Deadly Wish
Disclaimer: I. Don't. Own. Yu-Gi-Oh. You. Should. Know. That.
A/N: It's been awhile. Heh. O.o;
Amane is Ryou's sister. Ya'll know that, right? O.o; I hope that's how you spell it at least. o.o;; -Looks in Shonen Jump again-
Erm. I am stuck with Micro. Word.
Great. It works fine though.
'...' Are Yuugi's thoughts.
/.../ Are Malik's thoughts!
Summary: Well. Yuugi wishes to be popular. What will happen if his wish becomes true?
--- Reminder from last chapter: Yuugi just stared at the lavender eyes. 'It's Malik. Here?'
"Yuugi! What are you doing here?" Ryou's voice had a stroke of nervousness in it.
"I-I just came by to see you," Yuugi softly muttered.
Malik growled and almost ripped the door off the hinge. "Come in then. I guess . . ."
---
Yuugi slowly stepped into Ryou's house. He let out a mental sigh of relief. It was all clear. Nothing was on fire. Nothing was flying across the room at 95 mph. But what were those shouts?
"Ryou is everything oka—?" Yuugi was cut off by an unusually low sob from Ryou. "Ryou, what's wrong?"
"Don't pry into his business, Yuugi," Malik snapped angrily, but Ryou, who shook his hand at Malik asking him to stop yelling, soon shushed him.
Malik sighed and slumped on the couch, sadness and anger overtaking him. The sandy-haired Egyptian rubbed one eye tiredly with a hand, while he gripped his pant's leg with the other hand.
/Yuugi. Ryou's been through hell.../
Yuugi just stood in the living room looking at nothing. The only thing he could think of was why Ryou and Malik would be upset. Most of all, Ryou. His mind started to churn with some simple answers, most about Bakura, just some sort of depression that Yuugi never knew about, or maybe Ryou missed his father.
"Yu...Yuugi...it...it's Amane," Ryou finally said, his eyes almost glued to the carpet. He didn't take his eyes off of the carpet, but Ryou never stopped talking either. "They called here...just thirty minutes before you...came...the...doctors..."
Yuugi watched Ryou's knees shake with nervousness and a genuine sadness. He knew what it was like for someone you loved to die.
'Grandpa...Anzu...'
"Jesus, Yuugi! Amane is dead. Can you just leave Ryou alone for now!" Malik pleaded, his lavender eyes shining with burning protective anger. He then shut his mouth and looked towards Ryou his face turning sad and guilt-written. "I need to breath," Malik said to no one as he left the room.
"Ryou...Im sorry about your sister," Yuugi replied. Ryou looked towards Yuugi, his eyes red and puffy from crying so hard. Slowly he calmed himself down enough to say something.
"So am I, Yuugi," Ryou sadly stated.
--- After what seemed the longest time, Yuugi left Ryou's home. He just couldn't believe it. Anzu, Grandpa, and one of his best friend's sister...all dead. Death was not a good thing. It stole the people that you love from right under you. First...Grandpa.
-Flashback-
"I'm home, Grandpa!" Yuugi laughed as he entered the Game Shop. School was out for Christmas. For some strange reason no one answered him, though.
'It's December! He wouldn't have gone outside with leaving a note! Hmm.'
Yuugi shook the thought off and leapt upstairs, making the floorboards squeak in response. As Yuugi was reaching his room, he kicked off his boots and hung up his winter coat. The cold north wind was blowing in snow every minute. A sudden, sharp prick in Yuugi's back made him stop and turn towards the way he'd come. His Grandfather's door was partly open.
"Grandpa, you in here?" Yuugi's voice rang through the room. Yuugi growled and started to turn back when his eyes spotted something.
There was someone on the bed. Whatever it was, it was laying on it's back, and it's eyes were closed. Yuugi stepped in, curiosity burning into his head, but suddenly Yuugi cried out.
"GRANDPA?!" Yuugi cried out in pain. Yuugi ran in the room and wanted to tell his brain that the person had to be un-real. But it was real. Everything that was happening was real. The clock in the room was ticking. Yuugi's breathing was unbalanced. And Grandpa...he wasn't breathing.
-End Flashback-
Yuugi found himself wandering aimlessly around Domino Square Park. His eyes were glazed with thick crystal tears.
"Ah, Yug', there ya are!" Yuugi looked up, his thoughts coming back to him. It took a minute to register the voice he had heard calling his name.
'Who is that I hear calling out to me?'
"Yug', you ok?" Jou walked over towards Yuugi, his mouth occupied with a newly bought ice cream cone.
"Unh? Oh, Jou! Im fine!" Yuugi laughed softly. "I was just thinking about...something that happened today."
"What happened Yuugi? Did someone hurt you? Because I'll kick their ass..." Jou's voice rambled on about friendship and kicking the "bully's" ass.
"No, no. No one hurt me, Jou. It's just Ryou's sister is...in the hospital," Yuugi quickly added. He was surprised with himself. He lied to his best friend about the worst thing that had happened lately.
"Oh! Well, tell 'em that I give her my Get Well Soon!" Jou smiled at Yuugi, who just had to smile at that remark.
'Oh Jou...I wish that I could tell Ryou that. It would break my heart to see him again, though. And it would probably break his heart too.'
Yuugi stretched and slowly got up from the bench, his legs almost numb from sitting. "Well Jou. I have to go home and make dinner. See you later!" Yuugi tried to smile and ran off, his hand waving back at Jou.
"See ya, Yug'!"
---Man. That was...depressing to write. I don't WANT to write about death. But...it happens. So yeah.
RYOU FANS. Im so sorry for making the bishi cry. He's one of my favorite characters in the whole show. But, I also think that he would be devastated if his baby sister died. So I put that in.
Flame if you so wish. I'll keep writing, though. So it wouldn't help any.
Chapt. 16 Summary – Yuugi decides to try and find Mr. Vamp. As the search continued for him, Malik tells Yuugi that Ryou tried to kill himself in depression over Amane. Yuugi can't stand it anymore and relies on Malik's help and Yami's love to push him on to find the mysterious "creator" of Yuugi's popularity.
