Hmmm......ok I did give it away too soon. Now why did I do that? Ok, now I feel stupid. ^_^ Sometimes I think I'm making sloppy mistakes.

Chapter 2: Innocence's New Face
~*~* 10:15 PM *~*
"Aibou, you sure it's ok?" Yami sat on a comfortable sofa in Yugi's bed room. The sun had gone down long ago by the time the Domino freshmen got out off the shower.
"Yami, I'm fine. Really, " he wiped his damp redish hair with a towel. His wild hairdo sprung up in a mess. "Are you worried," taking a seat next to his yami, "about what happened this afternoon?" His dark violet diamond-like eyes traced around his light. Yugi's yellow bangs hung down, slightly covering his sweet face. Yami brushed the wet bangs by side. Then, he playfully pushed his index finger against the boy's forehead. "Hey, better be safe then sorry, right?"
"Yeah." Yugi smiled the way it moved Yami, when his smile turned into a frown. "You know, sometimes I really question myself," Yugi laid his hands on his lap while looking at the wooden floor. "Do I really deserve owning the millennium puzzle...?" The triangular artifact his grandpa gave him was the one millennium item that awakened Yami.
"What are you saying?" Yami patiently listened, eying from the corner of his eyes. "Are you doubting your fate, aibou?"
"I don't know. Sometimes I feel as if this is an irony."
"Don't forget. You have accomplished something no body ever did. You have solved the puzzle, which was sealed for one thousand years."
There was a moment of silence. Yugi suddenly stood up alarmed as if something had hit him. He quickly turned toward the window. There was nothing but the clouds peacefully passing by a full moon. He was about to say something but changed his mind and decided otherwise.
"I...I better go to sleep now. I promised to meet the guys tomorrow at the.....arcade" Changing into his white tank top and shorts, Yugi closed the door and left the window open for some fresh air before burying himself under the bed sheets. The reaction Yugi gave was odd.
~*~* 11:05 PM *~*~
Some dim lights were still on. Yami turned them off and thoughtfully leaned against a wall pondering in the dark.
"What ever the deal was with this afternoon's attack," he walked over to the small angel on earth, who was already fast asleep. "Such a sweet soul...." His hand gently rubbed against the moving cheeks of his light. Yugi turned in his sleep. Yami noticed a little hand clutching his shirt, like a younger brother who felt save in his home, save with Yami around him.
"Sleep well, Yugi," he loosed the boy's grip on him so as to not wake him up. For a moment there was tranquility until Yami sharply perked up. He sensed the immediate presence of another in the room. He spun around near the window where the moon light entered the room. There was a pitch black raven sitting near the open window. It quietly croaked its cacophonous mutter. The horrible sounds no living being loved to hear.
"A messenger of death? Here?" His eyes blinked obviously interested in the arrival of this creature. The animal's narrow eyes gazed deep into those of Yami's then it preyed upon the peacefully sleeping figure next to him. Yami cautiously watched the raven, then looked over at Yugi, then back to the bird.
"What brings a creature such as yourself here?" It brought up one of its wings, cleaning its feathers. It was rudely paying no attention to the spirit of the puzzle.
"Answer me!" he demanded. If the pharaoh hadn't known better, he could've sworn seeing a sly grin curving at the bird's beak.
*Stay away from that boy, pharaoh.* There was no need for Yami to question this harsh request.
*You will die.* The boy stirred a little, anxiously mumbling something in his sleep.
"Ma-.....don't.....Yami...don't.....go." The black raven fluttered its wings violently releasing effaced feathers. It widened its glare, screaming threatening words.
*Anubis will come and claim your soul!* Yami cautiously listened. *You have little time to live pharaoh. If you shouldn't you heed my words.* Silence, that was all what filled the air. *Our god will strike you down far more worse!! You and your beloved ones!!* It took flight leaving its rough feathers behind.
Yami stood by the window. The raven had disappeared into the night. He closed the window, shutting off any other unwanted visitors who might want to harm him and the child. He turned his attention toward Yugi. There was something he saw that caught him in surprise; a single tear that escaped near a corner of his hikari. Was he in pain? Did Yugi just hear what that messenger croaked?
Yami's thumb brushed the single tear off. "....Yugi...," His aibou lightly smiled like if he had heard his voice. He was resting, yet Yami still returned the smile before disappearing into the millennium puzzle.
*~*~12:55 PM~*~*
Some time after Yami had gone into his puzzle, something slowly arose from Yugi's bed. The figure lazily strolled toward the idle millennium item that lay near the freshman's school uniform. The way it greedily grabbed the mystical item and raised it against a wall seemed like it was going to break it into a million pieces. Where will Yami be if this was to happen? What would happen to Yami if the item was destroyed?
(......No....) Came a faint voice in its mind. It tightly clutched the puzzle as the image of the courageous pharaoh flashed in its mind. Against its will it laid the heavy necklace back and decided to head for the window instead, opening it. The chilly wind howled in the ears, as it climbed out and stood on the rooftop. Its shadow left Yugi's now silent room. "..Thirst...," it mumbled. The soulless lavender eyes of the individual stared into the night sky, before swiftly jumping off the 2 floor building. Strangely, it had no problem landing on the stone pavement of the streets.
"I...I'm......thirsty.." It glanced around the other buildings, half awake and half lead by its thirst. It was drastically in need for something...or someone in particular. It frowned in response that the lights in the neighborhood were out, a sign that people have gone to sleep, although they would've been easy prey when they were napping.
However, there was an exception; a light that stood out between the buildings a little down the road. The wind blew from behind, rustling its fire like hair. It curved a devious smirk of joy, one that has never been formed before on its lips, as it made its way toward that light, to its victim, toward the house of someone he knew.....

A/N:
So what do you think? Figure what's going on? (I'm not gonna say anything....... ^_^) Or am I stuffing it up way too much? Should I cut down on writing and add more dialogue?
