Summary: Once in the Shadow Realm, the gang began to grow weary and weak. Yugi collapses, making Yami feel guilty for making his friends feel obligated to come with him on the mission. Meanwhile, Trinity asks Bakura why she is needed, if he only wants her Millennium Item. Bakura reveals that Trinity's life energy will be harnessed into her Crest, but her soul with be dispersed within the Shadow Realm, to rot and decay for all time. Trinity longs for Yami to come and save her. Back with Yugi and the gang, Yugi reassures his dark that he will be fine. Yami thanks his aibou, and is then determined to bring Trinity back home. Suddenly, a voice calls from behind, warning Yami that bringing Trinity back will not be easy. The hooded figure informed them, that " For dark powers run through the pure one's heart, now. Dark powers that destroy her pure soul and heart. Powers that have locked her in place, and will ensure her stay in the Shadow Realm...forever."
Difinity: zzzzzz...must stay awake...zzzzzzzzz

Rebecca: (--) She's been wiped out this week. School's becoming WAY too much for her to handle, then with the large assignments that they give her, she can't get enough sleep.

Chapter 17.....
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
" What are you talking about?" Tea questioned the hooded figure. It stepped forward, the hood covering his or her face. The robe was pure black, with sliver lining. It continued to be covered by the shadows.
" The pure one's heart is now a hollow brick. Evil has destroyed her purity. Only love will bring her back to the innocence which once wrapped her heart," the figure replied. " The dark seal will keep her here. No power can break it. Only true devotion and love can prevail, yet even then, a great sacrifice must be made," the figure added.
Yami looked shocked, and he balled up his fists. Yugi looked up at his dark, his full of despair. It just wasn't fair. Why did Yami and Trinity have to suffer so? Why them? Of all people, why them? Yami didn't deserve this. Trinity didn't either.
Ryou stood behind them all, shadow's covering his face. He blamed himself for the whole thing. Why did his yami have to do this? Why?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
" Get up!" Trinity pushed herself off of the ground. Her poor arms throbbed in pain, and she gritted her teeth as she felt a sharp blade slash across her cheek. Intense pain surged through her, and she quickly abandoned her attempts to get up. She cupped her cheek. She looked at her hand which was covered in blood. The figure above her glared and his foot launched up, pressing it's weight against her stomach.
" I-I guess this is what you do to Ryou, isn't it?" Trinity said, while gasping for air. Bakura bent down, and grabbed her hair. He pulled her upward, the fast yank sending stinging signals to Trinity. Her hands shot up and she dug her nails into Bakura's hand. That did no faze him. He smirked at her pain. She stood, her legs quivering, barely sustaining her. Bakura's right hand reached out at lightning speed, she grabbed her wrist. He pulled her forward, and with his left hand, sent a quick, yet hard punch to Trinity's abdomen. She clutched her stomach and again fell to the floor. She lay there, cowering in sheer pain. He kick her head, sending waves of dizziness throughout her brain.
No strong enough to stay awake, Trinity closed her eyes, hoping to seek relief in the darkness that was overcoming her.
Bakura smirked at Trinity's unconscious body. " We'll see how the Pharaoh reacts to this," Bakura hissed. He lifted Trinity's motionless body and swung her over his shoulder, her feet dangling at his chest. He marched proudly as he went in search of the Pharaoh. Forming a devious plan in his head, he walked on, feeling the energy of the Millennium Puzzle become stronger.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
" What 'sacrifice'?" Yami asked hotly to the hooded figure. " There's no sacrifice to be made!" The figure chuckled.
" Poor naïve boy, you are so blind to the truth," he or she said. " You will see in good time. But now, I fear that the evil one is coming." The figure pointed behind them all, and sure enough, there stood Bakura with an unconscious Trinity swung over his shoulder.
" Bakura!" Ryou breathed. He chuckled at their shocked faces. Calmly, he lifted Trinity from him and let her drop to the floor. Her body made an eerie thud as it hit the ground.
" Trinity!" Yami cried out. He ran forward, taking the unconscious girl in his arms. He shook her, but she did not respond. Yami's eyes widened in horror are his eyes ran across the bruises, cuts and slits that were covering Trinity's weak body. His violet eyes flamed in anger. " Bakura you monster!! What have you done to her!?" Yami shouted.
Bakura laughed. " Why nothing, Yami," he almost spit out the name. " Be glad that the runt is still breathing. I took pity on her."
" Why you rotten tomb-robbin' thief!" Joey yelled at the laughing yami. " How the heck could you do that to a girl?!" Bakura sneered at him. He shrugged.
" Easily," he replied.
" Bakura...!" Yami said, his anger building up. " I will not stand for this! You have gone too far!!" Gently, Yami let go of Trinity's body, and stood. He raised his hand up, the third eye on his forehead glowing brightly. Yami built up his energy, and was about to attack, when Bakura raised Trinity's Millennium Item in front of him, shielding him from Yami's deadly attack. Yami ceased fire at one.
" Not so fast, Pharaoh," Bakura waved the Crest in front of Yami. " I believe this contains the very life of your pretty little girlfriend. If this is destroyed, she dies." Bakura smiled and laughed at Yami, who now seemed helpless. Yami looked away.
" I warned you," the cloaked figure howled. " But you did not listen. Foolish boy, how will you help Trinity now?"
