Hey, 4 reviews is not bad for a 1st chapter.
Yugi: Yami, tell me what the heck you did in the memory world when I wasn't there!
Yami: Yugi, there are somethings that must not be retold or described. Besides, at least I'm not a spiky haired, freak like you!
Yugi: Your momma!...Also yourself!...Plus me...
Yami: You would go there.
Scarlet: Both of you, spiky haired freaks
Let them have there moment, Scarlet! (watching argument, while eating popcorn)
Grandpa: Hey, Yugi! Without Yami, you wouldn't have been born. Hhahhaha.
Yugi & Yami: Shut up, old man!
Hey, listen to your elders!
Yami: Yeah, listen to us, Yugi!
Yugi: Yeah, listen to us, Mystery Agent!
I don't count! Anyway, someone do the disclaimer, remember whoever does get's less torture-(yami and yugi try to do dislaimer)
Yugi: Disclaimer:Mystery-(is electrified by hikari teasor)

Scarlet: Can I have-
Nope! Says here to keep away from Yami's on the instructions.
Yami: So this a Hikari teasor for Hikari's, to keep near hikari's, but away from, Yami's?
Yup!
Scarlet: Okay, this makes no sence so someone do the disclaimer.
Yami: Disclaimer: Mystery Agent does not own Yugioh. I still didn't know people would be stupid enough to think that on a site called Fanfiction.
Anyone else feel Dejavu?
Normal Pov~
"Yugi, why are you still up?" Yami asked in his spirit form, sitting on the edge of Yugi's bed. Yugi was currently sitting under the covers, with a book in his hand. Only using a lone lamp as his light souce, allowing him to read even thought the sky outside was a midnight blue.
"I'm reading." Yugi stated, his eyes never leaving the book.
"At eleven-thirty at night?" Yami questioned, suspiciously.
"There's no school tommarow. I can stay up late." Yugi answered, still not looking up from the open book in his hand.
"That's true. Except you usually go to sleep by at least eleven, even when you don't have school." Yami continued on with the questions. Yami's suspision seem to rise every second, for he knew something else was going on with his young friend.
"Yami, what are you trying to say?" Yugi asked. He was still refusing to meet eyes with Yami.
"Yugi, you're not intrested in that book at all." Yami said, knowingly.
"Yes, I am." Yugi attempted to prove his Yami wrong, only for Yami to continue.
"No your not, Yugi. You're just using it as an escuse for you not to got to sleep." Yami concluded, to Yugi who said nothing.
"You know I'm telling the truth." Yami said, while Yugi continued to stare at the book. Yugi seemed almost to sink his face deeper into the book, hiding away his eyes completely.
"I know its because of the nightmares. You don't have to hide it from me, I don't think you're a coward." Yami concluded, as if he had read Yugi's mind.
"Yes, you do. You're just trying to make me feel better..." Yugi said, mainly trying to covince himself.
"Yugi, look at me." Yami gently asked through their mindlink. He was attempting to approach the subject lightly, as to not damage Yugi's feelings. Yugi refused to listen, his head only bowed deeper away from sight. Yami wouldn't take a no and carefully tugged the book from Yugi's hands, who barely put up any sort of resistance.
"Look at me." Yami slowly lifted Yugi's head untill they met eyes.
"I would never lie to you on this type of subject. I honestly believe you to be one of the bravest people I know, never once have I ever thought to be a coward." Yami explained, gazing straight into Yugi's eyes. Yugi stared back, judging Yami's face to see the truth in his words.
"...I know you don't think I'm a coward, but I still feel like one." Yugi said sadly.
"Yugi, there is nothing wrong to be scared of what's happening to you. You don't really even know what exactly is happening to yourself, you have every right to be worried." Yami attempted to tell Yugi. Again, Yugi paused for a second before speaking.
"Are you scared?" Yugi voice was barely above a whisper, though Yami still heard. Yami didn't know how to answer at first, too stunned to give an answer.
"Yugi..." Yami's thought trailed off.
"I thought so." Yugi understood without the rest needed to be spoken.
"What are we going to do?" Yugi aked Yami, searching for the comfort that was lost.
"The best we can do is wait for something to happen." Yami found his voice, but the words were not as comforting to Yugi as he hoped.
"So all we're going to do is what untill something terrible happens to me!" Yugi wanted answers he knew he couldn't have.
"Yugi, for now, it's the best plan we have." Yami calmed Yugi, wishing there was a better plan. A plan that didn't exist.
"What should I do?" Yugi's voice came out small, making him regret not using their mindlink. He didn't want Yami to worry more about him than he already did.
