Well, surprisingly enough, I did get this chapter in faster than usual, I thought the other one was short enough, you deserve a longer one in a shorter time, ne?

So anyway, enjoy this chapter it is longer, and it does have a lot of the plotline in it.

Thanks for reviewing!

Millennium Hearts

~* Part 6; Green and Orange lights*~

   "You DO know where they live, right?"

  Yugi gave an encouraging smile to the blond beside him. "Of course Joey, I've been to his house many times before."

  "You sure, because I'm sure I've seen dis house before…"

  "Joey," Joey looked down at Yugi, "All the houses in the city look the same."

  Joey scrunched up his face and stuck a tongue out at Yugi. "I know that! I live in da city! I mean, it's just creepy! Just makin' sure you know where ya going."

  Yugi smiled and shook his head. "Don't worry." His gaze fell on Yami. "You've been silent."

  Yami's intense gaze never left the horizon. "I sense something coming, but I cannot tell what it is."

  Yugi stopped to look at Yami. "Do you think…"

  "I do not think it is magic, it feels for like a foreboding…" His gaze never wavered as his face contorted into confusion. "Something telling me not to go, but yet, to continue on…"

  "Woa, Yami, your started to creep me out, what'ya talkin' about?"

  Yami blinked the abruptly turned his head, his gaze hard and cold. "There"

  Yugi and Joey both turned their heads expecting to see some sort of monster, but instead, they saw a street, the same busy street, cars whizzing by. Straight ahead, past all the whizzing cars, past the busy walkers, past the blind man leaning against a trashcan holding out a can was a small alleyway, nothing special, just something big enough for people to go in a line.

  Yugi watched as Yami carefully looked both ways before started over the car-congested road. It took Yugi a moment, but he quickly followed his Yami's footsteps, Joey soon following. "Yugi," Yami said, still walking through the cars that had no stopped for the red light. "You need to stay here."

  Yugi firmly shook his head. "I want to come with you."

  "No, Yugi. I feel something dangerous coming." They finally reached the beginning of the alleyway. Yugi continued walking inside. He stopped for a minute to turn towards the frowning Yami.  "I'm coming whether you like I or not. I'm still a part of you, even if not physical. Wherever you go, I go."

   Yami's face did not soften, but something inside him broke and he gave a small whisper. "Be careful."

  Yugi nodded and would've hugged his best friend were it not for the skinny way.

  "Joey," Yami turned to face the confused blonde behind him. "I need you to get ready to call for help, understand? No, wait, even better. Go to the tomb robber. I don't know what I feel, but it is something evil, perhaps associated with magic. He may not come willingly, but I am sure his light will, tell him that I am separated from my aibou, that will surely get him to come."

   "I don't know where he lives…"  

  Yugi chose this time to stick his head around Yami's body. "Keep going down the way we were going until you hit 9th St. (Very creative, no?) Then look for house 793 in apartment 7a, got it?"

  Joey nodded numbly. Yami lightly pushed Joey to get him started. "Go, now! The feeling is getting stronger."

   Joey nodded numbly and continued on, only looking back once before the walk turned into a run.

  It was dark. Yugi had to put his hands on the wall to show him where he was going, and was it just him, or did all this seem to be going down hill? //I wish you had let me go first, Yugi//

  /I wish I did to, but you didn't give me much choice, now did you?/

  Yami was silent. //I do not wish for you to get hurt//

  Yugi gave a reassuring smile through the link. /Don't worry! I'll be careful as long as you are/

  He felt Yami chuckle. //That's reassuring.// There was a frown. //We're almost there. Be silent and quick//

   Yugi saw a light ahead. It was a dull orange light, lit by torches. He was right; it did go down hill, so much so that they were under ground. Where to hide then? He took a deep breath before entering the lighted area, and made a dash for a nearby dark area. Yami followed swiftly behind him. /No one's here! / Yugi sighed with relief, but Yami's frown and uneasiness remained.

  //They are here, aibou. Be extra careful. Hush, I hear something//

   Yami stepped in front of Yugi and led him to a large wooden door. He pressed an ear to the door in hopes of hearing what was on the other side.

  "LET ME GO YOU JERKS!"

  "I don know, Jeronome," A slight broken British accent sounded loudly through the door. "Should we?"

  They heard a smack before, "Of course not you, idiot! This kid is our ticket to freedom!"

  "But, he's just a lad!"

  "So? The boss told us to get him, so we did! I just didn't know it would be so easy…"

  "JUST WAIT TILL MY BROTHER GETS HERE!"

  Yami glanced over at Yugi. His eyes were sad, and angry. He didn't have to tell him who the boy was; he was worried about what Yugi would do to save his friends. But, where was his brother? Was this the bad feeling he had felt?

  He heard a slap then a snicker. "Your brother doesn't even know your out, now does he? He's not even the one we want! Ha!"

  "Oi, Jeromone, if he ain't the one we wan, why do we got him?"

  There was silence. Then – SMACK! "You are SUCH a moron! How did I get stuck with you?!"

