Something fun and random! ^^

Yugi: Tea... Could you read me the story about that bunny?

Tea: I'm going to pretend that's the concussion talking and forget all about it...

Reviews: And Thought I'd just change it around. ^^ Don't like to always be the same.

Mr. Mezel: Aw, thank you! ^^ That means a lot, and that's okay if you feel shy; everyone's different. But, at least you reviewed on this at least! Yay! And sorry, never heard of it, lol. And... Sorry, in my story, this one to be exact, Yami, AKA Atem, is having a normal life. You can't expect him to be single for the rest of his life, do you? He has a new chance at life, and needs to date someone. (I don't like yoai either, and I think I spell it differently every time...) And why I chose him dating Lyla, is because she's going to be a very important character in the story. I can't say anything else because I don't want to spoil anything, but yeah. I'm sorry, truly, but Lyla is important, and I can't just have Atem be single for the rest of his life. But, besides all of that, I had someone request that Atem start dating someone. They didn't say who, but they wanted him to be. :/ But I appreciate you saying something about it! I really do!

And as for why it's taking so long, well... I just needed a week off, to recollect my thoughts. XD

Couldn'tThinkOfaName: I been inside an airport, but only to wait for my siblings... otherwise, I don't know what they're like. I've never even rode in a airplane before. ;/ And don't worry; you're reviewing now. Hehe. I will go fix those errors, that is if I can find them. XD

Lisa: Which she probably won't. She'll need my expert-ts!

Pssh, on what? Never mind... And Don't worry, I will. To be honest, I was going to do that, but it would be kind of hard. Atem being in the Mortal realm and Mana in the Afterlife. I couldn't just have God of Ra give her her own body. It wouldn't be right, you know? But, they still like each other!

Lisa: Which, don't worry, she'll add a chapter on that subject. Or else!

Else what? Try hurting me, and then no one will ever know! Answering your questions, no! You do not have to pay! It's as free as free can get! XD Um.. you really decide on what info you want to give. Like, they'll ask you for a pen name, which you already have one (and I still love. So happy you won't be changing it!) Um... your e-mail and a password... That's pretty much it.. You only add info if you want to. (If I remember correctly but I'm pretty sure I am) It's rather simple and easy.! ^^

Bakura...

Lisa: Hehehehe. We'll never tell!

That, is very true! Just have to keep reading!

Kissara: Uh.. -coughs-

Lisa: About that... .

To be honest, I am having Yugi keep the money, for like college, but I will also have him donate stuff. And also, during the time Atem was in the Afterlife, I had Yugi like participate in duels. Though, I never mentioned it... I feel stupid... I'll try to mention it! Sorry bout that! But yeah, I'll explain that when I get the chance!

Lisa: Chokichi will never find that out! Ever, you got that!

Hey! Be nice! And hm... I do not know if he will...

Lisa: Also, Atem ain't pretending! It's the real deal!

Be nice! Don't yell at my readers! But yeah, he will definitely get what he deserves! XD Thanks for reading!

AnzuFan: XD! Yay! I'm glad! And Atem with and OC, yeah, I haven't seen much of those myself... So yup! ^6^ All I can say is you will find out everything! The reactions and what not. And sorry if this came a little late. I have been trying to think of some really fun/good scenes.

fangirl: :D Yay! And this chapter shouldn't be that bad either. So bare with me, XD I'm glad you like it!

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! Just like how I say it every time!

Chapter Eleven:

Beep Beep Beep Beep

Groggily, Yugi opened his eyes and looked around to try and find that annoying alarm clock of his. It took him a minute, even though it was in the same place as always, but he just felt so tired, he was having trouble trying to locate it. As he lifted his arm from under his warm covers to turn the damn thing off, pain came out of nowhere and made itself known in his chest.

"Nn," he mumbled, not liking the feeling at all. It hurt to move his arm anywhere and it even hurt to breathe. 'I guess I really did fracture my rib.' He thought, turning the alarm off as fast as he could so he didn't have to listen to it anymore.

He stayed laying down on his bed and took a small breath through his nose and tried not to wince. Of course that didn't help much since the pain was the same.

He stared up at the ceiling for a few minutes, debating if he should go to school today or stay home. True, he needed to find out if he had passed the Math test from yesterday so that he wouldn't fail for this six weeks, but, he could always do it tomorrow.

'But, if I stay home, then he might show up and bad stuff might happen...' Yugi thought, his mind switching to the encounter with his father last night. He was the only one at home at the time, and his father had trapped him. If he'd stay home from school today, there would be a ninety percent chance he would show up again. Though, Grandpa would have to leave the shop... do more like a sixty percent chance he would come.

His side started to hurt a little. 'I think I would rather go to school, just in case.' He thought and as slowly as his body would allow him, swung his legs over the side of the bed to the floor. He sat up and did an intake of oxygen to try to calm the pain. 'It's been so long since I broke or cracked a rib, my brain is resulting the pain to hurt more,'

Yugi groaned inward as he remembered always being beaten up by bullies. He would always be black and blue with some broken bones, but it happened so often, the pain didn't hurt as much as it was supposed to. Now, it felt normal. Yay...

Getting to his feet wasn't so bad since he was just standing still. He rubbed his eyes, ignored the sting, and let out a small yawn. Time to get ready for the day since he was already out of bed. He slowly walked over to his closet and brought out his school uniform and other things he would need and made his way over to the door. As he was walking there, he noticed that his door was opened a crack and then realized who was missing.

"Guess Iggi got hungry and let himself out," he mumbled. "And I guess Atem forgot to close my door all the way when he brought me up here." Last night, Yugi didn't feel like getting up off the couch to go upstairs for bed. He told everyone that he was just going to sleep downstairs when Atem had scooped him up into his arms and carried him up to his room.

"Let me go!" He had whined, feeling lazy.

Atem rolled his eyes, "I will when you're up in your room." He said. "But, you're not sleeping on that couch. You have school tomorrow."

"So?" Yugi pouted, very much acting like a little kid. His brother started to walk up the stairs. "I've slept downstairs before, 'specially on a school night."

"Oh well." When Atem had set Yugi on his bed, he started to walk out and called over his shoulder, "I only did it because I couldn't when I was still locked inside the Millennium Puzzle." Meaning, a few times, Yugi had got hurt and Atem/ Yami couldn't do anything about it.

