Yami was sitting there scared to death. Maiko arrived a few minutes ago and told him to wait outside her room. 'What's going on in there?'
Soon the door opened and Maiko came out. "She's alright. I think I stopped the bleeding in time. She's asleep but you can go in. Just make sure she sleeps."
Yami muttered his thanks and went inside. He grabbed the chair from the corner and pulled it next to her bed.
Danielle was tucked under the covers, her breathing uneasy. Yami reached over and took her hand in his. "I'm sorry. If only I had gotten there sooner."
Yami sat back in the chair and soon fell asleep.
~*~(to the tune of Time Warp) Let's do the Dream scene again!!!~*~
Yami was in a meeting with Tea. "So Sire, what do you think?"
Yami sighed. "The Millennium Items are fine. Only I know how to get into the place and after me Yugi will know. It will only recognize one of us until it is passed on. There is no reason to worry."
Suddenly Yugi ran in as fast as his little legs would carry him. "Yami! Come quick! That scary guy is back! Dyani's in trouble!"
Yami shot straight up and went to Yugi right away. "Where is she?"
"In the gardens by the outer wall. I think he wants her to go with him."
"Yugi, go make sure Mokuba is alright." After Yugi ran off, Yami turned to the guards near by. "You! Go and get others to join you. This man must be caught now!" Yami then turned and ran out the door. 'I hope I'm not too late.'
When he got out to the garden, he headed straight towards the outer wall. Suddenly, a huge ball of energy came flying towards him. Quickly he jumped out of the way and covered his head. Suddenly he heard Dyani cry out. He got up quick and ran over to see Dyani on the ground and Yugi being chocked by that Kaiba guy. 'That bastard.'
Before Yami could run over to protect them, Dyani cried out in rage and sent out a huge amount of power. Yami stared in awe. 'What incredible power!' He moved out of it's path. After it had died down, he looked over to see Yugi on the ground and Dyani unconscious. Kaiba was no where to be found.
Yami ran over to her as he saw Yugi squirm. "Yugi! Are you alright?"
"Yes, but what about Lady Dyani?"
"I don't know." He picked her up slowly and carried her inside. Like before, he brought her to her room and placed her on the bed.
Soon, she started to wake up and sit up quickly. "Where... where am I? What happened?"
Yami placed a hand on her shoulder. "Shh. Just lay back and rest. You are a bit drained of energy."
Dyani laid back. "What happened?"
"That man Kaiba was here. All I saw was You on the ground and then this huge wave of energy. Are you alright?"
"I-I think so. I'm so sorry, Sire. Maybe I should just leave to prevent more problems."
Yami shook his head. "I told you before. You are welcomed here as long as you like. I will do as much as I can to protect you. But right now, you need to rest." Yami got up slowly.
Dyani reached out and grabbed his arm. "Please, don't leave yet. Could you stay with me until I fall asleep? Please?"
Yami was definitely shocked. No one had asked him to do this. No one except Yugi. I mean, he was the Pharaoh! He looked into her eyes and saw her panic. He couldn't help but nod. He saw a chair in the corner of the room. Yami went over, picked it up, and brought it over to sit beside her. He picked up her hand. "It's alright. No one is going to get you here. I promise."
Dyani smiled and soon relaxed into a comfortable sleep. But what wasn't expected was the great and powerful Pharaoh Yami would fall asleep next to her.
~*~AWWWWWW!!! But what about out of the dream? Next time, my friends... next time... Happy Holidays and Happy New Year! Ja ne!~*~
