A Broken Promise

By: NightoftheShadows

NS: SORRY FOR THE LATE UPDATE! It's about time I update this thing. This story is just going nowhere and I have no idea about what is going on...But no, I'll still work on it and stuff. Just wondering though, if any of you guys have ANY ideas about where you want this story to go, then e-mail me or put it in your review. I'll give you credit and stuff.

Wow, you guys sure took Yami/Yugi together pretty well...because it was either him, Joey or Bakura. So I said to my Mom 'Which letter? Y, J, or B?' and she chose Y so Yugi it was.

Dragon n Desidera: I hate it when Tea's with Yami, just so weird. Poor Seth indeed. And sorry for the late update.

Psyche: Too bad you aren't. That would be so awesome. Like I said, I didn't know who to put him with so it was random. And Yami will go with one of them in the end, just don't know which one. And I'll think about the body part.

Hakudoshi-chan: You're lost? How? Glad you think it's awesome though.

Allison Lightning:Glad you thought it was interesting and that you like Seto with the mill. rod. Seemed like a good idea.

Angelic Transmition:They aren't my favourite thing in the world the yami/hikari pairings but this one I can stand.

SetoxJou Sucks: Cute poem.

Silver-dagger-113: Yeah, poor Seth, he'll cheer up though.

Tsukikage: Yeah, I thought that this look familiar and don't worry, he'll be with one of them. Trust me

Disclaimer: No no and no.

Chapter 2: Talks With Your Others

Scrolls and parchments flew through the air as two people collided in the halls. One, the smaller of the two, fell to the ground on his back while the slightly taller one stumbled until he balanced himself on the wall.

"Hey, watch where you are going!" The tall one exclaimed angrily staring at the child.

"Sorry, I just didn't see you coming."

The taller one looked to find the child had spiked hair with red, black and gold and wore some fancy jewellery. The small one looked up and the other noticed crimson eyes staring at him with an air of confidence surrounding him. He blushed in embarrassment as he realized who he had just ran into.

"Oh no, I am sorry. I did not mean to..." He began but was caught off when the smaller of the two raised his hand to silence him.

"Like I said before, it's okay. I should have watched where I was going." He replied, before studying the other. "Oh, you must be the new High Priests apprentice. You arrived two weeks ago right?"

"Yes, I did prince." He stated simply, turning away his gaze.

"Huh? Oh, you don't need to call me that." The prince said, smiling at the apprentice. "What's your name?"

"Uh, it's Seth." Seth responded, still not looking at the prince. He may have arrived at the palace two weeks ago, he still never had seen the prince before, nor had he seen many of the priests and barely the pharaoh himself. This place was so big and he had been in training that he hardly saw anyone besides his tutor.

"Well Seth, my name's Atem. Do you want any help with getting these papers in order?" Atem asked, kneeling down to pick up some of the things that scattered.

"No, I mean, I can handle it, so you don't..." Seth stuttered, trying to pick up more of the small pieces of paper.

"It's fine, really. I made the mess so I should...oh!" Atem said, picking up one of the small pieces of paper. "A Duel Monster. You play?"

"No, I mean, they're my masters, wait..."

"Too bad." He pouted. "I would like to have someone to play with without having to stake anything."

Seth froze as he saw the prince doing some sort of version of the puppy dog eyes. He smiled. "Fine, I do play a little. When I have some time off, but it has been hectic since I got here so I haven't actually had any time to play."

Atem stood and gave Seth the cards that he had picked up and some other papers. "Well then, would you like to have a game tonight in my room? Just for fun?" He asked, giving the taller boy a small smile.

"Uh, sure. I would love to!" Seth stated, returning the smile.

"Great! I can't wait!" The prince said happily, his smile growing. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go or else Mahaado will catch up with me and I have to do my lesson. Which I really don't want to. So, I'll see you later Seth." Atem waved as he sped off in another direction, leaving Seth alone. Until the holder of the ring came by running to see if he could catch the prince.

END OF DREAM SEQUENCE

Yami opened his eyes as he sat up in the double bed. He looked around before realizing where he was and layed back down until his head rested against a soft pillow.

"Something wrong Yami?" A small voice asked beside him. Yami turned to find Yugi staring at him. (NS: No, they did not do anything that night or any other night so don't think any dirty thoughts!)

