YxH lover: Hi peoples! Before you say anything, I know the prologue sounds like Yamiyugifangirls part of the story Darkness in the Light, but this is different ok?

Yami: Ok?

YxH lover:*sighs* People were bugging me last time I was going to do this, but I desided to do the prologue like this or I would have to do 20 other chapters. -_-

Yugi:*smirks* I still kick ass.


Prologue

In an old warehouse, Yugi approached Yami in an all tight leather outfit like one that Yami would wear.

Yami looked up at Yugi. "Yugi, please. Don't do this. This isn't who you are. You are not a killer." he begged. He just wanted his Hikari back.

"I've already told you. The Hikari you used to know died long ago. I'm all that's left." Yugi growled.

Yami gulped. He had wanted to save Yugi, not get killed before he managed it. I failed him again Yami thought.

Yugi formed a sword out of Shadow magic. "It ends here." Yugi said. He raised the sword and prepared to strike.

Yami squeezed his eyes shut, waiting for the final blow.

"YUGI! STOP!"

Yugi looked up and saw that all of the others were there. He growled his eyes narrowed into slints.

Yami recognized the voice as Heba's. How did they find me? he asked himself.

"So, it would appear that the great Pharaoh still had to depend on them to come and save you. I suppose you lied to me about this being just between us." Yugi said, glaring at Yami.

Yami struggled to get up. "Yugi, I didn't lie to you. I didn't tell them where to come." Yami said.

Bakura stepped forward. "He's telling the truth, Yugi. We found out through other means." Bakura said.

Yugi smirked. "It doesn't matter. It'll save me the trouble of trying to find you later." Yugi remarked.

"Yugi, this has to stop." Atemu said.

"No, Atemu. It won't be stopped until I have my revenge." Yugi said.

"Yugi, revenge isn't the answer. I found that out a long time ago. It only makes things worse. You won't get rid of the pain through revenge, Yugi." Bakura said.

"Let me be the judge of that." Yugi retorted.

"Guys, be ready." Atemu said.

"You four stay back." Marik said, glancing back at Serenity, Mokuba, Tea, and Tristan.

All four nodded.

"Can I assume that we're the last line of defense again?" Ryou asked.

"It's better that way." Atemu said.

Yugi didn't have time to deal with them. I was supposed to be able to deal with Yami before I had to deal with them. They have screwed everything up. I don't want to have to deal with them until after I deal with that bastard Yugi thought angrily.

Allow us to restrain them for you, Master. You can deal with the Pharaoh and then turn your attention to them. They can see what will happen to them once you have taken your anger out on the Pharaoh.

Do it Yugi commanded.

The room around everyone became dark.

"What's going on?" Serenity asked fearfully.

"The room is being flooded with Shadow magic." Bakura said in shock.

"It's Yugi!" Joey exclaimed.

"We have to stop him!" Marik said, starting to move.

Before they had the chance to do anything, tendrils of Shadow magic shot out and wrapped around all of them, pulling them backwards and secured them to the wall.

"Hey! What the hell is this?" Bakura shouted as he tried to use his own Shadow magic to get free.

Atemu, Marik, and Seto tried the same thing.

Heba, Joey, Ryou, and Malik tried to use their Light magic to get out of it, but their magic didn't work, either.

"You're not going to interfere with what I have planned." Yugi said coldly. He was looking at them all with anger and hatred.

"You know, maybe we would have been better off staying out of Yugi's way and letting him do to them what he wanted that first day." Bakura said.

"Bakura!" Ryou scolded.

"What? At least we wouldn't be on Yugi's hit list. And we wouldn't be in the mess that we are in now." Bakura said.

"Bakura, stop it! We all know what the consequences will be if Yugi succeeds. We have to get out of this and stop him." Atemu said.

"What about Yami?" Tea asked fearfully, looking down at where Yami was standing on shaky feet, staring at Yugi who looked ready to strike.

"Until we get out of this, he's on his own." Atemu said regretfully. He wanted to help his brother, but he knew that he couldn't at the present time.

Yugi had long stopped listening to what anyone else was saying and focused on Yami again. "It's just you and me again." Yugi said.

"Yugi, please stop. Kill me if it will make you feel better, but leave the others alone. They didn't do the things that I did." Yami said.

"No. They are just as much at fault as you are. They will pay as well, but you are the one who is going to pay first." Yugi growled.

Damn it! Why did I have to do all this? Why did I have to let all this happen? Yami asked himself, knowing it was over for him.

Heba got an idea. It might just work Heba thought.

Yugi threw out his hand and sent Yami crashing into the ground again.

Yami couldn't stop the pained cry that escaped his lips as he crashed painfully to he floor once more.

Yugi seemed rather satisfied by the pained cry that had escaped from Yami.

