Pegasus ran out the front door to see ten other Neo Ghouls waiting. He raised his gun and fired at one of them, the target fell to the floor and he fired at another. Shots rang out across the front garden as Pegasus fired at them, running for the side gate. Why have they come? He wondered as he dived through the side gate and swung it shut. He looked up to Liviana’s balcony just as she and Bakura jumped, both of them falling towards the pool and landing with a splash in the dark water. The Neo Ghouls up stairs followed as Liviana climbed out of the pool, receiving a helping shove from Bakura.
“Liviana! Over here quickly!” Pegasus shouted as she got to her feet. Liviana ran to him as Bakura turned and punched one of the Ghouls in the face. The ghoul fell back as he heaved himself out of the pool and ran for the gate. Liviana reached her brother as Bakura slipped and fell back into the pool. “Bakura!” Liviana cried. Pegasus looked in horror as Bakura, floating face down in the water, was pushed under by one of the ghouls. Pegasus handed the gun to Liviana and ran to the poolside; what can I use as a weapon? He wondered looking around briefly before diving in and punching the ghoul holding Bakura in the face. The second ghoul was behind him and stabbed with a knife as Pegasus turned and deflected the blow, using the heel of his hand to break the ghoul’s nose. “Liviana, block the gate!” Pegasus shouted as he pulled Bakura, whose head was bleeding, to the edge of the pool and heaved him out. Liviana pulled a sun bed to the gate and used the head to block the gate handle before running to Bakura’s side. Pegasus tested his pulse, “Damn.” He hissed as he began pushing on Bakura’s chest. Liviana knelt beside Bakura and cried as she looked at his lifeless body and Pegasus continued to push Bakura’s chest. Pegasus heard a bang on the gate and looked up to see a Ghoul aim a gun at Liviana and fire. The bullet passed through her chest and rolled across the pool tiles. “Liviana!” Pegasus cried as he crawled round to his sister. Looking at the gate he saw that the Neo Ghoul had gone and as he listened he heard no movement.“How about this one?” Serenity asked as she held up a stronger card. It was Dunames Dark Witch, a girl who looked a little like Tea wearing a short white dress and knee high boots with large wings. She had eighteen hundred attack points and would easily beat his monster. “That’s more like it Serenity, you’re really getting the hang of it now.” Marik replied as he removed his card from the playing field and took off two hundred life points from the 3500 he had. Serenity brightened and turned over her magic card, Silver Bow and Arrow, which raised her monster’s attack by three hundred. “Marik, I didn’t attack yet, I wanted to boost the attack first.” She said. Marik looked at her cards in surprise and took off a further three hundred. “You really are getting the hang of it.” He exclaimed. Serenity closed her eyes and smiled sweetly, I love it when she does that. Marik thought as she scrunched up her nose a little. Marik sighed as he got off the bed and looked out of the window. Since he had started going out with Serenity and teaching her to duel he hadn’t smoked any cigarettes…or anything else and he felt better than ever. “Are you ok?” Serenity asked. Marik smiled and looked at her before looking down to the streets below. “Never better.” He replied. The streets were deserted; it was quite late so many people must have been asleep by then. What’s that? Marik wondered as he saw something move…it was getting closer, and it wasn’t alone either. Marik squinted and saw a small army of cloaked figures that he would have known anywhere, Neo Ghouls, and they were heading towards the shop, “Serenity! Shut off the light and get under the bed!” he ordered as he closed and locked the window and pulled the curtains. When he turned to Serenity she was out of sight and the light was off. He reached down beside his side of the bed and grabbed the millennium rod before leaving the bedroom and heading for Yugi’s room. “Pharaoh!” he hissed as he opened the door. When he opened it he saw Yami sitting up in the bed, already dressed, though that wasn’t unusual. Yugi often went to bed late and may have only just gone into the room. “Something is coming.” He said. Marik nodded as Yami stood and headed for the door. What is it pharaoh? Yugi asked from the back of his mind, I don’t know Yugi, but whatever it is can’t be good. Yami replied. As they reached the living room there was a crash downstairs in the shop. “They’re here…Neo Ghouls.” Marik replied to the questioning look on Yami’s face. Neo Ghouls? What do they want? Yugi wondered, I don’t know Yugi; perhaps it is the millennium puzzle. he replied. There were footsteps heading towards them up the stairs. “Hide, quickly!” Marik hissed in the darkness of the living room. Yami nodded and crouched in front of the sofa while Marik stepped into a closet with gaps in the door like shutters so he could see out. Marik listened but heard nothing, he knew they were in the shop but the door to the flat hadn’t opened yet…what’s taking them so long? Marik wondered nervously as he strained his ears… what’s that smell? Marik sniffed and almost choked, looking through the gaps in the door he could see the room filling with smoke. He saw Yami stand up and head for the closet, coughing as he got closer, “Marik, it’s a fire.” He choked. Marik couldn’t reply from coughing, he could feel the heat radiating through the walls, there was no way out, the windows were too high and the door was blocked by fire. Shit, we’re trapped! Marik cursed as Yami fainted. Marik coughed and choked as he stepped out of the closet and collapsed beside Yami, seeing the flames roaring in the doorway before his eyes closed.