  Yami stood up. He'd heard enough. He motioned for Yugi to move off to the side. Yami skillfully lifted up a foot, pulled it back, and slammed it forward right above the handle. The door way came crashing down. Before the men could react, Yami was upon them, punching them and kicking them. Yugi crept through the door unnoticed and moved behind Mokuba who was tied to a chair. He expertly untied the knot that was binding Mokuba to the chair. He felt Mokuba jump and start to yell but Yugi quickly hushed him. "Hush! It's me, Yugi, don't worry, me and Yami are gonna get you outa here!"

   A thousand questions ran through the small boy's head. Yami? Why were these guys after him anyway? And most of all – where was his brother?"

~*~*~*~

Seto Kaiba looked at his watch rather impatiently. Where was his brother? He had called in his room, he was there, he checked the game room, he checked the living room, he even checked the basement. No little brother. "HOLBY! HOLBY!"

  A young lady hustled to move to Kaiba, a dusting rag still in her hand. "Yes, sir?"

  "Have you seen my brother?"

  "I saw him two hours ago, sir, he was walking out the door."

  Seto frowned and narrowed his eyes. He marched down the long hallway and threw open the doors to outside. "MOKUBA?" He called. "MOKUBA! IT'S DINNER!" Seto mad ea noise in the back of his throat. If he was making him come find him and how much work he had to do…

  "Mr. Kaiba, sir?"

  Kaiba turned to see his old Gate Keeper standing in front of him, his old head bowed, his knees shaking. "What is it?"

  "I-It's Mokuba, sir."

  Seto's eyes narrowed. "What about him?"

  "He – He left, sir."

  "Left?"

  "Yes, Sir, he said he was going for a walk."

  Fear gripped Seto's heart. "Did someone go with him?"

  "N-no…sir…" He was shaking more now.

  "What?!" Seto took at deep breath and put a hand on his forehead. "When did he leave.."

  "That's the thing sir, he left and four-thirty and said he'd be back at five…"

  Seto felt the fear grip tighter. He only needed to glance at his watch to know it was way past five. It was in fact, six thirty.

  Seto cursed under his breath and ran out past the gate. "Sir?" He heard the old man call. "Should I get someone?"

  "Send Trowa, Gorophan, Grissly and Hydil out to find him!" Seto called over his shoulder before disappearing around the corner, desperately hoping to see his brother safe and fine on his way home.

~*~*~*~*~

  Mokuba looked around the room quickly once he was freed he turned to Yugi, fright glistened in his pale violet eyes. "Yugi, there should be one more!"

   Yugi's eyes widened with fear, not for him, but for Yami who was barely holding off two, could he handle one more? "Where Mokuba?" He whispered.

   Mokuba looked around. "I don't see him."

  "Why, were you looking for me? I should feel special, but I don't."

  Both Yugi and Mokuba whirled around to see a well built, brawny man, tattoos covering him from head to toe. Yugi gulped to hold back a scream, Mokuba was too frightened to scream, only let out a little squeak, but that little squeak was enough to alert Yami.

  Yami looked up briefly from his fight and saw the situation. He had to get these guys down, NOW! He punched the slower, but stronger one with a renewed force, fighting to get his way closer and closer to his Aibou and his friend.

   The man looked from Mokuba to Yugi, to Mokuba again. Suddenly, too strong hands reached up and grabbed their neck, one in each hand. He gave a small squeeze. "Now, who should I kill first?"

   He grinned maliciously at Yugi, showing his two black teeth, then over to Mokuba, completely at a loss as to who to kill first.

   Yami finally managed to knock the slower own senseless and break free of the other one. He raced franticly to Yugi and Mokuba at the other side of the room, just as the man had decided to kill them both at the same time, slowly squeezing the life out of them.

   Almost there! No! Yami cringed and fell face first to the ground. Quickly he pulled himself up and turned around, still on his back. Jeromone had a firm grip on his foot. Yami looked at Yugi and Mokuba, his eyes full of despair. The air was almost gone, and he could not reach them in time.

~
 Seto raced through the streets on Domino. If it were any other boy, Seto wouldn't have been worried. They were late that's all, very late, but they would come back. But he knew his brother. His brother would NEVER be even ten minutes, late if he could help it, let alone two hours. Seto gritted his teeth and ran faster. If anything where to happen to his brother, so help him, he would kill them. He'd kill them without a second thought.

   He eyes saddened briefly. Although, if he thought about it, it was his fault his brother had walked out. He was the one who had ignored his brother for so long. His company had been urging him to do more stuff, putting more pressure on him causing him to work harder and ignore his duties as an older brother. He recalled his brother wanted to show him something, he remembered the sad face of his little brother when he had told him for the third time that hew as busy.

  No more, he would never be too busy for his brother.

  Seto pushed harder, something told him to go right, then left, then another right. Seto Kaiba suddenly stopped dead in his tracks, along with the other twenty or so people on the street.

~
 Yugi and Mokuba both strained to look at each other. So this was it? Thoughts of loved ones, memories, and times forgotten passed through their minds. Yugi could feel all conscious thought fading and blackness blurring his vision. Mokuba had long stopped struggling. He finally closed his eyes and muttered out a soft, "No…"

   All went… green…

Most action packed chapter yet! Hurrah for me! Ehm... yea... hope you all are liking it so far more to come!
