and saw a long row of rusty windows on the other side. Most of them looked broken into or damaged in some other way. He felt queasy knowing that this was where Yugi was being held all this time, and he could barely look at the compromising position he was in now. Tied up and gagged, it made Yami sick with disgust, anger filling him to the brim. But yet he didn't know what to do. There was no plan or course of action. Just . . . find Yugi. But now that they did, how in the world were they going to get him away from Tea?

And who knew that she was this crazy? Traveling all this time to take Yugi away like this when she was supposed to be his best friend? Why? There had to be some kind of connection.

"So….so you've been behind this the whole time?" Joey demanded softly, almost in disbelief. "Who would've thought…."

He couldn't wrap his head around why she would consciously betray Yugi—and everyone else like this unless there was something she wasn't telling them.

"Stay out of this," Tea snarled in response. "This doesn't concern any of you."

"The hell it doesn't!" Yami snapped before he could stop himself. He wasn't going to keep quiet anymore. "Why did you do this Tea? You have some explaining to do."

Yugi's stomach did flip flops once he heard Yami's reverberating voice. A voice that he thought he'd never hear again.

"No, I don't," Tea replied. "I don't have to answer to anyone, especially scum like you."

"Scum?" Tristan wailed. "Really? After the shit we've been through together, that's what you think of us?"

"Basically," the girl replied nonchalantly. "I mean why wouldn't I? I was always the forgotten one, the one left behind and ignored. Just because I was a girl? But yet you guys always called me your best friend. You sure didn't treat me like one though."

"That's because you always made a point to exclude yourself out of everything you twit!" Joey yelled. He felt his reserve slipping. He started to walk into the building, but Kaiba held out his arm to stop him.

"Yeah, because the idea of breaking into a nut house to rescue my suicidal friend and then escaping to Egypt sounded so damn appealing to me."

Everyone just paused when she said that. No way that Tea would know what they did unless someone told her. Yugi certainly didn't and neither did Tristan or Joey. They hadn't seen or spoken to Tea since before they snuck into the Kaiba Mansion to have that graduation party.

Joey didn't really think before walking inside the building towards Yugi and Tea. She saw him when she peeked around the corner and he looked scary and menacing from where she was squatting down. Joey picked up the pace, his heavy footsteps echoing and bouncing off the walls. Yugi's heart began to speed up, thumping in his chest cavity and ready to pop out like a hyperactive rabbit.

Joey only walked a few feet before something—or someone knocked him all the way to the ground, which then incited the rest of the people at the door, including Yami to run towards Joey. From outside, Atemu saw the group abruptly rush inside and he unlocked the door of the truck to follow suit just in case they need back up.

Bakura grabbed his wrist before he could exit.

"Atemu, where the hell are you going?"

"Are you dumb? Let me go!" Atemu responded with a growl, but Bakura only held onto him tighter.

"This is not our fight! We should not be here!" the snow haired bodyguard spat. "These kids apparently got themselves stuck in a situation that's entirely their fault. We need to wash our hands of this shit and leave!"

"Are you seriously that heartless?" Marik asked from behind, rolling his eyes. "Let my cousin go you tyrant."

"We're here aren't we?" said Seth, breaking into Atemu and Bakura's little sparring match. "Might as well do something besides sit here. And maybe we should call the police while we're at it."

"That's not a good idea," Atemu quickly replied before anyone else could.

"Because?" Seth asked.

"Because Yami is already due back in court, he doesn't need any extra charges filed on him."

"When did you become so soft?" Bakura scowled. "A few months ago, you wouldn't have given two donkey dicks about this shit."

"Yeah well…" Atemu's voice trailed off before his attention was on the truck's windshield and he saw a head full of black hair flowing in the wind before it disappeared inside. Must have been the younger Kaiba.

Atemu's eyes widened. Something must have happened. He exited the truck after freeing himself from Bakura's grasp. Everyone else passed over him and followed Atemu to the building, leaving the disgruntled man in the vehicle by himself except with the driver and he was no person of interest right now.

So while Bakura pouted and sat back in his seat crossing his arms, the rest of his team stalked toward the building. Atemu was first in line and he picked up the pace rather quickly the closer they got there. But once they approached the shutters, his foot almost got caught in between them as they came rushing down to the ground. Someone must have shut them once Yami and the others entered inside. Could this whole thing been planned?

