-------------------------------------------

Back at the Kaiba mansion, Seto Kaiba got off the phone with Isis and dropped his head into his hands. He'd had to explain an awful lot more than he'd felt comfortable with to get the woman to co-operate - although it seemed that she already knew quite a lot and just wanted to make him uncomfortable. Whether that was the case or not, the strain was quite telling on him.

In the end, Isis had said that she may have an idea of where to find the information that Seto needed and that she would send photos to him as soon as they turned anything up. She did warn him, however, that it could take a while. He'd thanked her, promised a sizeable donation to her cause and hung up. The woman had always infuriated him, in both this life and the last, and he wanted to have as little to do with her as possible.

/Seto, are you alright?/ Jou asked, concerned at the feelings that were flooding through his soul mate.

/I'm fine Jou,/ Seto said. /That woman just irritates me, that's all./

/Heh, yeah, I get what you mean,/ Jou agreed. /She was still kinda freaky even after she gave up the Millennium Necklace. And let's not even talk about her brother and what he got up to with that damned rod./ Jou gave a shudder at the recollection of being possessed and what he'd been forced to do under the power of the Millennium Rod.

Seto also winced at the reminder of Jou's possession. He recalled the sheer panic he'd felt as Jou was drowning, not understanding where the feeling was coming from at the time. Yes, he would have saved 'the mutt' anyway - the bad publicity that Kaiba Corp would have garnered had one of the participants died in such a way had been the official reason - but the fear that Jou might die was beyond anything that he'd experienced before.

After he'd dropped the key into the water and Jou was safely back on land he'd reacted badly and he'd been especially mean to Jou for a while afterwards. Of course if he'd just taken the rod from Malik back then things might have turned out differently. He could have done it easily as he'd recognised the power even though he'd been firmly in denial about magic and the Rod had been his by right after all. But then again, some things had to happen for a reason...

/Seto, could you come in here please?/ Jou said, cutting through Seto's guilt-filled reminiscence. /I want to talk to you about something./

Seto sighed. He knew what Jou wanted to talk about and he had promised Jou that they would talk about... past events. Not that he really wanted to right now, but a promise was a promise and he'd done enough of ignoring Jou's feelings recently.

/Alright Katsuya,/ Seto said, /I'll be with you in a moment./ He made sure that everything was shut down then crossed to the bed and lay down, reaching inside himself in order to step into his soul room.

"Seto!" Jou exclaimed as he threw himself across the room and tackled the spiritual form of Kaiba.

"Oof! Jonouchi!" Seto said a little more forcefully than he had intended. Jou winced and shrank back.

"Sorry, Seto," he said as he looked down, showing how insecure he still was when it came to Kaiba.

"No, I'm sorry Katsuya," Seto said reassuringly. "You just caught me by surprise. I didn't mean to snap at you." He led Jou over to the bed where they sat down and made themselves comfortable. "Now, I believe I promised you an explanation."

"You don't have to explain anything if you don't want to," Jou said, offering Seto an out.

"No, Jonouchi, I promised you an explanation and it is something that you have every right to know about," he said. "But first I have to ask you something. How much do you remember of your previous life?"

"I don't remember anything really," Jou replied. "I have had a few dreams though…" a blush crossed his face as he recalled some of the jucier ones.

"Oh?" Seto said. "What kind of dreams?"

"Ah… the kind of dreams where you end up having to change the sheets," Jou said, his face a flaming shade of red.

"Oh," Seto sported a blush himself, "I see." He pulled himself together. "So, did Yami ever tell you anything about the past?" he asked.

"No, and I never really thought to ask him," Jou said. "I figured that if it were really important he would tell me. Doctor Kenn suggested that I should find out as it might help me to understand why you hated me so much, but I've hardly seen Yugi since then."

"Doctor Kenn knew about this?" Seto asked with some shock.

"I needed someone to talk to, and with him being your personal doctor and all, I knew he'd keep it to himself," Jou said. "He was the only one I told and I'm sorry if I shouldn't have said anything…"

"No, it's fine," Seto reassured him. He couldn't say he was completely happy about it, but he could understand why Jou had spoken to Doctor Kenn and at least he hadn't told that Doctor Tofu...

