The Afterlife The After adventures and The After affects

After Atem left the gang all did their own thing. Duke left and wasn't heard from again. Mai and Joey got married. Tea became a Broadway sensation. Tristan became an engineer at Kaibacorp. Yugi's grandfather passed away and Yugi took over the game shop. Then he met Melody. She helped him run the game shop and lived with him even though they weren't married yet. She had chocolate brown hair and sea green eyes. Her hair fell down in curls on her back. Atem on the other hand, got married to Mana. He ruled as the king of the afterlife. He found out that Yugi was a descendant of his. He also found out a way to contact the living… Delve into this story to find out what happens.

Yugi heard the annoying beep of the alarm clock. He grumbled "Melody get that."

"You're so lazy Mr. King of games"

"Yeah and?" Melody rolled her eyes. She turned off the alarm clock and stretched her arms. Another typical day. She didn't know why but she thought the date in her head. It was July 21 right after the beginning of rush season. She went downstairs and made muffins. As she expected Yugi came down to find out today's breakfast delicacy.

"You spoil me Melody." Smiled Yugi.

"There is no other way to get you out of bed than through your stomach" she replied.

Yugi smiled and said "We should be getting our Poke'mon and Duel Monsters Black chaos packs this morning."


Melody rolled her eyes. "If we didn't have you duel we would go bankrupt because you always take a pack or two."

"Hey do you want me to lose the duels."

"No but has your original deck ever failed you?"

The truth was it didn't but it brought back painful memories. Yugi's bright violet eyes stared at his breakfast. He announced "I'll go open up shop.

" Melody said "I'd get dressed first."

Yugi looked down and realized he was still in his light blue pajamas. He blushed then ran upstairs. He always wore the same thing. A black muscle shirt with leather pants, a duel belt, the usual metal jewelry and collar, and black leather shoes. He looked at his reflection then looked away. He reminded himself of the pharaoh more than ever. He walked downstairs then realized something. It was July 21. He smiled. It was finally the day.

Melody he yelled "I actually have something I've got to do."

"What"

"It's a surprise."

She signed then hollered "Can I at least call reinforcements."

"K'"

Melody sent a quick text then started to dust off the Wii games. A familiar Brooklyn accent hollered "ey Melody why do ya need the services of Joey Wheeler today."

"Yugi had to do something but he wouldn't tell me what"

"Not tell ya? Somethin' wrong"

"No he seemed pretty happy today."

Today she wished she had Yugi and Joey at her disposal. Kids asked for duel advice, teens bought the X-boxes, and adults asked for the most popular games for birthday parties. At 10 o'clock the shop closed. Melody was furious at Yugi. When he came home she ambushed him right as Joey was about to leave.

"Yugi Muto, I have worked my butt off today and you have been gone all day doing your own thing. You let me answer questions at a game that is your expertise. You let me break it to the customers that our games were out of stock. You let me endure the entire day with only Joey!"

"No offense" she nodded in Joey's direction.

"Yugi Solomon Muto." She huffed.


Yugi had been staring at her with those big purple eyes of his. First they were in shock then in guilt and maybe even a little panic.

"Well I'm leaving this to you guys" Joey awkwardly stepped out of the game shop.

Melody popped into a chair tired from the days work and screaming at Yugi.

"I at least deserve the right to find out where you were."

He shyly handed her a Duel Monsters card. She was about to begin going into hysteria that Yugi spent all day getting a duel monsters card when she looked at it. It was a picture of a ring. Where the description was supposed to there was a message. Melody, our love is stronger than all the Egyptian gods. Will you marry me?

For once in her life Melody was at a loss for words.

"Yugi I-I"

Then she looked at Yugi. He was on one knee holding up a real ring that matched the picture. She then said, "Yugi of course I'll marry you."

He looked up his violet eyes gleaming.

"Melody I've always loved you but I think proposing is harder than anything I've ever tried before. Not Atlantis, not Capsule Monsters, and even not leaving Atem."

Melody said" Yugi my fiancé." I think it's time we go to bed before my excitement leaves me and I collapse."

As soon as they closed their eyes they fell asleep. Yugi then heard a sound so familiar he would have fallen over if he wasn't in dreamland.

A pair of amethyst eyes looked at him "Yugi I finally found you!"