Yugi nodded, quiet, and watched his other half close his door and said a goodnight.

He shook his head, coming back from his memories and grabbed the handle of the door. Just as he was opening it, he heard a loud Ku-thump coming from the stairs. Then a loud, "Ow."

Curious, Yugi walked over to the stairs and hopped down three of them and raised an eyebrow. Atem was in a heap at the bottom of the steps, looking annoyed.

The older one looked to the stairs, trying to find out what caused his to trip. When he caught the sight of black, brown, and white, he groaned and said, "Yugi, don't sleep on the stairs!"

"But I didn't." Said name argued back, still at the top of the steps.

Atem blinked, then looked up to where his Light was standing with his clothes in his hands and a confused look on his face. He then looked back to the multi-colored dog on the stairs, now just raising it's head from all of the commotion.

Iggi yawned and stretched it's paws before looking sleepily to Atem. He bark and got to his paws.

"Oh, I am going to kill you," The ancient pharaoh sworn, looking the pup straight in the eyes. The dog's eyes widen as he understood what the human said, and twirled on the stairs, running up it.

"Sorry, aibou," Atem apologized, and got to his feet. "Two innocent, great minds think alike." He said, and muttered something about 'Why sleep in the middle of the stairs? Second time that has happened!'

Yugi couldn't help but smile and looked down to where his dog was hiding behind his leg. Even though the beagle was more than ten months old, yes that old, he was getting too big to continue hiding behind his leg. "Oh Iggi," he chuckled and knelt down to scratch his ear, "You're too big to sleep on the stairs now."

"Arf!"

"Yeah yeah, just don't do it again, I don't know what Atem is planning for you," he said in a half serious, half playful tone. He stood back up and with his dog following behind him, went to the bathroom to take a shower.

"Guard the door, bud," Yugi smiled as Iggi sat down by the door and looked up at his with those blue eyes. He received a bark so he closed the door with a soft click. When he turned around, he turned the light on and set his clothes down on the counter.

He only stripped his shirt off and had to stop himself from gasping when his gaze went to the mirror. The left side of his chest, right where his ribs were, was a good shape of purple. He felt a sudden urge to poke the different color, but decided against it, since it would be painful. His gaze went down and noticed that his stomach wasn't looking much better. His old bruise was yellow and was slowly disappearing, but there was a new bruise there. It was also purple but with some blue added to it. In all, it was about the size of a coconut, if you had to compare it to something.

"Great, just great," Yugi grumbled at the sight. He opened the mirror window to the medicine cabinet and scanned all of the medicine until he found the small bottle of Advil. He opened it and took two pills dry before proceeding in taking his shower.

XxxxX

"You know, it's strange," Atem commented as he and Yugi were walking to school; everything at home being done.

"What's strange?" Yugi asked and looked over to him. He held onto the straps of his bag, just to do something with his hands.

"Well, I haven't seen mom since the day before yesterday. I know she comes home late and everything, but we would at least see her in the mornings or something."

Yugi felt a bead of sweat trickle down the back of his neck. "Oh, uh, yeah. That is weird." He quickly looked away. His thoughts started to go into motion as he the conversation he had with his father yesterday popped up. 'Could it be because dad visited her yesterday? Did he do something to her?' He started to panic silently. 'What did he do to make mom agree to go with him?'

All the while, he forgot about his brother and his surroundings. It wasn't until he felt a gentle, yet firm slap on his head that he blinked and flinched away.

"Yo, Yuge, whatcha thinking about?" Joey asked, with a cocky grin. Of course, leave it to Joey to bring someone back to reality.

Yugi faked a smile and shrugged. "Just some stuff. Nothing interesting though," he lied and realized that everyone had gathered, minus Tristan. "Hey, where's Tristan?"

Tea took his hand and said, "He's probably just running late. Should we wait for him?"

Joey shook his head. "Nah, he told me that he had to do something this morning and that he would find his own way to school." He shrugged before he walked over to Atem and slung his arm around his shoulders. "I guess it's just you and me today, bud."

Atem rolled his eyes and pushed him away. "What about Yugi and Tea?"

"Aw, they have each other, we don't need them." He waved his hand at them like he was waving them off and slung his arm around Atem again, ignoring the protest grumbling from the him.

"Gee, thanks," Tea muttered. "We feel so appreshiated."

Yugi squeezed her hand and smiled.

For the rest of the morning, the gang went through their activities. They were together during their homeroom class, which they just sat around and talked. Tristan had shown up a little late because he had to take care of his sick little sister until his mom came back home to take care of her. When class had ended, they went off to P.E. And luckily for them, they all had the same class together.

"Alright, everyone has been signed a partner and will be counted off in pairs!" Coach Prison said. He was a beefy man and was from America. He would always talk about it and said that he was involved in a sport called American Football, that's why he was so big and strong. He blew his whistle and directed all of the students to the different areas of the gym's playing field.

It all had sucked. Atem was paired up with Joey, Tristan with Ryou, and Tea was partnered off with a girl named Suzie. Poor Yugi was paired up with with a guy named Toby. The kid was nice and all, but the suck-y part was that all of his friends were in the same area while he was on the opposite side.

Tea and Suzie and half of the girls were off playing volleyball in the volleyball pits while half of the guys were lifting weights outside. The other half of the guys and girls were running track. Yugi, just so happened to be running... though at this moment, he was talking to the coach.

"You don't understand, I can't run," He told the older man. His partner, Toby was right next to him, chilling and looked happy because he didn't have to run just yet.

Coach Prison looked down at Yugi and through his sunglasses, his brown eyes started to scan the teen for any leg injuries. When he didn't find anything, he barked out like a military captain, "Your legs don't look broken, Mutou. If I were you, I would suggest getting my butt out on that track and start running!"

Yugi bit his tongue in annoyance. Man, this coach never listened. "I didn't say my legs were the problem." Even though annoyed, he kept his calm and acted like his normal, sweet innocent self.

"Then what is it?"

"I uh... cracked my rib yesterday and it's hurts to even walk..." he mumbled, feeling sightly embarrassed by having to sound so weak.

Toby looked over to his partner with a look of sympathy but stayed quiet.

The coach, however, didn't hold any emotion, "I don't see a doctors note and you clearly ain't in pain." He crossed his arms against his chest.

