Shadow Warriors

By Yami-Yugi

The One Called Yami

/I'm Yugi Mouto; I was part of a tour group and got separated. And I'm totally lost./ Yugi finely added /Now who are you, and what are you doing in there?/
//The doctors call me Yami. I've been here as long as I can remember.//
Yugi was kind of surprised; he didn't know there was a child here. As far as he had know the children born here where sent to live with loving families or train to be those "Shadow Warriors". Yugi didn't like the Shadow Warriors that much; he didn't like the idea of using kids like himself as weapons of war. Yet as he stared into those crimson eyes of Yami's something inside him wanted him to help the boy. /Want to get out of here Yami?/ he asked.
Yami blink in surprise for a second. //Yea but.//
/I can get you out./
Yami looked at him confused. //But how can you do that?//
Yugi had to think about that for a while He took off his backpack and searched for a paper clip. /I can pick the lock on the door with it./
//Are you sure it will work?//
/Yea, saw it in a movie once./
Yugi began to pick the lock and within minutes Yami was free. //Let's keeps mind talking. If we make too much noise we could get caught.//
/All right. I think I have an extra jacket to hide you in./
Yugi took out his blue-hooded jacket he wore when it got cold and put it on Yami. /There now we can go find the others./
//Are you sure about this?//
/Yeah, you can live with me and Grandpa./
//Really? I've never seen the outside before. It would be nice to have a home.//
/Yeah, it must have been really lonely in there./
//Thanks. Thanks for setting me free. I really hope we don't get caught.// They walked down the long hall way hoping to catch up with the tour. //Wait. I'm drawn to this room.//
/What room? That one?/ They came to a black-steel door. There was a sign on the door it read, PROJECT LIGHT. /I wonder what's in there?/
//I sense that there's a girl in there. She might need our help.//
/A double-rescue mission? O.. kay. People really shouldn't be caged up./ They tried the door and surprisingly it opened. They looked to see another glass room. In it was a girl with chest length brown hair and she was wearing a blue gown. She was curled up, sleeping on a white bed. Next to her was a yellow mouse. A real mouse with a blue bow on one ear. /It must be her pet./
//Yes, it is. I saw the doctors bringing it to this room. I was let out once.//
The girl began to stir and her eyes opened. Her blue eyes meet Yami's crimson and she jumped up from the bed and ran into a corner. Her pet ran over to her and tried to comfort her. ~How did you get out. And who's that?~
//It's okay he helped me get out. I wish you could understand me.//
~I'm sorry, I just want out too. Hi, I'm Meli. Who are you?~
/I'm Yugi, I can get you out too./
~Yeah! I'm sorry Yami, I forgot your not that evil.~ In about five minutes, Yugi had released her. ~Me and Pika love you! Thank you. So Yami, were are you going to live?~
//With this boy and his grandfather.//
~Cool.~ They continued on their way with Pika fallowing closely behind. Yugi finely caught up with the rest of the group. When they got on the bus to leave no one notice the two extra kids.

As the bus drove down the street, Yugi sat in the way back with Meli and Yami setting on either sides of him. Meli just sat there holding Pika close to her nervelessly looked around her. Yugi looked over at Yami who was looking out the window in aw as he watched all the buildings go by. Yugi giggled a little at this at the though of Yami acting like a kid at Christmas the way he was acting.

Later that night, back at the laboratory, the doctors were put on red alert. "Those two are highly classified and one of them is extremely dangerous."
"Project Light is very expensive and important element to our experiments."
"Right, we must find them."

"What about the tour group today? It's the only option."
"We must hunt them down. Send out a search party to every student that was here today."
"I'm on it."

"Thanks for letting me stay with you and Yami. You're hospitality is appreciated."
"No problem, Meli. I don't like the fact that they use people as weapons. So, how do you and Yami know each other?"
"Well. do you want to tell him, Meli?"
"As much as I hate to, he must know if he's going to hide us. It all started when I was a baby. As soon as my "birth" was complete, I was put in a special room. I began to develop special powers, ones different from the Shadow Warriors. I was a kindred spirit, but I hated begin caged, so they gave me Pika. She's my pet and my only friend, with the exception of Yami. At first, I hated him. He was considered evil and dangerous. I was often forced to battle him against my will. You see, I was created as a WEAKNESS to the Shadow Warriors. I had the power of Light and I had the ability to stop Shadow Magic. I secretly be friended him and I now understand that he isn't evil, just gifted. He has a "control" to his over whelming amount of magic. I had been through a lot more then him though. I have been thru so many torturous procedures and horrible experiments that I hate having to relive this. Yami, you're lucky! All they did was caged you!" She started to cry and Yami immediately grabbed her and tried to comfort her.
"We are very grateful you freed us. Meli and I hate it there. Being "born" is a wonderful thing, for normal children like you. For us, it's not that great. We were "born" into a life of coldness, darkness, and scientific statistics. We are sorry to put so much info on you at once, but Meli's right, you must know."
"I feel sorry for you, but now you have a new life and a family. Grandpa and I will gladly take you in.
