Moons: FF.net is being stupid lately. I've tried for three days to update this story and they aren't uploading my chapters for some dumb reason.
Aurora: And this time it's not my doing!
Moons: I'm sure. But any way, I'm hoping after I finish this story that they'll let me update. But I'm not making any promises. Cause who knows when Aurora is going to act up.
Aurora: Hey! I already said that I didn't do it!!
Moons: I know you didn't cause my uploading problems but I'm sure you could cause others.
Aurora: …true…
Moons: So anyway, here's the next chapter of Unbroken and I hope you like it. I want to filter in another character of mine (a personal favorite) but I'm not going to say who in case it doesn't work out. But please keep reading and let me know what you think!
Aurora: Another character! Who is it?! You can't keep secrets like this from your muse!!
Moons: Looks like I am…hahaha!!
Aurora: *growls*
Moons: Umm…please read and review! *runs away*
Unbroken
CHAPTER TEN
Yami was fiddling around with an odd deck of cards when the others woke up. To say they were surprised to see him up would have been an understatement. Yugi rubbed the sleep out of his eyes before jumping to his feet.
"Yami!" He cried launching himself at the larger boy. "You're okay now!"
Yami smiled and gave him a hug back.
"It appears so." He grinned. "I woke up feeling fine."
Bakura grinned and sat up from the spot that he had fallen asleep on, on the floor. When he sat up he pulled the blanket away from the still sleeping Ryou. Ryou groaned and curled up in a tight ball trying to retain his body heat. Yugi looked over and laughed.
"Ryou's still sleeping?" He asked Bakura with a pitied grin.
"I was." Ryou growled. He rolled over and grabbed the blanket from his look alike. Wrapping it around his body like a shawl, Ryou turned to Bakura. "What's the commotion over anyway?"
Bakura laughed at the expression on Ryou's face. Wrapped up in the blanket he looked like a disgruntled old woman. When Bakura started laughing, Ryou frowned increasing this image and off setting another round of laughter from the white haired teen. Finally Ryou threw his hands up in the air, knowing he wasn't getting anywhere and looked over at Yugi. To his surprise he saw Yami sitting next to his smaller clone and looking perfectly healthy.
"Yami, you're okay?" He raised an eyebrow expecting him to say something and prove him wrong.
"That's what all the commotion was about." Bakura chuckled, wiping the tears that had leaked from his eyes off his cheeks. "The effects of the bullets wore off and now he's better then ever."
Yami grinned but then a look of confusion crossed his face. He turned to Yugi and held something out to him. It was a deck of cards. But instead of having the suits on it (hearts, spades, diamonds, and clubs) they had odd monsters and images. Some of them were scary while others appeared almost cute. Yugi looked at them with a small smile.
"What kind of cards are these?" Yami asked, shuffling through them once more. He pulled out one card and showed it to Yugi. On it was a man dressed in purple robes holding a long staff. The name on the card announced him as the Dark Magician.
Bakura was intrigued by these cards. He reached over and pulled the deck from Yami's hand. He imitated Yami by shuffling through them and then pulling the top card. It was an angel with a line going down the center of her body. One side of her was white with a beautiful feathery wing. The other side was dark with a black leathery wing. She held a heart in her hands. The card announced her as the Change of Heart.
Yugi smiled and took the deck of cards from Bakura. He shuffled them once more and drew five, laying them on the floor. Yami and Bakura leaned over and read the names written on the cards. They were Curse of Dragon, Gia the Fierce Knight, Polermazation, Kuriboh, and Multiply. But that didn't explain anything. Yami read them over still utterly confused.
"They're Duel Monster Cards." Yugi finally explained to the two confused teens. "It's a card game. Two people battle each other using these monsters as their warriors. Each player gets life points and the first to lose all their life points looses."
Yami looked down at his card. In the corner he read that it had an attack power of 2500. He had no idea what that meant but he guessed it was a good thing. It seemed like a high enough number to win. The creature also had an stack called dark magic attack. He closed his eyes and focused on the power lying with in the card. Suddenly his eyes snapped open and he pointed a hand at the chair pushed in at Ryou's desk. With a frightening sternness he yelled out.
"Dark Magic Attack!"
A ball of dark energy flew from his hands and hit Ryou's chair. There was a loud crackling before it exploded into tiny wood shards. All four teens let out shocked cries and covered their faces from the flying debris. Yami started at the chair with wide eyes.
"Whoa." He murmured.
Bakura grinned and patted Yami's shoulder. "Never seen that power before." He chuckled.
Yugi was in shock while Ryou pouted over his destroyed chair. Now where was he going to sit while he did his homework? He sighed and shook his head.
"My God." Yugi breathed. "You absorbed and used the Dark Magicians attack. That was awesome!"
"Yes awesome." Ryou's British accent came out stronger. "But next time you do that, don't use my belongings for target practice!"
Yami gave a sheepish grin and looked down. He didn't think it would actually work. But boy he had been wrong. He looked down at the card in his hand before slipping it back into the deck. Turning to Yugi, he gave him a questioning look.
"Can you teach me how to play the real way?" He asked. "Special powers aside."
Yugi beamed and shook his head until it appeared it would fall off his neck. He pointed a finger at Ryou, who had preceded to pick up the shards of his chair. Bakura was helping him, saying things such as 'be happy it wasn't your desk.'
"Ryou and I will duel and teach you along the way." He grabbed the deck of cards and began shuffling it. "Come on Ryou."
Ryou placed the shards he had collected on his desk and pulled a duel mat out of his top drawer. He sat opposite of Yugi and laid it out on the floor. Turning to Yami he raised a finger.
"No using any powers." He seemed to think for a moment. "Unless they can bring back my chair. But other then that, none."
Yami nodded and grinned at Bakura who sat down next to him. Yami had a weak spot for games and was always up for learning a new one. This was probably heaven to him. Bakura shook his head, grinning slightly. They had finally got what they wanted.
Freedom…

Marik looked up at the two story house. It was painted white with light blue shutters. A cute place, perfect for an innocent to live. Another innocent. That baka Pharaoh and Tomb Raider. Did they really think that a couple of look a like innocents would save them and offer them salvation? No matter. They would help in the task to break them. But little did any of those damns scientists know that he planned himself to break that Pharaoh and use him as his own tool of destruction. With the Pharaoh on his side, no doubt the tomb raider would follow him. And with both of their powers and his own they'd be a combined force that not even The Master could stop.
He laughed as he climbed the stone steps to the door. Trying the door was a long shot but he did anyway. Just like he expected, it was locked. An evil grin graced his lips. An explosive entrance was always more his style anyway. Summoning up all the control he had on his primary element, fire, he aimed a large fireball at the front door and let it go. The door exploded in a fiery blast. Marik laughed insanely. Now his plan was in action. He stepped through the smoldering hole and into his take over.
"It ends now Pharaoh."
Moons: And so ends this installment of Unbroken.
Aurora: *drools on Marik and his evilness*
Moons: *sigh* -_-;; I guess I'll do the ending myself. Please review this chapter. I wrote it at 12:00 at night. I hope you liked it cause the action is really going to start now!
Aurora: *still drooling*
Moons: At least she's not being annoying. But enjoy this chapter until we read again!! ^.^
Aurora: Yeah, with more Marik!! *goes back to drooling*
Moons: v.v;;
