Chapter 13: Yami to the rescue

Back at the game shop Yami was starting to worry, for it has now been 3 days since Yugi was taken and still no sign of Yugi, well the only sign Yami ever gotten or received was when Akero would hit, slap or torture Yugi for something.

"Hold on Aibou, I'll get you back I promise" whispers Yami. "Yami" calls a voice. So Yami looks only to notice the gang. "Well get Yugi back promise" replies Kaiba. "Yeah" chirps Marik. (( what made you decide to help)) questions Malik to his other. (when I heard about Yugi's childhood) answers Marik. "Tell me Kaiba why have you've decided to help" asks Ishizu.

"Um...because Yugi is my friend" answers Seto. And so with no further complaints Seto motions for everyone to follow him into his limo and then off to Kaiba Corp. Once their Kaiba searches the entire Domino city area until he stumbles upon something.

"I think I found him" answers Kaiba, as he prints out the address. Once printed everyone leaves Kaiba Corp and drives off until they come to a place called 1515 N. Egyptian rd. (A/N: Ok, I have no clue what kind of names for streets they have so I'm guessing with the streets).

Upon arriving, Yami tells the group something, "Yugi's here" before running from the car and up to the house. "Yami" calls Mai, as she tries to halt Yami from doing something dumb. "Baka Pharaoh" growls Bakura, as they run after Yami before something happened to him. After everyone is together Joey and Tristan barge down the door.

Once in they walk down the empty halls until they hear yelling, so they run to place only to find Akero yelling at a bruised and battered Yugi. "You disobedient child I said lemonade not this" shouts Akero, as she throws the glass cup to a wall before slapping Yugi across the cheek.

As Akero slapped him, she heard a gasp, which came from Tea and Serenity as they noticed Yugi, and the state he was in. When Akero heard that she slapped him again which sent him to the floor. Just as she was about to advance towards a frighten Yugi, Yami goes up to her and grabs her hand. "No one touches my Hikari" growls Yami as he let's go. After stopping Akero, Ryou speaks up "Let Yugi go."

"I think not, you'll only get him back if you win in a duel" replies Akero, as she looks to her pitiful son as he holds his red cheek. "Oh I'll beat you alright and set my light free" replies Yami. "Fine, Yugi show them to the arena I'll be waiting, and if you screw this one up you'll receive worst then a simple slap" replies Akero before disappearing from sight.

Once Akero left Yami and them, Yami turns to Yugi and tries to walk over to him but all Yugi does is back away from him. "Yugi it's ok I'm here to help you" says Yami in a soft voice. But Yugi doesn't seem to buy into it and backs away even further. "Yugi it's us your friends" replies Mai to the frighten teen before them.

"I have no friends, Mama says I don't have friends that I'm bad and that's why Papa left us" cries Yugi. "She's wrong Yugi were your friends" answers Bakura, who felt sorry for the young Hikari. While crying, Yugi hadn't realized the timing until he heard Mokuba ask about the dueling arena.

"Hurry, the arena is this way" replies Yugi, as he motion's for them to follow. Once over at the arena Akero and Yami begin, there shadow game.
