Chapter 9 – Reunited

Yugi's eyes grew wide. He couldn't move out of the way fast enough. He was going to die…

"YUG!"

"N-nani?"

Dartz blinked as he landed on his butt, on the floor. Someone had kicked him away from Yugi. He glanced up to see one of Yugi's friends standing there.

"Jounouchi!"

Jounouchi glared at Dartz. "You touch Yami or Yug…and you WILL be sorry. Now get out of here ya freak!"

Dartz cursed under his breath. He stood up and step back away from Jounouchi, grinning.

"I will destroy you all one way or another…You'll see. Goodbye for now."

With that. Dartz let out an evil laughter and stepped into the shadows, disappearing.

Jounouchi turned to Yugi and kneeled down beside him.

"You, okay, Yug?"

"Hai…I'm fine Jou. But…Yami…"

Jounouchi stared at Yami. He picked up one of Yami's hands and looked for a pulse on his wrist. It was there. It was weak, but still there. Jounouchi smiled lightly and looked at Yugi.

"It's alright, Yug. He's not dead."

Yugi's eyes widen and he smiled brightly. "Really?"

"He's not dead, but he might die if we don't get him medical attention quickly. Now come on, let's get Yami back home to the hospital."

Yugi nodded. He stood up, and with Jounouchi's help, carried him out of the cabin to the others. They all made their way back up onto Seto's helicopter. Seto had one of his assistants get Yugi a wet washing cloth to press against Yami's wound.

"Please hold on, Mou Hitori No Boku…"

Anzu put a comforting hand on Yugi's shoulder.

"It'll be okay, Yugi…"

Yugi sighed deeply. He wasn't so sure that Anzu was right. Anzu frowned as she saw her words didn't make Yugi feel any better. She took her hand off his shoulder and sat there, deep in thought.


"Please let Yami be okay…"

Yugi and the others were sitting in the waiting room, waiting for the news on Yami. Seto's helicopter had landed a few minutes ago on top of the Domino Hospital.

Yugi was so scared. He didn't want to lose his Yami…And if Yami didn't make it, it was because of himself. He killed Yami…He was the one who stabbed Yami.

"M-mou Hitori N-no B-boku…"

"Yug…It'll be okay." Jounouchi said, sitting next to Yugi.

"Iie Jou…what if he dies? Then I'll know it was my fault he died…I stabbed him…How could I-"

"Yug, You had no control of yourself. Dartz brainwashed you and made you attack Yami. You didn't do it on free will. Dartz made you do it against your will. Yami will be okay, Yug. He knows it wasn't your fault and he will never be mad at cha. He loves ya, Yug. Have faith. It'll all be okay in the end."

Yugi looked up at his friend, smiling softly.

"Domo A-arigatou, Jounouchi…"

Jounouchi smiled. "Anything for my best bud in da world!"

Yugi was about to say something when a man walked towards them, holding a clipboard. Everyone could tell it was the doctor. "Are you all here for Yami Moto?"

Yugi glanced at him. "H-hai."

The doctor looked at Yugi. "Are you Yugi Moto?"

Yugi nodded.

The doctor smiled at him. "Yami will be fine. He just needs to rest. If you wish, you may go see him now."

Yugi smiled brightly. He got up and walked out of the waiting room and down the hall to Yami's room. He opened the door slowly and stepped in, shutting the door behind him.

"Aibou?"

Yugi looked over to Yami and smiled, tears filling his eyes. "Mou Hitori No Boku…"

Yami smiled at his Hikari. "I'm fine, Yugi. I'm feeling alright. The nurses gave me some painkillers to get rid of the pain in my stomach wound."

Yugi frowned. Yami noticed this and blinked.

"Nani desu ka, Aibou?"

"G-gomen Nasi…Yami…"

Yami blinked again. "Nani?"

"It's my fault you are like this. I stabbed you with the knife…Gomen N-nasi…"

Yami frowned. He looked sternly at Yugi.

"Aibou…Come here."

Yugi blinked at Yami's voice. It had grown more deep and serious then ever. Yugi felt scared, that Yami hated him and would never forgive him. Yugi slowly walked over to Yami's bed as Yami asked.

Yami pointed to the chair next to his bed. "Sit."

Yugi did so.

Yami smiled a rare smile. He chuckled softly. "I never knew I had a pet dog."

Yugi blinked and looked at Yami, confused.

Yami brought a hand to Yugi's cheek and kissed him. Yugi quickly respond to it.

They parted a few moments later and stared at each other. The silence felt like forever. Yugi had lots of questions and thoughts running through his mind. He didn't understand why his Yami had kissed him, and was not yelling at him that he was a horrible person, and that he never wanted to see him again.

Yami's thoughts were on how he was so happy to have Yugi as his Koi. He stared at Yugi's beautiful angelic face. He always felt so calm around his Aibou. It was heaven to him.

Both of their thoughts were interrupted by Yugi's soft voice.

"Yami…?"

Yami chuckled. He sensed the fear in his tenshi's voice. "Aibou…I do not hate you and I never will. You know that it wasn't your fault on how I got like this. Dartz was controlling you. Please Aibou, stop taking the blame when you didn't do anything…"

Yugi smiled softly at Yami. "Aishiteru, Yami. Forever."

Yami smiled. "Hai, Aibou. Aishiteru."

"Yug?"

Yugi turned to see Jounouchi and the others standing at the doorway. He smiled at them. "Come on in guys."

Everyone walked into Yami's room and circled around his bed.

"Man, We were scared! We didn't know if you were going to make it, Yami!" Honda said.

Yami chuckled. "I'm fine guys. Really. I just need some rest."

"Mou Hitori No Boku?"

Yami blinked. "Hai, Aibou?"

Yugi smiled at him. "Let's go home."

A smile pressed its way on Yami's lips. "Hai…Let's."
