Ch.8: Yikes!
Yugi let out a big gasp. He was breathing again. His vision was a little blurry and had to wipe his eyes on his sleeve before he could see again. The others were staring at him, worried but relieved. He slowly lifted himself up off Phoenix's hospital bed and looked for Yami, who was leaning on the wall in the corner glaring at him. "What?!" he asked, not liking the look on Yami's face. Finally, Yami exploded. "You IDIOT! I can't believe you risked yourself like that! Don't you know it's not safe to let your spirit leave your body?! You could've died!!" Furious and emotional, Yami stomped out and walked briskly beyond the room where he disappeared. Yugi shook his head. Joey was sitting with the front of his body to the back of a chair. "Geez, man, you had us worried there..." "Sorry to scare you guys" Yugi replied to everyone. Tea and Ryou were sitting on another bed, Tristan was standing and looking out the window, and Kaiba was outside the door talking on a cell phone. Yugi sighed. Everyone looked so grim. He decided he should tell them what he saw. He called over the others and they walked over. He explained about flying in the air and seeing Blade's trail. About how he followed it to their parent's house and also saw Phoenix and Blade. The others listened with interest, their eyes growing wider with each passing sentence. By the end, they couldn't believe it. He decided maybe he should relay the info to Yami. Tapping into his telepathy, he searched for Yami's attention but only had doors slammed in his face. Then he mustered up all his power and shouted at him. //YAMI! STOP THIS!// //I have nothing to say to you.// Yami's voice growled like Blade's did. Yugi then tried again. //C'MON YAMI! Quit being so angry! What did I do anyway?!// However, he got more of the answer he expected. Yami was in the room in a flash and marched up to Yugi turning red with fury. Joey dived out of the way. He didn't want to be caught in the hurricane. Yugi almost shrunk back. He had never seen Yami so angry before. And when Yami spoke, his voice was full of daggers. "SO, you want to know why I'm angry at you?! It SHOULD BE obvious!! Fine, I'll tell you!" He then closed his eyes and transported Yugi and himself to the Shadow Realm. There, he exploded at Yugi, who fell on his back he was so startled. "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'D DO SOMETHING SO DAMN STUPID! HERE'S WHY IM ANGRY! IT'S BECAUSE WHEN YOUR SOUL LEFT YOUR BODY, YOUR HEART STOPPED BEATING! WE THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD!!!!" Yugi tried to crawl away, but was grabbed by the shoulders and shook roughly by Yami. "YUGI, IF YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN, I WILL DO MUCH MORE THAN HARSHLY CORRECT YOU!! I WILL BEAT YOU SENSELESS!!" Yugi had a headache. He rubbed his temples then explained what he saw. Yami held him up by the back collar of his jacket. "Yami, c'mon! That whole trip wasn't for nothing! I found out where Phoenix & Blade are! We can go confront 'em and demand to know what they are!" He said in a weak voice because of the pressure on his throat. Yami glared knives at him but was silent. Then Yami almost dropped him, but instead thought otherwise and set Yugi down as gently as he could manage in his fury. Yami then made a charter spell, which brought them back to the Mortal Realm. Yugi gasped and scrambled to get behind Joey who was staring at Yami with a questioning look. He was about to say something, but Yugi beat him to it. "JOEY! He went mad in the Shadow Realm! And I'm not just speaking figuratively, I mean LITERALLY! I think he's still got his pharaoh- like fury!" he practically disappeared behind Joey's back. Joey glared at Yami who returned the look. "Hey, what's the big idea?! Yugi looks like he's about to have a seizure! WHAD YOU DO TO 'EM?!!" Yami gave the angry Joey a cool look then explained he was ensuring the incident with Yugi leaving his body wouldn't happen again. Finally, Tea got sick of the ridiculous arguing. "Okay, everybody! I'm getting bored with this fight over something so idiotic! Yami, don't pick on Yugi! Joey, don't get so upset! Yugi! Quit being scared! And Kaiba!..." She said as she walked over to him and yanked the phone out of his hand. "Get your rear in gear! We have to find Phoenix and question her!" Kaiba growled in protest, but said nothing. So....everyone ended up trudging down the stairs of the hospital. They signed Ryou out and left swiftly. And Yugi made sure he was far away from Yami as possible.
