Bottled Up Gods Chapter 11, a yu-gi-oh fanfic

Normally I never update like this, but I'm going to have to say this, Bottled Up Gods is almost finished, my story is going to most likely be a twelve/ thirteen chapter story, which is a first for me because I rarely finish a story and the ones that are done are either twenty chapters or one-shots.

Well, you are all aware that Yami is in a critical condition right now correct? Okay, good, but I just want to say, if I get my facts wrong on how Yami started throwing up blood, hey I don't want to be right, and besides, this is Ri-chan's story, not yours.

I hope you are ready for this chapter, its going to be a big one. And we are introducing a character that has only been mentioned before hand so be ready for him!

Okay, not much song inspiration here, though I am listening to First Love by Utanda Hikaru right now, so… yeah… XP

Warning: Not much… some cussing on Kaiba's part, same with Atemu's.

On with the fic!

Nebhepetre- "The Son of Ra"

Bottled Up Gods

Chapter Eleven: Things Are Bad Now…

In the grand metropolis known only as New York City, a man in his early forties sat at his large, mahogany disk, typing away at him laptop and talking on his Blue Tooth to some random person he had working under him in his office building.

This man was Atemu Nebhepetre, the current CEO of Kaiba Corp America and was a world-class lawyer. If he and Yami were to stand, side-by-side, they could almost pass off as twins. But they had their differences in looks.

Atemu was taller, almost as tall as Kaiba, with perfect tan skin and his hair was spikier then Yami and Yugi's. His eyes were a deep wine color with just the slightest hint of deep purple mixed in. He was built well, but not like a muscle head, more like a hot doctor who was shirtless on Grey's Anatomy.

He also had a more adult-like face then Yami, who looked like his mother a bit more in that area. He was a man with a good personality but could fly off the handle at times. He was a more adult version of Yami, and he just happened to be their biological father.

You see, he was dating the boys' mother for a about two years while he lived in Japan, but when he got a big business deal in America, he had to leave because it was his dream. Hikaru, Yami and Yugi's mother, understood but couldn't go with him since her career was in Japan.

They went their separate ways, but Atemu kept in touch after he found out that he was going to be a father. He was there for the births but he couldn't stay long. He would visit from time to time, but Hiro, Hikaru's current lover, had him stop coming.

Atemu wasn't informed about Hikaru's death until three months after the funeral and he found out he was too late to take custody of the boys.

All he could do was pay child support.

As Atemu finished his call, he sighed and swirled around in his chair before placing his feet on the desk. "Sure is boring here today… something better happen in the next ten seconds or I will be uber pissed off…"

His cell phone went off and he checked the caller ID.

Yugi.

Atemu blink as he looked at the phone. "Oh? What does Yug want? He never calls me…" He then answered the call, switching it to his Blue Tooth.

"Hello?"

"Dad?"

"Hey Yugi! It's been awhile, how's your brother? I haven't spoken to him in three years."

"…"

When Yugi didn't reply, Atemu's eyes turned slightly darker. "Yugi Mouto, what is going on? You better tell me what happened to Yami, when I don't hear a reply that means something it up."

"Dad… Yami's in the hospital… Hiro drugged him and raped him… he's in the ER right now and…" Yugi's voice sounded cracked, as if he had been crying before and new set of tears were now flowing from his eyes.

Hearing Yugi crying on the other end of the line caused Atemu's eyes to harden. He loved his kids very much and that bastard had done something to his sons. And he would never forgive anyone who could cause harm to the last bit of Hikaru he had left in this world.

"Yugi, tell me what hospital he is at."

"Domino Memorial, why?"

"Because I'm going to Japan tonight and I'm going to be kicking some ass and I needed to know which way I was kicking!" The CEO growled loudly. "I'll see you in a few hours, update me on anything that has happened you got that?!"

"Yes Dad."

"Alright, talk to you later."

He hung up his phone and left his office, informing his secretary that he was going on a trip and to have his baggage ready and his fastest jet prepared by the time he got to the airport.

Kaiba, Yusei, and Yugi sat in the hospital waiting room for six hours now. Two hours had been spent informing Yugi of everything the two others had known about Yami and what has happening to him.

Half an hour was spent calming Yugi down.

Five minutes was spent with Yugi telling his father of what had happened.

And the next few hours were spent waiting in silence.

That is, until a very loud, and demanding voice heard through probably the whole first floor of the hospital.

"Where the fuck is Yami Mouto?!" Yugi got up and ran to the receptionist desk, only to see Atemu glaring deeply at the poor woman behind it.

"Dad…?"

Atemu jolted and turned to see Yugi looking at him, this caused the man's eyes to soften. "Yugi…" He walked up to him and hugged him. "What happened? You have to tell me what happened to Yami? What did Hiro do?"

"That bastard has been tormenting and raping your son for three years, and just yesterday he had injected an extremely powerful drug into Yami's blood stream, causing his brain to go haywire. We knocked Yami out to control his wild actions and when he woke up, he was throwing up blood and was hyperventilating. He's been in the ER for six hours Atemu."

Both men turned to see Kaiba with his arms crossed over his chest. Atemu looked at him before shaking Kaiba's hand. "Nice to see you again Seto, so you helped my son? Is there any reason behind that?"

"Nice to see you again as well Atemu, and yes, there is. Your son and I are dating and frankly I want Hiro dead, just as much as you do. I saw the anger in your eyes; you want him to suffer dearly for what he has done."

Yugi looked at the two of them; he had almost forgotten that his father was in charge of Kaiba Corp in the US. As Yugi watched them talk, Yusei came over to them with a face that showed neither happiness nor sadness.