Kaiba woke up when he heard her scream, flung the covers of his bed back and stumbled through the darkness, catching the blue silk shirt on the door handle as he went, cursing as the shirt ripped he continued to run down the hall. “Seto, what’s going on?” Mokuba asked in alarm as Kaiba passed him in the hall, “Go back to your room.” Kaiba ordered without answering the question. He looked through the darkness and saw a figure running towards him, it was Tea but something was wrong, she had her arms out in front of her to guide her as she ran and looked terrified. As she made contact with Kaiba’s shoulders she screamed, “It’s me, it’s ok.” Kaiba coaxed as he held her arms, she wasn’t wearing the millennium necklace, though he could see it in her nightshirt pocket. He pulled it from the pocket and fastened it quickly round her neck, “Kaiba, they’re after me, they’re here,” Tea cried as she tried to continue down the hall, Kaiba stopped her by the arm as she passed, “Who? What are you talking about?” Kaiba asked. The perimeter alarm would have gone off if anyone had broken into the grounds of the mansion, it was impossible for a Neo Ghoul to be in the mansion. Tea screamed as she looked over Kaiba’s shoulder and as he turned he saw the cloaked figure running towards them with an upraised sword. Kaiba looked to the wall where there was a coat of arms hanging with two swords in it. He grabbed a sword and pulled it free, holding it defensively as the ghoul got closer. “Kaiba, no!” Tea cried as he and the ghoul fought and Kaiba swung the sword skilfully as the ghoul tried to fend him off. Preoccupied with the fight and with the swords whistling Kaiba barely heard the gunshot. “Tea!” Mokuba cried. Kaiba took his attention away from the fight and turned to see Tea sprawled on the carpet; if she was bleeding he couldn’t see it on the dark red carpet. Kaiba turned back to his opponent to find the he had fled; and the mansion was filled with an eerie silence as Kaiba knelt beside Tea’s body.
“Do you hear something?” Joey asked as he and Mai walked past an alleyway. Mai stopped and looked around, listening intently. She waited and suddenly heard a sharp intake of breath somewhere in the alley, “Yes, it’s coming from down there,” she replied as she turned away from the light of the empty street with it’s closed shops and dark buildings and looked down the cluttered alley. “Wait here.” Joey ordered as he raised his duel disc arm, ready to defend himself if he was attacked. Behind him Mai scowled and followed him, “Who do you think you are? You can’t order me around.” She replied quietly as she walked by his side. Secretly Joey was glad he didn’t have to go on his own, but he wouldn’t let it show. “Sh.” He hushed as he peered deeper into the shadows. Looking ahead he saw a pile of white linen among the bins and black bags. He crept closer with Mai just behind. As he approached the pile of linen it moved. Joey stopped and put an arm back to signal Mai to stop. He continued forward and looked closer at the pile, it was a man, he had dark skin and a turban; I know him! It’s Shadi! Joey realised as he knelt down. “Shadi…Shadi, are you ok?” Joey asked as he laid a hand on Shadi’s shoulder. Shadi groaned and looked back with his unfocused dark eyes. Joey saw a lot of water on the floor around him, “Oh my god,” Mai gasped as she looked over Joey’s shoulder. Joey took a second look at the water and saw that it wasn’t water at all; it was blood. The floor was soaked in blood, as was the front of the white robes. “Mai, go call an ambulance!” Joey snapped as he looked closely at the front of the robes, where he could see numerous bullet holes, it was as if the shooter had been shooting blindly, there were holes in the arms, shoulders, chest, stomach, legs, everywhere, shit, what a mess! Joey thought as he looked at Shadi. “The…items…take-the-items.” Shadi rasped. Joey looked around the alley in confusion and spotted something gold catch in the limited light from the street. He stood and walked over to it and found