Shadows of Kyla and Yami
"Yami…!" A feminine voice called, making them all blink, and stare at Atemu when he was the one who turned around, as if he was the one addressed.
"Kyla…!" Atemu voiced in surprise. "What are you doing here…?" He questioned the female who ran up to him; she shockingly looked like a rather live version of the Dark Magician Girl, she seemingly pounced up on him to hug him, wrapping her legs around his middle and her arms around his neck tightly making choke, as he staggered backwards and tried not to fall down by her admittance. "Ark…! Kyla…! Get off…!"
"Yami….! You disappeared….!" The girl seemingly pouted, not caring that her actions were choking Atemu, nor the confusion of the others of her actions.
"Very nice….Kyla….I need…air...!" Atemu noted, pulling the girl away from him and gasping for air.
"Sorry, Yami…" Kyla pouted as he coughed, and rubbed his neck.
"Could you not kill me next time you try and hug me…? Why are you here….?" Atemu blinked then pointed out, "And I did not disappear; I got on a plane; THEN disappeared…."
"I'll try to remember that…! I'm here because I came to find you….And that means you still disappeared…"
Atemu seemingly blanched over her. "Don't you dare tell me you left by Shadow magic…!"
Kyla seemingly nervously laughed, and searched for a way out, and blinked at Yuugi. "Yami…! You have a double-ganger…!" Kyla pointed to a very confused Yuugi who blinked when Atemu slightly whacked her over the head.
"Stop saying weird things, Kyla, I am going to murder you in a minute; meet people before you die." Atemu introduced, making more than two people laugh nervously while Kyla yelped.
"I didn't do anything wrong, Yami….!" She pouted.
"Using Shadow magic is nothing wrong now…?" He asked turning back to her.
"…Depending on the usage…?" Kyla asked edging away from him, as he growled. "Okay…! I'm sorry…!"
"Better, don't use the Shadow's for meaningless things. You could have taken a plane." Atemu grumbled.
"But Yami….!" Kyla pouted at him.
"No buts, no one wants to see you end up like Teana." Atemu noted, and the girl visibly flinched.
"…You have a good point…" Kyla said with a blink.
"I have past knowledge of me doing that several times before…." Atemu told thoughtfully.
"Yami…!" Kyla growled, and Atemu shrugged.
"Yo, what is going on…?" Jounouchi asked.
"Ah. Kyla's from Egypt." Atemu stated, as the girl in question high-fived the air, and making Atemu want to hit him-self.
"…Why is she calling you Yami…?" Yuugi asked cautiously.
Atemu was going to state why when said girl bounded behind him and wrapped her arms around his neck, forbidding him from saying much, but growl at her.
"Kyla…!" He growled, only making her giggle as he nearly faltered in getting a purchase on the ground.
"I call him by his middle name…!" Kyla announced, making Atemu choke more, before he growled and flipped her over, with a yelp she landed on the ground.
"Do you always going to have the need to try and choke me, Kyla….?" Atemu asked of her, and she grinned and nodded, only serving to make him sigh, and pinch his nose. "You are truly going to be the death of me." He muttered, and she giggled, and then looked up to Yuugi.
"It made sense for people back home to call him that, because he was always interested in Japan…!" She told, quiet happy on the floor.
The rest blinked back to Atemu. "Your middle name is Yami…?"
Atemu nodded, and looked back to Kyla. "Are you going to get off the floor, or am I going to need to sit on you…?" To this Kyla made a yelping noise, and got up quick. "Now, think, Kyla, how are you going to get home…?"
Kyla blinked, and Atemu sighed.
"Your parents don't know you're here, do they? They're probably raiding the sand dunes looking for you…."
Kyla pouted. "It's not like I can go back and tell them then come back here."
Atemu shrugged. "Why not…?"
Kyla blinked. "Well, because…" With a hand movement from Atemu, a warped black cloud behind Kyla opened up, making them all look. "Well there's that—" Kyla started but before she could finish Atemu pushed her into it.
"And get a plane back…!" Atemu shouted after her, and then the dark cloud disappeared.
Atemu sighed, not noticing the others had back away slightly. "She'll be back by the end of the week." He seemingly then whimpered at a passing thought. "I don't want to die…" Atemu said in reference to Kyla while rubbing his neck.
Yuugi blinked. "Where…did…you…just…send her….?" He asked through shock.
"I sent her back home…She'll be fine."
