Chapter 3
Thanks Joey. We thought it might be better if Grandpa saw me, not Yami."
"We're friends, Yug! Right now I'm real confused, but so what?" Yugi smiled at him.
"Thank you guys. I'll tell you every thing when we get to my room." They walked into the shop and said hi, heading directly upstairs. Yugi practically fell into the bed.
//Sure you're up to this? //
"Yes, Yami, but no mind link now, okay?"
//Okay.//
"Can we split?"
//If you are up to it. //
"Of course I'm up to it!" They stared as Yami appeared and caught his Hikari.
"You said you were up to it!"
"Not dead am I?"
"That's what I was worried about happening."
"He could die from you two splitting?"
"Only if his spirit isn't up to it."
"Which it is."
"That's because it's so strong."
"You two? Can you please tell us what's going on? We know he lives in the puzzle and is a pharaoh-
"Was a pharaoh."
"Fine. But that's all we know."
"Aibou, can't you let me just erase their memories?"
"Yami, they're my friends! They've been clueless-except Anzu-for long enough!"
"But-"
"Yami!!!!!!! Show them!!!!!"
All: -_-'
"Show us? How-"
"You guys, just watch."
"Do you want to come Little One?" Yugi shuddered.
"I think I'll pass."
"Understandable." A flash of light and the 4 were gone. Ten minutes passed.
"Yugi, may I come in? Why is it so quiet up there?"
"Uh, one minute Grandpa!" /Come on Yami! Grandpa is curious!/
//Soon Aibou. I will cut it short.// "Come in Grandpa!"
"Why-"
"Grandpa, I think it's time we explained some things. Now if you would please sit down, I think you might get a shock." Trusting his grandson, the old man sat down on Yugi's bed. /Yami, I'm telling Grandpa./
//WHAT?!?!?!?!? Oh well, if you think its best Aibou.//
/Thank you!!!! He's in the room, on the bed./
//But Hikari-//
/Fine. Go ahead./ Yugi sighed. "You might want to move to a chair."
"Yugi, what's going on?"
"And hurry." Confused, Grandpa did. A flash of light, and the gang appeared on the bed.
"YAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!!!" Yugi's Grandpa exclaimed.
"MR.MOTOU!!! Yugi, we're sorry! I guess Yami didn't know-"
"He did. Does everything make sense?"
"Yeah. Mostly."
"Yugi's grandfather was coming and would have had doubts in my Hikari's credibility if he had lied again"
"Thanks Yami. Can we explain now?"
"Yes, if you're feeling up to it. You are feeling better, right?"
"Hai. Grandpa, this is Yami, my darkness. He lives in the puzzle- usually-and is an ancient Pharaoh. He doesn't like formality so just call him Yami."
"Ooorrr I just could've erased his memory."
"No. Yami, I told you I'm tired of lying to them."
"Y-Yugi.is he safe?"
"If you want to know if he's dangerous, yes, he is. However, he's good, and protects me from bullies, though I refuse to let him destroy their minds."
"Although it is quite effective."
"Yami, if you did that to everyone you wanted to, meaning every single person who so much as glanced at me wrong, the population would be dramatically decreased."
"Although Yugi himself has the capa-"
/YAMI!!!!!!!!!!/ Yami winced. "Sorry Aibou."
"That you WILL erase from his memory."
"No, tell me." Though shocked, scared, and thoroughly confused, Grandpa was curious. Yugi sighed, bent his head, and formed an energy ball. Small, because he wasn't recovered completely yet. Ryou decided to put in his two cents.
"And he killed my yami with them, too." He bragged. Grandpa's eyes went as wide as Yugi's. Yami came to the rescue.
"Ryou! Bakura was not killed, just sent to the Shadow Realm, and he was evil. And Yugi was quite brave. He was keeping him from me."
"Oh. What's the Shadow Realm and Ryou's right here, and he's not evil. Why did he want him?"
"Ryou, you take care of this."
"Uh, Bakura is my yami. He used to be a tomb robber, the best, actually in Eygpt where Yami was Pharaoh, but was caught robbing Yami's castle and was burned but he managed to seal himself in the Millenium Ring, which is right here."
"YOU STILL HAVE THAT THING?!?!?!!? GET RID OF IT!!!!"
"Okay, okay."
"Oh." Unoticed, Yami flinched.
"Little One, may I go back intot he puzzle please?"