"Guys, the doctor needs to speak to us about Yami."

"What are you to Mr. Mouto?"

"Brother."

"Father."

"Friend."

"Lover."

Dr. Shire nodded as he looked at the four men who were sitting in front of him in the waiting room. He sighed, removing his glasses before he spoke. "Alright, we checked Mr. Mouto's blood first. He had high blood sugar, and his heart was going much faster then it should be, almost as if it was going to burst at any moment. We brought that down thankfully."

The old man looked at his clip board to read over what else they had check on Yami and repaired.

"It seems that his left wrist if broken right now, most likely from falling on it over and over. It seems that he had been raped many times, making the skin upper sensitive and scared. His back and chest were coved in fresh wounds, caused by what could be rope. His blood pressure was through the roof, and it seems that there was an extremely powerful drug in his system, we are flushing it and the infection out with fresh blood which is also reviving what he had lost…"

"Wait a minute." Atemu spoke, holding up hand, stopping Dr. Shire. "You're telling me that my son has been raped?"

"Yes, over a period of years it seems."

Sighing and grinding his teeth to vent out his anger, he looked at the older man. "And he was drugged?"

"Yes."

"And what is this infection in him that you mentioned?" Atemu asked calmly to collect himself. Kaiba, Yugi, and Yusei looked at him. Yami had an infection in him?

Dr. Shire sighed again and looked at the four. "Yes, due to the open wounds he had, a bacterium infected his blood, but it seems the more open the wound, the worse the infection becomes. He must have been placed somewhere that was dark, moist, and wood-like for this kind of bacteria to thrive and get inside his fresh wounds. This explains what he threw up blood; his body was trying to fight infection by trying to dispose of the ruined blood."

Yusei racked his brain, thinking of an explanation for how Yami could have gotten this infection. And it hit him like a ton of bricks.

"I don't like the closet… it smells musky like wet wood and it's always damp… I don't like it… the cold and warm feelings in there are horrid…"

"The closet! Hiro would place Yami in a cramp closet whenever he had finished hurting Yami or if he thought Yami did something bad! I think Yami told me that a pipe was leaking behind the walls in there!"

Kaiba looked at him, so that must have been it. Yugi was shocked at hearing this and Atemu was getting madder. "Fuck!" He exclaimed and stood up. "Where is Yami right now?!"

Dr. Shire looked at him. "Room 309, be quiet though, he is sleeping off the drug right now and we are cleaning his blood so be careful."

The group of four went to where Yami's room was and opened the door. Yugi gasped as tears came to his eyes, Yusei and Atemu were stunned and Kaiba felt his heart sink at the sight before them.

Yami was lying in a large hospital bed with many machines surrounding him. His left arm was bandaged up, his forehead and left cheek had bandages on them as well. His eyes were sunken in, making the rings under his eyes darker and wider spread. His skin was a sickly pale and he had a sheen of sweat on it. His right arm had a few IVs attached to it and a heart monitor was attached to his finger.

He was breathing slowly and he was barely moving, the only sign of life from him was his chest moving and the beeping of the machine for his heart.

"Oh my God…" Kaiba moved over to Yami and took his small hand into his larger one, his hand felt cold to him. "Yami… I'm so sorry…" He took his lovers tiny hand and kissed the knuckles, trying so hard not to cry but he was failing at that.

Atemu and Yugi were about to move into the room but Yusei stopped them. "Sir… Yugi… this is between them, you two maybe his family, but those two share something deeper then blood."

"Yami… love… I promise that once you get out of this place, I'll take you to the mansion and have you live with me… I don't want you in pain anymore… I just want you to smile for me like you did at the park… or when we were kids when you dueled me… just please… don't die on me Yami, if you die… I'll die…"

The others could only watch as Kaiba spilt his heart out for his sick lover who was patting his cheek.

He couldn't see anything due to his eyes being closed, everything hurt and he felt like a thousand pound weight was placed on each of his eyelids.

He could hear the sounds of beeping and machines, causing the headache he had to become worse. He then heard another sound, only this one was human.

He felt something grab his hand and something soft touch his knuckles, the voice was clear now and it sounded like Kaiba. "Yami… I'm so sorry…"

Yami then heard Yusei speaking but he couldn't make that out.

Kaiba then spoke again and it sounded like he was crying, but Kaiba never cried. But what he heard coming from Kaiba caused his heart to tighten in his chest and it made him want to cry.

As he heard Kaiba speak, he lifted his hand and lightly patted the man's cheek, trying to wipe away the tears that were falling. He didn't want those lovely eyes producing tears like this; he didn't want Kaiba to be sad.

"Seto…" He spoke in a raspy voice, just barely above a whisper. He felt Kaiba's head leave his hand and the burnet's hands encircling his.

"Yami? Are you awake? Please stay with me love…"

Yami moaned softly, he was so tired, so very tired. "Sleepy now Seto… love you…" He couldn't finish his statement, he was out again and his hand became limp.

TBC

I told you he wasn't dead.

Atemu is a lot like Kaiba, so he was easy to write for. Kaiba's little thing near the end seemed really sweet to me, and we know that he will do everything to make sure that Yami is safe. I think I'll have Yami have a bad withdrawal from the drug, since its super strong.

I said that Yugi and Kaiba would come up with a plan to get at Hiro, but I'm saving that for the next chapter.

Next chapter: Kaiba, Atemu, Yami, Yugi, and Yusei are going to sue Hiro, but the bastard as plans ready. This might be the last chapter or so, but it might not be so be prepared.

Please review.
