The morning was uneventful. Yami was now helping Yugi into a suit them had bought for him for the trial. Yami was dressed in his and was now helping Yugi into his. Yami smiled at Yugi's nervous face.
"Hey there is no need to worry Yugi everything will be just fine." Yugi smiled. He grabbed Yami's hand and they went to find Bakura. Bakura was also getting dress in his suite. Yugi smiled and let go of Yami's hand and ran over to Bakura and hugged him.
"Ready to go 'Kura?" Bakura smiled and patted his head.
"Almost Yugi." Bakura said tying his tie. Yugi smiled at Bakura and waited. Once Bakura and Yami were finished they all got in the car and headed over to the court. Yugi kept fidgeting in his suit.
"I don't like wearing this." Yugi said pouting. Bakura smiled.
"Here let me see." Yugi faced Bakura. Bakura looked at his suite and loosened it up a little. Yugi smiled and sat back in his seat.
"Thanks 'Kura!" Yugi chirped.
"Anytime." When they reached the court Liz was waiting outside. She smiled as she saw Yami's car. When they got out of their car Bakura took Yugi's hand and they all went over. Yami was talking to Liz about what questions they might be asking and being asked. Yami grew worried. He looked over at Yugi who was playing with Bakura. Yami gave a sad smiled. 'I hate to see hi go through this.' Yami thought. Yugi smiled and ran over to Yami.
"When does it start, Yami?" Yami smiled.
"Lets go wait inside it's going to start soon." Yami said talking Yugi's hand and leading him inside. Yugi nodded and walked inside with Yami and Bakura right behind him. They all sat down behind the bench. Liz also went over and sat down next to them.
"My Yugi you sure look good." Liz said.
"Thanks! So do you!" Yugi said smiling. Liz smiled and gave him a small hug.
"Order!" The judge called out. "Case between Yugi Jakan and Mr. John Jakan will now start." The judge said as everyone got in their seats. (Ok I'm not very good at this type of thing so I'm going to try my best ) "Will Ms. Elizabeth call her first witness." Liz got up and walked around the bench. Yugi and the gang watched her.
"I'd like to call Sarah up to the stand." She went though the oath and was ready for answering. "Ok Sarah how do you know the boy Yugi?"
"I know him from the orphanage."
"What would you describe him as?"
"He was very scared when I first met him. He wouldn't talk and was very fearful and untrusting."
"Can you point to the boy that you described?" Sarah nodded and pointed to Yugi. "Thank you that's all." The other lawyer got up from Yugi's father's side. Yami made sure Yugi couldn't see his father. Yami always sat at and angel so he couldn't see him.
"Ok Sarah did you know anything from Yugi's past?"
"No sir they didn't tell me anything."
"They?"
"The police that brought him."
"Ah so you don't know if he was abused or hurt from his father do you?"
"No sir."
"So someone else could of hurt Yugi then they brought Yugi to a orphanage under suspicion?"
"That could be possible."
"No more questions."
"Ok call your next witness Ms. Elizabeth." The judge said.
"Ok my next witness is Gary the police man." Gary got up and walked up to the bench. Yugi smiled when he saw him. "Ok Gary how did you find Yugi?"
"I went to a club to see if there was any under aged people in there. Mr. Jakan came up to me and wondered if I wanted to buy little Yugi."
"So Mr. Jakan was selling his underage son?"
"Yes ma'am."
"Was Yugi hurt?"
"Yes ma'am."
"How so?"
"He had scars all over his body and some were still fresh. Most likely from a whip and a knife of some kind."
"Thank you that is all." Once again the other lawyer got up and asked questions.
"Did you actually see Mr. Jakan hurt Yugi?"
"No I didn't."
"So once again you don't know if it was him or maybe a person off the street?"
"No I don't know for sure, but he was selling his underage son." The other lawyer winced slightly knowing that was bad for there side.
"No more questions." The lawyer sat down. Gary got up and winked at Yugi making him smile.
"Next witness." The judge said.
"I'd like to call to the stands Paul." Liz said. Yugi looked at Paul as Paul shameful looked away. "How do you know this boy?"
"I was his neighbor." He said not looking at Yugi.
"Did you ever see Mr. Jakan hit Yugi?"
"Yes I did."
"How often?"
"Every day there was yelling and screaming. I could hear Yugi's screams every night followed by a whip like sound. I saw him hit and tie Yugi up in the back yard. For goodness sakes he was only a child." Yugi looked at Paul. Yami pulled Yugi into a hug as they listened.
"Did you ever see anything else?"
"Yes I did. Mr. Jakan was part of this cult. He oftenly invited members over and they did things to Yugi." Yugi looked down and Yami tightened his grip.
"What kind of things?"
