For a great change of pace for me, I will write something quite depressing
. . . I got the idea while listening to 'Great Escape' by Moby, which is at
the end of this, if you are interested. I am calling this 'General' because
I don't know where it belongs. I don't know whether or not it belongs in PG-
13, or not, but here it is. If I should move it tell me where to move it.
Please review.

The deal: Seto has killed Yugi for defeating him, making a fool out of him, and making him a no-body that was only ever mentioned as 'the guy with the big company who lost to Yugi'. This is Yami's revenge (supposing that Yami can survive without Yugi), and Seto is not aware that there even is a Yami, he thinks that there is just the one Yugi.
***
Seto was walking away from the job he did. He had wanted the pleasure of killing Yugi, personally, instead of sending someone else to do it for him. He had made it clean, too. There was going to be no proof, no evidence. It was all gone. Even the best detectives in the world wouldn't be able find anything. If anything, there would be circumstantial evidence, but that never got anyone anywhere. Besides, he knew that he could flub his way out of any accusations, which was the advantage of being a busy businessman who took unexpected leave often. It would appear that Yugi just suddenly left without notifying anyone. Seto had planned everything carefully. He was now the top duelist again. He was unbeatable again. He was the champion, the one people feared. There was no one who could stand in his way.
Seto was smiling smugly and walking swiftly. He heard a rustling in the bushes, but he barely took any notice.
And then, it happened. A short shadow appeared behind him, but he barely saw it and supposed it was a kid . . . with hair like . . . WHAT?! Seto spun around to catch a glance of a person similar to Yugi, but taller, whose eyes were dark with malice and a resolve for revenge. He felt his head being slammed on by a powerful fist as he blacked out.
**
Seto reawakened on a floor somewhere with no sense of time. His vision was blurry. He blinked a few times until his sight returned enough so that he could adequately see. Seto then became aware of the sharp pain on his head. He put a hand to his head in an effort to soothe his pain, but he then felt a sticky substance. Blood. "Just great . . ." Seto half sat up and then noticed the same glaring, malevolent person who hit him sitting on a chair glaring at him.
Seto glared back. "Who are you? Some person who is out to get sued?"
The person narrowed his eyes. "Don't be stupid. Don't you recognize me? I'm the one who keeps on defeating you in duels."
Seto raised an eyebrow. "I don't think so. The one and only person who could ever beat me is Yugi Muto, and it doesn't look like he's anywhere around here."
The figure glared harder. "Don't play dumb. I know you killed Yugi. For that you will pay. You extinguished my Light like a mere candle."
Seto faltered for just a moment. "Who the hell are you supposed to be? I am no killer! I have never killed anyone!"
He sneered. "I know you did it. I can see the truth. As for who I am, I am Yugi's dark half, but not in the split personality way. Haven't you ever wondered why Yugi always wore that puzzle? Well, that's where I came from. Now with all the questions answered, I will begin. You took my life away. Because of that, your fate is now in my hands."
Seto looked a little astonished. As hard as it was to believe, Seto could see that this guy was the real deal. He was Yugi's darkness, his Yami, and now he, Seto Kaiba, the one who thought he had so cleverly planned everything, would pay.
Yami smirked. He pulled Seto by the hair to his feet.
Seto let out a great shout of pain. Yami then dragged Seto out of the dark room they were in. Seto saw a swimming pool but no people. Darn. He knew what was coming.
Seto was forcefully being held into a sitting position. He tried to break free, but he was just held down tighter. Damn, he's strong for such a short guy. Seto shut his eyes, and his heart began to race. He felt chains being wrapped around him and heard their clatter.
"Open your eyes. Yugi was braver when you killed him." Yami ordered.
Seto remembered. Yami was right; Yugi had looked him straight in the eyes until his last moments, defiant, perhaps, in his own way. And here he was, afraid, not even keeping his eyes open. He slowly opened his eyes. He was a little surprised, he could still feel the weight of the chains on him, but he couldn't see them.
"What is this stuff?" Seto whispered.
Yami smirked. "Look closer."
Seto squinted, and then he saw them. The chains certainly were there, but they were made of something else that made them look almost invisible. He had no idea where Yami had gotten this stuff, especially on such short notice, but it didn't matter, all that mattered was that these near invisible chains were being used on him.
"Look." Yami ordered again. Seto looked up to see Yami holding up a key. Yami smirked. He locked the two ends of the chain together and then threw the key into the water. He didn't know how Yami could even see the lock in the first place, but yet again, it didn't matter anymore. Seto tried to calm himself so that his beating heart wouldn't take up so much air later, but it was hard. He was panicking.
Yami smirked and firmly held Seto by the shoulders and dipped him into the water. Slowly. He stopped when the water reached Seto's chin. Yami smiled coldly. "Are you ready?"
Seto took a last, shaky, breath. Yami let go. Seto closed his eyes tightly as he felt the water slowly swoosh past his face. He couldn't swim up because of the weight of the chains. Seto was quickly running out of air. He felt his lungs begin to tighten. Seto tried to grab something so he could hoist himself up, but the chains were still too heavy. Yami saw this and smirked.
Yami was counting seconds. " . . . One eighty, one eighty-one, one eighty- two, one eighty-three, one eighty-four, one eighty-five . . ."
Meanwhile, Seto had opened his eyes, so that his last moments wouldn't be spent in darkness. And then . . . he saw the key that Yami had thrown in earlier. He made a grab for it with his right hand and slowly wrapped his fingers tightly around it. He then felt for the lock with his opposite hand. Luckily for him, the lock was right next to his left hand. Seto then fit the key in the lock and turned it feverishly. The lock slid open and the chains were slipping off. With all of his strength he swam to the top. He got a great gasp of air. He tasted the water . . . salty . . . he was crying. "A-are, are, are you ha-hap-happy now . . .?"
Yami glared at him. "Never. Your sins will never be atoned for. No matter what you try to do, it won't make up for the life you took."
Seto looked at him helplessly, and still breathing hard. "B-but, w-why. Why must you k-kill me this way!"
Yami scowled. "I don't have to explain for anything. Shut up and take your punishment." Yami pulled Seto's hands behind his back, and held them there, tightly.
Seto smiled bitterly. Yes, THIS was the ruthless person that he had dueled all those times.
Yami shoved Seto's head into the water and pinned the rest of him down.
Seto wasn't exactly prepared. He wasn't going to fight now. He knew that he deserved this. He was only wondering how long he could hold his breath . . . soon darkness consumed him . . .
Yami felt Seto's tense muscles go limp. Yami closed his eyes. 'I've done my very best for you, Yugi. I know you didn't want it this way . . . but this was the only way. Good-bye. Yugi, I love you.'