"So, why you don't like to think about your past life?" Jou asked, reminding Seto of just what they were here to talk about.

"Where to begin?" Seto pondered, thinking over it for a moment. "You do know that Seth and Jono were together back then don't you?" he finally asked.

"Yeah, Yami did tell me that much. I remember when he told us that we were soul mates, but even though it did explain a lot, I found it really hard to believe at the time."

"But it is true, and I'm sorry for belittling you over it during that duel," Seto said. "Being here with you, I feel more complete and content than I ever have before in this life. I'm really sorry that I fought against it so hard."

"I already told you that I forgive you," Jou said. "But there's more to it than that, isn't there?"

"Yes," Seto sighed. "When Seth first saw Jono he was about to be executed and Seth experienced a sense of panic, knowing that he needed to save the slave." Seto paused then, thinking about how similar the feeling had been to when Jou had been underwater at the docks. He also found himself wondering why he hadn't felt the same way when Jonouchi had 'died' on the island of Alcatraz, coming to the conclusion that deep down he must have known that Jou wasn't actually in danger.

"Uh huh," Jou said, pulling Seto out of his musing. "I guess that you saved me, so then what?"

"Seth wasn't happy about saving the slave in such circumstances and to begin with he treated Jono quite badly," Seto explained. "Jono gave as good as he got and they often came to blows, both in private and in public. This made Atem's other advisers wonder why Seth didn't just have Jono put to death and have done with it and Seth wondered the same thing, only every time he thought about it the panic would bubble up again and he knew that it was not an option. This just made him resent Jono even more."

"Sounds awful and I gotta say that I'm glad I don't remember it," Jou said, a sad look on his face. "So, how long did this go on for?"

"Several weeks," Seto replied with a touch of shame. "Deep down Seth knew exactly why he couldn't get rid of Jono, but he was nothing if not stubborn."

"Sounds like someone else I know," Jou said, digging his elbow lightly into Seto's side.

"Quite," Seto said wryly. "Eventually they had it out in Seth's private chamber. Passions overflowed and they ended up in bed." Seto coloured slightly as he recalled the event. "The High Priest and his slave; so wrong yet it felt so right. It was only then that Seth admitted the truth, that they were soul mates, but that presented them with a new set of problems."

"What kind of problems," Jou asked.

"The High Priest could not be seen to have a slave for a soul mate," Seto explained. "You have to understand that things were very different in those days and the station that you were born into, you stayed in. There was no 'bettering yourself' back then and if you were born a slave, you stayed a slave. That the High Priest's soul mate was a slave - and a male slave at that - would have been a massive scandal that the priesthood would not have easily recovered from."

"So what did they do?" Jou wondered.

"First of all, Seth went to his cousin, the Pharaoh, to inform him as to what had occurred. Atem agreed that it had to be kept under wraps, although it would be nigh on impossible to keep it from Isis. However, he did promise to help find a way to make Jono acceptable.

"And did they?"

"No," Seto sighed. "Then, a few months later there were a rash of assassination attempts. The assassins couldn't get to either Seth or Atem, so... so..." Seto choked up slightly.

Jou put his hand on Seto's back in a comforting gesture. "You don't need to tell me any more if you don't want to," he said.

"No, it's fine," Seto said, getting himself under control. "I need to tell you, to get this out, it will just keep festering otherwise." He took a deep breath. "The assassins decided that if they couldn't get at me, that they would send me a message by killing my favourite slave instead."

Jou gasped out loud as Seto finished that sentence, his hands flying instantly to his throat. Visions of his death as Jono assailed him, the white hot fire of his throat being slit and his life draining away accompanied by Seth's mental anguish, finally followed by an eternity of lonely nothingness. He came back to his senses to find tears flowing down his face, being held tightly by Seto who was trying to calm him. "Jono..." he gasped out, "I died."

"Yes," Seto nodded sagely, loosening his hold on Jou. "And if you know anything about Soul Mates, then you should know that one cannot survive without the other. Usually."