"They made Yugi kill and they oftenly had sex with the young boy." Paul said looking down.
"Do you have anything to say to Yugi?"
"Judge this has nothing to do with the case." Mr. Jakan's lawyer said.
"I'll allow it if Mr. Paul wishes to answer."
"Yes I do. I want to say I'm sorry I couldn't help him. And I hope that he has a great life because he deserves it."
"That will be all." Once again the other lawyer got up.
"Why didn't you tell anyone Mr. Paul?"
"Because Mr. Jakan threatened me. He told me if I told he would kill my children."
"No questions." The lawyer said sitting down. He growled, as things weren't going in his favor.
"Do you have any other witnesses?"
"No sir."
"Ok Mr. Duku call your first witness."
"I'd like to call Sister Rose." Sister Rose got up when she passed Yugi she glared at him. "Ok Sister Rose how do you know Yugi?"
"He was in my orphanage."
"What was he like there?" Sister Rose smiled.
"He was always calling for his father. He cried at night asking for him. He was so heart broken when no one would let him." Yugi shook his head. Yami held Yugi close. Yugi hid his face in Yami's shirt not wanting to hear her lies.
"Was Yugi a good boy?"
"Not really most of the time he got into trouble. He tried to escape a couple of times."
"Thank you that will be all." Liz got up and started to ask her questions.
"Did you ever hurt Yugi wither he was bad or not?"
"No never."
"Do you realize you are under oath Sister Rose?"
"Yes I do."
"What if I told you that I have eye witnesses that say you whipped Yugi bad or good. Even Mr. Moto here has see it including his friends."
"I say it's a lie."
"Sister Rose there are eye witnesses we can not use your words. Jury please forget every thing Sister Rose has said." The Judge said. "You are excused." Sister growled at Yugi as she left. Yugi just hugged tighter to Yami. Yami glared at her. "I think you own Yugi an apology Sister Rose." The judge said. Yugi looked nervous.
"No sir that's ok." Yugi said hiding his face in Yami's shirt. The Judge smiled sadly at Yugi.
"Sister Rose?"
"Sorry." She grumbled as she left.
"Ok now Mr. Duku who would you like to call?"
"I'd like to call Mr. Moto." Yami looked down at Yugi.
"Here Bakura take Yugi." Yami said handing Bakura the scared boy. Bakura sat Yugi in his lap and gently rubbed circles in his back.
"Mr. Moto why did you want to get a child?"
"Because I thought my house was just to big for us."
"Us?"
"Yes me, Bakura, and the other maids. My house is huge." Yami said confidently.
"Have you ever hurt Yugi?"
"Never."
"What about the scar on his forehead?"
"He slipped and fell on my watch when we were swimming."
"What about that manic that's holding Yugi right now?"
"Mr. Duku one more slip and you are gone got it?!" The Judge said.
"No noone at my house as every hurt Yugi."
"No more questions." Mr. Duku growled.
"Ok Yami who did Yugi first act when you got him?"
"He was scared and refused to talk."
"What has changed since then?"
"He smiles and laughs. He talks and runs around like a child should." Yami said smiling at Yugi. Yugi smiled back.
"Thank you Yami that is all."
"Call your next witness Mr. Duku."
"I call Mr. Jakan." Yami picked up Yugi and held him. Yugi saw his father and started to scream.
"Would you like a couple of minuets to calm him down Mr. Moto?" The Judge asked. Yami nodded and picked up Yugi and carried him out of the room with Bakura following him.
"Shh...Yugi it's ok." Yami said holding the trembling Yugi.
"I don't want to go back in there Yami." Yugi whimpered.
"Be brave Yugi. Just hang on 'till this is over and remember that Bakura and I won't let him hurt you again. Ok?" Yami said whipping a tear from Yugi cheek. Yugi sniffed and nodded. Yami smiled and picked Yugi up and carried him back in the room. Yugi hid his face from his father.
"Ok Mr. Jakan did you ever hurt Yugi?"
"Well we need money for food and Yugi had actually suggested that he sell his body. I always loved him. He's my whole world." He said fake tears falling down his cheeks.
"That's all."
"Mr. Jakan if you loved your son why did you allow him to sell his body? If you loved him you would have rejected."
"I did tell him no but he escaped from the house and did it any way." Liz looked disgusted.
"No more questions."
"Next witness."
"Yes last one. I call Yugi Jakan to the stand."
DUN DUN DUN!!! PLEZ R&R THANX!!!
"Hey there is no need to worry Yugi everything will be just fine." Yugi smiled. He grabbed Yami's hand and they went to find Bakura. Bakura was also getting dress in his suite. Yugi smiled and let go of Yami's hand and ran over to Bakura and hugged him.
