A/N- Hey, everyone! Quick note and then I'm basically done.
If you have not reviewed the last chapter because you usually review in the later part of the week, please review that last chapter or I am never doing this again! (For those of you that still aren't catching on, if you just read the last chapter and then came straight to this one, you should go back and review the last one!) Thank you very much everyone!
I'd also like to thank everyone that reviewed! You guys are really the greatest ever! If it were not for all of you I wouldn't be able to keep going so thanks a load! ^_^
Soceress Vanessa: Thanks! Can't tell ya what's gonna happen! You'll just have to find out for yourself and if you kill me you'll never find out what happens and even Selina doesn't know what's gonna happen next! Thanks for your encouragement! It really means a lot!
digigirl-zumi: Yay! Go you! Now you can get behind again just like I always do! HAHAHA! A rolled up newspaper, huh? Man, you don't know how right you were in some of those guesses, but you'll find that out in this chapter!
LadyDeathStrike1: Well, I e-mailed you all the same! I hope you got my last one! Thanks and if you still didn't get it then just go to the address on my profile page!
Hazel-Beka: Yay! You e-mailed me! I feel so loved! Wish your friend happy birthday from me too! Actually it's not all that weird for someone to be older but shorter. I'm shorter than just about everyone in my sophomore class and yet, I'm older than a lot of them, besides I have this one girl that's 1 month older than me and she's in 11th! Thanks you guys! I like hyperness!
Una: Yeah, the soul stealing can kinda distract you from it's less threatening powers! HEHEHE! You are going in the completely wrong direction! I can't say much without giving stuff away. I'll e-mail you about your pic.
Nightlight5: I'm glad you like it! Thanks for joining us! I hope you stay and enjoy!
fishkisser: yeah, it was short, but if it wasn't you wouldn't be getting this next chapter so soon, ne? I'll have to tell you about the scaring some other time cause I'm about to leave and must hurry. Remind me and I'll tell you later! Thanks for everything!
hobbit13: Well, thank you SO VERY MUCH for poking all of my wounds! I know it was kinda messed up...*cries* I'm pititful I know, just LEAVE ME ALONE! *all said very dramatically so you know not to listen to her*
LilKay13: THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You made my day! Thanks for reviewing! ^_^
Subieko: Actually, I've read different fics of the gang going into the SR with some of them having them be fine and others where they suffer as well. Them suffering served my purposes better so I went with that. But yeah, I don't really think it affects them THAT much like it does to Yugi. Thank you so much!!! Have you been able to get over your writer's block yet? Do you know when you will be able to update again?
Chrono Cross: Hey! Long time to hear from!! I'm glad you are back!!! ACK! Someone help me! More death threats are raining down on me! Help! Thank you! Don't worry about it!! I'm just glad you are back!!! ACK!! Help!!!MEEEEEE!!!!

Happy Birthday Hazel! *gives you big plushie of your most favoritest anime character!!!*
QUESTION: Have any of you all noticed yet that I am a somewhat erratic writer and usually write my stories to be the exact opposite of what everyone else is thinking I will do? Well if you haven't figured that out after chapter 11, you might just find out now cause you are about to get another one of those kinds of chapters! Enjoy!

Chapter 16
Bakura was near his target, he could sense it. Then he heard out of the depths of the darkness, "Ahhh! Nooo! Put me down! Let me go!"
The smirk left his face to be replaced by a grimace...he had not thought that something else might get to Yugi first. He ran in the direction that the screams had come from. As he ran he noticed it was getting lighter with ever step he took. The expression on his face turned into one of puzzlement as he wondered why, but then his eyes widened as he realized what it meant. It was Yugi's light, the light that radiated from him.
He gasp inwardly as he came to the conclusion that Yugi was as strong in his light powers as Yami was in his dark ones. The only thing he was really worried about though was not getting to Yugi in time. The kid did not know he had these abilities, let alone know how to use them, so Bakura did not have to worry about being overtaken, by the innocent one.
