Yugi and Yami reached the Game Shop and walked in, removing their shoes. Yugi sighed sadly the walked upstairs, head down. Yami couldn't bear the fact that Yugi was so depressed and it made him depressed as well. Anzu is gone, it's time to move on. Yami did care about Anzu, but he has also learned to move on. Yami walked into the kitchen to see another card on the kitchen table. He opened it up and it read: "Too bad, So sad..." Yami made a digusted look and tossed the card in the garbage, so Yugi would not be more upset than he was now. Yami looked around the kitchen then toward the basement door, which was ajar. (A/N: NOW there is a basement HA!) Yami blinked twice, knowing that the door was not open when they left. He opened the door and turned on the light. He slowly made his way down the stairs. he looked around cautiously then ventured further into the basement. It was cold, especially in the winter. Yami shivered slightly then looked toward the door to the other room of the basement. He walked over and placed his hand on the doorknob. He turned it and opened the door, walking in as he turned on the light. The lights flickered on as he ventured into the room, investigating. Yami looked around until he saw a black ninja-like mask on the floor with a card attached to it. He walked over and picked up the card, opening it. It read: "Don't turn around..." Yami gasped slightly as a rope was wrapped around his neck. Yami laced his fingers around the rope, hopefully freeing himself from sudden death. He threw his leg back, catching the figure between the legs. The figure released the rope and fell back in pain. Yami turned around quickly and banished him out of the house, having not much time to concentrate on sending him to the Shadow Realm. Yami ran upstairs and into Yugi's room quickly. Yugi snapped his head up and looked at Yami questioningly.
"Yugi someone was in the basement and they tried to hurt me.." Yami explained.
"WHAT?! ARE YOU OKAY?!"
"Yes yes I am quite alright, but I didn't have enough time to banish him to the Shadow Realm."
"All that matters is if you're okay, and you are. I'm glad."
"I am as well..."
Yugi sighed in relief and picked up his book, continuing his reading. Yami walked over and sat on the chair that was next to bed. He stared out the window, hoping that was the last time they see that figure again, which he doubted that. Yugi glanced at Yami and smiled slightly, so happy that he was alright and safe. Meanwhile, Tristan was in the middle of his new video game. His eyes were glued to the screen, nothing could've taken his eyes off of it until now. There stuck to the screen was a christmas card. Tristan paused his game and grabbed the card, reading it. It read: "Snow is white, Sky is blue don't look now.. but I'm coming to get you." Tristan raised an eyebrow and tossed the card over his shoulder. He resumed his game but then stopped abruptly when he heard a noise. He shrugged and continued. The dark figure appeared behind him, silently. The figure raised an empty glass and struck tristan on the back of his head.Tristan screamed out and held his head. The figure grabbed Tristan and shoved his head into a water-filled sink. Tristan tried his best and managed to elbow the figure back. He pulled his head out of the water and turned around. The figure slashed a butcher knife across Tristan's throat. He fell to the ground as the blood spilled over and created a puddle around his carcass. The figure dropped the knife and walked out of the house.
Yugi's phone rang interrupting him from reading his book. He picked up the phone and answered. The gentle smile that was on his face faded once more. Yami peered over to him and noticed the sudden change in Yugi's feelings. Yugi hung up the phone in utter shock then overcame in grief. Yami walked over to him and sat beside him on his bed.
"Tristan's dead now... murdered.." Yugi said.
"I am sorry Yugi, so sorry.."
"It's not your fault... it isn't but I can't go to another funeral..."
"I understand, and I'm sure Tristan will as well."
Yugi simply nodded and laid in bed, closing his eyes gently. Yami stayed beside him until he fell asleep. Yami sighed gently and started to remember the time he was attacked. At first Yami was in a terrified panic, but then his reflexes came to his rescue. Of course, if Yami did have the time to banish this being to the Shadow Realm he would've, but to risk his own life as well, was just too much. As much as he loved all of Yugi's friends, he didn't want to fail and lose Yugi as well. Yugi meant the world to him. He freed him from the dark. Yugi was his light, the only thing that has ever kept him going and he would do anything for Yugi...anything. Yami shut his eyes gently, in hopes of devising a plan to be rid of this vermin once and for all, before anyone else is sacrificed.
