((Don't forget about any other character that no one clamed yet unless Tuski says so like Kaiba for instance))
Ashleigh sighed. Her boss is soooo going to have nightmares. Kaiba dismissed everyone except Ashleigh.
"I have a bag of your belongings" he said and gave it to her. The bag contained the Tauk, a bunch of CDs, a photo album and a sliver necklace (which is not the Star Tauk).
"Thank you Seto" she said as Kaiba gave her a pen to sign a new key card. He kept her old one for memory's sake. Then when that was done, he clasped the card around her neck (it was like his).
"You need this remember?" he said.
"Seto...."

((SHE'S MARRIED KAIBA!!!

And I'll post tomorrow. My brain's beginning to shut down.))

((Nope....but there was a bit of a romance between them which was broken because of one incident. That's going to be part of a flashback))

((Okies.))

Back at Omega, Sora was finished working on her motorcycle and was now looking for a certain ducktail-haired duelist.

"I'm going to KILL Judai Yuki!" She said. She had her wrench in hand, and was determined to give her twin a piece of her mind.

"What'd he do this time?" Someone behind her asked. Sora turned, and saw that it was Aoi.

Sora scratched the back of her head, frowning. "He sabotaged my bike," She said. "There was some kind of gunk in the tailpipe, water in the gas tank, and I don't know what was coating the sparkplugs! Not to mention that I had to replace the chain..."

Aoi whistled. "That's a doozy. And I'm guessing that the wrench in your hand is destined to become one with Judai's head?"

Sora nodded. "Have you seen him anywhere?"

"Nope." Aoi replied.

"Aw, damn." Sora said. "He'd better not be hiding out in some closet or something..."

"Last time I saw him was about an hour ago. He wanted to go out for a while. I just hope that he doesn't do anything dangerous" Marcia said.

"He'll be doing something dangerous by coming back here!" Sora said. "I'm gonna kill that moron!"

"Sora thinks that Judai sabotaged her motorcycle." Aoi explained.

"Oh? I didn't know that you were brother and sister" Marcia said.

Sora facepalmed. "How can you not notice? I look exactly like him!"

"Except for the boobs and your lack of balls." Aoi said. "And my guess it's from the grease all over your face."

"Shut up you." Sora said. Aoi stuck her tongue out at her.

"Not really. I never guessed that Judai has a sister" Marcia said.

"Not just a sister; a twin sister." Sora said. "And it's not as glamorous as it sounds; the guy's a doofus! He can't keep that sorry ass of his outta trouble!"

"I heard that!" A boy's voice said behind them. Aoi looked, and cringed.

"JUDAI YUKI!!!!! I'M GONNA KILL YOUR ASS HERE AND NOW!!!" Sora shouted, running after her twin brother with her wrench raised.

"Ack! What'd I do!?" Judai asked. "Why're you trying to kill me with that thing?!"

"You sabotaged my bike, idiot!" Sora replied, pissed. "Don't pretend you don't know!"

"Waaaah! I didn't sabotage your bike!" Judai replied. "It was a prank I was pulling on Jun!"

"You MORON!!!!!!!!" Sora screeched. "JUN'S GOT A FRIGGIN' TOYOTA!!! MINE'S A KAWASAKI! CAN'T YOU TELL THE STINKING DIFFERENCE!?!"

Aoi sighed as the pair continued the shouting match, Sora brandishing her wrench like a battle axe the entire time. "Here we go again." She sighed. "Marcia, allow me to introduce the Yuki twins; Judai and Sora. And before you ask, they're always like this."

Marcia shook her head.
"They sure act like it" she said.

"Just be glad you didn't go to the Academy with them." Aoi said. "Each dorm had their own set of twins, and there were times when people were scared that the dorms were going to crumble with all the shouting and fighting. Judai and Sora were the set of twins for the Slifer dorm."

"You should say that I was lucky I didn't go to that acadmey. I went to Aki's Acadmey instead untill I found my powers and started fairy training" Marcia said.

"As in Aki Izayoi?" Aoi asked.

"That's right. We were in the same class together. She was upset that I won't be around as I would but mas is she going to get a surprise if she see's me" Marcia replied.

"So's Jun at the championship next month." Aoi said, thinking of Kasanagi's performance at said tournament.

"Yeah. I heard that she already has her first ablum out and is already a hit. I also heard that Ashleigh is singing on the last night" Marcia replied.

"Same here," Aoi said. "I just hope I can see the tournament."

"I also heard that Yana Muto is debuting as a duelist" Marcia said, "I just hope that it's just a rumor. She's strong, but not strong enough to enter a big time tornament."

