OH YEAH! Credit for original Yugi Virus given to my older sister who writes under the penname Beescandles. She came up with Virus- but the plot, story and everything else is mine. o.O; She's got a different... view on it all though.
AN: Oh wow, missed the deadline for this one. Sorry! Well, it's a nice long chapter so I really hope you like it! I lost the list for the Victims and I might have missed one or two. I'M SORRY! :: pleads:: Please please, don't kill me! (Just tell me and you might be part of the secret plan, only because I missed you. o.o ) I've got more Yugi/Ryou goodness in here and... even a tiny version of Yami's POV. ^.^
::Yugi Virus3::
"Cute as this may be," Jou tapped Yugi on the shoulder. "Yami's at it again."
"What?" Yugi broke free from Ryou's comforting grasp to look in the doorway. Outside in the hallway, Yami was talking with another classmate. She was most likely running an errand to the office and he'd stopped her midway. That smug smirk was on his face and she was leaning against a locker, he in front of her with one arm propped up on the wall behind her head. Yugi couldn't tell what they were saying, but he knew it all too well.
He stood up, a little wobbily at first but made his way to the door, thousands of strategies running through his mind on ways to stop his Yami from doing anything, but he knew none of those plans would work.
Yami had murmered something, and it startled the girl, her face suddenly flushed and she started screaming at him wildly. Yami, half bored and half disappointed raised his hand again, muttering the curse.
What could Yugi do? He wasn't strong enough to stop him. And he fell to the ground once more, eyes wide open in horror as the girl fell to the ground, crying from an upset stomache and Yami hurried off away from the scene of the crime.
Since Yugi was recovering from the shock, Jou went to help the shaking girl up. "Hey, I'll take you to the nurse, what's your name?"
"K-Kao..." she muttered quietly and the two left. Honda stood at the doorway now, shaking his head.
"This Yugi Virus is getting out of hand. But maybe if enough people get sick, they'd call off school!" A random girl whapped the insensitive fool upside his head with her purse.
"How can you be so insensitive! It's not like we WANT to get sick or anything..." she glared hard at him.
Honda merely shrugged. "So, why don't one of you say YES for once?"
The room grew silent. Why hadn't anyone thought of that before? Honda was growing a smirk the size of a planet, obviously smug with himself. Yugi blinked, his eyes returning to normal and looked up. "Someone has to say yes."
Already most of the girls in school were taken. So obviously they weren't to be chosen to say yes. Though a few girls stepped forward to volunteer, they were worried about even getting the Yugi Virus anyway, and didn't want to go near Yami. Even if that was the one solution, it might not even work if no one had the guts.
Ryou suddenly looked up. "We really should find Yami."
Yugi raised an eyebrow. "Why? Wouldn't we want to -avoid- him?"
Ryou nodded. "True, but we need to know if he's trying to cause any more chaos around the town. We need to keep an eye on him."
Yugi agreed. Ryou was obviously right. They needed to watch Yami from a distance and help the victims that he left behind. After all, if every time he used the curse, it grew stronger, who knew if the girls would be able to get home? But that's when Yugi remembered his grandfather. Yami would go after guys too? There really wasn't any stopping him was there?
Honda, Ryou and Yugi rushed outside the classroom just as Pegasus-sama came in, drunk again. He, of course, just watched them go pass and didn't give it another thought. Instead, he waved them off and fell forward, asleep in the middle of the doorframe.
It wasn't hard to find Yami. There was a girl lying in the hallway, one arm propped up on a drinking fountain for support. Yugi knelt down beside her. "You alright?"
"Not... really..." She sniffed lightly and wiped her eyes.
"Did you see where Yami went?" Yugi asked, helping her up and handing her over to Honda. She nodded and pointed down the hallway in the direction they were heading in the first place. Yugi looked to Ryou and before they started off in that direction. "Thanks so much, um... what's your name?"
"Carrie." She answered quietly. Yugi smiled.
"Thank you, and I hope you feel better." And with that, he and Ryou ran down the hallway after Yami, hot on his trail. Honda sighed and helped Carrie to the nurse.
