Never Knew
Part III
Seto looked as the three beings before him. He was confused, which was an amazing feet seeing as he was always in control. He has to be; too many people had taken advantage of him, when he wasn't.
"You don't need to be like that here, Master, we won't let anyone hurt you," Kite stated.
"You can be yourself here," Kyra stated.
Seto just looked at them and narrowed his eyes. They were reading his mind, how was that possibly? This isn't real, it can't be real. If it was, then everything he every believed in would be a lie. Then that card he torn was real, he killed that Blue Eyes.
"No, master. That card wasn't meant to be. There are only three of us," Tao stated.
Seto looked at them.
"So I didn't kill it?" Seto asked.
"No," Kite smiled gently. He did not like seeing Setti like this. He had suffered enough, seeing here through the shadows, what dangers and pains awaited his master only angered him. But he was safe, at least for now.
"Come, my young master, you need your rest," Kite place his arm around Seto's shoulders and lead him away, followed by Kyra and Tao.
Tea, Tristan, Joey, Ryou and Mai, were all waiting at the platform. Mai was filing her nails, and rolled her eyes as she heard them talking about what was going to happen. From the moment she first meet them, she had labeled them.
Tea, the airhead cheerleader, but only as an act, deep inside all that annoying talk of friendship, was a snake. She was after something or someone.
Tristan, kind of clueless, and not so smart, but he was a good person. You could tell, by the way he came to help them, he could probably be on vacation or charming any girl he wanted, not here.
Joey that punk, not a bad duelist, cute, but not her type. And her type, someone who was into girls. He may not know it, but his not into girls. She could tell, especially when Tea bend over, he wasn't the least bit affected if anything, he looked bored. No, he was more like a kid brother.
Then, there was Ryou. That boy was too shy. He's sweet and cute, but she just wished he would just tell Yugi how he feels.
Speak of the devil, Mai turned to see them walking in. The one, who goes by Yami, was holding Kaiba, while Yugi and Kaiba's kid brother were on either side of him.
He walked with a superior air to him. Like he's used to having the world's problems on his shoulder. She smiled at how tightly he held Kaiba's body next to him, almost possessively. Figures all the good looking ones, are into boys. Oh well, what's a girl to do?
She turned when she heard, Pegasus clear his throat.
"The first round of the semifinals will being with a duel between Ms. Mai Valentine and Yugi Mutou," Pegasus said as he turned to smirk at Yami.
Yami ignore Pegasus grin and turned to Mokuba.
"Mokuba, we have to go now, where do you want me to place him?" Yami asked.
"Um… I,"
"Here," Ryou started.
"We can hold him, as we sit down," Ryou smiled as he looked at Mokuba.
Mokuba nodded and accepted Ryou's help to take care of Seto.
He placed Seto on their laps.
Yugi couldn't help but blush when Ryou smiled up at him. He quickly turned to Yami.
"You ready?" Yugi asked.
Yami nodded and closed his eyes. In a flash, the spirit took over Yugi's body.
Yami turned to Mai.
"Do you have a problem with this Mai?" Yami asked politely.
"No, not really. I figured you guys think the same and duel the same, so you're pretty much the same," Mai said coolly.
"Besides when I beat you, it's make all the more sweeter," Mai winked and walked to enter her end of the platform.
Yami smiled and walked to his side.
Seto turned and looked around in the shadows, Duel Monsters, or Shadow People walked around them like nothing, went and disappeared.
"They are being summoned for duels," Kite stated.
Seto nodded and looked around, then he saw the most strangest thing, a Dark Magician, was making his way to them.
He turned to see, Tao's eyes light up as he smiled.
Quickly making his way to the Dark Magician, Tao throws his arms his neck, as the Dark Magician wrapped his around his waist.
"Dar," Tao smiled.
"Tao," Dar whispered and quickly but passionately kissed Tao.
"I'm sorry, I'm being summoned, I'll be back," Dar whispered in his ear and tightened his hold on Tao before disappearing, causing him to pout from the loss of warmth.
Yami smiled as Mai gracefully forfeited the duel. He had to admit he doubted anyone could be as gracefully or as full of pride as Mai. She had a way of doing it with style. But she did promise to beat him next time, and he accepted the challenge.
