~Chapter 2~



~Bitten~





As the large milky white airplane headed towards Domino City, Japan, lifted up into the air, Peter Parker felt that he could finally relax for the moment. It had been six days since his confrontation with the Green Goblin, and since then, he felt jumpy and unrested. It took a while for him to find a plane that was going to Domino City, Japan, where he would be staying while he was trying to stop the Green Goblin's evil plot. It took a lot of research to find the right alibi for his staying there, too; he had found a program for teachers to teach English in certain areas of the world, and had found one place in Japan where they had an open slot; in a small town called Domino City, at Domino High. He had to fill out the necessary papers to actually go there, too, and had to wait anxiously for three days for the confirmation, every second dreading that the Green Goblin had already made it to Japan. He could have just web-swinged over to Japan as soon as he found out where the evil man was going, but couldn't for two reasons:

1.He would be too worn out by the time he got there.
2.By the time he actually did get there, he'd be an old geezer with bad hearing that you see at the old folk's home.

So now you see the dilemma. So he just had to wait for the plane; which was lifting up into the air as we speak.

As Peter placed a set of headphones on his ears to listen to some soft rock music, he was now thankful more than ever that back in high school, he had decided to take Japanese instead of Spanish; people found it an odd choice, but then again, Peter was always the odd one out. But now, he could actually communicate with the people of Japan, without all of the confusion.

But then, another thought crossed him; how much he hated Japanese currency. He had to exchange some of his American dollars to Japanese dollars before he left. When he first got the yen, he had thought that the people had made a mistake at the banks, because in his hands were 100 000 yen. Looking at it made you think you were a hundred thousandaire, but after checking with the people who worked there, his spirits fell; that was actually what 1200 dollars was worth in yen. Which sucked big time, as Peter put it.

Suddenly, Peter's spider sense started to shudder a bit, warning him of someone approaching. His blue eyes snapped open, just realizing that he had closed them. He glanced to his side, only too see somebody sit down beside him. Well, more like a few somebody's; this guy was huge! Really fat. Peter could have sworn that this guy was made out of pure marshmallow. But before he could make up a few more jokes about the guy's size, his spider sense suddenly became more intense; and he soon found out why. Because of that guy's size, his was big enough to squish Peter right to the window. He let out a small yelp as this happened, and his face got pressed right against the window. Peter look around outside to window, to see the puffy white clouds in the sky envelope the airplane.

Peter was definitely preferring the idea of web-swinging to Japan now; he knew that he hated crowds, but this was ridiculous!

Peter was soon able to squeeze out of his chair and out of the guy's way, hearing to soft snores from him, informing Peter that Tubby was now asleep. Peter breathed out, as he edged by him and landed into another seat, across from the guy. Peter sighed out, as he put a new set of earphones on his ears; much better. But now he couldn't wait to get off the damn plane.





Meanwhile, back in Japan, the students of Domino High still awaited their new English as a second language teacher. But word had gotten out that a Science teacher from New York in America was coming over, just for them. Then, the rumors got out- first people were saying he was a mad scientist out to eat everyone in Japans' brains. But that rumor shortly sputtered out soon after takeoff. Then another one- he was actually a dog catcher from the pound, coming to take away Jounouchi(and as you can guess, was started by Seto Kaiba). That soon went out like a light, too.

"Hey, maybe he's some sort of mutant you see on the news from New York," suggested Honda one day jokingly.

A pause. Then, the group of friends in the long high school hallway, consisting of Jounouchi, Honda, Anzu, and Yuugi, burst out laughing. "Sure, Honda, whatever," Anzu scoffed.

But, they had no clue how close they were; they were burning up. They're new English teacher on the way to Japan was in fact, Peter Parker, AKA, the Amazing Spider-man! But hell if they knew that.

When they stopped laughing, the shortest one, Yuugi, then asked quietly, "Hey, has anyone seen Bakura-kun lately?"

They glanced at their short friend. "No, we haven't seen him. He's not in any of our classes..." Jounouchi answered.

"Well, where could he be, then?" Anzu blinked.


