It is because of you people I'm smiling now and I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. Now. ON WITH THE STORY!
Disclaimer: Do I own Yugioh? Can I juggle more than two balls well? Sadly no.
Everyone stared at Yugi in shock and disbelief at what he came downstairs in. Ryou turned to Atemu. 'You put him in a dress!' Atemu nodded his head as Yugi was indeed in a dress. He had on a sleeveless purple dress that went to his knees and hugged all of his feminine curves. He had on strappy silver high heels with red hearts on the sides and everyone stared as he came downstairs holding on to the railing to keep from tripping once again. Although he seemed to be handling the ten inch heels with surprising ease.
No one could even think of anything bad about the dress. He looked better in it than anything else the people in the room could put him in! He reached the bottom step and walked over to the group. He looked into the camera and gave his most charming smile. 'Hello, my name is Yugi and I am the grateful orphan that Atemu has adopted.' And just like that, every reporter and every person who was watching was in love with the little boy in the purple dress and heels.
The event progressed with the reporters talking to the orphans and their new guardians. All the orphans were humble and tried to direct the conversation back to their adopters as much as possible to avoid attention. Of course the one who got the most attention was Yugi. And in his situation, that was very bad.
They didn't want to reveal how Yugi had been living and how he had been treated in the orphanage just yet. They wanted to make sure they knew all the facts first and even then they probably wouldn't allow the truth of Yugi to get out. As much money as the sob story of the poor abused orphan would bring in, even Seto wasn't willing to take it that far. They made sure Yugi answered as minimal questions as possible and of course that he stood up. The last thing they wanted was for him to start bleeding again because that would give away the secret.
Eventually Seto, Bakura, Marik and Atemu had to back off and all the questions were directed to the orphans. They stood and watched and looked in fear when it was finally Yugi's turn to talk to the reporter. A raven haired reporter with friendly green eyes walked up to him. 'So Yugi, what was it like in your old orphanage? Was it a nice place?' Everyone looked at Yugi in fear. He had answered all the questions before with the help of Atemu but now he had to fend for himself. He had to stand on his own two feet and he knew that. So Yugi smiled up at the reporter with a bright smile and spoke in the most humbled tone ever.
'Oh my orphanage was nicer than some others but it does not compare to this gorgeous home that I am fortunate enough to live in now. I am just so grateful to Atemu for picking me of all the other orphans there. I feel so lucky and so happy. This is the greatest day of my life.' The reporter smiled down at the boy on the outside.
But on the inside her reporter instincts were telling her he was hiding something and she would figure out what. But she smiled at him and continued with the questions. 'So Yugi, what made you decide to wear a dress to this occasion?' Once again Yugi smiled but he picked his words carefully, not wanting to give anything away. He knew that this whole time the others had been keeping his being raped a secret and he would not be the one to ruin that.
'I fell today and my clothes were dirty from the fall. I had to change but there was nothing to change into. Thankfully Atemu and Bakura had a bet last September and this was what the looser would have to wear.' Yugi spun around so everyone could get a good view of the dress.
The reporter looked down at the boy. He was good. Whatever secret he had he hid it well but she would get the truth from him. 'Well I have one last question for you Yugi, but you don't have to answer. Who were your parents?' Yugi gave a thoughtful expression for a moment before turning back to the reporter to answer her question.
'I don't know anything about them. No one would ever tell me. The only thing they ever said was that my last name was Mouto.' Everyone but the orphans stared at Yugi. The orphans didn't know Yugi's last name. But they didn't know the significance of the last name either. The reporter looked down at the boy and spoke slowly.
'And you don't know anything at all about your parents?' He looked up at her in confusion while everyone looked down at him in shock. Yugi shook his head no and everyone pretended like this had never happened. Everyone stopped staring, the reporter smiled again and it was as if nothing had happened. But something had. And everyone knew it. Even the orphans had seen the way everyone had stared at Yugi. Yugi did too but he just dismissed it and continued smiling up at the reporter who smiled down at him.
The reporter moved on to the other orphans and began to question Malik, Ryou, and Joey with the same questions. Meanwhile Yugi went to the kitchen to get some food. While he was in there one of the male reporters came into the kitchen as well, which was deserted. He noticed Yugi and smiled maliciously at him at the thought of how Yugi looked in that dress. More specifically though, how he would look without the dress. While Yugi's back was turned, the reporter grabbed him and turned him around.
'Hey beautiful. You're looking real good in that dress.' He tried to kiss Yugi but Yugi kept turning his head. The reporter pulled away and looked down at Yugi. 'Aw common baby, don't be like that. Just one little kiss.' Yugi continued to turn his head away and the reporter shrugged his shoulders. 'Suit yourself.' The reporter slammed Yugi against the kitchen floor and pinned him down beneath him. It was just like before only this time, Yugi didn't stay silent. He screamed, silently begging any god that would listen for someone to hear him.

Everyone in the living room heard Yugi scream out, begging for someone to help him. Atemu was the first one who ran to the kitchen with everyone else following close behind him. The sight that greeted them was not a pleasant one. The reporter was on top of Yugi and everyone watched as he tore off Yugi's dress and his boxers. Atemu stared at the sight in disgust for half a second before running and tackling the man to the ground.
Bakura and Seto went over and held the man who had attacked Yugi against the wall while he was still surprised. They all turned and looked at Yugi. He was curled up in a ball crying repeating the words 'Not again. Not again.' Everyone stared in horror as blood leaked from his bottom and Atemu eventually went over and picked him up. He turned to the reporters with narrowed eyes and he spoke in a hiss. 'Leave. Now.' The Sennen eye flashed on Atemu's head and just like that all of the reporters made a run for the door. Even the one who had tried to rape Yugi after he had been let go.
If Atemu had it his way, the man would be banished to the shadow realm, but since he couldn't he did the next best thing. He took Yugi upstairs so he could be cleaned for the third time that day. He looked down at Yugi and so many feelings flooded him at the sight of the boy. Fear for what could have happened, hate for the man who tried to rape Yugi, sadness that Yugi had to know what rape was from being a victim of it… love for the boy… Yes love, Atemu had finally identified the feeing. He loved this boy and he would do anything he could to protect him from now on. He would never watch what he just had again.
AN: So… much… drama. And even more to come! Thank you so much for reading following reviewing and favoriting! I am crying tears of joy because of you people! T.T