a smooth golden object. It was a pole with a ‘T’ on top with a ball on either end, each ball had an eye on it, I know that eye; it’s on Yugi’s puzzle. Joey thought as he held up the millennium scales. Joey looked down again and saw another object; it was gold and looked like a cross with a small square sticking out at the bottom, the millennium key! Joey realised as he looked at it closely. “Okay Shadi, an ambulance is on the way, just hold on.” Joey encouraged as he knelt by his side. “It is-too late…for me…protect-the-items.” He ordered. Joey knelt lower as Shadi closed his eyes, “Hey, stay with me Shadi, who did this to you?” he demanded, “N-neo-ghouls.” Shadi choked in reply. Suddenly his body lurched and he gasped before lying still. “The ambulance is on its way.” Mai announced as she ran into the alley. Joey reached down a hand and closed Shadi’s blankly staring eyes before standing and turning to Mai. “We were too late.” He replied as he put the millennium key round his neck and put the scales in his belt. Mai sighed and let a single tear roll down her cheek as Joey walked out of the alley staring blankly ahead. “There was nothing you could have-oh no, Yugi!” Mai gasped as she looked across the street where Yugi lived. There was smoke rising from behind the main street where Yugi lived, “Come on, hurry!” Joey shouted as he ran across the street and down the alley. At the end of the alley was a T-junction with the shop opposite, it was on fire and a small crowd was gathered outside, “Serenity!” Joey cried as he ran into the burning building.
“Joey! Over here!” Tristan called from upstairs in the flat. Joey dodged through the flames and fallen beams from the roof and ran up the stairs. Inside the flat was unrecognisable, the flames had consumed Marik’s room from underneath and smoke was thick in the air. “Tristan, where are you?” Joey shouted as he pulled his white and blue T-shirt over his nose and peered into the blackness. “Right in front of you. Duke has already got gramps out and I’m just on my way with Serenity now.” Tristan replied as he stepped into Joey’s line of sight carrying Serenity unconscious in his arms. Joey looked horrified at the sight of his helpless sister and stepped aside as Tristan went by. “Where are Yugi and Marik?” Joey asked. He didn’t catch all of Tristan’s reply, but he thought he heard the word ‘closet.’ Joey stepped over to the closet and saw both Marik and Yami on the floor. “Marik!” Joey shouted as he crouched down. Marik’s eyes were slightly open and he seemed to be moving a little. As Joey crouched Marik reached up and grabbed his shirt, pulling him closer. “Get…the-pharaoh…out.” He wheezed before falling back unconscious to the floor. Joey quickly grabbed Yami and pulled him over his shoulders before crouching and grabbing Marik’s legs and dragging him to the stairs. At the stairs he put Marik in a sitting position and staggered down the stairs with Yami, putting him down at the door and then returned for Marik, who was slumped forward and about to fall down the stairs. “The-pharaoh…” he groaned as Joey pulled him onto his feet and staggered down the stairs with him as the roof collapsed in flames behind them. “He’s fine.” Joey replied to Marik’s continuous groans. Outside there were two ambulances, one containing Serenity and Grandpa while the other contained Yami, and was waiting for Marik. “We’ll take it from here, you’d better come with us.” The paramedics said as they took Marik and ushered Joey towards an ambulance, where Tristan and Duke were waiting, “My sis, let me go with my sis.” Joey begged as they walked him towards Marik’s Ambulance. The paramedic agreed and Joey climbed into the ambulance with his sister, who was half awake by mow. “Marik!” she cried as Joey sat next to her. She looked at him with her watering eyes and Joey felt a great fury building within. How could anyone do this? He wondered in hate and fury. “He’s fine sis, you just rest.” Joey ordered. Serenity sighed in relief before closing her eyes and falling asleep.
