Drug Money

Notes: I know, I killed her, she deserved it. There was a question, and sorry I am too lazy to sign in to check at the moment but the person asked but yes, Yugi is still blind. That's why he was running into a lot of things in the last chapter. Anyway, without further ado I think you all want to read the next chapter:

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Seto had to hold his hand up to his face and turn away. Yugi's mother was laying the corner, thin, bags under her eyes and a syringe in her hand.

Gohai went up to the body and held two fingers to her neck. "Dead," he announced. Seto nodded and left the room, he didn't want to be in there any longer.

Iruka pulled out his cell phone and called the hospital to report a suicide and for someone to come and pick the body up. Meanwhile Gohai had to talk to Seto about Yugi, he was now an orphan.

"Mr. Kaiba, regarding the new progress in the case, it is obvious to us now that Yugi's mother, Kim Motou, was a drug addict and that his home was unsuitable and Mr. Sennen had every right to keep him away from this household. We are going to submit what we know to the court but it's up to them whether he is to go up for adoption or stays with Yami. The later we both hope," he said, and then he left Seto to tell Yami and Yugi what they had found.

When he entered the room Yami was still holding Yugi, but Yugi had stopped crying. Seto could tell the younger was now sleeping; this was the perfect time to tell Yami about Kim.

"Yami, we found something," Seto said catching the older man's attention.

"What is it Seto, what did you find?" Yami said, he picked Yugi up and balanced him in his arms, hoping they could go home and get him to bed, he still wasn't feeling well.

"Kim, Yugi's mother, she's dead Yami, drug overdose they think," Seto said as calm as he could muster.

"That's good right; I mean Yugi can stay with me, right?" Yami said, getting his hopes up.

"Well, it's up to the judge so were not sure. Good luck with it Yami, I really hope he comes to live with you; it will be good for both of you. Sorry but I have to go, Mokuba was asking for me when he got home," Seto said, he gave Yami a pat on the back and left the room.

Yami whipped out his cell and called Izumo and asked him to come and pick them up, he was more then happy to comply.

Yami laid Yugi down on his bed and stared at his sleeping face. How was he going to break this to Yugi, it would hurt Yugi even though his mother had someone rape him for money. And then there was also the pressing matter about Keith that he had to take care of.

Yami sighed, he thought back to when they were on the island and playing in the water, how happy Yugi had been. Now he was blind and an orphan, even with all that Yami was sure Yugi would manage to smile.

Yugi's body moved slightly causing Yami to jump. Yugi's eyes opened and he looked up at Yami, as if to ask where his plushie was. Yami quickly handed over the stuffed duel monster.

"Yugi, I have to tell you something, and you might be upset by it, but I want you to let me finish," Yami said, he took a deep breathe. "Yugi, while at your house they found your mother, but, she was, well she was, dead," Yami said very quietly but Yugi still heard him.

"A-are y-you sure Yami, is s-s-she really d-dead?" Yugi asked tears forming in his lifeless eyes. Yami nodded, though Yugi couldn't see the gesture, he found was unable to form words at the time.

Yugi started to cry, and it wasn't small weeping noise, it was a heart wrenching sob that made his body shake. Yami knew the pain of a loss of a loved one, he wanted nothing more than to make life all better for Yugi but he couldn't. Yami couldn't, he wasn't God, he couldn't make her better, and he certainly couldn't bring her back.

Yami went to comfort Yugi but Yugi pushed him away, he didn't want to be touched by anyone, even if it was Yami.

"If I d-didn't run a-away then n-n-none of this w-would have happened," Yugi cried, all he could think of at the moment was how much it was his fault, all of it, Hera's death, and now his mothers passing.

"Yugi, this is not your fault, neither was your sisters passing, the one's we love die, I know it hurts but you will heal and life will go on," Yami said, he wanted to help Yugi so bad, he wanted to hold him, tell him that it would all be better tomorrow, but he also couldn't bring himself to lie to Yugi like that, it will take time for him to heal.

"I have no one left in this world, I am alone and an orphan!" Yugi exclaimed, he missed the hurt look on Yami's face for more than his lack of sight.

"What about me Yugi, you will always have me," Yami said as he once again tried to touch Yugi, this time Yugi had no strength to push away.

