A/n: I love this chapter, it's full of twists and although it's a little dramatic, it's worth it. Also, the Dare game that the boys play makes me smile! The first part is from Yugi's third person point of view, so don't get confused with the She Ryou stuff, Yugi doesn't know Ryou's a boy only Ryou, Marik and You know that.


Yugi glanced out of the window of his game shop. He looked up the market place and then down the market, it was still very early so it wasn't busy in the least. Seeing that no one he feared was around he breathed easier. He then turned his closed sign around so that it read open. He ran behind the counter to keep his post for the rest of the day.

It surprised him when only a moment later the door opened. He hadn't seen anyone near enough to arrive that quickly. The party that entered wasn't to his disliking however and it consisted of what looked like: a young blond boy, followed by a silver-haired girl, and finally a tri-haired color teen. The tri-hair color was similar to his hair color, but the style was very different.

"Wow look over dere," The first exclaimed gesturing to the far wall. He and his friend began to browse the shelves with a delight of a child on Christmas.

Shortly after, the girl made her way to the counter. "Hi," She smiled sweetly to Yugi.

"Hi!" Yugi's eyes lit up at being addressed, not as a child, but as a friend. Yugi didn't have too many of those and his eager reply was only natural.

"Looks like those two will be in here for a while. We just got into town, last night. This is the first place Yami wanted to visit this morning," She explained to Yugi.

"Oh, so you're in here to buy something?" Yugi looked as much as he felt disappointed. She was very friendly, nice, it made Yugi wanted to talk to her for a longer then the time she would be spending in his shop.

"Well, yes," She frowned gently at the smaller boy's disappointed look. "I'm Ryou!"

"Yugi," He whispered politely, without the same enthusiasm as before. In fact, he didn't even look up from the counter to speak to Ryou properly.

Whether Ryou felt bad for Yugi or she was just finding something to talk about while she waited for her friends, Yugi didn't know why she leaned over the counter and said in a have flirting half admiring way: "Which game is your favorite?"

"Oh well, I like this Duel Monsters. Most people just come in to buy a chessboard. I don't understand why simple peasants need to know how to play a game based off of war strategies." Yugi chirped. He was glad ,for whatever reason, that Ryou was taking an interest in him.

"You have me. I was never even allowed to play games as a girl. Mom said they were better ways for me to waste my time...Are you staring at Yami?" Ryou, tilted her head and raised an eyebrow. Yugi hadn't realized that instead of keeping his eyes on her that he kept letting them drift to the tri-haired teen.

He blushed when he replied, "N-no." He knew his answer wasn't very good. He didn't even have to look at Ryou's skeptics look. "I mean just his bum."

Yugi had to join Ryou when she started to giggle. It wasn't cruel at all it was a sweet fond giggle that she was sharing with him. "You like him?" She asked when the giggles had mostly gone away.

"Who wouldn't?" He countered. "He's toned and-and gorgeous," he backed up his argument.

Ryou smiled. Yugi smiled.


Marik bounced into the shop singing, "Yami, Bakura says he'll have your head if you're not within his sights in five minutes. Not that head you pervert!" Marik watched Yami exchange a look with Jou before leaving the shop. Marik continued to bounce until he was right up on the counter. "Hi!"

Ryou smiled at Marik. He waited for the door to shut before replying, "Hey Marik-chan. This kid here is Yugi, he likes Yami-kun and his bum!"

"Doesn't everyone?" Marik agreed. He leaned back on the counter looking up at Yugi, "Know any good places to dance?"

"Sure, I do. There is an under ground place just a few shops down. If you go in and tell them 'polly ollie doodle ollie day' they'll let you in," Yugi explained.

"Okay. You should meet us there later tonight, Yugi-boy." Marik smiled, "Maybe Yami-chan will dance with you."

"W-well...alright," Yugi nodded, blushing shyly, "I'll see you tonight then Marik? Ryou-chan?"

"And leave her behind. I don't think so," Marik jumped off of the counter.

