Bakura was wondering why the other chibi was still following him. I mean, he didn’t really even know his name. But, he was gonna find out.

“What ‘oor name?” Bakura stopped and turned around to question the other chibi. Malik blinked.

“Malwik” Malik told him, then asked the same question to the chibi “What ‘oor name?”

“Bakuwa” Bakura told him, then turned back around and started foreword again. It wasn’t long ‘till he got to a street. He prepared to cross it. The two chibis took a few steps foreword, then they heard a loud noise, and looked toward it. This huge monster-looking thing was heading strait for them! The Chibis were frozen out of fear, their eyes wide. When suddenly, they felt like they were in the air.

Bakura looked up at the blonde-haired boy that had just picked them up. He looked oddly familiar, like he should know him from somewhere... He turned to face another strangely familiar person. Bakura realized he was getting wet again by the rain, but it didn’t really matter. As the person holding them put his jacket around them, one thought ran through Bakura’s mind: Who were these people?

~~~~~~~~~**~~~~~~~~~

“So, uh... Where exactly are we headed?” Tristan asked his friend.

“First we gotta stop at my place to drop off da stuff Serenity wanted me to get, then we’ll go to Yug’s an’ see if he knows what goin’ on, an’ see if da others are there.” Joey told him, without looking back at him.

“Ah, I see... Hey, ya think Serenity’ll want to come with us?” Tristan asked, hopeful.

“Eh, we’ll see... Only if she wants to come, maybe. She’s still recoverin’ from the surgery, ya know.” Joey said. Tristan sighed.

“Yeah, I know. But that was several months ago that she was released.” Tristan reminded him. That being the end of the conversation, since they had reached Joey’s house.

~~~~~~~~~**~~~~~~~~~

“‘Ey, sis, I’m back!” Joey called into a seemingly empty house. Serenity walked out from the kitchen, then jumped at seeing the cihibs.

“Umm...? What happened?” She asked.

“Well, ya see, I don’t know. I was just gonna go over to Yug’s and see what’s up. ‘Cause I figure that’s where the others’ll be.” Joey informed her. Serenity nodded.

“Well, I love to go with you guys to find out what’s going on, but I have a lot of homework... Maybe when I’m through I’ll stop by, okay? Now get going you two!” Serenity shooed them away, after taking the items Joey had given to Tristan.

~~**~~

“Okay, so now we head to Yugi’s, right?” Tristan asked as they headed out again.

“Yep. Hey, uh... Would you mind holding Bakura? He’s getting restless...” Joey said, handing Bakura to him. The rain was starting to clear, but it was still drizzling some. Malik sneezed.

“Uh...Okay...” Tristan complied, and wrapped his jacket around Bakura as well. Bakura looked up at him threateningly then tried to bite his arm. Tristan yelped, but didn’t let the little chibi go. Instead, he tightened his grip.

“Yer not gonna escape that easily.” Tristan told the chibi, giving him what he hoped was a stern glare. Bakura just looked up and him, and pouted. Joey laughed.

“He givin’ you a hard time?” Tristan then glared at Joey, whom laughed again, and Malik sneezed again. “Hey, we better hurry, I think Maliks getting sick. He’s shivering...” Joey stated, just as the Game Shop came in sight. They ran to it and rang the doorbell, waiting impatiently, but they didn’t have to wait for long. The door soon opened.

~~**

Yugi ran up to the door and opened it, taken a little aback at who stood there.

“Joey! Tristan! What happened? Where did you find them?” Yugi asked, stepping aside to let them in. At that moment Marik and Ryou ran in. Well, Ryou more staggered in.

“Malik! Bakura! What happened to them?” Marik asked now, noting Malik looked really out of it.

“Well...Uh, you see, they almost got hit by a car, and I think Malik might be catching a cold.” Joey told them flatly.

“They almost got hit by a car?!” Ryou wailed, grabbing Bakura from Tristan. Marik had already taken Malik from Joey.

“Eh heh, yeah, but I got’em before it was too late. They’re fine now, don’t worry!” Joey tried. Then told them how it happened.

“Yeah, but...If you had just been a second later...” Ryou couldn’t finish. Marik sighed.

“Well, what is in the past, is in the past. They are safe now, and I thank you. Now I must tend to Malik’s cold.” Marik said, excusing himself.

“Now, would you mind explaining what’s goin’ on?” Joey asked, looking toward Ryou and Yugi, whom a chibi Yami was standing next to.

“We don’t really know at this point, Chihuahua, but I plan to find out.” Seto stated, appearing from the doorway. Joey glared at him.

“What’s he doin’ here?” Joey asked, then was answered as a chibi Mokuba walked up next to Seto. Joey blinked.

“So...It’s not just the yamis?! Wha...?” Joey again asked.

“We were thinking the same, Joey. We really don’t know how this happened or why it happened, we just know that it did.” Yugi informed him.

“It’s getting late, Mokuba and I are going home. Come, Mokuba.” Seto ordered, walking through the door, seeing that the rain had finally halted for now.

“Yeah, it is getting kinda late... If you guys want, you can stay here. My Grandpa went on a dig in Egypt, so it would just be Yami and I here.” Yugi offered.

“Alright, I can stay. My dad’s gone right now, anyway.” Ryou told them as Marik reentered with Malik.

“I will stay as well.” He told them.

“Might as well.” Tristan said.

“I’ll call Serenity to see if it’s okay, but I’ll stay too.” Joey said, walking over to the phone.

“How is he?” Yugi asked Marik.

“He’ll be alright, he just need’s some medicine and some rest.” Marik informed him, just as Joey hung up the phone. He turned to the others.

“She said it’s okay. And she said she’ll stop by tomorrow morning, to help with the chibis.”

After agreeing on the sleeping arguments, Ryou and Bakura in Grandpa’s room, Yugi and Yami in Yugi’s room, Tristan on the couch and Joey on a pull out bed, they set off to bed.

~~ The next Morning ~~

Yugi was awoken by the sound of a telephone ringing. He snatched it up before it could awaken Yami or and one else.

“Hello?”

“Hello, Yugi? This is Velma, somethin’ awful has happened to Mr. Kaiba! Please come right away!” She told him, as he heard a kid’s laugh in the background.

“Uh, sure. I’ll get my friends, and we’ll be there soon!” He told here, hanging the phone up, wondering what it could be this time...

NOTE: I’m sorry for taking so long to update, but it’ll get harder for me to update now, so taking this long or longer might be common...Once again, I apologize, and I’ll try my best to update faster. That’s all...Cya later!