"Just because I'm not showing it, doesn't mean I am not in it. And I never got any time to visit a doctor." And I'm not going to because all they would say is put some ice on it, do not wrap my chest in anything because it would make breathing hard, and take some Advil. No point in going.

"Well, too damn bad, Mutou." He grunted and looked back to survey the track. "I know you're trying to make up an excuse to get out of running. And you really suck at it."

"But I'm not making up an ex-,"

"I don't care; get out there and start running or I'll make you run extra." Then he looked back over and added, "And your partner."

Toby slightly paled. Everyone knew how much he hated running, even though he was good at it. He looked at Yugi and gently guided him away from the mean coach. "Sorry, Yugi. But, I rather not have to run any extra laps," and he truly looked sorry.

Yugi waved the apology off, "Don't worry, I understand. But, I seriously can't run." On the inside, he felt like he wanted to scream. Kind of. He hated when the coach never listened to him, especially that coach. He never held a grudge hate him... just got annoyed with him. The only time they believe him was when he got hurt again and/or he showed the coach the bruise, which was never often. But, this time, he couldn't show the bruise on his ribs because then he would have to show the other bruise on his stomach. Which he wasn't going to do.

Not a heartbeat later, Yugi felt something different brush the insides of his mind. It felt like someone was concern.

Replying back, Yugi sent back an 'I'm okay,' to Atem who had felt his feelings about being mad at the coach.

"So, how exactly did you bruise your ribs?" Toby asked as they slowly started to walk on to the track and away from the coach.

Yugi shrugged, "I uh... fell down the stairs." His partner's eyes doubled. "Yeah, I can be a klutz at times..." Though that was very true. He tried to breath through his nose like normal. But it wasn't really working for him. His side had been hurting all morning, and now it felt worse, like it was on fire. Probably because he was in gym. "I run in to a lot of things especially poles, so falling down the stairs really isn't a surprise for me..."

Luckily, the King of Games was getting a bit better at lying so Toby couldn't tell. He nodded his head and looked ahead of himself, watching as their classmates ran past them, sweating up a storm. "Are you taking anything for the bruise... thing?" He asked, just to be nice.

"Yeah... all I can take is Advil... If I went to the doctors, they would prescribe something stronger, but I rather not. It'll heal with given amount of time."

They hadn't even been walking for very long when they heard the coach yell at them to start running. Toby and Yugi both looked back and bit their cheeks.

"I just wish he would listen..." Yugi mumbled under his breath.

They looked back forward and ignored the yelling man. But, just as they turned back, they heard a squeal coming from one of the girls. Though, this was common. Probably a guy chasing a girl. But, what they didn't know, was that as the couple were chasing each other, they were running straight towards the walking companions.

"Excuse me!" The girl giggled as she ran past Yugi.

He watched her and then the hair on the back of his neck rose as he felt the chaser running right next to him. It felt like it all happened in slow motion. Yugi barely turned his head towards the male, and right as he did, the male had bumped into Yugi.

"Sorry!" He called over his shoulder and continued to chase the girl.

Yugi, on the other hand, felt his side explode in pain. Of course someone had to bump into his wounded side... Of course. He let out a squeak of pain and felt his legs wobble underneath him.

"Yugi?" Toby's voice suddenly sounded rather close and full of concern, "Are you alright?"

"Y-yeah..." was his reply. "Just hurts... a lot..."

"Okay. Let's uh... walk over to the coach now. Maybe he'll send you to the nurse." Toby saw a small nod from his partner and saw his face twisted in pain. Not knowing what else to do, he got on the left side of Yugi and took his arm and slung it around his neck. "I doubt you can walk on your own..." And he held on to the arm as they turned around and started to walk back to the coach.

XxxxX

"Why couldn't I be on the other half?" Ryou sighed, "I hate lifting weights; I'm not good at it." He was lying down on bench as he got ready to take the bar into his hands and start lifting it.

Standing behind the bench and watching him, was Tristan. He rolled his eyes, "You're going to have to do it at some time, you know,"

"Yes, I know... but I rather be running than lifting... weights," he lifted the ten pound weight up over his chest with ease and slowly brought it back down to his chest. "And, why did they pick today of all days to bring the weights outside?"

"Dude, you are just like Yugi," Joey commented with a chuckle as he was on the bench next to his silver haired friend, lifting a much heavier bar. "He complains a lot too, 'specially... when we're... in gym."

Ryou looked over to the blond as he rested the bar a inch over his chest and stuck his tongue out. "Not my fault. We both are more of book worms!"

"Heh, no kidding," Tristan shook his head. His partner turned his head back and did the same to Tristan as he did to Joey.

Atem just rolled his eyes at them. He was watching Joey continue to lift his bar with ease as though it was one of the lightest things in the world, even though the bar weighed a little more than fifty pounds. He was staying quiet, just not really in the mood to talk, for some odd reason. But, as he stayed quiet, enjoying his friends talking, he felt a small bundle of anger brush up against him, like it was in the inside of him. He immediately knew who it was and looked up and across the field. His brother was talking to the coach, and it looked like he was losing on whatever he was wanting.

He sent a 'Are you okay?' vibe to him and in a few seconds felt another emotion. This one was calm and slightly annoyed. Then, a moment or two later, he watched as Yugi and his partner walked away from the coach, more annoyed than ever. They slowly started to just walk the track.

Turning back to his friends, he noticed that Ryou had given up after benching seven and switched positions with his partner. Instead of only lifting a ten pound-er, Tristan switched it to having twenty-five on both sides. When he started to lift, Joey was getting done benching almost forty-five.

"Does any one know what the cafeteria is serving today?" Joey randomly asked as Atem helped him put the bar back on it's holder before sitting up, sweat staining the front of his shirt from the heat.

"Your head is always wrapped around your stomach," Ryou shook his head but smiled. "I think it's just sandwiches today."

"What do you expect?" Joey rolled his eyes and switched places when his partner. "Food is my main priority!" Then he smiled real big.

Atem switched the weight to forty pounds, taking the five pounds off of each side before laying down and gripped the bar. "Of course it is." He smiled and, with the help of his blond friend, lifted the bar up and slowly brought it down.

Tristan titled his head towards Joey. "I heard that tomorrow they are making enchilada's!" He had that look upon his face that he couldn't wait.

"Aw, hell yeah!"

About halfway to his fifth lifting, Atem felt something start stinging in his left side. "Err," he was on his way down when the bar was about to slip from his grasp and would have landed on top of his chest, if Joey hadn't been paying attention.