"YAMI!" Tea cried fearfully.

"Damn it!" Bakura growled.

"He's a dead man." Marik said.

"It's over." Yugi said as he started to walk forward.

It's now of never Heba thought.

Yugi was almost at Yami.

[[[Yugi! Stop!]]] Heba shouted through the mind link.

Ryou and Malik winced at the shout through their link.

Yugi froze.

[Heba, what are doing?] Ryou asked.

Heba didn't answer. [[[Yugi, please stop this. You don't want to kill Yami. I know that you don't. You want him to understand the kind of pain that you are in, but killing him is not the answer. Deep down, you know that, too.]]] Heba said.

[[[[Just get out of my head, Heba! You don't know anything about the way I am feeling!]]]] Yugi retorted.

[[Yugi, he's right. You will regret killing him. He's your Yami. You care about despite what he's done. Ryou cared about Bakura despite his abuse, and I cared about Marik despite the fact that he took over my life and did things that I didn't want him to. You are no different. You don't want to kill him.]] Malik said.

[[[[STOP IT! ALL OF YOU!]]]] Yugi demanded.

The group was stunned.

"What's going on?" Tristan asked.

"Who cares? Yugi stopped, so that's a good thing." Joey said.

Bakura looked at Ryou, Malik, and Heba and then down at Yugi. He saw the glossy-eyed look in their eyes. "The link. Ryou, Malik, and Heba are talking to Yugi through the link." Bakura said.

"Maybe they can reason with him." Marik said.

"No. They won't. They'll try to get Yugi to tell Yami, through words, all of the pain that he's been through." Atemu said.

"I hope it works." Serenity said.

[[[[Just stop it! I need this!]]]] Yugi said.

[[No, Yugi. The Shadow magic has made you think that you need revenge against Yami.]] Malik said.

[You know that you don't want this, Yugi. You just want Yami to see the damage done.] Ryou said gently.

[[[[No! You're wrong! I do want this! I do!]]]] Yugi said. He sounded as if he was trying to convince himself over them.

[[[Tell him, Yugi. Tell Yami how he's hurt you. Tell him the pain you're in. Tell him what you feel. Make him see the pain you've been in. Make him see how wrong he's been.]]] Heba said.

Yugi was confused. He knew what he felt like he wanted to do, but he knew that he didn't want Yami to die. Deep down, he knew that.

No, Master! Do not listen to them! Listen to us! You will feel better if you kill him! Kill the Pharaoh! Make him suffer for all that he has caused! Do not let them blind you to the truth!

Yugi lowered his head so that his bangs covered his eyes.

Yami wasn't sure why Yugi had stopped attacking him, but was thankful for the moment of reprieve from the attack.

The others were shocked.

"What's going on?" Mokuba asked.

"I don't know." Atemu said.

"Maybe they were able to reason with him" Tea said hopefully.

"It's too soon to know for sure." Seto said.

There was a tense silence that seemed to last for an eternity give the current situation that they were in. The waiting was more torture than anything.

Finally, Yugi spoke.

"Why?" Yugi asked.

Yami blinked, confused. "What?" Yami asked.

"Why?" Yugi repeated. He jerked his head. His eyes were pure black full of hate. They were worse than ever. His eyes were filled with murder. There was revenge, hate, murder, and an evil look in those eyes. "Why did you abandon me? Why did you throw me aside like I meant nothing? Why did you do everything in your power to hurt me?" Yugi shouted.

This shocked everyone.

Yugi's voice was laced with hate.

"Why did you ignore me? Why did you lie about what you were feeling? Why did you turn your back on me?" Yugi screamed as the Shadow Magic grow more

There was now tinge of hopelessness in Yugi's voice.

The sound of Yugi's voice was so murderful that there wasn't a fearful look in the room.

"Why did you close your link that night? Why did you let those men rape me? Why did you ignore me when I cried out to you for help? Why didn't you listen to me when I tried to tell you?" Yugi asked.

Yami felt those words tear at his heart, but he felt even worse. He could see the hate that filled Yugi's eyes. He now saw what he had truly done to Yugi on an emotional level. He saw the hate, and he knew that Yugi was going to kill him with no mercy.

Now, Yugi had more fight in him. He have more strength to do anything to hurt his former Yami

"Why do you hate me? What did I do to make you hate me so much?" Yugi asked in a voice that could be described only as murderous. He then smirked evilly and the Shadow magic swirled around him.

Yugi growled."You will all pay for all the pain I went through! I'll kill you all!" the shadow swirled around him and then disappeared with Yugi no where to be found.

"YUGI!"


YxH lover: How was that?

Yami:*in tears and ran away*

YxH lover: Um...anyway, please read and review!
