Yu-Gi-Oh Fanfic
Yugi meets Kimberlea chapter 1Yugi lay awake in his bed. It was almost midnight and he wasn't really tired. Yami floated beside him.
"So uhh Yugi, you never told me why you live with your grandfather." The sky outside was dark and the white moon was high. Yugi lay awake on his bed, looking up through the sky window that was above him, Yami floated beside him, he too was looking up.
"Huh? Oh right, well its kinda a long story that I don't really remember." Yugi sighed and tried to remember that dreadful night.
"Is it a painful memory?" Yami turned to face him, he could tell that Yugi didn't really want to talk about it. Yugi didn't say anything in reply and turned away from Yami.
"Arg, I keep picturing this girl's face in my mind but I have no idea who she is." Yami said with a hint of annoyance, but it was true, he was seeing a picture of a girl, he just didn't know who she was. The girl had brownish-blondish hair with violet eyes and tanned skin, she wore ancient clothing made of animal skins.
"Maybe your memory is slowly coming back."Yugi turned back to face him. Yami thought for a moment on the possiblity of his memory coming back but the chances of it was slim.
"No, I doubt it, its just well, I don't know. Never mind, go to sleep." Yami disappeared on a frustrated note. Yugi shrugged and closed his big, violet eyes, while he thought of the night his parents died.
"The day they died..."
A young girl with blond hair and purple streaks walked alone down the dark streets of Domino City. The city of Domino was a big and full of huge corporations like Kaiba Corp. Were are almost at the shop Kimberlea Kimberla thoughts entered Kimberlea's mind. I know Kimberlea's reply was. She new that this was the town her brother was supposed to be in. Her violet eyes gazed around at the different buildings. I will find my brother soon I hope Kimberlea thought. Of course you will, and I will see Atemu again, soon . Yes soon ...
As she continued down the street she came across a games shop that was said to be owned by a man named Sugoroku, her grandfather. At this point Kimberlea knew she was on the right track, and so with a gulp she trudged up to the glass double doors. She lightly tapped the front door.
Yugi lifted up his head up as he heard a light knocking sound on the front door. "Who would be knocking at this time? They must be stupid or something, the shop is closed." Yugi sat up and got out of bed. The good thing about this situation was that he wasn't that tired and he wasn't really asleep before he heard the knocking sound. He quietly snuck downstairs knowing that his grandfather wouldn't hear him since he wasn't a soft sleeper. He went into the shop part of the house, shutting the door behind him, and marched over to the front door.
"Okay
what do you want?"Yugi said as
he opened the door about halfway. Yugi had expected to see some guy
who was a regular at the store or something but to his surprise there
was a cute girl with blond hair and unusual purple streaks.
"Ummm
uhhh...I umm..." Yugi's face turned bright red
since he had just gotten up out of bed and was not really dressed to
be in front of a pretty girl like her.
Hahahahaha, wow, was not expecting
this... Yami laughed inside Yugi's mind.
Yami...can you
take over please? I can't handle this sort of humiliation...
Hahahaha, nope, its all yours!
Well aren't you a
great friend. Yami did not reply but Yugi knew that he was still
laughing.
Kimberlea looked at the boy standing in front of her. She knew immediately it was Yugi. It's him, it's really him her thoughts said over and over again. "Yugi" she said in a low voice. Her eyes started to tear up. Tears of happness fell down her face. Her violet eyes shined bright, her hair sparkled with the street lights. This was perfect her brother was right there in front of her after all these years. She smiled. It was really him. He looks like Atemu Kimberla thoughts said enetering Kimberlea mind, Yes I guess he dose. I think Atemu is in the Millennium puzzle around his neak my brothers neak Kimberlea replied Hmm.. then it will be soon I will see my long lost love...
"Ummm...uh..yeah,
thats me...why are you crying?" Yugi was sort
of lost for words. First of all, this unknown person knew his name
and was crying obviously because she was looking for him or
something. Probably another crazy fan or something...
