A Second Chance
Disclaimer: I do not owe YuGiOh or any of its characters. I do only owe this fanfic, and my own characters, and that would be Rei, Kathy, the psychopath, Eclipse, Shadow, and the Counselors. Ma'at and the other Egyptian gods belong to the Ancient Egyptians.
I made this fanfic cause I got the idea of it. I wanted to make a fanfic with Ma'at and with a bit crime.

"Talking"
'Thinking'
Chapter 1 The TragedyIt was a Friday evening; it was a week before Christmas. It was snow everywhere. Yugi was running down a street. He was going to meet Yami. They were finally together, and were going to have a date. Yami was waiting for him in Battle City. Yami had acted strange all day, like he was hiding something. Yugi ran as fast as he could in the snow. When he ran past an alley, someone grabbed him, putting a hand to cover his mouth, so that he couldn't scream, and one taking a grip on his wrist. Yugi was pulled into the alley. He tried to escape, but the other person was too strong. Yugi got a good look at his attacker. It was a sinister looking male, between 25-35 years old. He had brown black hair and evil eyes. The man took a hold on Yugi's throat to strangle him. Yugi tried to scream, but no sound came. He did the only thing he could think of. /Yami! Help/ he cried out in their mind link.
Yami stood outside a restaurant, when he heard Yugi cry. /Yami! Help/ He looked up. /Yugi? What's wrong/Someone tries to kill me! I can't breath.../ Yami became scared. /Yugi, where are you/ The reply did take some time to come. /In an alley. Yami...Don't give up on life...I love you.../ Yami felt Yugi's presece slowly disappear. /Yugi? Yugi! YUGI/ Tears came from Yami's eyes. He ran into the restaurant and asked them to call the police. "Why? Is something wrong?" the waitress asked. "My boyfriend is in danger! He hasn't came here yet! He's never late. He said he was under attack!" Yami said, upset. The waitress, named Rei, could sense that he was serous. She dialed the number to the police, and told them about it.
Yugi couldn't breath, and the darkness was slowly coming. He saw memories of his friends, family and Yami. He was sad that he had to leave them so soon, and like this. He was worried about Yami too; last time when Dartz had stolen Yugi's soul, Yami had been a wreck. He could only hope that Yami would continue to live. Soon the darkness surrounded him, and he couldn't feel his body anymore...
The police soon arrived to the restaurant. They talked to Yami, and asked him how Yugi looked like. "Like me." The officers looked strangely at him. "Didn't you say that he was your boyfriend?" the male officer asked. "Yes, he is. We're not brothers. We come from different families. We just look like each other. He's shorter, have amethyst eyes, he's a bit pale, and looks like a child." The female officer looked softly at Yami. "Do you have something with his scent? We're going to use dogs to find him". "Yeah, I got his deck of duel monsters. Will that do? If not i could ask someone of my friends to come with some of his clothes." The female officer smiled. "It'll do just fine." She walked towards the car, and opened one of the doors. Out came a German shepherd. "This is Jake. He's the best tracker on the station. He'll find your friend no matter what." She let Jake sniff on Yugi's deck. Then he sniffed the air to get a clue from which direction this scent could come from nearby. He found it after a while,
and started to lead the officers and Yami to the place he could smell the scent come from. After about 10 minutes they entered an alley. Jake lifted his head and ran to a snowdrift further inside the alley. There he laid down beside something on the snowdrift. Yami felt his heart beat faster. He was scared, scared of what it was lying there. The officers walked to Jake, while Yami couldn't even move. The male officer touched the thing lying on the snowdrift. He shook his head slowly. The female officer looked sadly at Yami, who felt his heart sink. He walked closer to confirm his thoughts. Tears ran down his cheeks, when he saw Yugi's dead body lying on the snowdrift. "Is that him?" the female officer asked sadly. "Y-yes" Yami cried like it was no end to it. "This is car 55431. We have a dead body of a young boy here. We need assistance, and send the forensics." The male called into his radio. "They'll be here any minute." "Do you want us to call someone?" the female officer asked. Then a white haired boy came. "Yami? What are you doing here? I thought you'd be on a date with Yugi?" the British accented boy asked. Yami looked at him. "Ryou?" Ryou saw that Yami was crying, and knew something bad had happened. Ryou walked to Yami. "Yami. What's wrong?" "Yugi...he's..." Yami pointed towards Yugi's dead body . Ryou could feel tears on his cheeks too, and sorrow came. He couldn't imagine how Yami felt, but he knew it had to be a lot worse than what he felt. So he did the only thing he could think of. He hugged Yami to comfort him. "Excuse me, are you one of his friends?" the female officer asked. "Yes... I'm Ryou Bakura. And I was Yugi's friend too... Who did thius to him?" "We don't know yet. Could you take care of your friend?" "Y-es." Soon the forensics and more officers came. They cordoned off inside the alley, took pictures, and samples of things on and around Yugi's body. Then some men from the mortuary took Yugi's body away to the mortuary to do a post mortem. Yami now sat beside Ryou, still crying. His eyes were full of pain and despair. Ryou called for Bakura on their ind link, he needed his help. Bakura? Where are you?