"You stayed behind didn't you?" Jou's eyes widened in shock. "How did you ever stand it?"

"I very nearly didn't," Seto replied. "Atem helped me to stay alive at the start, but I had always intended to follow you as soon as things had settled down. The trouble was that things never really did and then I found myself as Pharaoh soon afterwards and it was no longer an option. The pain... the loss... I lived out my life with that eternal ache, then when I met you again in this life all I could feel was pain so I pushed you away." He moved from the bed and knelt on the floor in front of Jou, gazing up into his face. "I am so sorry. Can you ever forgive me?"

Jou sank onto the floor himself and gathered Seto into his arms. It hadn't escaped his notice that Seto had stopped referring to Seth as a separate person towards the end of his explanation, showing that he was now truly accepting of his past. "Damn it Seto, it's not your fault. I'm just sorry that you had to go through all that alone." he said, then, impulsively, he pulled back and placed his lips over Seto's. The kiss was short and sweet, but Jou couldn't help but feel that there was something… missing.

"Well," Seto said as the kiss ended, "That was nice. It would be a lot better in person though."

"Oh!" Jou exclaimed. "That's what is missing!"

"Yes," Seto said. "Kissing spiritually is very nice, but spiritual kisses cannot compare to physical kisses."

"I'd like to kiss you in the flesh," Jou said sadly, even as he blushed.

"If we can ever get free of the curse and get our separate bodies back, I promise that I will kiss you silly," Seto said with a small smile. 'And more,' he thought quietly.

"I hope we can figure it out," Jou said with a sigh, "although being together like this is better than nothing."

"I agree," Seto said, "but I can't help but suspect that the answer to getting free of the curse lies with those damned Amazons and I really don't trust them."

"I'm sure we'll work it out eventually," Jou said, some of his natural optimism beginning to return.

"I'm sure that we will," Seto replied hoping that Jonouchi's optimism wasn't going to be ill founded. They moved back to the bed and he held Jou close, finally permitting himself the luxury of enjoying being with his soul mate, even under these difficult circumstances. The world could go to hell for the moment, all that mattered right now was in his arms.

-------------------------

Over the next few weeks, Seto and Jou started to get into a kind of routine. Seto would go to school, but he made sure that there were at least a couple of hours a day where Jou could see his friends. In the evenings he went to Kaiba Corp, where Nabiki was working out beautifully in her new position, although she hadn't got much further with trying to find anything to help Seto with his legal position, especially as she had to be quite circumspect in going about it lest she tip anyone off.

Seto had also intervened with the school on Jou's behalf. He took in a doctor's note, signed by both Dr. Kenn and Dr. Tofu, stating that Jonouchi had a condition that prevented him from coming to school. He then arranged things so that Jonouchi could take his end of year exams outside of the school system if he wasn't able to attend by the time the end of the school year came around. As it was, with a little help from Seto explaining things during his own lessons, Jou began to improve academically in leaps and bounds, surprising Seto with his capacity to learn.

Yugi and Anzu's relationship progressed, although they hadn't managed to get together since the night that Jou had almost killed himself. Yugi's Grandpa still ribbed him about it occasionally and said that Yugi could bring Anzu around any time he felt like it. Yugi had not taken him up on the offer.

Shizuka also continued to see both Honda and Otogi. The two boys had reassured Jou, once he had finally calmed down after finding out about their relationship, that they would not take advantage of her, not least of all because she was still under-age. That didn't stop Jou from keeping a very close eye on them.

Indeed, everything seemed to be going quite well, but then things changed.

The friends began to notice some strange women appearing and they seemed to be scoping out the group, especially Seto (or Jou) and Yugi. Yugi, who had almost forgotten about the possible threat from the Amazons, was to be surprised one day when a pink haired girl, clearly unable to contain her impatience, confronted him when he was alone in the school yard.

"You," she said," I challenge you."

"Err, no thanks. I'm not interested, really," Yugi said, eyes widening as he recognised the Amazon that had confronted him as their class had left the Amazon's territory all those weeks beforehand.

