Yugi heard breathing and the constant clicking of a phone as if someone was texting. He slowly opened his eyes, they were met with the comforting honey colored eyes of his friend Joey.

"Yuge, you're awake." Joey whispered. He gripped his friends hand.

Yugi nodded, he looked around to get a better look at his surroundings.

"Where am i?" He asked putting a hand to his forehead, noticing the iv connected to the back of his hand.

"You're in da hospital, doctor said ya was mildly malnourished, ya hips was dislocated and…ya got one nasty rattle snake bite there buddy."

Yugi nodded again, before he could say anything, the doctor walked in, "Ah, Mr. Motou, good you're awake." It was a cute doctor with an Australian accent. "How are you feeling?" She asked.

Yugi shrugged a bit. "As good as I can, considering the circumstances." He said in a slightly joking manner.

The doctor smiled. "Good!" she jotted a few notes down on her clip board. "Now Yugi, I came in to check on that bite you acquired, and also set up an x-ray to check on your hip bones, they were dislocated for a good amount of time and I just want to make clear that everything is alright."

Yugi and Joey nodded. "is the poison completely outta his system doc?" Joey asked.

"For the most part, its disintegrating as we speak, but im sure youre still feeling a bit woozy, am I right?"

Yugi nodded slightly, "Only a little."

The doctor nodded. "That's good, we gave you and antibiotic to get rid of the poison, it should be completely gone in a little while. (A/N: Yes, I know rattle snake bites are more fatal, but…just go with it, okay? Thanks!)

The doctor took both hands and placed them under each side of Yugi's jaw. "Your lymph nodes are a tad swollen, bein out in the wild outback with no food or water, that'll do it mate." She ended her sentence with a smile.

"So, Hes going to be alrigiht?" Yugi heard his grandfather ask.

Yugi smiled at the sight of him, it felt like years since hes seen the old man.

"Good morning, Yugi will be just fine, nothing a little nutrition can't fix. We'll have ya up and runnin in no time." She winked and turned towards her computer, typing away.

Yugi turned from the doctor to his friends, and mainly his grandfather. Eyes beaming as he gave his grandpa a hug.

"Yugi, my boy, i…I thought I had lost you." Grandpa said through unshed tears.

Yugi nodded. "Me to..." He voice was shaking with held in tears of his own.

"Were glad you're going to be okay Yugi!" Tea leaned over and placed a hand on Yugi's in a soothing manner.

Again he nodded. "Thanks Tea. I'm glad to see you, all of you." His eyes scanned the room, eyes meeting as they went across the room. Yugi had a smile on his face, until he met Tristan's tear stained face, which he was hiding behind his arm.

"Tristan…" Yugi started. His red puffy eyes met the violet orbs that were so caring. Yugi's arms were out stretched towards him, that face he makes when hes telling you everything is alright, without saying a single word.

"Yugi, I…" Suddenly, he found it difficult to find the words to say, everyone saw his emotions fly and he's supposed to be one of the two more macho guys in the group.

Gramps had the same look on his face that Yugi did, Tea looked touched that he was feeling this way towards Yugi's condtion, and Joey had a huge smirk on his face, Tristan knew by that look he wouldn't hear the end of this for at least a year.

"Yugi, I…wasn't sure what I would be coming here to find, I…wasn't sure if you were alive or…dead." His last word brought more tears to his eyes pushing the rest of them over the edge. He sat on the bed, not caring what the others thought, he had almost lost his little buddy.

He gave Yugi a hug, Yugi was smiling at his friends behavior, as were the others.

"I'm going to be just fine Tristan, I didn't survive a plane crash and a rattle snake bite for nothing." Yugi said trying to lighten the mood.

"I know." Tristan said, straightening up and calming down, "I know, It was uhh…just scary, that's all."

Everyone giggled a little.

"Yugi, we have x-rays all set up for you. Are you all set?"

Yugi shrugged. "As ready as I'll ever be."

The doctor nodded as she snapped the breaks on his bed off. Other nurses came in and helped wheel him to the radiology department.

"Wouldn't it be easier to wheel him in a wheelchair there?" Joey asked following the group.

"The doctor looked back briefly, and then looked forward once more, "Yugi's hips were severely dislocated, putting him in a wheelchair would only harm him farther Mr. Wheeler."

Joey blushed. The only thing he could think of to say was. "Oh, Oh yeah."

Yugi was wheeled into the X-ray room and now…we wait for the results. '
