Wow I posted Chapter 6 like a couple of hours ago and reviews have hit 70!
My Harry Potter and the Influenza story got like 7; I didn't think it would
get any. Since I'm in such a good mood I decided to start Chapter 7, I
won't finish it tonight homework but maybe it will be up tomorrow.
Chapter-Seven The Arrival
They reached to gold plated doors, and then stopped.
"Should we knock" said Tea.
"I guess so" replied Bakura.
Since Yugi was too short to reach the knocker, Yami strode up to the giant doors and knocked three times. Immediately after his hand left the door they opened but no one appeared to have opened it.
"I guess we just go in" said Tristan.
They all proceeded to the marble room awaiting them, there didn't appear to be anyone waiting for them either.
"Now what?" said Joey.
"I don't know" said Yugi "I guess all we can do is wait."
They waited for what seemed like hours, when eventually their patience was rewarded, someone in a suit walked up to them.
"Hello, Pegasus has been expecting you right this way please."
He led them to the right then down a long corridor that just didn't seem to end.
"Jeeze how big is this place" said Joey as they continued to walk.
Then the man stopped in the middle of two doors.
"Here are your rooms, the battle between Yugi Mutou and Maximillion Pegasus will begin at 10am tomorrow morning.
"Why isn't it today?" asked Yami Bakura.
"Since he was expecting you to arrive last night, he had scheduled a meeting for his company today so I'm afraid you'll have to wait until tomorrow. If you need anything don't hesitate to call on the phones in your rooms. Now if that is all, I'll be leaving now." And with that he strode off in the direction they came.
"What do we do now?" asked Tea.
"I guess we just go into the rooms and find something to do" said Bakura.
Joey wasted no time he opened the door to the first room and went in search of the phone to get food.
The rooms we're huge, they each had their own marvelous bathroom and each room had two king size beds.
"If this is how Pegasus treats his enemies, I wonder how he treats his friends" said Tristan as he marveled at the rooms.
As the rest of them were getting settled, Yami sat down on one of the beds and put a hand to head. Yugi noticed this right away and walked over to him.
"How are you feeling?" he asked.
"I'm fine" said Yami as he immediately took the hand away.
"I don't think so, your cheeks are flushed, you look pale and exhausted" Yugi kindly pointed out "Plus I've been sick for quite awhile now I would think I know what I'm talking about."
"OK I admit it I'm not feeling very good, but it will pass you are the one who is in need of worry. I think it wise that you get some rest Yugi you look dead on your feet" seeing Yugi's face after he finished his statement "And don't worry I'll be fine."
Yugi didn't reply he had to admit, he was exhausted and starting to feel light headed. He got in to the bed on the other side of where Yami was sitting.
"Guy's I think we should reside to the other room, Yugi needs his rest" said Yami as he exited through the door connecting the two rooms.
The rest of them followed.
"I don't get how Yugi can win this duel in the state that he is in" said Yami "I mean look at him, he's trying to hide it but I can tell he is in pain and that his fever has risen ever since we left the house."
"I know what you mean, he is just so sick wouldn't it be better if Pegasus gave him the antidote before the duel?" said Tea.
"Ya but I highly doubt that is going to happen, Yugi being sick is the only thing ensuring his victory" explained Yami Bakura.
"I wish there was at least, some way we could help him" said Tea.
"I don't think there is, we can only be there for him cheering him on" said Joey.
"Hey wait, Yami you can communicate with him maybe you could help that way" said Tristan.
This is what Yami had been afraid of; he remembered the time when he had tried to communicate with Yugi, when he got his glass of water. At the time he thought it was just Yugi's high fever blocking him out but he wasn't so sure anymore.
"Um . . . ya we could try that."
"You don't sound too sure of yourself, what's wrong?" asked Bakura.
"Oh its nothing, I just had a little trouble connecting with him a few days ago I'm sure it was just the fever, I'll try now."
They all went silent and let Yami concentrate.
"Yugi? Can you hear me?"
Nothing.
"Please Yugi, answer me."
"Y . . . ami"
"Why is our connection so bad?"
"Y . . . a . . . mi?"
Just as Yami was about to try again, a searing pain shot through his head, before he had time to think he was on the floor clutching his head in agony.
"Yami? What's wrong? What's happened?" said Tea her voice shaking in concern.
Yami couldn't answer the pain was so intense he was losing consciousness. Tea bent down to help him, but before her hand touched him his body fell limp as unconsciousness overtook him.
"Well don't just stand there, help me get him on to a bed" said Tea.
The boys did as they were told; they lifted Yami's limp body up and put him in the nearest bed.
"What happened?" said Joey as he pulled the covers up over Yami's still form
"I have no idea, he looked like something was hurting him" said Tea.
Bakura put his hand to Yami's forehead to check if there was a fever.
"Tea, he's burning up."
"Oh not now, why is this happening?" said Tea as she went to get a cool cloth.
She came back and placed the wet cloth on his burning forehead.
"That is all I can do until he wakes up, I don't think we should tell Yugi about this just yet, he has enough on his shoulders" said Tea.
"Ya I agree" said Bakura.
"Well what now?" said Joey.
"Well I'm gonna stay here and watch Yami, I think someone should watch Yugi" said Tea as she positioned herself in the chair beside Yami.
"Tristan and I'll go" volunteered Joey.
"Yami Bakura and I'll go look around" said Bakura.