Aoi raised an eyebrow. "I'd expect her to be strong, considering the last name." She said. She would've said more, if not for a series of metallic thunks and a stream of swearing. "Looks like you've finally succeeded in giving Judai a concussion."

"Nah; if I wanted to do that, then I'd have kicked him in the ass." Sora said. She was tapping the wrench on her shoulder innocently.

"Ow, that hurt." Judai said, rubbing a growing lump on his head. "D'you have to hit me that hard?"

"It's the only hope I have of getting that brain of yours working for a change," Sora replied. Aoi sighed. Some things never change, she thought.

Marcia giggled.
"No wonder you are a pair of clowns" she said.

"Clowns?" Sora asked. "Excuse me, but I've got an IQ close to 200. Plus I'm about to start on my master's degree before long."

"Master's? In what?" Judai asked, forgetting the egg-sized lump on his head.

"The very thing you failed in at the Academy; Chemistry." Sora replied.

"Well, she does have a bit of a point, Sora." Aoi said. "About the only thing different about you and Judai is your IQ. Yours matches mine and Daichi's, where as Judai's..."

"Is that of a pidgeon." Sora finished. "Hey!" her brother protested.

Meanwhile, Kaiba looked outside the meeting hall window.
"Things has changed hasn't it. I believe that your daughter is debuting in the big leagues" he said.
"Even though I don't approve since she's not upto that level, she decided to enter to prove to me that she's a duelist" Ashleigh said.
"I see" Kaiba said as he remembered a memory.....
"I can't wait till Grand Championships v2" Ashleigh cried with excitement.
"Yeah and this year, you are an offical commisioner, like me" Mokuba Kaiba said with glee. Kaiba smiled at the two.
"Ashleigh, I have something to give to you" he said. Ashleigh blinked as Kaiba gave her a wrapped gift.
"I was saving it till your birthday but you need it for the tornament" he said blushing. The girl unwrapped it. It was a duel monster card locket, the same one that Kaiba and Mokuba has. She popped it open. It read:
Kaiba Corp offical keycard. Property of Ashliegh Velman.
"That means, no matter who you marry, you are always welcome at my company" Kaiba replied. Ashliegh hugged Kaiba, after she put the locket around her neck.
"Thank you so much" she said. Kaiba blushed.
"You welcome" he said as Mokuba joined in the group hug, "for now, when it's us two or all of us are together, you can call me Seto if you wish...."
"You ok Seto?" Ashleigh asked.
"Yes, I'm fine" Kaiba replied.

((Aw! Kaiba's got emotions after all.))

Selena flopped down on her bed. This spy mission is starting to take its toll on me. She thought. She pulled her iPod out of an inner pocket of her coat and pressed the the earbuds into her ears. She turned it on and scrolled down to a familiar song.

As the piano started, she let her mind wander back to that day. The day her voice was taken from her...

Selena sat down at the piano. This is different, she thought. I've only ever practiced on a keyboard. She took a breath and adjusted her waistcoat, preparing to play. Well, it's now or never. She flipped the recorder she'd brought with her on and started to play.

How do you measure, measure a year?

In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights
In cups of coffee
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife.

In five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure
A year in the life?

How about love?
How about love?
How about love? Measure in love

Seasons of love. Seasons of love

Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes!
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Journeys to plan.

Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure the life
Of a woman or a man?

In truths that she learned,
Or in times that he cried.
In bridges he burned,
Or the way that she died.

It's time now to sing out,
Tho' the story never ends
Let's celebrate
Remember a year in the life of friends
Remember the love!
Remember the love!
Seasons of love!

She stopped playing to applause. For the first time in her life, she felt like she was...normal. She felt as if she were human, rather than some piece of garbage everyone stepped on. It was like she was back in Japan again, she was smiling.

But if I'm happy, then why am I crying? She thought.

Selena opened her eyes. There were tears running down her cheeks. That was the last time I used my vocie. She thought. The night that bastard destroyed my voice. It was true; right after she was backstage, a pissed-off audiance member had seen fit to remind her of her place. She never got to accept her award--her parents did for her. She was unconcious in the hospital, her vocal chords damaged beyond repair. The only memento she had of that day now was a an ugly scar stretching accross her throat. For a while she'd used a technique; False Sound. There was only one problem; it was temorary. There was a finite number of times she had until she lost it for good. Soon, she would be completely mute again.

She smiled humorlessly. At least I'm used to being forced into silence, She thought bitterly.

An angel touched Selena on her sholder.
'Don't worry, where is a will, there is a way. Soon you will have your beautiful song back in her heart but good things take time' she said and chanted a spell. When she finished, she smiled.
'I was able to restore your False Sound ability. But I don't know how long it will last' the angel said. Her voice sounded....familiar.
