Great Changes
Yami swung quickly around as his title was called out. 'Who said that spirit?' Yugi choked and a wave of nausea hit Yami in the pit of his stomach. 'I don't know but it doesn't sound like they are greatly pleased with me. And you really shouldn't be talking anyway. Go back to sleep so you can get better!' Yami replied and searched for where the sound came from. However, the teacher was the first to rise. He walked to the door, "Excuse me but I don't tolerate such shouting. I'm afraid I'll have to report you to the principal." He looked around the room and then signaled for Yami/Yugi to come over. "Yes?" Yami asked acting like Yugi would originally act. "Yugi, bring these students to the principal's office immediately! I want them out of my classroom!" "Yes Mr. Apfelmen." Yami replied and then looked at the group. "Come." 'They seem so familiar but why? How would I know them if I haven't seen them at all, except for today?' 'Maybe it's your past?' Yugi replied, 'Why don't you introduce yourself to them?' Clearing his throat, Yami looked back at the strangers that were following behind him. They all had perplexed looks on their faces and were rather silent despite their interruption in the classroom. "My name is Yugi Moto and who might you be?" He looked back at them and then his eyes widened, "Saudi?! I didn't know you went to this school!" "Yugi, hmmm, strange because the Yugi I know is smaller than you. Wait a minute; you must be the spirit that resides in him!" He then pointed an accusing finger at the pharaoh, "Who are you and what are you doing enslaving the boy's mind for your own pleasure?" "Forgive me but I am not enslaving him. My real name is Yami but that's really all I know about myself. Yugi asked me to go to school for him today because he has taken ill. That is all so if you don't mind, please just leave it at that and introduce me to your friends." Yami answered tiredly, Yugi's sickness was starting to affect him as well. Saudi bowed slightly, "This is Simon, Teana and Jono and we come from Egypt. That is, Egypt five millennia ago. We are looking for. a man. an Egyptian that goes by the name Yami, the Pharaoh of Egypt." "Yes," Simon interrupted and pointed a finger at Yami, "You!!!" Everyone except for Simon and Yami, himself, were taken back at Simon's accusation. 'Well, they have found me but I'm not going to admit just yet who I am when I don't even know who they are. Or, that is, I don't really remember.' "You can't be serious Simon! That is the Pharaoh, the one who destroyed the games!! I don't see how? He looks to be just a boy!" Saudi coughed. "He does look like Yami though." Teana whispered. "Yeah minus all of the peasants clothes that he usually wore around the game arena." Jono added shrugging his shoulders. "But he can't be! Can he?" Saudi retorted stubbornly. "I have to agree with Saudi. I don't know who you really are but I can guarantee that I am no Pharaoh, just a boy who happens to be stuck in a hefty situation right now." Yami lied and then pushed open a door, "He's the principal's office. Enjoy." With that he walked swiftly out, leaving them in the clutches of the principal.
'Why didn't you tell them Yami?' Yugi asked and a wave of nausea hit Yami in the pit of his stomach again. 'Because I don't know that much about my past and I don't really remember them. I think that it might be wise to reveal myself to anyone just yet.' Yami replied tensely trying to keep his stomach but it failed. Jumping up from his chair, not even asking the teacher, he sped out in a hurry towards the bathroom. 'YUGI!!!'
Getting out of the principal's office; Saudi, Simon, Teana and Jono walked down the hallway confused at what the principal had said. They didn't even go to the school and already they were serving detention after school. Suddenly, they hear the door to the hallway open and Yugi/Yami hurried towards the bathroom. "Do you think he's okay?" Teana asked looking at the men. All shrugged their shoulders. "I guess we'll have to find out." Jono replied and headed towards the same bathroom that the stranger dashed into.