"Come on Ryou," he said waiting for her at the door. They left the shop together. Ryou put his arm in Marik's and they continued on comfortably together. Ryou stole a glance behind him watching the shop disappear from sight. He saw a strange thick ugly looking man enter the quaint shop, Ryou narrowed his eyes.

"Wow, that's almost as scary as Bakura!" Honda's voice and comment brought Ryou back to what was in front of him. Marik had brought them over to the other boys and the shop was no longer visible. It also seemed that, some of the other boys were quite worried about the look on Ryou's features.

"Hey have you heard anything I said?" Marik complained loudly.

"Um...well...hey what's that?" Ryou pointed to something behind Marik. He was pleased to see that the entire group of curious boys looked in the direction that he had pointed. Giving him a chance to escape Marik, Ryou began to creep away keeping an eye on his disorientated friends he didn't see it coming when he ran smack into the front of Bakura.

"Mmm, pleasure, I'm sure," Bakura breathed gently against his (Ryou's) neck. Capturing Ryou in his grip, he placed his chin on Ryou's shoulder and said, "Look who is trying to escape." The other boys stopped looking at what they though Ryou had pointed to and looked back at Bakura and his captive. In a moment they were all blushing at being tricked like that by Ryou.

Ryou thought it was a good idea to change the subject, "Let's go back to the Inn now."

"I agree. I want to get a nap in before I have to get ready for tonight!" Malik said. He was obviously planning for a very late night. He gestured down the street to their place for the weekend.

"I'll go with you!" Marik chirped his reply, even though it had been silently agreed that, that's what the entire group was going to do.


Ryou felt really weird. He was the only one that seemed to worry about where Yugi was. They had been at the dance bar for a few hours and the cute little boy hadn't arrived yet. Ryou really wanted to see him again. It did occur to Ryou that Marik was the only other person in their party that knew Yugi was supposed to meet them, but Marik didn't seem concerned. He was currently sandwiched between two dance partners, rubbing against them and licking beer off of Malik.

Ryou, although he tried, couldn't have fun when he was worrying. Something about the way Yugi had been that day bothered Ryou and so that's why he was mostly concerned. If Malik had never joined them at the bar before Ryou would not have worried because he knew Malik probably was busy having fun somewhere else. But, with Yugi, Ryou knew that the young boy would have been there unless something bad had happened!

"What's wrong, Ryou?" Jou asked. He had just sat down to take a break. He was smiling brightly, but he saw that Ryou wasn't so he was curious.

"I'm worried about Yugi," Ryou admitted to Jou. The blond nodded in understanding but then frowned in confusion tilting his head curiously. "Yugi's the boy that was in the game shop this morning. There was just something about him. He was so scared. So lonely. I feel like I should check on him to see if he's okay."

"Why, I mean you don't even know where he is?" Jou said.

"He's supposed to be here. Marik invited him," Ryou fretted, he even put his head into his hands. "I just know something's wrong."

"Okay. I'll go with ya and we'll check, common." Jou stood up bringing Ryou with him. Ryou was surprised by this but he didn't argue.


Ryou hurried down the street to the game shop, he had noticed it had an apartment attached to the back. Jou jogged in order to keep up. Ryou was worried, Jou didn't know why, but he trusted that whatever it was it was important!

Ryou knocked on the door to the house and was shocked to find that it swung open from the slight touch. Cautiously he stepped in with Jou at his heals. Jou shut the door behind him and kept pace with Ryou. "Yugi? It's me Ryou. Do you remember we met this morning? I was worried about you."

"Who are ya talkin' ta?" Jou drawled.

"I don't want him to think we're thieves or something." Ryou told the blonde softly. He went into the sitting room to further investigate. Ryou saw a soft light coming from a room off to the side. "Will you wait here, Jou?" Ryou stepped up to the door at the Blonde's nod. He knocked first before pressing the door open. He saw Yugi instantly. The boy was curled up on his knees in the middle of the floor.