"Nothing's wrong Yugi, just had a strange dream." The dark replied, closing his eyes.

"About what?"

He opened one of his eyes and looked at his love. "I'm not quite sure really." He said, closing his one eye. "I can't seem to remember it very well. It had something to do with Egypt, duel monsters and I think Kaiba."

Yugi frowned. He didn't like the fact that just this evening Kaiba was acting weird towards Yami and that he had had a dream about the CEO or a close version of him. "Well, it's good to see that your memories are returning, though they're fuzzy."

"If it was even a memory."The spirit stated. He would be glad that it was, but since they weren't of the greatest quality then that was teasing him to no end. He wanted to remember it.

'Which I sure hope it isn't' Yugi thought, before smiling. "Don't worry Yami, I'm sure if it was, then they'll get better and you'll remember them." Yugi encouraged, trying to cheer up his other.

Yami smiled and opened his eyes to look at him. "They better." He mumbled, beforewrapping his arms around the smaller teen and letting themselves both fall asleep.

CHANGE OF THING

Seth grumbled in his once again, soul room. He wasn't at all happy about his little talk with his past lover that night. And he especially didn't like it when he had to go back home and play 20 question with his other's brother before going into bed and letting his host fall asleep.

Speaking of which, he had to tell him to get those special nose things so he could stop snoring. He had other things to think of and didn't want that noise disturbing him.

"Maybe I should ask him what had gone wrong." Seth murmured to himself as he stood up from the pillows he had been sitting on and exited his soul room, before going out in his transparent form.

He opened his eyes to find himself sitting on the edge of the bed that his host was resting on. 'Silk sheets on a four poster bed, how classy.' he mused, standing up and walking to the front of the bed to wake his look a like. "Seto, wake up." he said, shaking his arm slightly. To no avail Seth tried a different tactic that seemed to work on him with Atem when he didn't want to be waken up. He moved his hand towards Seto's face and plugged his nose. At least he was able to touch his host.

Seto snorted and he flayed his arms before opening his eyes and mouth so he could wake up, and breath. Seth smiled. "Hello Seto." He greeted.

Kaiba looked up with tried eyes but as soon as he saw who was talking, he grabbed his pillow and put it over his head. "Not you again." He mumbled. "Can't you just leave me alone?"

Seth shrugged. "It's your fault that you don't like me. I just want to ask you a few questions. Or else you'll be getting a huge migraine in the morning." The former priest explained, knowing how to get himself to fess up.

"Are you the one who gives me all these headaches?"

"Usually, or you have been working too hard. Now, will you answer my questions?"

Kaiba's head came out of the pillow and he glared at the spirit before sighing and sitting up. This 'spirit' was too much of a handful at times. He would love to think of these 'meetings' as a weird hallucination or dreams. But, sadly, they've been getting to frequent. "What do you want to know?" He asked his former life. If he answered these questions then he can get back to sleep.

"I was just wondering why At...er, Yami, doesn't know about me." Seth said.

"Why? Is he suppose to?" Kaiba inquired, rasing an eyebrow.

"Yes we were...very close friends." Seth stumbled, he didn't want Seto knowing that him and Atem were lovers. That might come to the conclusion of the millennium rod being thrown out. "And since I have my memories, why wouldn't Yami?"

Kaiba shrugged. "I am not the one to be asked those questions. I don't care for all of that stuff. Even if it has to do with Yami." He stated truthfully before he added. "Maybe it had to do with the fact that the puzzle had been broken so his mind was also and that made him forget about his past life."

Seth nodded thoughtfully. "That would be a good theory. But, who would be good to ask about it?" He asked, looking at Kaiba, hopefully for some answers.

"How the hell am I suppose to know? Why don't you ask Yami himself? Or Yugi? Just let me get back to sleep." Kaiba said, resting his head back on the pillow. Snoring soon followed.

Seth glared at him but sighed. He got the information that he had wanted and now he can think of a plan that will get Yami back with him. He sneered before he went back into the rod.

ME TALKING

So...this sucks. Seriously sorry again for not updating. This is going nowhere as I said before, but if you have any ideas I'd be happy to hear them. I'm stuck and I don't want to stop the story. It'll flow better sooner or later I guess. If not, it was a good try. So, review if you like and flames are always welcome as long as they're good ones.
