Can the Future be Changed?
Chapter Three: Real or Not and Memories
Yugi strolled through the park. The leaves on the tall trees were green with life. A beautiful fountain lye just ahead of Yugi. It was of the Sun and the Earth's Moon. They seemed to dance together with happiness as the water shot up. He looked at the sky with sad eyes as he thought about having fun with his friends and Yami. The Domino Clock Tower stood boldly in the distance. Yugi stood up to the fountain's water. It glowed in the sunlight and he saw a koi (I think that's how it's spelled…) swim by. It was white and had a red spot on its head. Yugi yawned, still tired from last night. He wandered over to one of the stone benches. It was small, but he could lie on it. Before Yugi knew it the relaxing sound of the water had lulled him to sleep. Nobody, noticed that the small golden pyramid glowed a dark color of red again…
{Dream}
A boy with multi colored hair paced to try and get to his destination. The bell rang, and time seemed to slow…
"BOOONG!"
"BOOOONG!"
"BOOOOONG!"
"BOOOOOONG!"
"BOOOOOOONG!!"
"BOOOOOOOONG!!!"
As the last cry of the bells sounded, an ear piecing sound rang through the afternoon air. It was followed by a cry of pure pain and agony rang out. The boy stopped dead in his tracks when he saw a young woman on the cold ground.
"I-It can't…be…" He screamed, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!"
The woman lay on the ground before a boy with the same hair, a guy with brown hair, and a guy with blond hair. She was soaked in crimson red blood. It poured out of the body from a wound in her chest. Her heart had been shot. The boy brushed past others and toward the blood, as tears formed in his eyes. He hugged the blood soaked girl and cried his eyes out, screaming in shock and surprise from the loss of life. His clothes were dyed red from the blood after he was forced away. Soon everything faded away, leaving him all alone…Or so he thought as a voice started to speak…
{End Dream}
Yugi woke to a man asking him franticly to wake up. He opened his innocent purple eyes and saw a crowd gathered around him. Yugi yelped in surprise at all of the people that had gathered.
"Are you okay son?" asked the man that had been trying to wake him up.
The man had tan skin, green eyes, and black hair. Yugi still confused, wondered what the heck was going on, and sat up.
"Uh…why is everybody here…" He asked to no one in particular.
"Boy, you were screaming like you were dying or something." A woman in a pink dress answered. "If you think that won't draw attention you ought to think harder."
Yugi sat there lost in thought.
'The dream! Now I remember! But…I seem to recall more this time…This is getting scary…'
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare anyone…Have any of you ever fallen asleep on accident?" Yugi asked looking very cute.
The crowd seeming convinced that he was all right, started to diminish in size. Yugi stood up and looked around at the now evening sky. He glanced at the clock tower hands that read:
"5:49 PM"
"Oh. I sure slept for a loooong time." Yugi said as he started walking back. "I guess I should be getting home."
He saw a little boy about five with his mother and father looking at the fountain.
"Moma!! Look at the perty colors!" exclaimed the happy boy, as he jumped up and down.
"Oh yes, they are pretty. Right honey?" The mother cooed to the man.
"Yes they are, but not as pretty as my darling son and wife!" The man laughed picking up his son and twirling him through the air.
"Weeeee!!!" The boy cheered and stretched out his little arms. "I'm flwying! I'm flwying!"
The couple couldn't help laughing at their son's remark. Yugi looked at the little family and smiled.
'I remember when I was that happy with my family…'he frowned at the thought. 'I better get going though.'

[Memory]
"Moma! Moma!" A five-year-old Yugi cried as he ran to his mother. "Can we go ta the park?"
A woman with dark red hair and purple eyes looked down from her desk at her little child. She had yellow bangs just like Yugi's. The mother wore a beautiful red gown. She smiled.
"Of course my little Yugi!" She said. "But first we have to get your jacket on!"
The mother went to the closest. She returned with a winter jacket and a red sweater. The woman helped her boy into the blue winter jacket, and then put the sweater on and unbuttoned it. The little boy cheered as they headed out the door.

"If you had only worn more thick clothing…" Yugi said aloud.
'You wouldn't have gotten sick…' he added in his thoughts. 'You cared so much about my heath that-'
Yugi couldn't finish. He started to sob as the memory flooded back.

[Memory]
A six-year-old Yugi sat with his father in a big white room. His father had black shinny hair. Yugi looked around curiously. A man in a white coat came up to them.
"Will she-" Yugi's father began.
The white coat shook his head with a grim expression on his features. Yugi saw his father that never ever had cried in front of him put his hands on his lap and lower his head onto them. The once strong man let tears roll down his checks. Yugi, not understanding what was wrong tugged on his father's sleeve.
"Papa? Don't crwy, after Moma comes out we can leave and then all go get ice cweam!" Yugi said hopefully.
It didn't help. His father drew the little boy closer and sobbed some more. Yugi felt his father's warm tears fall on his back. Yugi had a blank expression on his face and his eyes stared lifelessly as his father said the words.
"Yugi…s-she isn't coming back…"
