Chapter 1- Bad News

            It had been a month since he had collapsed at the archeological site in South America where he had been working with his grandpa. Now he was in the United States, New York to be exact, sitting in the waiting room of a medical doctor. His slender frame sat on a chair as he browsed through one of the magazines that littered the center table in the room. His amethyst eyes scanned the pages, but he didn't focus on the written words in front of him. His mind was preoccupied with the results of his medical tests. What would the results be? He had a feeling it wasn't good news. Unable to concentrate he placed the magazine on a vacant chair beside him.

            "Mr. Motou. Yugi Motou." A female voice called.

            The figure in the chair turned toward the voice and his amethyst eyes landed on the nurse calling his name.

            "The doctor will see you now." She told him simply.

            He nodded and rose from the chair. His tall form (he had hit a growth spurt a year back) walked over to the nurse and when he reached her she walked toward the door of the doctor's private office. She pushed open the door for him and he stepped inside.

            "The doctor will be here in a minute or so." She told him.

            "Thanks." He said before she closed the door behind him. He walked toward the glass window of the office and stood beside it. He gazed out of the window looking at the normal commotion of the city streets below him. He sighed deeply as he looked outside and that's when he heard the door open.

            "Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Motou." The doctor said as a greeting, he closed the door behind him. "Please sit down." He gestured to a chair as he went to his desk and sat down.

            Yugi moved away from the window and took a seat opposite of the doctor. He fidgeted a bit in his seat as the doctor looked at him with a neutral expression.

            "Well Mr. Motou, we got the results back from the lab." The doctor told him. "The result is…"

            Yugi's breath caught in his throat. He moved uneasily in the chair again. This was it. The doctor was going to tell him what was wrong with him.

            The doctor took a deep breath and looked at Yugi. "I'm afraid its not good news." He told him, his voice somber.

            Yugi swallowed the lump in his throat and cleared his throat. "What is it doctor? What's wrong with me?" He asked tentatively.

            "I'm sorry to tell you this, especially to someone so young, but you have a short time to live." The doctor told him, his tone apologetic.

            Yugi nodded his head mutely, his eyes shining with tears. He held back the tears; he didn't want to cry in front of the doctor. "How long do I have to live?" He asked his voice wavering slightly on the words.

            "You have two, three months at the most." The doctor told him.

            "Two, three months." Yugi said softly. "That's not a lot of time."

            "I know." The doctor told him. "I'm sorry."

            Yugi rose from the chair on unsteady legs, seeing him unbalanced the doctor also rose and made his way over to him to help him.

            "Easy son." He told him. "If you're feeling lightheaded just stay seated." The doctor advised him.

            Yugi shook his head. "I'm fine." He told him. "I have to go. There is so much to do." Yugi said softly.

            The doctor nodded in understanding. "I'm sorry that I can't do anything for you." The doctor told him.

            "Yeah, I am too." Yugi replied, his voice distant. "I have to go."

            "Of course." The doctor replied gently.

            "Thank you doctor." Yugi told his doctor. He reached for the doctor's hand and they shook hands. Yugi headed for the door and walked out. "Good bye." He told the doctor.

            "Good bye." The doctor replied.

            Yugi stepped out of the building and out into the frantic street. He decided to walk back to the hotel where he was staying with his grandpa, instead of taking a cab. As he walked toward the hotel the doctor's words echoed in his head. He only had a few months to live. What was he going to do with the time he had left?
