FDI
Chapter 26
Hātobīto
Seto sighed as he continued to file paperwork. It had been a week, Yami hadn't shown up for work in that week, instead saying he needed a vacation. They had an hour left before they were able to leave, but Seto couldn't be happy about being able to go home. He was worried about his cousin. Yugi had told everyone about what had happened, and Seto feared the worst. He tried to call Yami, but he never answered, he went over there, but Yami never answered the door. The lights were always off at Yami's house, and Seto had no way inside.
The college students came walking in around that time, taking seats to talk to their friends. Rafael suddenly came running out of his office "Anyone heard from Sennen?" He practically yelled.
"Um, no. Why?"
"Aknadin and Mana have escaped!"
"WHAT!?" The whole group yelled.
"We have to get to Yami's house now!"
Everyone quickly loaded up in three different vehicles, turning on the sirens and headed towards Yami's house.
"How are we going to get in?" Seto asked as they unloaded from the trucks. Everyone stayed silent, thinking of ways to get in.
"Dunno, it's not like we have a spare key" Duke sighed.
Yugi's eyes widened "Oh my gosh! The box!"
"What box? What are you talking about?" Seto asked, turning towards Yugi.
Yugi pulled the large, dark red, velvet box from his pocket. "Yami gave me this before he walked away. I haven't opened it yet." Yugi opened the box and inside was a spare key, but that wasn't all. In the top of the box was a note that read 'While this may only be a key to my home, always know, only you hold the key to my heart. -Yami.' Yugi slowly handed the key to Seto, then dropped to the ground "I'm so stupid" he whispered as tears welled up in his eyes.
"C'mon" Seto said as all but Yugi ran up the steps. Seto unlocked the door and charged in, shocked to find the lights on. "Yami?"
"So nice of you to join us Seto." Seto's eyes widened at the sound of Aknadin's voice.
"Aknadin!" Seto growled as the FDI members pointed their guns at Aknadin.
"I'd drop your weapons, wouldn't want your cousin to end up with a hole in his head." Aknadin walked out of the shadows from the dark stairwell, Yami in front of him with a gun to his head. Yami looked bad, he looked like he had the hell knocked out of him. His right eye had blood coming from it, but he kept it closed. He had scratches and bruises all over his body, and looked like hell. He was in dark blue sweat pants and white socks.
"Kill him Seto" Yami groaned, sounding weak.
"Shut up" Aknadin growled, shoving the gun against Yami's head.
"Where are Brutus and Blue?" Seto asked.
"Tranqulized" Mana answered, walking out behind them "Couldn't have them keeping me away from my future lover" she said, walking over to Yami and wrapping her arms around him.
"Get off me" Yami growled, twisting from her grasp.
"Shut your mouth!" Aknadin growled back, making the FDI agent stay still. "I told you all to drop your weapons, now do it!"
Seto and the others dropped their guns on the floor, kicking them towards Aknadin. "Good, now let's just head into the living room" he said, shoving Yami forward, making the others go in front of them.
In the living room, lay the two unconcious dogs. Yami closed his eyes and looked away "Oh come now honey. They're not dead" Mana purred. Yami glared daggers at Mana, if looks could kill, she'd be dead. "Aww, did I hurt your feelings? Well that's to bad." Mana attempted to flirt with Yami, but Yami just looked away, causing her anger to flare. "Why won't you love me?! You left that stupid little brat!"
"One, because I don't love you. Two, because you're my cousin, and that's disgusting."
"What does that little brat have that I don't!?"
Yami was silent for a minute before quietly replying "My heart."
"Maybe I should just have daddy kill you now!"
"Go ahead" Yami said simply.
"I will!"
"Then do it! No ones stopping you!"
The sound of a gunshot made everyone flinch as blood splattered the room. Mana let out a scream and the others' eyes widened, to afraid to do anything. Someone had been shot, and their blood now covered the floor and the walls. Everyone sat in silence, fear evident on their faces with wide eyes, and opened mouths. Serenity turned, burying her head in Tristan's chest to look away from the sight. Mai did the same thing against Duke, as did Ryou against Bakura.
Yami opened his eyes and turned to see Aknadin's dead body fall to the floor. Looking up he saw Yugi with a gun "He was gonna kill you" Yugi whimpered, his whole body shaking.
"Yugi" Yami said, running towards Yugi, but stopping a few feet in front of him. "Yugi, give me the gun" he said holding out his hand.
Yugi stood his ground for a minute, still coming out of shock, before he slowly put the gun in Yami's hand. Yami held the gun in his right hand as he wrapped his arms around Yugi. Yugi squeezed Yami, placing his chin on Yami's shoulder. From the position he was in he saw Mana bending down to pick up Aknadin's gun. "Yami look out!"
Yami turned and flipped the gun in hand so he was able to fire it. He held Yugi with his left arm, aiming with his right. He shot his gun as Mana stood back up, aiming Aknadin's gun, the bullet going through her forehead and into the wall behind her. "They don't call me single shot Sennen for nothing ya know" Yami said as her dead body hit the ground next to her fathers.
"CID everybody freeze!"
Yami sweatdropped as his father charged through his front door. "Really dad? Just really?"
Aknamkanon smiled sheepishly "Well, I see everything is under control now."
"Way to handle things dad" Yami mumbled.