Joey was up next. Neat less to say, he had his ups and downs but in the end, Bandit Keith didn't have a change. He did feel a pang of guilt when he defeated him in the finals. But Joey still considered him a good friend.
Then there was one more duel to go, and then he could free them.
Yami waited as Pegasus prepared his deck. He couldn't snake the feeling that something was wrong.
Yami turned when he heard Mokuba calling his name.
"Yami come here please," the young boy called.
He walked over to the young boy who was holding his beloved brother on his lap. The group had found some cushions for him and Ryou to be sitting on while they held on to Seto's body.
"Here, I don't think Seto would mind if you would use these to beat Pegasus," Mokuba said as he held three cards in his hand.
Yami smiled and took the cards, thanking Mokuba.
He looked down and quickly swiped away a strand of hair from Seto's forehead.
Yami quickly stood and walked away never noticing the pair of golden eyes watching him.
He watched the Pharaoh walking away, he couldn't help but grin. It seemed he still had feelings for him.
He waited until Yami was far enough to call Tristan.
"Tristan, would you mind holding Kaiba for a bit, I'm not feeling so good, I need some air," he stated politely.
"Sure, Ryou, do you want someone to go with you?" Tristan asked as he took his place.
"No it's okay, I'll be fine," he stated as he walked off. It wasn't like they would have gone with him anyways; they would be too in to the duel to even notice he was gone. But he failed to notice a certain blonde watching him leave.
He need to get away before the Pharaoh figured out he wasn't Ryou. He had left his light sleeping in their room. The only reason he didn't notice was because he was to busy with Kaiba. Thou he would miss him, he slowed down, after all these years he'd find him now, and best friend with the Pharaoh and his light, no doubt, just his luck. He was worth the Pharaoh's wrath.
"Bakura," a voice that haunted him called him out.
He turned to find a brown eyed blonde duelist looking at him.
"Joey, what are you…"
"I know who you are, you're the Spirit of the Millennium Ring," Joey said as he walked to him.
"True, then why are you walking this way instead of running the other way,"
"Because I would rather be doing this," Joey said as he quickly reached out and grabbed hold one of Bakura's arms and pulling him forward flush against his body.
Before Bakura could say anything, Joey covered his mouth with his own, and wrapped his arms his waist.
Bakura moaned as the kiss deepened and he placed his hands flat against Joey's chest.
He pushed Joey to the wall, allowing both of them to breathe. Bakura pressed himself against Joey's body, rubbing against him.
"You're right, this is much better," Bakura said as he nuzzled Joey's neck.
Joey smiled and wrapped an arm around his waist and the other snaked up his back taking hold of Bakura's neck and hand, forcing the Spirit of the Millennium Ring into and other passionate kiss.
Yes, he was definitely worth the Pharaoh's wrath.
Pegasus calmly strolled to his area with a smile of his face. Yami didn't like it. It seemed the Creator of Duel Monsters had something up his sleeves.
Pegasus could help but grin; Yami and Yugi have no idea of the ace up his sleeve.
"Wait, you're dating the Dark Magician of Yami and Yugi?" Seto asked.
"Yes, but not the original of the Pharaoh, he was married, Dar is his son," Tao said.
"And the three of you grew up together?" Seto asked Kyra and Tao.
"Four. Dar has a younger sister, Dark Magician Girl, my best friend," Kyra stated.
"And her name is?"
"Aryna,"
"This is too weird," Seto said as he shook his head.
Before any of them could talk, there was a flash and near the group lay a wounded Dark Magician.
"Dar," Tao shouted and ran to his love.
Kneeling down Tao lifted Dar's head to rest on his lap.
"What happened?" Kyra asked as the group went to them.
"They're in the final battle between Yami and Pegasus," Dar answered.
Kite had his hands on Seto's shoulders.
"I take it, Yami wasn't winning," Seto asked.
As Dar ready was to answer, Seto felt Kite disappearing behind him.
"Kite?" Seto turned.
Kite smiled," I am being summoned by Yami."
I hope you like it.
