Grandma opened the door to Angela's bedroom. "Oh my," Grandma said as she dropped the tray of bandages she was carrying.
One of the older men walked in behind grandma. He was shocked by the sight infront of him. He bumped grandma on the shoulder than quickly left. Grandma only smiled at the sight infront of her. The room was used as a sapport for a massive creature trying to hide as a human but at this moment no one would believe any of that. Seto was asleep with his face baried on Angela's shoulder in her hair. Angela was collapsed on Seto. The pair seemed to holding each other up. The blood on the bed was the only usually sight. The only sign of Angela's wings were a few black feathers on the floor.
Grandma walked up to Seto. She lightly shock his shoulder and started rubbing his head. "Time to wake up cutie pie," Grandma said.
Seto mummbled under his voice. He did not even notice that his arms naturally moved to sapport Angela as he sat up. "What do you want?" Seto asked in a daze.
"We're going to change her bandages and than you can take her to the lower world. She'l be all yours to care for in a little while," Grandma said.
"But what about her," Seto started to say until he looked around. Angela's wings were gone. "Does that nrmally happen?" Seto asked confused.
"No this quickly. Usually she has to be pretty close to recovered for them to go back in. Some reason you seem to have made wings reced quicker," Grandma teased. She saw Seto looked at the collasped mound of a woman in his arms. "Well come on. Hold her away from you a bit so I can change her bandages. Oh yeah you're clothes are dry now. I'll pack them for you after we change her bandages," Grandma said.
"I'll change after this. Than we'll go home," Seto said as he ran his hand through Angela's hair.
The men prepared the sleds to carry Angela down the hill as fast as they could. Seto was changed in a matter of minutes. Grandma was only able to cover Angela in a blanket. Everything was set to go. Seto walked into the living room. "You ready to ride lover boy? You'll be holding our girl. Make sure she stays in the sled while we fly," the older man said.
"What do you mean fly? And lover boy!?!" Seto shouted. One of the younger men walked by carring Angela in his arms.
"We are going to fly down the mountain to your helicopter from there on it'll be up to you to take care of her," the older man explained a little further.
"Fine,"Seto agreed. He followed the older man out to the sled. The sled now only had a flatbed where Angela was lying and most of the massive dogs all ready to pull it. Seto walked over to the sled.
"Let's go," the older man said. Seto lyied on the sled. He placed Angela's head on his arm, tucked the blanket around her, and grabbed the side of the sled. As soon as Seto had grabbed the sled the older man set the sled into mention. He was not kidding when he said fly. The sled raced down the hill. They quickly passed the village. It was only a few hours until they reached the flat with Seto's helicopter. The trip that took most of one day was condensed. "Get your copter started. Can't waste time now," the older man said as he watched Seto lower Angela's head back onto the sled. "Leave your coat with me." Seto looked at the older man. "We have to change her cover before you go. Angela is the only thing that leaves this mountain," the older man said.
"Fine," Seto said. There was no time to agrue. Seto gave the older man his coat quickly and left to start the chopper.
The older man lifter Angela enough to start wraping the coat around her. "Let the man take care of you. I think you two might make it," the older man said into Angela's ear. He picked her up and slide the blanket off back onto the sled. He lifted Angela up and started to Seto chopper. Seto came around and opened the door on the passanger's side. While the old man started to strap Angela into the chiar Seto was climbing back into the pilot seat. The old man closed the door an dbacked away. The helicopter lifted off the flat and quickly disappeared across the ocean. "May the wind be at your back," the old man said as he started up the mountain again.
"This is Seto Kaiba. I need a medical team outside flight pad when I arrive," Seto said on his head set.
"Yes mister Kaiba," the man answered.
Seto looked at Angela. Her head was leaned back on the seat. Her eyes were closed and her hands folded across her lap. Seto became worried when he noticed her lips were turning blue and there was blood coming through the bandages. He moved his coat over her to try and keep her warm. He placed his hand over where here hands crossed. He lightly wrapped his hand around her's. "We'll make it," Seto said.
Roland walked up to Mokuba. "What is it Roland?" Mokuba asked.
"Mister Kaiba is returning. He should be landing within the next three hours," Roland said.
"What's wrong Roland?" Mokuba asked.
"He called for a medical team to meet him at the landing," Roland said in a disturbed voice.
Yugi and all his school friends were walking home from school when they saw Mokuba standing next to a Kaiba corp limo. "Hey Mokuba! What's going on?" Yugi asked in an upbeat tone.
Tea could see that Mokuba was worried. "What's going on Mokuba?" Tea asked.
"My brother is coming back but," Mokuba started.
"But what?" Yugi asked.
"He called for a medical team," Mokuba answered.
"What!?" The group shouted.
'Angela!' Yami quickly said. There was no doubt in his mind. Bakura's eyes narrowed.
