Maximillion's thoughts as he looked at little Yugi.
This boy here. My nephew, my blood. What a tantalizingly, sickening thought.
He looked up at his brother, and his eye narrowed in anger.
It's all his fault! Why was I cursed with such misfortune. The worst part is I can't even read Jei's mind. All I see is wounds, blood, and thoughts that shake even my core.
He looked back at Yugi and spoke, " Crying again? Don't those tears ever stop? And I thought that after your run in with your alter ego you would have gained a little backbone. Make your move!"
Yugi was currently in a dueling arena in the shadow realm, dueling Pegasus. He had refused to let his alter ego out and that was the only thing he was grateful for. He currently was looking at his deck and his hands were smeared with a red substance that stung.
He felt another surge in his form, and almost cursed his millennium puzzle's protective streak. " I'll be fine, pharaoh." He whispered, more to himself than to the other.
Pegasus twirled his hair idily, " Make your move, Yugi boy." He said, smiling mavolently.
" Sure." Yugi whispered, and he threw his summon skull in attack mode. He then yelled out, his voice strong, but his eyes were filled with fear. " Summon Skull attack the Toon Alligator!"
The attack hit dead on, and Pegasus screamed, not from the after blast but from the immediate pain. He stood at his spot, gasping for breath, one of his lungs had been sliced, and he felt miserable. He slowly stood up straighter than before. His eye was angry. He didn't like the pain.
" I'm going to make you pay for that." He whispered. Then little Yugi screamed, the card Pegasus had drawn over did his skull and the attack of 2900 helped his life points fall to zero.
The two hour duel had finally ended, with Pegasus the winner. The seemingly old man staggered down from his platform, clutching his chest and wheezing. He looked over to his opponent's area and a smile formed on his face. Yugi was laying on the ground, a black, bottomless area that was the shadow realm. His face was white and he was not breathing. "That'll teach you to know your cards a bit more, and to become more than what you appear." Pegasus whispered. His eye widened when he heard what he thought was impossible.
"I already know how!" Yugi whispered as he blacked out from the pain.
"Giving him a lesson, brother. Tsk, tsk. He knows the rules and knows how to keep it up, he might loose the match, but he's one of the few that can stay alive. He won't die so easily, he has my blood and stamina, after all." Jei said as he leaned on a block of wood that floated aimlessly around.
" Then what do you suppose I should teach him?" The millennium eye keeper asked as he looked with ditrust at the dark stained man that stood before him. Jei's mouth widened with dark fun, " Oh, just how to make that Puzzle useful."
" The-the Millennium Puzzle!"
" Yes, this." He said, holding it up. His block had passed by Yugi, and it had been easy picking. He then roughly shook it around, and threw it out into the abyss that was it's realm.
" I wonder if the boy can find it."
The castle:
" Man, I can't believe that we got lost again. Why did that smug idiot want to split up? What a dumb idea." Said Tristian as he trekked through the halls with Bakura behind him.
" He is pretty dumb, he can't use my alter's shadow powers, nor can he do anything useful if he is protecting that whinny little brother of his." Bakura said, as he watched his card of change get a once loyal guard to turn against Pegasus, and open the door leading to a arena. Tristian's left eyebrow shot up, and he asked, " What do you mean, about Mokuba?"
" Just that Kaiba would be mostly a hindrance if he has to watch out for the safety of his brother so much." Bakura said.
Tristian said, " Hmm. I guess so. Anyways we got to go find Yugi, maybe this door will lead to a few clues." Tristian opened the door, and saw dark, red spots on the floor.
" Blood."
There was a puddle.
Krylancelo note: Could it be Yugi's or could it be Jei's. Joey and the others don't have help so it might just be theirs. See ya! Please review!
