-Start Chapter 3-

Trio stirred. Yami watched her carefully from the other side of the room. He had carefully wrapped her in bandages, though he feared she might die from loss of blood. After all, that arrow...he shuddered at the thought.

Trio's eyes slowly fluttered open. The room...where was she? The room was blue. Everything in it, except for a large window to her right, was blue. So blue, in fact, it almost scared her. She heard movement to her left, but when she turned her head to see what it was, she felt a jolting pain in her chest.

Yami saw Trio move. He walked up to her, hoping she was still able to talk. That arrow could have done more damage than he thought. He shook his head, hoping for the best.

Trio did not dare turn her head again when she saw a shadowed figure come closer to the bed she was laying on. She was confused, wondered why she was...wherever she was...and WHO she was. The figure took another step. Trio could not sit up. She felt like she was strapped down to the bed. Another step. Trio could barely breathe, she was so afraid. Her chest, filled with fear, got another sudden pain.

"Trio?" she heard a voice say. The figure stepped into the light. He was tall, at least from what Trio could see. Of course, she was lying down, and her judgment of distance wasn't at its full potential. Besides being tall, the person was most likely male. He had spiky blond hair and beautiful eyes. "Trio?" he repeated. That charming deep voice, along with those eyes, made her relax instantly.

"Is that my name? Who are you? Where am I? What am I doing here?" Trio asked. |If she knew, she wouldn't have asked,| Yami thought.

"Yes. Your name is Trio. I'm Yami. You are here because you got shot by an arrow." Trio winced. So that's what had happened.

"Okay, I'll go with that. But where's 'here?'" Trio questioned, then tried to move again, but found she still couldn't. "And why can't I move?"

Yami sighed. "I had to tie you down to stop you from squirming. If it's hurting you that badly, I can take it off," came his gentile reply. It became clear to Trio that Yami wasn't going to answer, so she let it go. Yami bent down to take off the ties, which were just strips of linen, allowing Trio to move a bit more freely.

Someone from outside poked a head in. "Is she going to be okay, Yami?" someone asked. The voice sounded like Yami's, only a few years younger. The silhouette looked almost the same, too. "I don't know, Yugi." Yami answered the newcomer as if they were brothers.

Trio sat up, only to have the sheets fall away from her torso. Gasping, she grabbed for the sheet again to cover up her near-nakedness. Trio clutched the sheet with her right hand, supporting her weight with her left. Whoever had put...bandages...on her chest had left off her shirt! It was indecent to have two BOYS in the room, and her to have only her bra and jeans on! The pain flared up again, and she had to lie down, wincing.

Yami moved closer. "Go to sleep," he said gently, having thought to change the bandages again. Trio nodded carefully and relaxed, drifting off into an uneasy sleep. "Yugi," Yami called softly.

"Yes?"

"You can call that ambulance now."