Jounouchi made a laugh-chuckling noise, and slung an arm over Atemu, seemingly forgetting the trick he had done with the Shadow's. "So what is she to you…?"
"A pain in the neck that I have known for too long…" Atemu stated calmly, making Jounouchi blink.
"I thought she might have been your girlfriend or something…" He stated.
"Gah…! Perhaps when the Shadow's take over, but, until such a time, I shall kill myself if that occurs, now please get of me." Atemu stated blankly.
"Yes, sir…!" Jounouchi saluted and quickly got off Atemu.
"I want to go home." Atemu sighed quietly to himself while pouting.
Atemu looked down the road that would send him homewards and looked towards the group that had somehow followed him, or was he the one following them?
"This is my road…" Atemu stated to them, and they looked to him.
"'Kay, see you tomorrow." More than one announced to him. Atemu made a head gesture of farewell, and then turned around to walk down the road fixing his bag on the lone shoulder while leaving.
Yuugi blinked as he watched him leave.
"Why do I get the feeling that if I was to turn away, he wouldn't be there anymore…?" Jounouchi questioned them all as well as himself, making Yuugi look to him.
"Maybe because he's not meant to be here…?" Yuugi pondered aloud.
Anzu blinked. "What makes you say that…?"
With one more glance down the road, Yuugi shrugged and forced himself to turn homeward. "Just something he said…"
"Eh…?" Jounouchi sounded as the rest caught up to Yuugi. "What did he say…?"
"…He has memories locked away, that he didn't make on his own…I'm pretty sure that was what he meant…" Yuugi pondered aloud, and very much to himself.
Confusion flew about in the air. "What do you mean…?"
Yuugi shook his head. "He wasn't sure himself, but I think it unconsciously flows through him."
The rest groaned. "Meaning what, Yuge…?" Jounouchi asked.
"He's not aware of it. His parents didn't want him to come to Japan; but he came anyway. So being in Japan is a trigger…."
"So how do you know he's not aware of it…?" Anzu asked curiously.
"Well…He called me Little One…and didn't seem to notice he said it…"
"Oh, you've gotta be kidding me."
.
.
"…You're not going to put the wall on fire, are you, Atemu-kun…?"
Atemu blinked and looked down to see Yuugi.
"Aa…?" He voiced looking from Yuugi to the wall. "Hardly…"
Yuugi smiled. "That's good." But he blinked, when Atemu returned to staring at the wall, as the rest of the group came up. "Did something happen…?" Yuugi asked, making Atemu look away from the wall again.
"I'm looking for a way to send my father to the Shadow Realm without being accounted for it…" Atemu stated lightly, making the rest blink stunned at him, making him blink at them. "…I was joking…" He blinked again when they all looked like they sighed in relief.
"…What did your father do this time…?" Yuugi asked with his head siding to one side.
"He tried to overpopulate the Nile with Shadow creatures…"
"He did WHAT?" The whole group yelled while Atemu tried to hush them.
"He didn't succeed." Atemu stated once they had calmed down.
They all blinked. "Why not…?" Yuugi asked curiously making Atemu chuckle.
"Some things can't be done when there are other people watching." Atemu started watching them all blink. "And trying to overpopulate the Nile with Shadow creatures would be one of them."
"That would make sense…" Anzu said, and Atemu shrugged as the bell went.
School had ended way too soon for anyone's liking, much to their horror, and they were back to walking down the same road.
"YAMI~!" A voice called loudly, and everyone turned to Atemu, whose eyes had gone wide and he had stopped dead.
"Oh Gods—" He commented in shock, before the arms cut him off from anything else and he was now trying to breathe for his life.
"Guess who!" Kyla announced to the now gagging Atemu she was still holding onto, while the rest were staring, unsure what to do.
"Gwt…uf…!" Atemu growled towards her, and she quickly let go.
"Yes, O Pharaoh…." Kyla was quick to announce to Atemu as he rubbed his neck and growled at her, while the rest blinked confusedly.
"I don't care what kind of past life you seemed to think I have had, I am no Pharaoh. If I was it would give me permission to kill you for trying to kill me so many times, Kyla Mana of Old." Atemu told her straight, she flinched at her full name while the rest stared on in amazement, but she was quick to look to the others, but Atemu was quicker. "And neither does he leave the Little One out of your ideals." Atemu growled at her, and she pouted.
"Why did you use my full name…It's so unfair, I can't use yours." Kyla pouted to him.
