YM: Hi!! I'm back!!!
EC: -_-'
IK: I'm here too. Not too sure how Supernatural's gonna fit into this one yet, but I'm working on it……^_^
EC: Yeah, well, I'm not giving too much ground up on this one. I've already come up with a decent plot……
IK: No problem. Tell me about it, and I won't change anything that's "set in stone". I'll just make it……better.
YM: O_O!! There's 2 muses working on this story……I'm doomed……
Yami: -_-' YM doesn't own Yu-gi-oh, and she probably never will, and if you sue her, like I said, all you'll get is her wicked witch step-mom bitch.
YM: You really really really really really don't want her……-_-'
EC: Anyways, back to the story, if you don't mind…-_-'
YM: Saa, but first, I have to thank Sailor Yugioh Serenity, Burning-Yami-Rain, ShadowKat, and SailorChibi for reviewing!! You're the only ones that did!! You guys rule!!!
IK: Can we start the story now?
YM: Yep!! I'm done!! Oh, wait, no I'm not…-_-'
EC: -_-' What now??
YM: Well, I've been referring to Tea as Anzu and Tea, so, I just thought that it would be confusing, so ignore it in the last chapter, I don't know what I was thinking. I'm going to refer to her as Anzu, k?

Chapter 4
//
Yami laid down next to his light and kissed his forehead, basking contently in the warm afterglow of his orgasm. Yuugi snuggled closer to his darkness and sighed contentedly; he forgot completely about what had happened that day and about the recurring dreams. That is, until he fell asleep……………
//
Drifting into his unconscious world, Yuugi was slapped into reality as a sound echoed throughout the abyss. Sitting up, he heard the sound again and scowled; this look didn't seem in place on his angelic little features. It was a laugh. Her laugh. That laugh that had woven in and out of his thoughts in even the waking hours that made his skin crawl, despite it's rich, possibly soothing sound. That's because he despised the person that was making the sound. He stood immediately, and yelled into the darkness,
"Where are you??" He turned quickly as the laugh sounded behind him, and looked for who he knew was there. It was that girl, possibly Rofaic, who had been haunting him non-stop for 10 days. This time though, his Yami was with her. Standing behind the girl, who was still shrouded in shadows, he had arms wrapped around her in the same way he held Yuugi, possessively, as she leaned on his chest.
"Give it up Yuugi. When I meet her, I'll go with her, and I won't have to deal with your pathetic weakness any longer." said his Yami, sneering coldly at him. Yuugi knew it wasn't his yami really, but somehow, he couldn't convince his heart of that……
"No, th-that's not true." Yuugi protested weakly, his voice sounding like a whimper more than anything else. Tears splashed down his cheeks as she said callously,
"Oh, but you know it is Yuugi. You know we speak the truth." It was strange; her voice was more, alto, than Rofaic's, and yet, she lookde similar by shape. He still couldn't see any features though.
"Face it Yuugi. Sooner or later, I'm going to leave you. Why don't you make it easier on yourself and make it sooner?" said his "yami".
"N-no Yami. It…it's not-" Yuugi started to protest, but his "yami" cut him off with,
"I know, I know; it's not true. Face the facts Yuugi; you're not good enough for me. Give it up. You wanna know a secret? I don't really love you. I only tell you that to make you think I love you. Really all you are is just convenient for sex." This hit Yuugi; hard.
"N…nooooooooooooo!!!" he screamed as he was catapulted out of his dream……………
"N…nooooooo!" Yuugi moaned as he sat up. He hugged his knees and cried brokenly into them; the dreams became more and more realistic as they came, and that one could have passed for reality.
He then became aware of his Yami hugging him around the waist. He turned himself and buried his face in the warm chest he was facing; his real Yami's chest, crying so hard he shook.
Yami held his aibou, completely clueless as to what had happened. Through their link came a weak plea:
/Yami? T-tell me it, it isn't true. Please Yami./
//What's not true aibou?//
/You love me, right? I mean, I'm not just…just…g-good for…s-sex, r-right?/
//Yuugi! Where would you have ever gotten the very thought of that nature from?//
/J-just please, please, answer my question Yami./
Yami tilted his aibou's head up and looked straight into his aibou's watery violet orbs. He then said in a gentle, but firm tone,
"Aibou, listen to me. I love you. More than life itself." After he said this, he caught a crystalline tear on his finger and held it to sparkle in the moonlight and continued softly, "I once dropped a tear into the ocean. The day I find it is the day that I stop loving you." Then, he leaned down and kissed his aibou softly, as if to solidify his proclamation.
When they broke, Yuugi hugged his Yami gently and cried softly. Just as Yami was about to ask why he was crying, through the link came,
/Thank you. Thank you so much for loving me as I love you./
//Aibou, I could never stop loving you.//…………
A short while later, Yuugi cried himself to sleep. Yami kissed him on the head and gently laid them both down, drawing up the deep green comforter with them.
~What could he have dreamt to make him ask such a question?~
Yami wondered as he gently stroked his aibou's back. He desperately wanted to look into his aibou's dreams, to put together some explanation to these nightmares, but Yuugi asked him not to, and he would respect his aibou's wishes. Kissing his aibou again on the head, he drifted off to his normal, dreamless sleep…………
Yuugi woke again, but not so violently, from a less than pleasurable dream. Trembling, silent tears coursed down his delicate cheeks as Yami held him, being woken by Yuugi's shaking body. Asking him if he was sure he didn't want to talk about it.
