1 Farewell To Amity

Chapter 2

Yugi stared out his bedroom window. Dark grey clouds were beginning to cover the morning sun.

"Why Joey?" Yugi muttered to himself as he looked outside. Yugi slammed his hand on the cold glass window. The glass cracked slightly from the force. Suddenly the bedroom door swung open. The tall and older counterpart of Yugi stood in the doorway.

"Hey Yugi. You better start getting ready. The funeral is in a little over an hour." Yami said quietly. Yugi turned and faced his other half. He opened his arms, beckoning Yami for a hug. Yami smiled weakly and walked over to Yugi. He reached down and embraced Yugi tightly. He let go and looked at Yugi.

"Thank you, Yami" Yugi said, looking up at Yami.

"Anytime, Aibou" Yami replied. He turned and left the room.

Yugi walked into the front room twenty minutes later. He was wearing a traditional black and white suit and his millennium puzzle. He saw that Ryou Bakura and Yami Bakura where already there.

"Hey Yugi. You look really nice." Ryou said, looking over the boy.

"Thank you." Yugi said flatly. Yugi turned and walked into the kitchen. He picked up a red apple and rubbed it on his jacket. He took a bite out of the apple and threw the rest away.

"Yugi? Why did you do that?" Came Yami's voice from behind him.

"I decided I wasn't hungry." Yugi explained. Yami nodded and walked to the front room. Yugi sat down at the kitchen table. He folded his arms and put his head down on the table. His lilac eyes filled with ice blue tears as he thought about Joey.

Meanwhile in the other room where Both Bakuras and Yami Yugi were, there was a knock on the door. Yami Yugi opened the door. There stood Seto and Mokuba

Kaiba.

"We were all supposed to meet here, right?" Seto asked, looking at the lack of people in the room. Yami nodded.

"Take a seat and we will wait for the others." Yami said.

"Big brother? Where is Yugi?" Mokuba asked in a shy voice. Seto shrugged.

"Mokuba, the last place I saw him was in the kitchen. I will go look." Yami Yugi said, turning away. Yami walked into the kitchen and saw Yugi crying at the table. Yami went over to him and put his arm around his shoulders.

"Aibou? Are you alright?" Yami asked. Yugi shook his head.

"I miss Joey." Yugi said through tears.

"We all do, my little light." Yami whispered. Yami ran his fingers through his small counterpart's multicoloured locks.

"Come on Yugi, let's go see the others." Yami said, slightly moving his hand towards the living room. Yugi nodded and lifted his head, his eyes red and puffy from crying. Yami handed Yugi a tissue. Yugi wiped his eyes and walked behind Yami.

"Yugi!" Yelled Mokuba Kaiba, as he ran towards his friend. Mokuba hugged Yugi, but Yugi was not interested. As Yugi walked towards the last empty chair, there was a knock at the door. Yugi sighed and trudged towards the front door. He opened the door and there stood Tristan and Tèa.

"Yugi!" The two said in unison. Tèa lent over and gently kissed Yugi on the cheek.

"I'm not gunna welcome you like that" Tristan said sarcastically. Tèa gave him an evil look. The three walked back into the front room.

"Well, we are all here. Should we go?" Yami Yugi asked.

"What about Malik and Isis?" Yami Bakura asked.

"We are meeting them there." Yami Yugi said. Yami Bakura nodded and stood up. The others stood and followed Yami Yugi out the door.

They arrived at Domino City Graveyard and walked towards the office.

"Excuse me, ma'am. We are here for Joey Wheeler's funeral." Yami Yugi said to the young girl behind the desk. She began to type on her computer keyboard.

"Yes. The funeral will be starting shortly. Please allow Thai to show you to the plot of earth he is being buried in." She explained, pointing to a tall girl with black hair with red streaks.

"I am Thai, please follow me. It's Joey Wheeler, right?" She said, leading them out the door.

"Yes." Yugi said quietly. They arrived at the place. Serenity Wheeler was already there.

"Serenity?!" They all exclaimed in unison. She turned and nodded.

"Wh - what are you doing here?" Ryou Bakura asked, shocked.

"It's my brother's funereal. I think I have a right to be here." She snapped.

"I mean, where were you?" Ryou added.

"Our father kidnapped me. Let's leave it at that." She said, and then turned around, facing the empty space under the large tree.

"Yugi!" Yelled a voice from behind them. They all turned to see Isis and Malik Ishtar. The two walked up and joined the others.

"Hey you two." Yami Bakura said to the newcomers.

The priest stood up in front of them and motioned for silence.

"Today we gather to give our final farewell to Joey Wheeler. He was a dedicated brother and dedicated friend to all who knew him." The priest begins. Yugi began to cry along with Tèa, and Ryou Bakura. Yugi could no longer hear what the priest was saying; he could only see his mouth moving. He did not want to hear it. Rains begin falling from the sky as the oak coffin was brought out to the empty grave. It was laid gently into the ground. The earth began to fall on top of the coffin as the workers shoved it on top. Soon the coffin was completely out of sight.

The priest finished talking and walked away. Isis and Malik turned and left first. The others also began to drift away from in silence. Everyone except for Yugi. He stood and stared at the cold, cement and simple tombstone that read,

Here Lies Joey Wheeler

May he rest in peace.

Yami walked up behind Yugi quietly.

"Come on Yugi." Yami said as he approached Yugi. Yugi said nothing. He was in a trance and could hear nothing that was going on around him.

"Yugi! Come on!" Yami demanded. Yugi suddenly shook all over, as he brought himself back to the world.

"I want to know why, Yami." Yugi said, still looking at his friend's final resting place.

Okay that's the end of that chapter! I will write more if I get more good reviews!
