The name attached to one of the new L337POD signatures had Kaiba making a double take. It was his custom to look over the NETWORK every few days or so, to see if Mokuba had been returned to him or something more insidious had happened. This didn't quite count as insidious....but it wasn't exactly what Kaiba wanted to see.

He hesitated, trying to decide whether it would be better for him to ignore the man and wait for him to blunder into awareness, or let him know right now what he was dealing with. Hm. Which would be the most disruptive?

The brunet sat at his desk, thinking it through, before moving to type out a message on the L337POD.

"Get off the leash, Mutt?" the text message said, coming up on the LP like a message on any cell phone would.

Jou continued to mull things over in his head, waiting for something to happen. Sooner or later, the blonde would have to get up and do something. He couldn't stay in this forest forever. He'd have to find shelter. Were there even other people here? Well... there must've been, since he'd found that strange device. Gah, all this thinking was making his head hurt.

beep.

Hm? At the noise, he lifted his head a little and curiously stared at the L337POD. Just like any old cellphone back home, he'd received a text message of some sort. It was strange, but he sat up and grabbed at the device regardless.The sender of the message referred to him as Mutt, which only meant that that bastard Kaiba was here of all people. Wonderful.

"You'd better start explaining what's going on here, jerk. You're the one with all the money."

The brunet smirked. The idiot was nothing but predictable, and god only knew how much he needed that right now. It was far more preferable to trying to get all of his own blood out of the office.

"Don't worry, I'm sure someone will hear your inevitable howling and find your body out in the woods," he typed quickly. "Can't have it stinking up the entire Island."

Jounouchi growled at the LP as Kaiba's reply returned. He didn't have time for Seto's superiority complex right now, but at least he'd been good for something. He mentioned they were on an Island, which Jou supposed might be helpful information.

"I guess the wolves haven't gotten you yet because they're afraid of being eaten first. I've got things to do, Kaiba. We'll play later."

Words could not express how badly he hated that man. He wasn't sure what Yuugi ever saw in him in the first place. Once a mook, always a mook.

Kagome was walking by when she heard the random noise. She knelt down by him and smiled slightly.

"Welcome to Salkia."

[brooklynraaage]

He'd heard her footsteps as the girl approached and sat up quickly, a little paranoid of his new surroundings. Jou watched her as she knelt beside him and smiled. Well, she seemed friendly enough.

"Salkia?" He repeated with a raised brow. It wasn't a name he recognized, and it certainly wasn't in his beloved Domino City. "Guess that must be this place, huh?"

[i_am_kagome]

She could understand what he was going through. It is very unsettling being in a place that you don't know.

She sighed as she thought of a way to describe it although at his other question, she glanced back and smiled. At least he was smart. "Yes this island is known as Salkia."

[brooklynraaage]

"Right, right. An island." He said quietly, turning the thought over and over in his mind. He guessed it kind of was like Duelist Kingdom. Except, all of his friends weren't with him and he didn't have a direction.

"You live here or somethin'? 'Cause I sure as hell don't." Jounouchi said to her as he slowly got to his feet and dusted himself off. His entire body still screamed in pain, but he gritted his teeth and tolerated it. "Name's Jounouchi, by the way."