"Why?"
"I just need to look in some scrools to check a few facts."
"What aren't you telling me, Yami." It was a statement.
"Nothing Hikari." Yugi sighed.
"Alright." A flash of light and Yami was gone. Granpa jumped.
"Where'd he go?"
"In the puzzle. Actually, into his soul room probably." The smaller duelist frowned. "I know something's up. Why won't he tell me?"
"Yugi, my yami had secrets too. Its nothing to worry about."
"Your yami was evil, and his plans usually consisted of different ways to rule the universe or the Shadow Realm."
"Yeah, well." Grandpa stared.
"I think I need more sleep. This whole thing is a dream. It has to be."
"Gramps, sorry to disappoint you, but its not."
"Maybe I could erase his memory and send him to bed. I'd have to do that by hand of course-YAMI KEEP IT DOWN!!!! Okay, I won't. I probably haven't recovered enough yet anyway." He grumbled. He stared.
"You can erase my memory?"
"Yeah, I think. I just don't have enough energy right now. Used it up getting rid of that Tomb Robber."
"Sorry."
"I don't think Yuge's mad, Ryou."
"Good. I'd hate to get him mad at me. Look what happened to Bakura." They laughed. Grandpa looked over at Yugi, his eyes were glazed.
"Are you okay?" Yugi shook his head.
"Yeah, fine, I'm just trying to get Yami to talk to me. He usually doesn't do this." He frowned.
"Usually? He's done it before?"
"Hai, two times before. I hope he's not mad at me. I feel a little anger, but.dang! Why does he have to hide his emotions so well?" His frown deepened.
"I'm sure he's not mad at you. Have you done anything that might make him mad?"
"Well, I yelled a little because he was about to tell you what I can do, and I didn't want that. Still don't as a matter of fact."
"Don't worry about it, Yuge, when he's ready to tell you, he will." Yugi shook his head again and smiled.
"I guess you're right. Worrying about him isn't going to help him any. He might just have found something in those scrolls that makes him angry. Thanks you guys."
"No problem Yuge!" The old man was still confused and in shock.
"I still have some questiones." Anzu said."Why did he.you know."
"His life was the sacrifice needed to seal the Shadow Games into the items."
"What makes the Shadow Realm so terrible?" Yugi shuddered.
"The only way to describe it is to let you see it, and I can't last long there, and Ryou won't be able to, either."
"A quick trip is okay, though?"
"H-Hai."
"If Yugi doesn't want to go, he doesn't have to take you."
"Grandpa, you're starting to sound like Yami."
"Is that bad?" Yugi laughed.
"Only if you start trying to send people's minds to the Shadow Realm."
"Not a chance."
"Then no. Let's go!" They all watched him cautiously as he balled his hands into fists and drew them into the Shadow Realm. He demonstrated traps and magic and he showed them where people's minds and people's spirits and souls were trapped, along with the Shadow Games. He started to look pale and they exited. Yugi stumbled and fell onto the bed gasping for breath. (Think Pegesus vs. Yugi in the SR)
"Yugi!" (All) "Are you okay?"
"Of course! I don't think Yami is happy I went in there though. I think he's coming out." Yami came out transparent.
"YUGI!!! YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T LAST THERE LONG!!!!" Yugi winced.
"Sorry Yami. Could you at least let them see you?"
"Fine." He did. "You know perfectly well how dangerous that is!!!"
"I said sorry." Yugi paused. "Are you okay? There's a red spot on your chest by your heart."
"Yes I'm fine. The ****dye leaked."
"You need to calm down Yami. Wouldn't want to create a Tsunami or anything would you?"
"You know I have better control than that. If I didn't, I would've blown the room away when you solved the Puzzle."
"You didn't need to mind crush that guy."
"He was going to hurt you!"
"So?"
"One day that innocence of yours is going to get you killed one day. You barely hold out in the Shadow Realm!"
"You were like that once I bet."
"Once."
"I'm sorry Yami, I shouldn't have said that."
"It's okay Aibou, I'm not mad. It's time I get over it anyway." They finally realized everyone was staring at them.
"Why are they staring at us?"
"I don't know. They're your friends and grandfather."
"You guys can stop staring." They didn't. "I wish they would stop staring." Dark energy started flowing around Yami a little. "YAMI! NO SUMMONING SHADOW MONSTERS IN MY ROOM!!!"
