"It seems you have awakened." Said the sinister sound of the voice which came from the evil child.

"W-Who are y-you?" Yugi asked in fear as he scanned the shadow-hidden figure. His whole body was covered in the mists of darkness as he hid in the realm's depths. His piercing eyes were an intimidating crimson that seemed to match up with the thirst for the disgusting stench of blood. The mysterious boy's hair was in the exact shape of Yugi's hair - star-shaped. Albeit, the shadowed boy's hair seemed to be more spiked and menacing. His form was exactly the same as Yugi's as well as the height.

Although he seemed to look like Yugi, excluding the hate-filled eyes and the threatening hair, he seemed to be more dangerous. Yugi wasn't sure why he seemed more dangerous... Maybe it was his appearance? Or maybe the atmosphere which generated around him. The feeling of disaster and death mixed in the spine-chilling, bone-breaking, blood-boiling emotion which floated around him.

He was just so... disturbing...

The monstrous boy stepped out of the shadows revealing himself to the panic-struck boy. Yugi examined the boy's features as his eyes widened with horror. "Y-You're... me..." Yugi whispered out of devastation. There was only two ways to noticed who is Yugi and who is the sinister child. One of the ways is by looking straight into their eyes. The other way was to notice how dull each of them looked. Yugi's darker half, (the other child) looked murderous, yet dull and damp. His eyes would mold your feet into the ground before destroying your soul; leaving an empty shell of a human.

"I told you, Yugi. We're exactly alike. Although, I am the darkness which you have neglected. The darkness who gave you the power. But you didn't accept it. Therefore you didn't accept me - or yourself."

"N-No! Y-You can't be me!"

"But I am... Face the truth, Yugi..."

"W-Why?"

"Why what?"

"Wh-Why are you d-doing this t-to me?"

"Because you do not accept me. You do not like me. Consequently you do not trust yourself, so you must shrivel up and die. Die like you was destined to do. Die like you was born to die. You are an empty shell like all the rest; we will swallow up your world and your fellow humans. You shall all become extinct."

"I won't let you!" Yugi yelled, attempting to flail his arms in fury; finding that he couldn't move due to the chains restraining his every movement.

"You do not have a choice in the matter."

"Oh, really?"

"Yes. Now, if you don't mind me, I shall be going."

"No wait!" Yugi wailed, but unfortunately the boy had already left. Vanished without a trace. He laid on the floor, unable to do anything about his surrounding areas of the darkness or the tightly restrictive chains which made his wrists bleed from the unyielding pressure.

With Yami, Joey, Malik, Marik, Bakura and Ryou...

"What happened to you two?" Malik asked in horror as he saw that both of their faces were pale and that they were continously coughing as well as spluttering out blood every now and then. The extreme pain from the coughs which came out of their rough throats made tears force their way down, coursing down their cheeks.

"Yugi..." Yami whispered, coughing up more blood.

"What about him?!" Malik quizzed.

"He's... he's out there *cough*. Find him... Tell him I-I love him...". Tears of sadness and guilt washed down Yami's eyes as he fell unconscious afterwards, leaving Joey awake to try to comfort him.

"We will be back soon, alright?"

"Okay, make sure *cough* you tell him." Joey insisted, falling asleep from exhaustion.

With Malik, Marik, Bakura and Ryou...

"We need to find Yugi and tell him Yami loves him." Malik protested as they headed towards Yugi and his Grandpa's shop.

"What's the point?! He'll end up killing us!" Bakura challenged.

"I don't think he will, Bakura; I think he's confused and lonely."

"What are we waiting for?!" Marik argued. "Let's just go already, I want to give him a piece of my mind!"

"No, we're just going to talk to him."

"Ugh... fine..."

The group managed to arrive at the house after a long and tiresome journey of arguing, annoyance and torment. They stepped up to the door and read the notice which was hung upon it. The note read,

'Yugi, my boy,

If you are reading this, then I would like you to know that I have gone on a dig for eight months. I know that it is a long time, however I must acquire the precious artifact and the glorious money in which I will gain.

I miss you, Yugi. Please come home soon.

Love from,

Grandpa.'

"His Grandpa must be really depressed about him leaving..." Marik said, sarcastically. Malik elbowed him in the gut which caused him to hiss in pain as he tapped him on the arm with disapproval.

Bakura noticed that the door was slightly ajar and gave a confused look to it. 'Yugi must have gone inside...' He though, quizzically. Shaking away his thoughts, he held his arm out in front of the group who were behind him and signaled them to back away. They obediently backed away and Bakura opened the half-opened door some more just so they could easily fit in.

They all walked in the house and looked around as if it were haunted and infested by ghosts/monsters. All of the lights were turned off and a ghastly presence filled the air, sending chills all the way down their spines; making them all frightened.

"STOP!" A voice emitted, screaming their lungs out, their voice filled with pain and misery! The scream was loud enough to be hear by the whole street as it was ear-bleedingly loud and sounded bone-breakingly agonising. Whoever it was sounded as if they were being brutally murdered in the most gruesome way possible.

Each of the group gasped in shock as they darted off towards the voice, lunging and thrusting themselves upstairs to find...
