Disclaimer: Me no own Yu-Gi-Oh!
"This is talking"
"These are thoughts"
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..."
Looking around, Yugi noticed that the whole room was now the Shadow Realm, frowning when he saw the Pharaoh and little Yami were also there. Turning back towards Bakura, he closed his eyes and the Millennium Puzzle glowed. "Yu-Gi-Oh!" He called out as he was enveloped in a bright light. When it dies down, Yami Yugi stood in his place. He opened his eyes and glared at Bakura, who stood unfazed.
"Alright, the game is simple. It is a duel, but of a different sort." He snapped his fingers an d a pit opened up between them. A narrow path appeared across it, about half a metre wide or so wide. Beside them both lay two black metal chests, and in the pit, many pairs of red eyes glowed brightly. "There is a collection of weapons in each chest, you may choose three of them. The battle shall take place on the narrow path over the pit. The dark creatures below will envelop who ever falls in, and all that will remain of them will be their Millennium Item. Understand?"
Yami nodded and looked down at the open chest. There were many weapons of choice, and apart from seeing them on television, neither Yami nor Yugi knew how to use them properly. He knelt down and pulled out a few of the daggers and swords, looking them over. He was a goner, how was he supposed to win?
The two stood upon the edges of each path. After they prepared them self, Bakura withdrew a sword while Yami choose a dagger. "Any last words?" Bakura grinned.
Yami didn't reply, he just made sure he had a good balance. Bakura ran forward, strangely good at keeping his balance, but a dagger flew and struck his shoulder. He cringed, but quickly sliced forward, cutting Yami Yugi across his chest.
Little Yami, who was standing nearby and hiding behind his father, gasped as a slight pain hit him, groaning and holding his chest. They still shared pains, but because it was both Yami and Yugi, the pain was lessened.
Yami stumbled back, but quickly took out the other dagger, throwing it at Bakura, trying to keep his distance but still trying to fight. The dagger was deflected off a second blade and into the pit. Bakura through a final dagger, but it missed, so he held both swords in his hands. Withdrawing his final weapon, his sword, Yami charged forward. He was at the disadvantage, Bakura had two swords, but he wouldn't give up.
Little Yami turned into his father, trying not to see of hear the clanging of blades behind him. "Daddy I wanna go home..." He mumbled, but the Pharaoh had all his attention on the battle.
Bakura held off Yami's sideways attack with one blade. He raised the second and hit Yami across the head with the flat side. Yami stumbled sideways, trying to keep his balance, but Bakura gave him one last shove, and he fell off.
"Yami!" The Pharaoh called, causing little Yami to look up at him in confusion.
Bakura looked over at the Pharaoh and little Yami, grinning. "You didn't make much of him did you? He was just a pathetic wimp that didn't really belong anywhere. And now, the greatest power of the Millennium Items will be mine."
"Don't count of it."
"What?!" Bakura spun around and looked into the pit at the sound of Yami's voice. Yami Yugi had used the hilt of the sword to stop himself from falling and was now after pulling himself up onto the path again. He dodged Bakura's foot and kicked Bakura in the back of the knee, causing him to lose his balance and fall over, off the path, and into the darkness.
"Yes Yugi?"
"There's a portal open here....in the shadow realm... and it leads home..."
"Really?"
"Ya, but... there's a problem..."
"What?"
"You don't want me to go."
"Wha...?"
Yugi looked down at little Yami and sighed. "I don't belong in your time Yami, I have to go."
"But I don't want you too!" Yami yelled, clinging to Yugi's arm. He was picked up by the Pharaoh and forced to let Yugi go. He rubbed his eyes to wipe away the tears, and looked at his father, who was looking at Yugi.
"We understand." He said to Yugi. "But will you do me a favour? Tell Yami I'm proud of him."
Yugi smiled. "I'm sure he knows, goodbye!" He called as he jumped into the portal in the floor, the portal closed, the shadow realm dissolved, and Yami and his father were left alone.
Yami looked at the floor for a few seconds then at his father, talking in his usually perky voice. "So, what's for dinner?"
Yugi jumped when he saw Yami, hiding something behind his back and grinned. "Oh nothing."
Yami raised an eyebrow and tried to see what was behind Yugi, but he simply turned away. He moved quickly around, trying to grab what ever it was. Eventually, he got it, and looked at it in horror.
That's what that clicking sound had been! "You had a camera?!" He yelled, blushing furiously. The picture he had in his hand was one of himself looked innocently up at his father. His eyes grew wide as he saw the other pictures Yugi held up, grinning. Even the one of him crying was there! "Gimmie those!" He yelled and made a grab for them, but Yugi jump away. He got up off the floor and took chase after Yugi, who was finding it hard to run as he couldn't stop laughing.
Joey was sitting on the coach, laughing as Yami and Yugi ran circles around the room, jumping on and over furniture. He reached into Yugi's bag and pulled out the same camera, holding it up he grinned. "Say cheese!"
