Wow. Okay putting another chapter out. 5 hours before I head out the door and to the airport, but I figured why not? can't sleep. I'll get enough of that while trying to fight motion sickness on the airplane heh. To those of you who have posted and enjoyed the story, I just want to thank you. I do not share my work with many people. Yet my friend Ru, said I should. So I did, and it is turning out to be a pleasent experience. Anyhow. Lets get started, I have alot to write!!
Disclaimer: I don't own Yugioh. What I write is what is in my own thoughts. Though if I did.. Yugi would be all mine!
On to the show!
She slept soundly, The medications taking over and causing her to fall into a deep slumber. Yugi refused to elave her side. Rather he sat in a chair adjacent her bed, hands were folded within his lap, that head bowed slightly as he fought off sleep. He couldn't sleep while someone out there.. while they got away with trying to harm her! It was unimaginable! Two days had passed and Tea had been in and out of conciousness, and he had not left her side unless Joey or Tristan came to sit with her. They had chatted and spoke of things. Yet she seemed to treat him like a stranger for the most part. He told them of their relationship, of school, even of duel monsters, yet nothing had seemed to break through the darkness surrounding her. It was a bit fustrating yet Yugi had the utmost faith, things would work out, He would have his Tea back. At least.. She was safe now....
Knocking upon the door would cause Yugi to raise that head and peer at the one staring back at him, then a cheerful smile would bloom upon those features. "Malik! Hello come in! I am so glad you could make it." Yugi nearly leapt from his chair to u sher the other boy in. Malik had been the one to find Tea in an abandoned warehouse while he scouted places to set up a private duel arena. Luckily he had stumbled upon the injured and unconcious girl before anything else had happened to her. Yugi would always be in his debt..
Within his soul room Yami frowned, those crimson eyes narrowing slightly... There was something about the boy. He just could not place his finger upon it. Yet he was not as naieve to trust anyone other then Yugi and his true friends. He felt as if, Malik hid something. His eyes were never quite as sincere, though many might not notice this. For the moment though he kept his concerns to himself. It would be foolish to upset Yugi, after all Malik had found Tea... A bit of a twinge in his own 'heart' as he thought of the girl. He had failed in protecting her, and she had become hurt! He would find vengence, He would destroy those whom tresspassed upon her soul... The love Yugi felt for Tea.. Could only mirrored by Yami's own heart, for they were one.
Lavendar eyes lit up as a false smile would be displayed to Yugi, Fool. He had let the wolf in under the guise of sheeps clothing. It would only be a matter of time before he could set his plans in motion once more. He hadn't been wise in his last plan, thus having to abandon it. Yet perhaps this would turn out for the better, He could get into their little circle. Become closer with all of them, study their weakness, their strengths. Then he could push forward on his plan. He would be the victor over his enemy. Yugi had been speaking to him, causing Malik to snap to attention. "Oh. I am sorry. I live near the high school. I planned on starting at Domino in a week or so, once all my paperwork came in from Egypt." He ran his fingers through that platinum hair after a moment a bit of a blush touching those tanned cheeks. "My sister is enrolling me." His eyes turned to the girl now as she lay their unconcious. "How is she doing? She was delerious when I found her."
Yugi's smile faltered as discussion turned to Tea, and he approached her bed once more to sit next it, his hand sliding within her own limp one to squeeze it gently. "She is doing better. Thank you for finding her Malik.. I .. I don't know what I would have done if she hadn't been brought home safely.. She means the world to me." His voice seemed shakey as he spoke, those gentle features raising a moment as he looked up at Malik. "If I can ever do anything to pay you back. Please.. Just let me know."
Malik flushed slightly for Yugi's benefit as he shook his head. "Any good person would have done the same. I am just glad I made it in time." He took a vacant seat across from Yugi , Tea's bed seperating them before he fell silent, as if in deep thought. "You know. I hear they have spring break around here? Maybe it would be a good idea to get her away from Domino for a while. A vacation might take a bit of the stress away from her. There are many places in Egypt that you could take her too. My family owns a small house in an oasis. It is a bit further from civilization, but maybe that is what is needed for her to rehabilitate." He seemed embarrassed then. "Oh gee.. I am sorry. You don't even know me. I did not mean to just blurt that out."
Yet he got Yugi to thinking. Egypt! He had always been facsinated with that place. Tea would like it there! Possible Joey and Tristan as well. He smiled a bit before nodding. "I'll talk it over with Tea and see if she is interested! Thank you for the offer Malik. Please, consider yourself my friend. You brought Tea home to me!"
As if hearing her name, the girl sighed a bit, a small smile flickering upon her features as she slept. Things had been going fairly well. Yugi hadn't left her side, they had gotten closer. She had even found out that they were in a relationship. He only made his words more concrete by his actions. He had never left her side. Finally eyes opened and she yawned a little, that vision.. a dazzling sapphire falling upon Yugi. Fingers squeezed his hand gently. "I'd like to see Egypt. Mother and father said they will be going to America in a few weeks. So I am sure they will not mind if I go with you." Vision waivered over to Malik then, and a charming smile pressed upon her lips. "Malik. I never got the chance to thank you for finding me. I was so afraid." She had been afraid. Though most of her memories evaded her.
Malik grinned cheerfully as Tea spoke of wanting to see Egypt. She'd be in for more then she bargained for, as would the rest of the gang! Yet what could they do? He simply nodded his head gently. "I'll make the arrangements then. I am sure you all will love it!" Yet with in.. he could hear that maniacal laughter ringing in his ears. They were taking it. They were trusting him, Like sheep to the slaughter.
Yami felt something.. Something terrible, he just could not put his finger upon it! What was it about the boy that disturbed him.. Egypt.. His home. His people. Yet for some reason the Pharoah could not get a feeling of joy, nor comfort within him.. Something was wrong. He would find out hwat it was eventually. When he did... He would crush whomever stood in his way...
AN: Well that is it. My last chapter for a whole month! Lots of suspense! My goodness all of them going to Egypt with Malik and Marik? What could ever happen? I hope you enjoyed this See you in August!
