Crying. It's a sound human ears do not rarely want to hear. Though, ironically you can rarely not hear that noise coming from the Mutou home. Another sound is yelling of a slurred voice, a drunk is living in that house. Also another sound, after a woman wearing heavy make-up going inside the home, is moaning and other filthy sounds. Yes, this home would you rarely see a child, but in this house you have two. No one knew there were children living in that house no one seemed to care.

"Daddy please don't hit Yugi!" Yami, the drunken mans oldest son, cried as he saw his brother, Yugi being beaten by his own father. His father pulled Yugi off the floor with his orange T-shirt.

"Shut up!" His father screamed, dropping Yugi and going after Yami who was outside the bedroom where Yugi was being "punished".

"Yami run!" Yugi cried watching in horror as his father was now chasing his eldest son down the hall. Yami went into the first dimly lit room and ran for what seemed to be the closet. Finding he was correct he opened the closet without difficulty and closed it shut. He huddled into a corner of the closet, and then hugged his knees to his chest hoping his father wouldn't find him in the small cramped closet.

' Please God if someone dies tonight let it be me! Yugi is only five-I'm seven I lived a complete life, please I don't want Yugi hurt!' Yami prayed. Yami's eyes began to fill with tears as he thought of his brother being tortured and him in the nice, safe closet he was in. Suddenly he heard light footsteps coming from outside the closet, Yami hugged his knees tighter and waited until he heard a soft sound.

"Yami, its alright its me!" Yugi whispered from outside the closet. Yami smiled and sighed in relief. Yami slowly stood up from where he was sitting and opened the closet door. As soon as he saw Yugi and that he was some-what okay he embraced him tightly.

"Yugi I'm so glad your okay! Where's Dad?" Yami asked before coming out of the closet.

"He's passed out on floor!" Yugi giggled, always finding the humor in things. He was five it was his job. Yami smiled and kissed his brother on his forehead and slightly pushed Yugi out of the way so that he could get out of the closet.

"I'm happy now!" Yami said quietly so that he didn't wake his father from his sleep. Both Yami and Yugi stepped outside the room to his their father passed out in the hallway.

Yami tucked Yugi into bed (Or what seemed to be a bed) and said good night. Yami turned of the attic light and headed down the wooden fold-up stairs. Yami had gone down to the first floor of the house to clean the mess his father made in the haste to beat his own flesh and blood.

Next Day

Yami was lying down on the flimsy mattress they knew as a bed. The small towel that was lying over the two small boys was all the warmth they had and known this to be their blanket. Yami wrapped his small arm around his younger brother's slim waist to give his brother as much warmth as he could. Sun trickled through the small attic window, which in this case caused the sunlight to radiate around the room and hit Yami's face. Yami's eyes started to flutter open as he felt the warm sun hit his face. Soon afterwards Yugi started to wake up and flutter his eyes. Yami felt Yugi wake up suddenly and withdrew his hold on Yugi. Yugi sat up and yawned cutely, Yami smiled to see the young one wake so happy.

"Good mornin' sunshine how yah feelin'?" Yami asked.

"Fine! How 'bout you?" Yugi responded with his own question. It was the same ritual every morning. They would always say the same things and eventually Yugi would turn on the small TV in the attic and start watching recordings of Inuyasha his brother would record for him.

"Yugi, Yami come down here!" his father right on queue would yell from the second floor of the building. And both Yami and Yugi went to answer his father's call.
