The two guards looked away guiltily. "Believe me, we would do something if we could, but... there's nothing we can do," the closest one muttered, "this happens to her every day, no matter what."

Meanwhile, as Barnaby and Angie rushed into the corridor, the specter over Anna had barred its teeth in a snarl and turned its face toward Barnaby, or more precisely, the Wicked God inhabiting his body. Enraged, it screeched ineffectually as they disappeared from view.

"SLOOF DEHCTERW, EM MORF EELF TONNAC UOY! UOY NEVE TON, REWOP YM EPACSE LLAHS GNIHTON, DNE EHT NI! DOG ERUT A MA I!"

Almost pausing as he sped in their direction, Blake boggled at the sight of Angie and Barnaby outside of the place where he had ordered them to be left. "What?" Ignoring them for the moment, he threw open the door to the waiting room.

"AH! NRUTER DLUOW UOY WENK I! WON-!"

"You imbeciles!" the mastermind shouted, "You weren't supposed to let them leave!" Suddenly, he noticed the figure of his sister on the floor.

"Anna...?" he muttered, eyes widening, "What are you doing here?"

"Big brother?" Anna croaked weakly, managing to crack her eyes open.

In a strange echo, the jackal-thing's eyes opened almost comically wide.

"ON HOOOOOOO. UOY TON!"

Dreadroot's silhouette watched intently. "More of this 'love,' I take it. For the record, I was super good and helpful, and totally stood up to that jerk."

He concentrated on Barnaby. It's all clear, that thing doesn't seem too eager to stick around. Also, that guy you wanted to see is here.

"Sir, yes, sir!" replied Buddy, mockingly. After scrawling his barely legible signature on the work contract, he turned to the secretary. "Is he always wound this tight or is this a special occasion?"

Barnaby walked back into the room, motioning for Angela to follow. "Ah, I should have figured you'd be behind this. Why did you need to see us, exactly? Throwing your own brand of trouble into the pot?"

Blatantly ignoring his pair of 'guests' for the moment, Blake clenched his fists, his normally cool demeanor breaking as an emotion very familiar to the others flashed briefly through his eyes.

Self-loathing.

As the albino crouched down to embrace his sister, there was a sudden flash of light, and a translucent outline materialized behind him. Though it was difficult to see, two things were clear: It had two very prominent dove-like wings, and it was enormous.

With a small motion of the 'angel's hand, there was a sound like a blade whisting through the air, and the jackal-thing was torn in half. Writhing, the smoky abomination began to curl in on itself in a vortex, becoming smaller and smaller before fading from view entirely.

"UOY NMAD! RRRRRRRRREEEEEEWWWWOOOOOP LLA MA I-"

Another flash of light, and the transparent, winged being disappeared as well.

What was that? I mean, seriously, what the hell was that?

Barnaby just gazed on quietly. That would be the "angel," I suppose.

No, there is no room in my worldview for anything like that. It cannot exist.

Angela smiled.

"Hush your incorporeal mouth, oh Dread Root of All Evil," she teased. "I've felt something like this before... Just briefly... when I first put Shinato's deck together. That might mean something."

Dreadroot pointed a finger at her as he began to disappear. "Don't gimme that lip of yours. You're still around because I find you amusing."

He disappeared completely. Shown up by a mortal again. Ugh, I suppose you intend to just forget all about my contributions again.

You were a great help, Dreadroot. If you weren't there, she could have died while we were all distracted.

"Is there anything we can do to help?"

"Anna?" Blake whispered, staring worriedly at her face, "Anna!" Briefly, he worried that she might have actually died, but then he noticed the gentle rise and fall of her chest. She had fallen asleep from exhaustion. He smiled a little, but then his brain registered Barnaby's question.

Picking Anna up, he turned around to face the Wicked God holders, face expressionless. "No," he answered flatly, "there's not."

After half a beat, he eyed the guards still standing at the door. "What are you doing?" he seethed, glaring coldly at them, "Take them to their room. I will escort Kaiba myself."

Buddy felt the burst of power even though it had happened in another part of the building. Things just got complicated... he thought to himself. However, what was truly unnerving was the silent secretary. "Does Blake not allow his employees the right to free speech?" asked the hacker, nervously.

Screw it. One more post, 'cause I don't want to miss this chance.

Barnaby spoke up. "Is it alright if Ms. Rath and I share a room? I kind of want to look after her."

He turned to her. "If it's alright with you. You could get a taste of what it'll be like to live with me."

Finally some recognition around here. I expect to get my fair share from now on.

"No, Mr. Alo, I just don't like you," Janice answered bluntly, adjusting her glasses, "However, I have been order to give you a tour, so follow me."


Blake threw Barnaby a look that positively screamed, are you an idiot?. "Obviously, I already assumed that you and Rath would be sharing a room, Loathless. That would be why I used room, singular, instead of rooms, plural."

He turned to the guards, irate. "Get on with it."

Since my grandmother just loves asking me to do chores when I'm trying to sleep, I might as well post again.

Once at their room, Barnaby removed his shirt and cleaned his wounds at the sink, just to show Angela that there was nothing to worry about.

"See? Not even that deep. If I can keep them clean, They should heal without stitches."

Tearing up his undershirt he made a crude bandage to wrap around his affected shoulder, then flopped (stupidly, in retrospect) down on the bed. "If it's all the same to you, I'll be taking the bed closer to the door," he said, tilting his head up to give her a smile.

