"We're here with books!" Lizzy cried aloud as she and Mrs. Wood walked into Yugi and Joey's apartment. "Also, a few other people are here."

"Why do we need books?" Yusei asked as he stepped aside from the living room table.

"I'm not sure yet but Mama needs it for something."

"Actually I need it," Ishizu clarified as she stepped into the apartment. "One of the books has information that could solve a problem we're dealing with."

"Ishizu?!" Joey gasped aloud. "How did you get to this side of the world so fast? I know it was probably a plane but that was still quick!"

"Joey..." The woman was in shock that he was here. She glanced at Atem and said, "The Pharaoh is here as well. Perhaps that's the reason why Odion is here!"

"They guy that's been walking in circles around this area, right?" Lizzy said to her. "Why is he doing that anyway?"

"When he and I went to Cairo to find your mother, we ran into Bakura at the museum," Ishizu explained, going towards the books that Lizzy and Mrs. Wood brought and set down on the living room table. "Bakura led a growing army of mummies towards us and Odion and challenged him to a duel, in order for the two of us to escape."

"So we can assume that he lost then, right?" Yusei brought up.

"Unfortunately yes, it might as well be the case. But I think the reason why he's here is because the Pharaoh's aura is around here."

"Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah, he's right here," Jaden stated, pointing at Atem. "So Odion's looking for him? All because of Bakura?"

"That's how it's always been," Atem said with a sigh. "Even for this many years, Bakura won't rest until he takes me down."

"Takes me down? I don't get it." Yusei made the cut throat sign with his finger on his neck and immediately Jaden understood it. "Oh....but how can Bakura sense Atem? They're in different countries!"

"The Millennium items are all connected," Ishizu said. "It would make sense that one could figure out where the other is with the items in hand."

"So if Odion is out there and you're right here," Joey began while raising his eyebrow, "where's your brother Marik?"

"He thought it would be wiser to stay out of the conflict after Bakura took the Millennium Ring from us. He is back in Egypt."

"Does he have the Millennium Rod too?"

"...Yes, he does."

"Is there a chance that he would go crazy again and come straight for our buddy?"

"I can't be certain but it's better for it to be still in Egypt, both of them. But that's besides the point. Lizzy, do you know which part of these three books have the ceremonial duel in it?"

"Well, I could check," Lizzy replied, a bit unsure. "I've only gone through the first book and a third of the second one. It takes some time for me to interpret it, because of work and other things. I'm sorry."

"That's okay," Mrs. Wood smiled softly. "How much time would you need?"

"Uninterrupted?...a few hours, maybe."

"Well, you better make that snappy," Felicia said to the group, looking out of the window and seeing Odion had stopped moving.

That's the end of the chapter part! Thanks for reading and look forward to the next chapter part. See you then! :)