Ryou stepped forward; he was no longer shy of naked boys. He paused when he saw Yugi stiffen as he sensed someone else's presences. "Please, don't hurt me. Don't hurt me again."

Ryou was happy that he had made his decision to find Yugi. He hesitated to make a move he was only worried that whatever he might to would frighten Yugi even more. He finally decided that speaking would be the best thing to do, he said, "Yugi, it is Ryou. I wouldn't hurt you."

"R-Ryou?" Yugi raised his head to look, "Ryou!" He jolted up right and landed on his feet, "You shouldn't see me like this."

"Don't worry Yugi. I wouldn't hurt you." He called softly for his companion in the other room. The blond bounced in immediately. "Will you help me bring him to the couch?"

"Sure," Jou picked Yugi up like a sack of potatoes bringing the small boy to the couch. "What happened ta ya?" He hovered over the naked boy anxiously.

Yugi shied from him staring down at his hands he didn't say anything. Ryou came in a moment later with some fresh clothes. "Here you are Yugi. Can you tell me what happened?" Yugi moved to his feet and with Jou's help he pulled his clothes on.

After the boy curled up on the couch resting his head on the armrest he answered Ryou's question with a slight shiver. "I guess I should tell you what happened."

"It's alright Yugi you don't have to," Ryou sat next to him rubbing his back soothingly. "Jou can you go back, please tell the other boys that we are going to be ok. I don't want them to worry. Also, I'll probably stay with Yugi tonight, if they ask you can tell them that too."

"Sure Ryou," Jou chirped happily. He knelt closer to Yugi pushing his bangs from his forehead. "Is that alright Yugi?"

The smaller teen nodded his head in agreement. "My Grandpa is away for the night. I don't want to be alone again."

Ryou reached over and hugged him fondly, "I'll be here, Yugi." The blond rose to his full height leave the two with a short nod.


At first, the time between Yugi and Ryou was awkward. Then Ryou asked Yugi to show him how to play with dueling monsters. The two shy teens were quickly giggling and chattering away happily. Ryou was glad to see that Yugi seemed much better and Yugi was glad to finally have at least one friend.

Everything was going smoothly until a knock sounded from the door. Ryou said that it could be one of his friends and he quickly joined Yugi at the door. It wasn't what he expected. A thick, gruff man leered down at them.

"Yugi, you little whore let me in," the man didn't wait for a reply. He simply pushed his way in. Yugi stood almost frozen as he watched the man enter his home. Ryou shut the door after the man, "Who the hell are you?"

"I'm Ryou Bakura and I..."

"Oh you're just a little slut like your friend. This must be my lucky night. It's a two for one deal." He smiled grabbing Ryou's arm.

"No, no stop!" Yugi, snapped out of this stupor, shrieked. He ran forward trying to free his new friend. "I wouldn't let you hurt her!"

It was of no use the two teens weren't any match for the man. The fight they put up only left them in a pool of blood.


When Jou finally woke up the next morning he didn't find a warm body next to him like he had the last few nights. Instead he found the murderous eyes of Bakura leering at him. The sliver haired teen seemed rather recovered from when he had passed out the night before.

"Where is Ryou-chan?" He growled threateningly.

Jou smiled brightly. He rubbed the back of his neck in a nervous gesture. "She's at Yug's!"

Bakura nodded. He turned away and was partly out of the room when he paused and turned around. "Who the hell is Yug'?"

"I 'ought ya knew!" Jou answered simply. He turned and pulled the covers over his head.

"Jou!" Bakura yelled. It was the blonde's only warning. He barely had a chance to make his escape. Bakura must have learned to fly because hadn't he just been outside the door? "You left Ryou with some- some- some...RAAA!" The two spent some time chasing each other around the room before Jou dashed to the door with Bakura on his heals. He ran down the hall into the front of the Inn.

Luckily, Honda and Otogi were in the front of the Inn when he stumbled in. Unluckily, Jou stopped in his excitement upon seeing them. Bakura had him pinned to the ground a nano second later. Jou was having the hell beat out of him and of course he was screaming as loudly as he could while trying to roll away from Bakura's grip. "No, no stay away from me!"