Atemu jumped backwards into Marik's arms when the door was vehemently shut in front of him. He didn't want the heavy, rusty shit to fall and possibly cut his foot off. Atemu re-approached the garage door and tried lifting it from the bottom, but it wouldn't budge.

"There must be a lock inside," Marik muttered. "And not one outside."

Atemu raised an eyebrow as he was still crouched on the ground trying to open the door from the bottom. He glared up at his cousin, being blinded by the casual drops of rain in his face. Marik just offered him a casual shrug.

"I knew that," Atemu mumbled embarrassingly, brushing his sleeves off. "We need to get in there before it starts pouring."

Inside, despite the numerous windows on the far end, it had become relatively dark ever since the garage like doors were forced shut, mainly due to the grey clouds outside. Mokuba had been the last person inside the abandoned building after Joey had run in and the others followed. He quickly stood next to Kaiba, instinctively grabbing his big brother's arm out of habit. It was way too dark not to know here Kaiba was.

Joey was on the ground grimacing and clutching his stomach, groaning out loud to anyone who was in willing to hear him whine. He had taken a pretty hard blow to the stomach and then to the back when he hit the ground. Yugi heard his best friend screaming and felt totally helpless when he remembered that there was nothing he could do.

It was too dark to see. Everyone stood together about ten feet away from where Joey was lying, but whoever hit him must have disappeared into the abyss again, which was the horrifying part. Yami could feel his heartbeat in his ears; afraid to take another step without possibly getting hit himself.

"Fuck," Joey growled, wrapping his arms around his waist.

Against better judgment, Tristan walked blindly towards the sound of Joey's voice and to where he thought Yugi was sitting. But since the air was so dangerously dark, it was damn near improbable.

"Dude where are you—"

A bright flash of lightning interrupted his speech and for a brief second everyone saw the a black shadowy figure standing right above Joey, wielding something in its hand but it was unrecognizable. The unknown person raised said weapon in their hands as if they were going to hit Joey again, but this time Tristan saw it. He cried out and ran towards the figure as the room went dark again. Lunging blindly, his nose hit the side of the person's arm and it stung like hell, but Tristan successfully struck them down before they could hit Joey. Unfortunately, they also knocked Yugi down in the process and his head hit the concrete with a sickening thud.

"Someone turn on a fucking light or something!" Jaden yelled, wandering aimlessly around the warehouse for one. It was too dangerous being in this place with a madman in the dark. Everyone else dispersed, including the Kaiba brothers to find some kind of switch or something to illuminate the room. The shuffling of feet bounced off the walls, with constant back and forth movement of shadows throughout the room. It looked like a bad horror flick gone worse.

Joey and Tristan were on the ground with Yugi and the unknown assailant. When Tristan knocked into everyone, they all fell and bumped Yugi down in the process as well. Tristan had his arms around someone—he didn't know but his instincts told him to keep a firm grip on whomever he had so that they couldn't get away. The person in question felt a whole lot slimmer than Joey or Yugi would've been. Even by Yugi's standards.

Could it have possibly been another woman? And where did Tea go? She went unusually quiet when Joey approached them and more so Tristan and she seemed to have disappeared into the blinding darkness. Everyone else was randomly placed throughout the building, banging into tables and cursing when they hit another wall or empty cabinets with a body part, knees and feet in particular.

Yugi lay still on the ground, grinding his teeth and waiting for the pain in his head to stop throbbing so much. It felt like a pulse or a heartbeat and he was sure that he was slipping in and out of consciousness or maybe he was just sleepy. He wasn't sure. He heard and felt the shuffling of footsteps around him and he panicked, not knowing whose belonged to who. He felt a foot on his shoulder and he cried out when he felt the weight crush his side.

Yugi tried to scream, but the gag rendered any effort useless and Joey and Tristan seemed to have their hands tied. The pressure on his shoulder forced Yugi on his back now, hands bound behind him. It was tender and sore from the weight but Yugi was too distracted by the smacking of shoes by his head and ears and he flinched each time they got a little too close for comfort.

Meanwhile, Jaden was at the far right end of the building still searching for a light switch. He tripped over a chair and almost smacked his face right against the concrete wall but he held his hands out to protect himself. While using the wall as leverage, he accidentally grazed the light switch on.

