Tsuki no Curse

Shiroi: Okay okay! I wanted to write 'Everlasting' and this so much, so I decided to post both! Though… I'm gonna have trouble updating. ARGH! Screw it! I'm going to write both! :D Okay, let's move on! :D

Summary: Yuugi always loved the moon, it was always there, brightening up the night. Yami had lived in the dark for all his life, he thinks that the moon is absolutely not needed. Their similiarity? They have both been hurt by love, and despise it. When they meet and fall in love, will they be able to go to a place where, they can actually believe in love?

Pairings: YuugiYami of course! Who doesn't like our pharaoh and chibi-chan! :D. Also SetoJou and other YamixHikaris and lastly, KisaraAnzu.

Shiroi: Alright-y then, Seto-chan, disclaimer!

Seto: … I'm not doing this. And don't call me Seto-chan!

Jou: Oh please Seto, stop being mean and do it!

Seto: -rolls eyes- whatever, Whitey do not own Yuugiou (If she did, I'll be so dead) or 'Tsuki no Curse' by Okina Reika. Okay fine?!

Rating: T for now, R later cause of Lemon. (Any surprise since Everlasting?)

Warnings: OOC-ness; and I don't know, future chapter contains angst. (Duh!) Not really spell-checked, cause Shana isn't here and I can never spot my own errors. XD

Shiroi: … Yes… -whispers- now I can bribe Jou to make Seto do things for me. XD –evil cackle-

… Now then I realize one thing… I feel like doing all 4 of my Yuugiou stories! OMG! In fact Crossroad (KHR fic) sounds nice too… Should I do everything and update like crazy during my holidays? XD; it's only 2 weeks away and 4 weeks break.

Seto: Never mind, can we just get on with it! By the way, this is her FIRST pathetic attempt at Puzzleshipping. And she's really pathetic.

Jou: -hits Seto on head-

Shiroi: -death glare at Seto- Shut up!

P.S. The lyrics are also like 'Everlasting's Kanji first, Romanji next, and finally English translation last. Thanks to animelyrics(dot)net for the Lyrics. I no longer have the heart to translate or type out. XD

(Edit: I have no idea of the whole about Moon, it just seemed... Right. XD; So DON'T ask me!)


Chapter 1: Yuugi Mutou; Yami Atemu (Prologue)

月の呪縛(カース)
冷たい夢の中で…

Tsuki no Curse (KAASU)
Tsumetai yume no naka de…

(Moon's Curse
In this icy dream…)

痛みをまだ知らない子供だけのやり方で
君は君を閉ざしてる

Itami wo mada shiranai kodomo dake no yarikata de
Kimi wa kimi wo tozashiteru

(By ways only a child knows no pain can do
You close yourself off to the world)

Yuugi Mutou

"Yuugi, Yuugi!" his mum called out, the petite teen opened his eyes, revealing beautiful amethyst orbs. "Yuugi smiled at her, ohaiyo, okaa-san." Hoshi (1) returned her son's smile. "Yuugi, you should get up, Jou-kun and the others are waiting for you, you'll are going out right?" Yuugi's head shot up, his mother ducked and heaved a sigh of relief, thank god that she avoided getting hit. The short teen made a quick dash to the bathroom and get ready, leaving Hoshi to shake her head and sigh.

Yuugi wasn't like this, at least, a year ago, he wasn't. She glared at nothing in particular, it was because of him.

She stopped, and sighed. It was because of Sam (2), that her little Yuugi was like this.

"Hoshi-san?" A feminine voice broke her out of her thoughts, she turned in the direction, it was Mazaki Anzu, a bob-haired brunette with crystalline blue eyes. Hoshi smiled and replied to her, "Yes Anzu-chan?" Anzu felt relieved that she relaxed, "Hoshi-san, is Yuugi-kun alright?" Hoshi smiled, god thing Yuugi had such caring friends.

-Meanwhile, with Yuugi…

Yuugi sighed and turned on the tap, the sound of water rushing was so comforting to him. He had stayed up yesterday to admire the full moon. The moon was the only one he can depend on. Sure he had friends, but they all had a significant other. Jou had Seto, Ryou had Bakura, Malik had Marik, Honda had Otogi, Anzu had Kisara, and Mai had Valon.

And him? He had no one.

Well… He used to have one, but he didn't want to go into that now.

He sighed, and proceeded to brush his teeth.

Why did he fancy the moon so much? He felt that it was the only thing that wouldn't leave him. Sure it might disappear in the day, but it always came back at night. Brightening up his life, the moon was his reason for continuing. Just like he was.

Yuugi frowned.

"Yuugi! What took you so long?" Jou asked, when Yuugi came out of his room. Yuugi smiled in return, "oh nothing Jou-kun, I just slept late." Jou frowned and gave him a doubtful look. Yuugi just shrugged, grabbed a piece of toast with jam, and looked over to his friends.