~*~
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!"
"You heard me." Yami pressed Seto up against the lockers hard, smirking wildly. "How about you, and me, right here and now."
"Doing... what?"
"Making love, come now Kaiba, I know you're not that dense." Yami laughed lightly and forced Seto's face down towards his in a chaste kiss. Seto pushed him away immediatly, causing the Darkness to take a few steps back. He put on a fake face of rejection, complete with the trembling lip. "But... but Seto. You, don't want to kiss me?"
"WHY THE HELL WOULD I WANT TO?" Seto was already inching towards the nearest exit. Yami's sudden interest in him was scaring him to death.
Yami grinned maliciously and stepped foward again, advancing once more. "But no one can resist me..." His breath was hot on Seto's lips and it looked as if the taller boy was about to give in when he turned his head at the last moment.
"Apparently, I can." Seto muttered.
Yami took a full step back. "Very well then." His hand raised up. Seconds later, Seto, too, was on the ground holding his mouth as his face turned slightly green.
"THERE YOU ARE!" Yami turned around to face the wrath of Yugi. He was fuming now, and it showed. Yami smirked and disappeared into the shadows. Both Ryou and Yugi searched frantically for him, but he was gone. "Damnit!" Yugi slammed his fist on the side of the locker beside him, completely unaware he was acting out of his usual caring, kind and innocent personality. Ryou attempted to comfort the little hikari but it was to no avail.
"We'll get him, don't worry. I'll help you." Ryou reassured him, smiling. Both were oblivious to Seto's moans and groans of pain and caught up in their own soft fantasy world. Yugi looked into Ryou's glorious green eyes, so full of compassion, trust and...
... and love.
The realization shocked the smaller boy. Could he? -Did- he? Yugi's eyes shone as he thought everything over. For how long? Was it true? Ryou looked suddenly startled by Yugi's withdrawal and waved a caring hand in front of him.
"Are you alright?"
Yugi snapped from his trance and nodded. "Yes, yes, I'm fine..." He trailed off for a moment, remembering the concerned look he'd just seen in Ryou's eyes. That kind and caring glance that sent shivers up and down his spine and a very unfamiliar feeling deep in his stomache.
Then suddenly, Seto's moans brought themselves into focus and the two boys looked down to see a very disgruntled Seto Kaiba on the floor. And seconds later, he vomited all over the floor. Both Yugi and Ryou turned around in disgust. Yet, that incident brought them both into the realization of Yami and they ran down the hallways, hoping to find him again.
~*~
Yami smirked and stepped out from a corner behind Yugi and Ryou. Those fools would do anything to insure peace and tranquility to everyone and everything. If only such an idea existed. He turned around to face the hall full of classrooms, full of students. Full of victims.
The bell rang and no less than a moment later students rushed from their classrooms and Seto was soon a big topic of discussion. He was still in the hallway, on the floor in a puddle of his own vomit. He deserved it, Yami huffed to himself.
A tiny marking made itself known in the brain of the Darkness and he turned his head towards it. A perfect target. There was a group of girls standing outside their lockers, all talking excitedly. Yami turned around, his coat falling behind him and strode perfectly over to their hangout.
"Well, hello hello." His voice lowered. The girls looked up at him in surprise. Of course, things spread fast around a school, and especially around girls. They were already well aware of the Yugi Virus. "Oh, don't look so frightened." Yami smiled, but even his smile was rather creepy. "What are your names?"
"Don't even know the names of your classmates?" One snapped at him. Yami looked taken aback.
"No need to be cocky!"
She brushed her hair behind her ears. "The name's Gwen." She elbowed the two girls beside her and they both said their names as well.
"Ginny."
"Crystal Lin."
"Well, well, Such beautiful names." Yami said with the hint of a trained professional. "Say, Ginny, you wouldn't mind going to say, a movie with me this weekend?"
Ginny looked shocked. "No... you're asking me out too? I would have said yes if you'd asked -before- all this madness!"