Everyone groaned immediately as they were confronted off guard with a piercing white light. Yami was the only person still standing near the entrance, Joey and Tristan stood near Yugi, who was flat on his back, hands tied behind him, gag in his mouth, pants at his ankles, and exposed like a mofo. If Yami couldn't bear to look at him, imagine how Yugi felt. The man felt his chest swell, not knowing if he was more angry or sympathetic. They seemed to have clashed on a balance scale with equal weight inside of his head. For the first time ever, Yami felt his heart physically breaking. But thanks to his brother, everything was in clear view and as soon as the lights were in, Yami made a beeline for Yugi.

Big mistake.

He was stuck in the back of his neck. Yami screamed in pain as he crumbled to the floor cupping the nape. Everyone else ran towards the person who attacked him, holding a kendo stick. He—or she was wearing black from head to toe, face and hair covered in a ski mask. When Mokuba and his older brother approached the rest of the group, he made a face when he laid eyes on the assailant. Where had he seen that ski mask before? And those gloves? He couldn't put his finger on it.

As soon as everyone rushed in to help Yami, Joey and Tristan, the person backed up, gripping the stick in his or her hand. Any idiot could see that the figure was a woman though, if the boobs were any indication, though it was hard to see at first with all the black attire and get up. Yugi finally came to, and moaned softly, immediately catching Yami's attention. Tristan and Jaden pulled Yami up, but he wanted to take Yugi first and unhook him from that damn chair.

"Let me go!" he cried. "We need to help Yugi!"

"You'll keep your mitts off my Yugi if you know what's good for you!"

The high pitched shrill voice caught everyone off guard, but they immediately recognized who it was.

"Rebecca? Tea? Who the hell else is here?" Joey grimaced, clutching his stomach.

"Your Yugi? Sorry, but you guys ended a long time ago," Yami snapped, gritting his teeth when his neck throbbed, not to mention the tense muscles in the back of his head. "You girls must be sick to fly all the way over here just to take him from us."

Yami and the others were standing on one side of Yugi while Rebecca and Tea stood on the other side. By this time, Rebecca had taken off her ski mask and Tea was now dressed in a pink robe.

"Oh don't worry," said Tea with a growl. "We didn't come here alone. We had help."

Joey arched an eyebrow. "From?"

A third slender figure emerged from the darkness, heels clashing against the concrete floor, demanding everyone's attention.

"Me."

Kaiba face palmed. "This is what happens when no one listens to me."

He already knew that Mai was the third person. He suspected Mai when they first arrived at Egypt when she disappeared as soon as they checked into the hotel. Ever since she met Yami, she was acting strange and aloof. And Kaiba had a feeling as to why. He just needed her to admit it.

Play.

"So what's this? We've been set up by Charlie's Angels?" Joey demanded, finally able to stand on his own two feet without any assistance. He still felt the twinge in his abs though.

Tea rolled her eyes heavenward. "That's so typical of you Joey, being the class clown," she muttered. "Not to mention the center of attention. If someone else was getting the spotlight, you'd do something stupid to change that, because you couldn't handle someone else taking your glory."

"Is that what this is about?" Joey laughed, clutching his stomach. Tristan and Jaden looked around at the others, who looked extremely uncomfortable. "You traveled twenty-odd hours to kidnap and abuse your best friend because of some trivial ass shit? Wow woman. You make everything I've done in the past look like child's play."

"Oh, baby you ain't seen nothing yet," Tea sneered, raising her arms to reveal another kendo stick. Rebecca did the same while she took a couple of steps forward, forcing everyone else to take them back, and she stood right in front of Yugi with a sinister smirk. She looked down at his defeated form and laughed, and her shrill undertone made Yami's bones clench with apprehension.

"What do you want?" he demanded, his voice so small it was almost shameful.

"Isn't it obvious by now?" she giggled. "I want what belongs to me. Yugi was mine before you came and took him away from me."

"Wow kid, don't you think that's a little cliché?" Yami sighed, rubbing his throbbing temples. They were mostly thumping from irritation and tiredness but Rebecca wasn't making it any easier. "Kidnapping your ex boyfriend when he gets in a new relationship? I've seen this millions of times before."