"I challenge other you then," She continued.

"He's not interested either," Yugi replied with a calmness that he did not feel inside, noticing that the girl was slowly backing him up. Before long he was pressed against the wall and the pink haired Amazon had a knife in her hand.

"I should have claimed you when you on Amazon land," She said lowly. "Now you make it difficult so if you not fight then you I kill." She pressed the knife against his collar, slicing the leather as if it were butter.

/Yami!/ Yugi called his other half, his fear threatening to overwhelm him as he felt the knife pricking against his skin. Yami wasn't sure that the girl would actually slit Yugi's throat, but he wasn't about to take the chance so he surged into control and exploded with shadow power, the shock wave not only cracking the wall behind him, but throwing the Amazon clear across the yard and into the fence surrounding the school. Then, as quickly as he had appeared, Yami disappeared back inside his host.

Yugi bent down to pick up the severed collar, the smooth edges of the cut speaking of a razor sharp blade, then he cautiously approached the downed Amazon as a crowd began to gather, drawn by the disturbance.

"Wo ai ni. Wo da airen," the Amazon murmured, still out of it.

"What is she saying?" someone in the crowd asked.

"She's saying… I love you my husband, or something like that," a reply came. Yugi paled. He - or rather Yami - had just defeated an Amazon!

Seto, who had noticed that something was happening across the yard, stalked imperiously over to where the altercation was taking place. "What is going on here?" he demanded. The crowd scattered, not willing to get on the wrong side of the icy CEO. Seto noted that Yugi was looking pale and was shaking. "What happened?" he asked more gently.

"She… she came out of nowhere." Yugi said shakily. "She… had a knife to my throat," he held up the severed collar to demonstrate, "I didn't mean to…"

"You did something?" Seto asked.

"Yami… he had to throw her off. Now she's apparently saying that I'm her husband." Yugi turned panicked eyes onto the tall teen next to him. "What am I going to do?"

So Nabiki had been right; these Amazons were not averse to forgetting parts of their lore when it suited them. How dishonourable. He pressed a button on the cell phone in his pocket and smirked as, within moments, both he and Yugi were surrounded by bodyguards.

"Don't worry Yugi, you had no choice." Seto reassured the shaken teen. "Now, first I need to get us out of here," he said as he turned one last disparaging look on the stunned Amazon before beginning to move away, the bodyguards continuing to shield them. "We'll go to the mansion. We should be more secure there, at least for now."

"What about Anzu?" Yugi asked with worry in his voice. "What if the Amazons already view her as an obstacle? She'll be in danger."

"I agree, that could be a problem," Kaiba said. He turned and instructed a few of his bodyguards to go and fetch the blue eyed girl. "I'm going to call Nabiki and get her to meet us at home," he said as they walked towards the car.

Soon, Seto and Yugi were safely sat in the back of Seto's personal limo and they were shortly joined by a confused Anzu. "What's going on?" she asked, "And Yugi, where's your collar?"

"Amazons," Yugi said simply, passing Anzu the severed collar. "They've made their first move. I'm afraid that... we had to defeat one of them."

Anzu paled as she looked at the ruined collar, then looked closely at Yugi's neck to see if there was any injury. Once she was satisfied that he was OK, she sat back again. "So, what are we going to do now?"

"We are going to ground for now while we figure it out," Seto said. "We'll go past your homes and you'll have to pack some clothes in case you need to stay for a while."

"But what about school?" Anzu asked.

"I'll arrange for any work that we need to be sent to us," Seto informed her. "Surely you would rather miss a few days of school than Yugi end up in Amazon clutches?"

"I'll agree with that sentiment, Kaiba," Yugi said. "I'm sure that grandpa will agree too."

"I'm not so sure my mom will," Anzu said.

"I'll explain things to her," Seto said. "But whether she agrees or not, you are coming to the mansion where I have a better chance of being able to keep you safe."

/Thanks for looking out for my friends, Seto./ Jou said.