"Whoa, there," the blond caught the weight and together, the two brought it back up to it's holder. Tristan paused and looked over to see what was going on. "What's up?"

"I don't know," Atem frowned and sat up, his hand brushing his side. "Felt this random pain in my side."

"Maybe you were lifting too much?" Ryou said. He helped his partner put the weight back in it's holder, taking a minute for a pause.

He shook his head. "It wasn't that. Something more like...-,"

"Hey, what's up with Yuge?" Joey suddenly said out of the blue.

Three heads turn to the blond as Tristan raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

Joey pointed to where Yugi was walking back over to the coach, leaning on his partner like he was injured. The three heads turned and saw what the food-hungry guy was talking about.

"Is he okay?" Ryou wondered out loud.

That's when it hit Atem. "It must be his rib," He said, forgetting that his friends didn't know anything about it.

"What's wrong with his rib?" Tristan asked, now frowning. His thoughts lead him to a certain bully that rhymed with Annie, but was a guy. He sat up.

The older brother shook his head, "Not what you're thinking. He just fell down the stairs yesterday evening. I found his on the couch, passed out when I came home."

Joey narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure he fell?" Like Tristan, his thoughts lead him elsewhere. He loved his best friend to death, but Yugi had been lying a lot the past month, and he just wanted to make sure it wasn't someone messing with him again.

"I think so." Atem nodded like he was trying to reassure himself. "I couldn't tell if he was lying or telling the truth, so I just took it for the truth."

"Maybe he closed the link off?" Ryou suggested.

"Can you do that?" Atem asked. Instead of having the mind link, where he knew he could close it, the emotion connection, he was still trying to get used to. He never tried to close it off, just in case, so he never really thought about it.

"It worked for the mind connection, right? It probably can do the same for this one. I wouldn't really know since Bakura and I don't have any kind of links."

They continued to watch their smaller friend walk back over to the coach and then start talking with him.

After pondering the idea, Atem shook his head, "No, I think Yugi is telling the truth. He can be a klutz at times. I was thinking it was Iggi who caused him to fall down." When he got many weird stares from his friends, he quickly explained, "I fell down the remaining steps this morning because Iggi thought the stairs was a nice place to take a nap. I think Iggi was just tired after you three played with him so he was resting on the steps."

Two of the three smirked as they both pictured the pharaoh falling down the stairs. The other, more mature one nodded. "Does seem likely."

They thought about it for a few minutes longer, saying that Yugi was indeed clumsy and it could have been Iggi's fault, but they didn't get very far when the other coach barked at them to get back to their activities.

XxxxX

Coach Prison, after several arguments, finally allowed Yugi to go to the nurse for the remainder of the class, which so happened to be another hour. After gathering his clothes and stuff from his lockers, he and Toby walked over to the Nurse's office. Yugi was able to walk again so Toby let him go, but stayed close to him in case.

"Oh, Mr. Mutou, how are you?" The Nurse, Jenni, greeted the two when they walked in. The woman was about in her mid twenties and was beautiful. She had warm brown eyes to match her dark brown hair with a few strands of Mocha colored highlights. She was tall and slender and was wearing jeans and a nurse type shirt that was a light blue. Her hair was pulled up into a pony tail as it always was during school.

Yugi nodded in greetings and said, "I'm doing good, though my side is killing me." He answered. With a quick scan around the small office, he noticed a student sitting on one of the chairs with a bucket in his hands. His face looked a little green around the edges and he had rosy cheeks.

Toby looked to Yugi then to the nurse before muttering 'Gotta go back to class,' and left.

The nurse, Jenni, frowned. "Don't tell me you were bullied again." She crossed her arms across her chest in concern.

Yugi softly smiled, "No, those days are long behind me. I kind of fell down the stairs last night and think I may have cracked a rib. And, I was just wondering if I could lie down for the remaining of class." Way, way back when Yugi was always beaten to a pulp, only a few teachers would help him and send him to the nurse. The nurse would treat his wounds and would then tell the principle. It was always such a big mess that Yugi didn't feel like always having to go through this kind of procedure, since it was everyday, so he found a way of leaving the nurse alone. That, and it was a bit embarrassing. He hadn't been in this office since his freshman year, and was surprised that she still remembered.

Jenni smiled in relief and nodded her head. She lead the teen over to a small room in the office which held two beds. The lights were off to hold a more relaxing feeling and it held two beds, which were both empty. A bed-side table was in between the two beds and on it held a phone in case you wanted to call someone to pick you up.

"Well, stay here as long as you'd like," Jenni advised, "And, I would give you something for the pain, but you have to be prescribed to it. It's against the rules to hand students medication without a doctors note or parents,"

"That's, alright, I brought my own," Yugi said, and sat down on one of the beds.

Jenni raised an eyebrow. Usually, you're not supposed to tell that to the staff of the school because they had to take it up, District's order, but she let it slide. "All right. You have about an hour till the next bell rings, and if you go to sleep, I'll wake you up." Yugi mumbled his thank you and she left him alone.

After taking a quick trip to the bathroom to change out of his gym clothes and into his uniform, he laid down on the bed and couldn't help but think about his father. 'How am I going to get over this one? He looked like he was determined to make me and mom leave with him. If I don't tell anyone, then I'll really move. If I tell someone, then they would get hurt, and I can't afford that... What do I do?'

Over the next thirty minutes, he had closed his eyes, looking like he was asleep, when really he was just thinking of a solution. He kept thinking of a weak point in what his father had said, but he could never find it.

"And do you know how I'm going to get you to come back with me without needing to force you? I'll kill one of your friends." Chokichi had said. Then he had listed his friends names; Tea, Joey, Ryou, Tristan, and his brother, Atem.

'Wait...' Yugi's eyes widen a bit as he slowly sat up, careful not to aggravate his side to much. 'He only listed those friends... But, he never did say my other friends. Maybe I could tell Kaiba and then he could tell...' The gears in his mind were turning faster and faster as a plan started to form.

But, as quickly as that plan had formed, it quickly broke and left him with nothing. 'No... my father said if I had told anyone, then my friends would get hurt. It doesn't matter who I tell, my friends would get hurt. But... maybe, I could still try...' And once again, the plan came back.