"Yeah, only this time, the bad guys will win," she insisted. "Yugi was living a pretty good life until this bad luck charm came in and ruined that. I mean think about it. He lost his grandpa, and then got tricked into buying drugs and attempting suicide. And just to show what kind of company he was keeping, you guys broke into a mental institution and kidnapped him and you all flew here to Egypt to hide from the law. You thought you guys were gonna be safe here didn't you?"

"I have a dumb question," Jaden intervened, sticking his index finger in the air. "How'd you girls find out we were here?"

A heavy pause.

"Seto Kaiba of course."

"What?" everyone yelled and turned around in unison at the two Kaiba brothers standing near the entrance. Mokuba's eyes widened, like he'd just been caught off guard. He pushed against his brother, standing a bit behind him, almost using him as a shield as everyone stared in shocked discovery at the two.

"What in the name of horse shit is she talking about Kaiba? Because I swear to God if you set this whole thing up—"

The light went out before Joey could finalize his threat. Everyone panicked and began to scatter again about the room but Yami went down on his hands and knees, desperate to find Yugi. Thankfully, his babe wasn't too far ahead. He felt the rough texture of fabric, the pant leg of denim jeans, though extremely damp and cold, Yami was sure that he found who he was looking for. He crawled over the limp body, noticing the lack of heat coming from him, amplified by the involuntary quaking and shivering that Yugi's muscles couldn't help but execute. Yami immediately took his pants by the ankles and pulled them up. There was dried semen all over Yugi's leg and thighs and his penis was stuck to the side. Would've been a beautiful site otherwise, but now wasn't one of those moments.

On top of not being able to see due to the poor conditions, Yami's vision began to give him even more problems. The corner of his eyes stung as he lifted Yugi upwards after pulling his pants to his hips and then zipping his fly. Yugi barely moved a muscle. He looked physically and emotionally exhausted, hair disordered, breathing haggard, skin flushed, pale and clammy and he could barely keep his head up. His entire body hurt especially his head that was still raw and aching from the fall he took earlier. Yami was overwhelmed with grief. Not being able to take it anymore, he grabbed Yugi and wrapped him in an embrace that made him even shudder once their bodies touched. He felt Yugi's chest swell and contract, and then relax once no harm came to him. Figuring out pretty soon that it was Yami, Yugi turned his head to the side and rested it on Yami's shoulders, letting the tears fall down his cheeks. They burned like lava but Yugi didn't care. He just wanted to get out of there before things got worse.

Their tender moment was all but short lived when Mai and Rebecca separated them. Mai grabbed Yami by the hair and pulled aggressively, while Rebecca rolled Yugi's chair away to distance him away from her romantic rival. Yami cursed when he locked strained gazes with Mai's soulless Byzantium eyes, unrecognizable from his point of view. He didn't know who he was staring at. This wasn't the nice woman that he met at Kaiba's mansion. No. It had to be someone else.

"Unhand me woman—"

But he was cut off by a pair of unexpected lips crashing into his own into a forcible kiss, and a slippery tongue taking immediate dominion into Yami's mouth before he could react. Her sudden, brash movement caught Yami off guard and he pushed her away, but it only made her more aggressive as Mai cupped both sides of his face and angled her head to get a better taste of her love interest's dark recesses and sweet titillations.

Yami screamed in her mouth and shoved her away as hard as he could. When she was a safe enough distance after she fell on her ass, he made a beeline for Yugi and Rebecca. She had the kendo stick in her hand still but this time Yami didn't care. He was just desperate to get Yugi away from her.

"What do you want?" he demanded with venom in his tone.

"For you to stay away from Yugi!" she hissed. "Go be with Mai. She wants you more anyway."

"Bullshit!" Yami spat. "You and Tea somehow brainwashed her to go through with this. I know Mai wouldn't willingly go through something like this. She just…."

Rebecca's kendo stick interjected whatever else Yami was going to say. She swiftly swung the weapon in his direction before he leaned back and yanked it with his arm, tucking it under his armpit and leaning forward again, matrix style. Rebecca tried pulling the stick back but Yami was stronger than she was and he showed it by snatching the stick from her completely.

"Let Yugi go now," he growled through clenched teeth.

"Yami look behind you!"

He couldn't respond fast enough. Tea had jumped on his back, snaking her arms around his throat and squeezing until Yami's face was a scarlet red blood vessel about to burst. He dropped the stick in the process. She then turned Yami around while he desperately tried to catch his second wind, grabbed his cheeks and kissed him.

