Chapter 1: Watching Me

A 20year old Yugi Motou walked home in the dark streets of Domino, from his late night job at an underground club after his shift. He was 30mins away from his home at the Kame Game Shop that he and his grandfather ran. The last few nights he had been feeling like someone was watching him, but wasn't sure. He shook off the feeling. Remembering he had his ipod on him, he reached in his pocket and pulled it out and put a headphone in his ear. Turning it on and kept walking keep one headphone piece out in case he heard something. There had recently been people coming up in alley ways, dead. This really scared the young adult, because it wasn't just women but men as well meaning that someone or something was after people.

Flashback

Yugi sat down on the couch and turn the TV onto the news

A young women reporter mid20's – 30's was reporting on recent killings.

We don't know who is doing these horrible things. We have 8 people dead so far. There is no blood left in these people's bodies, they are bone dry, although there are two puncture marks on there necks. The coroners have no idea what made them. The police urge people to walk in groups and not on there own. The police have no leads on the murder or murder's. If anyone has any information on these attacks, please contact the police straight away. Please remember to walk in groups and not alone at night.

This is Anzu ? reporting on the deaths all around the city.

The screen when back to the studio and went to the weather.

"Hehe if only I had someone to walk with on the late nights back from work." 'Not like I care if I die. I get beaten up everyday after class at uni, so who cares if I die.'

End of Flashback

Tears started to form in the young males eyes when he remember that he had no friends and no-one cared about him or what happened to him.

"Hehe not like I care if I die. I get beaten up everyday after class, so who cares if I die. No one will care or miss me."

He walked even slowly down the streets as he said that, listening to his music. The words to the song sort of resembled what he felt inside. He started singing the song even if it didn't resemble some his feelings.

"Still can't find what keeps me here

When all this time I've been so hollow inside

I know you're still there."

Unknown to Yugi something had been following him since the club. It was walking along near him up on a ledge, hidden in the darkness of the trees. Listening and watching the young male slowly walk along the road.

'How could a mortal not have any friends? They always seem to have friends.' The figure thought.

The figure in the darkness listened to the words the young male was singing.

"Watching me, wanting me

I can feel you pull me down

Fearing you, loving you

I won't let you pull me down"

The figure was so captivated by the words and didn't watch were it was walking and stepped on a twig. In doing so it caused the young male to look up from where he was looking to the trees where the sound originated from. The figure frozen when it saw the young male's eyes scanning the trees.

Yugi turned back to the street he was walking down, not singing, so he could hear what was going on around him. He started walking faster so he could get home so he could be safe.

When the figure realised that the young male was no longer standing and looking at the trees. He realised that the young male wasn't singing, which was properly for the best so he could concentrate on where he was walking and where the young male was walking.

Yugi got to an intersection and turn left walking along the same ledge meaning the figure lurking in the darkness of the trees could still follow.

Yugi soon arrived at a line of shops. Feeling a little safer along here, he slowed his walking pace down again. What he didn't notice was the alley that he was walking towards. The shop before the alley way was what caught Yugi's eye. The shattered glass on the ground from a broken window. He walked towards the shop to have a look, while grabbing out his mobile to call the cops seeing as the alarm for the shop hadn't gone off. The young male felt the hair on the back of his neck stand on end when he approaches the shop. He had no idea why.

The figure was still following the young male waiting for him to walk somewhere where there was darkness. But the young man never did, which was starting to annoy him. The figure had got on the top of the shop roofs and was walking along them just behind the young man.

'Come on, go somewhere dark. Come on, I don't have all night.'

The young man had dialled in the number to call the cops, but before he could press the talk button he heard a sound coming from the alley beside the shop. Yugi slowly approach the alley. As he approach he heard muffled sounds from someone in the alley. Yugi took another step so he could peak around the corner but stepped on a piece of glass. The person in the alley way heard this and pretended not to hear and slowly approach the corner of the alley way where Yugi was standing on the other side of the wall, waiting for the person to poke their head around the corner.

Yugi took a deep silent breathe and slowly poked his head around the corner. As he did the guy grabbed Yugi by the head and pulled him into the alley way causing him to drop the phone but at the same time press talk.

The figure watched Yugi closely from a very far distance, just in case he trod on something, and cause the young man to run off. While he watched he saw him disappear around the corner. This cause the figure to jump to the ground and….

As soon as the guy pulled Yugi around the corner he started punching and kicking him. He grabbed Yugi by the hair and lifted him off the ground.

"Who are you?" the guy said as he punches Yugi in the stomach.

Yugi didn't answer just clutched his stomach. The guy picked Yugi up by the hair and punched him 5times in the face. After the guy stopped Yugi took a look at his attacker. He was 6 maybe 7 foot tall, big build, way to strong for Yugi to fight back.

"Who are you? I asked you a question." the guy asked again already getting impatient.

Yugi said nothing.

"Fine." He said as he dragged Yugi by the hair over to a bag that was on a trash can.

The guy rummaged through the bag and Yugi saw that the man had robbed the shop with the broken glass. The robber then pulled out a gun. He turned around so that he was facing the far wall and tossed Yugi back first to the wall. Yugi fell to the floor clutching his chest and stomach. He heard the gun choke and looked up a gun barrel.

"If you don't answer this time I will kill you here and now." The robber stated.

The figure quickly picked up the mobile and turned it off. He heard a gun choke and he poked his head around the corner to see the young man with a gun to his head.

"Who are you?" the robber man asked the young male on the ground, "Well?"

"Y-Yugi M-Motou." The young male stuttered as his eyes were focused on the gun in his face.

"Thankyou, now that piece of paper I see sticking out of your pocket and write this down. 'The name of this person is Yugi Motou' Now!!!" the robber said as he chucked a pencil to him.

Yugi to scared to do anything scribed down what he was told to. 'Someone please save ME! I'm too young to die.'

The robber smirked as he saw the young male to do anything but write down what he was told. He snatched the pencil back once he saw that Yugi had finished writing what he was told.

"Now put that in your pocket." The robber instructed

Which Yugi did not taking his eyes off the one that had him hostage.

"Now stay still and I will make this painless." He said as he lined the gun up

"Y-Y-Y-You said you wouldn't kill me, i-i-if I told you…what you wanted to know." Yugi said finally getting his voice back after losing it.

"Oh yeah I lied. I do that a lot. Now stay still."

"HEY!!! What do you think you're doing?" A voice yelled

The gun man turned to the figure but couldn't see his face, aiming his gun at the figure. The gun man grabbed the young male off the floor and put him in front of himself as a shield. The young male whimpering at the same time.

He then turned his gun on the young male shield and called, "Stay back or I will kill him."

The figure walked forward so that the robber and the young male hostage (who was stock still once the gun was pointed at him) could see his face. The robber and young male hostage stood stunned at the figure. The robber then looked from the hostage in his arms to the older male that stood in front of him, then back to the hostage then the older male again.
