Difinity: I've gotta update more often!!


Summary: Once in the park, Yugi explains to Tea that Trinity is in fact, Yami's girlfriend. Trinity and Tea then decide to put their feelings for Yami aside, so that they can become friends. Trinity then decides to reveal her secret to the others. After school the next day, Yugi brings home Joey and Tristan. Trinity then explains to them the situation that is going on. A knock interrupts them, and Ryou comes in, bruised, hurt and terrified after he was attacked by his yami, Bakura, who had escaped from the Shadow Realm. Ryou then confesses that Bakura knows that there is a new Millennium Item, and that his next target will in fact be Trinity...


Difinity: YAMI!!!!!


Trinity: He's not coming out.


Difinity: Eh?


Trinity: Well......um.....it's the whole crying thing.


Difinity: O.O


Trinity: -_-;;; Yeah, so...he'll be gone for a while...but I got the next best thing!


Difinity: ?


Trinity: YUGI!!!!!


Yugi: What am I doing here?!


Difinity: * screams and glomps Yugi*


Yugi: * trying to breathe* I can see why I'm here.......


Trinity: * sigh* I'll go get the jaws of life...




Chapter 10.....

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*



" What are you talking about Ryou?" Yami questioned Ryou angrily. " How does he know that Trinity has the 8th Millennium Item?" Ryou shook his head sadly.


" I don't know!" Ryou cried helplessly. " If I knew I would tell you! But I don't know how!" Yugi stepped between the two. He put his hand up towards Yami.

" Please Yami," Yugi asked solemnly. " Ryou doesn't need this."


" But Aibou-"


Yugi turned pleading eyes to his dark. Yugi's eyes filled with concern for Ryou. Yami, reading his light's expression, backed down. Yugi put his arm around Ryou and gave him a small smile. Ryou bit his bottom lip.


" I'm sorry," he said. Trinity spoke up.


" No Ryou," she walked over and crouched in front of him. " It's not your fault. It can't be your fault. If Bakura wants to come after me so be it. Don't blame yourself for his mistakes, or his choices." She patted his cheek, and he wiped the tears that were trickling down his face. " Don't worry. He's not the only one who can use Shadow Powers. And I'm not talking about Yami." She grinned.


" Y-you can use Shadow Powers too, Trinity?" Ryou asked. Trinity poked his nose playfully.


" Let's just say he's not the only one with a little dark flame inside," Trinity winked at Ryou, which caused him to smile.


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*


During the rest of the week, the gang kept a close eye on Trinity as well as Ryou. Both were obviously in danger. Joey and Tristan would check on Ryou at home, just in case if Bakura attacked him again, and Tea, Yugi and Yami hung around Trinity whenever they could.


" Stop it you guys," Trinity commanded to Tea and Yugi one day. Trinity was reading a magazine, but she could feel Tea and Yugi's eyes staring at her. Yugi leaned on the wall by the door, and Tea sat on the couch opposite the sofa Trinity sat on.


Tea and Yugi looked her way. " Stop what?" Tea asked.


" Stop staring at me! You guys are acting as if you look away for one second, I'm gonna disappear!" Trinity put down her magazine. " I know you guys have good intentions, but this is ridiculous! You guys are on me and Ryou 24 hours a day! Give it a rest!"


Tea bit her bottom lip.


" But Trinity, you know how protective Yami is," Yugi said from the doorway. " He'd kill me and Tea if we were to leave you alone."


" But I'm not a little kid! I can take care of myself!" Yugi's raised his eyebrows.


" Really..?" Yugi said. " What about that time when you being kidnapped in the park?" Trinity blushed. " Or that time Tea attacked you?"


Tea cocked her head to the side. " But she did handle herself pretty well that night," Tea offered.


Trinity folded her arms over her chest and huffed. As true as it may seem, she did know how to take care of herself. She wasn't helpless. And she certainly wasn't a push over. This was just ridiculous, having her friends watch over her as if she was going to disappear at any moment. Sure, their intentions were good, but they were just paranoid. Bakura was no where to be found. He was out looking for her, and still, he hadn't found her. She could handle him. She wasn't a coward. Trinity sighed and she picked up her magazine again. All she could do was wish that this nightmare would be over soon.


All she could do is wish, and hope.


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*


" You haven't found him?" Yugi asked his dark that night. Trinity had gone to bed, and now, in the late hours of the night, Yami sat with his hikari outside in the dark. Fireflies buzzed about, making it seem as if the stars had come down from the sky and were floating about. Yami leaned back on a pole by the doorway. His light looked up at him. Yami shook his head solemnly.


" No. I've looked everywhere in town. I haven't asked anyone, because that might put Ryou in danger," Yami looked as if he were deep in thought. " One thing that troubles me, is how did he manage to escape the Shadow Realm? I placed a powerful seal on the entrance. How could he break it?"


Yugi shuddered at the thought of being in the Shadow Realm. It's cold surroundings could crush the strongest man's hope of ever getting out. All that negative power, could crush the purist soul in minutes. Lost, evil souls roamed, looking for unsuspecting pure souls to attack and destroy. After, the pure person would be a desolate lifeless being, with no past or future.


" I-I don't know," Yugi said quietly. " You know, where getting on Trinity's nerves. She yelled at me and Tea today. She wants to be left alone Yami."


Yami looked at his hikari with confused eyes. Yugi raised his eyebrows, and Yami nodded in understanding. Yami folded his arms over his chest. He looked up at the night sky.


" She'll be okay Yami," Yami heard his aibou say quietly. " She's not a pushover you know." Yugi smiled brightly through the darkness.


" Where would I be without you Aibou," Yami returned his light's smile.