"Yami, it hurts, the pain in worse then anything I have ever felt before," Yugi said, he could feel himself becoming very sleepy and found himself content falling asleep in Yami's arms.

Yami wasn't surprised when Yugi fell asleep, he hadn't been feeling well before they left the house and Yami was pretty sure Yugi had a fever. Yami called for Nanako to come and watch him, Yami needed to take a walk.

When Yugi woke again he wasn't feeling great, it felt hot all around and he couldn't tell if Yami was there, but someone was.

"I see you are awake now Master Yugi, Master Yami had to take a walk, I have a feeling he needs to sort out his feelings," Nanako said as she placed a hand on Yugi's sweaty forehead. With a frown she left and came back with medicine. After Yugi had taken it she laid him back down and told him to get some rest but Yugi seemed restless.

"Miss. Imagawa, what happened to Yami as a child, why doesn't he have parents?" Yugi asked, he knew it was very personal but he had this dire need to know. Nanako didn't know what to say, it was not her place to tell Yugi about Yami's parents death.

"Nanako, I think I am going to take it from here," Yami said from the doorway, he had heard Yugi's question and saw, by the look on her face, that Nanako was very worried to answer.

"Yami, I'm sorry, I'm pressing a lot of information out of you, please forgive me," Yugi said.

"Shhh, I was never mad at you in the first place so there is nothing to forgive you for. I understand why you asked, I know a lot about you, but you don't know all that much about me. You really have been trusting my blindly, if you don't mind the expression," Yami said as he took Nanako's spot next to Yugi's bed.

"I'm sorry if I'm prying," Yugi said again but Yami 'shhhed' him again.

"Yugi, I think you have every right to know about my past. Let's see where to start, oh yes, I was born, yep, believe it or not," Yami said smiling, Yugi laughed imagining Yami's goofy grin.

"Okay, yes I was the proud first son of Kazushi Sennen and Tsuya Sennen. My father really, I didn't know him well, he worked a lot, with the company. My mom was a very sweet woman, she took care of me and my younger sister Hiroko with the aide of Nanako and Izumo.

Now my dad didn't always see eye to eye with people as I think you might have been able to tell by the way my employees treat me. One night my dad got a client rather angry, so angry he wanted to get revenge on my father really badly. So one night there was a knock on the door, it was a special night because my dad had taken off to spend some time with us and he gave Nanako and Izumo the night off. He answered the door and a loud bang was heard. I got scared and ran into my closet. I heard two more bangs and then the door slammed.

I was too afraid to leave my closet all night and into the morning. I actually woke to the sound of Nanako screaming my name. I emerged from the closet to find her. When I walked into the living room I noticed my two servants looking rather grim. I remembering asking them and then demanding to see my mother.

They wouldn't let me, I was so mad at them and told them that my father would fire them for this but they still refused. Later on that day the cops were all over my house, they asked for me so I went with them. I was still not sure why they were there or why they wanted me. In the end I had to identify my mother, father, and little sister's dead bodies.

That day I took a vow of silence, I would never speak of the events that took place that night, in fact I didn't speak at all for about two years. That happened when I was thirteen. Nanako and Izumo took care of me and helped me run the family company, mostly because I refused to sell it. I also spent some time in an orphanage, that's where I met Seto. I got out sooner because of Nanako and Izumo, but I visited Seto a lot. I, in fact, was the one who stuck up for his responsibilities when they were going to take his little brother away form him. You can sort of say he felt like he owed me," Yami stopped there, the tears flowing down his face wasn't what had stopped him, it was the hand that wrapped around his and pulled him into a hug.

"It's okay Yami, you don't have to continue, I will always be here for you, unconditionally," Yugi assured him. Yami smiled at Yugi, he was such a brave, wise child.

"Yugi, would you like me to adopt you, I mean for real?" Yami asked.

"Yes," Yugi exclaimed jumping into Yami's arms and holding him so tight Yami almost couldn't breathe.

"Okay, now bed time, you need to rest up, you still have a bit of a fever," Yami said placing Yugi back into bed and handing him his plushie.

"Good night Yami," Yugi said.

"Good night Yugi," Yami replied as he turned off the light and shut the door. He had a feeling that Yugi was feeling a lot braver in that room at the moment.
