Chapter 1
Six weeks. Six long weeks since his death and I still couldn't believe it. Gone forever. I'll never hear his laugh or deep masculine voice ever again.
I'll never feel his slender fingers brushing my blond bangs away from my forehead. I'll never feel his hugs or kisses ever again. It should have been me. I should have died. Not him.
He had such a horrible childhood. He should have lived to make it better. More cheerful and relaxing with a mother who cares. I've lived most of my life happily. I should have died. Not him.
Why didn't he at least take me with him! If I wasn't such a klutz he wouldn't have died!
IT'S ALL MY FAULT!

"Yugi. Have you at least tried to put together the puzzle?" Yugi looked up from his notebook and turned to look back in his chair. For the past six weeks he'd done nothing but sit at his desk and write songs. His neck throbbed from being bent down over a notebook.
His eyes blood shot, dark circles under his eyes from the lack of sleep. The pendant, which he learned two weeks earlier was called the Millennium Puzzle, stayed in the bag Sam had put it in. It now lay under his bed in the million gold pieces it was when he died. He was now thinner then what he was six weeks ago. He had stopped eating completely.
Letting the darkness of loneliness consume him entirely. Joey had disappeared completely along with Maigo after their master was sent away. Aya had refused to speak after his death ceremony. Kerry had gone to searching for a new client to manage through a singing cureer. Sam had gone back to Egypt where his husband went crazy with worry over Sam. Samara and Pachúa had gone back home. Promising to return once the winter was over.
"Grandpa...no I haven't. It brings too many painful memories." Yugi whispered turning back around and bending his head down to continue writing. He heard his grandpa sigh and walk up behind him. Placing a plate of warm lasagne beside Yugi's notebook.
"Yugi, I know you miss him...but please eat. He wouldn't want you to starve just for missing him. Don't you think you should live life to it's fullest for you and him?" Grandpa asked; Yugi looked up at his grandpa
"You're right. There is something I can do. Grandpa I need you to call Kerry Amoun for me while I go look for my old guitar!" Yugi said pushing his chair back and racing out of the room; Grandpa laughed
"It seems he's so tired he thinks he has enough energy." Grandpa muttered to himself as he walked out of Yugi's room and downstairs into the kitchen. Reaching the wall phone. He picked up the receiver and dialed the number.
The phone was answered after five rings.
"Hello Kaiba and Amoun residence." A young childish voice spoke; Grandpa laughed quietly as the long response.
"Hello Mokuba. Is Kerry there?" Grandpa asked politely. The voice on the other line practically squealed.
"Mr. Mutou! I didn't think you'd ever call! I mean it's been three weeks and when you said you'd deal with Yugi's depression, I didn't think you'd finish this quickly!" Mokuba said in a rush
"I didn't think I could do it either. Yugi told me to call Kerry. So if you'd please give him the phone." Grandpa said chuckling at Mokuba's childish behavior. There was some shuffling before someone finally spoke on the line again.
"Hello? Amoun Kerry speaking."
"Kerry. Yugi would like to speak to you." Kerry gasped on the other end
"You finally got him to do more then sit at his desk and write? Wow, you're like some miracle worker. I should have gotten you for..." Kerry's voice trailed off; Grandpa didn't need to ask him to finish for he knew what Kerry's mind intended to say. Sighing he heard Yugi run down the stairs.
"Grandpa, did you call him?" Yugi asked cheerfully; Grandpa nodded and handed the phone to Yugi.
"Kerry?" Yugi asked
"Yeah, Yugi. How's it going?" Kerry asked somewhat nervous on what Yugi would want. Yugi took a deep breathe. Letting it out he smiled to himself at what he was about to ask.
"Kerry, I would want to sign up as an artist. With you as my manager. I want to let him live his dream, through me." Kerry gasped in shock then smiled.
"That's the nicest thing anyone could do for him. Alright. Come up with some songs and I'll plan everything. Seto and Aya will pick you up tomorrow, so we can go over everything and make it official." Yugi practically screamed in joy.
"OH THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!" Yugi yelled jumping up and down "I'll be there, you can count on that!" Yugi hung up the phone and turned to his grandpa. A toothy grin on his face.
"Well Yugi. How did it go?" Grandpa asked smiling
"Grandpa, I'm going to be a singer just for him and he'll be able to live his dream through me! I have to go tell him!" Yugi exclaimed running to the door. Slipping on his black and white sneakers and pulling on his white fleece coat. Running out of the house and to the Domino Graveyard. Running as fast as his short legs would carry him. His footsteps crunching on the freshly made snow from the night before. The snow had come so suddenly the citizens of Domino had no choice but to stay home from work and school.
Finally arriving at the gates that lead into the Domino Graveyard, he stopped running. Opening the gates he walked into the snow covered graveyard. The snow was untouched here. Which meant no one had come to visit any of their loved once since snow had fallen. Smiling to himself Yugi walked down the path he had memorized. The path led to his grave stone.
Reaching the familiar grave stone, Yugi knelt own in the snow, not caring if he got wet or not. Brushing the snow off the name on the grave stone. Shivering from the cold snow Yugi wrapped his coat around himself tighter.
"Hey. I know I haven't come and visited since the ceremony but I just wanted to tell you that I'm planning on becoming a singer. That way you can be with me at all times. You can live your dream through me." Yugi whispered to the grave stone. He brushed his cold numb fingers over the carved name on the stone. He smiled and let out a shaky breath. A white cloud of warm breath spread over his pink nose and cheeks.
"I really miss you. We all do. Aya hasn't said a word since that day. I'm sorry, I know it's my fault. If I hadn't been such a klutz then you'd be living your dream and we would be together." A gush of cold air ruffled Yugi's hair. Shivering he stood up blowing a small kiss to the grave stone.
"I'd better get going. Looks like it's gonna be a cold night. So...I'll come by some time tomorrow if I can. Bye for now." Yugi said turning around and running out of the graveyard.

A/N: Yeah I know short...so umm review and tell me what you think! The second chapter will be up soon hopefully. OH and since I need a spell/grammar checker I'll be asking questions at the end of each chapter. If you answer it correctly then I'll send you a message and tell you that you get the spell/grammar check the next chapter. I'll have a different spell/grammar checker for each chapter. So here's the question:
How Did Atem die?
I know pretty easy right? I hope you hear from you all soon again! Till then! Ja Ne!