"You idiot mutt! You have no idea where Ryou is! She could be dead because of you!" Bakura growled back making quick work of Jou's face.

"Bakura!" Honda finally with Otogi's help pried him off of their puppy. Jou scrambled away as fast as he could. He turned to flee the room and smack into Seto.

"Seto!" He squawked burying his face against Seto's chest. The brunette put his arms around him protecting him.

"What the hell is going on?" Yami snapped. He as well as the rest of the boys had been aroused by all of the screaming. Curiosity had finally brought them out of their beds despite the massive group hangovers.

"He lost Ryou!" Bakura pointed an excusing finger at the shivering blond.

"Nuh-uh, Ryou's with Yug'," he croaked softly. He snuggled greedily against Seto gaining a sense of secured around his friends.

"Who is Yug'? You just sold her off as a little sex slave didn't you!" Bakura growled trying gain his freedom from Honda and Otogi's firm grips.

Marik giggled from where he stood supporting a sleepy Malik. "Yugi is a short thing that likes Yami and his bum!"

Yami stared at Marik curiously before trying to see what was so special about his bum. Bakura relaxed a little as Marik reassured him. "You mean she's alright?"

Marik nodded cheerfully, "The most Ryou could be suffering from is over exposure to cuteness!" Bakure gave a sour look and Marik add, "A he's-my-little-brother-cute baka."

"Can I 'top hidin' now?" Jou whimpered.

"We'll see," Bakura growled stomping out of the Inn.


It was a long while until Yami, Jou, Bakura, and Marik were heading to the game shop. The other boys were visiting the girls of the town. No one in the town knew what the Prince looked like so somehow Malik had been convinced to do it, although, the blond didn't seem to mind.

Jou was a little surprised that the shop seemed to be closed as he led the way around the shop to the house in the back.

"So, how are you and Malik?" Bakura made small talk as the puppy was weary at his patience for some reason he wasn't sure of.

"He's wonderful. You don't understand Bakura, being in love is just. It just is. I don't know how to explain it. It's just that every time I'm with him or around him it's like uhhh and when I'm not I feel like ugh," Marik chirped.

"You're right I don't understand that," Bakura growled angrily. He shoved his hands into his pockets. "What's taking so long, Mutt?"

Jou frowned at Bakura's unusual harshness attitude. "Sorry, 'Kura-kun. They're not opening the door." Bakura rolled his eyes and pushed the door open stepping in.

Marik skipped in front of Bakura moving right into the living room, "Marik wait is smells like..."

Yami and Bakura flinched at the scream that followed. Jou just looked horrified. "Don't hurt me!" He begged the silver haired teen.

Bakura frowned and huffed passed him, Yami flanked him. Marik was already knelt in the large puddle of blood beside Ryou's still body, "Ryou? Ryou, please wake up. You have to tell me that you're alright. This can't happen please, Ryou! Bakura, please, please you have to help her!" Marik stared up at Bakura pleading as he pulled Ryou into his arms. "She's so cold, so, so, cold."

"W-wh-who are you?" A choked whisper turned the boy's attention. Yugi was crumpled to a heap on the ground scars and bruises covering his skin fresh blood still dripping from various wounds.

"Yug'!" Jou cried moving to his side, "What happened ta you and Ryou?"

Yugi struggled to sit up. He glanced over to Ryou and flinched in pain when Jou finally helped him up right. "I'm sorry. Really, really sorry. These men they use me while my Jii-chan is away. They rape me. I didn't know that Mr. Roman would be over last night! I wouldn't have let Ryou stay if I had known! It's just I miss my Jii-chan very much. He has been gone a long time, way too long. I don't know if he's coming back. I'm sorry."

Bakura and Yami exchanged a look that was interrupted by a muffled choke from Ryou and a squeal of joy from Marik. "Ryou honey are you alright?"

Ryou pressed against Marik rolling into him, "Please Marik-chan, I don't- want to be...seen this way."