“I don’t want excuses! I want answers! I want to know how they got in the grounds and the mansion without any of you seeing them!” Kaiba shouted down the cell phone. Mokuba looked up in fear at his brother, man, I’ve never seen him so angry… Mokuba thought as he watched his brother’s scowling face. Mokuba looked at the closed door of the room where Tea had been taken. It had been over two hours since they had arrived with Tea, “Look, either get me some answers or start looking for a new job!” Kaiba snapped before closing the phone and punching the wall. Mokuba flinched as his brother stood and stared at his fist, still on the wall. Mokuba looked up as a nurse walked out of the room, “Well?” Kaiba demanded as she approached. The nurse looked a little timid as she looked up at Kaiba, whose cobalt eyes bore into her with a fury that could only be matched by the devil himself. “The bullet went through her left shoulder, no real damage was done, but she’s lost a lot of blood. We’re giving her a transfusion now, so she should be fine in a couple of days.” The woman reported. Kaiba nodded and she walked away. Mokuba looked up at his brother and saw him close his eyes and sigh in relief. Looking at his watch Kaiba knelt down with Mokuba, who sat on a chair opposite of Tea’s room. “Mokuba, it’s long gone midnight. You should get some sleep.” Kaiba said. Mokuba stifled a yawn as his brother pulled off his white trench coat, which he had put on over his blue pyjamas. Mokuba stretched out across two chairs and Kaiba draped his coat over him and watched as he closed his eyes and fell asleep. “Kaiba boy!” a familiar and unwelcome voice said in surprise. Kaiba turned to see Pegasus in his usual red velvet suit looking at him in surprise. Kaiba indicated to be quiet and nodded towards Mokuba. Pegasus got the hint and walked closer, “What are you doing here?” Pegasus whispered, as he got closer. Kaiba nodded to Tea’s room where he could hear the continuous beeping from the machine measuring her heartbeat. “Tea was attacked by neo ghouls, they broke into the mansion without tripping one single perimeter alarm, you?” Kaiba asked. Pegasus nodded down the hall where people in critical conditions were taken to be resuscitated. Kaiba almost wished that he hadn’t asked, “My sister, Liviana, she was shot through the chest by a neo ghoul and Bakura was drowned in the pool.” He replied. Kaiba sighed, he wasn’t good at offering comfort, and he wasn’t good with sympathy either. He thought about the ghouls, what are they doing? Why those three? What linked them? He wondered. The ghouls didn’t kill for no reason, there must have been some larger reason for it… “Do you know if they’re?” Kaiba began. Pegasus half smiled as he looked down the corridor, “No…Liviana is being monitored and Bakura is being resuscitated now.” He replied. Pegasus looked at Tea’s door, “What about?” he began, “Shoulder wound, she’ll be fine. She’s having a blood transfusion now.” Kaiba replied. “COLD BLUE! COLD BLUE!” a male cried. Suddenly three nurses and two doctors ran by heading towards the critical ward. Pegasus and Kaiba took off after them to Liviana’s room where the heart-rate machine was letting out a single low beep. “Alright, get the pads.” A doctor ordered as he injected something into her arm. A machine was pulled over from the corner of the room and the doctor took the two pads, “Three, two, one, clear.” The doctor ordered as he gave a shock to Liviana’s chest. Kaiba watched the doctor do this twice more before the heart rate machine gave a beep and showed that Liviana’s heart was beating again. “Thank the gods.” Pegasus muttered as he looked through the window of the door at his sister’s sleeping form. Kaiba turned as he heard footsteps walking up behind, “Kaiba?” Joey asked in disbelief. Kaiba raised a startled eyebrow as he saw Mai, Tristan and Duke walking towards him. Mai scowled suspiciously as Duke and Tristan muttered to each other, “What happened?” Kaiba asked and Joey looked startled for a moment, “There was a fire at the shop. Gramps, Yugi, Marik and Serenity were brought here, that and Shadi was killed in an alley not far from there…you?” Joey asked. Kaiba and Pegasus each told their stories…there has to be something linking these events, but what? Shadi…who is he? Ah! I remember; her was the Egyptian with the turban…how does he link with the others? But we don’t even know if the ghouls were responsible for his death and the fire…lets assume they were. What were they after? They set the shop on fire; so it wasn’t the cards and they didn’t try to kill me so it isn’t money…what could Serenity have of value to them? Nothing…what about the grandfather…nothing but the cards…wait! The millennium items! That’s the only thing that could possibly link the attacks!
