Chapter 3: Collision Of Bodies

It was non-other than Tristan.
"What are you doing here Taylor?" Kaiba asked picking the boy with pointed hair up by the collar of his school uniform.
"Kaiba! Put me down! I just came to tell you Yugi asked for you!" Kaiba threw Tristan down on the green-carpeted floor.
"Why?" Kaiba stared hard at Tristan.
"I don't know. But he's in real pain. He's gotten worse in the last hour..." Tristan pulled himself up and sat in a black leather lazy boy.
"What are you waiting for? Let's get going." Kaiba said in a causal voice.
"Ok..." Tristan stood up. Together they entered the pink limo. 'Weird' Tristan said mentally.
"Taylor think of it as a privilege that my men didn't kill you..."
"Uh...Kaiba?"
"What is it Taylor?" Kaiba asked in an annoyed tone.
"Why is the limo pink?"
"Because Mokuba's and my limo are broken." Kaiba stared out the limo window.
"Kaiba?"

"Shut it Taylor before I kick you out of this car and you have to walk to Yugi's house!" Tristan just sulked.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----

"Yugi wake up!" Tea cried. Not even a groan. His face was ghostly pale and Yami was just starting to wake up.

^ Inside the puzzle ^

//Huh...Yugi are you ok? // Yami withdrew from his soul room and entered Yugi's. It was covered in a thick red liquid. Not paint. //BLOOD! //
Yami ploughed through the thick blood. But whose blood is it?
//Yugi! // Yami called out for his aibu. No sound came back. Yami slushed through the blood. 'God! Please let Yugi be ok!' Yami saw a hand in the thick liquid. //YUGI! // Yami ran, or tried to and found the hand. He pulled his aibu's body out of the blood. Cradling Yugi in his arms he carried him off to his own empty soul room.

^ Outside the puzzle ^

"Yugi please be ok?" Tea pleaded.
"Yug is gonna be fine! He always is!" Joey said with tears in his eyes.
"Crying Wheeler. It doesn't suit you! Crying like the dog you are!" Kaiba tried to joke, but even Mokuba, who enjoyed his brothers taunting of Joey, shot him a dirty look.
"Seto that was low..." Mokuba said turning away from his brothers' gaze.
"Mokuba..."
"Listen I came to get you so you could help Yugi! NOT SO YOU COULD INSULT JOEY!" Tristan yelled gripping Kaiba by the collar.
"Huh..." Kaiba removed the hands binding him and walked over to Yugi.

"No! Stop! Don't leave me alone!" Yugi began to cry in his sleep.
"That's all he's been muttering since," Trista closed her eyes and her face fell into her hands.
"YUG! WAKE UP!" Joey picked Yugi up by the collar and started to shake him.
"Wheeler you're going to kill him doing that!" Kaiba shoved Joey to the ground. He tucked Yugi back into bed and called his doctors to come and take a look at Yugi.

^ In the puzzle ^

//Yugi please wake up! // Yami pleaded shaking Yugi gently.
Yugi coughed up blood and looked up to see Yami. With a shaky hand he gripped Yami's. /Yami...I don't know why.../ Yugi stuttered weakly.
//Take it easy, / Yami sighed with relief.
/I'm sorry. The power too overwhelming.../ Yugi's head fell limp against Yami's arm.
//You just rest now...// Yami placed Yugi down on the ground.

^ Outside puzzle ^

"Yugi please wake up soon!" Tea pleaded.
"Calm down Gardner, the doctors are on their way," Kaiba sat down and listened to Yugi's ragged breathing. 'Motou you better not die on me! You hear!' Kaiba found himself thinking.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------

Kaiba stood outside and started to pound the sidewalk.
"Seto are you alright?" Kari asked looking at his hands. His knuckles were covered in fresh blood.
"Nothing's wrong," Kaiba replied.
"Let's get you inside..." Kari took Kaiba by the arm and pulled him into the house.
"Fine." Kaiba just let Kari pull him into the house.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------

"Yugi please wake up soon?" Tea wrapped an arm around his body.
"Tea you should eat something..." Lily protested.
"I can't! I see him hooked up to all these machines and I can't eat. It feels like I want to throw up." Tea pulled herself up from the bed.
"Com'n let's go get you something to eat..." Lily pulled Tea by the arm.
Once Tea left the room Yugi moaned, "em...someone help!"

^ In the puzzle ^

//Yugi I hope you will be ok, // Yami paced up and down as he watched a sleeping Yugi asleep on a bed in his soul room. 'To think this used to be full of toys, now there's just dried up blood...' Yami though mentally.
/Y-Yami, t-thank you for helping me... / Yami rushed over to Yugi's side.
//Yugi? //
/Thank you Yami? / Yugi's eyes closed again.
//Sleep peacefully...// Yami ran his hand against Yugi's forehead. 'No fever,' Yami sighed with relief.