Maybe, we've seen fans cry over seeing you but those fans had
more energy, this one seems sad, almost as if she knew you or
something. Are you sure you don't know her? Yugi though for a
moment on what Yami had said. It was true, they have both seen crazy
fans who would scream and cry because they were shocked to see him or
something but this girl had a different aura and energy level. It was
strange, but the strangest thing was why she had to come around his
house late in the night and all she could say was "Yugi."
It's
kinda freaky don't you think Yami?
She may be pretty but
is she so much as lay a hand on you I will come out and take of
it.
You can't hit a girl Yami, thats just not right,
besides, I don't think she is going to try to pull
something...
Yugi...we've dealt with creeps before and
you know that our enemies will do anything to get rid of us. You
remember all the foes we've faced, all the times they have tried to
kill us over and over again, and all the times they came close to
suceeding. This could just be another trap set by some crazy
lunatic.
You're right, we shouldn't trust her, I should
get her out of here as soon as possible. I'll call you if I need you.
The connection was broken but Yugi knew that Yami would still be
watching.
"Look, ummm, I don't know your name but, you need to go, its late and I was sort of trying to go to sleep before you came and this isn't really a good time. If you want an autograph then you'll have to come back in the morning, okay? Well goodbye."And with that Yugi stepped back and began to shut the door.
Kimberlea looked wide eyed at her brother. He didn't know who she was. How could he not know who she was, she was his sister. Her violet filled with a sadness, There was something wrong How could Yugi not know who I am Kimberlea said to Kimberla in her head, Thats wired, and if this dosn't work I won't see Atemu again was Kimberla's reply Thats it I know what to do Kimberlea put her foot in the door so Yugi couldn't close it. "Atemu" she said in a way that made it sound like a Egyptian accent. I hope this works Kimberla...
"Atemu what?
I am sorry but I don't know who that is...look I got to go so would
you please leave?" Yugi was getting more
freaked out by the second. This girl, she seemed to be unpredictable,
she could possible even get aggressive. Yugi did not want to take the
chance, this girl was obviously nuts.
Yami, what do we do? Do
you have any idea on what this girl is talking about?
Absolutely
no clue, this situation could get dangerous and I don't trust her one
bit. I think we should switch. Yugi thought for a moment, should
he switch places with Yami? He was right, this situation could get
out of hand and so far it was heading in that direction. He knew he
needed to come up with an answer quick before Yami makes up his mind.
He bit is lip, Yami was stronger than him and willing to fight off a
girl if needed, it looks like he would have to.
Okay, lets do
this!
The puzzle glowed brightly and the light engulfed Yugi's body entirely. When the light dimmed the small, young looking boy had been replaced with a taller and more adult looking male. He stared down at the girl, his eyes borring holes into hers. "Leave now."
Kimberlea looked at him with wide eyes. This is Ateme, your right he dose look like Yugi but I think you should handle this now alright Kimberlea said to Kimberla. Yes fine I will, it is Atemu I know it is him, he has the same funny hair and the same dark eyes he has always had Kimberlea lifted up her millennium bracelets and whispered something that so that Atemu couldn't hear. Then she changed, her hair was now a blondish brownish color and she was a bit but not much taller then Kimberlea. "Atemu' Kimberla said
Yami jumped back when she saw the girl change instantly,
some-what like he had done with Yugi. "Look lady, I don't know
who you are, what you are, or who you are talking about. Now before
things get out of hand I suggest you leave now! Also, tell your
leader or whoever you are working for that they will have to work a
lot harder to catch us. Now begone" Yami ordered. He would have
to use force if she would not leave.
Yugi, I seriously do not
know what is going on but this girl has some sort of millenium item
that I don't know about. Obviously this item has a spirit but I
don't know who the spirit is or what she is talking about. This is
not good Yugi, not good at all.