Yuugi said yes, and caught sight of his alarm clock. Since he would have had to get up in half an hour anyway, he dislodged himself from his Yami's strong arms as much as he didn't want to and went to take a shower.
Letting the warm water course over him, he tried to let it wash away his memories of the dreams. This made a new question arise; Who had saved him 2 days ago? It was now Wednesday; 2 days after Yuugi had almost been killed by Rofaic's motorcycle, and he had been saved by the mysterious winged girl. Who was that? he thought as he lathered his tri-colored hair up. His friends hadn't seen her. He remembered the conversation that had taken place when he had arrived at school the following morning…
~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~
"Yuugi!" Anzu had exclaimed as Yuugi walked up the steps. "Are you alright?" Then Jou started,
"Yeah man, dat was pretty creepy wit' da whole motacycle thing an' all. I had no idea you had such great reflexes Yug!" Yuugi looked at his best friend in confusion and said,
"Reflexes? What do you mean, reflexes?" Honda answered this one.
"We all saw you jump out of the way of the motorcycle. It took some pretty quick reflexes to dodge it; I mean, it was traveling a good 75 mph, and you managed to jump back to the curb unscratched." Yuugi looked at him in disbelief. They thought he had jumped? Out from in front of a speeding motorcycle? When it was only a few feet away? And landed on his feet? Yeah right.
"Didn't you guys see the girl?" he had asked, confused as all hell and showing it. Jou, Anzu, and Honda gave him mystified looks for a second before Anzu said, "Uh………What girl Yuugi?"
"The girl that pulled me out of the way and to the curb. You know, purple hair, really big white wings……" Yuugi let that sentence trail off as he realized that his friends had no idea what he was talking about, and how strange he must sound to them
"Yug…you didn't hit your head or anything did ya?" asked Jou asked after a second. Yuugi sweatdropped and said instead,
"Nevermind. Come on, or we'll be late for homeroom."
~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~^*^~
He couldn't understand why they hadn't seen her, but he hadn't pressed the subject for fear of sounding insane to his friends. Rinsing his hair, he conditioned it quickly, trying to figure out some logical way to explain why the girl had looked so similar to Rofaic. But she had looked so similar to the intimidating motorcyclist, and yet so extremely different that it gave Yuugi a headache trying to figure it out. As he stumbled out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist, he ran through any logical scenario that came to him, but none really worked. Pulling out his outfit, he dressed quickly, hissing at the cold air as it kissed his warm wet skin.
Dressing, he could afford to take his time because he was half an hour early. Walking down the stairs, being trailed by Yami, he sat down at the table for a second, not really knowing what to do with the extra time on his hands.
His oji-san almost dropped the orange juice container when he saw his grandson sitting at the kitchen table…EARLY!!! It was almost too much for his poor old heart to handle, but he re-cooped and said,
"Ohayo-gozaimasu Yuugi. You're up early today." Yuugi smiled and said,
"Yeah, I woke up a little early today, that's all." Sugoroku smiled and flipped on the TV as Yuugi put some toast in the toaster. Getting out the butter and strawberry jam, he almost dropped it as the reporter's voice boomed throughout the room, saying,
"But more on that later. In other news this morning, seventh and eighth victims have been found. Both brutally marred, one with burns and one from frostbite. Found in the same alley, police say that now they can link these murders to the same person or group of people. Here's Naoko Tenasashi on the scene with more information."
"Thanks Kayeshi. I was just told that in addition to the brutal treatments these victims suffered, they died of blood loss, as it has just been confirmed by doctors that indeed, these people were alive when burns and frostbite were inflicted on them. The same thing goes for the other 6 victims, and the attacks seem to be becoming more and more brutal as the killings progress. The first 2 sufferers that were found on Sunday morning at about 8:00 only had a few inflicted injuries; these 2 have almost no visible skin on the areas that were not clothed. The victims are always found in pairs, and only one has burns while the other only has frostbite; never mixing. Is this some conspiracy, or just some kind of sadistic killer? And what of the blood loss of each victim? Each body has less than a unit of blood left in them. Now, the question on everyone's mind is, what of the blood? Where could it possibly be? Is it a vampire of myth, or are they really just that; a myth. I don't know about you, but this reporter is starting to wonder. Now, here's Masao Tenkiyoho [1] with the weather."
Yuugi was staring at the television. Those poor people. How awful. But, what could possibly give someone frostbite here? Even an ice cube didn't do that…
"Yuugi, you're going to be late for School." Sugoroku gently reminded his grandson. Snapping out of his thoughts, he looked at the clock and saw he was 5 minutes late. Sighing, he grabbed his toast, which had just popped up, slapped some jam on it, and took off, toast hanging from his mouth as he pulled his book bag on. Yami shook his head and easily caught up with his aibou. Returning to the puzzle after getting to school, his thoughts turned to the killings he had listened to on the television. Those symbols on the victims…the burns on one, and the frostbite on the others…he remembered Yuugi told him that frostbite happened when part of you was freezing cold for a very long time. These victims…they sounded familiar for some reason…it was like the memory was there, hazy, and he could almost see it, but it was taunting him, not letting him really see it…Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, he decided to dwell on it later and focus on keeping an eye out for his aibou………