"Thanks" Aknamkanon grinned. Yami rolled his eyes and shook his head at his father.
The bodies were cleaned up and Yami was tended to since he had scratches and bruises all over his body from the beating Aknadin had given him. He ended up with a gauze patch over his right eye, due to being punched with a hand that had a ring and busted his eye open. Yami walked, with a little bit of a limp, back up his porch steps after being bandaged up by the EMTs.
"On the plus side, you won't have to worry about them again" Duke shrugged, attempting to look at the positives.
"Yeah, I guess not" Yami sighed. His eye widened as a blanket was draped over his shoulders.
"You looked chilly" Yugi said, walking out from behind him.
"Thanks."
They stood in silence for a few minutes as the police, fire department, and ambulance loaded up everything and left. Yugi was the first to break the silence. "Y-Yami. I-I'm sorry" Yugi said, lowering his head. "I should've told you, but I saw how happy you were, so I pretended to be happy too. I really tried to stay happy for you" He said looking back up at Yami. "I-I just..." Yugi sighed as once again he lowered his head.
"Yugi, please tell me. You've been acting so weird. I want to know what's bothering you, maybe I can help you."
Yugi shook his head sadly "There's nothing you can do." He said quietly, looking back up at Yami. Yugi was silent for a minute before he continued. "Yami, I've always wanted a baby of my own." Yami's eye widened, since only one could, as the other was taped shut. "But, I can't have one... I'm sterile. I found out the other day and I didn't want you to leave me because I'm sterile."
"Yugi" Yami said gently, tilting Yugi's head up to look at him. He chuckled "You are so dumb. I love you for you. Not because of something you can or can't do. Next time, just tell me." Yugi had lowered his head again, but Yami tilted it back up to look at him. "This could've all been avoided" he said quietly as he pulled Yugi in for a short kiss.
"Yami" Yugi said, an uncomfortable look on his face.
"Hm?"
"You really need to shave."
Yami chuckled "I know."
Yugi put his finger under Yami's nose in an attempt to cover the hair there as he stretched up and kissed Yami again. Yami couldn't help but chuckle at Yugi after breaking the kiss. "If it bothers you that much, I can go shave."
"It'd be much appreciated" Yugi said a smile still decorating his face.
The group laughed as the two of them exchanged sentences. They stood around talking for a while, until it became appearant that Yami was getting tired. "Alright, we'll catch you at work Yami" Seto said as he began shooing everyone towards the trucks.
Yami smiled, opening his mouth to reply, but closing it as Rafael interrupted. "Actually, agent Sennen has to pass a therapy session before he can come back. Sorry Yami, it's the rules though, and I won't make an exception because I know you. I need to know you're okay after all that."
"It's okay Rafael, after that ordeal a few days off sounds good."
"Good, then take your time, and go to the therapist when you're ready to come back to work."
Yami nodded "Okay. Thank you."
Yami's mother, who had arrived with his father, walked over to him. "You get some rest, you've had a long day" she said, her voice low, before placing a gentle kiss on Yami's gauze eye patch.
"Thanks mom."
She gently patted the side of his face with her hand "Goodnight Yami."
"Goodnight mom."
Yami's father walked over, gently wrapping Yami in a hug "Take care of yourself kiddo. We'll see you later."
"Okay."
Yami and Yugi waved at their friends as they drove away. Yugi turned to Yami after everyone had left "Well" Yugi sighed "I guess I'll head back home."
Yami grabbed Yugi's hand as he started to walk away. Yugi turned to look at Yami, asking a silent question with his eyes. Yami smiled as he said "The only place you're going, is upstairs to my room. I got bitched at by my dogs the whole week you were gone. Now get your ass inside."
Yugi giggled as he jumped on Yami, wrapping his arms around Yami's neck, and his legs around Yami's waist. Yami wrapped his arms around Yugi and chuckled along with him. "I've missed you so much" Yami whispered, kissing between Yugi's cheek and ear.
"I missed you more" Yugi whispered, kissing Yami on the cheek, sitting back to look Yami in the eyes.
"I missed you most" Yami said, smiling as Yugi leaned against him, pressing their lips together. Yugi wrapped his arms around Yami tighter, deepening the kiss.
Yami turned to carry Yugi inside, bumping into the side of the house on his way in. Yugi refused to break the kiss though, so he had to feel for the door handle to make his way in. They broke away long enough to get a breath before they were back at it. Yami locked the door and made his way up the stairs to his room. He bent down to sit Yugi down on the bed, Yugi surprised him by biting his bottom lip enough so he wouldn't pull away. Yugi pulled Yami back on the bed by his bottom lip, his arms still around Yami's neck.
Once Yami was on top of Yugi, Yugi let his bottom lip go. "I thought you wanted me to shave."
"Do you really wanna go shave right now?" Yugi asked tilting his head cutely.
Yami smiled as he watched Yugi's head tilt sideways "No, I don't think I do" he growled playfully as he started kissing Yugi once again. The two of them getting tangled up in each other as they slowly relit their flame.
Pure ecstasy running through their veins as they moved on each other. It lasted what felt like forever, Yugi felt as if his veins were on fire, he couldn't stop arching his back and pressing against Yami. He was glad he had waited now, because everything Yami did was worth waiting for, especially this.