*
It wasn't until dusk that Yami opened his eyes, and when he did he was met with Tea's concerned face.
"How are you feeling?" she said as she dabbed his sweltering forehead with a cloth.
"Much better thanks to you, but my head still hurts."
"What happened?"
"I don't really know, I was trying to contact Yugi but the connection seemed bad, and then before I knew it pain hit me like a ton of bricks" Yami explained.
"You should have told us you were still feeling awful."
"I know, but I didn't think at the time, Yugi . . ." he trailed off.
"Yes I know Yugi is sick, but that doesn't mean that because you aren't as sick as him that you are fine."
"Well you know now, so never mind I'm sure I'll be better soon."
"I hope so, I hate seeing you two like this. Are you hungry at all? Joey ordered some food earlier."
"No I don't feel that hungry, but thanks anyways. How's Yugi doing?"
"Um Yugi . . ."
Tea's answer scared Yami.
"What happened!?" Yami exclaimed as he quickly sat up, dizziness washed over him and he fell back on the pillows.
"Well his fever went up, he was having a nightmare, and then he fell back asleep. But I don't know how he is going to duel Pegasus he can barley think straight and if his fever gets any higher . . ." Tea cut off.
"Yugi" was all Yami said before he dashed out of the room and into Yugi's.
Joey and Tristan immediately got out of the way, and Yami saw his lighter half tossing and turning in his bed, his face was covered in sweat and he looked so pale.
"Yugi? How could this of happened?" said Yami.
Joey put his hand comfortingly on Yami's shoulder "There's nothing you could have done, he just shouldn't have gotten out of bed."
"I know . . ."
Tristan noticed that Yami wasn't looking far off from Yugi, his face was pale accept his cheeks were red, and he seemed to be having trouble staying still he was swaying slightly on his feet.
"Yami I think you should go lie down, you don't look so good."
"I'm fine Yugi is the one you should be worrying about."
"Yes I know I am worrying about Yugi, but there is nothing we can do for him now. But you, we can, you need to rest. Yugi wouldn't want you out of bed and you know it."
"Fine, but if he wakes I want to be the first to know" Yami said as he took refuge in the bed opposite Yugi.
Tea came in, and once she saw her two friends sleeping in bed tears threatened to fall but she held them back.
"How are they?"
"Well Yugi seems to be stable for the moment, but I don't know what to say about Yami" said Tristan.
Just then the two Bakura's returned.
"What happened?" asked Bakura when he saw the gloomy looks on his friends faces.
Tristan and Tea updated them on the recent events.
"What do we do now, Yugi can't duel like this" said Bakura once she finished.
"I know we'll have to ask Pegasus" said Tea.
"No good doing that today, I already asked when he'd be back" said Joey "They said he'd be back tomorrow around 9, and the match is at 10 that doesn't leave that much time, considering how big this place is!"
"I guess we'll have to wait until tomorrow" said Tristan.
"I guess so" said Bakura.
"So what did you guys find?" asked Joey.
"Absolutely nothing, every door in this place is locked" explained Bakura.
"Well in the mean time, I suggest we get some sleep" said Yami Bakura.
"Ya it is pretty late" said Tea.
Joey took the place beside Yugi; Tristan did the same but with Yami. Yami Bakura and Bakura took a bed in the other room and Tea took one to herself in the same room as the Bakura's.
*
The next morning Bakura was first awake; he got up and looked at the clock it read 9:40. He turned over and shook Yami Bakura.
"What is it?" said his Yami.
"Its 9:41! We've gotta be at the match in 19 minuets" he said as he leapt out of bed and woke Tea.
"What's wrong Bakura?"
"We've got to be at the match in 19 minuets" he explained as he dashed into the other room.
Tea and Yami Bakura followed; they had Tristan and Joey up with 16 minuets to spare.
"I hate to wake them" said Tea.
"But we've got to" explained Joey.
Tea bent down and shook Yami gently, his eyes fluttered open immediately.
"How'd you do that?" said Joey in amazement.
"Woman's touch" was all she said "We've got to be at the match in 14 minuets do you think you can get out of bed?" asked Tea.
"Yes I'm fine, go wake Yugi" he said as he sat up.
Tea walked over and shook Yugi; she got the same response with Yugi as she did with Yami.
"What is it Tea?" he said.
"You've got to be at your match in 13 minuets" she explained.
Joey and Tristan helped Yami out of bed, Yami Bakura and Bakura did the same with Yugi. They slowly but surely made their way down the hall and went back to where they came in. Just as they thought Pegasus's assistant was waiting for them.
"Right this way please" He said as he led them to the left and down a similar corridor as he did before, but this time they went to the end and he stopped at a door with a Pegasus on it.
"Go on in, Pegasus is waiting for you.
"Thanks" said Yugi as he used Bakura's arm for support.
"Are you sure about this Yugi? You don't look so good" said Tea.
"I have to, Yami's life depends on it as well as my own so lets go" Yugi said with the bravest face he could muster.
The Pegasus split apart and they were allowed passage to the dueling arena.
"I've been waiting for you Yugi-boy"
And that is the end of Chapter 7 sorry about the cliffhanger, but hay all books are like that if they weren't why would you keep reading? I can't believe I actually finished this the next day but hey. The next chapter will obviously be the duel and that chapter might take a little longer I'm not too good with making up a battle with cards, if anyone has any suggestions I'd be glad to hear them the_perfect_soldier04@hotmail.com. Thanks for reading Please Review!