/I guess…/ Seto paused as he wrestled with the words. /I guess that I consider these two to be my friends as well. But don't expect that to extend to dice boy and fin head./

Jou didn't say anything else, pleased as he was that Seto had come this far, simply giving a large mental grin as they pulled up outside Anzu's house. Bodyguards lined the way to the front door as Anzu led them inside and called out to her mother.

"Anzu? What are you doing home so early?" She asked. Then she spotted the two boys with her. "Hello Yugi. I do hope that your grandfather knows that you are cutting school." Her attention then landed on the final person in the group. "And you are?" She asked pointedly.

"My name is Seto Kaiba," he introduced himself.

"The Seto Kaiba? Of Kaiba Corporation?" She asked.

"Yes, the very same," he bowed to her. "We are here because we need to speak to you about a possible threat to your daughter's safety."

She could tell from the look on the tall CEO's face that he was deadly serious. "Please, come through," she said, even as Anzu ran up the stairs. "Where are you going, Anzu?" she asked.

"Kaiba will explain. " Anzu said as she disappeared into her room to pack.

So," Anzu's mother began after she got the two boys settled in the living room. "Just what kind of danger is my Anzu in?"

"This is probably going to sound a little… far fetched," Kaiba began, "but we have run afoul of some Chinese Amazons. For whatever reason, they have decided that Yugi here," he gestured towards the other teen, "is prime husband material. The problem is that they say that 'obstacles are for killing' and they may just regard Anzu as an obstacle."

"Why would they want Yugi?" the woman asked.

"Yugi is in possession of... certain abilities that they find valuable," Seto evaded.

"So how does that involve you, Seto?" she asked, wondering what could make the teen that Anzu had called a cold fish so many times in the past suddenly care about someone other than himself.

"They have also decided that I am a suitable candidate to be a husband for one of their number, for similar reasons to Yugi," he said simply, knowing that answer would probably not satisfy the woman.

"That doesn't explain the change of heart," she pressed. "The Seto Kaiba that I've heard so much about would have ignored everyone else in order to save his own skin."

Seto looked just a little shamefaced. "Up until recently that would have been true, but then I had what you might like to say was a wake up call. It was something that changed my view of the world drastically."

"I see…" she mused. "Well, if you really do have the best interests of my daughter at heart…"

"He does, Mrs Mazaki," Yugi interjected.

"Alright then," she said. "If Yugi is vouching for you then I'll give my blessing for this," she gave the boys a frank look, "although I suspect that it wouldn't have mattered whether I'd agreed or not, would it?"

Neither teen felt like answering that. Yugi looked a little embarrassed and Seto feigned a nonchalant air. Then Anzu walked into the room with a well packed bag slung over her shoulder. "Is everything alright?" she asked.

Her mother got up, crossed to her daughter and enveloped her in a hug. "Look after yourself," she said. "And call me. Oh, and one more thing." She reached into a nearby drawer and pulled out a box. "Just in case, eh?" She said as she handed the box to Anzu with a wink.

"Mother!" Anzu exclaimed as she registered that the box in her hand contained condoms, her face flushing scarlet as she shoved them into her bag anyway. She looked over at the two boys to find Yugi looking mortified and Seto sporting a smirk. "Err, we'd better get going then." Giving her mom one last hug, they departed the house and got back into the limo. Next stop: the Kame Game shop.

"Yugi, my boy! Sugoruko Mutou greeted his grandson as he walked through the door with Anzu. "Cutting school eh?" he winked at Yugi. "Well, if you're cutting school with this lovely young lady here…"

"Get your mind out of the gutter, old man," Seto said as he stepped into the shop behind Yugi and Anzu. How the hell this guy was supposed to be the reincarnation of one of the most powerful advisers in Ancient Egypt he would never know. "We've run into some problems and Yugi will be coming to stay with me at the mansion until we can get things sorted out. If you need any help running the shop, just let me know and I will assign someone to you."

"No, I'll be fine," the old man reassured Kaiba. "Thank you for the offer though. So, what kind of trouble are we talking about here?" he asked.

"Oh, just some Chinese Amazons that have decided that I'll be a good addition to their tribe. You know, the usual kind of insanity." Yugi shrugged as he pushed past his Grandpa to go and grab some clothes.