"Because you know I will kill you if you do." Atemu said pleasantly. "You did get a plane here, right…?" To this Kyla nodded. "And pray to Ra you have a place to stay…" To this Kyla blinked and Atemu groaned. "Why am I always housing you—Hang on, it hasn't even been three days how did you get here so quick?"
Kyla winked and high-fived the air; "My little secret…!"
But Atemu was quick. "You used the Monsters didn't you?" Kyla hid her head, while Atemu sighed. "Magician Girl…?"
Kyla huffed. "I wish, she will only answer to you."
"You used the newborns didn't you."
"….They wanted to help…"
"Oh, I swear to Ra I'm going to go insane one day because of you." Atemu muttered to himself. Kyla pouted at him, and he looked to her, and grasped both of her shoulders to address her. "I do not care how much they wish to help out, you cannot stand the magnitude of them helping you, and I do not wish the Shadow's to consume you…." He told her. "Why do I feel like I've had this sort of conversation before…?" He asked the last part mostly to himself.
"I know…" Kyla answered in a sigh. "…But you can do it…?" She looked to him hopefully.
"No one knows why I can, and even so, I do not wish to be consumed by the Shadow's…If you remember correctly; everything to do with the Shadows was locked away."
Kyla pouted again.
Atemu released his hold on Kyla who blinked to see Yuugi.
"Yuugi-san…!" She announced making everyone blink.
"How did you know his…?" Atemu asked with a blink, but cut himself off as he realised something. Her hand dived into her backpack that everyone just realized she had, she then proceeded to take something out and show it to Yuugi.
"Dark Magician asked me to give you this." Kyla announced showing Yuugi the Duel Monsters card she had, and heard the little awed cry he gave out as he saw Kyla had given him the said card who had asked of her, Kyla placed it in his hands with a smile, but looked up to Atemu who groaned.
"Do I even want to know…?" He asked them, but then blinked as Kyla waved the card in his face.
"Duel Monsters, you used to play it, remember, Atemu…?" Kyla said while waving the card almost hypnotically.
"Yeah, until the cards starting speaking to me…" Atemu told her, and she sighed as she gave Yuugi the card back. "And why that one…?" Atemu asked her, referring to the card.
Kyla blinked. "I don't know, Dark Magician didn't tell me why he needed a card he already has." She pouted, while missing Yuugi's astonished blink.
Atemu sighed. "Of course, how typical of him…"
Kyla started poking him in the shoulder blade. "You should take up the game again, Atemu."
Atemu gave her a look to make her stop poking him. "Maybe I would if you would stop poking me, and if I had my deck; but neither are going to happen, because I know you're itching to annoy me, and my deck is back in Egypt, in my room, under my bed."
Kyla blinked. "Why under your bed…?"
"So Father wouldn't find them…"
"…He did set the shadows on the Nile—ah…Imagine what he could do with your deck…!"
Atemu blinked, realizing his fault. "Perhaps I shouldn't have left them at home…"
Kyla smiled, and pulled out a card holster and gave it to him, only for him to hit her head with it several times as he spoke. "I am going to murder you."
But she smiled, knowing his bluff well by now.
"Nee…Atemu-kun…?" Yuugi asked, while the others were still reeling. Atemu looked to him. "You like to play games…?" His one nod was an answer. "Nee…! You're not doing anything for the rest of the day, are you…?" Atemu blinked several times, but shook his head only to now have his hand grasped and be pulled along by Yuugi, leaving the rest to blink, and running to catch up.
"Hey…! Wait up…!"
Atemu hadn't given hint of resistance to being pulled by Yuugi, so Yuugi pulled him into his home.
"Ohayo, Jii-san…!" Yuugi announced while pushing the door open, and dragging Atemu into the shop.
"Oha—I'm seeing double." He stated blinking at the two.
"Jii-san this is Aknam Atemu, he's new from Egypt…!"
Sugoroku blinked. "Named after two Pharaoh's…?"
Atemu blinked. "Two…?" He looked to Yuugi who was giving his grandfather a death glare in order to shut him up, but he soon forgot as he was dragged down to his right as Kyla found him.
"And this is Mana Kyla…" Yuugi stated, as Atemu gasped while Kyla giggled.
"I'm afraid we'll need him alive, Kyla my dear." Sugoroku announced to Kyla who blinked, and let go, having now realized she was in the presence of an elder. "Ah…! You all came…!" He announced seeing the other trudge in through the door.
"'Sup, Jii-san…!" Jounouchi announced with his arrival.
