Yu-Gi-Oh Alternate Endings

It had been a week or so since the whole ordeal with the Dark Lord.. Yugi had just started going back to school, but rarely said a word. Since Yami died he hadn't really been himself. His grandfather had grown worried for the boy. He rarely slept, ate, or anything.

Right now Yugi was in his english class. He was starring blankly at the piece of paper and sighed some. What was he doing here, he wondered. Why was he sitting in class when he should be out somewhere else. Where that somewhere else was he didn't know, but he had the feeling that that's where he needed to be.

The bell rang and Yugi got to his feet and gathered up his things slowly and silently walked out of the class. He tried to make sense of what Shadi had told him the day Yami died but couldn't. Something about things being deceiving or something.

As Yugi slowly made his way down the hall his thoughts began to wander on recent events. The whole ordeal with that Dark Lord guy, starting on his summer vacation with Yami.. when he died, came back to life, spent that little time with his lover, then Yami's death.

Yugi had begged Shadi to bring Yami back, but Shadi said it was not possible. Why that was he never said. All he said was, "Trust me, Yugi, if I could I would, but other things have taken place to make this task impossible.. You will see." Those words alone confused the boy. He wasn't sure of how to take that comment, but decided not think much on it.

Now Yugi was wandering down the hall towards his locker to grab his books. Today was his first day back at school, seeing how his ribs were still broken.. plus the fact that he was still mourning for the loss of Yami.

"Yugi!" came a female voice. Yugi slowly turned to see Tea weaving around the crowed of students. He merely waved a little at her as he silently grabbed his books and shoved them into his backpack. He then closed his locker and sighed.

He turned to see Tea step up to him with a small friendly smile. "Hey, Yugi.. you doing ok?" she asked. She had heard about Yami's death through Mai, who heard about it from Joey. Yugi merely shrugged as he began to walk to his next class.

Tea frowned sadly and sighed. "Yugi, I so sorry about Yami... I really am.." she then said quietly. This made Yugi stop, his eyes threatening to tear up. He gave a shaky sigh and sniffed a little. "I miss him so much.." he said as his voice began to break. Perhaps he should have listened to his grandfather and stayed home today.. But he felt that if he went to school it would take his mind off of the whole thing.

Tea rubbed Yugi's back a little and felt bad about mentioning it to begin with. "I'm sorry, Yugi.. I shouldn't have said anything." she said quietly. A few tears escaped Yugi and ran down his cheeks. He sniffled and shook his head. He wiped those tears away now. "It's ok, Tea.. I've been trying to forget about it all day.." he said as he began walking again.

Tea only sighed and shuck her head some. She felt bad about what she just did. She caused Yugi more pain then needed. She silently followed him now as her next class was with him. She only hoped that things would go better for him soon.

Yugi was sitting alone in a random playground. He really should have gone home after school, but he just began to wander the city. He had alot on his mind and it was his only excuse for being here.

He sat on a swing, rocking it back and forth a little as he looked down at the sanded ground. He sighed a little as he began to talk to himself in his head. One might have found it crazy, but of course EVERYONE does it at least ONCE in there life, right?

But of course he was just thinking simple things, such as why Yami had to leave him, why couldn't Shadi bring him back, and most importantly how alone he felt now. Why did you leave me Yami? What is the point of me living when I don't have you with me? Yugi questioned himself.

He sighed as the tears began to slowly slide down his cheeks. He had just decided to give up on life. It had been so cruel to him from the start anyways.. First he lost his parents, was always picked on and beaten up by other kids, never had a friend till his freshman year in high school.. He then lost the one person he loved more then anything. Then he was still picked and beaten on.. Who said that he wouldn't lose anyone else after that?

He was beyond depression.. he was downright sick of life and the pains that came with. Sure the last couple of years have been sort of fun and interesting.. but it was over now. He slumped in the sing as he stopped it's slightly comforting rocking motion and silently sobbed.

He was about to just go home but that was until something stopped him. "Don't give up THAT easily, Yugi.." came a familiar voice from right behind him. His heart stopped, and his heart ached. Unless he was going insane he thought he just heard Yami's voice.

As he got to his feet he slowly turned around to see who that voice belonged too. As he looked at the person his heart broke into pieces with grief. Now I'm SEEING things.. he thought. //No, Aibou.. I'm very much real..\\ Came Yami's voice in Yugi's mind.

Yugi began to cry now as he slowly stumbled over to the taller and fell into his arms. "Oh god, please tell me I'm not dreaming." he sobbed in Yami's chest. The Pharaoh held Yugi tightly in his arms and kissed his forehead once. "Your not dreaming, my Yugi.." he said quietly as he too just wanted to break down. Yugi's cries grew a little louder as his arms wrapped themselves tightly around Yami's back. Yami sighed as he tried to calm Yugi down as he thought to himself.



~~It was an interesting turn of events really. One moment Yami knew he was dieing, then the next thing he knew he was standing in a dark room alone, and in the nude. He had blinked and flushed when Shadi suddenly appeared to him. Yami quickly covered his.. you know what, and gave the other an uncomfortable look.

Shadi paid no mind to Yami's obvious embarrassment and cleared his throat. "Whe-where am I?" Yami stuttered as he looked around. "And why am I naked?" he questioned next as he continued to cover his privates. Shadi waved his hand once and suddenly a blanket appeared and landed over the top of Yami's head.

