Notes: Sorry it has taken me like a decade to write again, but there has been so much going on around me. First the snow, then I got my PSAT grade back, then Basketball, which had a big thing happen that sort of changed the whole teams life so we are all so out of it our grades are dropping and our coach is concerned with us. So I thought that maybe I can vent a bit by writing.

In the morning Yugi was the first one to wake up, at first he couldn't figure out where the heck he was but then it slowly came back to him.
Yugi climbed out of bed and put on his slippers, and then he went to try and find Yami. At first the unfamiliar surroundings scared but he soon saw someone at the end of the hallway that looked a bit familiar.
"Excuse me," Yugi said quietly, he was afraid that he hadn't been herd but then the old man turned around.
"Can I help you mater Yugi?" Yuji asked as he proceeded to come closer and closer to Yugi. His quick advance made Yugi frightened and he almost tripped over himself while he tried to back away.
"I want Yami," Yugi finally managed out, hoping to halt the mans advancement.
"Oh, master Yami's room is down this hallway second door on the right. I believe that Mr. Kaiba and his brother are sharing the first door," Yuji said pointing, and then he turned to face Yugi again, "If you want I can accompany you there."
"N-n-no thank you," Yugi stuttered and ran past him as quickly as his little legs would carry him down the right hallway. When he came to Yami's room he didn't even knock, he burst right in and flung himself on the bed.
Yami's head shot up and something jumped on his chest. When he opened his eyes he was surprised to see Yugi clinging to him like he was a lifeline.
"Is everything okay Yugi?" Yami asked as he pried Yugi's arms from around his body.
"I didn't know where you were and then I met someone in the hall way and he kept coming closer," Yugi said really quickly, so quick that Yami almost didn't catch it.
"Calm down Yugi, that was just Yuji; he lives here and takes care of the house with Enko all year round. They work for me, you have no reason to fear them, they love you so much, and ever since they met you yesterday it's all they could talk about. I was 'oh Yugi's so cute,' and 'oh Yugi's a little angel,' I swear," Yami said trying to cheer Yugi up. He seemed a bit brighter but his small body still shook with fear.
"I'm sorry Yami, I sorry for being very disrespectful," Yugi said sadly.
"I understand that it is hard for you to up and trust people on the spot, and I will never ask you to do something that you are uncomfortable with. All I ask of you is to try, okay Yugi?" Yami asked lifting Yugi's chin so their eyes met.
"Yea Yami, I'm sorry for waking you up," Yugi said feeling better after talking to Yami about his fear of the servants.
"Don't worry about it; we are going skiing anyway so I needed to wake up one time or another. Are you sure that you are ready to ski?" Yami asked.
"Yep, should we wake the others?" Yugi said, his smile reappearing on his face.
"Okay, how about you wake them the same way you woke me?" Yami asked laughing thinking how Seto would react to being jumped on.
"All but Bakura, because he won't wake up even is an elephant jumped on him," Yugi reminded Yami, at this both boys shared a laugh.
"Okay, you do that and I will get the ski's out and ask Yuji and Enko to start breakfast," Yami said.
"Okay Yami, please tell Yuji that I am sorry too," Yugi said apologetically.
"Don't worry about it master Yugi, I wasn't offended in the slightest," Yuji said coming in with Yami's snow clothes along with some of Yami's old now becoming clothes for Yugi.
"None the less I am sorry for my actions," Yugi said sorrowfully.
"Now, now smile, a smile suits you much better trust me," Yuji said leaving the room.
"Okay now, get to waking our friends," Yami said giving Yugi a small push off the bed.
While Yugi made quick time with waking everyone Yami got all the gear that they would need out of the ski room. They all met up in the kitchen where the warming smell of Enko's wondrous cooking was seeking refuge.
All six boys ate to their hearts content and Yami went to distribute all the stuff he had. After everything was adjusted they were ready to go, all they had to do was go out the back door and they were on the mountain. **
"Now keep the tips together slightly, that's it there you go,"Yami said holding Yugi's hand as he started to move. Up ahead Seto was trying the same with Bakura and Mokuba with Ryou, all were learning fairly fast.
"Just go in a 'S' shape over and over again to insure that you don't catch too much speed. That's perfect, how does it feel Yugi?" Yami asked finally letting go of the vice grip he had on the small boys jacket.
"Its fun," Yugi exclaimed happily. Up ahead Ryou seemed to be getting it but Bakura had taken another wipe out and was currently face planted in the snow.
Yami stayed along side Yugi and made sure that Yugi felt comfortable with everything he was doing. Slowly but surely the boys each started to get the hang of it. They stayed on the bunny hill the whole time though.
When lunch rolled around hey didn't feel like going in but it had been an hour and Yami knew that he had to get Yugi warmed up before he got sick.
They went inside the house and Yami helped Yugi onto the couch and wrapped him in a blanket.
"Is everything okay with Master Yugi?" Enko asked as Yami went into the kitchen for some hot tea.
"He has a low red blood cell count in his body and he has a hard time keeping warm so we need to take breaks with him and allow him to warm up." Yami said sincerely as he fixed the tea up for Yugi.