Elsewhere, back at the home Ryou Bakura, Bakura lay on his silvery blue sheeted bed, sobbing softly. A few bruises were plastered on his face, showing the extent of Yami no Bakura's nights out on the town. Bakura still had to harness the evil spirit of the ring in his body, having no other choice. His other half was much too powerful, even though he tried hard to resist the tomb robber's awesome power. But now, knowing Yami no Bakura's true goal, to take over the world with the mystical millennium items, Bakura now even feared to go to school, afraid that Yami no Bakura would hurt his friends trying to steal the millennium puzzle from Yuugi. So now, he felt that it was best to stay as far away from anybody as possible, all the while trying desperately to hold the tomb robber off. Which was costing him his sleep, since he was now even afraid that Yami no Bakura would try something at night. The bruises he held was all the proof his needed.

In which he was fighting a battle he was slowly losing. Everyday, he was growing weaker and weaker. He wasn't sure how much longing he could hold on until the darkness would envelope him, signaling that Yami no Bakura had taken over he body once more.

As he slowly started to calm himself down and halt his soft sobs to a start, he felt his body go numb with a white flashing pain; it was happening again. Yami no Bakura was trying to take over once more. All calmness he had recovered were now gone, as he yelled out in pain. He started to thrash a bit, trying to knock Yami no Bakura away. He sheets under his body started to clump up into a ball of cotton, as his relentless kicking attacked them. He twisted his body sideways, towards the edge of his bed. He yelped out as he was thrown from his bed from his own vicious tantrums, and he fell on the hardwood floor with a thump. He quickly rolled over back towards the bed, his eyes squeezed tightly shut. Not realizing that he had in fact rolled underneath his bed, he quickly tried to sit up with a jolt.

Key word- tried. As soon as he had lifted his head off of the hardwood floor, his forehead connected with the hard wooden part of the base of the furniture. It wouldn't have been such a bad thing, minus the fresh pain, if he hadn't tried to get up so quickly, because he had hit the bed so hard, that he had knocked the wind out of himself, and sent himself into a wave of dizziness. With one final rattling groan, the boy with the silvery-white mullet passed out.





Eleven hours later, the time now being 9:00 at night in Japan, Peter Parker felt the effects of jet lag attack him. He was grateful for finally getting off that plane, and out in the (semi)fresh air. As he went to get his luggage, he stole a look around; nobody was speaking English. At all. Everyone spoke fluent Japanese, and very quickly at that. Peter could barely understand them, they were talking so fast, but then again, he didn't want to pry into peoples' business in the first place.

When he picked up his last bag, which had contained two of his Spider-man suits, Peter exited the airport, and started to look around for a cab. He had rented out an apartment nearby the school he'd be teaching at, and was eager to get 'home' and just sleep for a while.

He then saw a yellow car slowly make it's way towards Peter. Then, he had a thought; he didn't need a cab! He could just web-swing to his apartment! Then, another thought crossed him; he didn't know his way around Japan yet. He could get lost. Not only that, but the people of Domino City might get startled by the sight of a man clad red and blue tights traveling by webs like a spider. But who'd blame them? Peter sighed to himself in self pity; dammit.

He waved his hand out to the cab, and it soon came to a stop in front of him. Peter opened the door to the mustard yellow cab, and sat in it, closing the door behind him.

The man driving the cab with short black hair said in Japanese, "Where to?"

Peter blinked once, processing what he had said. Peter shook his head, and said back in slightly broken Japanese, "Over to the 45th avenue apartment building, please."

...Little did he know that there was a little 'stowaway' in one of his bags...



The next day, word at Domino High that the new English as a Second Language teacher would make his first appearance today, and everyone was curious to who it would be. They were all wondering if all the rumors about him were true. So when 10:00am finally came for second period, Yuugi Motou was excited. Not only did he and Jounouchi no longer had to stay for double math class anymore, but he was finally going to meet the new teacher!

The classroom where English would be held was filled with murmurs from all of the classmates of Yuugi Motou. Yuugi looked around his classroom once more, looking for the new teacher. A few minutes later, the new teacher entered the room. All chatter immediately ceased, and the students averted their attention towards him.


Peter looked at his new pupils with a smile on his face. He walked over to the dark pine green chalkboard, and picked up a piece of white chalk. He started in Japanese, "Hello, class. I'll be your new English teacher for the next while. My name is--" he started to write it down on the board-- "Mr. Parker." He looked back at the class expectantly. On the outside he just looked like your average, ordinary guy. But on the inside, his true identity was revealed as the alter ego of the Amazing Spider-man, who was currently wondering if the Green Goblin was indeed here yet.