The helicopter landed infront of a large building with the Kaiba corp logo on it. Seto almost lept from the helicopter as soon as it touched the ground. The blades were slowing down s Seto flung open the passanger door. He unstrapped Angela from her seat and slide his hands under her. He propped her against his body as he tried to move quickly across the open area. Seto almost ran into the medical team. He placed Angela onto the strecher before the team completely understand what was happening. The medical group started back into the building. Seto stayed closed until they got to the emergency room. A nurse stopped Seto. They did not allow him into the room. He looked through a window as the group began their work on Angela. He could not bare to watch any longer when they started to cut into Angela. He was lead into a small room. Seto sat in a chair, with the lights off, alone.
The doctors tried to work on Angela. Her wounds were no where near minion. Most of her right side broke or bleeding. The left was only slightly better. The only parts of her body which seemed to be untouched were her head and spine. Even her legs had deep gashes and massive bruising. The doctors tried to stop the seemingly never ending flow of blood when it happen. Angela's heart stopped.
"Mister Kaiba," a nurse said walking into the room. She did not have to say much. Her face said everything. If Angela was not dead she was dying. The nurse lyied Seto's jacket on the table infront of him. It only confirmed his fears. Angela had been bleeding so much that it was seeping through to the other side of his coat during the flight back from the mountain. The nurse left the room without saying a word or making any other noise than the door closing behind her.
Mokuba, Yugi and the others almost bursted into the hospital. Mokuba ran up to the counter. "Where is my brother?" Mokuba unintentionally shouted.
"Upstairs in the waiting room," the nurse answered.
The group hurried up the stairs. Something caught Bakura's attention though. He walked away from the group without even being noticed.
Mokuba came through the door first. He was quickly followed by everyone else. The group slowed down. It did not take much to see the atmosphere in the room. Mokuba walked over to Seto. Everyone else kept their distance but moved into the room. Everyone saw the blood covered doat still lying on the table. "Seto what happened?" Mokuba asked looking at the coat.
"She was wrapped in it. I found her and all I could do was bring her here," Seto muttered under his breathe.
Despire quickly covered everyone's face in the room. 'Oh no. Does this mean,' Yugi thought.
'Probably. I wonder if it has anything to with that energy we sensed before Kaiba left,' Yugi thought.
'But who could do something that would cause that?' Yugi began to think sadly.
'I'm not sure,' Yami said. It was the only answer he could say at the moment.
Bakura walked up the window Kaiba was standing at earlier. He saw Angela's face peeking through the busy doctors running around. He saw that she had flatlined. 'I still have use for her. I can not allow her to fade away till I am done!' Yami Bakura thought to himself as he activated his millinuem ring. The light from his ring began to resisinate through the room and caused a reaction in the emergency room. A glow started to brighten in Angela's chest. The glow become more intense without growing in size. Suddenly the monitor picked up a heartbeat once again. The doctors did not second guess the miraclous event. Balura walked up to where the rest of the group was.
In a matter of minutes a doctor arrived in the room. He closed the door behind himself. "So doc what's going on?" Joey asked.
"How is Angela doing?" Yugi asked standing up.
The doctor looked at Kaiba. He nodded his head. "She's in surgery still. She will be for sometime yet. Her right arm was torn to shreds. Muscle and born were exposed. Everything ws still attached but it is still questinable weither or not we will have to amputate it later on or not. Her ribcage on the entire right side was broken. She has some factures on her back left ribcage around the shoulder blade. Her abdomine and legs are covered in deep stab wounds. Her lungs also suffered from bruising and are risk of collasping from the ribcage injures. It also apprears that she took a hit to the head. We won't know who bad it is until we are able to do further tests," the doctor concluded.
"What could do that to her?!" Joey almost shouted.
"I don't know but I have to get back to work now," the doctor said. He left the room.
Seto started to walk out of the room but Joey stepped infront of him. "What happened to her Kaiba!?" Joey said.
"Joey leave him alone," Yugi said.
"No. I want to know what's going on. She's our friend too," Joey started. He looked at Kaiba. Kaiba glared at Joey. His stare cut straight through Joey. Joey stepped out of his way. Kaiba walked out of the room.
"She maybe our friend Joey but she's alot to Kaiba," Yugi said.
"No kidding. I don't ever want to see that face again," Joey said. Mokuba ran after Seto. The pair left the hospital quickly. Yugi and the others decided to wait until nightfall before going home. Noboby slept good that night. The next day was not easy either. The night had given everyone enough time to absord what really had happened the previous night. And some people needed help with it. Others tried to return to their daily lives.
Kaiba returned to his office. He worked on several projects at once. Trying to keep his mind from wondering. It did not work all the time. A knock resounded from the door. "Come in."
Mokuba hesitantly walked in. He's head was down. "Seto can I ask you something? Is Angela going to make it? I mean she's allready died once right? Or did she. Won't she change back to a dragon when she really dies? Or is something really wrong. I don't understand Seto. Is she dying? I don't get it.. I don't get it," Mokuba quickly rammbled off. Seto walked over to his now crying brother. Seto lightly pulled Mokuba against himself. Mokuba quickly wrapped his arms around Seto. "I don't want to lose my sister!" Mokuba shouted while balling on Seto. Seto said nothing as his brother cried.
