Next chapter! I decided to add a little extra for the flashback for kicks. I mean who wouldn't want to see a tiny Atem? He's so cute! ^^ Review please!

"Ever since then, you've been wanting to solve that puzzle and spend all your hours on... Atem are you paying attention?" Solomon asked. It was passed midnight and he was telling Atem one of his favorite stories about how he got the puzzle by his grandson's bedside. Yugi smiled brightly, laying his head on something invisible.

"Brother already nodded off I'm afraid," Yugi said.

Solomon sighed in relief, then said, "good, I was afraid that boy would never get to sleep. It's 2:30 in the morning."

"Thanks for getting Brother to sleep."

"One thing I know about my grandson is that he always goes to sleep when I tell him my historical adventures... though I hate how it effects his grades."

Yugi chuckled, then yawned aloud, before turning on his front side, wrapping his arms around Atem's waist and resting his head on Atem's chest. Solomon chuckled before tucking Yugi into bed and kissing the side of his head.

"You best get to sleep too. You have a big day tomorrow, as you know," Solomon said.

"I know. Thanks again," Yugi thanked as Solomon showed a cheery smile before carefully closing the door.

Yugi sighed, then slowly closed his eyes as he found himself being warped inside his mind room that was just a huge bright maze. He walked through the door and entered the door to his brother's mind room. Yugi found himself sitting on a huge tree with Atem, both boys leaning against each other. Yugi smiled, then felt Atem's embrace, the boys were holding each other close. Yugi wanted to hold his brother as long as he could before he'd retrieve his memories and leave Atem forever.

Yugi slightly moaned as he nuzzled his face on the side of Atem's neck. This was probably going to be their last day of ever being together and holding each other like this. Yugi never wanted this moment to end.

"You know, it was about time you went to sleep," Yugi smirked as Atem folded his arms on his brother's chest and rested his chin on them.

"Thanks for putting me through torture. I'm surprised this isn't a nightmare," Atem replied. He was used to knowing if a dream was a dream or not without waking up. "I'm also excited you're getting your memories back. I know you've been wanting this for a long time."

"I know!" Yugi said with a childish smile, then began playing with Atem's golden locks. Atem's and Yugi's hair looked their natural color when they were inside their dreams or soul rooms. "I'm going to miss you, Brother."

"I'm going to miss you too," Atem admitted quietly as he rubbed his fingers on the bottom of Yugi's golden lock. He wanted to use this time to look back at all the memories and good times he had with Yugi, but there were so many. Atem let out a sigh while slowly laying his head on Yugi's chest, using his folded arms as a pillow.

"Atem, I know who I am. I am the soul of an Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh, who sealed his soul into the puzzle. I met you and we became really close brothers. I met Hanaski, and Tea, and Joey, and Tristan, and Seto... new memories. I'll always cherish them, especially the times we were together. Like the first day we met."

"Don't remind me," Atem sighed while rolling his eyes.

"I saw you inside your soul room and I held you so tight, because I was so excited that we could finally touch!"

"And you were torture, because you kept wanting to hug me like a stuffed teddy bear and I actually couldn't sleep without it!"

Yugi grinned childishly as Atem snorted out a chuckle, then said, "at least you calmed down a bit later on... even though it took a whole year."

"We still snuggle."

"Not as much and not so much I have to wrestle off a guy my age acting like he's three."

"You liked it."

"Shut up!" Atem said as Yugi rolled his eyes, playing with his brother's hair. "You know, it's just like when I put the pieces of the puzzle together. It's time that you put the pieces of your memory together."

"Right!"

"As long as you need me, I'll always be with you."

"Thanks Brother... I love you."

"I love you too," Atem said, then embraced Yugi tightly once more. Just then...

CRASH!

Atem gasped and woke up, only to spot some thief grabbing the three Egyptian god cards inside the puzzle box. Atem glared intensely thinking, 'I knew I should've asked Serena for a night check!'

"HEY! Give those back!" Atem shouted as the thief snatched his hand from the broken window and ran across the roof.

Atem was following the thief in his boxers, since that was the only thing he wore to bed. He didn't care, he wanted those god cards back or Yugi would never gain back his memories. He jumped across rooftops, following the running thief. Then, Atem jumped off from one of the roofs to the fire escape, then slid down the pole next to it, and tackled the thief to the ground. He was able to snatch the puzzle box with the Egyptian god cards as the thief tried to throw a punch, hitting Atem's left cheek. Atem didn't flinch. He took both his opponent's wrists, and then crossed them before holding them with his left arm and punching the thief across the jaw.

Atem quickly got on his feet as he began running down the sidewalk back to his house. He looked behind him and noticed the thief chasing him before he got out his pistol he usually hid under his pillow. It was always with him just in case thieves tried to break in. The thief stopped.

"Run while you can," Atem warned as the thief ran from him and he held the pistol down. He checked the gun in his hand and glared at it. "You're lucky I forgot to unlock the safety lock." He began walking down the sidewalk on his way home. Just then, he noticed an older man walking by with a cigarette in his mouth and a creepy looking smile.

"Hey kid, what cha doin' walking around these parts?" The man asked.

"Why are you talking to me?" Atem snapped while walking passed him before the man turned to attack him. Though, Atem dodged it and ripped the coat from the man before making him fall to his feet in an instant. "Thanks for the coat. Attack me again and I'll put a bullet right up your ass." The man could see Atem wasn't joking, seeing that he had the gun in his hand and showed the safety was off this time. "No wonder Mom is single."

On the other side of the world, stood a mansion somewhere in Miami. The mansion had stained glass windows almost everywhere on the outside of the house, white-painted house, a marble floor with mixed bright colors, a few fancy carpets, a huge black leather couch, two white comfy chairs, a TV screen on the wall with buttons beside it, a glass coffee table, two stereos on both sides of the TV screen, a bookshelf on the right with who knows how many books, and several random pictures, one being of Pegasus with his arms around two twin boys, who showed perky faces of happiness and joy.

One of the twins was sitting on one of the comfy chairs reading a book called Mysteries of Sherlock Holmes. The mansion was quiet and seemed like a good time to read anything interesting. The twin showed furrowed eyebrows, getting deep into the story he was reading about this very intelligent detective solving crimes. He suddenly heard the doorbell ring.

The twin sighed as he placed the book down, saving his spot, and opened the door. He rose two eyebrows when he saw a man with a small brown box in his hand with a curtain address from Japan and an anonymous name. He never remembered ordering anything, neither him or his twin.

"Delivery sir?" The man asked.

"Who is it from?" Yako asked.

"Japan sir. That's all I can tell ya."

"Thank you."

Yako signed his signature, then closed the door as he heard his brother walk downstairs with a white robe around himself. He was very tired and seemed to have been woken up from his beauty sleep.

"Who was that?" Gekko asked.

"A mailman dropping off a delivery for us, but from someone anonymous," Yako replied.

"Well, that's just odd!"

"No duh! I wonder what this is?"

"Maybe it's a bomb from some group of terrorists," Gekko teased as Yako shot his brother a glare.

"You watch the news way too much. Besides, that wouldn't make any sense, because terrorists end up killing themselves when setting off a bomb."

Yako opened the brown box and looked inside, hoping it wasn't poison or anything. Once he opened it, he let out a small gasped and widened eyes. It was the millennium eye and a note under it! Yako took the note and opened it. Gekko looked over his brother's shoulder to read what the paper said.

"Tenma's, I've invited you to join a little game of mine with Yugi. Think of the eye as an invitation. I'm sure your father would be very proud of you both. It's just too bad his life had to go to waste. My two hosts and I will be waiting for you... Ryan Bakura..."

"It was Ryan? He's the murderer?" Gekko asked with an angry tone. He glared his eyes away from the note. "Son of a bitch."

"He said 'host,' that means it's not the real Ryan and he's possessed. He's probably a millennium item wielder like Atem and Pegasus."

"What are you going to do?"

"You mean we. We're going to play this game and make that son of a bitch pay!"

"But what about Yugi's memories? We can't just get ourselves involved in something out of our control!"

"I'm not going to turn down a challenge! You can back down, but I'm not."

"I didn't say I would back down."

"Then welcome aboard," Yako smirked as Gekko nodded, then took the millennium eye from the small box.

"As always," Gekko smirked with folded arms.

Yako walked to his phone and dialed a curtain number while Gekko walked upstairs to dress into more decent clothes. Yako let out a huge sigh before hearing someone pick up from the other line.

"I need you to send me a private jet. We're going to Japan."
