Chapter Three:

The Shadows

"What are you talking about Yugi?" asked Yami stunned

"Yami don't. I know that your the prince from the Dark Wings clan. I know you're Atemu." said Yugi and Yami smiled. He should have known that his small love would have figured it out.

"He never really got you did he?" asked Yami. "You really are Akan, aren't you?"

"Yes." said Yugi.

"But Seto said that you were gone. He was there." Yami said confused

"I nearly was. You see my grandfather told me to run after you didn't come then Ackron attacked. He knew that the vampire would attack me and so he made me leave without you."

"You were waiting for me?" asked Yami shocked. It was the same day that they had the fight never did he think Akan would wait for him.

"Yeah but even though I ran Ackron caught up with me and attacked mercilessly. I had noticed that Seto was there with him being forced to watch and I tried to ask him to find you. When Ackron assumed I was dead the left and I almost did die."

"How did you survive?" asked Yami though he was grateful that he did.

"Ambrose and Alumos. They found me and brought my grandfather. If they hadn't I would be dead."

"Yugi." said Yami and he pulled his love into his arms again. As he held his Abiou he thought about what he had said about waiting for him. Yami remembered that he told Yugi if he didn't hide alone then he would hide with him. However before he could his grandfather sealed him away. Then he thought back to when he was released. He remembered how Ambrose and Nekoda helped him and sent him to his grandfather's castle. They had known that he would look for his love and that Seto had been watching Ackron and would know of Yugi. He was grateful for everything his friends had done for him but there was one thing that he just had to know. "Yugi I was wondering, why didn't you tell me before know?"

"Because I was scared you were angry with me."

"For what?" asked Yami

"The fight." said Yugi looking down.

"Oh Yugi. It wasn't your fault. I should have stood up to my grandfather instead of asking you to run."

"Well now you don't have to stand up to him alone." Said Yugi and Yami smiled. It was like they were never separated.

Malik walked over to his spiky haired friend and looked at the tow vampires. He didn't want to brake up the scene but everyone else was there and they need to see what everyone wanted to do for that day. "Hey Yugi." called Malik and Yami groaned

"Oh hey Malik." said Yugi pulling from Yami's arms smiling. "Everyone here?"

"Yeah." said Malik

"Okay." said Yugi and the three walked to their friends. As they walked Malik noticed the his little friend was much happier than he had been when he had met the little Vampire and he had a feeling it had to do with Yami. But there was something different about Yami than any other Vampire Malik had met and he had a feeling he knew what it was.

So he walked up to Yugi "Hey Yugi is it true about Yami?"

"Yeah, it is." said Yugi and he caught up to Yami and walked next to his love.

Later that day as Yugi and Yami walked back to the game shop Yugi asked Yami if he had known the truth when they had first met a month ago about him and his grandfather. Yami looked at Yugi and he had admit that it seemed that it was strange that Yami had just appeared out of the blue after three thousand years.

"To be honest I didn't know that you or your grandfather, were vampires until earlier today when Your grandfather pulled me aside and asked me if I was ever going to tell him that I was related to the ass."

Yugi laughed when he heard the way his tall love talked about his grandfather, but he didn't blame him. If it wasn't for Ackron Yugi and Yami would have been happier back in the world that they had met in. "How did you figure out about Grandpa?"

"He basically told me after he mentioned that he was a very old enemy of Ackron." said Yami "That was one of the stories that Seto and I heard repeatedly growing up."

"Wow. By the way when you told Ackron that the Malachi family wasn't compleletly wiped out did you mean Ambrose?"

"Actually I meant Ambrose and Nekoda." said Yami "Speaking of which who is Alumos?"

"He's my brother." said Yugi. "That's one of the reasons I didn't want to run. Alumos was real young at the time and since he didn't know anything about Ackron and You and me I knew that Ackron would go after him to get to me if I disappeared."

"But you said that he and Ambrose found you." said Yami confused about how he was with Ambrose if he was with their grandfather when Yugi ran

"Yeah Grandpa sent him to Ambrose after Adrian was killed before I ran. That's how he was with Ambrose."

"But he wasn't there when he and Nekoda helped me." said Yami

"Because he was going to get someone special to him then come here." said Yugi. "Speaking of which he should be here any minute."

Just then Yami heard a voice call out to Yugi and turned to see a boy the same height and build ask Yugi but had solid black hair. With him stood a beautiful young girl with long black hair that faded into a light brown, which made no sense to Yami.

"Speak of the devil." said Yugi to Yami turning to his brother. "Hey Alumos. This the one?"

"Yeah this is Alina Shadowstar." said Alumos. "So this must be Yami. Ambrose and Nekoda told me a lot about you before I left."

"Yeah… okay." said Yami confused.

"Yami this is Alumos my brother." said Yugi sensing his love's confusion.

"Anyway Yugi we had better get going. I'm sure ever since Ambrose called me and told me what had happened back in Eygpt that Ackron is on high alert and I don't wand Alina pulled into a battle."

"Why not Alumos?" asked Alina "Is this guy really that strong?"

"Yes I nearly lost my brother three thousand years ago because of that guy."

"None the less Alumos is right. Yami come on." said Yugi and he lead the four of them back to the game shop never suspecting that there would be a battle bigger than the one that started Three thousand years ago with Ackron. No one would have ever believed that the one who started the hatred towards Yugi's family had been returned and sought vengeance against the two clans that wronged him.

Yugi and Yami's two clans. That was why they were known and the Light and Dark wings. Though none of them knew the truth except for Ackron and Süchïno. But they would learn soon enough and then Yugi and Yami would truly be in for the fight of their lives.
