Chapter5: A Deadly Will
Yugi hung limp in the tight grasp of the large man that was carrying him. He would try to open his eyes every now and again to see where he was at, but it was no use, his vision was still blurry. He finally decided to give up and close his eyes. He couldn't understand why he was getting worse. It was as if all his senses were shutting down.
"Shouldn't this drug be wearing off by now?"
Yugi was beginning to get worried. Where were Yami and his puzzle, and why had his father brought him here.
His Father…
"Why couldn't he just leave me alone?"
Finally they came to a stop. Yugi decided to try to look around one more time. When he opened his eyes he saw nothing but blurry darkness.
"Where am I now?"
As soon as the thought ran through Yugi's head, a bright beam of golden light shot through the room causing Yugi to shut his eyes and let out a small groan. He was about to open his eyes when he heard an unfamiliar low voice.
"Welcome Yugi Motou, I've been expecting you."
The voice sent a chill down his spine. He was about to open his mouth to say something but realized he couldn't. It scared him. He was more paralyzed now then he was a minute ago.
"You're probably wondering who I am."
Yugi could sense the mysterious man moving closer to him. Yugi was able to open his eye for a second to see who was approaching. The man was wearing a large black cape with tight fitting black shirt and pants under the cape. His hair was a bright red color that was cut to his shoulder in large locks. Yugi could finally sense the man's presence in front of him. The man reached his hand up and grabbed Yugi by the chin and held his head up to face his own face.
"And since you can't ask, I'll answer it for you," he said as he dropped Yugi's head allowing it to hang down again. Yugi felt a pain shoot through his neck as it fell back down into it's hanging position. He was also beginning to felt a pain around his waist were the muscled man was holding him, but he also noticed another pain that he couldn't figure out the cause. A pain was starting to form in the middle of his chest.
"My name is Mr. Toton, an expert aerologist for 20 years and also very good at getting my way. For instances, it was very simple to get your father to retrieve you. All I had to do was put his wife in danger and he was like putty in my hands. Poor Peter, he really didn't want to do it, but I gave him no choice. I suppose it was his own fault thought. He made a bad decision 8 years ago.
Yugi opened one eye and looked up at Mr. Toton, but couldn't hold it open for long. The pain in his chest was starting to grow and was causing him to have a headache.
"Oh…I see. So I touched on a nerve. Oh yes. Eight years ago is when your mother and father left you. How did I know that you ask? Well…I guess you could say that that is my fault as well."
"I'm sure your egger to hear this so I won't leave you waiting. Eight years ago I received a phone call from your father looking for work, well of course I was only happy to give him a job. I always have a job opening for someone to do my biding for me, but your father failed to understand that once he and Katharine joined with me, they were joined for life. They simply thought they would be digging for artifacts for me for a little while, but they were sadly mistaken. When Peter and Katharine's job was done, likes fools they thought they could just leave. They failed to realize that the contract they had signed with me was for life. They were so egger to find work that they failed to look over the contract. I knew they had a son so I told them that they had a choice. They could either continue with our contract and leave all that was perish, which would be of course you, behind them and no harm would come to you, or they could ignore the contract, go home, and never see you again. So they decided that the only way to insure your safety was to leave and never come back."
"See, all stories end happily…you were safety and I got to new servant."
Yugi's heart sank deep into chest and a silent tear fell from his closed eye. He didn't know what to say, but I guess it was a good thing because he couldn't really talk.
"After all this years, after all the lies and the hoping that one day my parents would come back. It's his fault. He ruined my life. He took everything from me and now he has my Millennium Puzzle. No…I won't let him take Yami away from me. I won't!"
Yugi willed all his energy that he had left to try to talk. He had to know his puzzle was.
"Err…Where's my…p..puzzle?"
Mr. Toton turned around to look at Yugi. He was amazed that the boy had spoken, but then again he found it amusing hearing the struggle in his voice. It amused him that he had used all his energy that he had worked so hard to contain on asking where his puzzle was.