"You guys coming?" Jou smirked, "of course Yuugi!" Anzu and the others then waved good bye to Hoshi-san before they stepped out. Yuugi then turned to Jou, "where are we going today, Jou-kun?" Jou grinned, "We're going to Kaiba Land! It's Mokuba-kun's birthday today, remember?" Yuugi smiled, "how can I forget?"

Anzu grinned from behind, "good, which means Yuugi hasn't lost his brain through all those sleeping!" she joked. And they all laughed together.

Yami Atemu

"Yami-sama?" a very timid sound called out, "Yami-sama, wake up, Kaiba-sama is here to fetch you…" Yami stirred and opened his crimson eyes, "What Yumi?" He snapped, or maybe, slightly slurred at the maid, the girl named Yumi sighed, "Yami Atemu-sama! Kaiba-sama is here to fetch you!"

Yami's ears strained to listen to her, but he was distracted by the noise (Or voice) outside.

"DAMN IT! YAMI ATEMU! I SWEAR TO RA YOU'RE TESTING MY PATIENCE! WAKE UP AND GET READY AT THIS FREAKING SECOND!"

"Only Kaiba?" Yami questioned with a raised eyebrow. Yumi blinked, and blushed, "well… With Bakura-sama and Marik-sama too…" she trailed off. Yami growled in annoyance, before shouting, "Who wants to test YOUR patience? You Ra-To-Be-Damned Tomb Robber (3)?! Shut up before I throw you out!" before turning back to the now shell-shocked Yumi, "Thanks Yumi-chan, now I'll appreciate it if you get out of my sight." Yumi took a second to register the whole conversation, and dashed out of the room.

Yami rolled his eyes and pressed his ears to the door again to listen for anything else, but there was only Bakura's swearing. Of course, I have no rights to tell you… As it'll corrupt me too! Okay, now back to the story.

"Bakura, shut up before I tell Yami to throw you out."

Yami rolled his eyes at the cold voice, Kaiba, who ELSE could it be?! He frowned, getting a feeling that there's going to be another fight, opened the door none-too-gently (Shiroi: Poor door, but don't worry, no doors were hurt in the production of this chapter.) and shouted, "BAKURA! SHUT UP! GIVE ME 5 MINUTES! DAMN IT!"

There was silence, Yami nodded, good, before he went to get ready.

Yami kicked a stone off the pavement after getting out of the blue jaguar. (Shiroi: I am NOT an expert of cars, and not really interested, so yeah…)

"Cousin, why must I go to your brother's birthday party where obviously, it's for KIDS?" (4) Kaiba rolled his eyes at that, "Cause we're all going, as our lovers are also going." Yami frowned, "I don't have a lover!"

Marik snickered, "that's exactly the point, you see –" he started before getting his thigh kicked by Kaiba.

"OUCH! DAMN YOU! YOU STUPID PRIEST!" Kaiba only gave a bemused smirk at that, "On the contrary Marik, I'm not stupid."

Yami cleared his throat, "See what?" he asked Bakura, who feign innocence, "nothing, nothing, Marik was only joking, right Marik?!" The Egyptian blonde nodded, "yes," the he added an almost silent "unfortunately."

Yami frowned.


1. It's his mother… I think Hoshi was her name… Or is her name? XD.

2. Just some random name I asked my friend, I was going to pick a Yuugiou character at first, but decided against it. I'm going to go in more about him and Yuugi later on in the story.

3. Let's just say the 'past life crap' (As Seto call it) still exists between them.

4. You see, Yami just came from Egypt, so he has no idea of Yuugi-tachi. I'll get more about it alter to fill up plot holes too…

Shiroi: OMG! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! 2 CHAPTERS IN ONE DAMN DAY! :D (Of different stories that is…) I'm going to update Everlasting, I feel like typing like HELL! :D

Seto: Shouldn't she be admitted to a asylum?

Jou: Seto, don't be so mean!

Shiroi: Shut up Seto, now I shall do the preview.

Next time on Tsuki no Curse – Counterparts and memories. :

"Who are you?" Yuugi asked, obviously not seen his counterpart before.

"Uh-oh, another double." Ryou and Malik whispered.

"Meet Yami Atemu, guys! My far off cousin from Egypt!" Mokuba squealed.

"COUSIN?!"

Shiroi: One thing to clear up though, this fic is not a humour fic, its an angst fic. XD, I don't do humour, at least, not anymore and not yet… -frown- Again, this chapter is done in school, so Shana isn't here to help. Obviously there will be typo-s. This chapter was so so so damn short! … It will seem rushed, XD.

By the way, I still want to write the other 2 stories (plus) Crossroad (KHR fic), should I? I am seriously very tempted to do so.

Alright-y then, till next time! :D R&R! (:
