Shadow raised the motionless yet alive body of Yugi. "Where should I start?" It said, with a sarcastic tone of voice. "Should I leave the small Kaiba here? Or should I place him right beside Seto's lap top..." It whispered softly, "I think I should leave him here, now, for the Yugi case..." It grabbed Yugi around his neck as he gradually gained consiousness.

"So, little Yugi, do you have any last wishes??" It barked quietly. Yugi tried to cry out, but Shadow's hands were pressing tightly Yugi's neck. Yugi was hanging in the air, Shadow kept one hand around Yugi's neck and the other on his shoulder. "I guess that's a no..."

Yugi balanced his feet back and fourth trying to set himself free, but Shadow was way too strong for little Yugi to handle. "Then, Yugi, I guess it is time for you to go join your beloved friends..." Shadow now grabbed Yugi with both hands and throttled him to death. It grabbed the forgotten Millenium Puzzle from the bedside table and placed it carefully around the neck of the lifeless but perfect body of Yugi, and placed him on the bed.

In the mortal silence of the night, and just after it had put on the puzzle again, the muffled heart started beating again, that's when Shadow left the room. "Sleep tight... Yugi..."

/*/*/*/*/*/

"Yugi..." Yami startled. The ancient chamber of the pharaoh was litten with a bright, scarlet light as he went looking around for Yugi. "Yugi!" He shouted now and then and examined each of the chambers in the puzzle, "Yugi!" He cried out. No answer was heard. Yami couldn't feel Yugi's presence anywhere. He crumbled.

The puzzle was as quiet as a tomb, ans that is exactly what it was, as Yami regained strenght, he made his way to Yugi's soulroom. The dark hall ate him inside and in the shadows, Yami opened the door to Yugi's room.

A siniestral chill stroke Yami. The soulroom was no longer vivid, the scarlet light from far chambers and the shadows of the hall mixed into one, bloody velvet, running though the soulroom. Yami opened the door wider and the scarlet light flooded inside, laughing madly over Yugi's dead body-no, Yugi's dead soul. Yami rushed and fell right beside his fellow.

"Yugi, talk to me!" he cried, "Yugi!! Talk to me!!!" He cried louder, and louder, but there was no reply...

/*/*/*/*/*/*/ The morning in the cottage was shinning, the breeze of yester rain shower the air. The mood inside the cottage turned happier.

Téa was making some breakfast for everyone, Shizuka was helping. Joey was joking with Ryou, who smiled shy. Seto was working on his laptop and Malik was playing with some fake fruit on the table.

"Hey, Joey!" Téa yelled, Joey turned his attention to her, "would you mind setting up the table please?" "No problemo." He said and left the table to grab some dishes and stuff. Ryou watched him and the stood up to help him. Malik stopped the playing and put each fruit ont its right place, Seto closed the lap top and put it away.

As Téa served each dish, she saw faces missing. "That lazy Yugi! He is asleep yet!" She laughed.

"And so is Mokuba," laughed Ryou followed by Joey. Seto glanced. "Let's go find Mokuba!" Joey cried and rushed up the stairs along with Ryou.

"Seto," Téa hesitated,. Seto glanced indiferent at her. "W-Would you mind waking Yugi?" she asked, embarrased. Seto said no word and stood up the table, heading Yugi's room.

Seto opened the door carelessly. "Little mutt, the break..." he paused. As he opened the door wider he saw a trail of blood grow bigger and end up in a pond just where a disfigured body laid, Seto could only recognize between all the mangled pieces a small necklace, shaped as a card.

"Mokuba!!!" Seto shouted, without noticing Yugi laying on the bed. Téa came inside the room as she heard the scream, Shisuka peeped behind her and Ryou and Joey rushed down the stairs as fast as possible. Seto fell on his knees. As Joey entered the room, he covered his mouth and nose to prevent himself from throwing up, Téa turned her face away and drove shizuka outside. Seto had trembling hands. He shouted once more. "Mokuba!!!!"

Yami could hear Seto's cry even from inside the soul room, were he had seen Yugi turn into ashes, he took control of the body. Yugi incorporate din the bed. Seto drove his atention to him.

"You bastard!!! You killed my brohter! You bastard!!" He shout as he threw himslef over Yugi. Yami didn't move, -he dind't even try to dodge Seto's attack. Seto hesitated ans topped fully. Téa looked at him and then at Yugi. "Yami?" She whispered.

A tear fell down Yami's cheek. "Seto," he gasped, "there is no use on fighting when we both have lost a loved one." Seto was surprised. Malik entered the room just in that moment.

"Yami? Where's Yugi?" Asked Joey, just about to burst into tears.

"Gone..." Yami muttered. "I'm the only one inhabitating this body now..."

"Who...Who was it... Who ever was it, has no mercy at all..." Muttered Téa as she crumbled down to her knees, crying. Malik glanced silently and left the room.
