[The video switches on to Japan, and he leaves the device lying there. He's got his uniform on, though his arms aren't through the sleeves, and he's looking pretty grim. Ignoring that, he seems to be in the hospital which is not in good shape.]

...Forgive me for what has occurred.

Ah, but if I may ask, what has happened to the hospital? It is... [a pause. he looks away from the camera.]

My sword is missing. I am not sure how I will maneuver back to the apartments, but I suppose I can try my best.

[an even longer pause. so much pausing.]

My sincerest apologies to those I have let down. [and he reaches over and clicks off the feed]

[brbmodernizing]

Mutou-kun...

...

Are you safe?

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

Nn! Yes, I'm fine! I'm in Horton with Bakura-kun!

Are you alright? Where are you?

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

I will be at Horton soon. ..Why are you not in the high school?

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

We were closer to the hospital after I...

[...]

W-Well, the high school was too far, and it couldn't fit everyone anyway, so I'm staying in Horton for now!

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

...But you are healthy?

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Bakura-kun patched me up!

[Y'know. This whole... honesty thing.]

But you're fine? You're not in the hospital right?

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

Patched up? Were you attacked?

... Ah, I am no longer there. I am on my way to Horton.

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

Well, I kind of... ran out to help someone.

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

Help someone? Ah, if it is not too much trouble to explain?

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

....they had attacked Gracia. She was injured so.. so I went to help her.

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

Gracia-san..?! Is she alright?!

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

I... I don't know....

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

You don't..?!

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

She's in the high school now.

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

Ah, right.. I understand. I shall ask a family member to check on her..

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry.

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

It is not your fault.

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

I should've been able to do more, to get there faster..

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

No, Mutou-kun. Do not place blame on yourself. Gracia-san is strong. ...I am.. certain she will be fine.

[video]

[dueling-hearts.livejournal.com]

...

Yes, she will. I know she will.

[video]

[brbmodernizing]

Yes. And now we must look out for the others that we can.

I haven't heard from Jounouchi-kun or Sohma-kun since this all started...