Not far from there Bakura sat on a bench in the Park. Bakura? Where are you? I'm in the Park. Why? I need some help... With what? Yami Bakura sighed. What's wrong with the baka Pharaoh? And where are you? In an alley. Please come. Oh alright Bakura pulled out the Millennium Ring. "Find Ryou" he ordered it, and it started to lead him to where Ryou, and Yami were.
"It's my fault..." Ryou looked at Yami. "No, Yami. It's not your fault. You didn't know that this would happen." "I should have been with him... I abandoned him, when he needed me the most..." "Shut up, Pharaoh!" a voice yelled in the end of the alley. It was Bakura. He stared disbelieving around him, glared at the officers, and then looked at Ryou and Yami. "What in the seven hells happened here! Why are all the coppers here? And what the hell is wrong with the Pharaoh!" Yami didn't really want to cry in front of Bakura, but he couldn't stop the tears. "Bakura, this is not a good time to do that." Ryou said, even he crying. Bakura didn't want Ryou to cry, but he didn't know how to comfort him. But why was the Pharaoh crying too? "Ryou, please don't cry. Tell me what's happened?" Bakura said, with an unusually soft voice. Ryou sobbed a little, and looked at Yami. "Yugi's been" "Been what?" "Yugi's been murdered." Ryou flung himself in Bakura's arms, crying. Bakura embraced his hikari. Now he knew why
Yami and Ryou had cried, and why the coppers were there. 'It must be terrible to lose your hikari, the one you love. To lose the one you've swore to protect. I can't even describe how I would feel if it were Ryou who'd been murdered.' Bakura thought. For once he felt sad for the Pharaoh. "Who did it?" "We don't know. The only one who saw the murderer was Yugi..." Ryou said. "And we might never do. Sometimes the police can't get any clues or evidence, when that happen they close the case and the murderer gets away." Ryou sobbed. Yami stiffened, which Bakura noticed. "Don't worry Yami. If they can't find him, we will. There's no way that he can get away with killing a hikari." Yami looked at Bakura. "What did you just call me?" he asked surpriced. "Yami. What?" Can't I call you that? Geesh I'm not that bad that I tease you or anything when you're sad. I know how it feels to lose someone you love..." Yami looked astoneished. 'The Tomb Robber's really changed a lot. I think it's thanks to Ryou. Hikaris have a
strange power over us yamis...but my hikari's gone... what will I do now? Yugi...' The female officer came towards them, Jake beside her. "Does he have any relatives? We must inform them about this, as sad as it is..." Yami looked up. "Yeah... his Grandpa. We live in the Kame Game shop." "And do you have any?" "No. They died a long time ago." 'In fact over 3000 years ago.' He thought. "I'm sorry. I know this must be hard for you... I'll drive you home." Ryou and Bakura stood up+. "We're not leaving him alone!" they said in unison. She smiled at them a little. "Alright. I'll drive you all to his home. And I'll be forced to inform Yugi's Grandfather too... That's the worst thing about this job." She sighed. They went to her car, sat in and drove off.
Yugi's Grandpa didn't take the news about his grandson's death very well, now he only had Yami... Still he took it a lot better than Yami did. He thanked Kathy (the female officer) for telling him though. When she were about to leave, he followed her to the door. "Please, find the one who did this." he begged her. "I'll try. I promise." Then she went away, back to the crime scene. Sugoroku closed the door, and sat down in the living room, where Yami, Bakura and Ryou still sat. No one said a word in several minutes. Then Ryou broke the silence. "I can't believe that Yugi's gone..." Sugoroku looked at him. "He's not really gone..." "What do you mean?" Bakura asked. Sugoroku watched them with wise and gently eyes. "As long as we remember him, he'll always be with us in our hearts" "You're right" Ryou said. 'How could I forget him...' Yami thought, slipped his hand down in his pocket to a small box.
Somewhere else in a place with white walls and pillars stood a group of men and women. Through a small pond they could see everything that happened on earth. They weren't very happy to what happened this evening. "What should we do?" a younger male asked. One of the elders watched the Pharaoh on earth careful. "We shouldn't do anything. We're not supposed to intervene in the human's lives." Another male said. Then a woman stormed inside. The elder man , who had watched the Pharoah looked up. "What are you doing here, Ma'at?" She glared at the younger ones, and turned to him. "Why I'm here?" She said with a soft voice, but her eyes flashed dangerously. "Well, a very young soul's been takened too early, and not just any soul, one so innocent and pure that there's no one alike it" "We are well aware of that" he said calm. "And you're just standing here?" "So what!" one of the younger males said, disrespectful. Ma'at's eyes narrowed. "Watch your tongue, boy. You are not to talk to me like that to me! I've been here for thousands of years; I've followed all Pharaohs including Atemu Yami together with the other Egyptian Gods. And that includes Yugi too, when he was Atemu's hikari. I will not accept his death, nor will the others of my family." The elder male nodded. "Alright, if all of your family won't accept this, you are free to take the soul with you. It'll need a new body though. And there's one condition..." "What?"
