Yami/walks off/

Lost in ones soul

Yami felt the tug of the millennium puzzle. Lights streamed past him as he entered the realm of shadows. His spirit formed in this plane. And there before him was his loyal servant.
"Dark magician?"
"Greetings my pharaoh" Yami went forth and hugged his friend. The dark magician had been bound to the millennium puzzle like most of his loyal monsters. With the Puzzle shattered Atemu's power had failed and he had become Yami. He had little control of the shadow realm now. Only able to call the red dragon when needed.
"I need your help old friend"
"You seek the young one, the one who completed your puzzle"
"Yes, where is he" the dark magician sighed.
"It will not be an easy task, he will have to face his past. He is trapped in it now. Come. I will show you" The dark magician started to walk away, Yami got into step beside him. They walked the swirling mass that was the shadow realm, purple mixed with black, red and other colures that had no name, but they were dark. Finally they came to a part of the shadow realm were many monsters were gathered. There in the centre, curled into a ball was Yugi. The shadow monster Kuriboh was keening beside him, the Dark magician girl had him cradled, stroking his hair.
"My Pharaoh" she exclaimed upon seeing him, and Kuriboh nearly knocked him to the ground. Yami quietened the little fur ball then knelt beside Yugi.
"Yugi?" but the boy made no movement.
"Atemu, you will have to go into his memories to save him" the dark magician girl spoke. But was then whacked on the head by the dark magician
"Mana, what have I told you, its Pharaoh"
"Sorry master, but it doesn't change what I said," replied the slightly miffed dark magician girl.
"What my apprentices says is true my Pharaoh. You must bring him from his nightmare."
" I will do whatever it takes" Yami looked lovingly down at the boy. He had to save his soul.
"Very well, we will use our magic to send you there. Are you ready?" Yami nodded the dark magician and dark magician girl pointed their staffs at Yami. There was a flash.

He opened his eyes to daylight, he shrank back. But when his skin failed to burn he stood. He was in a garden of a small house. He could see various Egyptian artefacts in the house through the open door. He looked around the garden, a small Koi pond in one corner. Some Sakura trees. He walked into the house. He saw things from his homeland, and then a picture caught his eye. It was taken by the pyramids. And there stood a man and women. The women with beautiful amethyst eyes. And long black hair. Beside her stood a man. Hair not too unlike his own. But was flatter. But he had the blond bangs. His eyes of pure crimson looked cruel. To the right was an older man. His hair grey. But he looked kind-hearted. And in front of them all could only be Yugi. He looked about four. Smiling. The box of the puzzle in his hand. He turned, hearing a small sob from out side. There beside the Koi pond was a small Yugi, crying. Yami walked up and knelt beside him. Yugi could only be five, his small form racked with sobs. In his hand he held the golden box of the millennium puzzle.
"What is wrong young one?" the small boy turned his eyes to the older look alike, crystal tears streamed from those amethyst eyes.
"Mommy and daddy are dead. Have to go and live with grandpa"
"What happened?"
"Their plane hit the ground, I'm all alone now" the boy looked sadly at the ground, Yami was about to reply that he was never alone. Not with him. But the scene changed. It was of Yugi running. It was in a dank ally. He was in what looked to be a school uniform. Yami tried to help but couldn't move, he saw bullies catch him, beat him. After they left the small crying boy. Yami found his limbs could move.
"Yugi are you alright?"
"It's you again. Yes I'm ok. I'm used to it by now"
"What do you mean used to it? How often does this happen?"
"All the time" the voice so alone broke Yami's heart. He saw the boy get up and pick up the golden box. Before the scene changed yet again. He heard the boy speak.
"At lest I have my puzzle. It will give me a friend"

Yami now found himself in something more recent; they flashed past, the father returning to claim his son. Threatening his father, the beating by Ushio. It all slowed down to the moment he hit Yugi. When he thought he had betrayed him. He felt a presence behind him; he whirled round to see a broken Yugi behind him.
"What are you doing here?" the boy spoke, quiet, eyes hidden
"I came to help you"
"Why do you care?" the voice remained the same.
" Of course I care…I…."
"YOU DON'T CARE, YOU'RE LIKE THE REST. YOU HIT ME ATEMU" Yugi shouted, his rage and sorrow melding in that voice. Yami's eyes opened wide. He had called him by his true name.
"I am sorry I hit you. There are things in my past…as Atemu. That makes me hard to trust others." Yami walked towards Yugi, embracing the small one. "Please forgive me"
"Why should I" Yugi looked down not wanting to look into those crimson eyes.
"Because one, I don't want you to turn out like me. All alone. A monster. And two….because I love you Yugi. It took me awhile to realise this. But it's true" Yami looked at the boy. But when he heard no reply he turned away. Tears stinging his eyes. The scene changed round him. But this was not one of Yugi's memories…. This was his own.

