Author's Note: Well, sadly, this story's almost done. Don't be so sad
though, I do write others.
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! but Remedy is mine.
Yoko- I came up with the Dragon Flame a LONG time ago. It was a tool for one of my other stories, on my website, and it keeps appearing in that particular series. Well, it's just kind of become a part of Kaiba that I use frequently and the thing is, using the Dragon Flame has conquences. Kaiba and I have yet to figure out all it's powers.
Miesho- I am honored to have you reading my story and glad that you want to read more. If truth be known, I'm not much of a reading person myself because the books that are out there don't interest me, but fan fiction does.
Jasmine 5- I know it's getting good. And I hope you like this.
Gamefanatic- Daniel, is that you?? Well, go get some new pants on.
Seto stirred. He couldn't remember what happened. He could feel the Dragon Flame ontop of his shirt. What was it doing there? He could feel it pulsate in time with his heart. The Flame would get warmer, then cooler, all the time keeping with his own pulse. Seto opened his eyes.
He was in his room, but how'd he get here. Last thing he remembered, he was in a chair in a basement, then everything went black and he woke up here.
Seto sat up. The Dragon Flame stopped pulsing. Seto's head spun a little, but he felt otherwise fine. Wait, what was that?
He looked around. He thought he had heard something. But that was impossible. It must've been his imagination. Seto looked over in the way of the door to see Remedy.
"Good to see you're awake," she told Seto, who jumped.
"Am I dead?" Seto asked in disbelief.
Remedy let out a small chuckle and replied, "Heck no, far from it actually. See, if you were dead, that means I would be too."
"Then, how can I," Seto started.
"Hear?" Remedy finished.
Seto nodded.
"Let me start from the beginning, or at least part of it," Remedy replied. "I was born with magic in me. I don't need an item, and my powers aren't all powerful, but I do have one, and that is to heal. I can't heal myself, and I can't always control what it heals, but I still have the power. Now, when we were down in the basement, you helped me by using your Dragon Flame to protect me, so, I used my powers to help you. I wanted to really only heal your minor injuries and get your consent on healing your ears, but my magic wouldn't allow it. It was either heal everything, or heal nothing."
Seto didn't say anything, he just looked down at the sheets that covered his knees.
"You're not mad, are you?" Remedy asked quietly, sitting down at the end of the bed, looking at Seto.
"No, it's just, this is hard for me to say, but," Seto hesitated, "thank you, for everything. You stuck through it when most people would have just walked away. No one outside this family has ever done that."
"You're wrong, I did walk away, when I found you doing your homework when you really should have been resting," Remedy corrected.
"But you came back," Seto told her, looking at her.
"Yeah, I guess I did," Remedy grinned.
"Have you regret it?" Seto asked.
"Well, besides being yelled at and hurt, nope, not one bit," Remedy answered.
Seto then questioned, "You're not just saying that?"
"I mean it," Remedy assured Seto, looking him straight into the eyes.
Seto half-way grinned at this. She was the person he had been looking for for so many years.
"So, what's it like to hear again?" Remedy asked suddenly.
"It's great," Seto stated.
"I hope my voice didn't disappoint you," Remedy told Seto.
"What do you mean?" Seto asked.
"I mean, I hope that what you thought my voice sounded like, and what it really sounds like weren't all that different," Remedy restated.
"It sounds just like I thought it would, and even if it didn't, I wouldn't think of you any different," Seto assured her.
Remedy hugged Seto. Seto was shocked at first, but soon awardly returned the hug.
Just then the phone rang. Mokuba picked it up.
"Hello?" Mokuba answered.
"Hi, may I speak with Remedy?" a woman's voice asked.
"I'll get her for you, just a sec," Mokuba replied.
He clamped his hand over the reciever and made it to Seto's room. Mokuba knocked on the door. Remedy answered.
"Yes?" she said.
"It's for you," Mokuba told her, holding the phone up.
Remedy looked at Seto, her hand on the phone.
"It's my parents, they're back home now, and they want me to come back, unless you want me to stay here," Remedy told Seto.
Seto was silent for a moment, and then replied with, "Tell them that I insist you stay here because I don't know what I would do without you."
Remedy smiled.
Hold on, there's one more thing coming!
