Difinity: Muhahahahhahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!


Summary: After the carnival Yami had given Trinity a promise ring, symbolizing that their love would last forever. Trinity felt as is she were on top of the world. Life seemed so very perfect after that moment. That after noon, Joey called Yugi, informing him that he and Tristan had seen Bakura and he new who had the 8th Millennium Item, and that he was headed over to Tea's house, which is where Trinity was at the time. The guys went over there as fast as they could. Upon arriving, Yami informed Trinity that Joey and Tristan had seen Bakura. Trinity stepped outside for a moment, then out of no where, Bakura appeared. He saw her Crest and grabbed her by the wrist, causing her to scream. The gang went outside to see what happened, and there appeared a dark portal leading to the Shadow Realm. Against her will, Bakura dragged her into the Shadow Realm. Yami tried to reach for her, but failed. Yami stood there in shock, looking at the space where Trinity had disappeared...


Difinity: I'm so evil huh?


Yami: YES YOU ARE!!! How could you do that?!?!?! That sucks!!!


Difinity: :) Yeah well..too bad!! Don't worry!!


Yami: Hmph. (--;)


Difinity: 'Hmph'? What is this 'Hmph' thing? ::huggles Yami::


Yami: O.O ::blushes::


Difinity: ENJOY!!!!!!!


Chapter 15.....

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


" Yami! Yami!" Yugi shook his dark. He would not respond. Yami just stood there, motionless. His face was one of shock. His fists were clenched, his face pale. His eyes were wide, and they were filling with tears. Yugi shook his dark again, but Yami still did not respond. Yami then fell to his knees.


" Yami!" everyone said as they ran to his side. Yami's eyes were squeezed shut, his tears were locked in. Tea knelt by his side. Yami's eyes opened as he looked up at Tea. There were tears running down her face.


" Yami..," Tea said, her voice breaking. "................" Tea turned and started to cry. Ryou stepped forward. His expression was one of devastation.


" Yami..I'm so so sorry," Ryou apologized for his Yami's actions. Yami could not bear to look at Ryou in the eyes. His dark stole the most important person in his life. How could he look at Ryou? It would be the same as seeing the devil face of Bakura, and hearing Trinity's terrified screams. He could not look at him. Yami's hands dug into the earth, releasing his pain and anguish. How could he have been so powerless to help her? He took a deep breath, and tried to gain his composure. He closed his eyes again, trying to disperse the tears that were stinging his eyes. He stood.


" Yami...," Yugi said. Without warning, Yugi ran to his dark and hugged him. Yami stood there surprised by his aibou's actions. Yugi wrapped his arms around his dark tightly. Yami could feel the love and kindness that Yugi was showing him, but Trinity was still in danger, and he knew he had to do whatever it took to get her back.


" Aibou..," Yami whispered to his hikari. He could feel Yugi's innocent tears soak into his shirt. Yugi looked up at Yami. " Don't cry aibou. I can't stand to see you cry." Yami hugged his aibou tighter, and his heart hurt for making Yugi cry. Yugi reluctantly let go. He looked up at his dark. Yami smiled sadly, but his eyes held nothing but hurt.


" I'll help you, Yami," Yugi said.


" What?" Yami asked.


" I'll help you get her back. I won't abandon you now," Yugi promised. Tea stepped forward. Tears brimmed in her eyes.


" We won't either. We're helping, too," Tea said confidently. The others nodded in agreement.


" Bakura must pay for what he has done, Yami. He will not get away with this," Ryou promised. Yami looked at everyone and nodded.


" Thank you all," Yami said in gratitude for all of his friends loyalty. Joey looked a bit confused.


" Uh......but how are we gonna get to the Shadow Realm?" Joey asked. Yugi nodded, as did everyone else. Yami thought for a minute. A plan formed in his head. All Millennium Items were able to open a gate to the Shadow Realm. Obviously, the Millennium Puzzle would be able to open a gate inside, but once inside, how to get out was still a mystery. It would be difficult, but not impossible. Yami looked thoughtfully at his friends.


" Are you sure you all want to do this? It's very hard to survive in the Shadow Realm. Yugi learned that first hand," Yami glanced over to his aibou. Yugi shuddered at the memory.