"Beloved, it is me…Atemu" Yami turned to the voice seeing himself "no"
"You are not Atemu. Atemu is dead, you are a monster. You are YAMI" the girl lunged at his form. Yami fell to his knees seeing this. Tears falling. He saw the puzzle cut from his neck. Saw the one he trusted and loved try to kill him. He later found out it had been her that changed him into a nightwalker. Betrayal shot through him like a knife-edge. It changed to the market. He was staked out, waiting for Ra's light. His people shouted at him, called him monster. His tears ran. But then he felt arms encircle him from behind
"Your not a monster Atemu" then he was free, he looked behind him to see Yugi hugging him. He turned embraced the boy back. Buried his face in his hair he cried. The great Pharaoh of Egypt cried, his pain and sorrow. They watched the scene of the staking. Saw his only other friend save him…Seto.
"Looks like we both needed to confront our past" Yugi said looking into his crimson eyes. Atemu nodded back.
"I love you too Atemu……oh is it all right to call you that" Yami smiled at the child like worry in those amethyst eyes.
"Yes Hikari. But only from you." Yami leaned slowly forward, and claimed sweet silk lips for his own. They fit together like pieces of a puzzle. Yami brought him closer, needing to hold him. needing to know it was alright. They broke the kiss. Yami did not want to rush the small one. His soul was weak, from what he had to endure, and the loss of blood in his body.
"Come Yugi. Lets go home" Yugi took his hand. The world of nightmare dissolved. And they were back with the shadow monsters. Yami looked down to Yugi's spirit. It blinked then jumped into his arms laughing. Yami couldn't help but join in. they looked up to the monsters and saw the same joy. Yugi looked to the dark magician
"Hello Dark magician"
"It is good to see you again young master" the dark magician bowed, but was knocked over by an over excited Dark magician girl
"YAY YUGI" she took the teen from Yami's arms. Hugging the boy. Yami looked down to the dark magician, and side stepped, he was twitching……as in his eyes. Which was always a bad sign.
"MANA!" the Dark magician roared.
"EEEEP" the Dark magician girl gently put Yugi down…..then ran away very fast. With the dark magician following. Yami came to stand beside Yugi.
"How do you know them?"
"When I completed the puzzle. I would dream of them. And you." The boy blushed, making him look even more cute….. If that was possible. "Are they always like this?"
"For as long as I can remember" Yami laughed. He would not claim his true name yet. But he would allow Yugi to call him it when they were alone. In the background the dark magician was yelling at manna not to call Yugi, Yugi., but young master.
"He won't hurt her will he?"
"What the dark magician. No. He thinks of her like a daughter. She just gets a little over excited. The worst she gets is an ear pulling as he drags her off to another lesson." Yami chuckled at the memory. He looked down when Yugi yawned.
"Come. Lets go back and sleep." Yugi nodded. The bid farewell to the shadow monsters and returned to their bodies. Yami opened his eyes. To look straight into Amethyst.
"Don't leave me" came the weak voice.
"I'll never leave you I swear" Yami kissed the teen's forehead. Then pulled the covers back. He joined him in the bed. Yugi cuddled up to him, feeling safe in Yami's strong embrace he began to drift off.
"Good night my Pharaoh" Yami smiled.
"Good night Aibou. Tomorrow night we will see and old friend. He will make you feel better" he felt Yugi nod into his chest. Then burying his face in Yugi's strawberry scented hair. He joined his love in blissful slumber.

Yami: yay, Yugi's saved. And I got to kiss him

KITG: calm down Yami. You got to see Seto next.

DM: MANA GET BACK HERE

KITG:sweat drops: they still at it?

Yami:sweat drops also: yeah. She still insists on calling Yugi…Yugi.

KITG: what's wrong with that?

Yami: well you know what a stickler the DM is for rules, and conduct.

KITG: true.:Books fly past: HEY WATCH IT:BONK:XX

DM: MANA NOW LOOK WHAT YOU DID

DMG: COMW ON. IT WASN'T MY FAULT, SHE SHOULD HAVE DUCKED

Yami: Well I hope she sees it that way

DM: NOW YOU'RE IN FOR IT COME HERE: Drags off DMG by ear:

DMG: ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow.

Yugi: oh thought I had better point out. When KITG used Koi. She didn't mean love pond hehehe. She meant Koi-carp it is a Japanese fish. They are highly prized in Japan and go for loads. Nearly all japans homes have a Koi pond. Ja ne.

KITG: just like to point out why there are some mistakes. This is a convert from Adultfanfiction. Where his uncle hurts him and his father is dead. I have to change a few things, but I ask you to bear with me. When it is done I will go through it all, and maybe even rewriting it. To get rid of the mistakes. Gomen

The adult fan fiction one obviously has more graphic scenes than are allowed on here. If you want to go read it feel free. It under the same name. Though my pen name is just KITG.