Marik nodded understanding that Ryou was still too shy about revealing his secrets to everyone. He tried his best to hide Ryou from the other boys. It was his luck that Bakura was too worried and enraged to realize the significance of it all.

"Bakura calm down. Jou go get the boys tell them to hurry. Bakura please go find a physician," Yami stepped up since Bakura wasn't able to take charge. Jou nodded and was out of the door within seconds. Bakura grumbled but he did follow after him once he determined that it was for the best.

Yugi squirmed a little gesturing to the far wall. "There are rooms back there, Ryou, Sh-sh can lay down. I-I c-c-can help w-with the b-blood." The smallest teen worked his way to his feet.

Yami rushed to his side putting an arm around his feeble form. He smiled weakly, "You will lie down too, little one. Marik-chan and I will take care of the mess."

He blushed brightly; it was instinct that had him hiding the blush against Yami's shirt. The small boy let Yami help him into his bed in one of the back rooms without a complaint. Marik set Ryou on the bed next to Yugi.

Marik brushed Ryou's long silvery hair back, "Will you be alright resting here? Bakura will be here with help soon." Ryou nodded against the hand stroking his hair.

With an affirming nod, he followed Yami out into the main room. They carefully set about trying to get the dry blood out of the grain in the floor. It was not easy. However, when Jou returned the rest of their friends helped and by the time Bakura arrived with exactly five doctors the room was clean. This left the boys with only one thing to do. Wait.


Bakura glared at the back room door from his seat between Otogi and Malik and Marik the latter two were taking the time to become reacquainted. The silver haired teen growled at the activity next to him. He glanced around the room. Yami and Seto were whispering on the far side of it. Jou was with Honda keeping a close eye on Bakura and who looked extremely guilty. Deciding that something had to be done having and having nothing to do Bakura turned his frustration on Jou. With a loud roar and a yelp from Jou the two were crashing around the room. Honda side stepped as they flew by. Otogi ducked when they jumped over head. Even Seto and Yami got out of the way. To Jou it seemed as if he was entirely alone. No one would get between him and Bakura. He knew it was over when Bakura closed in on him. Finally, Bakura brought him down and began laying it thick into the puppy.

"Stop, stop Bakura stop," Jou wailed and thrashed. He covered his face to protect it from the many blows. Bakura didn't look like he was ready to stop. It was only when Marik decided to see if he could join in that Jou finally felt like he'd come out of this mostly unharmed.

In a ball of excited, Marik toppled Bakura off of Jou and rolled about until he pinned Bakura to the ground. Bakura struggled underneath him for longer than necessary before floppy back defeated. "Get off," he growled.

The blond giggled. He patted Bakura's cheek, "You need to behave." He pinched him teasingly. "She will be alright. She would have been fine without any doctors and you brought her five. It's really cute seeing how much you love her."

Bakura flaired up again and finally flipped Marik to his back. He opened his mouth to deny his feelings when Marik fondled him without abandon. Grunting Bakura pushed off of the other boy. He stalked away.

Marik made to follow him but he was cut off by his boyfriend, "Oh, Ra! Marik that was so hot!"

Grinning Marik tugged Malik by the arm, "The shop is empty." Giggling loudly the two teens disappeared into the shop.

Bakura growled and turned back to Jou. The blond had had the foresight to hide behind Yami and Seto. The tri-haired teen moved over to Bakura clapping his hands on his friend's shoulders with a weak grin. "It'll work out. Now about our bride search, how are you feeling about it?"

The silver haired young man shrugged Yami off and with a whole hearted glare he spat, "I don't like her! I don't like girls!" Not wanting to be prodded any further on the subject Bakura stormed out of the room.

"So, West Chester we go?" Honda broke the shocked silence.

Seto nodded, "Yes, that sounds like an excellent choice it's been a while since we stop in a city by the sea."

"How long will we stay here?" Otogi stood from his seat to join Seto and the remaining boys on that side of the room. "When Ryou isup to it?"

