Ryou POV:

"No!"

"But Ryou we-"

"My patient is already getting thin Yami! And I suggest you keep your mouth shut or I'll do the shutting for you."

Yami glare at me as I also glare back at him.

"Yami. Please listen to Ryou. All he want is to make sure that you are safe. You don't have to be involved in this. We can save Yugi, so please wait here until we come back."

"He's right, Pharaoh. We weren't even part of this in the beginning. It's best if you to just step down."

Both Joey and Bakura supported me as I watch Yami next action. He only balled his hand into a fist before closing his eyes and breath in then breath out slowly. He turns around to open the door on the other side. But not before he turn around slightly and said, "Be careful."

I nodded as Yami closed the door. Leaving me and the rest alone.

I turn to Bakura and at Marik and said, "As I have said. All of you, except for my friends, are going after Yugi. Stay here and don't try to cause trouble while we're out."

"Fine~"

I headed towards the door and open it. Knowing full well that Joey and Malik are following my lead.

'You better be okay, Yugi.'

Yugi POV:

'Huh?.....What....happen?' I groaned. Feeling like something had kicked me in the head 5 times or so. I try to get up, but yelp when a small shock course through me. I concentrated my mind to clear up and to check out where I am. It looked like I am inside a storeroom. Crates stake up on both sides of the corners while I lay in the center of the room. The room is icy blue, and when I breathe out; I can see my own breath came out as a fog.

'Is this some sort of prison?'

"Ah, I see that you are awake."

I swiftly turn my head towards the direction of the one that had spoken and got a clear image of a bulky man wearing dark sunglasses.

I narrowed my eyes and demanded, "Who are you?"

The bulky man was sitting on one of the crates before taking off his sunglasses so that I can see his face.

"My name is Rafael Archangels."

'Arch....angel?'

"Rafael Archangels. A pleasure to meet your acquaintance."

"Likewise, Mr. Yugi Mutou."

I looked up but then realized that both my arms and legs are bounded together. I cursed my head and replied, "You wouldn't mind if you could kindly release me, Mr. Archangels?"

"Unfortunately, no."

"Why?"

"The boss want to keep you here until he is ready to finally meet you once more."

"Hmmmmm....so I have met him. Mind if you could give me a clue to who he is?"

"No can do, Mr. Mutou. He is expecting you anytime now. So try to stay still and behave."

'I'm not a child, idiot.'

I frowned at my bodyguard who just crossed his arms and silently stare at me. I sigh.

'I have to find a way to get out of here!'

______________________________

The agencies are now at Noah's mansion as they all got out of their own vehicles and started taking out their gadgets and weapons.

"Where to Ryou?"

Ryou took out his tracker, before turning it on. It beeps to indicate the location of where their leader is within the mansion.

"Malik, could you get a whole scan around the place so that we can have a clear shot of its outline?"

"Roger that."

Malik opens his bag to take out four long staffs before setting them up around the corners of the mansion.

"Activate, scanning."

Malik pushed on a green button as the staffs lit up in neon green before is expanded to cover up ever inches of the mansion. There was another beep, which showed that its finish.

"Scanning complete."

The image was then sent to Ryou's laptop as Ryou typed something up before finally got a map of it from the inside.

Ryou look around inside the building before spotting something unusual.

"Guys."

Both Malik and Joey came up to Ryou before he turns the laptop around for them to see.

"What's that....?" Joey pointed out.

"It looks like......"

"A person." Ryou finished. Closing his laptop, he put it back inside his bag before taking out his gun.

"And it looked like he's unconscious. Let's go and check it out."

Malik and Joey nodded before putting on their mask. Luckily, the mansion was abandon and no one wouldn't dare get passed it because there was some strange rumor about a family being murdered and no one, not even the police, knew what happen to the rich family. It was a mystery that no one had yet to solve its case.

Ryou took the left while both Joey and Malik to the right side of the door. Ryou mouthed the count before they forced the door open and hold out their guns. A body was laid out beneath the stairs before Ryou slowly started to walk towards him. With ever steps he take, it became clear to Ryou of who that unconscious person is. Ryou gasped.

"Yugi?"

Meanwhile.......

Yami was in the guest room. Laying down on his bed as he replays the memories of what had happened so far when he first met the RedHanded Organization.

'This feeling........why does it feel like something unpleasant is going to happen?'

There was a knock on the door before Yami said, "Come in."

Bakura came in with his right hand on his hip as he noticed Yami on the bed. Bakura sigh before he irritatedly said, "Are you going to just lie there and not eat anything? Or do you want Marik to eat your late lunch?"

"I'm not hungry."

Bakura twitched his eyes at the dazed look that is implanted in the Pharaoh's eyes.

"Oh~ I see."

"What?"

Bakura gave him a small smirk before declaring, "You're thinking about that little shrimp. Are ya, Pharaoh."

Yami narrowed his eyes and just turn away from him. He could hear the snicker coming right out of the Thief's mouth before Yami threw his pillow at him.

"Shut up."

This caused Bakura to laugh a little harder until he calmed down.

"So. What's the plan?"

"The plan?" Yami looked up curiously at Bakura. Bakura rolled his eyes before holding out tendency at the keys that he was able to steal without Ryou noticing.