After the boys had eaten and Yugi had warmed up Yami thought that they could try out a harder slope, he didn't want to admit it but the bunny hill was getting rather boring.
"How about this green trail that starts at the top and ends right about here," Seto said pointing out the route he had mentioned the night before.
"Looks good to me, how do you feel guys?" Yami asked nodding his head in approval.
"It looks fun and exciting," Bakura said, though he had his doubts, he was probably better then the other two boys but way more reckless, flying off in all different directions, it was a mystery how he didn't tumble half way down.***
"Um, I guess it would be interesting to try it out," Ryou said softly, eyeing the map wearily.
"I guess I'm up for it now that I am all warmed up," Yugi said nodding his head to what the other two had said.
"Okay then lets go," Mokuba said as he thrust his fist into the air and let out an excited yelp.
They got on the lift and relaxed, it was a rather long trip to the top from the bottom. As the lift ascended the air became thinner and colder and then as they reached the top it started to snow.
"I am starting to think this was a bad idea," Seto whispered to Yami. Yami looked out to see the mountain and nodded grimly, even he wouldn't want to have to ski down when the snow was this thick.
"Should we bear right, left, or straight when we exit the lift?" Mokuba asked not being able to see five feet ahead of him.
"If I remember correctly then we should stay straight," Seto said though he was very doubtful.
"Okay," Yugi said though he was clearly having many pessimistic thoughts.
As they went to get off the lift, their ski tips up, Yugi got this ominous feeling in the pit of his stomach. "Ready, go," Yami said giving him a slight push so he could get off; his legs were a little short.
They went straight just like Seto had said and all of a sudden there was a slight scream from ahead of Yami and Yugi. (They were the last to get off)
As they continued to see what was wrong they dropped, and not like to their knees, like down a 90 degree angle drop. "Yami," Yugi screamed in utter surprise and fright. Yami made a mad grab for Yugi but couldn't find him the in storm.
All of a sudden they hit the ground, and not softly, landing on some snow, oh no, they hit the ground, well rocks to be more exact, and then they rolled, loosing both skis while doing so.
By the time Yami stopped he was being fueled by pure adrenaline, he had to find Yugi, his frail body could have been seriously injured in the fall.
"Yugi," Yami called out, his voice being lost in the strong winds. Even through the winds Yami heard a small call a little to his left.
Yami trudged though the snow and ended up running into Seto and Mokuba, both looked well, or as well as they could be after falling like that.
"Are you both okay?" Yami asked as he looked over them more closely.
"Yea, and Bakura and Ryou are over there, I think Ryou hurt his leg badly and Bakura's wrist is very swollen, he fell right on it when he came down," Seto said pointing to a group of pine trees. "The wind is almost non- existent in the thickness of the trees, we can stay there till the storm blows over," Seto said, it was then when he realized that Yugi was not with Yami. ****
"Where is Yugi?" Mokuba said beating Seto to the question.
"I can't find him, you have to help me," Yami said panicking, he looked over his shoulder again as if he would see Yugi there.
"Okay, this is what we are going to do, Yami you can start looking but I don't want you to go too far and every so often yell out to Mokuba, and he will yell back, if you don't hear him the you MUST follow your footsteps back until you can hear him. I will do the same this way," Seto said pointing to one way for Yami and the other for himself.
"Okay," Yami said as he took off, yelling every so often and Mokuba would hear him and yell back. Seto nodded in approval and did the same.
It had been at least five minutes since they had started looking and Yami had not seen any sign of his little brother. As he was stumbling threw the snow he was sure he was seeing things. Up ahead there was a multi-colored thing sticking out of the snow.
Yami ran to it, forgetting all about yelling out to Mokuba, all he wanted was to get to Yugi. When he finally got there he dropped to his knees.
"Yugi, wake up, talk to me," Yami cried out desperately.
Yugi's eyes opened, "Yami, I'm so cold, and my chest hurts really badly," Yugi said, Yami noticed that he had an arm snaked around his own waist and was holding it tightly.
"It's gonna be okay Yugi, I am going to get you out of this cold," Yami said, he looked up and could faintly make out the pine trees Seto had mentioned not to long ago.
Yami scooped Yugi up, trying to be mindful of his ribs and ran off and quick as he could. He made it back to see Mokuba and Seto waiting.
"God Yami, we were getting worried, Mokuba hadn't been ale to hear you at all. But I am glad that you found Yugi, let's get him in hear so we can check him out better," Seto said pulling back a branch so Yami could get Yugi in without hitting him.
When Yami got in Seto had shed his under sweater and laid it down under Yugi's head to support it.
"Yugi, hold on, stay with us," Seto said desperately as he noticed Yugi's eyes start to close.

I hope this sort of makes up for my absence, if not, well then find me and hunt me down I deserve it! But please, before you do that, review!
** I stayed at a cabin like that when I was skiing in Vermont. I was so cool, I loved it. All I had to do was walk outside and I could ski to my hearts content.
*** This is how my cousin skis; he starts on two legs and end up all over the place half way down to the end. It's rather funny to watch but it is concerning.
**** There is something like this at my grandpa's house, it is so cool, and I love to hang there in the winter. It is actually very warm in there and the ground isn't all that cold because of all the pine needles on the ground.
