Deadly Wish

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh still. Man, wouldn't cha think I'd have obtained true glory in fanfiction and could OWN one little anime show?

Talan: Are you kidding..? True glory? Aha.

Yu-Gi-Oh isn't that "little" anymore, anyways.

Talan:…Why do I even help you anymore? .

I could get Kitsune-san to do it…

Thank you to Livi, Haru-Chan, and yugicutie for the reviews!

'…' Are Yuugi's thoughts.

/…/ Are Malik's thoughts.

Summary of story: Yuugi wishes to be popular. What will happen when his wish comes true?

Summary of chapter: Chapt. 19 summary – Yuugi's on some weird Island with Akui, but where's Malik? He's in the same hospital that Amane died in a few days before. Will Malik find the answers? And will Yuugi be able to find Akui (Mr. Vamp), before he'll strike his next victims?

(Akui – Malice in Japanese.)

"Anzu, Im sorry that you died...I bet it was Akui who did it," Yuugi commented to what was left of Anzu. She was a scary site for anyone to look at, but Yuugi wasn't scared to look at her. He came all this way to see her, and even if her horrible looking body was dead on the outside and her heart and brain had stopped entirely, Yuugi believed that Anzu's dreams and soul was trapped inside of her.

"I came all of this way for you, to see you...did you know that?" Yuugi just kept telling Anzu about everything that had been going on in Domino since she was kidnapped. Yuugi didn't even know that he was the one who kidnapped her and gave her to Akui in the cave.

"Everyone misses you. Honda, Jou, Ryou, and even Yami..." Yuugi stopped at Yami's name for a minute, then continued. "Your family...the teachers...and I missed you Anzu. I missed you the most. I just wish I could have stopped Akui from killing you. Then maybe my wish would have never come true," Yuugi just kept talking in circles about wishing she hadn't died, and who missed her.

"Did I tell you, Anzu? About the wish I made to Akui?" Yuugi didn't wait for a response. Anzu had to know why Akui went after her and killed her.

"I wished for popularity, Anzu. I wished that you guys would hang out with me, just like before. You just went straight to Yami for everything, when I was left alone. I would curse at you until school ended and I'd walk behind you after school and I heard you laughing. I was weakened without friends or without Yami. Without friends or laughing together. And then I wished for it all. To see how it was like. I didn't know that..." Yuugi stopped yet again.

"I didn't know that he would try to kill everyone I care about."

/What in Ra...happened?/

An ambulance siren rang past as Malik slowly grew his senses. His mind was fuzzy and slow but soon his eyes cooperated.

Malik opened his eyes to see that he was near a building with hot, bright lights shining in every possible angle on the sidewalks and a bright sign in front with huge red letters.

American General Hospital in New York.

"I was sent to a hospital? Oh joy, what fun I will have at an American hospital!" Malik shouted up to the clouds, his patience fading and his anger building. Then it hit him. Hard.

/The hospital Amane was sent to?/

"Hm. Maybe I will have fun at a hospital," Malik grinned and ran towards the opening doors.

---

Yuugi didn't realize until LATER...

That he was stuck on an island.

---

Doctor Williams to ICU, Doctor Williams to ICU.

Malik turned his head slightly to look at the boxes that were making the PA announcement to go through.

/It sounds like the damn co-pilot again. Does she stalk me everywhere she goes now?!/

"Alright now. If I was Ryou's sister and I didn't want to be here...Where would I be?" Malik asked himself.

A sudden yelp made Malik turn in his tracks towards a brown hospital door a few yards away.

"Where's my big brother! Where's Ryou!" A little girl's voice screamed into the hallway.

"AMANE," Malik almost yelled as he entered the room, the little girl's eyes staring straight at Malik.

"Who are you?" She asked.

"Im your big brother's...best friend," Malik answered, a blush also appearing on his cheeks.

Amane smiled but suddenly she coughed horribly, making Malik's eyes widen. "Y-you know Ryou?"

Malik nodded. "So Amane, what's wrong?"

Amane closed her eyes weakly. "The doctors don't want to say it but...I'm dying!..." Amane started to cry weakly but somehow continued to talk. "My father was always away, and my mother misses my brother so much. I miss him too, and I want to see him," Amane sobbed out.

Malik froze, the tears of his lover's little sister getting to him. "Its okay, Amane. I'm sure Ryou would come to see you..."

Amane looked up, her eyes shining with happiness. "Really? My big brother will come and see me?"

Malik didn't want to tell her the truth. Ryou wasn't coming. His phone didn't work, for crying out loud. Something weird was going on back in Domino, and Malik didn't know what the hell it was. "Yeah, he'll come to see you," Malik stated, his eyes filling up with some guilt.

