Eh heh heh, so I was right. Gomen Nasai for the hiatus again!

Here's a nice long chapter as my apology!

/Stuff inside this/ - dreams, visions, and flashbacks in general.

As awareness returned, Pegasus noticed two things: One, he was getting mighty sick of being unconscious and Two, something was blowing hot air on his face.

Upon opening his eye, Pegasus was given a small heart attack as he was faced with a gigantic pool of navy blue less then an inch from his face.

"Time to wake up sleepy-head!"

He groaned as Terra's voice echoed through his sore brain.

"Please, never do that again," he said as he got more fully awake.

"Sure thing Peggy-kun."

They were still in the hospital room.

"Where have you been?" He asked.

"Around," Terra said, waving the question away with a wave of her hand. "First things first, we've got some work to do."

"What work?"

Terra's expression went more serious.

"Well, do you _want_ to keep running out of energy?"

She waited for his response but he was confused.

"Energy?"

"Duh," she said. "Your body had the Eye in it so long that it got too dependant on the energy from it. Unless we fix it you're going to go into a permanent coma by tomorrow and probably die in a year."

That being a very unpleasant idea, Pegasus asked, "What can I do?"

"Very little. But _I_ can fix things right up for you," Terra said cheerfully.

She held her left hand open over the left side of Pegasus's face.

"You may be asleep for a day or three," she warned right before her hand began glowing with a bright blue light.

Annoyed, Pegasus didn't resist the wave of darkness over his vision. He might have had he known what was in store for him.

A series of visions appeared to him.

/The sun shining brilliantly overhead, no worries underneath it. Except for a single one. In a village, a man was weeping over the dying body of his wife. A very small child peeked around the doorway, strange orangey eyes also wet with tears…/

The scene shifted.

/The man whose wife had died was now dead himself. His second wife, with her son from her previous husband, was making preparations. The small child of before was a short yet lanky boy, and now one could see the strangeness of his hair. Down the center a stripe of mixed colors was vivid. Gold, silver, and ruby hair that stood out from the mottled brown-and-black of the rest. His hair was cut very strangely as well, the bangs long and covering his eyes…/

Now another shift.

/The same boy, now a young man, faced his older 'brother'.

"This is my house now," the elder one was saying. "Get out, worthless thing!"

The young man covered his distinctive hair with a cloth before leaving with only the clothes on his back…/

"…Master Pegasus?"

Gradually, Pegasus realized he was awake and that Croquet was staring at him.

"Huh?"

"Told ya he was awake!" A second voice inserted. "This is totally normal."

The silver-haired billionaire sat up abruptly, only to pause in shock that he _could_ sit up, and so easily. Terra winked at him before vanishing into thin air.

"Sir, how are you feeling?"

"Actually," Pegasus admitted, "A lot better."

He sat on the edge of the bed and tested his legs. Meanwhile, Croquet began filling him in on how Industrial Illusions had been doing since he'd first gone comatose.

Thanks to Dungeon Dice sales, and the release of a few new booster packs, the company had thrived even while it's CEO had been out of commission. On a more amusing note, Pegasus learned that Otogi Ryuuji had been sending in daily inquires of his health as soon as he heard of Pegasus's hospitalization.

He told Croquet to inform the hospital staff that he was checking out and changed into his standard suit once he was gone. Terra reappeared after another moment.

"What next Peggy-kun?"

"Frankly, I haven't a clue," Pegasus admitted.

"Good," Terra said in delight, "Because I do know. Things are moving very quickly. You missed Kaiba's little tournament starting. You need to keep a low profile until it finishes. Got any relatives you've been avoiding?"

Pegasus shook his head. Then an idea came to him.

"I _do_ have one person I _might_ be able to stay with," he said slowly…