"Amazons, eh?" The old man said, "I ran into a few of those myself in my youth. Did my best to avoid them as they were a strange lot."

"I'll agree with that!" Anzu said.

"So, Anzu, are you going to be staying over with Kaiba too?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Err… yes," she admitted reluctantly.

"Hot damn! The old man exclaimed as he quickly moved over to the stairs. "Don't forget the condoms boy!" he called up. "I don't want to be a great grandfather just yet!"

"Grandpa!" The scandalised cry came down the stairs.

"I don't think you need to worry about that," Seto said with a smirk. "Anzu's mother already gave her a box full."

"I like the way that woman thinks," Sugoruko said with a huge grin on his face. Anzu just stood there with a scarlet face and hoped that Yugi would hurry up.

Several awkward moments later Yugi finally appeared, toting a large bag and wearing a new collar. He said goodbye to his Grandpa then followed Seto and Anzu from the shop, the old man catcalling all the way. Once they were all back in the limo and on the way back to the Kaiba mansion, Seto felt that he had to say something.

"I really don't understand something here," He said. "From what I've observed, parents normally want to stop their children from having sex. So what's up with all that?"

"My mother is quite easygoing really, "Anzu said. "She's fine with whatever I do as long as I stay safe and it doesn't hurt that she likes Yugi."

"And you know that my Grandpa is an old pervert," Yugi added.

/My parents don't give a crap what I do,/ Jou said. /not that I've ever had the chance to…/

/What about Mai?/ Seto interrupted, recalling how he always hated the way that the woman hung all over Jou. /I thought that…/

/Yeah, I know, but she's not my type, you should know that,/ Jou said, /especially with the soul mate thing. And I guess that if we don't get this… curse thing sorted out, we are both likely to be virgins forever./ He sighed at that last.

/Never say never, Katsuya,/ Seto said in a soothing tone. /I'm sure that we will find a way out of this sooner or later./

"Jou's input was that his parents wouldn't care," Seto explained as he noticed that Yugi and Anzu were giving him questioning looks. "And considering that I don't have any parents…" The ride was awkwardly silent after that, and they were all relieved when they arrived at the Kaiba mansion. They exited the car and entered the house only for Seto to be immediately glomped by his younger brother.

"Seto, why did you have me taken out of school today?" he looked around Seto to see Yugi and Anzu stood in the entry way. "And why are Yugi and Anzu with you?" he asked.

"The Amazons have made a move," Seto explained. "They forced Yugi to defeat one of their number and I'm sure that they'll try it on either Jou or myself next."

"Oh no, what are we going to do, Seto?" the black haired boy asked.

"Nabiki should be here soon," the tall CEO said, somewhat avoiding the question. "In the meantime, if you could you get Yugi and Anzu settled into a room, I'll contact Isis to see if she has made any more progress with finding the information I need."

"Alright Seto," Mokuba said. "Come on Yugi, Anzu. I'll show you to your… room." The way he emphasised the singular 'room' made both Yugi and Anzu blush. He showed them to a room sumptuously decorated in golden tones with a very large bed up against one wall. "Don't worry, the room is sound proof," Mokuba said with an impish smile as he left them alone.

Yugi and Anzu stood in awkward silence for a moment, then almost as one they dropped their bags and flew into each others arms. Yugi had the presence of mind to make sure that the door was locked, well, at Yami's reminder anyway. This was the first time that they had been alone together for weeks and who knew how long it would be until the next time they would have such an opportunity, never mind that it would likely never happen again if the Amazons succeeded in separating them. Not caring in the slightest that Mokuba, Seto and Jou were likely to guess exactly what they were doing, they wasted no time in making their way over toward the bed, shedding clothes all the way.

Soon, they were completely naked and on the bed, Yugi smothering Anzu with kisses as she ran her hands over his skin and up into his hair. It almost frightened her just how much she wanted this, but she was in no way ready to stop. She let her hands run down his back as he suckled on a sensitive nipple, ghosting her hands over his buttocks before letting both hands move round to embrace his member in a loving caress.