"Why Yugi, Mr. Toton said with a smile, is it really worth your last bit of energy to know where your puzzle is?"
Yugi didn't say anything. He was back paralyzed.
"Well, if it's that important to you then I'll show it to you," Mr. Toton said as he pointed off into the darkness, where a bright light soon shot down illuminating the Millennium puzzle and sending the rest of the room back into darkness.
"There it is Yugi, take a look, but, oh that's right, you can't. You used all your energy just asking where it was."
Yugi felt anger flow over him. He wanted to talk. He wanted to be able to see his puzzle, his Yami, but he couldn't, thanks to Mr. Toton. He wanted to know what was going now. He hated being like this, and all the anger he was feeling wasn't helping the pain in his chest, in fact it making it worse.
Yugi opened his mouth and tried to say something.
"W…why…
"Why, you ask?" Mr. Toton asked as he gazed at the Millennium Puzzle with an eerie look in his eyes.
"I need its power. It's the key.
"Key to what?" Yugi thought
"You see Yugi, the reason I brought you here is becomes I need you and your puzzle. For years I've been reading stone tablets about the Pharaoh and the Millennium items, but also about a secret power that the Pharaoh himself locked away in inside a large door somewhere in Egypt. For years I have been searching for this power and now I have finally found it, however, like any door, it requires a key. And do you know what that key is Yugi?"
Mr. Toton looked over at Yugi and then reached towards the puzzle and picked it up.
"It's your puzzle."
As soon as Mr. Toton picked up the puzzle it began to glow bright beams of light. Mr. Toton shielded his eyes with his arm and continued to hold tight to the puzzle. A light energy began to flow from the puzzle and made the form of a person. As soon as the light died off Mr. Toton put his arm down and looked in the direct where the energy had formed, but he was surprised to find the face of the anger Pharaoh looking back at him.
Yami looked straight into Mr. Toton's eyes.
"Who are you and what are you doing with the Millennium Puzzle?" Yami said angrily
Mr. Toton quickly disposed of his surprised look and replaced it with a grin.
"So good of you to join us Pharaoh, my name is Mr. Toton."
"What is it you want Toton?!"
"I want your Will."
~~At the Domino Airport~~
A loud announcement came over the speakers: Flight B6 now boarding for Egypt.
"Come on Tea, Joey said as he walked to board the airplane, if you don't hurry we're going to miss our flight!"
Tristan was behind Tea pushing her along as quickly as he could. "Come on Tea, pick up the pace."
"Aww…I don't see why we have to fly to Egypt! Why can't we ride the bus?"
"A bus, Ryou said scratching his head, to Egypt?"
"Don't worry, Solomon said as he gave his ticket to the woman at the boarding entrance, it won't be so bad."
Tea gritted her teeth as Tristan gave the woman his and her tickets and pushed Tea onto the plane.
Tea closed her eyes as Tristan plopped her into the isle seat beside him, Ryou and Solomon took the next two seats behind them and Joey sat in the next seat behind them.
The engines on the plane suddenly roared to life causing Tea to jump and latch a hold Tristan's arm.
"Ahhh…Tea, get a grip, we haven't even started to move yet."
"I do have a grip and I don't plan on letting it go anytime soon," she said as she began to squeeze tighter.
Tristan made a pained face as he tried to pull Tea off.
Joey sighed at the two of them and leaned back and closed his eyes.
"Please Yugi, be ok when we found you."
~~Back in Egypt~~
"My Will," Yami repeated giving Mr. Toton a puzzled look.
"Yes," he said as he tossed the puzzle up and down in his hand.
"Why do you need my Will?"
" I need to open that door over there. Behind that door is a power great enough to bring me all seven Millennium items, if it is used properly. Luckily, I know how to use it. You see Yami; the puzzle is the key to unlocking the door. To open it I have to place the puzzle into that triangular lock on the door…
"Then why haven't you done it already, Yami said in a anger voice, you have the puzzle."
"I have to have your Will to open the door otherwise the magic barrier around the door won't break, after all, it was you who placed it there over 5,000 years ago."
