Light Gone Forever

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh and the holidays are over and I still don't own it.

Notes: Well, sleep, no longer and option, I have sort of gotten another job. I have one at a restaurant, which is where I will be spending my New Years Eve. But now I am babysitting as well, it brings in the money though. I am tired, what's new, and I think I am getting the flu or something but hey, it never stopped me before. I had my first Varsity start yesterday and I scored three points, big freaking deal, it really didn't matter though because we won. I have another game Monday, I hope we win!

"Who invited you?" Yami asked venomously.

"I wasn't invited I came on my own free will to speak to Yugi," Seto said, he spat the words back to Yami in the same manor that Yami had spoke to him in.

"As you can see Yugi is UNABLE to speak!" Yami yelled, he was getting his mind off how worried he was for Yugi.

Yugi wanted to tell them to stop but he was too weak to even move his lips a little more then allowing Serenity spoon the warm broth down his throat. He wasn't hungry but he couldn't exactly tell her to stop. All of a sudden Yugi had an idea.

/Yami, can you here me?/ Yugi asked through their mental link.

Yami, who was still fighting with Seto, heard something in the back of his mind. He recognized the voice of one belonging top Yugi. He got what he said and quickly replied:

//Yes aibou I can hear you, what is wrong?// Yami asked.

/I want you to stop fighting with Seto for one, and can you tell Serenity to stop feeding me, I'm not hungry/ Yugi said, it was weak but Yami caught the important parts.

"Stop this," he said suddenly. Seto stopped his verbal attack at once.

"What?" he asked.

"Yugi wants us to stop it right now," Yami said, "and he would like you to stop feeding him he says he isn't hungry."

Serenity stopped at once, Yugi's body seemed to relax. Serenity got up to put the broth away and get the thermometer.

She was soon back with a little stick in her hand. She lifted Yugi's head a little bit and placed the stick in his mouth. She looked back to Yami who looked worried.

"I am just taking the temperature of his body nothing to worry about," she told him, Yami looked a bit more relaxed. Soon after she put it in she took it out. She read what it said out loud, "Well, it isn't normal but I can't seem to tell exactly what it is, my eyes aren't too good, Seto could you?" she asked handing it over.

"You trust him over me, especially with my aibou's life?" Yami asked, his voice was a bit cold to her.

"I am sorry Yami, but do you know HOW to read a thermometer?" she asked.

"Well, no, I guess not," he said, his eyes fell back onto Yugi's body. He looked like his breathing was labored; Yami's mouth formed a frown.

"This isn't good, this reads 104.5," Seto said, his face was very serious.

"I am going to go and call the family doctor, hopefully he can make a house call, Yugi is in no condition to be moved at all," Serenity said getting up, Seto stopped her with a hand on her shoulder.

"Don't bother, I will take care of it," he said pulling out his cell phone. He dialed some numbers in and held it up to his ears.

"Seto Kaiba here, James, send Dr. Lance over right away," he ordered, after giving the directions he hung the phone up.

"You didn't have to do that, we didn't ask for your help," Yami said, his eyes did not meet Seto's.

"Yugi, well, he tried to help me and I didn't take him seriously. This is serious so now I will help him," Seto said simply. Seto looked back to Yugi, the boy looked really bad, and he looked like he was loosing a battle for his health. Lance might take to long and Yugi needed something now!

"Let me look Yugi over, I might be able to make him comfortable," Seto said taking a step forward.

"No way in hell, I would trust Anubis over you!" Yami yelled and placed himself in front of Seto, between him and Yugi.

"Would you rather him die!" Seto yelled at him. Somehow, something hit Yami and he slowly stepped aside, he did, however, keep a VERY close eye on Seto as he examined Yugi.

Seto already knew about the fever, but he needed his other symptoms. As he sat on the bed Yugi shivered, Seto thought to himself.

'Well he has chills, what else,' he looked Yugi over again, He could tell his breathing was irregular and rapid, also he noted that when he inhaled you could hear a wheezing sound.

Seto gently pulled the blanket back, he could see through Yugi's shirt that his rib muscles retracted with each and every breath. Yami frowned at the way Seto was touching Yugi but held himself back.

As Seto tried to continue Yugi's little body was racked with a painful cough. Seto could hear a wheeze that went along with his cough.

"Well, I think this might be pneumonia," Seto said calmly, "He isn't showing all of the signs but he has quite a few of them."

"Is that bad?" Yami asked.

"Yes it is," Serenity said to him, she knew it wasn't reassuring but he had to know the truth.

"He needs to be awake for the other symptoms to occur so for now I would say he is pretty sick," Seto said stepping away from Yugi's body.

Ten minutes later Seto's doctor came and confirmed their fears, Yugi had a case of pneumonia. Yami's heart was in his throat, not only did he not notice this he had a feeling that it was partly his fault. He had forgotten something rather important and he had remembered it when the doctor told him how Yugi's case contracted. The thing that caught his attention was when the doctor mentioned that exhaustion was part cause.

Yami knew it was his fault, He had forgotten to use his own energy when he was out in the real world, and he had been feeding off of Yugi's diminishing energy. For them to spilt bodies Yugi needed to give a lot of his energy, no wonder he had been to weak lately.

Right after the doctor left Yami returned to the puzzle, he didn't want to leave Yugi alone, especially with Seto but he knew he had to.

When he was in there he decided to check up on Yugi threw their soul rooms. When he walked into Yugi's he noticed the extreme change in the temperature. It was so hot in their, what happened to make Yami smile though, was the innocent things in his soul room.

"I promise Yugi, I will help you through this!" Yami stated.
