"This is talking"
"These are thoughts"
Finnally, the executioner prepared to swing.
Yugi shut his eyes tight, bracing himself for the attack, but after a few seconds, he opened his eyes and looked back up, confused.
The executioner's arm was still swung back, and wasn't coming forward, and the man was looking back in confusion. After short while, Yugi noticed the reason why. He noticed the younger Yami was clinging to the mans arm tightly, hanging about two feet off the ground as the executioner lifted his arm up a bit.
"Please don' hurt dem!" Yami said desperately, still not letting go of the mans arm, tears streaming down his face. He let go and fell to the ground with a 'thump', but he quickly got up and ran over to Yugi, hugging around his neck, but not very tightly. "Please...they're my friends..."
Yugi smiled over at small Yami, the Pharaoh looked a little shocked, because his son had never cared this much about anyone and the gaurds looked at eachother in confusion, pointing to the blushing older Yami and shrugging.
The Pharaoh scratched his head in confusion. "Well this is unexpected."
"Yup," little Yami said, smiling hapilly. He was sitting on a chair next to his father, kicking his legs and seemed to look like he'd never stop smiling. He looked over at Yugi, who was talking to Yami about something called 'cawtoons' on something called a 'tel-ee-fish-on'.
"But back to serious matters Yami, who're we going to get home, I'm starting to like this place less and less as we go along," Yugi whispered to Yami, glancing over at little Yami and the Pharaoh every now and again.
Yami sighed and shook his head, shutting his eyes."We can't go now. Even if we knew how, we have to stop Bakura."
"Oh ya..." Yugi mumbled, looking at the floor. "That Bakura, he's such a stupid, good-for-nothing, idiotic-"
"Ok, that's going to far."
Yugi jumped so much he almost fell off his chair. He stood up next to Yami and growled. It was Bakura.
"Who are you?!" The Pharaoh yelled, standing up. "How did you get in here?!"
"Oh, your gaurds took a little trip to the Shadow Realm." Bakura replied with a grin, and Yugi spoted him putting his deck into his pocket.
Little Yami looked in confusion at Bakura, before his eyes went wide. He grabbed his father's sleeve and hid behind him, pointing at him and mumbling something to him father. The Pharaoh glared at Bakura. "So you're the one who attacked my son."
"What, you mean him?" Bakura said pointing at small Yami. "Or is it him you're talking about?" He asked, pointing to the other Yami. "Doesn't make a difference, I attacked the runt ealier today, and the other in the future. So I guess my answers a yes." He finished, shrugging.
The Pharaoh's eyes grew wide as he looked from the smaller confused Yami to the older and much more angry older Yami. "Is what he says true? Are you...Yami?"
Yami drew in a deep breath and looked back at his father. There was no need for words, the Pharaoh could see the answer in his eyes. Yami shut his eyes and turned back to Bakura.
"Aww, is da ikkle Phawaoh gonna cwy?" Bakura said to Yami in a mocking, baby voice before grinning. "Pathetic."
Yami rubbed his sleeve quickly over his eyes before glaring at Bakura. "What do you want?"
"The same thing I always want, for you and your little friend to be destroyed and the Millennium Puzzle." Bakura said, glancing at Yugi and the Puzzle around his neck.
Yugi narrowed his eyes and looked back at little Yami. "Yami, do you still have that little piece of gold you found earlier?" He asked, and Yami nodded, taking it out and holding it out to him. Yugi took the piece and looked at Yami questioningly.
Yami looked at the piece, then the puzzle, then Yugi and nodded. "We are better as one."
Yugi frowned, glancing back at the Pharaoh before placing the piece in it's slot. There was a blinding glow which erupted from the Millennium Puzzle, and Yami looked sadly at his father as he began to turn once again to a spirit. Just before he dissappeared, Yugi thought he saw a tear fall.
Yugi frowned down at the puzzle, then looked up at Bakura. He cpuld make a wild guess, he may not have a normal duel, they may head for a Shadow Game, with dire concequences. "All right Bakura, name your game."
Bakura grinned at the walls of the room began to crawl with shadows as they entered the Shadow Realm. "Oh, you'll see soon enough little Yugi..."
