A Beckoning Soul
Anthy: Chapter 8 is evil.
Anshi: I know. Roses. Roses are pretty.
Anthy: I know. And they'll play a part in the next couple chapters.
Anshi: Yep.
Kenshin: You should be off.
Anthy: Ah! *leaves*
Kenshin: We've gotta write.
Anshi: Or pierce our tongues.
Kenshin: Later.
Anshi: Okay...
Kenshin: Aren't you gonna write?
Anshi: Okay.

A Beckoning Soul
Chapter 8: Punishment
If you are
Lost in your way
Deep in
An awesome story
Don't be in
Doubt and stray
Cling to your
Lonesome folly
Now you're
Too close to the pain
Let all the rain go further
Come back
And kiss me
In vain
Mother
Do not bother
Hotaru and the other angel masters hung their heads as they waited in silence for a moment. Anthy stood her ground. She was ready to take what punishment. She had seen them all.
"Anthy, by the direct orders of the Almighty..."
Anthy stood still, waiting...
"You are to be imprisoned in the red shrine for 1,000 years."
Anthy froze. She never knew about this one. It was never used. Not even if an angel killed. Hisui had delivered the punishment, the mellow and caring wind master. Anthy turned and she and Yami held onto each other. Neither wanted to leave. Two other angels, donning red armor, appeared. They grabbed hold of Anthy and forced her away from Yami Yugi.
"Anthy!"
"Yami!!"
Anthy tried in vain to break free. But her efforts were futile, her struggles draining her strength. Yami sank to his knees as she vanished from his sight. The angel masters were beginning to disperse, all except Kanoe. Yami's hand had begun bleeding excessively again. Kanoe noticed this. He ripped off a part of his shirt and tried it around the pharaoh's hand. But the wound began to burn. Yami didn't care. The only pain he had was in his heart.
"Yami...I...I'm sorry..." Yugi said.
Yami stood up, head down.
"I..."
(Yugi! Can't you think of anything to say to your yami?!)
"I never wanted this to happen to you."
But something inside Yami clicked. And he was no longer in control of his emotions.
"Shut up Yugi!!" He whipped around, striking Yugi in the eye, leaving a bruise.
"Yami!" Bakura shouted.
Yami crumpled to the ground.
"What...what have I done...?" He whispered.
He had just gotten Yugi to trust him again. Now he shattered that in his rage. He had destroyed everything that Anthy had worked to create.
What else could he do?
He ran.

Yami ran until his lungs and his legs screamed out in pain. He toppled off the concrete wall and fell onto the sand. It hurt...and he deserved it. There was a rush of feathers, and Yami looked up. There stood an angel with a ripped shirt. Kanoe. He helped Yami to his feet and looked him in the eye.
"Do you really want to get Anthy back that badly?" Kanoe asked, glancing at the cut in Yami's side, then at the broken glass he had fallen on.
"YES! If it'll bring her back then I'll do it." Yami shouted, tears streaming from his eyes.
Yami found himself on a golden path, with roses on each side. Kanoe's voice echoed in the dark void.
"If you want to get her back, rescue her."
That was it.
Yami was off like a rocket.
