Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh end of story.

Notes: Um . . . I am sick but I still go to school . . . go figure. Anyway, sorry I haven't been updating but with midterms I have been super busy and with basketball everyday then I get sick boy oh boy this is getting worse and worse. I have a feeling that it might just be exhaustion?????? Oh well, I am going to try and get another chapter out.

Last time:

Looking over to the small boy's bed he saw him sleeping peacefully but then a thought struck him . . . what if he never woke up!?!?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Serenity noticed the look in Yami's eyes, they showed doubt. She walked over to Yami and placed a comforting hand on his shoulder, "Don't doubt that he will be fine, just have faith in him," she said, he looked at her and gave her a tired smile.

"Yami, you look pretty whipped, maybe you should get some sleep, we'll watch over Yugi for you," Ryou said. Yami nodded slightly, he walked over to the corner and got the chair, and he then pulled it up to Yugi's bed and took a seat.

Yami laid his had back and was soon sleeping. "Poor Yami, he is really torn up about this, he is really upset. He blames himself even though it wasn't his fault," Serenity said.

"Something's happen and not everything can be fixed, unfortunately he had to learn this the hard way. The worst part is it's not over yet," Seto said looking over to his sleeping brother.

"I know, and I feel sorry for Yug, he has been threw so much and its jus' not gettin' any better is it?" Joey said.

"Unfortunately I have a feeling that we stumbled onto something way bigger then we think. This has gone from a simple kidnapping to shadow realms and underground organizations!" Seto said.

"And unfortunately for all of us we are all sucked in now. I don't think that we could get out if we wanted to. They want Yugi; they didn't get him yet did they. I think that will be coming after him, we better be on alert," Serenity said.

"I agree with you but I don't think they will be coming within anytime soon. I have a feeling that our escape was way to easy. I mean there was a helicopter practically waiting for us!! Something is up and it isn't good, that's for sure. They hardly had anyone in the base, I have a feeling that they paid a visit to our home town," Seto said.

"Oh dear, we left Faye home with a dog sitter, you don't think they would hurt them do you?" Serenity said.

"I don't think so Serenity, I mean do ya think that they are that heartless?" Joey said.

"I wouldn't put it past them because what they did to Mokuba wasn't human," Seto said.

"I wonder," Ryou said but didn't finish was he was going to say, he was caught in thought.

"What Ryou?" Serenity asked.

"Well yes, the escape was rather easy and they did practically give us our ride to the hospital. I am sure they knew that Mokuba required medical help, so then why is more or less the question. If they wanted Yugi, why not take him while he was hurt and unable to call monsters. Do they even find us as a threat? I have a feeling that this goes way beyond what we think. This was planned; our whole escape was planned by them. I guess then another question that is left unanswered is who the hell is the lady that disguised herself as Yugi's mother?" Ryou said.

"Well Yami seemed to know the lady; he called her Houko I think. He seemed to have past with her as well, she called him pharaoh. There was another name he mentioned during this fight, as we could call it. He mentioned a girl named Eiko; she was killed her in the past I think. I'm not sure what Yami's relationship with the girl was but I don't think he was happy about her death," Serenity said.

"I guess, well it's getting late. We should ask Yami about it in the morning. Good night," Seto said as they got ready to fall asleep. Joey and Serenity went to the couch, being brother and sister they didn't mind sharing. Seto took a chair near Mokuba, Yami had a chair near Yugi and Ryou took the only other chair by the door.

Later on that night Yugi woke up. It was dark in the room and he let out a whimper when he tried to move. This woke Yami up and he smiled seeing Yugi awake.

"How do you feel aibou?" Yami asked concerned.

"Well my chest hurts and it hurts to breathe but I am okay I guess. Yami what happened back there?" Yugi asked.

Yami turned away; he had hoped Yugi wouldn't want to know. His past was a painful one; his hands were covered in the blood of many.

"Yami are you okay?" Yugi asked at his sudden silence.

"Yes aibou, I am fine I was just reminiscing on my past. I guess you wanted me to tell you of the one that dressed up as your mother," Yami said.

"Yes, it was nice to see her again, even though it wasn't her, I missed the look on her face and her sent, I missed it a lot Yami," Yugi said, he had tears in his eyes.

"Come now aibou, don't cry. She wasn't your mother; she was an old enemy of mine. Houko, she killed many in her time including Eiko," Yami said with a heartbreaking look on his face.

"Yami, who was Eiko?" Yugi asked, his head hurt but he wanted to know.

"She was a slave. I loved her like a sister, after I saved her from being a tavern whore she came to live with me in the palace. I sort of took her under my wing, she was so sweet. But then one day the tomb robber known and Bakura and Houko took her from my palace. I tried to save her, I really did Yugi but my shadow powers were spent and I had to wait a day before we could start the search. If only I had been stronger, if only I had gone threw my exhaustion she would have lived to her full of life!" Yami exclaimed his eyes filled with tears. Yugi painfully made an attempt to comfort his crying Yami.

"I'm sorry Yami, I had no idea," Yugi said, he could feel the pain through their link.

Yami dried his tears and smiled at his sleepy aibou, "You should get some sleep I can tell you are tired," Yami said.

"You are too, sleep with me please?" Yugi asked moving over.

"Okay Yugi," Yami said, soon they were both asleep.
