Me: Hey Guys! So im back with the next chapter in the story! Sorry it took so long! I meant to have this out yesterday, but between studying, being kicked outside to get sun because im a vampire and like to seclude myself in my room all day until night, and working jobs to get my Super Sailor Moon costume I've been pretty busy.

Lightning: You're such a nerd, why are you studying in the middle of summer?

Me: Because unlike you I like to stay several grades ahead of myself so that I can have more time to write these stories during the school year. Besides it helps me write better if I study during summer.

Lightning: Whatever. Is anybody gonna die in this chapter?

Me: No. I don't believe in character death.

Lightning: Any more gore?

Me: nope just a nice mellow chapter.

Lightning: So now you decide to be all innocent an pure again. Call me when the fluff is over. (Stalks off).

Me: *sigh* Well ima go find Lightning. I don't own Yugioh or any characters mentioned.

Yami had managed to scare off all the thugs, but as he got closer to where the circle had just been, he could smell the metallic scent of all the blood and knew that he was too late to prevent serious damage to the victim. He kneeled down when he reached the badly beaten man on the ground. He shuddered inside when he saw what had been done to him. The poor boy couldn't have been more than 16 by his size. He wondered what the boy had done to cause the thugs to try to kill him. Hell, if Yami hadn't gotten there in time, they would have.

The boy stared at him, before his Amethyst eyes closed and his body went limp. Strangely Yami had felt like he had seen those eyes before. They looked like the eyes of his childhood friend, and love Yugi, whom he had not seen in almost 12 years since he had left the orphanage they had both lived in. But that couldn't be possible because when he had gone back to that orphanage almost 5 years ago he discovered Yugi had moved away with a new family.

Yami shook his head to clear his mind. This wasn't the time to be thinking about a long lost love. There was an unconscious boy in front of him who was severely injured and needed treatment. He pulled out his phone and dialed 911, praying the dispatcher wouldn't ask a lot of questions. "911 emergency services. What is your situation?" "Um I have a severely injured boy on the ground in front of me in. We're at Hope Park near the kiddy toys," he said. "Ok sir we're sending an ambulance your way right now. Is the boy still conscious?" Yami looked to see if the boy had woken up, but he was still unconscious, much to his dismay. "No". "Ok sir, I want you to stay beside him till the ambulance gets there. Can you do that"?

This dispatcher was talking to him like he was a little kid but he didn't care. All he cared about was the ambulance getting here soon and taking this boy to safety. "Yes" he said. He heard the wail of sirens in the distance and knew that the ambulance would be there soon. He realized the dispatcher was still on the phone and told her that the ambulance was almost at the park. The dispatcher said ok and told him that she was going to hang up and to just remain calm u till the ambulance got there. Yami said okay, and when he heard the click of the receiver he closed his phone and put it back into his pocket.

He gently lifted the injured boys head onto his lap and sat there stroking his hair until the ambulance arrived. He didn't know why but he felt a strange connection to this boy. That's why when the paramedics put him on a stretcher and loaded him into the back of the ambulance, Yami insisted that he ride with him, to keep an eye on him. As the ambulance sped down the road towards the hospital, Yami sat there thinking about why fate had decided to have Yami save this boy. Was it possible that he knew him? He tried to scan the boys face for any familiar signs, but it was to bruised and covered in blood to make out any distinguishing features.

He decided that he was just in the right place at the right time, to save this boys life. He hoped that he had done enough to help him. In the end he decided he had done all he could and the rest was up to fate and the doctors.

The ambulance arrived at the hospital about 4 minutes later. The paramedics unloaded him from the back, while Yami jumped out and raced after them as they rushed him to surgery to remove the bullet lodged in his side. He followed them all the way to the operation room where they told him to wait outside. Not wanting to get in trouble, he sat in a chair several meters down the hallway, praying that the doctors could save him.

Several hours later.

Yami heard a door open and looked up to see a doctor walking towards him. "Are you here with that boy" he asked pointing towards the room where the kid was now resting after the surgery. "Yes. Is he going to be okay?" he asked almost hysterically. For some reason just the thought of that boy not making it sent him to into hysterics. "Calm down. He'll be fine. We removed the bullet lodged in his side and by some miracle it missed all his vital organs. He has a major concussion, but no brain damage. All his bruising is external to. You should be glad you got there when you did though. If he had gone through much more, I don't know if we would have been able to save him," he said.

"Can I see him?" Yami asked. "You can but he's still asleep so you probably won't get to talk to him" he said. "Ok." Yami got up and walked towards the boys room with a sense of relief. He was going to be okay. This made Yami happy, knowing that he had managed to save the boy with beautiful Amethyst eyes. He entered the room and stared at the boy stared at the boy lying in the bed. In the light, wrapped up in bandages, he looked small and vulnerable.

He had black hair with red tips, and blonde bangs that fell in waves across his forehead. His skin was pale white, and weather that was from blood loss or it was just his natural color Yami couldn't tell. All in all he could pass of as Yami's twin, the only difference being Yami was taller and his hair had yellow lightning bolt streaks through it. But Yami wasn't thinking about that. He was thinking about how much this boy resembled Yugi. Sure the last time he saw Yugi, he was 9 and Yugi had been 7, but he was almost certain that this was him. The resemblance was uncanny.

He walked to the foot of the bed and picked up the medical chart attached there. He took a deep breath, before looking, knowing that the name written on it would decide his future. He almost dropped the chart when he saw what was written on the chart. Underneath the name box was written down Yugi Mutou.

Me: There you go. The second chapter. Told you he would find out fairly soon.

Lightning: A cliffhanger really? Why would you leave off on a cliffhanger?

Me: Because it leaves an air of mystery to the story, and makes the readers come back to read my story. (Evil laugh) And is that a note of interest I hear in your voice?

Lightning: NO! You need to get your ears checked. Why would I be interested in your story?

Me: Riiiight. Anyways, sorry bout this only being Yami's point of view, but I thought it would just suit the chapter. Next chapter will have Yugi's point of view I promise. Oh and there might be an appearance by Bakura *sigh*

Lightning: What the hell is it with you and that guy. He's not even that cool.

Me: But he's such a sexy Bad***.

Lightning: Phhht, You really need to rethink your interest in men. Bakuras such a loser.

Me: What did you just say? (Eyes fill with fire)

Lightning: Ummmmmm…. Nothing? (Whimpers and runs away)

Me: I'm going to go have a very…..animated talk with Lightning now. So till next time R&R.