"It's your call if you want to take the other bed, or if you'd feel 'safer' over here with me."

Oh, yeah. Real noble. I can see you have her best interests at heart.

Janice twitched, about to retort, but then thought better of it. Not worth it.

Instead, she droned on about the sights as she guided her charge through the halls.

"On your left, you will see the main development labs, where all our new technology is developed for the purpose of furthering our criminal empire. On your right, observe our in-house power plant, fueled entirely by the Earth's internal heat..."


"So," Blake said, still carrying a sleeping Anna and staying carefully nonchalant, "this will be your room."

To call it merely a room was an understatement. It was more like a high-scale apartment, including a bathroom, kitchenette, a large living space, and all the other bells and whistles. And over the edge of the apartment's balcony, past nigh-unbreakable glass, and many, many feet below was... a massive pool of lava.

"Loathless and Rath have similar quarters. As you may have already guessed, these secondary headquarters of mine are located within the volcanic crater."

Finished with the brief explanation, Blake waited for Mokuba's reaction. There were a few more things they needed to discuss...

Edited my post in the discussion thread with something new.

"Look, Cyrus..." Blair started, rubbing her head from the encroaching headache, "What good would it do to bring Jaden close to Avatar, especially in his condition? If you need to get info from him, getting him off the island probably is the best idea. Saturday did get to see Saturn when he got off the island, after all. But in all honesty, I'd rather go face to face with Zaraki than leave Avatar alone with Jaden."

"Don't wanna sleep alone, huh?" Angela teased.

She paused for a moment to consider.

"I'll be taking the other bed... I kind of toss and turn in my sleep, and you've still got a few bruises. But mostly I just don't want to be in the same bed as you while Dreadroot's in the room."

"I understand," Barnaby said, laying his head back onto the pillow and closing his eyes. "Oh, and if you hear me get up in the middle of the night, Dreadroot does that sometimes. Do me a favor and don't let him leave the room. I don't need him getting us all in trouble over a grudge."

So that's what this was really about? Here I thought you were just a horndog. You were hoping her presence could keep me out of your head.

It's not like I can lie to you or anything, but can you blame me? I've had nightmares for the past month. If I don't get a good sleep at some point, I'm going to crack.

Maybe you need to crack. Here I've been hoping that your feelings for her would be useful to me, but she's only been holding you back.

And we've been holding Eraser back, together. I think it's worth surrendering a few of your freedoms to keep Eraser out of the game completely.

Maybe, but I need to have some fun occasionally.

Love is fun. If you're going to live through me, maybe you should develop a taste for the fairer side of life. You just might like it.

I could kill her while you sleep!

Don't you ever threaten her!

Then shape up! I've been spoiling you this whole time, and you've given me precious little in return. If you don't start showing some progress soon, I'm gonna have to start using some negative reinforcement, understand?

"Goodnight, Angela," Barnaby said, trying to end the conversation. "I love you."

"He won't be alone; I'll be right next to him. I do have some degree of control over Avatar; I can force him to stop."

Yeah, but that'd probably give you three heart attacks and set me free.

Cyrus took off his headphones. He was a little sick of Blair's concerns, and this was important.

So he's still in the infirmary?

Yeah. Don't ask what his aura-ish is. You REALLY don't want to know.

Cyrus walked up to the infirmary, unlocked it, and walked inside.

So if you possess me, I can enter Jaden's mind?

Yeah, but I have complete and utter control over your body.

Do it.

Avatar materialized in his ball form, and it moved to cover Cyrus's head, entering his nose, mouth, and ears; a small white ball evacuated through his mouth as the darkness moved in.

"Cyrus" took a step back...

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH! MY EYES, MY EYES! OH GOD, MY EYES!

Sorry, Avatar, but I don't trust you inside Jaden's head. The pain will keep you occupied for long enough.

The ball of light floated to Jaden and entered his open mouth.

Thought he was gonna do something nasty to Jaden via Avatar? Wrong. :P BTW, the entire island probably feels some pain from Avatar's mental scream. Cyrus's eyes hurt a LOT.

Cyrus entered Jaden's mind, and Avatar's screams faded from his mind; he was on a different plane of existance, or something, so the sound didn't reach him.

The ball of light grew bigger and humanoid, before Cyrus materialized in his view of himself- it was pretty accurate, too, for a blind person. Then he opened his eyes for the first time... and stood there dumbstuck for what must have been hours, it seemed.

"This... this... this is... this is amazing," he breathed. He was in a hallway; there were two doors, one to the left of him and one to the right. He went to the one on the left first... and it was covered, from floor to ceiling, with Duel Monster cards and a few spirits.

"I-is Jaden here?" Cyrus asked a mole.

"He's across the hall right now. He and Yubel have been talking a lot since his body konked out."

"O-okay," Cyrus said, not expecting the mole to... well, he wasn't sure. Did everyone's mouth move like that?

Cyrus closed the door and turned to the other one. He grasped the handle, turned, and opened it...

Inside was a world of shadows, with no ground, only floating rocks and platforms. A vertical eye appeared before him.

"Come in," a voice that was half-male, half-female said. "Jaden wants to talk to you."

Hey look!. Yu-Gi-Oh meets wrasslin'!