Mai made a face and she scoffed, walking over and grabbing Tea's shoulders, spinning her around. Before Tea could ask why, she was smacked in the face.

"The fuck was that for?" Mai demanded. "That wasn't part of the plan."

Tea looked at Mai, scandalized, cupping her bruised cheek. "Plans changed, honey."

"No!" Rebecca cried, coming in between them. "The plan was to trick Kaiba into telling us where Yugi was, we take him for ransom, force Yami to break up with him and then I take Yugi back while Mai gets Yami. Tea, you were just the foot in the door."

"Ouch," Joey muttered, whistling sympathetically. "Seems like you left us because you got tired of taking backseat, only to be backseat to someone else."

"I'm not taking backseat to no fucking body," Tea scowled. She pushed past Rebecca and Mai and walked up to Yami. "You guys can have Yugi."

"I thought you wanted Yugi to yourself?" said Mai. "At least that's how I envisioned it.

Yugi internally rolled his eyes. He couldn't believe he was being passed around and auctioned like yesterday's newspaper. He wished so bad that someone would fucking untie him already because he was becoming incredibly sore from the position he was stuck in. It was going to take forever to get the kinks out of his neck.

He squirmed in his seat and made a noise that garnered everyone's attention. Yami especially and he forced his way through the girls to get to him, but they all stood shoulder to shoulder as a road block between him and Yugi.

"Move," he scowled with a deep seeded anger that even he didn't realize he could feel. "If you don't let us go right now, I'll have the police here in five minutes."

"That's cool," Mai said calmly. "And then we'll just have to inform them that all of you are fugitives on the run. We just did you a favor by catching you."

"You were on the run with us too, genius," Joey pointed out. "How are you gonna explain that?"

"Simple. I was undercover," Mai replied. "Kaiba and I were. Once he told me your plan Joey, that's when we got the FBI involved. We only kidnapped Yugi as a pretense, but as you can see," she glared at Tea, "Someone got selfish along the way."

"Wait, pause. So you kidnapped Yugi just to trap us here?" Yami demanded.

"Guilty as charged," said Mai with the most evil smirk.

"But did you have to beat the little guy up?" Jaden asked. "You guys got what you wanted, just let him go."

"Oh we will, once the police get here," Rebecca responded.

Kaiba said nothing the entire time, which was odd. He stood in the background with his brother listening to what was being said about him, but he didn't do so much as to lift a finger to defend himself. Neither did Mokuba. The younger Kaiba looked up at his brother, whose face was unrecognizable, one hand in his pocket and the other playing with the touchscreen of his phone. Mokuba didn't panic too much if his brother wasn't even responding to what he was being accused of.

"Aren't you going to say something Seto?" he whispered. He gasped a little when Kaiba gave him the side eye and smirked.

"I won't need to."

Mokuba perched an eyebrow but didn't respond. He knew how his brother operated but even he was confused by his lax behavior sometimes. But he didn't question it. He figured Kaiba had bigger plans for everyone, at least he'd hope.

Silly women. Thinking Kaiba was ever on their side. He was one step ahead of everyone, as usual.

Everyone else was yelling back and forth, throwing insults and curses at each other. Tea and Rebecca arguing against Yami, Joey and Jaden. Tristan on the other hand saw the perfect opportunity to sneak up from behind and grab Yugi. He did just that without being detected.

Yugi was too weak to stand or walk on his own. When Tristan untied him, he picked him up bridal style and instead of walking back around in front of the three women, he tip toed towards the back of the building to the opposite end. Surely there must be a latch on this garage door. The way they came in couldn't have been the only way out as well.

And if Tristan didn't find it soon, the trio would've come after him, kendo sticks and all.

Yugi felt like dead weight in his arms, so it was twice as hard to carry him, but luckily Tristan was able to reach the door without being noticed. He placed Yugi in the corner and he immediately brought his knees to his chest, burying his face inside, making faint whimpers. Tristan made a face. He couldn't imagine Yugi going through this a second time. When was enough going to be enough?

"Don't worry buddy, we'll get this straightened out," he promised.

He must have said it a little too loud because the arguing and bickering came to a halt. Mai, Tea and Rebecca sharply turned their heads towards Tristan's voice.