Yami sighed. So predictable. "Crystal Lin?"
Crystal Lin muttered a few odd syllables, then suddenly slapped Yami in a rage. He looked unmoved and it startled all three of them. He turned his gaze to the last of the three. "Dare I ask, Gwen?"
Gwen sighed. "Yami...Yami, Yami, Yami."She placed a hand on her hips. "Now you just asked two people out in front of me. Both refused and now you're asking me. Isn't that sinking a little low? You've been acting really desparate lately, it's embarassing."
Yami looked a little startled to have a girl stand up to him for so long. "So, babe, that's a yes or a no?"
Gwen placed an odd smirk on her face. "Well, Yami, give me time to think it over..."
They waited for a full five seconds. Yami's foot had tapped the floor a complete five times. He side-glanced up at her. "Made your decision yet?"
Gwen leaned forward. "Sure, I'd love to see a movie with you."
Yami's eyes widened. "You... you would?"
"Sure, I mean, you -are- hot."
Yami didn't know how to take this. He blinked once, and then twice. But she'd just insulted him before! What game was she trying to play? Not one person had even considered before. They all had said no. Yami was now thrown way out of proportion. Should he... accept? After all, that was what he'd been aiming for in the first place...
But those other two needed to be dealt with first. Yami held his hand up. This would be the first time he'd have used his power on two girls at once. They looked as scared as everyone else had. But what Yami hadn't calculated was that Gwen was caught in the range as well. And after all was said and done, all three of them were coughing and sneezing up a storm.
Gwen, enraged at what had happened, raised her fist and with her last amount of strength...
~*~
"OW! SHIT! LEAVE IT ALONE!" Yami kicked and screamed while Yugi tried to put ice on his face. Yami's entire left eye was black and swollen. Yugi sighed with mixed emotions. He'd found Yami lying half-broken in the middle of a deserted school hallway around where Seto had been seen last. His lip was bleeding and his eye was black.
Yugi, of course, got the scoop from a few school friends. They explained that Yami had asked a girl out, and as the plan had gone, she'd said yes. But Yami showed no mercy and gave her the Yugi Virus anyway. So, with her remaining energy, she walloped him. When he'd received the information, Yugi almost laughed out loud.
Then when the reality of the subject came to him, he was worried again. Yami wouldn't show any mercy. He'd ask both genders out and whether or not they answered, he'd give them the Yugi Virus. The one comback they had was now shattered.
Yugi, Yami and Ryou were all at Sugoroku's Game Shop, and Yami was being immature about his wounds. Yugi gave up and threw the ice pack at his taller form and sighed, exasperated.
"Any other girls that you feel like doing away with today?" Yugi growled.
Yami didn't say anything, and Ryou added.
"Or boys?"
Yami turned his head. "Do you think you know everyone that I've taken?"
Ryou and Yugi gave each other confused looks. "How could you have taken anyone else? You've been knocked out..." Yugi argued. Yami just chuckled.
"I took a little trip to the nurnse's office earlier to check up on my victims. And you'll never guess who I found there! Three perfectly healthy people!" Yami laughed loudly.
Ryou and Yugi exchanged worried looks and at the same time: "Jou! Honda! and..."
"You got it. They were there with two other girls talking about something. Doesn't matter anyway. I think Their names were Michuu and Karly... " Yami just shrugged, "It's not like I keep track of them anyway." Still, laughing he stood up and went to his room. Yugi sniffed again. Tears came so easily to him.
"The only defense I could think of... shattered." He held up his hand to wipe away a tear that was already falling down his cheek, but another hand beat him to it. Surprised, Yugi looked up to see Ryou, the concerned look back in his eyes. The silver haired hikari delicately wiped the tears from Yugi's eyes.
"Shhh, Don't cry now, we still have one more defense." he chided very softly. Yugi's heart was beating wildly, and Ryou's hand now rested on the side of his cheek, cupping Yugi's face with his hand.
"We... do?"
"Yes," Ryou slowly let go of Yugi and picked up his backpack. "We do."
TBC!
