The Unknown Darkness

Chapter One

K: Can't take it anymore! *Dies* Y+Y: O__o

Yami: That's a first.

Yugi: Well she does have finals and we're not helping by bugging her and she promises this is the last one… second last one… I think.

Yami: Nah… I bet new stories will keep going and going.

Yugi: *shrugs* Maybe but this is weird. She isn't even into X-men stuff.

Yami: What are X-men?

Yugi: It's about mutants.

Yugi: You'll find out Yami-chan and can you please vote on which story would have the next chapter up. Klonoa-chan can't seem to choose which story chapter to start. These are the stories Chibi Yugi, Kanata Kara, Kute Kitty, Yugiohbloopers, Detective Conan, Pharaoh, Unknown Darkness and another one she's making and putting up later.

Yami: @__@ too many…

K: X__x

/Yami/

//zzzz…//

Yugi sighed, and then he turned to his window in the airplane to see they were about to land.

/Yami we're here. /

//zzzz… huh? What? Oh//

/*Giggling* Yeah we're here/

//Well we're not actually on the ground. Anyway why are we here, aibou?//

/Grandpa signed me up for an exchange program. /

//Oh, I'm going back to sleep than//

/Yami…/

//*Chuckling* Just kidding aibou//

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Yugi had his luggage and was waiting outside for the person from the institute to pick him up.

//Where are we going aibou?//

/Um... Xavier's institution. I think he's a friend of jiichan/

//What kind of name is Xavier?//

Yugi giggled, then looked up to see a jeep with a man leaning against it. He looked dangerous to Yugi and he wasn't sure if he should approach him.

//Aibou just go ask him if he's from the institute//

/Demo…/

In the back of Yugi's mind he could feel Yami give him a reassuring smile, //I'm right here aibou. I won't let anybody hurt you.//

/O-okay/

Yugi walked over dragging his luggage with some difficulty. The man watched Yugi intently, which Yugi noticed and it made him more nervous.

"You Yugi Mutou?" the man asked when Yugi reached his jeep.

"H-hai!" Yugi looked up at him through his blonde bangs.

"Name's Logan and I'm taking you to the institute," he said then grabbed Yugi's bags and threw them to the back of his jeep. He opened the door for Yugi who climbed into the seat while Yami came out translucent, so only Yugi can see and feel him sat in the back behind his light.

Logan climbed into his seat and started the jeep driving out of the airport parking lot.

Yugi was looking outside the jeep not really wanting to start a conversation with intimidating man next to him.

//It's okay aibou I sense he will do you no harm// Yami said wrapping his ghost like arms around Yugi's shoulders from the back.

Yugi relaxed even though he couldn't really feel his yami's touch but when they made contact like this he could feel his whole body tingle.

/O-okay Yami I guess I shouldn't judge a person by their looks/

"We're her kid," Logan stopped the jeep.

Yugi gave him a sideways glance, "I'm sixteen."

Logan was getting the luggage and stopped at Yugi's comment, looking him over, "Right…"

They both entered the building and a few teens and couple of grown ups were there to greet them.

"Hello you must be Yugi Mutou. I am Professor Charles Xavier," greeted a man in a wheel chair.

Yugi bowed then held a hand up, which Xavier shook, "Nice to meet you."

Xavier nodded, "Scott, Jean please show young Yugi to his room."

"Okay professor," said Scott who wore sunglasses, and he took Yugi's luggage from Logan.

"Come with us," motioned the red hear that most likely was Jean.

Yugi looked at the group of teens then turned to follow Jean and Scott.

After Yugi was out of sight every teen was talking.

"I can't believe we have a duel monsters expert here," remarking Evan.

"Are you sure he's sixteen? He looks like he's twelve," commented Kitty.

Logan walked over to Xavier, "The kid seems nice and quiet though he doesn't smell normal."

"How so Logan?" Ororo asked.

"He smells kind of ancient."

"Hmm," Xavier closed his eyes.

"Professor?" Ororo questioned.

Xavier opened his eyes, "He seems to have some sort of shield around his mind. It's quite strong."

"Should we be worried?" Ororo asked.

Xavier shook his head, "Not yet, not until we know him better."

"He smells safe enough," Logan shrugged, "But when I'm near him it feels like there's another presence that I can't see around."

"Presence?" they both said.

"Here's your room," Jean said opening the door while Scott carried the cases into the room.

"Arigatou."

Jean and Scott stared at Yugi confused.

Yugi blushed, "I mean thank you."

"No problem," Scott said.

"You can stay here and get comfortable and we'll call you for dinner," Jean said.

Yugi nodded, and they left him in the room.

Yami appeared sitting on the bed, "This looks nice."

Yugi smiled, walking over to Yami and sat in his lap, "Yeah they all seem nice."

Yami laid his head on Yugi's wrapping his arms around Yugi's narrow and slim waist, "This place feels strange though."

Yugi looked up at him, "Strange?"

"Yeah but we'll worry about that later," he said then nuzzled Yugi's neck nibbling it a little making the little one giggle.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Yami: That was strange…

K: X___x

Yugi: *giggling*

Yami: Um… review… and vote on which story should have a new chapter.

Yugi: Review!