"Hey!" Rebecca's voice echoed in the warehouse before they ran towards the two boys. Tristan panicked and pried his fingers under the garage door and lifted with all of his might. But it wouldn't budge.

"Fucking hell," he grimaced. He glanced over at Yugi who now lay on his side, looking at him with tired, desperate eyes. Tristan's heart thumped as he heard the girls' footsteps getting closer and closer and he cursed when he still couldn't get the damn door to open.

It unlatched without warning. Tristan felt his legs go weightless under him and he was lifted with his fingers still attached to the bottom of the door. His grip wasn't very sturdy so he was forced to let go, falling flat on his ass. On the ground though he was confronted by the blinding presence of the outside world, bringing an ache in between his eyes.

Tristan crawled quickly towards Yugi to pick him up. He was sure that this was the part where everyone got arrested. Rebecca, Tea and Mai stopped in their tracks and dropped their weapons and from the looks on their faces, it seemed as though the party was over. That was too bad.

From the other far end, Yami could distinctly notice Atemu and his group of cronies standing at the sidewalk outside of the building. He didn't know whether to be relieved or annoyed but at the moment he couldn't decide on an emotion right then and there.

"Who are these clowns?" Rebecca demanded. She took a glance at Atemu, who was standing with his arms crossed, smug look on his face and his legs shoulder length apart. He was so cocky and superior, side eyeing his cousin Marik on the left, and Bakura on the right. They, along with Seth were holding semi automatic rifles.

"Shit…" Tea said under her breath. She didn't anticipate this happening at all.

Without a word exchanged at all, Atemu's bodyguards aimed their weapons at the three girls and pulled the trigger, igniting a chain reaction; Tristan clutched Yugi in his arms to protect him; Yami, Jaden, Joey, Tristan and the Kaiba brothers running towards the other side of the building where they entered. Kaiba pushed everyone out of the way so that he could open the garage door himself. It opened with ease and as soon as the thing reached its height, Atemu was standing on the other side greeting them with the silliest smile on his face. Yami took one more glance back into the building and saw that Bakura, Marik and Seth were tying the girls up with rope and duct tape. Tristan and Yugi were nowhere to be found and Yami would've asked why but Atemu saw the look on his face before he could open his mouth.

"Just get in the truck," he told everyone. "I just saw police cars down the street."

"Shit," Joey scowled under his breath. "Now we're all gonna get slammed for murder."

Atemu just smirked. That was of no concern, and when his entourage escorted Tristan and Yugi in the second vehicle, they sped off down the slick roads of Alexandria at lightning speed, zig-zagging through traffic, trying to elude anything that might be chasing them—namely law enforcement.

Yami was in the very back seat, arms folded on the headrest with his chin resting on the crook, with his eyes peeled to the rear window at the second truck that was following close from behind. He wanted so bad to be there with Yugi but he trusted Tristan to take care of him. Yami still had his phone so he couldn't call him, so the best thing he could do was sit tight and hope for the best.

"Hey," Atemu said, jolting him out of his muse when he felt his hand on his knee. "Yugi's gonna be fine."

"Is he?" Yami replied, rolling his eyes at the man. "This is getting old. He's been through enough already. I just wanna be at peace for once."

"You guys will," Atemu assured him. "Just let us get you out of here."

"Out of here?" Yami repeated. "Where the hell are we going—oh god don't tell me."

"Before you answer that, what the hell did your guys do to those women?" asked Jaden. "They're not like….dead or anything are they?"

Atemu laughed, and Yami made a face when he saw his adam's apple bobbing up and down.

"Of course not! They were just paint guns. All my guys did was make a mess of those girls cute little outfits," he said.

"So why the hell are we running?" Yami queried.

"Because we'll get in trouble if we don't?" Atemu told him, his answer sounding more like a question than a statement.

"Wait, what do you mean we, mister movie star? Don't you have another film to make or something?"

"Yep, and I'm inviting all you to come watch a master at work," the man offered, resting his hands behind his head.

"News flash, Einstein: We're all on the run, we can't just stop by the studio to get a sneak peak of your new little movie while we're still in Egypt. We'll get caught here," Yami lamented.

Atemu cocked one eyelid open and looked at him, making both of Yami's eyebrows arch. "Who said it was in Egypt?"


I'll post a sequel for this in the future. Thanks for reading guys! :)
