They drove for over an hour,
The sleet and snow,
Hindering their fast pace.
The little phoenix asleep in Marik's lap.
"Where are we headed to?"
"To a safe place in the mountains. We will stay there until your brother tells us it is safe."
The little baby phoenix opened its eyes,
Looked at her,
Jumped off of Marik's lap,
And walked over onto hers.
And proceeded to fall back asleep.
"Why do you have a baby phoenix?"
"It was an anniversary gift for you. It's odd coloring is rare. There were a lot of bidders for the bird. Unfortunately its not even our anniversary and you have him now."
"Thank you, my love." She hugged him while she was driving.
"Once it knows it owner, it will remain loyal to that person forever. Do take good care of him."
"What is his name?"
"You name him. He doesn't yet have a name."
"Hmmm..... How about Winchester."
It looked at her and peeped a little musical sound.
"I think it likes it."
So they drove for the rest of the day.
Akari was asleep in the car,
When she woke up the car was parked,
In a driveway.
"Glad you woke up. We just arrived. This is our vacation house if you remember."
"Yes I do."
"Come, we have to get inside."
"Very well." She picked the small phoenix up and carried him into the house.
As soon as they got in,
The phone was blinking,
Revealing that they had a message.
Akari pressed the button.
Listening to the message,
She turned to her husband.
"Mariku, Bakura just called. Our house was blown up."
Marik's eyes widened.
Then he shrugged.
"We can remain here."
"I'm going to bed. Good night Mariku."
"Good night Akari."