Yami was getting tried of asking questions and not getting the answers he wanted. He was getting worried about Yugi. He wanted to see Yugi. He wanted to make sure he was ok. Yami began to look around, he could feel him around somewhere, besides, it was the only way that he could come out of the puzzle, but it was to dark, he couldn't see anything.
"I'll never give you my Will!"
"You don't think that I would make it that simple for you…Mr. Toton began to say, but was quickly cut off by Yami.
"Well, let me make it simple for you, he said as his anger began to raise, I don't care what is behind that door and I don't care how you plan to open it! All I care about is what you've done to my aibou!
"Where is he Toton?!" Yami demanded
Toton was angered by Yami's outburst but grinned anyway.
"You mean little Yugi," Toton said as he pointed his finger and a light shown down on top of the large man that was holding a limp Yugi.
"YUGI!!"
"Grrr…What did you do to him Toton?!"
"You mean besides the sleeping and paralyzing drug that was on that white cloth."
Yami clutched his fist and made a low growling noise at Toton.
"Don't test me Toton!"
Toton smiled at the Pharaoh's angered expression and then continued.
"There was also another drug on the cloth. It's called the 24hour drug."
"What does it do?" Yami asked
"It kills its victim within 24hours of exposure if the antidote isn't introduced before then. So I would say he has about 30 minutes left."
"What?!"
Yami was about to say something when he heard Yugi let out a low groan.
"I'll make you a deal Yami, Mr. Toton said as he put his hand into his pocket and pulled out a syringe, if you give me your Will to open that door, then I'll make sure your aibou gets this.
Yami looked at Yugi's pained face in horror and then to the large door. Then he looked at Toton with a defeated frown.
"Grrr…Take it!"
Toton looked pleased as he threw the syringe to the man holding Yugi.
"Don't give him the antidote until the door begins to open."
/Y…Yami/
//Yugi!! Hang on. You'll be getting that antidote soon//
/Yami…you can let…Toton…open that…door/
//But if I don't you'll…//
/It…doesn't matter…er/
//No…I won't let anything happen to you. Giving up my Will for a second won't kill me but if you don't get that antidote that drug will kill you//
Toton walked over to the door and put the puzzle into the lock. The puzzle began to glow and Yami could feel his energy draining. He dropped to his knees and then looked up at Yugi. The large man was now sticking the syringe in the side of Yugi's neck.
//You'll be…ok now Yugi//
But Yugi didn't responded.
After the man was done injecting the antidote into Yugi he drop him to the ground and then disappeared into the shadows. Yami looked at his aibou lying on the ground breathing hard. Yami crawled on his knees over to Yugi and put his head into his lap. Yami was losing his energy fast. Yugi opened one eye and looked up at Yami. Yugi was about to say something when Yami put his finger over his mouth.
"Shhh…you have to save your energy."
Yugi then began to talk anyway. "You have to…save your…energy too."
The puzzle then stopped glowing and the door began to swing open.
"This is it, Toton said as he stepped into the room behind the door, the power inside is all mine!"
Yugi then looked up at Yami and then closed his eyes and passed out.
"Yugi…Yami called out to him, but he was weak too and then he felt all of his energy flow out of him and he was pulled back inside the puzzle.
Mr. Toton then went and stood over Yugi's lifeless body and left out an evil laugh.
"No one can stop me now!"
Nightlight5: **lets out a sigh** Wow…that chapter really took it out of me.
Yugi: Yeah…it took it out of me too. **bites a piece of pizza**
Nightlight5: Hey! Where did you get that?
Yugi: Yami gave it to me.
Nightlight5: Well, is there any left?
Yugi: Nope. I got the last piece.
Nightlight5: That pizza looks tasty.
Yugi: O.O My pizza! **runs off**
Nightlight5: Come on Yugi. Just a bite. **runs off**
Joey: Well, I guess I'll end the chapter. Thanks for reading. Please R&R
Nightlight5: Joey! Get away from my computer!
Joey: Ah…got to go…bye.
