All by the Moment

Chapter III:

Fork over the explanation, Yami!

Mizuki: Well, another chapter this is...

Martina: I'd like to thank the people who have reviewed so far-

Mizuki: And even the person who gave me my first flame!-

Martina: Let me just answer that person with...-

Mizuki: Owe ya! Thanks to the mysterious one, I remembered that I forgot to mention that this fic is one of them OOCs, so don't expect your favourite characters to act normal. Imagine them in the looniest state possible. As for the Malik thing, I REALLY am sorry. I knew he was just six and well... Innocent! But I had doubts. Because for your information, that season hasn't reached the Philippines yet so I'm partially totally clueless. The only way I saw him and learned about him was from the net and my friends... And some of those lines must have been switched from Malik to Marik and vice versa. Confusing, ne?

Martina: Anywayz, the usual drill, preview of last scene last chapter...

A long blonde-haired teenager stood by the window. The light of the candle illuminated his deep lavender eyes. He had a handsome face and a slender figure. He leaned by the window, deep in thought. 'Pathetic... This is just too easy... But the pharaoh's group is getting unto me. I'd better look out. These dumb minions of mine can't even do a simple job right!'

"Kitana-sama, the job is done."

"I hope you idiots didn't screw this mission up. It would cause all of you your lives!". 'The time is up my dear brother. Vengeance is now!'

Martina: Disclaimer!

Mizuki: Since we've used up too much of this fic with our A/Ns... we'll make it simple-

Martina: We no own Yu-gi-oh... I wish we did! (breaks into sobs)

Mizuki: Whatever... T.T Let's continue shall we? But first, I'll have to give you a grammar check minna-san! For one, minna means everyone, oni-chan- brother, baka-idiot, tori-atam would mean roosterhead. This name would be Kura/ Marik's nickname for Yami...

Mizuki: On with the fic!

With Yugi's Gang…

"I don't get it. Who could have done this?", Yami was walking back and forth, his hand on his chin. "Hey Yami, what about him?", asked Bakura.

"Who?"

"Kintana"

Yami suddenly stopped. Yami's expression suddenly changed from worried…--- to shocked. Yugi looked at his yami anxiously and asked, "Yami, are you all right?". Yami looked at him, this time his eyes filled with guilt. When he turned his eyes away, Bakura was able to figure his strange actions.

"I knew it! Someone must've woken him up... You were too idle on that brother of yours... and to think you didn't even give ME a chance", Bakura said in an irritated voice.

"I didn't think it was possible!", Yami retorted.

"Huh...What's going on?", asked a confused Malik. "Honestly Malik, I don't really know...", said Ryou as everyone continued to stare at the two arguing yamis. "It's.Your. Fault!", shouted Bakura at Yami.

"Yami? Tell me, what's going on?", Yugi asked Yami as he slowly approached him.

"Remember that conversation we had earlier?"

"Yeah..." Suddenly it struck Yugi. "This wouldn't have anything to do with that now, would it?".

"It would, everything about it has a connection with our current situation", he stood up and turned to Yugi. "Oh you mean that time traveling thing?"

"Exactly"

"But you said you've banned it long ago?"

"Compared to what he did, that would fall as an understatement", said Malik. "From what I heard from Isis, he didn't just ban it, he made sure that it would never happen again!".

"Meaning?", asked Yugi. "Means he made every person that knew the ceremony disappear into the shadow realm", said Malik a matter-of-factly.

"Everyone but one...", Bakura walked into their conversation. "The very person that started the damn time exploring thing anyway".

"It was a mistake, I know!... But he was-"

"Your brother", Bakura said finishing his statement. "He was my HALF- brother. It's just that rather than sending him to the shadow realm, I sealed him in a millennium item hoping that he'd change his ways! When the ominous dreams started a week ago, I didn't think anyone would even find them".

"Which millennium item? I though there aere only six millenium items", Ryou asked.

"No, there was another. I sealed him in a pendant that resembled a design of what you should call a chocker-"

"Wait, wait! Back up.You mean you've already had the dreams and still you didn't do anything about it! You' are too stupid for your, no, OUR own good!"

"Don't you dare mock me if you wouldn't want a slow and painful death Bakura!"

"I dare you! You've always been weak in mind you stupid pharaoh!"

"Kura!", shouted Ryou. Bakura suddenly looked like a two-year old that just got scolded by his mother.

"Yami, please stop shouting. You shouldn't lose your temper like that", Yugi told Yami. As if Yami did listen to his hikari, he cared for him dearly and didn't want to offend him in anyway possible. So, he sat still on the ledge, waiting for someone else to break the cloak of silence that now befell everyone.

"So, what we're saying is that everything that's happening right now, is just some sort of ceremony that was started by starfish-head's stupid little brother", Marik concluded, making the silence hang. "I loved my brother just like any other older sibling should", Yami said as he walked towards the nearest ledge.

He looked beyond and continued, "I guess the death of his mother was too much... His mother, my step-mom, was always abused by our father. I guess he was still sore when he discovered she had killed my mother. But that never stopped me from being nice to him, though. I couldn't understand why he got himself into that kind of business anyway! I only thought that sealing him into a millennium item would only be for the better...".

Everyone suddenly felt a bit of guilt inside. How were they suppose to know how Yami felt when he never really said his feelings out loud anyway. Yugi went towards Yami and put his hand on his shoulder (Martina: If that were possible. He's too short!Mizuki: Shush!).

Yami stood straight and looked at everyone. "Minna, I'll be going, to find my brother. I'd have to correct my past".

"Where you go Yami, I go, too!"

"Yugi..."

Ryou stepped forward and smiled at the two. "This adventure sounds very promising. I think I'll go as well!".

"I'd have to go too then! I can't just leave my hikari with you so don't get any ideas!",Bakura said as he approached the sheepishly smiling Ryou.

"I wanna go too!"

"Malik-"

"Please!", Malik stared at his yami with an innocent look on his face. "Well, what are we waiting for! Let's go!". Yami stopped Marik. He spoke, "We'll have to find the others first. They might be in grave danger...!"
