[Yami to Yugi (mind link]

{Yugi to Yami (mind link)}


The two walked through trees and bushes for what felt like hours. Neither talked, Yugi wasn't one who could strike up conversation easily and Atemu made no move too. Somewhere along the walk Atemu had taken to holding the shorter hand. He would have snatched his hand back if another pulse hadn't gone through him. There were secrets surrounding this Atemu character, secrets that somehow connected to Yugi, and he was dead set on finding out what. His common sense was screaming at the smaller teen to yank his hand away and run from this person but he couldn't. He felt a rope tie itself to his soul and the other end to Atemu's. He was afraid of this sudden connection but he knew it was the only way he would find his way out of this weird place. All he could do was hope that this ominous guy wasn't a murderer.

After about 20 more minutes of silent walking they came to another clearing, this one much larger. In the middle sat a picnic table with food of all kinds on it. Yugi's mouth watered at the delicious looking meal. Not that fruits weren't awesome, but nothing was like good-ol bacon. Yugi looked over at the smiling male next to him.

"Is this for m- uh, I mean us?" The shorter licked his lips at the thought of consuming all that food. His belly growled in delight at the meal to come.

"Whoa, people really don't change! That's just like Heba to say something like that." A deep, and slightly scary, voice rang out from behind them. Yugi whipped his head around to face the new comers. There were four in all, but they came looking like pairs of twins. Two boys had pure white hair, one had his straight while the other wore his prickly. Deep, doe brown eyes stared back, and both harbored gold necklaces that looked like rings. The two were oddly pale, and the one with spiky hair had a scowl on his face, while the other, who was slightly shorter, looked soft and friendly. Yugi didn't miss how they stood unusually close together.

Then there were two dark-skinned boys. Both had yellowish, goldish hair, one rocking it wild and pointy versus the other just wore it straight. They both held gold rods of some sort and looked wild, though one looked a bit nicer. Once again he didn't miss how close they stood. Atemu rolled his eyes.

"Don't call him that tomb keeper. He won't remember that name." Atemu snapped, but it was clear to everyone how little bite stood behind the words. The tan boy with the spiky hair grunted and gave the other a lazy look.

"Who shoved a stick up your ass, Pharaoh? " he responded with an annoyed tone. The look-alike hit him upside his head, hard. The smack really looked like it caused the other pain as he rubbed the back of his head.

"Marik!" He squealed "You're gonna freak Heb- uh rather, Yugi out. I don't want him running off cuz you're acting like an ass." He snarled, obviously upset with 'Marik'. The white-headed Albion with similar spiky hair chuckled at Marik.

"Your Hikari's got you on a tight leash, tomb keeper?" He joked, clearly taking great pleasure in the others rage.

"Shut it Bakura." Marik growled out, patience running low. 'Bakura' opened his mouth to reply when Atemu decided to step in. Yugi was already starting to get jumpy and seemed prepared to bolt if the need arised. If this argument continued for much longer the taller would lose all trust gained from the smaller.

"Would both of you shut up. Today isn't about you guys, today is about Yugi." He said sternly, giving said person a brief, light-hearted smile and a reassuring hand squeeze. The small gestured sent heat rushing to Yugi's face to his utter embarrassment. All the others either nodded or rolled their eyes, but didn't say a word.

"Come on, let's go eat and catch Yugi up." Atemu said, seeming to have very little interest on the former reason. Still, the weird group followed him to the large picnic table. Yugi was still wary of these new strangers. They scared him, but made no move to harm him. Even so, being surrounded by random people who obviously knew more than he was caution worthy. Then there was the weird name calling and the feeling of being left out of a large secret. What was with them calling him 'Heba'? Did he look like someone named Heba? Maybe that was why he didn't understand what they were talking about because he wasn't the person they thought he was. So just as everyone sat at the table, Yugi remained standing. Once the small band of people realized this, they looked at him expectingly. Gulping, Yugi cleared his trough and spoke softly.

"I don't think I'm who you think I am. My name is Yugi, not this Heba person. Maybe that's why I have no idea what you guys are talking about." He spoke unsurely and quietly, half hoping they just wouldn't hear him. No one said anything for a long time, though the five characters seated shared looks discretely. Finally the smaller of the two white heads stood up and responded.

"No, you are who we know you are. We've met many times before, why you can't remember is any ones guess. You may go by the name Yugi now, but, to us, you'll always be our Heba. We don't know you any differently. "


So is this story worth it? Should I continue? Warning this is gonna be a short story, only about 8 chapters. Maybe more, maybe less but i don't plan to make it very long. Original it was planned to be a one shot but...
