Yami's Goodbye

Tech

*Beep.........Beep*

"Oh Yami," sobbed Yugi.

"Hey dun' worry bout' it Yug, He'll get better....." Joey said, a little unsure

of what he was saying.

/Yami why are you in the hospital, why did you have to be diagnosed with,

Leukemia? I didn't even know it was possible for someone,

or something, like you to even get sick, as sick as this....../

//Yu...gi//

/YAMI!?/

//Don't......w-worry about.....me...... You have......to be st-strong, strong

enough......for the b-both .......of us.....//

/But...but how can I be strong if my strength is gone? Yami you are my

strength....../

//Yugi.........I want.......to speak.........to all.......of you.....with my......voice//

/All right/

"Hey Bakura, YamiB, Joey, Tristan, Tea, Could you, come here Yami wants to talk...."

"Coming!"

*Yami begun to fold something*

*Blip......Beep........blip.......Beep*

Yami set down a paper crane then spoke up, his voice hoarse and breathy,

"I don't......want a..........s-sappy.........con-conversation, but I am.........afraid

that.....I don't have.......much time left....."His eyes dropped to look at his

hands. Tristan looked at the floor, Bakura just stood there in disbelief,

YamiBakura set his hand on Bakura's shoulder in effort to comfort him.

Joey's eyes began to water, Tea burst out in tears, and Yugi gripped Yami's

hand, "NO!" he yelled, standing up from the bedside.

"Yami, you can't just give up like this! I'm sure you'll get better! I won't

believe this! I WON'T!" Yugi turned and ran out the door knocking Tristan

down, tears flowing down his face. He raced down the hall and out of the

hospital. He fell to his knees, gasping for air. It was a warm night, though

the wind blew with the force of a tornado. Yugi pulled out his cards from his

pocket.

"Tell me, what does the future hold for Yami?" He pulled out a card, Doma

the Angel of Silence{1} This fairy rules over death, and administers it when

necessary, oh no......" he slid the card back into the deck and put them away.

*Thunk*

Yugi's grandpa walked over to Yugi and set a hand on his shoulder. Yugi

looked up at him, "Grandpa!" then jumped to his feet and hugged him,

sobbing.

"Grandpa! Yami's gonna die!"

"Shh...Yugi calm down, don't loose faith."

"But the cards said so!" Grandpa gave him a odd look.

"I drew Doma the Angel of Silence!"

"Do you believe in the cards?"

"Yes...."

"Were you thinking negative thoughts? The heart of the cards respond to what

you are feeling."

*sniff*

"C'mon Yugi....let's go see Yami."

Tea leaned down and embraced Yami, still crying. Yami surprisingly

returned the hug. Yami let go and grabbed his Millennium Puzzle, staring at

it. Yugi and his grandpa knocked then entered, Yugi's Grandpa was holding a

bag full of something. Yugi still had tears in his eyes.

"I'm sorry for acting that way..."

"Tha-that's ok....." Yami sadly stated.

"Yami, everyone has been making these for you, we know that you read

Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes and we all are supporting you," He

dumped the bag of paper cranes on Yami's bed," The green ones' are Joey's,

the blue are Tea's, the red are Tristan's, the silver are Bakura's and Yami

Bakura's, the yellow are Yugi's, and the purple are mine," he held up a large

gold crane, "And this was made and signed by all of us."

Yami stared at the hundred cranes, he looked up tears clearly showing

on his face, "Thank....y-you, *sniff* I just......wish.....I could live,........and

guide you Aibou........" he looked at Yugi.

*Blip.......blip.........blip.......................blip*

"Yami, I don't want you to die!" Yugi began to sob again and buried his face

into Yami's shoulder. Yami began to take gasping breaths...

"Joey.....I wish that......you and Mai.......are happy.......Tristan*huff*......please

guide Yugi........*huff* Tea,.....please keep.......everyone

happy,.......Bakura......I hope you and your.......Yami get along......Yami

Bakura.......please be kind.......to him..........Grandpa.....please keep

Yugi.......*huff* safe......for me..............*huff huff* Yugi.......don't mourn for

me...........I have been..........guides to........many people........But.......you are

the.....kindest........ever........please," Yami ruffled Yugi's hair," don't

change............"

*blip.......................blip......................blip....................................blip*

"Good bye......here I come........Ra...."

Yami took his last breath

*Flat tone*

"YAMI!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The gang looked at Yami's tomb, most tombs have a symbol of their

religion on it. Yami had a Egyptian Ankh (on-kh) on it. It read,

Yami Muto

0,B.C-April, 28, 2002

Born a Pharaoh in Egypt

A great friend

Died of Leukemia

Yugi set some flowers in front of the grave, and he set his Duel

monsters deck their too. The grave was surrounded by flowers, and cards.

"Well Yami, I'll respect your last request, I'll stay myself..."

Joey, Tristan, Bakura, YamiB, and Tea walked up behind Yugi. Yugi turned to

them, they nodded and walked away.

The End.
