A/N: Wooo! Chapter five!
"I'm gonna have to punish you for your last move Yugi. Did you really think I'd let you get away with that attack? I activate Trap Hole [4]."
"Not again! I've never seen you play like this. So many trap cards!" He exclaimed.
"Ever since our last duel, I decided a new strategy was in need."
His face blanched slightly at the thought of our last duel, but quickly brightened again, "That was a brilliant duel. I don't wish to go through it again though! You were really after my blood!"
My lips curled. He is certainly brave, I'll admit that much. But he should really be more careful in choosing his words. Although technically, I wasn't after his blood. I was after the Pharaoh's.

"Yugi......" He groaned. I could hear his heart protesting against the strain. What a senile old fool. "Yug..i....." He tried again, eyes barely able to look towards the stairs at the back of the stacks of worthless duel-monster cards.
"Grandpa?" Yugi's worried little voice floated down, "Grandpa? Where are you?" The old guy gave one more choke and his voice died, face buried within the folds of his now much more colourful arms. I restrained the urge to flip him over with my foot. I really didn't want to get my boot dirty. The ancient one had a weak heart, which made my job so much easier. Only the sight of several shallow cuts to the weathered skin that had seen much better days to his lower arms had sent him into a hopeless state. I hoped his grandson would have more....spunk. But he should have been used to this, it wasn't the first time I had spotted Yugi's major weakness.
"Grandpa? Are you ok? If you're trying to lift that box with that back of yours again I'm gonna confiscate your TV!" Yugi continued to call, "Grandpa, stop this. I'm going to the hospital to check up on Téa!" Footsteps on the landing caused me to sigh regretfully. I tipped over a case full of booster packs, successfully burying the aged mortal under an avalanche of cardboard.
"Grandpa!!!!" Yugi shouted, hearing the crush, but all that greeted him was the sweet tinkle of the bell above the door as I disappeared down the street.
He had no idea how amused I was at seeing him run around the shop as if his pants were on fire.
