One Mistake

Warning!!! This is a REALLY sad, anguishy, depressing fic, kinda like my mood. There is violence, multiple character death, and suicide.

~*~*~*~

I stared at the cool, dark waters under the bridge. I could not live anymore. I didn't deserve to. I had destroyed light, innocence and joy. All because of blind rage. No one would care if I died. Mokuba might, but I sent him an Email telling him my last thoughts, wishes, an apology, and other information. I took out my deck, my pride and joy. I looked through it, becoming more ashamed of my actions and distressed by the aftermath. All this, all this pain...all this guilt...all this shame, all because of these stupid pieces of paper.

Why did this have to happen? To me? To him? He was so nice, pure, happy. The last thing he said to me was that he forgave me. I can't handle this guilt. How could this happen.

~~Flashback * Early Morning~~

"Hey Seto! How are you this morning?" Mokuba asked cheerfully.

"Fine. Mokuba, you're getting in my way. Mokuba...MOVE MOKUBA! I HAVE STUFF TO DO!" Seto yelled, causing Mokuba to stare at his brother with large hurt eyes. "Mokuba, I..."

"Yugi called, wanted to remind you of a duel or something. See ya tonight Seto. Mokuba mumbled as he walked off, feeling hurt and dejected.

Seto sighed, and then thought about what Mokuba had said. He had almost forgotten about the duel. Yugi had asked Seto to meet him around 5:00 at the game shop. Yugi's grandpa wasn't there, he was at a convention or something, and Yugi was bored. Joy and Tea were going out and were too busy and Tristan had moved away. Ryan and his Yami were at summer camp. Basically Ryan was trying to keep his Yami in check, and also getting his Yami in new situations. Yugi's Yami was working to try to get more money. Everyone except Yugi had something to do. So he decided to call Seto and challenge him so he would have something to do that evening, as Yami wouldn't be home until 9:00 pm.

Seto was looking forward to the duel, so he got back to work with a rather pleased smile on his face.

~*~Five o clock~*~

Seto came to the game shop and opened the door. He saw Yugi look up from the book he was reading and saw Yugi grin.

"Great timing! I'm really glade you had time to come. I was getting pretty board. Now lets duel!" Yugi grabbed his deck and he and Seto started a duel. After ten games, Yugi had won six, Seto had won three, and the last one ended in a draw. Both of them were having a good time, and neither foresaw what would soon happen. Yugi was talking about the duel, and mentioned Duelist Kingdom. Seto remembered everything that had happened, from losing to Yugi, to losing to Pegasus, to having Mokuba kidnapped, to having Yugi save them. He got really upset and angry at these horrible memories, and absentmindedly began tapping his fingers on the kitchen table. Then he saw Yugi picking up his deck. He snapped. Suddenly he was controlled by his pint-up rage, now loose, and had one thought, that he must hurt Yugi anyway he could.

Seto jumped up and grabbed Yugi's wrist, and with a simple twist, broke it. Then he grabbed Yugi's collar, and he started to kick, punch, beat, and hit the other boy. He saw a knife nearby and cut the boy's cheek. When Yugi whimpered, he let out a malevolent snarl.

"Tough luck Yugi, it doesn't look like you enjoy the knife slicing into your flesh. Maybe you'll enjoy this more!" He kicked Yugi, cracking one of his ribs and the force carried him into another room.

Yugi got up quickly and ran upstairs, but Seto caught him in the hallway. He grabbed Yugi up by his hair, and, controlled by anger, slammed him into a nearby mirror. Yugi screamed as the reflective glass cracked and sent splinters of pain through his back. He fell, glass littering the floor. Seto turned him over with his shoe and pressed down, causing the glass to cut into Yugi's flesh even deeper. Then Seto kicked Yugi's small form down the stairs.

When Seto saw Yugi, barely alive, at the bottom of the stairs, the hatred and anger vanished, leaving emptiness and self-loathing. He ran to Yugi and felt for a pulse. He found an extremely weak one, and started crying. He stopped when he felt Yugi touch his arm.

"I k-know you d-didn't m-mean it K-kaiba." He managed to say. He was in great pain, which was evident when you looked at his face. There were cuts, burses, blood, tears, and what looked like several pieces of glass embedded in his face. Seto looked away. "K-kaiba, please look at m-me. I w-want to tell y-you s-something before I leave, are you listening?" Seto nodded, terse in his icy blue eyes. "I forgive you Kaiba. I don't hold anything that happened against you. Tell Yami," he let out a heart- wrenching sob, "tell Yami, tell him that I'm sorry. Tell him it's not his fault. Tell him that I'll be in a better place. Yugi looked strait at Seto, his usually bright and lively eyes dull. "Kaiba, remember that I have forgiven you for this, please rem-"

Those were the last words Yugi Moto spoke. He was dead.

Seto did three things. He wrote Yami a letter, being sure to include what Yugi wrote. Then he wrote Mokuba an e-mail, in it an apology. Then he phoned the police, and left.

~~End Flashback~~

I look at the inviting waters. 'Goodbye Mokuba. I love you, please remember that.' I think. Then I walk off into nothingness.

~*~*~

I open my eyes and see two joyful violet eyes peering at me. I sit up and see Yugi, a beautiful angle boy. Yugi smiled again, then took my hand and we walked off, disappearing into the clouds.

~*~*~*~*~

I can't believe I wrote this. I KILLED MY TWO FAVEROT CHARICTORS!!!! WHY?!?! I feel so ashamed. Please Review. Flames are dumb, if you hated it, why read it? By the way, the part that's not flashback is Seto's POV.