Just as he finished his plan, Jenni came into the room and noticed him awake and sitting up. "Oh, good. Yugi, the bell will be ringing in about three minutes. Do you need me to write a pass for your next class so you don't have to rush to get there?"

Yugi shook his head and swung his legs over to the side of the bed. "No need. I have lunch next. But, thank you though." The nurse nodded and walked back out of the room.

He quickly gathered his bag with his gym clothes in it, and slung it over his shoulder. Then, taking his time, walked out of the Nurse's office, making sure he thank Jenni for letting him stay here.

"Hey, why did you go to the nurse's office?" Tea asked just as Yugi sat down on the grass beside her. Everyone was already there with their lunches, and had already begun eating. He wasn't very hungry, so he just sat there, talking with them.

"Uh... a incident that happened l-last night." Yugi slightly stuttered, lying for the millionth time today. When his girlfriend looked at him with a raised eyebrow, and he didn't notice that the rest of his friends and brother look at him the same way, he explained, even though he just wanted to stop at that, "Uh... I fell down the stairs and most likely cracked my rib I just wanted to go to the nurse to lay down. No biggy."

"Uh, yes that's big," Tea disagreed with a frown. "Have you told your parents or visited the doctor?"

He rolled his eyes and took a sip out of his water bottle that he always had with him, "What could they do besides tell me to get lots of rest, don't wrap my chest because it'll cause breathing to be hard, and take medicine? I think I'll just take my chances and just take some over the counter medicine." He looked down at the grass instead of the worried eyes of his girlfriend.

"Uh... I guess this has happened to you a lot?" Joey asked, breaking the silence that settled over them. As soon as he asked, he realized the answer and mentally kicked himself for not catching that. He even received a un-necessary punch from Tristan in the shoulder. "Uh, sorry, Yuge, didn't think before I talked."

"Do you ever?" Tristan asked and took a bite from his turkey sandwich.

Yugi smiled and shrugged, "It's alright, I don't mind. But yes, I do know a lot about treating wounds." His voice trailed off towards the end.

Atem stepped in and quickly said, "So, Yugi, how did you do on that math test? I heard that you get the scores today, and if I remember correctly, you had it first period."

Said name looked up with a sulking frown. "Yeah, we got our results back..."

"And...?"

"I have to go in for to talk with the teacher."

Ryou looked up thoughtfully from his lunch, "I got a minty-two, though the test was a bit hard this time."

"Hard?" Joey snorted and almost caused a show with his milk, "Dude, you got a ninety-two on it! How is that hard?"

The silver hair slightly blushed, "I dunno, but it still was hard." He looked back down to his food and took a bite.

"So what did you get, exactly?" Tea asked, nudging her boyfriend with her shoulder.

"A seventy-three."

Tristan thought for a minute before asking, "Then why do you have to go talk to the teacher."

Yugi frowned and turned an innocent glare towards his brother. He looked more like he was pouting. "A certain someone told the teacher that they could tutor me and help me get better grades..."

Atem held up his hands in surrender, his Dr. Pepper still in his hands. "Hey, I'm here to help and be a look out for you."

"But that was uncalled for! I was doing fine!" He whined. "Now I have to go talk to her about all of this extra work that will be due soon. Thanks, Mou hitori no boku."

"Now I feel like you only use that name if you either want something, or to use in a sarcastic way," Atem frowned, just now noticing. He dropped his hands and went back to drinking his soda and eating the chips he had bought. Like Yugi, he wasn't as hungry, but was still trying to eat something.

Tea smiled, enjoying the brother moment. "So, what time are you supposed to meet the teacher?"

Yugi was just about to say something with the halfway bell for lunch rung. His eyes widen as he said, "Uh... right now!" He stashed his water back into his bag and slung it back on.

"Well, I hope you aren't late," Tristan joked as he watched his friend kiss Tea's cheek before standing up.

"I'll see you guys later," Yugi said in a rush and started to walk towards the school at a fast pace, even though it was hurting his side like crazy. But right now, that didn't matter, all that did was getting to math class to talk with the teacher so he wouldn't be late for his next class.

XxxxX

The final bell rung, indicating that school had ended for the day. Students filed out of the building in groups and were all going different directions; either home, arcade, somewhere to eat, or just somewhere to hang out. The gang all gathered together and left the school grounds.

"I won't be able to go to the arcade with you guys," Tristan said with a sigh. "I have to go home and watch my sister while my mom goes to work for a few hours."

Everyone nodded as Yugi said, "Thanks to my dear brother, I won't be able to either," he sent a playful glare to his brother, and in return got a big smirk.

Joey raised an eyebrow and looked towards Atem. "Let me guess, you're going home with Yugi too?" He received a nod. "Well, then there's no point in going anymore!"

"Hey, what are we, invisible?" Tea asked, referring to herself and Ryou.

"No offense, but yeah," he joked and got smacked in the shoulder. As rubbed his arm, he re-worded his sentence, "I mean, oh no, that's not what I meant."

Ryou ignored the sarcasm and shook his head, "And, if it makes any more difference, I don't feel like going to the arcade. I'm rather tired,"

"Can't be from benching from gym," Tristan smirked, "You only did what, five?"

"Seven!" The last owner of the Millennium Ring pouted. "And no, I haven't been sleeping well."

Joey frowned, "Okay, so we'll go tomorrow, and there's no way y'all are getting out of that one!"

"What happens if we're in the hospital?" Yugi innocently asked, trying to see what the answer would be.

"Doesn't matter; you're still coming. Even if I have to break you out of there."

"In a different country?"

"I'll sneak a flight and locate you and drag you back."

"Hm... Six feet under?"

Still, Joey didn't even pause to think as he said, "I would get a shovel, un-bury you, and bring you back to life."

Tea looked a little grossed out. "Okay, you are just obsessed with the arcade or are very creepy," though she didn't mean it in a bad way.

As the group were talking, Atem was looking around the buildings, enjoying the nice weather. It was sad that he couldn't go have fun at the arcade with Joey and the others, but he needed Yugi to get his grades higher. And, he had vowed that he would help him succeed, even if that meant no play. Well... not so much play.

As he was looking at a small Starbucks across the street, he saw a man walk over to the window, sitting down with a cup of coffee. He was so focused on his laptop, he never even thought to look up.