"Yugi, you should go to sleep." Yugi was about to protest, but Yami continued on.
"There is no way of avoiding it. You can't stay awake forever, eventually you will have to go to sleep. Eventually, something is going to strike and when that happens just know I will be there. I promise not to let anything happen to you. I'll always be there to protect you." Yami finished his speech by giving Yugi a quick, yet caring hug. Yugi was unfamiliar with Yami showing this type of affection, but he figured Yami was just trying to assure him. (THIS IS NOT YAIO!)
"I guess it is the best plan." Yugi said hesitantly, still nervous. Yami nodded his head in agreement, as Yugi turned the lamp off. Yugi layed back, before tugging the covers over himself as Yami finnaly dispersed into the millenium puzzle.
"Goodnight, Yugi..." Yami's voice drifted through Yugi's head.
"'Night, Yami." Yugi called back while Yami's presence left his mind. Yugi though, layed motionless in his bed, still awake.
I hope our plan works... Yugi thought to himself, drifting into unconcious. Oblivious to the danger that waited for him there.~
Yugi's Pov~
The whisps of fog continued to thinken, causing evertything around me seem to be a world of gray and white.
"Is anyone out there?" I hesitated to ask, guessing the answer. The fog seemed to curl around me, as I trudged on blindlessly.
Why is it so cold? I wondered as a chill passed through me, forcing me to let out a shudder. The surrounding area seemed to have no end or beginning. I wasn't even completely sure what I was walking on, but I could tell there had to be something since I was standing.
"Please, if anyone is out there, answer me!" It was desperate cry for help, yet I couldn't help begging. I needed someone, anybody, to give some sort of comfort. I stared across wherever I was, hoping for a sign of life.
"Anyone?" I questioned to what seemed only the air. I thought it was when I senced I was being watched. I quickly spun around to observe a man wearing a dark, hooded cloak.
"Who-" I never got the chance to finish before the man had shoved a strange liquid down my throat. The world began to spin as I made a slight coughing noise since I had been speaking when the drink had suddenly been rushed down my throat, unexpectedly. Soon I saw the ground almost making contact with me and it would have made contact if I wasn't being held in the arms of the cloaked man. For some reason the fact that he was holding me didn't make me feel any better.
"Let's go." The man said while he carried to a bench that almost seemed familiar to me, but I couldn't place where. Nothing seemed to make much sence to me at this point since I still couldn't remember how I got here, or where here was. I came out of these thoughts when I noticed the man was already sitting on th park bench and was setting me down next to him. I was in a position where I was leaning on the man for support, but still sitting up.
"I'm sorry I have to do this to you everytime, though it is the only way I can talk to you, son." The man's voice was one that I caused me to want to believe him, except the fact that I couldn't move or speak let me choose not to even consider it true.
Wait, what did he mean by everytime? I asked the man in my mind, wishing he could answer.
"I know you're still confused about everything, yet I still tell you to just wait a little while longer. It won't be that long since I'm almost prepared to let you stay." This man seemed gleefull about what he said, yet I still didn't understand. The more he spoke the less I understood.
What does he mean by stay? Why does he keep calling me his son? These questions along with the thought of how I could move again were the the only thing I heard. They drowned out whatever the man was still saying, untill he broke me away from those thoughts by turning my face towards himself.
"I know our talk here is limited right now, but the next time you come it won't be! You can stay here and I'll be able to tell you everything. Time won't matter because we'll have an enternity together and we'll be united again!" The man shouted with pure excitment. Unlike him though, I only felt my blood run cold. The words the man spoke seemed to send fear on high levels I didn't know existed, through me. Of my whole time here, now was the exact moment I wanted to be able to move or speak. At the same time it was probally a great thing I couldn't because if I could I knew I would be screaming loud enough to cause an avalanche. Quickly, I realized that though I was paralyzied my breathing had become ragged breaths. To me it was like no oxegyn was reaching me.
What is happening? I didn't understand why this was happening, but now the world began to darken at the corners of my sight. The man, by now, had saw my condition yet only simply frowned at me as the darkness continued closing in around me.
"I'll see you soon, son. Though next time, there will be no goodbyes." The man's words filled my ears untill the world went completely black.~
Yami's Pov~
"AHHHHHHHH!" Yugi's scream was defeaning to me through the mindlink, which was why I was glad that I had been able to sucessfully stop him from screaming outloud at the cost of my own hearing.