^ Outside the puzzle ^

Yami's transparent body watched over Yugi who was attached to machines.
"Doctor?" Tea asked.
"Yes young lady?"
"Do you know when he'll wake up?"
"I don't know. He may never wake up. What happened to him?" The doctor eyed her suspiciously.
"I-I don't know..." Tea's eyes filled with tears.
"Ok," the doctors face softened, "I'll leave you and your friends to your own business," the doctor left the room, but not before refilling the fluid bag.
"Thank you." Tea said before the doctor left.
"Your welcome."
"For Ra's sake! A doctor isn't going to help Yugi!" Marik came in dragging his Yami with him.
"Marik!" Joey screamed.
"What is it Wheeler?" Marik asked.
"What are you doing here?" Joey asked angrily.
"I am here for one purpose, to bring Yugi out of his coma. And I need Ryou's help." Marik sifted a glance toward Ryou. A bright glow surrounded Ryou and he turned into Ryou.
"Leave now..." a deeper voice came from Ryou's mouth. He wasn't Ryou anymore though. He was Yami Bakura also known as Bakura.
"Yami are you prepared to go through with this?" Marik asked. The others stared he was talking to nothing.
"Yes..." Yami replied.
"Are you sure?" Bakura asked.
"Yeah I am..." Yami began to get annoyed.
"It will be painful for both of you."
"I'm sure Marik!" Yami stood there, angry tears welled up in his eyes.
"Ok, time to start, enter back in the puzzle..." Bakura instructed.
"Fine..." Yami withdrew back into the puzzle.
"RETURN THIS MORTAL BACK TO US! RELEASE HIM FROM HIS BIND! GIVE HIM UP TO THE POWERS! NO MATTER HOW OR WHAT SIDE THEY ARE ON!" Marik and Bakura chanted. Yugi howled in pain as fire completely surrounded his body. Yami howled in pain within the puzzle. ^ In the puzzle ^

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The fire stopped and Yami fell to the floor on his knees. He slowly made it over to Yugi who was unconscious and burned all over.
"Y-Yugi..." Yami collapsed at Yugi's side.

^ Outside the puzzle ^

Yugi had no burn marks on his body.
"Yugi" Tea cried angrily pulling Marik up by the collar. "What have you done to him?"
"He is just fine..." Malik replied calmly.
"Than why is he bleeding from the arm and mouth?!"
"Uh oh...We made a mistake...RUN!" Marik yelled and ran away with Bakura in hand.
"GET BACK HERE!"

***********************************************************************

"Let me handle this..." a calm, soothing voice filled the room.
"W-who's there?" Tea asked angrily pulling her body protectivly over Yugi's body.
"Do not be afraid..." a golden body came out of the wall.
"Arora!" Lily turned into Luna.
"Luna!" They ran and gave each other a hug.
"What?" Joey, Tea, Tristan, Kari and Mokuba stood there confused.
"Yeah, 5000 years ago, even though Yami may not have his memory, I do. Arora, even though she is not a Yami was the one who gave me the healing power I hold. It's cool, I haven't seen you in years!"
"WHAT?!"
"Yeah," Luna replied, "Arora is my best friend other than Lily. It's really cool."
Arora (A/N: Warery_Angel owns Arora! ME!) had long brown hair, deep green eyes, and was as tall as Seto Kaiba. She wore a smiple pink summer dress with her hair done up in a bun.
"Luna I need you and your aibu's help. If we want to heal her brother than we have to work together," Arora pulled out a small golden heart.
"Arora are you sure?" Luna asked worried.
Arora just nodded and replied "Yes. This is the only thing I can do to help. Don't worry, my powers have been building up a lot. I have extra reserves."
"Ok, let's get started..."
"Beware, this will take a lot out of you and your aibu," Arora warned.
//Lily do you want to do this?//
/Yes, if it saves my brother, / Lily's eyes filled with tears as she said this.
"We're sure!"
"Okay," Arora took her hand and Luna placed a hand over Yugi's heart.
"LIGHT OF LOVE, FAMILY AND FRIENDSHIP! COME FORTH!" Once Luna and Arora chanted a golden glow filled Yugi inside and out. After the light disapeared Luna turned back into Lily who fell backward into Tea.
"You ok Lily?" Tea asked.
"Can...you...take...me...to...my...bed?" Lily asked.
"Yeah, come on let's go!" Tea put her arm around Lily and left the room.
"What about Yug?" Joey asked.
"Let him sleep, he should wake up soon. Make sure he stays in bed! He won't be up to moving around for a bit since his own blood filled his soul room. And what Bakura and Marik did, well you get it."
"I understand," Joey replied. "Hey want me to go make some spagetti?"

"YEAH! LUNCH!"
"Ok, Mokuba, Kari want to help?"
"Sure Joey!" Mokuba said and pulled his sister toward the kitchen along with Joey.
"Yeah! Spagetti!"
"Hey Trista, hows Trina?"
"Oh, my yami? Doing good!" Trista and Arora went to Lily's room. Tea went to the living room to settle down for a bit.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------

Seto Kaiba once again found himself staring at the lap top with no ideas.
"Kaiba you gotta eat!" Joey protested.
"I know..." Kaiba shot Joey a small smile.
"I'll bring you outa plate..." Joey ran into the kitchen and put it infront of Kaiba knowing he would eat it soon.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------

Lily just started to wake up and fouind Luna sitting down beside her bed.
/Hey... /
//I'm glad your awake. Yami is still asleep. Yugi is too. //
/Is he ok? /
//Yes. //
/That's good! / Lily said.
//Your brother better not try that again...//
/Why? What will happen? / Lily sat up with a pained expression.
//Lay down, you're not ready to get up yet. And to answer you question, he would die right away if he tried that!//'
/We just won't let him!/ Lily said.
"Hey Lily. You hungry?" Joey asked.
"Yeah a little." Lily replied.
"Hey Lily. Joey made a really great lunch!" Tea said with a plate in her hand. She walked in and handed it to Lily.
"Thanks. Is Yugi awake yet?" Tea and Joey nodded there head no.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------

Kaiba studied Yugi's body. (No not in that way!) It was so pale, but he was getting colour back.
//Yugi please wake up soon... // Yami paced around the room.
"Motou if you can hear me...you ain't dying on me! You hear! You're the only one I truly like to duel, and I-I want to be your friend," Seto said. That's something you would only hear hiim say when he's alone. But he wasn't.
//Wow, Seto Kaiba does want to be our friend! //
"Yugi wake up before I make you!" Seto's voice sharp but saddened.
"Em..." Yugi moaned but didn't wake up.
