"Seto what is wrong?" Angela asked. Her sense cought the change in Kaiba's emotions.
"Come on," Seto said harshly. He grabbed Angela by her hand. He started to pull Angela into the building.
"Seto what is wrong? Why are we hurring so?" Angela said as she almost fell a few stepps trying to keep up with Seto's pace.
"We have to get out of here before that woman finds you," Seto almost shouted.
"What is wrong with Melissa?" Angela asked.
Seto stopped on the stairs. He turned around in enough time to see Angela almost fall off the last two steps. He moved to help her. "What is wrong with you? I don't mind the proper behavior but its me and there is no one else around. Why are talking like this?
What do you mean?
You're not relaxed. Something is off about you. And not the changes with your appereance but your mannerism. Talk to me," Seto said.
Angela's other hand moved to her side. "I'm not sure. So much has changed since I was last awake. I just have to get used to it. I am sorry if it disturbes you.
Seto almost wrenched at her comment. "Why did you almost fall off the steps?" Seto asked.
"I can only see in waves of auras now. Steps have none. So," Angela said.
"You can not see where they are to put your foot down." Angela shock her head yes. "Fine follow close," Seto annoyingly said.
The elevator doors open. Melissa was inside the elevator. She stepped just outside the door line. She had a small breifcase in her hand. "Should have gone with the stairs," Melissa said with a slight grin. Seto moved Angela behind him. He tried to keep her hidden. 'Cute,' Melissa thought to herself.
"What do you want Melissa?" Seto asked with more than a hint of bitterness and anger.
"I've come to talk with Angela Kaiba. And for once it would good if you just moved out of the way," Melissa said. She stepped forward.
"Why should I let you near her?" Seto said. He still tried to keep Angela behind him. But she moved to hold his arm.
Melissa saw half of Angela. She was clearly uncertain about her location. Melissa was more surprised about her physical changes. "Angela are you all right?" Melissa asked. She tried to move toward Angela. Seto rotated. Melissa looked displeased at his motions.
Angela heard something rattle. 'What's that?' Angela closed her eyes. 'I can smell something,' Angela thought to herself. She moved out from behind Seto but she kept a hand on his arm. "Melissa did you bring the tri-chemicals?" Angela asked. Seto's body repotioned. He seemed more confused now.
"Yes," Melissa said.
"All right," Angela said. She moved away from Seto enough. She felt Seto turn to her. "Its all right. You don't have to worry about this Seto," Angela said. "Melissa choose a place quickly," Angela said. She held a hand out toward where she sensed Mellisa's aura.
Mellisa took the hint and grabbed Angela's hand. The pair ran off into Angela's room. Melissa slammed the door behind them. Angela almost feel onto the bed. "What is going on?" Melissa started. She hurried around to a chair on the other side of the room. She opened the small case and started to fill a needle with a clear liquid.
Angela felt something inside her shift. "We do not have time now. What is happening?" Angela mummbled.
"The Tribunal sent a message to the office. Angela are you all right?" Melissa said. She place the needle down carefully and went to check on Angela.
"I can't focus," Angela muttered before she collasped onto Melissa.
"Angela! Angela!" Melissa shouted and started to move Angela onto the bed.
Seto kicked the door open. "What is going on in here?" Seto shouted.
"The Tribunal has called her into a meeting. Without using the tri-chems I can't keep track of her," Melissa said quickly.
Mokuba hurried to Angela's side. Seto almost automatically went to Melissa in anger. "What's the Tribuni-thingy and why do they want her?" Joey said coming into the room with the rest of the group.
"The Tribunal is a dark society which wants Angela's power for their our purposes," Melissa explained.
"What's happening to her?" Yugi asked looking at the motionless Angela.
"I don't know. No one does. Angela is the only one the Tribunal speaks with. The rest of us only receive messages," Melissa answered.
"Not any more," Seto aggressively said. He turned to the needle and injected it into his abs.
Melissa snapped around. She shouted as she cought Seto. "Somebody help please. He is heavier than he looks," Melissa said as she tried to stand up with Seto.
Tristan and Joey helped Melissa pick up Seto. The trio placed him on the bed as Angela was moved sideways to make room. "What happened to him?" Tea asked.
"Yeah what was in that needle?" Joey asked.
"It was the Tri-chemicals. We use them whenever Angela has a meeting with the Tribunal," Melissa said. She ripped open Seto's shirt. She started placing different monitors on his chest. "we have a serious problem though. Those chemicals were made specificly for Angela to use," Melissa said.
"So?" Joey said.
Melissa glared at Joey. "A dragon has a different body chemistry than a human does. It takes a much more potent formula for things to work on Angela than it would for things to work on Kaiba," Melissa said.
"But if its to high a mixture won't that kill Kaiba?" Tea asked as she put the concept together.
"That's the problem," Melissa said.