Kimberla looked into Atemu eyes. "You have a problem, Atemu what is wrong with you, And Yugi, you don't remember you own sister. What is going on. Wait I know, I know what's going on, Atemu you upset I have retuned in a new body, I can't believe I once loved you Atemu, You have the nerve to do this, Kimberlea and I have searched far and wide for you two, Are you telling me it was all for nothing" Kimberla had a serious look in her eyes, but she didn't really mean the part of she couldn't believe she love him. In fact inside she still had a passion for him. No wait she doesn't she has a hatred towards him right? O but she wouldn't let Kimberlea know that O no. All this time she had told her that Atemu was her boyfriend. Just forget it Kimberla it's over Kimberlea told Kimberla No it's not over, yet...
"For
the last time my name is not Atemu, it's Yugi, and I don't have a
sister! Leave now!" Yami screamed, he was
getting more and more frustraited by the second. Both he and Yugi had
no idea who this Atemu person was and yet this girl keeps
persisting.
Wait Yami! Let me change back!
Okay,
if that is what you want...
There was once
again a flash of light and the more mature looking Yugi disappeared
and the smaller, child-like one appeared. "Kimberlea?"Yugi whispered.
You know this person? Yami
questioned with a frustraited tone.
Kimberla looked at Yugi. Looks like we are getting somewhere Kimberlea want to go out now, he is your brother Kimberla said to Kimberlea in her head. Uh huh, I hope this turns out all right though. Kimberla lifted her millennium bracelets and then She disappeared leaving Kimberlea to face her brother. "Yugi" she said looking straight at him. It looked like she had been crying all this time. Dry tears were on her face and new one struggled down her face.
The memories of his sister and the night that his parents died flooded into him. Yugi remembered how Kimberlea had pushed him out of the flames to save his life but she did not have enough time to make it out herself. When the firemen inspected the rubble, they found evidence that had led them to presume that Kimberlea had died in the fire with her parents. Yugi was said to be the only survivor, a miracle, but why had Kimberlea chose this time to return to him? "Kimberlea...Wait a second! How can I know that you are who you say you are! You obviously have some sort of spirit attached to your mind and you obviously have some sort of millennium item, but how can I trust you from this evidence? Also, Kimberlea was said to be dead, we even held service for her, and now here you are in the flesh. " Yugi had a right to suspect the girl even his she had a resemblance to him.
You never told me you had a sister! Are
there other things that you think you should fill me in on or what?
Yami was obviously angry, like who wouldn't be if you found out that
the person you shared a body with had secrets that was kept from you.
She was supposed to be dead Yami! I didn't want to tell you
because I didn't want to bring it up and I didn't want to
remember!
Well sorry but I have a right to know, you
can't just leave me out like this!
Who's leaving who
out? This girl's spirit keeps calling you Atemu, and you say you
don't know her!
I don't! You should trust me by now, we
have been sharing a body for a long time now and I have told you all
what I know!
Trust? You say this stuff about trust but
you don't trust me! You assume that I am keeping secrets on purpose
or something?
I never said that Yugi!
Yeah
well you implied it, you know what, just stop talking to me for the
rest of the night! The connection was broken, leaving one angry
spirit and one angry boy.
Kimberlea looked at Yugi with a gentle look in her eyes. "You have every right to be suspicious of me, Yugi, but you have to believe me it's me Yugi. You don't know this but on the night of the fire..." she stopped and a whole group of tears fell down her face. She had to tell him. How she ran deep into the forest behind there home. She was so scared; she didn't know what to do. She ran and ran until she could run no more. That very night she had slept in the forest. She had pretty much pass out underneath the tree. Then in the morning she went back to there home and it was gone. All that was left was the ashes left over from the house. She immediately went to the police so she could find out where to go. The police thought she was crazy. Was she crazy? She thought a sprit lived in her bracelets. But she talked to Kimberla in her head and she came out at times. Maybe I am going crazy she thought.
Crazy about what She had forgot Kimberla could hear her thoughts Nevermind. Tears still falling down her face.
"How can I? I need proof and I am more suspicious of you since you have a spirit running around with you. Kimberlea you died, I was there at the funeral and so was grandpa. Sure they had no body for you or mom or dad but you were to be presumed dead, this is all just too confusing." Yugi was right, they did have a service for his family and if this girl was who she said she was then why didn't she come to him earlier? To make matters worse he had just gotten into a fight with Yami, which rarely happens, and she causes it all. Yugi wasn't sure if he should be more angry than upset.
