Disclamer: I did own YGO....once....but I was a bad girl and they took it
away ^_~ Darn!
Chibi: Well, here's the second chapter. But I'm quite upset! I had many people request for this sequal and now I only got 3 reviews for the first chapter! So, unless I get at least 5 new reviews, chapter 3 ain't gonna come!!! Gomen ^_^ I'm a grubby little thang, ain't I!!! Well, I know things kinda moved along pretty fast in 'Patience,' so I'm gonna try to slow down things a bit in this fic. So here's your mellowed out, fluff-filled, chapter 3! Enjoy!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Anzu continued to walk down the path she started, happily humming to herself. Nothing could disturb her....or so she thought.
As she turned a dark corner a hand reached out and grabbed her shoulder. Fear struck hard and Anzu found herself frozen in place. She subconsciously thought back to her previous attack. 'Oh no,' Anzu thought, 'please not again...'
"Anzu?"
"Yami?!"
Anzu spun around to find Yami looking at her with a somewhat worried expression.
"Are you ok? What are you doing out here?"
"O-oh, yeah, I...I'm fine," she stuttered. "I just got released from the hospital and decided to go for a walk. That's all," she briefly looked about and then up to him. "Why are you here?"
"I always go for walks here. It helps me to think." Yami paused as he seemed to be temporarily lost in thought. "Anzu?"
"Yeah?"
"I'm sorry I didn't go and visit you at the hospital. I was..well, a little preoccupied."
"That's ok," Anzu spoke hesitantly. She wanted to talk to him about what had happened, but was afraid. 'What if he doesn't want to talk about it? What if he doesn't like me? What if he actually didn't kiss me and I was just delusional? What if..' The 'what ifs' continued to swarm throughout her mind. She just started blankly at the ground till Yami spoke up.
"Anzu," she looked up at him, "Would you mind if I continued my walk with you?"
She smiled over to him, "No, I'd really like that."
Yami walked over to her side and then held out his arm for her to take. She looked at Yami then quickly turned her head as she fought to hold back the blush that was rapidly working itself across her face.
They continued like this for sometime until they both decided to take a break on a nearby bench. There was a street lamp nearby that offered little light, but it was enough for them. Fireflies flickered about like stars on Earth. Anzu thought about vainly attempting to count all of them as she sat down with Yami. She softly giggled as she did this and earned an odd expression from him.
"What's so funny?"
"It's nothing."
"Oh come on! You've got me curious. What is it?"
"It's just a silly little thing I used to do as a kid," she looked over at the fireflies. "My mom used to tell me that each firefly was a wish that somebody had made and each wish was trying to make it to the heavens so they could come true. One day I had asked my mom how many wishes were made each night and she told me to try and count all the fireflies. I looked about and sighed out-loud as saw the massive number of fireflies there were and wished that I knew the exact number. My mom then turned to me and said 'there's one more to add on, now keep on counting.'"
"So did you ever count all of them?" Yami said as he smiled at Anzu.
"Of course not! But I tried to for as long as I can remember. I eventually grew out of the habit of attempting to count them every night. But every now and then, when I look out at the night and see the fireflies," she stopped as she reached out, gently grabbed a firefly and let it crawl along her hand, "I start to count." The firefly on her hand opened its wings and flew away. "There's one.."
Yami watched Anzu intently as she followed the flight the firefly on her hand had taken. He took a deep breath, looked to his right and then pointed. "There's two."
Anzu turned towards Yami with an amused expression on her face. She smiled and then looked at another firefly, "And three."
They both looked at eachother and smiled. The counting continued like this for sometime. Eventually around the 80th firefly Anzu rested her head on Yami's shoulder. Yami's smile went unnoticed by Anzu as she continued to count.
Sleep quickly took over Anzu, yet Yami was more then willing to let her rest on his shoulder. Still, it was getting late and he knew Anzu should get some real rest in her own bed. He reached over with his right arm and was just about to wake her when something caught his attention.
The Eye of Horus on his forehead began to glow brightly as he scanned his surroundings trying not to look suspicious. He knew something was wrong, he just didn't know what. Echoed laughter could be heard within the distance and quickly approaching them.
Yami's immediate concern was for Anzu. Trying not to make to much noise, he gently woke her.
"Hummmm? Oh, I'm sorry Yami. I didn't mean to fall asleep." She said groggily.
"Shhhhh." Yami whispered as he helped her stand up and quickly walk down the path.
"What's the matter?" Anzu softly asked as she watched Yami's eyes dart about looking at everything.
"Hopefully nothing. Just keep up with me."
Anzu jumped a bit as she now heard a burst of laughter coming from behind them. Her heart speed up as she quickened her pace and grabbed onto Yami's arm. He took a quick glance at her and cursed himself for not taking her home when he first ran into her.
The two continued their fast paced speed to get out of the park until they reached the dark turn that Yami first meet up with Anzu at. Needless to say, she was quite intimidated to go by it again. But with Yami at her side she continued on the path.
They had just made it through the turn, but were still in the dark when the Eye began to glow fiercely with more warning. Yami grabbed Anzu and jumped to the ground, shielding her with his body.
Not even a split second later, the horrifying sound of a gun blast echoed throughout. Anzu screamed as the deafening sound shot past were she and Yami were previously standing at.
"Damn'it! I missed!" the unknown assailant cursed from the distance.
Yami straightened up and knelled next to Anzu, still trying to protect her if need be necessary. "Who's there?" His voice commanded with immense strength and courage.
Soon after a vile group of three men emerged from the nearby trees and bushes. One stayed hidden in the shadows as the other two walked forward. The man on the right held a gun in his left hand and had it aimed for Yami. The other man continued to laugh insanely as he flipped a dagger in his right hand.
"Don't you remember me?" The man hidden in the shadows called out. "Cause I remember you. And guess what boy..."
The man stalked forward and came to a halt after Anzu stood up and gasped with fear as Yami protectively stood infront of her.
"I've got a game for you!"