"Yugi, wake up! You're dreaming, it's not real!" I was unable to tell how loud I was since Yugi's screaming was still bursting through our link. Yugi still wouldn't open his eyes as he continued to fight against something I could not see in his bed. The only thing keeping him from breaking everything were the shadow straps I had put on him to pin him to his bed since I wasn't able to hold him down myself.
Why is it take so long for him to wake up! I had been trying to wake Yugi up for the last ten minutes, but he still hadn't even opened his eyes. It usually only took about five minutes or less to wake Yugi up, except this time it appeared different.
Earlier I had been waiting for the dark presence to come again and it did, except I didn't prepare for the ear percing scream that came with it. I had came out of the puzzle to find Yugi in the worst condition any of these nightmares had put him through. Yugi was soaked in a cold sweat and was thrashing everywhere, so much I could see he would have alot of bruises by tommarow. He sounded like he was trying to scream something at some invisible person. I had attempted to stop his rampage, but I was only able to transfer his screaming to only being in his mind, yet when I tried to pin him down he just struggled more. Next I just attempted to get him concious, which was how I got here now.
"Yugi, listen! You're dreaming just wake up, please..." I couldn't stand watching Yugi this way anymore and would have gave up if I hadn't heard his call.
"Yami..." Yugi's voice was partly a whimper as his movements finnaly began to relax. I couldn't know if he was talking to me or just calling to me in his dream; I only knew that either way he was waking up.
"I'm right here, Yugi." I spoke softly when Yugi's eyes flashed open, wide with pure fear.
"Y-Y-Yami..." Yugi stuttered harshly as his body quaked in terror.
"Yugi, don't worry, you're awake. Everything is fine." I attepmted to calm Yugi down, but it didn't work. Yugi quickly scanned his room, the fear in his eyes never leaving.
"Is something wrong, Yugi?" I reached out my hand to him, but shockingly to both me plus Yugi, he jumped away from it. I stared in shock, something had to be wrong.
"Yami, I didn't- I don't-" Yugi kept rambling trying to speak, yet his sentences just continued to start then stop repeatedly.
"What happened in that dream-" I began only for Yugi to grab his head in agnoy, letting me know there was no use of concluding what I was saying. I helped Yugi balance himself while the sensation of his memory being erased passed by.
"Are you okay?" I asked, getting the answer of "no" by looking at Yugi. Yugi's eyes still held the raw terror he had when he had woken up plus his body was shaking worse than before.
"Something is going to happen." Yugi said in a low voice.
"What? Does that mean you remember you're-"
"I don't remember what happens in these dreams, but I know somethings going to happen. Each time I have this feeling I'm being warned in them. That something or somone is warning me about something terrible approaching. I may not know what it is, though I know that it will occur. It will happen. This time I have no memory of what happened, except even without the memory of the dream I can't stop this sensation that I didn't just get a warning this time, but a threat. That I wasn't just warned that it was coming, I was told that it is here and it is ready to strike..." Yugi's explained in a tone that was one of certainity, that left even me unable to speak.
"Maybe you're wrong." I said, not even believing my own words. I only wanted them to be true, though just a glance at Yugi and I knew he wasn't wrong. I stood ther silently submerged in the new truth that had been told.
"What do we do?" Yugi called out to me, shaking me from my thoughts.
"I-I..." I had no answer. Our plan of waiting for something to happen wouldn't work. It was too risky, yet it was the only option I could think of. Yugi turned towards me and immediately knew my answer.
"No, Yami." Yugi's held the sound of fear that I had never heard from him before.
"I know it might still-" I couldn't continue when I saw Yugi. Yugi was curled in a defensive position, with his head buried inbetween his legs, while his arms curled around his legs. The scene could only be described as heart breaking as I felt the terror that surrounded Yugi, plus heard the muffled sobs that he tried to hide.
I can't make him... My thoughts trailed off. I had to. There was no other plan.
"Yugi, can't you just try-"
"Stop." Yugi's sobs could be heard through the mindlink. I wanted to speak, but in a sudden flash he was out of the room.
"It's morning. Let's talk later." Yugi rushed out, never giving me a chance to argue. I turned towards the clock and read six-fifteen. It was morning, though I knew it was only an escuse to avoid the conversation. I let out a sigh as I desecened down the stairs to where Yugi had ran too.
I guess Yugi will get over this by nighttime. I hoped to myself. I guessed wrong.~
Two days later~
"Yugi, go to bed. You know you have school in the morning." I pleaded with Yugi again. I was completely wrong when I thought Yugi would have gotten over that one dream. Of all things it was like Yugi thought of the dream even more. Yugi hadn't gone to bed for the past two days and I was barely able to believe he was able to still stand. Yugi's eyes seemed to always be half closed, he had dark circles around his eyes and he always dragged his feet when he walked. Yugi's movement had slowed down to nearly none at all. It hurt me just having to see Yugi this way.
