Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! or the concept of Silent Hill 2. But I did just buy the Silent Hill 3 game! It rocks!

Authoress Notes: I'm just skipping around to the dialoge Because other than that not much happens in the appartments. If I did it the way I played the game he would be walking around for hours and the riddles aren't really as fun and cryptic as the other riddles in Silent Hill 1. But yeah this is going to focus more on dialoge and character interaction than fighting monsters. YOu want endless bloodshed ask about Resident Evil. ___________________________________________________________________

Chapter 3: Yugi

THe apartments were a rat maze. That was for sure. It was get this, find that, just about every door was locked. Still those creatures roamed every corner. There was one creature in particular that scared him the most. It glared at him through the gate and for once he was thankful there was a locked door between him and it. Somehow he knew it was there for him. And that it spelled trouble and something inside him he didn't really want to remember. Headache and all he was thankful that these creatures were easily taken care of. He had found a flashlight on a maneiqiun in one of the rooms. He paused at the fire gate, a key laying on the ground on the other side perked his intrest. Pegasus knelt softly on the ground, it would be simple enough stick your hand through and grab the key. Assuming there wasn't any creature who would knaw his arm off in the process. He grunted the key was apparently farther away than it looked. Footsteps, catching sight of a pair of tennis shoes which quickly kicked the key out of his reach. Amber eyes widened as the same shoe steped on his hand "Ow!!" He pulled back his hand sucking on his fingers to try to ease the newly induced pain. It was the good kind though, something caused by a human. The voice of a little boy giggled as a hand barely visible in the dark pointed "Ha-ha!" It mocked before running off "Hey wait!" He managed to get out before the little boy ran down the dark hallway until he was nothing more than a shadow. "Damn it!" He swore to himself still sucking on his figners.

He had found a handgun in a shopping cart. The room was rather shot up but the handgun wasn't damamged and he had managed to find several boxes of amunition. "But the question is Dear Watson," He smiled jokingly to himself. "What is a shopping cart doing in the middle of an appartment?" He shrugged and exited the room. A male scream rung in his ears as soon as he entered the hallway. It was human at least perhaps he Wasn't the only person here...well that little boy had been there but, he apparently would rather visit with the monsters that let dear old uncle Pegasus ask him any questions and have the nice key. He entered the room in which the scream originated from. Finding it marked as room 208. Opening the door he found the typical layout of an appartment. A figure seated at the TV his face stained with blood. The TV reflecting the splatter He felt himself sicken reasonably at this site. The last thing he wanted to see. ANother human dead. "Oh my God.... Who could've..." He held a hand over his mouth to keep himself from throwing up. Of all the things which could have upset him at the moment he saw the one he wanted to see the least.

Room 101 had been unlocked. The first floor of the appartments seemed like a reasonable place to find an exit. The door creaked shut behind him as he saw a site which sickened him. Mangled and smelling of fresh blood, the body of a man crammed into the refrigerator in the kitchen. It had been hasty the legs and mangled arms both at rather uncomfortable angles a look of absolute agony on the persons face. "What the...? Who could have done this..." He was beyond comprehending how anyone could ever do something that sick to a person. He struggled with his hearing. The sound of someone vomiting in the next room. Hesitantly he walked forewards, the radio remained content, there were no monsters in this particular room. It had to be human. Probably someone more unfortunate than him to have stumbled on this godforsaken sight. He turned the door knob a boy his hair spiked up almost unnnaturally magenta tips and blonde bangs which shook furiously with each time he threw up. He wore a loss blue and white stripped T-shirt and a pair of khaki shorts. He turned and looked frantically at Pegasus violet orbs full of fear. "It wasn't me! I didn't do it!" He yelled fighting back tears and shaking his head violently. "Do what?" Asked Pegasus several strands of silver falling around his shoudlers as he knelt down to eye level with the teen. "I didn't do anything. I, I swear! He was like this when I got here..." He cried once again frantically shaking his head. Pegasus really had no ideal what to say. This boy seemed so incredibly upset about something, perhaps it was just the fact that he had seen someone murdered in such a gross fashion. "My uh, my names Pegasus. Pegasus Crawford." The boy froze from his hysterical rantings "Ummm...Yugi." He said simply. Pegasus was slightly relieved, the boy was just nervous. "Yugi, who's that dead guy in the kitchen?" Wrong question, wrong time, not the best conversation starter. The boy began to look hysteric again the beads of sweat falling from his brow caused by the exertion of vomiting. "I didn't do it. I swear I didn't kill anybody." He froze once more "You're not friends with that red, pyramid thing, are you?" He looked rather dumbfounded at the question "Red pyramid thing? I don't know what yer talkin' about.Honest. But I did see some weird-lookin' monsters. They scared the hell outta me, so I ran in here..." He said his story sounding reasonably believable although he doubted that was all of it. "Well, I guess this place isn't too safe either. What happened here anyway?" He figured it was worth a try to ask a human willing to listen to him. Yugi shook his head sounding rather irritated "Uh I, I told ya I don't know. I'm not even from this town. I just, I just..." He chuckled softly although rather curious as to why people, normal people were getting dragged into this...this hellhole. "You too, huh. Something just brought you here, right?" He asked putting a hind on his chin in a thoughtful gesture. Yugi stuttered slightly then nodded "Umm... yeah. You could say that..." He nodded once more in acknowledgement "Well whatever it is... I think you better get out of here soon." The boy nodded standing up "Yeah yer right. What about you?" He asked a look of relief flashing on his face. "I'll leave as soon as I'm done here. Yugi... be careful." He said as he turned to go "Pegasus, I... I... um... You be careful too." He said softly uncertainly. Yes this was just a normal guy stuck in a place like this. Exactly like him.

