"Katsuya Jonouchi you wake up this instant!"
Jonouchi fell out of bed, startled awake by the harsh female voice in his ear. He screamed, then realized who it was.
"Oh Anzu, it's just you. Damn you scared me."
Anzu flipped on the light in the cabin and glared at him.
"What's wrong?"
She hit him on the head.
"Ow, damn it! What was that for?"
"What was it for?" Anzu looked like she was about to burst with rage. "I'll tell ya what it's for buddy. Yugi that's what."
"Oh," said Jonouchi picking himself up off the floor, "Yugi huh? I'll tell you what. Yugi can go to hell."
Anzu hit him again, "You just need to shut your big fat mouth for a second. What you said to Yugi hurt him."
"Good," said Jonouchi, rubbing at the bump on his head, "It was meant to. He's being a real pain in the ass."
Anzu grabbed him by the arms and made him look her in the eye, "His heart's broken as much as yours. They'll end up sticking him in some foster home and we'll never see him again. Is that what you want Jonouchi?"
Anzu watched the brown eyes soften, "Of course not."
"Well than stop being an idiot. The way to get Yugi to do something is not to threaten him. It only scares him more."
He pulled out of her grip. "Yeah, well that's just tough."
Anzu's eyes widened, "This is about your little sister isn't it? That's why your being such a shit."
"Of course it's about her. Shizuka's all I have."
Anzu shook her head, "You're wrong." Jounouchi looked at her, "You have us. Or did until you started being a bully again."
Jonouchi nodded his understanding, "So how do we get Yugi to see things our way?"
"With patience. We need to convince him that we'll all be safe."
Jonouchi's frown deepened, "But we don't know that for sure."
Anzu's blue eyes were sad, "No we don't. but that's a risk we've got to take. For Yami and Grandpa."