" Well, yeah. But we're not summoning any monsters there. We're just going to go find Trinity and bring her back, right?" Tea asked. Yami nodded. He looked at Ryou. Ryou had an unsure look on his face, but slowly nodded.


Yami took a deep breath and stepped forward. He held his hand out, and his third eye began to glow brightly. Yami's Millennium Puzzle began to glow brightly and it twirled. The ground rumbled as Yami focused his energy. A brilliant flash of bright light blinded them all. When the light cleared, a dark portal spun. It was the entrance to the Shadow Realm. The other stared at it in awe. It seemed endless, and it looked as if you entered it, you would never come out.


" T-that's the entrance?" Tea stuttered, frightened by the graphic portal. Yugi looked at her uneasily and nodded. Yami looked at his friends gratefully. He beckoned his friends to join him. Slowly and surely each one walked through together. Upon entering, they all felt a huge rush. It felt as if a huge gust of wind was pushing against them. Suddenly, without warning, they all felt a fire burn within them. It began to sear through them, tearing them apart. They were becoming engulfed in dark energy as they passed through the gate. A large weight pressed against them, and it felt unbearable. Yugi cried out in pain, obviously he wasn't experience. Tea screamed, Joey, Tristan and Ryou yelled out in pain. Yami did not. Upon hearing his aibou's cry, he turned and held onto him. Yugi looked and saw Yami's panic-stricken face. Yami grabbed his light and did not let go.


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


" Let me go!" Trinity yelled at Bakura, who still had a fierce grip on her wrist. He grinned evilly. She felt cold snake through her insides as she saw him grin. He chuckled as he gripped her wrist harder. She winced in pain.


" I have no intention of letting you go anywhere, Trinity," he hissed. " Oh no..you're all I need to make my plan complete. Once I have your Millennium Item, I will clearly threaten your life." He stopped to grin. " Then, Yami will have no choice but to give up the Millennium Puzzle. Not that I'll let you live of course.."


Trinity's widened. " Y-your going to kill me?" she breathed. He nodded.


" Why of course, Trinity. But before I do that..I'll have to place a little 'seal' to make sure you won't escape." His Millennium Ring began to glow and she stared at it fearfully. He covered her eyes, and she was engulfed in darkness.


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


" W-where are we?" Tea asked looking around. The area seemed to look like a mix of dark colors. Cries could be heard from everywhere and flashes of red fire where blasted. Tea took a step forward on to be attacked by a sharp pang in her heart. She clutched her chest and dropped to her knees.


" Tea!" everyone exclaimed. The all gathered around her and Yami knelt beside her.


" What's wrong Tea?" Yami asked. She looked at him.


" A sharp pain, right in my heart," she whispered fearfully. Yami looked at her grimly. He shook his head.

" I knew this would happen. The Shadow Realm is taking its toll on her. Be careful, all of you," Yami warned. " It will become very difficult to continue on here. You will feel pains just like Tea's. Do not be alarmed. But if you really can't make it, I've got to get you out of here," Yami finished grimly. Yugi and Joey helped Tea up.


" This is just getting plain creepy," Joey said, looking at Tea.


" Yami how are we supposed to make it here when already one of us is already losing it?" Tristan asked. Yami shook his head.


" I-I..don't know..," Yami said quietly. All of them walked on through the plains. Joey and Tristan helped Tea walk, and every once in a while, Yami heard her whimper in pain. He hated himself for making his friends feel obligated to come with him, especially since he knew they would soon enough be in great pain.


" Trinity!" Yami heard his little aibou call out. " Where are you? Trinity!" Yami heard the others join in. Their voices echoed through the desolate place. Continuously, they called her name out.


After a while, they stopped to rest. Tea took a deep breath and wiped the trail of sweat that was lining down her forehead. She looked at Yami,who seemed distressed.


" Are you all right?" she asked. Yami gave her a worried smile. " There's something I've been meaning to ask you."


Yami blinked. " What is it?"


" What will happen if we can't find Trinity? What if it's too late?" Tea asked with worry. She looked at Yami. He just stared at her. He didn't even blink. " Yami?"


Yami didn't answer her question.