/Damnit, Ryou. It would take a miracle for you to hear this but...you have to see Amane. I promised her that you would get to see her before she died. Please...Ryou. Come to see her. To see Amane./

Back In Domino -

Yami sighed as the stars above his head flickered in a mess all over the sky and around the moon. He hoped to Ra that Yuugi would be looking at the same stars soon in America. He missed his little hikari. No. His little koibito. That was more like it. Yami loved Yuugi so much. Yami would protect him from anyone or anything.

Then why didn't he tell Yuugi not to go to America!

Yami groaned and put his hands over his eyes, trying to tell himself to just shut up. Thoughts raced through the Pharaoh's mind and soon he just got off the couch, grabbed his jacket, and left the Game Shop. He could still hear the television running inside, but that was fine. He would come back in a little while, anyways. All that he needed was some fresh air and to clear his head of everything. Get on a different topic. It couldn't be anything about Duel Monsters, or about the Millennium Puzzle. Bluntly, he couldn't clear his head of Yuugi. Everything reminded him of Yuugi. The ducks in the park, the Puzzle, his dueling deck...everything.

"Damnit, Yuugi," Yami said, still walking down the street. He sensed something...weird. A dark presence near Ryou's house. Maybe it was just Bakura and Marik, but something told Yami that it wasn't. As he walked closer to the boy's house, Yami realized something. Whatever the dark power was, he'd sensed it before. It was weak before...just barely there, but now, it was strong. He didn't like it, either.

Suddenly the front door slammed open and Yami was surprised to see Jou come out of the house. Something was wrong...

Jou never had a look of pure hate on his face before, even when Malik controlled him with the Millennium Rod. Yami just stood on the sidewalk, his eyes continually narrowing at the boy. When Jou reached him, Yami stepped back suddenly.

"What is the matter, Pharaoh?" Jou's voice whispered coldly. Differently. Yami's shoes clinked sharply on the sidewalk as Jou started for him again.

"Jou, what is going on!" Yami said, his eyes filled with concern. "Is someone controlling you?"

Katsuya just smirked and shook his blonde-haired head, his brown eyes closing in the process. He just stood by the sidewalk a few feet from Yami and sharply opened his eyes again, his eyes now adjusting to see Yami clearly. He looked like the Jou everyone knew...

But inside, something was wrong. Something faced to tear the Pharaoh apart.

Akui.

Yuugi just crossed his arms, begging for body warmth to come and heat him up. He had walked around in circles to find a way off the island, but no luck. He was stuck here with the ocean lapping at the blackened shore, the caves, and Anzu. Yuugi hated it.

'Why is she gone?' He asked himself. He rolled his eyes suddenly, as if he had just made an ass out of himself.

'How could I forget...it was Akui.'

With everything it was him. The bane of his hellish wish was because of him. It was just popularity, but Yuugi forgot something his grandfather had told him before he had died.

Flashback :

"Y-Yuugi, before I go...don't feel sad about anything..." Sugoroku said, pausing to cough into his pale hand. Yuugi was caught off guard and whimpered as the sound ran through him, terrifying him.

"Bu-but Grandpa, you're..." Yuugi started to say but was once again caught off guard again by his Grandfather's words.

"I know, Yuugi. I know. If...you're lost with no one, Yuugi...don't try and get your friends back with spirits you can't control...it...will...just...take---time..." Sugoroku breathed and slowly closed his eyes, too tired and weak to go on.

End Flashback.

"I—I should have listened!" Yuugi yelled, digging his fingernails into his palms in anger.

'But you didn't.'

"I know..." He said to himself again. "And I'm sorry to everyone..."

Yuugi just sighed and felt himself break down, felt the tears pour down his face...

But he gave no heed to stop them. He would just give up right here and now. Then he remembered his promise to Yami. He had promised him that he would stay safe and have faith. For Yami...

He would.

Malik sighed, pulling his brown jacket over his black shirt. Visiting times were over for Amane, so he just decided to leave. He hated the aura around hospitals. (A.N:...Hospitals have an aura...right?! o.o;;) He hated the smell and the look too, so much disease, so much death.

Amane looked worried as he left, worried that Malik wouldn't keep his promise about her older brother coming. Malik just shut his eyes and kept his eyes closed as he walked, not wanting to know or care for any more tonight.

Alright, my reason for taking forever to update...?

School.

Playing Harvest Moon.

Yahoo chat rooms.

Yes, so you can slap me now. –Gets slapped- OW. X-o.

Flame if you want. But I won't care.