The adjacent appartment building was just as bad it was even more like a rat maze. After getting that key the child from earlier had kicked away he entered the appartments. He then walked into the bedroom of one of the nearby rooms. Room 109. The boy from earlier his gaze vacant and dreamlike as he gazed into his reflection in a nearby wall length mirror. What worried Pegasus was that he was also holding a butcher knife. White hair spread about his body. "Oh... it's you." He whispered softly as if expecting someone else. "Yeah... I'm Pegasus." He said gently worried he might do something to trigger this boys rage. "Ryou."

He spoke softly his accent not wavering his voice not getting any louder. It was soft and tired sounding. " Ryou... okay. I don't know what you're planning..." He said taking a step towards him "But there's always another way." He placed the knife in front of his face looking up at Pegasus through hollowed brown orbs. "Really? But... You're the same as me. It's easier just to run.

Besides, it's what we deserve." He looked puzzled. What was he talking about? His anger at the boys soft half willing comment "No... I'm not like you." His voice took on a sarcastic tone which he never thought he would hear from the person. "Are you afraid?" He asked sitting up with a cruel look in his eyes which suddenly disappeared "I, I'm sorry." He apologized softly "It's okay... Did you find your mother?" He said softly asking the question to try to make conversation. ANything to stall what he knew might happen. "Not yet... She's not anywhere." He said softly. Pegasus looked concerned "Did she live in this apartment building?" He shook his head "I don't know..." As he stood up. "So all you know is she lived in this town?" He froze a glare heating up his pale face "What did you say? How do you know that?" He asked squinting his eyes dangerously as he walked towards the pale haired older man. "Well... I just figured, cause this is where you're looking for her." He shrugged "How else would I know?" His gaze lightened as the knife dropped to his side. "Yeah..."

"Am I right?" He turned away softly rocking on the balls of his feet "I'm so tired..." He whispered softly. Pegasus sighed apparently he was not really going to get anywhere with him at this time. "So why did you come to this town anyway?" He turned tucking away a strand of white hair. "...I, I'm sorry. Did you find... the person you're looking for?" He asked smiling softly a fake smile. He had done the same so many times for Cecilia. "Not yet." He said taking out the picture of the woman stopping down to show it the boy. "Her name's Cecilia. She's my wife..." Ryou carefully examined the picture and shook his head indicating that he did not recognize Cecilia. "I'm sorry." He said softly handing the picture back to Pegasus "It's okay. Anyway, she's dead. I don't know why I think she's here." Brown orbs full of confusion stared back at him "...She's dead?" He cocked his head to the side Pegasus noting the semi cute way the strands fell with his every movement. "Don't worry, I'm not crazy. Least, I don't think so..." He said with a chuckle as Ryou rose "I've gotta find my mama..." He stood once again and began to walk towards the door. Pegasus stopped him. "Should I go with you? This town's dangerous. Now I know what you meant back there in the cemetery." He shook his hair faking a smile softly "I'll be okay by myself. Besides, I'd just slow you down."

"What about that?" He pointed to the knife still clutched in Ryou's right hand. He nodded and turned to him. "Will you hold it for me?" He nodded relieved the boy wasn't going to kill himself. "Sure. No problem." He chuckled slightly as he walked towards him "If I kept it.... I'm not sure what I might do." Pegasus took a step foreward and reach out to take the knife from Ryou. The boy fell back a scream emerging from his lips as he fearfully pointed the knife at the older man. "No!! I'm sorry...I've been bad... Please don't..." He backed up hesitantly setting the knife down on the nearby table and nearly running out of the room. He walked over wondering about the boy. He picked up the knife. Noting the bloodstain on it's edge. He wasn't going to use it as a weapon. Doing so would only make him think of the boy. Ryou. What exactly was Wrong with him? What was wrong with this town?