'I know him...' He thought, looking the guy up and down. After one more quick glance at the pointy hair, the name and who he was popped into his mind. And with that thought, came a wave of anger. He looked away to his brother and noticed that he wasn't paying attention to notice anything.

"Hey, uh.. I'll meet you at home, Yugi." He said, trying to sound casual.

Yugi stopped talking to his friend and looked curiously to his Dark. "Where're you going?"

"Ah, no where important. I uh.. remember that mom wanted something from the store and asked me to pick it up." Luckily, Yugi wasn't paying too much attention to notice that Atem had said mother, who they both haven't seen since the Saturday. He just nodded. "Well, see you guys later," he addressed his friends and with a quick wave, turned around and started to head in the direction they had just came in.

Slowing his walk down, Atem paused in front of the store and looked over to see that his group of friends had turned the corner and were out of sight. Breathing a sigh of relief out, he walked away from the store to the stop light. It was just a few stores down from the coffee shop, so he could keep an eye out for it.

It didn't take the ex pharaoh long to reach his destination, and when he did, he walked casually in to it. The placed smelled like brewing coffee and a sweet aroma of baked goods. Instead of going over to the counter, Atem walked to his right and found the man of his search immediately.

Atem walked over and pulled the chair out opposite of the man and sat down without being invited.

Chokichi looked up in mid-typing, startled. When he noticed who had sat down, he regained his composure and leaned back into his chair, a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. He rested his elbows on the chair's arms and crossed them.

"Why, if it isn't my own son, coming to me." He said it with such calm. "What is it you need on this fine day? Have you been packing?"

Atem narrowed his eyes until they looked to be as slitted as a cats. He crossed his own hands on top of the table. "Let's just cut right to the chase-,"

"Why bother, Yugi? Let's just have a nice conversation instead of –," He stopped talking and slightly frowned when the boy in front of him shook his head and smiled. Well, more like smirk.

"Can you really not tell who I am?"

"What are you talking about?" Chokichi asked, confused.

"Wow, some father you are, not being able to tell the difference of your sons."

That's when he did noticed. After the man in front of him said that, Chokichi looked closely and could tell from the eyes. Yugi's were more round-ish, child like. His voice was not so deep, and something about this guy was different.

When Atem noticed that Chokichi noticed, he introduced himself, "I am Atem, Yugi's twin brother."

"I know who you are," the older man sneered, and tried to regain his calm composer. "Why are you here?"

The smirk was lost on the pharaoh's face, "I just needed to make sire you knew something," he said.

"And what would that be?"

"Yugi stays." He said. "I don't care who you are or what you do, but you are not forcing my brother to leave with you. You are not to touch him or harm him or anything, or I'll, -"

"You'll what?" Chokichi interrupted. He leaned forward, his eyes narrowing slightly. He was amused now by the statement Atem had just made.

Without a hint of hesitation, he said, "I'll kill you."

"And how do you plan on doing that, Atem? There's no way you can do anything; you're only a child."

"I have many years of experience," Atem said, though he would never mention his past where he was the pharaoh of Egypt and had been in many sword fights and Duel's requiring your life force and everything like that.

Before Chokichi could snort and say anything, Atem stood up, a little forceful, and said, "Do not touch Yugi or my mom. Do not come anywhere near me, my family, or our friends." With that, he took off walking. Walking away from the crazed man, walking out of the store, and walking home.

When Atem was gone, Chokichi leaned back into his chair, a big frown on his face and his eyes as narrowed as how Atem's were. "I guess my real son doesn't care about his friends. I guess he would rather have them die to save himself." He stared at his computer screen, ignoring his work. "I guess I'll need to take a little visit and get things going a little faster."

"See, when you multiply this number here, and that number there, then divide it by this number and then cross multiply it all by X, you'll get this." Atem instructed, showing Yugi how to do the homework in the living room. They had been going on it for about an hour, and with each passing minute, Yugi was getting more and more confused.

"But, why do you have to cross multiply it with X?" He asked, scratching his head. Iggi was right next to him, lying in a curled up ball, bored with what was going on.

Atem explained, "Well, you can't just leave X by itself now, can you?" Yugi shook his head. Atem then watched as his brother started to work the problem out, concentrating hard on it, even with the tip of his tongue out of his mouth.

He leaned back against the couch, making sure Yugi was doing it correctly.

"Like this?" Yugi asked a minute later.

"Yup. Now, try the next question,"

Meanwhile, upstairs in the hallway, Miyuki and Solomon were talking.

"I was wondering if you could go to the store and pick a few things up for me..." Miyuki said, trying to keep her voice from quivering. "I would g-go, but I'm not feeling too good." When really, she had to stay home. She had just got off the phone with a certain someone, and now had to clear the house of all but her and Yugi.

Solomon nodded. "Was this all you wanted me to get?" He asked with a good nature. He took the piece of paper his Daughter-in-law had just pulled out of her pocket, and scanned over it. Just simple things like food, and some girly things.

"Y-yes please. And, take as long as you'd like; I'm in no rush." She faked a smile. She pulled her sweater a little tighter around her shoulders like she was cold, when really she was trying to hide the nervousness.

Solomon nodded, "Oh, and I'll pick up something to eat on the way home. So, it might take a little longer."

Right when he was about to turn around to leave, Miyuki remembered one more thing, "Oh, and can you please take Atem with you?"

"Sure, and I'll take Yugi also,"

Panic appeared in the mother's eyes, but as quickly as it had come, it quickly vanished as she shook her head. "He uh... needs to stay home."

Solomon raised an eyebrow. "Really? Was there something that he was supposed to do?"

She started to wrack her brain for something, anything that would be good enough that he would need to stay home. She thought about what he was doing right now, and nodded, "He uh... needs to continue with his extra assignment. I had … gotten a phone call earlier from his math teacher and she said he needed to turn that in as quickly as possible so he could raise his average in class." Unlike her son, she could lie a little bit better, and just a little.

"Oh, alright," Solomon nodded, though he looked a little suspicious. Whatever he was thinking, he kept to himself as he folded the list and put it in his pocket. He turned around and said, "Well, we'll be going."

Miyuki nodded and waved, When the elder was out of range, her shoulders collapsed and her legs almost gave out. She let out a low sigh of relief and closed her eyes. "What's going to happen when they leave?" She asked herself.