Yuugi blinked a few times; this was the new teacher? He was sort of disappointed, since the rumors made him seem so exciting. But he was also glad that the rumors weren't true; especially the dog pound one. Seto would never let Jounouchi live it down.

Yuugi stole a glance back at his best friend Jounouchi, and whispered, "I told you he wasn't an alien from Uranus."


By the end of class, everyone held Peter in a new light. They stopped their rumors about the teacher, and just started to say he was a 'nice guy'. Hell, they even thought he was funny.

Yuugi Motou stayed behind in class, though. Even though Mr. Parker was a good teacher and explained things well, he was still struggling.

Mr. Parker was sorting through his papers, and his thoughts. He wasn't sure what his next move would be. Would he scout out for any sign of the Green Goblin? Or wait for him to find him?

That was when he noticed that the boy with the wild spiked hair had stayed at his desk, waiting very quietly and patiently, his short legs swaying back and forth.

"Can I help you, Mr...Motou, is it?" Peter asked him.

Yuugi looked up at him, and nodded. "Yes, Parker-san. I...need some help with today's work. I didn't get it."

Peter rose from his seat, and stood by the small boy. "Well, what is it you need help with?"

Yuugi looked up at him, seeming even smaller than usual to his intimidating height. Yuugi pulled out his papers, and pointed to one particular one. "This is where I got confused..."


About five minutes later, a small smile brightened on Yuugi's face. "Oh, I see now!" he said enthusiastically. He started to gather up his school work, and stuffed it in his backpack. "Thank you, Parker-san!" Yuugi called out as he left the room.

"Anytime," Peter called back, heading back to his desk to wait for his next class.

Little did Yuugi know, Peter's 'stowaway' had now hitchhiked in his dark blue backpack...



A few hours later, Yuugi was up in his room in the Kame Game Shop, and was doing his English homework. He was doing it very quickly, though, and within minutes, had finished it. He slammed his book shut with a small grin, startling the spirit of his puzzle. Yami no Yuugi took spirit form around his omote, and asked, "What happened?"

Yuugi giggled innocently, "Sorry, mou hitori no boku, I'm just really happy, and I just slammed my book shut, 'is all."

"Oh." Even in spirit form, the blush creeping up Yami no Yuugi's cheeks was noticeable. "I wasn't scared,"

Yuugi rolled his violet eyes. "Sure, whatever," he added with a small giggle. Yuugi walked over to his backpack, and put his papers and textbook back in it. He then grabbed for his math textbook, and started to hum to himself.

Yami no Yuugi watched his young omote idly, feeling at peace. He sat down on Yuugi's bed, wishing that his young omote would always be happy. He deserved it, too. He was always so innocent, cheerful, and good hearted. Yuugi could make the old wicked witch of the west turn into the good witch of the north by just flashing his warm smile.

He'd never forgive himself if something bad happened to him.

Then, the angel of death struck Yami no Yuugi right in the heart. He heard the ear piercing scream of pain come right from his aibou's direction. Yami no Yuugi stood up as if lightning had just struck his rear end. He rushed over to his aibou's side, and bent down to clasp onto his shoulders comfortingly. "Aibou? Aibou, what happened?!" He asked in a panic, louder than he wanted to.

Yuugi clutched onto right wrist in pain, his eyes tightly closed shut with a grimace. "It...hurts..." he whispered in a pained tone. Yami no Yuugi scooped up his young aibou in his arms, and made his way towards Yuugi's bed. Then, as he took a step forward, he heard a small CRUNCHing noise. He lifted up his blue booted foot, and frowned at the sight of red and blue spider guts smeared on the floor, as well as on the bottom of his shoe. "Yuck," he said to himself, but then shook the thought of the dead spider out of his mind; something had happened to him aibou and he needed his help, so he had no time to worry about some insignificant spider.

Yami no Yuugi held onto his aibou tightly until he placed Yuugi on top of the sheets of his bed. He then knelt by his side once more, and then asked as calmly as he could, "Aibou, what is it? What hurts?"