Seto glanced side long at Yami the tri haired teen nodded. "Then we need to be out there looking for bride's to bring home."

"I'll go," Jou whimpered softly behind him.

"We'll all go, Yami, Marik, and Malik can stay here until we get back," Seto agreed. Yami gave a dismissive wave and the four taller teens trooped out.


Ryou stirred from the induced sleep just a little before dark. He could hear lower murmuring from the other room, but he didn't have the strength to figure out what they were saying. He turned in the bed and knocked gently into Yugi. The smaller boy opened an eye and smiled weakly scooting back from the other.

He caught Yugi's wrist to stop him. The smaller frowned and looked away.

"Don't."

"I have to. You might have died! I feel so guilty it's my entire fault." Yugi's big childish eyes over flowed with tears. Ryou squeezed his wrist gently, reaching out to wipe his now wet cheeks. "Ry-Ryou, you-you're the first person that I thought of as a friend! I know it's silly you have to leave. I just ruined it all."

Tugging, Yugi into his arms, he squeezed him gently resting his cheek against the boy's soft thick hair. "Yugi you didn't ruin it. I am your friend. I had a bad feeling last night when you didn't show up. So I asked Jou to bring me here. You see, only someone who really thought of you as their friend would have come."

"I know, but when you did come you didn't know he would be there. You can't be friends with me after something like..." Yugi was cut off when Ryou put his hand over his lips. Ryou stared at Yugi for a full ten minutes before he dropped his hand, "Thank you," Yugi hushed.

Yugi snuggled against Ryou wrapping his arms around him as well. The young teen smirked. "Oh yea. How come when you had your dress off you had a boy pee-pee?"

Ryou gasped and blushed five shades of red, "Please, Yug' please don't say anything, only Marik knows. My parents always told me that I was a girl. I didn't know I wasn't until a few weeksz ago. So please, I'm not ready."

Not being able to deny his first friend something so important Yugi agreed with a silent nod. Ryou kissed his cheek gratefully.

Both boys jolted when the door crashed open. Marik came in wiggling his hips and swaying his body. He stopped at the edge of the bed when he reached it. Running his hands over his chest he tugged his shirt over his head, putting it between his legs and rubbing the obvious bulge with it. Ryou squeaked and buried his face against Yugi's chest but he glanced out in time for Marik to kick his pants at them. He smiled rolling his hips towards them his hand coming down to stroke his rather large penis.

Yugi's eyes widened into the size of saucers his grip on Ryou's tightened as he watched Marik balls raise closer to his body until he was coming in long squirts all over the boys. Ryou ducked once more against Yugi until it was all over, and all over them. Marik was giggling and crawling on the bed to snuggle them.

"How are you two innocents?" Marik kissed them both on the cheek. Ryou giggled and wrapped his arms around him. "Bakura dared me."

"I see, I bet you put up a fight. Everyone knows how shy you are when it comes to your penis." Ryou giggled nuzzling against the blond.

"Oi, Ryou you're making fun of me you naughty girl," Marik tickled his sides playfully, "You be careful or your ass is mine."

"Marik, I'm saving myself! Or...I was?" Ryou shifted looking a little disappointed. Yugi held him tighter from next to him.

Grinning Marik pressed his lips to Ryou ear but spoke tohim, but loud enoughso Yugi could hear, "I think Bakura would understand."

Yugi giggled and pushed up onto his elbows, "You have a crush on Bakura that is so kawaii!"

There was a collective squeal when Ryou nodded his blush brighter than before. Ryou frowned at the pair. "What does it matter when he doesn't like girls?"

"That is enough, Marik," Bakura's haughty voice carried from the door way. "Did you finish your dare? Honda just came back smelling like fish and it's your turn!"

"Hai, I'm finished. See how sticky they are," He sat up petting Ryou's long silky hair, "I have a dare for Yugi. Do you accept?"

Yugi nodded when Ryou gave him an improving nod. Marik leaned down and whispered to him so that only he and Ryou heard. Yugi blushed and then paled considerable.