As he came into the light, his eyes widened once again at what he saw.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Yami could tell that the others were tired. The strain showed in their features, but Yugi had been in here for some four plus hours. Ryou was doing better than the others, but he was a hikari so that was to be expected, although he could have been better.
'I hope Yugi is ok,' Yami thought as they rushed through the Shadow Realm.
Just then he heard a scream. "Ahhh! Nooo! Put me down! Let me go!"
They stopped running as they heard it. "Yugi," Yami whispered, then took off running to his hikari aibou. Joey and the others plunged into the darkness after him, but they were barely able to keep up. They were so tired from having to run the whole time. One thing they noticed as they got closer and closer to where the screams had emanated from was it was getting lighter. They pointed this out to Yami, hoping he would slow down just a bit, but it only made him go faster.
"That's from Yugi. We're getting closer," he told them.
It left them puzzled; how could that come from Yugi? When they almost reached the center of the light, they all collapsed except Yami. He looked back at them and stopped running. He looked at them and back towards the light. They saw the longing and sadness in his eyes as he looked between one and the other. He needed to get them out of here, but Yugi had been in here much longer and although he could not connect with Yugi, he knew that his time was almost up.
"I'll come back for you guys, I promise," he told the group of panting, sweating teenagers. He ran forward and it only took him a few seconds to reach the source of light. He stopped dead in his tracks, amazed at what he was witnessing.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Yugi screamed at the thing that was holding him as it opened its mouth to devour him. He could smell its foul, putrid breath and vaguely wonder what kind of food it usually ate here in the Shadow Realm.
As he struggled against the beast that held him, he remembered his duel with Pegasus in the Shadow Realm. There, they had not needed to use the holographic projectors to create the monsters. There, they had been real and were sustained by the magical energies of their master.
Without a second thought about it Yugi picked a card from his deck in his pants pocket. Somehow knowing what it would be, he called upon the power of the Dark Magician. Yugi brought the monster to life with the rest of his strength and had it use Dark Magic attack. The beast disintegrated into tiny pieces and disappeared as it was digitized. He was finally dropped and the Dark Magician vanished leaving Yugi exhausted and no longer able to sustain it with his magical energies that were almost depleted.
He looked up and saw Bakura on his right and Yami on his left. Then he fell to the ground as the last of his strength left him. Yami and Bakura both took this time to try to get a hold of Yugi.
They each ran up in an attempt to get him, but before they got there they stopped. They were each standing on either side of Yugi when he sat up. His eyes were no longer the color of the lilac orbs Yami loved to look into and see himself, in a pure form, but instead the irises no longer held any hue at all. They were pure white.
Then the two teens noticed the star shape of the Black Crystal imprinted on Yugi's forehead almost like a scar. It was glowing a dark violet color and Yugi's golden bangs were blowing about his head while the rest of his hair swayed from side to side.
He stuck his palms out to face the two beside him, a blast of white and dark violet striped light shot out from them, blasting the two boys backwards. Then a ring of light that was made of dark violet and black streaks fell down around him, followed by a beam of white light that came through the middle to rest upon Yugi.
Yami and Bakura got up painfully to watch in fascination and horror as the two different beams started to spin in opposite directions from each other. Then they dispersed leaving a vortex that swirled around Yugi for a moment before he disappeared before their eyes.
Then Yami and Bakura were suddenly transported back to the real world along with Joey, Tristan, Tea, and Ryou.
A/N- Ooo! What happened to Yugi? What are Yami and the gang going to do now? Are Bakura and Yami going to start another fight? Why am I asking all kinds of questions that I already know the answer to? I don't know; just for fun I guess, but find out those answers for yourselves next time on TBCS!!!! Please review!
Don't forget to let me know if you update stories!! I hardly have time to do anything anymore, but I will try my best to review the stories that you TELL me you've updated! If you don't tell me, then I'm more than likely not going to be able to get to it!!
JA NE!!!