Yuugi could barely hear his Yami, though. He groaned out in pain, he grip around his wrist lessening. Yami no Yuugi noticed this, and carefully made Yuugi's grip lessen more until he let go. Yami no Yuugi gasped. There was a huge spider bite there, and was very swollen, colours of purple and red blanketing it. Oh, aibou, Yami no Yuugi thought gravely. He looked back up at Yuugi, who was still groaning in pain. Yami no Yuugi didn't know what to do; he could only walk about in spirit form, and even then, he was barely able to hold onto solid objets. Really the only items he could hold onto without draining his energy too much in concentration was his aibou and the sennen puzzle. Yami no Yuugi felt utterly helpless. Something he hadn't felt in a long time. He wasn't sure what the spider bite could do to him, and didn't even know it was a spider bite; Yuugi could have caught some horrible disease for all he knew!

Yami no Yuugi felt tears well up in his normally hard crimson-violet eyes. He grasped onto Yuugi's other hand gently, to try and send some comforting waves to him. "Please, hold on, Yuugi," he whispered. But when Yuugi finally lost consciousness, he let the tears fall, as he felt his spirit form slip back into the sennen puzzle.



~Yuugi felt himself falling, falling, falling down a dark pit. He didn't know where he was going, or where he had come from. The cold air rushed past him, sending shivers down his spine. He heard a buzzing in his ears, growing louder and louder by the second. Suddenly, images passed before his very eyes. Images of his friends, Yami no Yuugi, his grandpa, his rival Seto Kaiba, Yami Bakura, Anzu his crush...until the images rested on a shrouded green face, letting out another cackling laugh. That image soon past with the others, and for some reason, went back to a different one, one of a man clad in red and blue tights. Suddenly, he stopped falling, and landed with a thud.

Right into a spider's web.

Yuugi struggled to free himself from the strong sticky substance, but it was no use; he was stuck. Then, from the corner of his eye, he saw a giant red and blue spider crawl across the web in his direction. The buzzing sound soon was replaced by an ear piercing shriek, from the spider. Yuugi shrunk back in terror, his eyes tightly shut--~



Yuugi Motou woke with a start. He was drenched in sweat, making a somewhat aura of dampness surround his head. Yuugi blinked a few times, as he sat up. What happened? He recalled the events in his head just before his passed out. He got bitten by...something in his backpack. From then one, all he saw was blackness, but heard the comforting words from Yami no Yuugi. Then that dream...

But he also remembered something else. He had been in immense pain the whole time. But now, he felt...great! Better than he ever felt before! Was that all part of his dream, too? It, it couldn't have been, it all seemed too real.

Yuugi looked down at the sennen puzzle that hung around his neck. He then said to Yami no Yuugi from their mink link, /Mou hitori no boku! What happened?/

//Aibou?? Oh, thank Ra you're ok! You had me so worried yesterday!// Yami no Yuugi came out of the puzzle in spirit form. "Are you feeling--whoa." Yami no Yuugi's eyes widened, as did Yuugi's.

"You've...buffed up." Yami no Yuugi said bluntly.

"What?" questioned Yuugi. He looked down at his arms, which were bare because he was wearing his sleeveless black t-shirt. His eyes widened; he had...muscles! Well, he always had muscles, but now they were noticeable. They weren't professional wrestler big, but still pretty impressive for someone his height and age. And they didn't look bad, either, which was a surprise to Yuugi; he could never imagine himself like this, and if he did, he'd think that he'd look awful. Yuugi looked back at Yami no Yuugi, who looked pretty much the same as Yuugi did. "You're buffed up, too!"

Yami no Yuugi looked at himself, too. "This...has to be an illusion," He said in disbelief.

Yuugi shook his head. "I'll check," He pinched his cheek. "Ow! Nope, this is real,"

"But how did this happen? What am I talking about, why are we worrying about this? Are you feeling ok? You were in pretty rough shape yesterday,"

Yuugi nodded, "Well, I'm fine now. Great even! I've actually never felt better!"

Yami no Yuugi raised an eyebrow. "Really? That sort of hard to believe...but I'd know you wouldn't lie to me, so I'll take your word for it."

Yuugi nodded, then realized something. "Ack!" he yelped out, "I didn't do my math homework! Crap!!"
