Last Time
~Yugi and Tea started talking about their friends and what they were doing this holiday season, but it was cut short and Yugi had gone to Dr. Higuro's
office for some unknown reason.
~*~*~*~*~
Angel's Watching Over Me
Chapter 3
"Hello? Dr. Higuro?" Yugi rolled himself closer towards the assistance's desk, but realized that she was probably on her dinner break. 'I hope that the doctor didn't forget about me.' He was about to leave when someone tapped him on the shoulder.
"Yugi. Glad to see you up and about."
"Hello doctor, I was feeling better, so I decided to 'walk around' a bit." Dr. Higuro gave him a smile, then ushered him to his desk. He was a middle-aged man, tall, and skinny, for a doctor. Then he pulled out Yugi's file and searched for something. Actually, Yugi didn't know exactly why he called him here, so he decided to ask. "Um, doctor, why did you ask me to come?"
"To check up on you."
"Oh." 'Why does everyone have to worry about me?!'
"After all, you DID break half your leg. I'm jus going to send you back down to the X-Ray lab to make sure everything's in order." He began filling out a form, then handed it to Yugi. "You don't have to go now, but make sure you do before you go to sleep."
"Ok." He began to wheel away when...
"Oh, and wait 30 min. after eating before getting your X-Rays."
"Ok." He got a little farther this time, but....
"Oh, wait...that's swimming....wait an hour before getting your X-Rays, ok?" (A/N: I got no clue if that's true, jus, go along w/me here.)
"Ok." He didn't even know why he bothered trying to escape.
"Last thing Yugi...."
*Angry sigh* "YES? What is it doctor?"
"Your mom called, she wanted to make sure that you read a little every night ok?" Obviously, he didn't see the frustration in Yugi's eyes. Yugi took a deep breath.
"Yes, doctor...I promise....I'll get my X-Rays, I'll wait an hour before taking my X-Rays, and I'll read a little every night.....BYE!" He quickly rushed out before he could say anymore, then looked at the form in his hand. 'Man, he reminds me of Uncle in 'Jackie Chan Adventures'(A/N: Ya, he watches JCA). Then he wheeled his way down to the cafeteria to get some chow, he was starving.
***In the skies***
'If I knew how long it would take to get to his house, I would have hitched a ride on that passing airplane.' Yami finally spotted the youth's house and quickly descended near the trees. He withdrew his wings, and with a wave of his hand, he became transparent (A/N: Sorta ghostly, can pass through stuff and you can barely see them.) and slowly phased through the wall of the house. He quickly took in his surroundings, two couches and a TV on one side of the room, a small kitchen in the back, stairs leading up to more rooms, and a coat closet near the entrance. He floated up the stairs and came across a small fork in the hall. One side led to another closet and a room, and the other side led to a bigger room, a bathroom, and what looked to be a bigger closet containing a washer and a dryer.
Yami decided to venture to his right, into the smaller room. As he passed through the door he expected to see the youth, sound asleep in his bed, but instead he saw some clothes hanging out of the drawers, some toys and misc. in the doorway of the closet, and a note, written hastily on the floor of the room. Before taking a moment to think things through, Yami rushed over to the larger room on the opposite side of the hall, hoping that the child had been lonely and had retreated to his parents. But he only found a neatly made bed, and a few other pieces of furniture. Now Yami was really worried. He quickly searched the entire house for any sign of the child or his family, but found nothing. 'Oh man, I jus started my assignment 1, 2 hours ago and I already failed! What if I was supposed to protect this child from someone, but I took too long to get here! Or...maybe I was supposed to stop him from coming home so that he wouldn't have gotten attacked! Man.....Yanazi will NEVER let me back in heaven EvEr AGAIN!' Worse case scenarios began racing through his mind before he started to calm down and think things through. 'Ok, wait. If someone broke in...wouldn't the door be damaged?' He quickly checked the door, nothing looked broken, or picked. 'And wouldn't the kid have tried to escape if he was attacked?' He looked again....nothing from the boy's room to the door looked to be out of place, or broken from a fight. Then he remembered the note he saw in the child's room. He mentally kicked himself for not checking that sooner and floated upstairs, grabbed the note, and read it aloud.
Dear grampa,
I'm not exactly sure when you're coming home, but I jus wanted to leave you this incase you get back before I call you. I accidentally broke my leg and the paramedics came to take me to the hospital. My room might look a little messy, 'Ya, it's very messy' but they jus took some essentials. I'll call mom in a day or so, so don't worry about me. I hafta go, tell you more later, bye.
-Yugi
"Yugi? Hm, even his name is almost like mine." He put down the note and began heading out of the house. 'Well, at least I know where he is, and that he's ok, sorta.' He phased through the wall again and decided which way to go. He drew out his wings, flapped them a couple times, and he was off in a hot second. 'I jus hope I can help him.'
(A/N: I was thinking of ending the 3rd ch. here, but you guys kept saying that their too short....so I'll add in a LiTtLe more....plz review!)
***Back in the hospital***
"Aw man am I full." Yugi had jus finished a full course dinner, and was wheeling his way back up to his room. "I must of caught some of Joey's eating habits.....I' stuffed.....boy am I glad that I'm in my wheelchair instead of on my crutches right now." Slowly, he entered his room, and propped himself up in his bed. "I don't think I would have been able get back without my wheelchair." Yugi was looking at his form again, then grabbed his clock and set the alarm to 9:40 (A/N: It was 8:30 pm when he set it.). He figured that he needed an extra 10 min. since he ate so much. "Huh, now I have to find something to do until then." He was way too full to 'walk around', and truth be told, he was quite content where he was now. He glanced at his nightstand, and his eyes landed on his dueling deck. Yugi stretched his arm out as far as he could, grabbed his deck, and shuffled it. 'Well, I guess I could think of more strategies until then.'
*cough cough* "Hm?" For the first time since Yugi had entered his room, he realized that there was someone occupying the once empty bed next to his own. Slowly he reached for the cord near the nightstand, and gave it a few tugs. The sky blue curtain separating the beds squeaked as it rolled back, revealing a small boy waking from his slumber. He sleepily (A/N: I don't hink that's a real word, but it is in my sleepy sheep vocab!) opened one eye, then the other as his azure ones caught the gaze of Yugi's amethyst ones.
"Mmm, hi."