Ryou giggled, "Kura-kun, will you help me out. I want to watch and I still hurt incredibly." The older teen smiled softly and moved to scoop Ryou into his arm. He carried him into the main room where various boys were smelly, wet, naked, make-uped, cross dressed, and well Ryou got the picture.

Bakura kicked a giggling Malik onto the floor settling Ryou on the couch and making him (Ryou) lean half against him. The other boys all gave each other knowing looks.

Marik skipped in with Yugi scooting in shyly behind him. Marik glared at Bakura and thwapped Otogi until he resigned to the floor. Malik crawled into Marik's lap waving cutely at Ryou.

Yugi stayed at the corner of the room trying to stay unseen, "Come on, Yugi it is your dare," Marik summoned.

The boy whipped their gazes around smiling at the nervous looking boy. Yugi took a small step towards Yami, the boy was already naked and had his legs swung over an armrest. He quirked a brow and sat up Yugi approached him.

Yugi dropped to his knees the moment he reached him bowing his head. "Sir, I wish to..." the end was so quiet it went unheard.

Smiling Yami reached down and cupped Yugi's chin. "Little one, please speak up or I can't grant you your wish." He wiped a bit of Marik's cum from Yugi's cheek and flicked it away.

Yugi blushed and tried again, "Iwishtosuckonyourpeepee," he rushed threw it in a low murmur.

Working on the cum crusting up in Yugi's hair, Yami frowned, saying, "Slow and clearly please."

"I wish to suck on your pee-pee," Yugi said after a deep breath and he kept his eyes closed.

Yami held back a chuckle exchanging a look with Marik before smiling down at Yugi, "That is very brave of you to ask me such a thing. But, my little friend is that something you're willing to give me at this time?"

Yugi shivered at Yami's condescending tone. He looked into Yami's lap his eyes widened at the somewhat hard penis resting there. He put his hands on top of Yami's thin legs nodding. "I-I want to. I've never wanted to so much before, but..."

"You're not ready," Yami nodded clearly understanding. "You have had your childhood squandered by horrible men. I can see how this is hard. I will accept your offer, however since you are not ready at this time you'll have to accompany me until you are ready."

Snapping his huge eyes up to Yami's he brought a hand to take Yami's in his own. "You want me to go with you? All of you?"

"Yes, Yugi, it is what I'd like. I have a feeling it is why Marik gave you this dare. I simply cannot separate you from Ryou. Seto agrees that is is unwise to leave you here. So yes all of us." Yami squeezed his little hand gently.

"I-I can't!" Yugi looked pained, torn, "Oh, I really want to. I don't belong here. But Jii-chan what if he returns. I have to watch the shop."

"Yugi, Jii-chan has been gone a very long time, so you said. He may never come back and even if he does do you want him coming back to find those men doing those terrible things to you. Your grandfather doesn't want to find you dead. Shh, hush Yugi, please don't cry," Yami tugged the sobbing boy into his arms. He probably shouldn't have mentioned both dead and grandfather in the same sentence. Rubbing circles into Yugi's back, Yami hushed the small one. Soon, Yugi was simply bleary eyed and hiccupping.

"That's enough," Bakura spoke. Ryou stirred to look up at him, "Yugi will come with us. We will leave one of the soliders here to keep the shop running until a time when Yugi's Jii-chan returns."

"I c-can't do that to you guys. That would be horribly rude," Yugi said between hiccups.

"They always need people to entertain the court. With your dueling and games you could please everyone. So you see you'll work for your stay and help your Jii-chan's business," Seto offered trying to ease the little boy's concerns. He was playing idly with the collar of his dress.

"Not that you have to work. You're with Yami," Marik said in a teasing tone.

"Well, I guess I can't say no," Yugi said softly wrapping his arms around Yami's neck and kissing his cheek.

"Great, but promise me that you will never refer to Yami's dick as a pee-pee again," Otogi looked disgusted. Yugi buried his face against Yami as the boys roared with laughter.