"Oh Anzu," Yugi breathed as she continued to caress the sensitive area. He pulled away from her before long, wanting to make sure that he didn't get too excited as he had done the previous time. He slowly moved a hesitant hand down to caress the tuft of curls between her legs, slipping a finger inside her slit to caress the sensitive button hidden within, smirking in satisfaction as she groaned his name, even as she arched from the bed. He continued to caress her in this intimate manner for a few more moments, bending forwards to capture one of her nipples between his teeth, finally slipping a finger inside her. He groaned aloud as her internal muscles gripped his finger in a welcoming caress, asking for something more.

"Anzu," he groaned as he made to get into position to impale her, only to stop suddenly as he realised that they hadn't brought any of the condoms over to the bed with them.

"Yugi, is something wrong?" Anzu asked as he froze, almost panicking as he made to pull away from her.

"We forgot to unpack the condoms," Yugi said with a groan, "and I almost…" With a supreme effort of will, he wrenched himself away from her, quickly moved across the room and dug in his bag, shortly coming up with one of the foil covered contraceptives. He walked back over to the bed and stood beside it as he passed the condom to Anzu, silently asking her to do the honours. She took it in her stride, sitting up as she unwrapped the condom before leaning forward to roll it onto his length. She stopped, though, before she touched the evidence of Yugi's desire, feeling an urge that she'd never felt before.

Yugi looked at Anzu questioningly as she suddenly stopped moving and blushed as he realised that she was staring straight at his penis, then he almost collapsed as she tossed the condom to one side, leaning forward to take him into her mouth. "Oh God," he breathed as she pleasured him, her tongue caressing his most intimate part, licking gently around the slit as she lifted her hands, one grasping him around the lower part of his shaft, the other moving to caress his balls. He soon began to feel the familiar tightness in his belly, signalling that his release was close.

"Anzu… I…" he gasped out in an attempt to warn her, but her only response was to give an especially hard suck that had him gasping for breath as he released into her mouth.

Anzu, for her part, swallowed everything that he gave to her, wincing a little at the unfamiliar taste. Yugi's reaction was totally worth it though, as he collapsed bonelessly onto the bed. "I love you so damn much," He whispered in the afterglow as he attempted to pull himself back together.

"I love you too," Anzu replied softly as she lay back down next to him and pulled him close. As she had expected, the body in her arms shifted and became slightly longer. "Yami?" She asked.

"That was very naughty of you Anzu," Yami smirked as he teased her. "I think you just blew Yugi's mind."

"That was kind of the idea," Anzu said with a smirk in return.

"So… is it my turn now?" Yami asked.

"Of course," Anzu replied. "But you'll need to go and get another condom. That one got kind of wasted…"

Yami got up from the bed and crossed to the bag and retrieved a small foil packet. He quickly returned to the bed and wasted no time in pinning Anzu down as he ravaged her lips, tasting Yugi's release on them. She gasped again as he moved to suck on her neck.

"Mmm Yami… is Yugi watching?" She asked, remembering how hot she had found the thought last time.

"He's still a little out of it at the moment," Yami said as he continued to work his way down towards her breasts. "I'm sure he'll snap out of it soon."

"Mmm," Anzu moaned again as Yami kneaded one breast with his hand even as he took the opposite nipple into his mouth. She fisted her hands into his hair as he continued to pleasure her, still managing to marvel over it's softness. She pulled him back up to kiss him soundly, groaning as she felt his hardness brushing against her stomach.

"I... I want to feel you inside me," she breathed, "please!" Yami pulled away, reaching for the foil packet that he had retrieved earlier. He quickly opened it and slid the protective sheath over his turgid cock, then moved over Anzu, catching her in a bruising kiss even as he eased inside her. Anzu gripped his shoulders, then ran her hands down over his back, groping at his buttocks which caused him to gasp and buck into her wildly. "I love you Anzu," he gasped as their passion began to build.