"Since when were you able to steal his keys?"

"While you were arguing with him."

He threw the keys up into the air before he snatched it back.

"Now let's go save your boyfriend."

"He's not my boyfriend!"

Bakura ignored Yami and was about to walk out until......

"AHHHHH!"

Bakura jerked back when he saw Marik upside down in front of the entrance.

"You're so mean, Kura! When were you going to invite me on this secret mission!? Huh~"

'More like, never.' 😓😠

"Just shut up."

"Hey!"

Yami smirked as he watches his friends bicker before he took the keys out from Bakura's hand and began walking.

"Hey!" Both Bakura and Marik shouted.

"Hurry up! The longer you guys fight; the longer we'll miss the action!"

Both Bakura and Marik paused there. Considering Yami's words before catching up to him. Yami smirked.

'This is going to be interesting.'

Yugi POV:

I began to shiver as the AC within the room seems to increased faster than I had expected.

"Don't worry. You won't die."

"Then what's with the AC pulling up in full volume?"

Rafael didn't say anything. He just sits there without a slight shiver in sight.

I continue to lay there on the spot. Trying to think of a plan to get myself free. While I was thinking, a memory suddenly shot through my mind. I gasped quietly as I turn towards Rafael with a surprise and sad look.

"What?"

"Nothing."

I dropped my gaze and began searching through my mind for any other information that relates to the previous information that I have just found earlier.

"You seem to realize something. "

"Yes."

"Care to share?"

I shrugged.

"Not unless you tell me who is your boss."

Rafael was about to speak until....

"Well well well. Look at what we have here."

I gasped.

'That voice!'

Suddenly, a flat TV screen came out of the wall and projected an image of a man that was 'supposed' to be arrested 5 years ago.

"Gozaburo Kaiba. How did you-?"

I was cut off as he laughed at my confusion and shock.

"It is wonderful to finally meet you, Yugi Mutou. I still remember the time when you help that pesky step-son of mine and ruined my goal as the CEO of MY company."

"So that's it. It's revenge that you want."

"Precisely. However, my revenge is not the only reason that I have against Seto."

"What?!"

With an accusing finger, he pointed at me and shouted, "It's you and your cursive brother, Heba!"

_______________________________

Yugi POV:

My body mentally shut down as I tried to comprehend of what that man had just said.

"I-I...have a brother." It didn't come out as a question. The truth that I have been trying to proof has been answered.

'Heba is my brother.' I couldn't contain how happy I am. Tears almost close to leaking out of my eyes until it was destroyed by that wretched voice who dared hide my true brother away from me all those years ago.

"Yes, Heba Mutou is your older twin brother."

"How do you know about this? Why and how is he here? working with a man that have done nothing but commit crimes for his own selfish needs!"

"HAHA! All the answers will be revealed in due time. But right now, I have to destroy some of the intruders that were able to pass through my territory."

"Wait!" Rafael shouted.

"What about the deal? You said that you would tell me the truth behind the death of my family after we capture Yugi Mutou."

"Aww~ Yes. About that." He paused a bit then smirked.

"I lied."

Rafael looked at Gozaburo in horror but soon turn to anger.

"Y-You...YOU LIED!?"

Rafael was about to shout at him again, but the screen turned off before he could finish.

"Damn it! He tricked me."

There was a buzzing sound as Rafael seem to recognize it because he quickly stood up and ran to the door that was in the room and tried to open it.

"Shit! He locked it." I watch as he shook in anger as he slowly slide down and cried.

"I thought......that I would finally learn the truth. Damn it!"

"What truth?"

I questioned.

I waited until he finally stop crying and stood up. He walked up towards me as his shadow over heightened me. I have to look up to see him clearly as he looks down at me in sadness. My eyes show cautious and curiosity, but for some reason, he just smiled. He kneel down and began to unbind my hold.

"That look within your eyes. For some reason.....I have seen it before. So full of innocent."

"What do you mean?"

I feel the ropes loosen as he began to work on the ropes that are tied to my legs.

"I don't know. I lost my memory at the time when my family died on a cruise ship when we were celebrating my birthday. At that time, Gozaburo Kaiba found me and suggested for me to join him."

"But there's a catch. Isn't there."

"Yes. In return for my services to him, he will tell me who sabotaged my family ship."

"Why would you think that the ship is sabotaged?"

"The ship was destroyed by a tidal wave when I was 7 years old. Hence, the year when my parents held a birthday party for me. However, a sudden tidal wave appeared our of nowhere. There was never a tidal wave in Japan so I was really suspicious. I believe it was never a mere coincidence for a tidal wave to appear and destroyed my family's ship. My siblings were on board that ship as well."

It took me a few second to get all of the pieces together. I 'hmm' in understanding then said, "I understand now. Because there will always be one truth."

"What?"

I looked up at him determinedly and in anger.

"I know who attacked your family's ship all those years ago."

"Y-You do?"

I nodded, "Yes."

"Who is it?"

I narrowed my eyes.

"The man who want to wipe out the Archangels family. The man that tried to destroy Seto companies in order to gain accessed to the government secret weapon commission and why he finally returned again after all those years ago. It all made sense now."

"Wait a minute! You don't mean-"

"Yes. The person that killed your family and planned all of this is Gozaburo himself."