The Pharaoh struggled as he pulled the blanket off his head and covered himself up with it. "Great Pharaoh Yami, you are not dead, nor are you living." Shadi began. Yami blinked in confusion as he raised an eyebrow. "Then just what the hell am I?" he asked impatiently.

Shadi ignored to Pharaoh's irritated demands and began to speak again. "You are merely a shadow of your formal self. The dimension you were in when you "died" has different terms and rules for one's death." Shadi continued. Yami blinked trying to understand all what the Egyptian was saying. "I can send you back to the dimension your from and you will be alive, it will be like you never died.." he finished.

Yami began to get irritated again as he grumbled a bit. "Then why are you wasting time by telling me all this! Send me back already!" he demanded. Shadi blinked once and quickly regained his composure. He cleared his throat a bit and looked at Yami with a serious expression. "The Elders want something in turn, Yami." Shadi explained.

Yami's annoyance grew with Shadi's games. He glared at the man angrily as he clenched his hands into fists. "What do they want?" he asked impatiently. He was ready to get back to Yugi. Who knew how his lighter half was handling his supposed death. "Simple.. They want you and Yugi to be permanent guardians of your dimension. In other words, you can be Elders for your world, of course this wouldn't happen until you both die.. Since you are unable to produce a child of your own, the Elders have decided to take you on as Elders in a spiritual manner." Shadi explained. Yami fell silent as he thought on this. He wasn't sure of what this meant exactly, but he also knew he needed to talk to Yugi about this..~~

This was what had happened.. this was how Yami was able to come back. But now he needed to explain the situation to Yugi. How he was gonna do that was a different story. He sighed as his hikari slowly let him go now and looked up at him. "How.. were you able to come back? Shadi wouldn't tell me.." Yugi said quietly.

Yami got a thoughtful look and gave his Yugi a small reassuring smile. "I'll tell you at home.." he said after a short pause. Yugi simply nodded and took Yami's arm in his arms and they began to walk home now. Yugi wasn't sure of what just happened, only that if this wasn't a dream that he would do ANYTHING for the person who brought Yami back.. Well almost anything, now that he thought about it..

Back at home Yami sat Yugi AND Sugoroku down and began to tell them what happened.. Of course starting back at the last moment he was alive before he died in that dimension. He then explained that Shadi had come and talked to him, telling him that he would only bring him back to THIS dimension if he would agree to being an Elder once he died.. alongside with Yugi because of their inability to give birth to an heir.

Yugi and Sugoroku was silent through the whole explanation, and even now after it was over. They were very confused, and Yugi would bet money on that statement. "So.. what when we die we wont go to heaven or whatever.. Just become "Elders"?" Yugi questioned to clear things up.

Yami nodded and Sugoroku got a look of concentration. "We will be able to see our friends and family whenever we'd want.. I had to negotiate that in there." Yami then said. Sugoroku's thought-filled look disappeared into a more satisfied, everything's been explained now, type of look.

He stood and stretched after a moment and smiled. "Well, I'm sorry to up and leave, boys, but I have a store to run if we wanna eat." he then said calmly. As he walked past Yami he patted his shoulder a couple times with a friendly smile. "Good to have you back." he said before he left.

Yami blinked and shrugged as he sat next to Yugi. "So.. what do you think?" he asked his Aibou quietly. Yugi sighed and thought a moment. "We can see our friends and family, right?" he asked just making sure he heard correctly. Yami nodded in turn, which meant it was Yugi's turn to speak again. "Well... I guess it's ok.. I mean as long as I'm with you and can still see everyone we know." Yugi said lightly.

Yami smiled and nodded. "I agree, Aibou." he said lightly as he ran a hand across Yugi's cheek. Yugi giggled a little as he snuggled up against Yami. "Just don't scare me like that anymore.." Yugi then said as he felt Yami nuzzle him a little. "I promise that this will never happen again.." Yami said lightly.

So with this new turn of event figured out Yami just hoped that they wont have to deal with anymore freaky people for a long, long, LONG time. Yugi was thinking the very same thing. So with everything said and done they decided to turn in early, seeing how Yugi was very tired, and didn't wake till morning. At least now they knew that no matter what happened that they would always be together.

Kachie: Ok, now I'm satisfied!

Yami K: o.O I hope so!

Yugi: Aww.. that was a cute ending! ^^; -snuggles with Yami!-

Yami: -snuggles back- I agree .;

Kaiba: O.o well at least I was left out of this..

Joey: -celebrates!- Yay! I will no longer be tortured!

Kachie: O.o You guys weren't nearly as tortured as poor Yami and Yugi..

Yami K: O_o I tend to agree...

Yugi AND Yami: We do too..

Kaiba: o.o This is true...

Kachie: ANYPOO! I should have new fics coming soon, so if you want to read them, go for it! See ya all laters! ^.~! Oh! And before I forget, I messed up on a few numbers in that duel I did. While King of the Abyss has the attack power of 1200 instead of 1550, O.o; I dunno how I got 1550 from 1200.. Also, I don't have the Hitokama magic card so I couldn't remember how many life points it took, so I guessed 800, sorry if I was wrong o.o
