A Beckoning Soul

Chapter Six: Learn

Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
Closer to where I started
Than chasing after you

I'm falling even more in love
With you
Letting go of all I held on to
I'm standing here
Until you make me move
Hanging by a moment here
With you


"Yugi...I..."

"Go away."

"I..."

"..."

"I want to--!"

"I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU EVER AGAIN!!"


Yami walked along the cold empty street as the sun crept over the horizon. Maybe he should back off for a while. But the look in Yugi's eyes told his heart otherwise. Where was Anthy when he needed her? He had her CD in his CD player. Yami slipped the headphones on and selected some random track. He sat down on a park bench and stared up at the fading stars as the music poured into his ears.

"I like things that are so good
You are so so good
I like you
But
I am the underdog
I am the last in line
Don't be the enemy
Don't stand in back of me
Freezing
Warring
Wondering where I'll be
On my birthday
You kissed me in a dream last night
How do I?
I wouldn't know
Cause
I am the underdog..."

Yami felt a tear slip out of his eye.

"Stop crying." He said quietly to himself.

He didn't notice Malik watching him briefly before slipping out of sight.




"You should forgive him." Ryou said, trying to sound as caring as he could.

"I don't want to see him ever again." Yugi said, sitting down on the couch.

"You should."

"I won't."

Malik walked in and sat parallel to Yugi. Yugi broke down and asked.

"How is he?"

Malik averted his gaze.

"He's falling apart."

"He what?!"

"He challenged Kanoe to an angel battle."

"That was yesterday. Who won?"

"Hotaru."

Anthy cursed. She was so close to learning the Diiger Bolt. Now she had to try and patch up her learning. She would go the next morning...but she needed help. And she went to Hisui.

"Hisui! In need help with my you know what."

Hisui smiled.

"What do you need help with?" She asked, putting her hand on Anthy's shoulder.

"I need to be able to get within striking distance of the gate."

"I'll get you to the top of the gate and you'll have to go from there."

"Anthy!"

The two turned to see Hotaru. He looked furious. Anthy stood her ground as her hands were engulfed in a sheet of ice.

Hotaru grabbed her wrist and pulled her close to him. Anthy pulled away.

"Forget the Diiger Bolt. Forget that boy you left back on earth. You future is here. In heaven."

Anthy pulled away and spread her wings. She wanted to get as far away from him as possible. She spotted Kanoe laying face up in the water. He was injured and barely conscious. Anthy picked him up and tried to move him closer to the sun (for that's all angels need, sunlight and clean air). Her wings strained to support the weight of two angels.

Her wings couldn't support them, and she tumbled down towards the water.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Anthy threw herself under Kanoe, to break his fall. She felt him twist around and pull her up.

"You suspect too much." He said, winking.

Anthy smiled.

"I'm leaving tomorrow. I wanna finish."

"But you have."

"Mew?"

Kanoe patted Anthy on the head.

"You'll figure out on your own."

Anthy: I have such an evil plan for the next chapter.

Yami & Kanoe: *gulp*

Anthy: Yami and Yugi! Weeee!

Anshi: Hotaru comes into this plan too, right?

Anthy: Yep.

All: *gulp*

Anthy: Review and make me happy!