"No..." Yugi's answer was short, without energy. It was the same answer every night. I was never able to convince him to go to sleep. Now that school was this morning, I was beginning to worry.
"Do you really want your friends to see you this way?" I demanded, hoping my persuasion would be sucessful. Yugi held no reaction on the outside, probally from being to exhausted, but through our link I could sence his inward flinch at the mention of his friends.
"So." Yugi barely wasted a breath for his answer as he began walking away.
"Yugi, its three in the morning! You can't keep this up!" I was inbetween asking plus ordering Yugi to get some rest.
"You can't make me." Yugi actually said a full sentence, which momentairly knocked the air out of him.
"Yugi, stop! You know that no matter how long you stay up eventually you will have to get some rest." I had gotten inbetween Yugi in the doorway, haulting him from leaving this conversation.
"Get out of my way..." Again, Yugi took a pause to lean against the wall since he said more than just one word.
"Look at yourself! You'll probally drop any minute!" I was starting to allow the volume of my voice raise, as if that would get Yugi to listen. Though Yugi did consider my words, for he examined himself for a moment, eventually he decided not to hear me out. Yugi continued on his journey downstairs, but I turned into my soild form before he could.
"Yugi, you won't last untill school starts if you stay this way! You know your friends will notice your lack of sleep and they'll tell you to go to sleep too. Either way we're all going to be telling you the same thing so you might as well do it right now." This time, I knew my words were getting to Yugi as I felt doubt enter into his mind about his plan.
"I can't, Yami. I really can't..." Yugi tried to explain, but his words drifted away. Yugi sat down on the bed, his eyes fixed to the ground.
"Yugi, don't you trust me?" My voice was low, maybe because some part of me wanted Yugi to hear me and the other part wanted him to ignore me completely. Though Yugi had jerked his head up at the question, I simply took my turn to stare away.
"What? I never-"
"I promised you I wouldn't let anything happen to you, yet you refuse to go to sleep. You don't go to sleep because you're afraid of what will happen, even after I promised you. If you trusted me, you would believe me when I said I would protect you. Yugi, what do you think this is supposed to tell me?" My words rang out in the silence that gave no answer. My face by now had strayed towards the window, so I was unable to see Yugi's face that was probally was one of disbelief.
"Yami, I do trust you, but I just can't...I-I'm..." Yugi didn't conclude his jumbled sentence. There was no need, the damage had been done.
"Just go to bed." I said, one last time as I gazed across the midnight sky. Yugi did nothing for a while, before turning off the lamp and sliding under the covers. I spared a glance to Yugi as I entered my soul room. Yugi's eyes were shut, yet I knew he wasn't asleep since I could feel his conciousness through our mindlink. This was just Yugi's way of avoiding conversation if everthing else failed, like he had been doing for the past few days. I didn't care; it didn't matter. There was no way I could force Yugi to get rest, I was only glad that at least he would shut his eyes for a moment. I let out a wary sigh, while I entered to the place that represented my mind.
Maybe if I could tell Yugi's friends about his condition they could help... This was the plan I thought of as I stayed in my dark chambers. It really wasn't a plan though, it was just something that was close enough to hope.~
Yeaaaaahhhh! I finished this in like one week!
Yami: Hey, Yugi. I never thought I would say this but..."Whose your daddy?"
Yugi: Oh, just shut it! Momma's boy!
Yami: I'm not a momma's boy!
Yugi: How do you know, they never even showed your mom, not once!
Yami: Well, at least my daddy's not the evil guy in this story thats got me scared of going to sleep!
Yugi: HE'S NOT MY DAD!
Yami: How do you know. Your dad's never been seen either!
Yugi: 1.I know my dad! Even though he's never been around to see me save the world or switch to you and half kill someone, but I know how he looks like somewhat! 2...Shut Up!
Yami: Nice ending, it "very" believable!
Yugi: Don't start with me.
Scarlet: Man, this is better than the arguing family next door!
I know, right? O f cource my arguing next door neighbors even beat the arguing people on T.V. Nothing beats hearing them every day, including at night when I should be studing for a test and they keep me up...all night...(eye twitches)
Scarlet: Ok...
Yugi: Mystery Agent, just tell them if this guy is my dad!
Sure thing! The guy in this story is- Oh look, I only have 5 minutes to update this before the library closes. Sorry.
Yugi: Tell them he's not-
*Mystery Agent Out*
