Hello everyone. Before I start the story I'd like you to know that this is my first story in a while. I got the idea for this story while reading two other stories where Yuugi had gone almost/completely corrupted by shadows so I decided that would be a nice plot to work with. Don't worry it won't be the same as either of them... Keep in mind that I will not be using the English versions of everyone's names. The characters are not mine.
The Light In The Shadows
Chapter 1: Demon in Human Form
Yuugi woke up screaming, his eyes full of terror. He was shaking in fear, yet for some reason he couldn't remember why. Yes, Yuugi knew he had just had a nightmare but yet he couldn't remember what it was about, the details of any of it. Yuugi sighed with a shaky breath and practically stumbled into his bathroom, a strange feeling surrounding his body, almost like something was pulling on him. Yuugi shivered and went to the bathroom. He began to splash water on his face, trying to calm himself down. He reached for a towel and dried off his face. When he was done he stopped to look at himself in the mirror, his eyes widening in a mixture of shock and terror. He began to slowly back away, closing his eyes, he was so afraid. 'This must be a dream' he thought to himself. The strange feeling was worse then before. He felt the world begin to spin like a top. He let out a huge scream before falling into a pit of darkness, his body not moving from the corner he was in.
Yuugi P.O.V.
Shadows…shadows and pain…that's all I feel…that's all I ever feel…Since Yami left me and my 'friends' after the ceremonial duel. I always though I was the light to Yami's darkness. I thought I was his hikari, his aibou. Of course I was wrong. The shadows told me so. They were Yami's only gift to me. I used to be afraid of the shadows but I'm not anymore. They help me…they make me feel better…they would feed me their power. They had helped me leave and now someone was making me come back. I would make them pay.
As I was pulled back to earth I felt someone shaking me. Wait, scratch that, I felt multiple people shaking me. Most were doctors, except one. My 'grandfather' the shadows told me. I heard him scream my name.
"Yuugi! Yuugi!" he screamed. How dare he take me from the shadows? I would punish him for awakening me. I would actually make him useful. I had no use for him how he was. I knew I had left my body on Earth and had been said to be 'In a coma.' That was probably why he was so worried. I felt bad and wanted to hug him, to say I was okay. Wait…these weren't my feelings.
I moaned a bit so he'd notice I was waking and was glad he stopped. I smiled a bit as I opened my eyes and laughed as he gasped and backed away. I was glad all the other doctors were gone but I knew I had to do this quickly. I smiled wider, "What's the matter Grandfather?" I laughed again, "Don't you think the shadows suit me?" Every time I spoke, shadows came out of my mouth, making this much more fun. I saw a reflection of myself in a small mirror and giggled. My once amethyst eyes were now as dark as blood on velvet. When I had gone with the shadows three months ago, My innocence was taken away from me. You could see it in my eyes that I was no longer innocent.
I snapped my gaze back to the pitiful man I had to call my grandfather, who tried to leave the room. An inhuman growl escaped my lips. I snapped my fingers and shadows held my grandfather in place, "Where do you think you're going?" I snarled at him, watching as his eyes widened in fear. I continued before he could speak, "You're not leaving here, at least not like that." I smiled, showing sharpened teeth, as the shadows began to surround his grandfather, soon leaving a lifeless body on the ground and a new shadow above it. "Bring his body back home." I ordered the shadows. They disappeared with the body and I slowly got up. I noticed I was in a hospital gown and groaned. I snapped my fingers and shadows dressed my in my typical clothing. I walked out of the room.
A few minutes later I was back in my bed relaxing. The shadows told me I had a rough day. I listened to them, as always and closed my eyes, "Do with his body what you wish." I whispered before falling into a deep sleep filled with nightmares, something I now enjoy.
Stranger's P.O.V.
I slowly picked the door lock to the Kame game shop and went upstairs to the home part of the game shop. As soon as I picked the door lock to the house and went inside. Instantly I began to gag. Something wasn't right. The smell I knew immediately. A bloodied corpse. Why was that smell here. What had happened? The excitement I had felt earlier today when I had gotten good news had left me. Like someone had drained all the happiness away from me. They had let me come back. I knew there was a catch yet I didn't know what. That would be answered soon. I suddenly saw something from the corner of my eye. "Shadows!' I thought my heart rate increasing. Why were shadows here? They were supposed to be locked up in the shadow realm…unless…oh no…I didn't. Did I? I began to run towards where the smell was coming from. I remembered the dream I had recently. A tiny little light stuck in a world of shadows. I feared for the worst what it meant. I reached the room and flung opened the door, gasping at what I saw. Sugoroku lay there dead, shadows ripping him apart. The shadows kept whispering about there new master. There new king. It worried me so much. Had Yuugi…truly become there new master…I hoped I was mistaken. I hoped with all my heart that my precious Aibou hadn't become a demon in human form. If he was…I would have to save him from it like in the old days. A children's trading card game wouldn't solve my problems any more. I turned from the room and closed the door, feeling tears run down my face. I ran up the steps and opened the door to my Aibou's room and gasped at the pure horror I saw.
Sorry to leave you guys like that. Let me know what you think so far.
