MG: Hi again It's millennium girl. X3

Yugi: and Yugi.

Atemu: Yugi, MG, what are you guys talking about now?

MG: Nothing major just that this includes some rare favors from you.

Atemu: (points to himself) a favor from me?

MG: You'll see. D

Atemu: -_- I don't like that look MG. enjoy the chapter.


At the end of the day, Atemu spotted Kaiba getting into his limo. "KAIBA!" Atemu ran up to Kaiba. He glared at Atemu. "Atemu what the hell do you want?"

"I need you do something for me."

"And that will be what?"

"I need to have a copy of all the coma patients from Miracle hospital…dates, everything." Kaiba gave Atemu an awkward look. "You need what? Why the hell do you need that stuff?"

"I have a bad feeling about that hospital…I just can't shake the feeling that there is something wrong going on there and it is costing innocent lives." Kaiba shook his head in contemplation. "hmm."

"Kaiba please…I usually don't beg but this is an exception, please just help me out…if I get caught I won't even mention your name."

"This…Okay Atemu…just don't get caught. Get in the car." Atemu thanked Kaiba and they drove to his mansion.

Once at Kaiba's mansion, Kaiba hacked into the Miracle hospital data base. "Okay, you needed coma patients' right?"

"Yes." Atemu watched as Kaiba pulled up the record of recent coma patients. Kaiba frowned. "This is weird…" Atemu read the screen. "Each of the patients fell into coma after a minor surgery in operation room thirteen. That can't be a coincidence." Kaiba and Atemu looked at each other with a puzzled look. "Atemu, you have more than enough proof to state that there is something going on. The thing is figuring out what."

"Maybe I could get into that operation room and look for anything out of place." Kaiba shook his head. "Atemu you don't even know how an operation room looks like." Atemu sighed. "What other way is there?" Kaiba rolled his eyes. "I'll print off an image of their operation room and then you go in as a janitor or something and look around." Atemu nodded in agreement. "Okay."

Yugi was in the living room with Nefera. "Yugi…does Atemu like someone?"

Yugi looked at Nefera with a confused look. "Not that I know of why?"

"I just thought…maybe the reason…never mind."

"Nefera, do you like him?" Nefera blushed then looked away. "No…" Yugi knew Nefera was lying. "Nefera, why did you choose that night…why did you never show your self when Atemu was in the puzzle?"

"I was scared…" Nefera looked down. "Scared?"

"I was scared of Atemu…I mean his uncle was the one who killed me as a baby and melted me into the gold. The millennium items have many spirits trapped. They are either angry at Atemu or scared. I was scared…but I admired him as well, I saw how he sacrificed himself to save the world…I could never do that." Yugi was confused. "But…Atemu never knew that the millennium items had so many spirits…he was trapped in darkness." Nefera shook her head. "No, the worst punishment for a soul is to lose your very identity. You never saw the many dark days of waiting in his tomb were he cried in internal misery… He was so frustrated, 'where am I…how did I get here…What did I do to deserve this…' That was the only thing he would ask himself…and the nightmares, even as a spirit, I could feel his nightmares and I knew they were flashbacks of his last breaths. He was in tormenting pain from the very moment he passed into the realm of wandering souls. Lost, frustrated, and scared of himself." Yugi looked down and remembered the time Atemu was challenged by Shadi (Atemu showed Yugi his memory of this account.) and Atemu even admitted that he did not know the true power of the millennium puzzle. Yugi also knew that Atemu never slept at night and even now he tends to avoid sleeping. Was Atemu afraid of having those flashbacks of dying? Yugi felt bad for not even considering that as a possibility. "Nefera…do you get those flashbacks of you dying?" She shook her head. "It's not common…actually Atemu was the only spirit I knew that had such horrible flashbacks of dying…I think that was the curse of the puzzle, you may have lost your memories but something will stick and that something will be your death. Atemu nearly went nuts. If he was alive during that ordeal…I think he would have been suicidal…but he was already dead and I think that's was killed him inside the most was the fact that he couldn't stop the pain. There were times where he cried out for days non stop begging the gods to just let him rest, to just give him someone anyone to comfort him and I…I couldn't reach out and sooth him…I feel bad for not being able to sooth him from his pain. That's why he loves you so much Yugi. You and your friends and family gives him that comfort, He didn't care who won that ceremonial duel…He knew he was going to be loved from both his family and his friends from the past and now." Yugi knew Atemu was happy here because he chose to stay here. "Nefera, I think that you could make him the happiest guy around if you told him about how you felt about that ordeal. I mean you said you wanted to sooth him from that pain, but couldn't. I think that just the thought will make him happy. He won't feel so guilty."

"Guilty?"

"Yea, I think in a way, Atemu feels guilty for ever knowing that there were innocent lives sacrificed to make the millennium items. I assume he is like his father that way, he pushes himself a lot and really tries to not let anyone see that he is hurt or needs help." Nefera nodded in agreement. "I recall him playing that green card one time…" Yugi nodded. "Yea, that hit him hard." Nefera sighed. "It hurt him that he didn't know who he really was so those words really hurt him. Yugi you said that I should tell him about that time…what if it makes him upset or…hurts him?"

"It won't, I promise you that."


MG: AWW isn't that sweet 3 Nefera does care for Atemu.

Atemu: and I am trying to sneak into a hospital...and Kaiba agreed to help? I find that highly unlikly.

Yugi: Atemu you know better than to sneak into places...and Kaiba does help us out when he wants to.

MG: Please review.

Yugi: and stay tuned for the next chapter.

Atemu:...-_-' I got nothing to say...see you later then.