Slowly, she straightened up and walked over to her room. She gripped the doorknob and was slowly closing it, trying to keep her eyes away from looking at the luggage all around her room with clothes being packed into it. There was even one of Yugi's with a few of his clothes and things he needed, since she knew he wouldn't pack.

With the door closed, she leaned her head forward and rested her forehead against the wood. "I can't believe this is all happening."

XxxxX

Back downstairs, Grandpa was gathering his things, like his car keys and his wallet. He walked back into the living room to where his two grandson's were busy doing homework. He cleared his throat, getting their attention, "Sorry to interrupt your studying time, boys," he smiled, "But, I was going to the store to pick up a few things."

Yugi's eyes lit up, "Oh, can I go?"

"Sorry, Yugi, I wish you could, but aren't you supposed to be working on that homework of yours?" Grandpa raised an eyebrow. "But, I will need help carrying all of the groceries." He looked at Atem with an expected look.

"Atem got up from his spot ans agreed, "I'll come." Then he looked down at his brother, "And I expect half of this to be done when I get back, aibou," He couldn't help but smile and ruffle his partners hair.

Yugi swatted the hand away before it could mess his hair up. "Don't be expecting too much," he grinned.

The two men left after Atem had slipped his shoes on, and Yugi was left still concentrating on his work. He didn't notice that his mom had walked downstairs and into the living room until she had kissed the top of his head.

"Mom!" Yugi looked up, a bit startled. He looked at her as she sat down on the edge of the couch and pulled him into a hug. He hugged her back, and tried to hide his reaction. His mother looked off from her hair hanging sloppy from a bun, and dark circles under her eyes.

Iggi also raised his head and looked around.

"Hey honey," she said in the softest of soft voices. She squeezed him and wouldn't let go, like he was her life preserver.

"A-are you alright?" Yugi asked, curious by the sudden affection. He hugged her back, and waited until she pulled back. When she did, he noticed that her blue eyes were a bit dull and a bit... was that fear, in them?

Miyuki shook her head and moved her gaze away from her son. "I wish I was..."

Yugi looked down at his dog who looked up at him. The beagle shrugged his shoulders and then bent his head to start licking his paw in long, smooth strokes.

"Mom..." he started off but was cut off by his mother.

"I'm so sorry, honey," She said suddenly and looked back to him. "I didn't mean any of this to happen...! I-I-I," Tears formed in her eyes and she looked so fragile like a little kid.

'Something's wrong,' Yugi thought, feeling something in the pit of his stomach twist. He was about to lay a hand on her knee and ask what was wrong, when Iggi's head suddenly snapped up and a growl escaped his parted jaws. The fun on his back started to stand and he slowly raised to his paws and glared to the doorway of the living room.

Frowning, Yugi and his mom looked over to where the dog was looking, to find a man right in front of them. He bent down and before Yugi could do anything, he grabbed the boy by his neck and hauled him up by force.

"You are a piece of chicken shit," Chokichi growled, holding his son up to where they were at equal eye level.

Yugi's eyes doubled in size as his hands tried to free himself of the strong hands. "W-what?" He made out. His father wasn't squeezing or anything, so he didn't have to fight for breath.

Miyuki jumped to her feet, her eyes still wide with fear, but also something of rage, "Let him go!" She ordered.

Chokichi ignored her and slightly squeezed on the fragile neck in his strong hands. "You know what I'm talking about." He said, his eyes narrowing. "I thought you valued your friends life!"

"I d-do!"

"Then why did you tell? Are you more afraid for yourself that you don't care what happens to your friends?" He demanded and threw his son across the coffee table to the other side of the room. Yugi slide and hit the wall.

Chokichi started to walk towards him, but not before Iggi decided to attack him by biting his leg until he sunk his teeth into the man's flesh and broke the skin. "Ah, get off you damn mutt!" he hissed and tried to shake the dog off. But, the dog held on, not giving up. No one messes with his owner and gets away with it!

"Iggi!" Yugi yelled and struggled to his feet. To his horror, he watched as his father bent down and grabbed his dog by the scruff and forced him to let go. Iggi's body became frozen by the hold. "No!" Yugi yelled when he saw what his father was about to do. But, it was too late, the man threw the dog across the room.

Iggi flew into the wall and slide down, though, thank the gods, he was alright. His chest was still rising and he even tried to get up. Blood was dripping down his chin and onto the floor.

Chokichi glared at the pup and then turned to his son. "You are so annoying! I tell you to stay quiet, but what do you do? You tell!" He said, and was about to walk over to the teen who was on his feet and who wanted to run over to his dog.

"Don't you touch him!" Miyuki yelled and threw a text book at her husband.

The book hit his back and then dropped to the floor. Chokichi wasn't affected by the incident but did stop walking and turned around.

Yugi paused what he was about to do, and watched the scene play out in front of him. His father was walking over to his mother, who was now slowly backing away.

"Did you want to say something, Miyuki?" Chokichi said each word low and slowly, you could hear the anger in each word. Before the woman could move anywhere else, his hand reached out and grabbed her wrist, holding on tight. The tighter she tried to break loose, the tighter he held on.

"Y-yes," Miyuki squeaked, "stay away from Yugi. He doesn't need to be involved in any of this!" She found the courage in her voice to stand up to him. The fear left her eyes, but not completely, and in it's place was a mother's strength to make sure her child's safe.

"Oh, I believe he is," Chokichi smiled evilly and then pushed his wife away from him. When he watched as the woman fell to the ground, he turned around and began again in walking over to his son.

Yugi was slowly inching towards his dog and now mother but was stopped when a big figure blocked his view. He only had enough time to look up before he felt the same pressure on his neck as before. But this time, the pressure increased a little.

"I'm guessing you really want your friends to die, huh?" Chokichi resumed his conversation from just a few minutes from before. He picked the teen back up for eye level. His blue, narrowed eyes on the amethyst ones.

"W-what're ta-lking about?" Yugi asked, now struggling for air. He tried to wiggle, seeing if his weight was too much to hold, but found out that it didn't matter. His father wasn't going to be letting go anytime soon.

Chokichi snorted, "Are you really asking that stupid question?" He shoved Yugi against the wall and still held onto him. His son gasped out but didn't say anything. "Your damn brother!" He shouted, and shoved him again, this time harder. "You told him about me after I told you not too!"

Yugi's eyes widen as he now understood what the man was talking about. "W-what? I didn't tell h-him any...thing!" He was barely getting any oxygen into his body since it was getting harder and harder to breathe. He tried to remember if he ever did tell Atem about his father. But, his mind came up blank.

