They didn't want it to be this way at all.

Why did things usually turn out so badly when you expect them to be so great in the end?

It was raining the night it happened. Raining hard. They say that rain is a blessing that washes everyones' sins from their physical bodies. Tonight...the rain wasn't a cleansing ritual. It was a reminder that even horrid things can happen to all sorts of people.

Through the dark alleyways of Domino City, he ran as hard as he could. He had to get as far away as he could, as fast as he could. The people after him were dangerous and he knew that his life was at risk, as well as the life of his sensei and his friends.

They kept visiting, wanting a business deal with sensei for his cards...I guess that finally got tired of no he thought as he rounded a corner I gotta find the guys. We need to get out of town and find someplace safe...somewhere they can't find us.

The people in the hotel lobby found the appearance of the panting and wet young man to be a little odd and somewhat suspicious. This was a four-star hotel, suited for only the wealthy and cultured people of the city, but here, someone had burst into the revolving doors wearing a heavy overcoat, the hood over his head.

He pulled away the hood, revealing that he had messy, wet brown hair which bangs nearly covering his deep sapphire eyes. Ignoring the whispers of the people in the lobby, he walked to the nearest payphone and put the last bit of change he had in his pockets and dialed the first number that came to mind.

After a few rings, the other side picked up.

"Uh...moshi moshi,"

"Erik...it's me,"

"D-man? Dude, it's frickin' late as hell, what are you doing callin' me up at this time of night?" the young man on the other end said, clearly annoyed at the sudden phone call.

"Erik, listen to me. You know those goons that came by Sensei's place?"

"Yeah...,"

"They came back...and they looked pissed man. They tore up the place, looking for Sensei and his treasure,"

"Oh shit, are you alright, D? Where are you?"

"Uh...I'm at the fancy hotel not too far away from Kaiba Land. Listen, have you heard word from Jake and Jett?"

"No I haven't...shimatta, what do we do, call the police?"

The one known as D shook his head, looking around him, "No, we cannot call the cops man, we don't know whose working with the gang,"

"Well what the hell are we supposed to do? Hole up and wait for 'em man? Personally, I don't want that to happen, especially with my folks outta town. I don't want them to come and see their son's corpse in a pool of blood on the floor!"

"Erik, calm down, ok? Look...Sensei and his friends had a plan, should something like this happen. I found it while I was hiding from the raiding party,"

"What kinda plan? What the hell are we gonna do?"

D looked around again, "Uh...I'll let you know when you and the other two get here. Remember the big hotel near Kaiba Land...it's about...ten past midnight now, so I want you, Jett, and Jake to be here by twelve-thirty, understand?"

"Aw shit...look, I'll try my best man. We don't even know if they're alright or not,"

"I'm aware of that Erik, I just want you to try ok? I'll try and get us a room here, that way we have a safe place to talk...I gotta go, get here soon!".

Before his friend could make any other reply, D hung up the phone and walked up to the front desk. The woman at the counter looked at him briefly, "I'm sorry, young man, but I don't have any change for the vending machine,"

D frowned, "I'm not here for change, I need a room...NOW!," he hissed as about five police cards roared past the hotel, sirens blaring, only to be accompanied by the rolling thunder.