Flushing the toilet, Yami hung over the bowl and moaned. He did not really like the feeling of being sick and he was sure that Yugi wasn't thrilled about it either. "Yugi, that wasn't at all fun! How can I play you when you keep making me sick? What will happen when I become so sick that I can't play you? What then?" He said allowed, not caring if anyone heard or not. 'I'm sorry, I didn't mean to! I just wanted to talk to you but thanks, I feel a little better now.' Yugi replied sheepishly and a warmth washed over Yami. "I'm glad that you're happy, I'm not!" Yami growled and rose to his feet with great effort. His legs were as wobbly and shaky as the rest of his body. He knew that physically, he was dangerously weak. Nevertheless, he had to continue on with school. "Please try to refrain from doing that again. I need all of my strength just to get you past one day of school." With that, he pushed open the stall door and walked out. There, in front of him were the students from that morning. 'Had they heard everything?' He waved his hand and went over to the sink. Turning on the water, he looked over his shoulders at them, as he washed his hands, "How much of that did you hear?" "All, why?" The kid named Simon answered, crossing his arms over his chest. Moaning, Yami hit his head on the sink bar. 'I think that I'm really going to be sick!! Oh, this is not good!!' "Who are you really, Yami?" Simon prodded taking another step towards the shaking boy. "You're right, Simon. My name is Yami and I AM the Pharaoh but don't even ask. I wouldn't be of any use to you because I don't really remember anything about the past. My memory has faded." Yami stood up straighter and looked at Simon in the eyes, "Now, if you don't mind, I must get back to class before I bow to the porcelain goddess once more." Before Simon could say anything, Yami cut between them and walked back to class, holding his stomach.
"Are you alright?" Joey asked coming up to Yami as they started walking home. "Yeah, I'll be fine. It was really only an emotion, a feeling generated by Yugi. I'm not the one really sick, he is, remember." Yami said simply. "You still look very pale." Tea muttered touching Yami's shoulder. Yami flinched slightly but smiled reassuringly at Tea, "I know and I feel twice as bad but that's okay. I am stronger than Yugi so I can handle it." "What does he have? Do you know Yami?" Tristan asked looking down at Yami. "Influenza." Yami murmured, feeling a sickness wash over him as he said it.
"INFLUENZA!!!" Simon coughed and then darted a look of fear towards the others. "Oh this is truly terrible, Yami will die from this!! What are we going to do? How can we save him?" "Relax," Saudi said, placing a hand on Simon's shoulder, "He will be fine. They now have a cure for that so there is nothing to worry about. Come on, let's follow them." They were off again, trying to catch up to the group of friends yet also making sure that they stayed enough away to not give them away.
"Yugi, I need you to do the dishes for me!!" "Alright Gramps!!" Yami called walking into the house. "Then you need to dust off the drive way." Mr. Moto added and handed Yami a broom. Without any distaste, Yami went outside and started dusting off the drive way.
"What is this? This is a disgrace!!! The Pharaoh is CLEANING!!! WORKING!!! This is absolutely unheard of. I'm going to." Simon raged and started to move towards Yami. Saudi grabbed Simon's arm and pulled him back into cover. "Hold on there, things change Simon. He is no longer a king here. In this world, I'm afraid that Yami is only just an ordinary boy doing ordinary chores." "CHORES!!! That's servants' work not a king!!" Simon continued on his rampage. "Well, we had to." Jono and Teana responded together. "This is an outrage. To see the Pharaoh reduced to nothing but a servant. Man-kind will live to regret the day they did this." Simon mumbled finally settling down. "Calm down, this is only the beginning. Great changes are in the air and the odd behavior of the Pharaoh is only the beginning of many more to come." Saudi whispered and looked toward where the Pharaoh was doing his chores and he muttered quietly under his breath, "Great and terrible changes indeed."
Yami swung quickly around as his title was called out. 'Who said that spirit?' Yugi choked and a wave of nausea hit Yami in the pit of his stomach.

"Calm down, this is only the beginning. Great changes are in the air and the odd behavior of the Pharaoh is only the beginning of many more to come." Saudi whispered and looked toward where the Pharaoh was doing his chores and he muttered quietly under his breath, "Great and terrible changes indeed."
