With all aboard, the blimp took off. Idly I glanced over at the last of hte finalists...

"What?" I asked quickly, leaning against him to stop myself from falling over.

My head snapped up sharply even as I edged behind Doc. I was absolutely terrified.

I hugged her tightly. "As soon as he moves away from the guys, warn them. then warn Kaiba. I'll keep an eye on him."

"Ok." I set off across the room towards Joey and the others. Every step brought me closer to Merrick, though, and I'm pretty sure I was shaking violently by the time I got to Joey.

I watched carefully as Merrick moved away from the gang, past Jessy and towards me.
"Hello, Merrick."
"You remember. I'm impressed."
"Hard to forget a face like yours, asshole."
"Oh, I'm pretty sure i could make sure the girl remembers much more."
"You touch her and i swear, I'll kill you."
"Will you be able to manage that when she's defending me?"

"Joey!"
"What?"
"It's him, he's here. I- I have to tell Kaiba."

"Merrick!" I said, not really wanting to say his name. "I'm gonna go tell Kaiba."

"Get enslaved? Just tell the others." I was already moving away from him, towards Kaiba. Anywhere away from Merrick was good.
