Dagger
Chapter 3
When Joey got to the Turtle Game Shop, only Yugi and Yami were home, of course, when Joey explained everything and told them that he needed to talk to Yami alone, Yugi understood, and left. As Yami stood up, facing Joey, Joey felt pulled back by some force, and soon, Sirus was standing in front of him, "Go join Yugi, Joey.", he instructed, "While I have a talk with Yami.",
"Yes, Sirus.", Joey said, leaving the room.
With Joey out of the room, Sirus stared at Yami. "You were whom I and my Aibou seen earlier today while coming back here.", Yami said, "What were you doing with that shovel?",
"I have freed my newest light from what was hurting him.", Sirus replied.
"You killed his Father didn't you?", Yami asked.
"Yes, if I hadn't he would have killed himself.", Sirus explained.
"But did you think about the fact that Joey's not out of school yet, he can't take care of himself and get his education at the same time, that and if he were to go to his Mom, he'd look suspicious for his Father's death.", Yami pointed out, "Who are you anyway, and why would you have an item in the first place?",
"I am the former light to the ring.", Sirus explained, "But, I was abandoned by my Yami, hence, I created my dagger.",
"So, it can't be a millennium item because it was after they were all made.", Yami said.
"True, and it doesn't have the eye on it either, I have no shadow magic but, the dagger does connect me to broken lights.", Sirus said, "Don't worry about Joey, I can take care of him.",
"How?", Yami asked.
"Because I don't use the Shadow Realm I can stay out longer and farther away from my light than you can.", Sirus explained, "If Joey wants me to stay, I stay and it's not your choice either.",
Yami just glared at him, but knew that the other yami was right, it was always the hikari's choice whether or not they wanted the yami around. "There is one ability I do have from the dagger.", Sirus said.
"What is it?", Yami asked.
"I can take away a light from their yami if they are being hurt by their yami.", Sirus answered, "My name is Sirus, if you wanted to know.",
"Well, Sirus, I guess it looks like we might be on the same side of a few issues.", Yami said as Sirus left.
.....
Joey looked over a Sirus as they walked back home, but stopped abruptly hoping that it was far enough to not be heard by anyone. "Sirus?", Joey asked.
"Yes, Jou?", Sirus responded turning, and looking a little concerned, "What is it?",
"What do we do now that I- I don't have anyone to take care of me?", Joey asked, worried, "I- I mean I can't get a job without quitting school and I-",
"Don't worry about it, Joey, I have that all under control. I think I have a talent that most yamis wouldn't have that is popular in this time and any other.", Sirus explained, "I'm not good at games, or anything like that, but I can cook.",
"You cook? Like what kind of cooking?", Joey asked.
"Like big name chief cooking.", Sirus explained.
"You mean like four star dinning?", Joey asked.
"If that means top class, then yeah, I'm that good at cooking.", Sirus admitted, "As soon as I get a job, then we can find a nicer place to live.",
"Do you really think we could?", Joey asked, hopefully.
"I don't think, I know.", Sirus said, "Now come on, let's get home, and fix it up a little, maybe even pack what we don't need into some boxes, get a head start right?",
"Yeah, and we can clean the place up.", Joey said, now getting excited.
End Chapter: See? I do what you say, I killed Joey's Daddy, which had been planned since the first time I came up with the idea for this fic. (Over a year or so ago.) Shows how hard it is to type up every idea on the spot for me. (Slim to null on ever typing it up the day I create the plot.)