"I love you both," Anzu said breathlessly in return, feeling the pressure rising. They moved together for a few minutes more as they gazed lovingly into each others eyes, but all too soon the dam broke and Anzu writhed in pleasure, throwing her head back as she screamed her release. Yami took a little longer, watching Anzu's face as she began to calm down. He leaned forwards and kissed her deeply, letting out a moan as he released deep inside her. He sagged against her as his energy ebbed away, slipping free from her as she stroked his hair. He pulled the condom off and threw it to one side, then they fell into a light slumber together, basking in their love for one another.

Whatever happened now, the Amazons could never take this moment away from them.

----------------------------

Meanwhile, Kaiba wasn't having much luck. He'd had Isono give security an emergency briefing about the Amazon threat, telling them to be sure that no strange women were to be allowed onto the grounds. Tazers were issued to the men, and they were told to use them if necessary. He'd also warned them that if they managed to defeat an Amazon that they were likely to be carted off, but that Kaiba would do his level best to ensure that they were returned safely.

Then Kaiba had called Isis, only to be told that they still hadn't found what they were looking for, although she thought that they may be close. Nabiki had nothing that could help him with the Amazons. Every official avenue she had tried in order to get assistance was a dead end and she was getting a little frustrated. A fact that she had to explain to Kaiba.

"I can only surmise that there is someone in the government that is deflecting any enquiry of this nature," Nabiki informed the CEO. "I suspected that something might be wrong when I originally tried to get some redress for Ranma; that there may be someone in the government structure planted there or bought off by the Amazons to prevent anyone who had fallen foul of them from getting the help they needed, but seeing as Ranma is not an important person in the overall grand scheme of things I couldn't be sure that it wasn't just the usual governmental incompetence at work. However, now that the same thing is happening, even with the Kaiba name involved… Well, you can see the conclusions I'm drawing here."

"I see," Seto said, trying not to show his frustration that yet another avenue seemed to be closed to him. "Thank you Nabiki. I shall sleep on it and decide what I should do with regard to this, if anything, in the morning." He gave her a frank look. "you are more than welcome to stay here in a guest room if you wish," he offered, "I think that things may be about to come to a head and I will need you here. Also, I suspect that it may be the safest place for you at the moment."

"Thank you Sir," Nabiki replied. "I think that may be a good idea so I will take you up on your generous offer."

"Good, I'll get you set up with a room." He summoned one of his staff to escort her to a guest bedroom. "Dinner will be served in about an hour. I'll see you then – or rather, Jonouchi will."

Nabiki bowed, then let the maid escort her from the room.

Once he was alone, Seto dropped his head into his hands. Damn, with the way things were going he would have to… No, he refused to consider that option right now. He preferred to use the diplomatic option first these days – not that the Amazons were making it easy. Still, it could only be a good thing that they were underestimating him, or at least he hoped they were.

/Seto, are you alright?/ Jonouchi asked.

/I'm fine,/ he replied. /Just a little frustrated is all./

/I can understand that,/ Jou said sympathetically, /but I'm sure that you can fix this. If anyone can then it's you./

/Thank you for the vote of confidence Katsuya,/ Seto said with sincerity. He got up from the desk and made his way towards the bathroom. /I do have to confess that I have an ace in the hole, but it is a last resort and I won't use it unless I'm forced into a corner./ He didn't add that the corner looked particularly close right about now.

/Alright Seto, I'll trust you./ Jou said. /Just don't leave it too late to use it, whatever it is./

/I won't, Jou,/ Seto said as he changed back into the blond. /I won't./

-------------------------------------------------

A/N - This chapter has a couple of awkward seeming parts, but I needed to get the info in there or I'm sure that someone would have said 'hang on a minute...'. I'm looking forward to the next couple of chapters though. Stuff actually happens and I'm anticipating that they won't need a huge amount of editing.

Also, NaNoWriMo is upon us once again. I have my plot all ready to go and I'm going to give it my best shot. I said I was going to go for 100K this year, but I'm wondering whether I can actually do it... I managed 83.5k last year so we'll see.

I'm also intending to get the next chapter of Cursed out before the start of NaNo. But if I don't, it won't be December before I get the next chapter out. Promise!