Kimberlea looked wide eye. "You have do believe me Yugi" Tears fell down her face rapidly now. He has to believe her he just had too. "Wait Grandpa, I need to see Grandpa, Yugi where is Grandpa" She seemed forward now. Her mind set. Grandpa will know it's me he has to she thought. "Yugi please, All these years everything needs to be set right." Tears continued to fall. She had to get him to believe her. "That awful night of the fire I ran and ran far away, Yugi" she started rambling on about that awful night. Like she'd had been in the fire and up to she pushed Yugi out. "Please Yugi let me see Grandpa" Her eyes glowed as if she were truly honest and this is what she wanted.
While he listened to Kimeberlea's story Yugi began to tear up. Everything she said was possible and likely, she was the real deal. He slowly advanced to her so he could give her a hug before he spoke. "He is sleeping, I can't let you see him, and he would probably have a heart attack." Yugi said as he brushed away the tears. Beside Yugi, with his arms crossed, was the ghost-like figure of Yami, he had been listening this whole time, but only Yugi could see him.
Yes this is it he believes me. This is it Kimberlea thoughts ran. She squeezed her brother the way she did when they were little. Her tears will still falling but her unhappy look turned into a huge smile. "Can I come in?" she asked Yugi. She hoped he'd say yes. She could sleep out into the cold. She didn't have very much money left and she didn't know where the closest hotel or motel was. She looked wide eye at her brother.
"I guess
so, but I don't have a spare room for so you will have to sleep on
the couch."Yugi said as he
broke away from the embrace. He gestured for her to follow him inside
and once the two were in her locked the doors and brought her into
the main part of the house. From there he took her into the living
room, which was upstairs. It was a small room with one big cough and
one love seat with a coffee table and TV.
"I'll
be back, stay here and don't make a sound." Yugi
whispered and then he headed into his bedroom.
"Still not talking to me?" Yami said, his spirit floating beside him.
"Do you have an apology for me?" Yugi said curtly as he went over to his bed to grab a blanket for Kimberlea.
"Yes,
I'm sorry, I assumed and I was wrong." Yami said
with a hint of shame in his deep voice.
"Okay,
I forgive you."Yugi smiled and
went back into the living room.
"Here you go, I hope the couch is comfortable enough."He said as he handed Kimberlea the blanket.
"Thank you" Kimberlea said quietly. She looked
into his big eyes "Whats wrong with Atemu?" she asked out
of the blue. Just leave it Kimberlea will get it in the morning
Kimberla told Kimberlea. No wait let me find out why he says
he doesn't know what I'm talking about. Maybe it was a cover up
Fine...
Atemu? Not this again...Yugi tell her you have no idea what she is talking about, I don't even know what she is talking about! Yugi nodded at Yami's comment since it was true, they had no idea who this "Atemu" person or thing was. "Look Kimberlea, I don't know who or what you are talking about but I think I am going to leave you in peace and go to sleep, I'm tired and I don't want to deal with any of this anymore. Good night."Yugi said and went to his bedroom. He quietly shut the door behind him and plopped down on his bed.
"Yami, I am so confuesed." Yami floated beside Yugi, his eyes showed concern.
"Its okay, I undestand, please just try to go to sleep, we can speak later." Yugi knew exactly what Yami was meaning and nodded.
He shut his big eyes, trying to get this night's past
events out of his mind. Mean while Yami floated out of the bedroom
and into the livingroom. His eyes narrowed as he watched Kimberlea
settle down on the couch.
"Strange
girl..."
Kimberlea sat her self down on the couch. Kimberla floated beside her. "Something is wrong with the Pharaoh" Kimberla said.
"Maybe your wrong and it's not the Pharaoh, Maybe it is someone else" Kimberlea put her head on the pillow.
"Well we should deal with tomorrow, Kimberla"
"Ok fine good night Kimberlea" Kimberla knew she had to find out was going on with Atemu. Kimberlea closed her eyes and went to sleep.
