Since they don't know where or when they can find hellfire besides the demon realm they encountered a problem "How about this, instead off stalling it why don't we just speed it up?" Raven asks "You never do that" Silver says "However I might have an idea". After some explaining Ruby crosses her arms "You realize that would I succeed, I'd be drained of my powers, right?" she asks "Do you have a better idea?" Silver asks "I have one" Angel says "We open the gate to the demon dimension and drop it in" "The demons might not burn it" Atem points out. "Why did everyone agree that it has to be burned?" Ruby asks half a day later "I didn't, but Sakura insisted I did" Jack says "Be careful alright?" "Do you have any idea how hard it is to change phoenix fire to hellfire?" she asks "Under no circumstance can anyone enter the temple".

Atem's worried since he knew how Ruby was with her magic drained "Silver why are we in the moon temple?" he asks "We need it, Ruby's energy will be depleted and without the book less people will believe, this way, should we get locked in again, she will be free if she wakes up" "I want to stay with her" Angel says "Do you realize what that means Angel?" Silver asks "I can't rule Egypt" "That too" Atem says "You will be stuck here without anyone else, someone else should stay with her" "Silver" Jack says appearing, carrying Ruby on his back "Angel can't stay" he says carefully grabbing a book and putting it on a table "You know she had to change into her phoenix form right?" "Yes" Silver says grabbing it and he reads through it quickly "Of course" he mumbles "Alright, Jack, you stay with her" "That's why I'm here" he says "She will lose some of her memories and she might deage a bit" "Jack, Angel, you're both staying" Silver says seeing Atem become tense at the thought of possibly losing Ruby.

So Angel and Jack stay as guards of the temple and to keep an eye on Ruby "We're gonna be here for a long time kid" Jack says watching as Angel gets in a sleeping bag "That's fine" she says "Sure I'm gonna miss dad, but he's been acting weird" "Weird how?" Jack asks sitting on a chair "Super protective of me and mom, but he's keeping his distance between the priests and himself, even his own cousin" Angel explains "So even without the book, we were too late".

Yugi sighs as he looks at Joey "This feels weird" he says "Weird how?" Tristan asks "Just as I say it, I seem to remember a more carefree way of living" Yugi says and he looks up at the sky "Why can't anyone help us?".

"It's pointless" Summer says hugging Silver's arm as Sakura, Raven and Seto are trying to break the red colored barrier "Okay step aside" Silver says so the others move when he turns into a dragon, but the fireball backfires and Silver falls down "We're not getting out and the worst part is, he's doing this without realizing" he says "It appeared after he returned to Egypt, the portals aren't working either, but he's messing up history" Mokuba says "Wait!" Evelyn says "Ruby, Angel and Jack" "Time moves the same as here in that chamber of the temple, but he won't be able to detect them" Sakura says with a sigh "You just had to ask that guy didn't you?".

"Jack!" Angel yells running into the room, dragging behind her two children her age "I saved them from a monster, what's happening out there?!" "Nothing good" Jack says "The page, maybe it wasn't burned", he looks at Ruby and groans in frustration "Jack?" someone asks, so the god summons a mirror "Thank god you're alright" Sakura says "We know how to wake Ruby without any side effects, but it's gonna take a long time" Silver says, but Jack sees he's leaning on Evelyn and Bella "People have to believe there's hope, across all the timelines" "We can't leave Ruby without someone to watch her" Jack says "You won't have to" Seto says "Angel can relay the message better, she's Atem's daughter and according to Ishizu and Isis, you have to stay with Ruby, he's going to remember that Ruby's there, since he doesn't want to lose her he will try to take her" "He can't get in" Jack says "Jack, what I'm going to ask you is dangerous, but you need to get Angel to all possible timelines, starting in Domino city" Silver says "But how?!" Jack asks "Atem's the only one able to-", he cuts himself off when Drake and Opal come into view "We can make a portal in the temple, but it's gonna be open for a short time" "And all you have to do is keep it open". The mirror is hidden when Angel runs in "He's here" she says and she hides behind Jack "Well look at that" Atem says "So there were a few gods hiding here" "What are you gonna do about it?" Jack asks crossing his arms "Oh trap you in here, after taking Ruby that is" "You leave mom alone!" Angel yells and a barrier appears "I won't take her yet, but you won't leave either".

"Okay" Silver says and Jack can see the mirror is placed in the temple "Can you keep the mirror active?" "Yes, but I'm not sure for how long" Jack says "The mirror will be your portal, Angel can change the destination, but you have to hurry". Jack looks at Angel, who's sitting in a corner "He- he didn't recognize me" she whispers so Jack sits down in front of her "Hey" he whispers "I'm here for you, if you ever need me, you know that right, now go fix this mess".

Angel hesitates, but she goes through the portal "Alright then" she mumbles before disappearing from her spot and she appears on the roof of the game shop, or what was the game shop "Hurry!" Mai yells and the young goddess sees Yugi and Téa running towards the building, chased by monsters she can only describe as ugly and undead "The creatures are faster" Joey says, Téa trips and Angel sighs "The worst place first I see" she says, this gets the attention of the group standing near the door "Anyone got a dagger?" she asks jumping down "Uh yes, but it's blunt" Mai says handing the girl a dagger, which is more like on the verge of breaking "No problem" Angel says holding the dagger in front of her and she starts chanting quietly, when she's finished she dashes forwards "Wait!" Joey says, but the monsters are easily taken out and they disappear "Who are you?" Yugi asks helping his friend up "Angel" she says "Now who wants to fill me in on what the hell Atem's doing to the timelines?" "Angel, as in the daughter of Ruby and Atem?" Tristan asks "Yes, well, that monster is not my father, but yes" "I thought the gods had abandoned us" gramps says "They're trapped, I'm only here because gods aren't as easy to trick as my dear father thinks" Angel says "But Jack has to stay with mom, so I'm here" "Can we fix this?" Joey asks "Yes, people need to believe there's hope, which, as I can see, will be hard if all timelines are like this" "Timelines?" Yugi asks, but Angel's attention is on the monster that simply pass by the store as if it's not there and she raises an eyebrow "The buildings are protected by a talisman" gramps says and he takes one from the back "Dragons and phoenixes" Angel mumbles "Do you have more?" "Yes, boxes full of them"