"Don't like to me, you stupid runt!" His father spat, "You told him, even though I had already gave you the consequences." When he noticed the blank look upon his son's face, he shook his head and squeezed just a bit harder, "Your brother found me this afternoon and told me to leave you alone. He even told me to leave your mom and pathetic friends alone. Now, doesn't that sound familiar?"

Well, now Yugi knew where Atem had gone when when they were walking home. It was kind of suspicious when Atem had gotten home empty handed and was in a slightly bad mood. When Yugi asked about it, Atem shook his head and had told him it was nothing. So apparently Atem had seen Chokichi and told him to stay away form Yugi... that made a lot more sense.

Yugi didn't even get to say anything before his father once again threw him across the room. This time, he landed right next to his dog.

"Expect your friends to be getting hurt, Yugi." Chokichi growled. "I'm not letting this one go. I don't care who gets involved, you are coming with me whether you want to or not."

However, before he could turn around to leave, Miyuki had gotten to her feet, and realized what was going on. "Wait," she stopped the man. He looked at her, waiting. "There's no need to hurt any of his friends!" She looked over to where her son was slowly getting to his hands and feet. One of his hands were on his neck, as he was gasping for air.

"And why not?"

"Because... Yugi never said anything." Miyuki said. She didn't know if that was true or not, but she had a hunch over what she just heard. "Atem, he... he is very protective over Yugi. He would do anything to make sure he is safe, just like what an older brother would do. He would go to extremes to ensure his safety." Which was beyond true. "Atem probably just heard about you and needed to make sure you knew that."

Chokichi crossed his arms over his chest. "And why would I believe that?"

"Because it's true." Yugi coughed, and was able to lean his back against the wall to help support his weight. Iggi was still in the same position as earlier, but this time, closer to his owner. "I... I never said a-anything to an-yone. Atem only w-wants to make sure I'm- I'm okay."

"Grrr," Iggi growled, glaring at the man.

"Huh, fine. But, if I hear anyone else knowing of this, be prepared that they will die." He said. He looked at them both and then added, "Don't forget to pack your bags; I want to leave this god forsaken place as soon as I can." He turned around and then left.

Once they heard the bell to the game shop door ring, Miyuki rushed to her son's side and was checking him for any bad wounds. "Are you okay, honey?" She fragrantly asked.

Yugi nodded, trying to get his mom to stop. "Y-yeah... Just a little sore in my neck," he said. Though, he already knew that a bruise was forming there. His father had squeezed to hard, hard enough to make a bruise.

"I'm so sorry all of this has happened!" She pulled her son in to her and hugged him tightly. "I never thought things would go this far. He... he came to my work yesterday and blackmailed me! He told me if I didn't do as he'd asked, he would kill either you or Atem or someone else! And I know he would! I- I couldn't... I didn't know what to do, so I agreed to it. And then earlier today, like an hour ago, he called me and told me that I needed to get Solomon and Atem out of the house. I didn't know why, and at first I was repelled to, but then..." Tears were streaming down her face as she hugged her son tighter. "I want to tell your grandfather, but I know that if I do, something bad will happen!"

Yugi hugged her back, understanding. "We can't go with him, though! I'm not leaving Japan. I can't! Not because if me and Atem are separated, I'd die, but I just can't. I finally have a great life here, I can't do it!"

"I know, honey. I don't want to leave either, but there's no other way." She pulled back and wiped her eyes. "Chokichi will do whatever it takes."

"Why?" Yugi asked, "why does he suddenly want us to go with him? Why now, of all time?"

Miyuki shook her head, "I don't know. He hasn't told me anything than what I just told you. I just know, what ever it is, it's something big. I don't know why he is doing this, but I really want to know why."

There was a small whine, and both human's looked down to find Iggi looking up at them with big, wide orbs. He had cleaned his muzzle of all of the blood, and looked as good as new. His fur on his back had laid flat again.

Yugi smiled and picked his dog up, clutching him to his chest. "Thanks, boy. You were so brave out there." He kissed the top of his dogs head and in return received a lick.

It was quiet between the three. After a minute or two, Yugi looked up to his mother and said, "I have a plan about this."

Miyuki raised an eyebrow as she wiped away all of her tears. "What is it?"

"Okay, dad... he told me that if I were to tell someone about any of this, then he would kill one of my friends, and he said something similar to you, right?"

Miyuki nodded her head, not seeing where this was going.

"Well, I was thinking about, –," He told her of his plan.

"No, that's too dangerous," Miyuki said, shaking her head. "And, what happens if he does find out about it? There's no telling what he'll do."

Yugi bit his the inside of his cheek. "But that's the only thing I could think of. I'm sure Kaiba could help. I just have to ask him, or Mokuba if he won't listen."

Miyuki shook her head again. "I'm sorry, Yugi, but there's still no telling what will happen." She stood up and looked away. "We'll just have to watch and see what will happen. As much as I hate it, that's how it's supposed to me."

"But mom!" Yugi argued, setting his dog on the ground and following her lead in standing up.

"No buts, Yugi." She said in a stern voice. She looked back to him and her voice softened, "I will come up with something. But, for now, keep quiet." Yugi looked away and crossed his arms against his chest, not liking this. "And, I will give you some make-up to cover your neck. I'm afraid that will turn into a bruise."

She turned around and walked towards the stairs. When she made it to the doorway, she looked back to her son and whispered, "I love you, Yugi, and I'll do anything to keep you safe."

Yugi looked over to her just as she disappeared from view. He looked away again, feeling more frustrated than he was when he was working on his extra credit homework.

"Crap... my homework!" Yugi snapped out of what he was in and quickly went to the table. But, when he sat down and looked at it, he knew he wouldn't be able to just sit here and work on it, pretending none of that had happened. He needed to do something.

He knew what his mom had told him about if he told Kaiba, then something bad would happen. But, he couldn't just sit here, and let his father take me and his mom away. He needed to do something!

And that's when Yugi had decided what he would do. He looked over to the clock and saw that it only read six-thirty pm. The sun was too bright outside to do anything, so he would have to wait till after nightfall.

Yugi picked up his pencil and went back to work. In his mind, he knew what he would be doing later when everyone went to sleep. He would sneak out and run over to the Kaiba mansion.
