Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh. I just wanted to write a story (like a tribute) about Yugi & Yami/ Atemu and the wonderful bond that exists between them. Enjoy and please review!
Boku no Hikari/ My Light
Darkness. Yami. That is the name that I chose for myself, since I don't remember my real name. Even my soul room can be described through this word: dark, full of secrets that even I don't know. When I sit here, on the cold stone chair surrounded by darkness I think about my light. He is the only one who helps me to keep going, even in the darkest shadows of my mind. I have learned so much from him, about kindness, friendship and compassion. The strength of tenderness that comes from light. Boku no Hikari. Yugi. With him by my side even the darkness seems less dense.
A soft knock at the door brought me back from my thoughts. My eyes widened when I saw who my visitor was.
- Aibou!
He came in shyly and gave me a warm smile.
-Here you are, mou hitori no boku! I couldn't find you elsewhere, so I came here...gomen ne, he added blushing.
-You don't have to apologize, I told him and got up from my chair to come closer, I should have senced you were looking for me. I'm impressed that you found me, I gave a small chuckle, even I have problems in finding my room sometimes. How did you manage? I asked, genuinely curious.
-I'm not sure...I just senced you.
-You're very good, aibou! I told him with a smile of my own. I'm so proud of you. How come you're looking for me? Did something happen?
He shook his head slowly.
-I just wanted to invite you to my room. Since I've already been in yours...
-I've never been to your room, aibou. Are you sure you want me there? I asked, a bit surprised. I don't want the darkness within me to affect Yugi's light. I would never allow that.
-Of course! Actually, I've been waiting to invite you for a while.
I nodded and we went to his room. On the way there Yugi asked:
-Were you lost in thoughts? Since you couldn't sence me.
-Yes, a bit. I was thinking about my past, fragments of memory scattered in darkness.
-Don't worry! I'm sure we'll find out about your past eventually. Just don't give up! He said encouragingly.
We entered his soul room. It was full of games and toys, bright and innocent. It was perfect for Yugi. As for me, I didn't belong there...
-Mou hitori no boku...you are here because you belong. I wouldn't be who I am without you! He said looking at me with determination.
At first I was surprised because I wasn't expecting him to read my mind, but then I found myself smiling. Our bond was as strong as ever. Thank you...aibou!
