Yuugi sighed. Izama and Joey had gone out to buy cleaning supplies an hour ago and when they left he found something quite disturbing. He didn't know how he overlooked it. It was right there, on the wall. Even more disturbing than the fact someone was here, was that whoever it was wanted to see him! He didn't know anyone that would do this. Except Anzu. No, she wouldn't do that. Even though they definitely weren't friends anymore, she to much of a goody-two-shoes to do that. As a matter of fact, Yuugi hadn't seen her around lately.

'I'm just making too much of it. She's probably out for break.'

Boy was he wrong.

'Should I even go? I know Grandpa would never let me go! But…he sure sounded nice in the letter. I just hope he does clean my house. That's it, I'm going.'

Yuugi looked over to the clock, silenly hoping it wasn't midnight yet. But Izama and Joey did go out pretty late so he wasn't to surprised when it was eleven thirty.

"I guess I should go then."

He wrote a note, grabbed his jacket and was out the door.

Guys,

I just went out for a walk. Be back soon.

Yuugi.

(The Park)

The clock tower just struck midnight, and no one was out. Yuugi wasn't sure if he should have gone in the first place. It might have been better if it was a little earlier and someone was here, just in case.

'I just hope he doesn't hurt me. What if he's a stalker? (Sebastion: Not to far from the truth.) What if he..rapes me? Oh, now I really don't want to be here!'

"Hello there Little One. I didn't think you would come." A deep yet comforting voice scared him.

He whirled around to face him. Only to end up looking like an idiot. This guy was hot! This..god! Was dressed all in leather, that fit his frame like a second skin, showing off a well built chest and the muscles in his arms. (A/N: drool) And the eyes. Oh those firey red eyes! It was like they bore right through you! He had assorted chains and buckles on his wrists, neck, and belts. And his hair! It looked just like his! Which is weird cause' he thought nobody had hair like his. It was sort of unusual. The only difference was a few extra streaks of blond jetting up into the black and red.

'He probably thinks I'm strange.'

"On the contrary, I think your quite beautiful." He smirked, showing off pearly white..fangs?!

"How..How did you know what I was thinking?" Yuugi stuttered.

"I can read your mind. Quite simple really."

He noticed Yuugi staring and smiled, a bit devilishly.

"You like what you see?"

Yuugi felt himself nodding.

"Well, you haven't seen everything yet."

Yuugi blushed. Was this guy serious?"

"Um..well I uh."

'Hmm. What a dirty mind he has. I thought he was the innocent one. Well this will make it even more interesting.'

"I think you took it the wrong way small one. I didn't mean that."

"Huh?! No! I..I wasn't thinking about that! I was just uh.."

"Don't worry. I know. I sort of, have that effect on people."

"Oh. Well what did you want to see me for? I got your message." Yuugi's anger started to rise, remembering what he did to his grandpa's house. But it subsided when he remembered all the new things this man gave him.

"Yes, that. I just wanted to get to know you. That's all. I also wanted to make sure you were okay." He replied with, was that concern in his voice?

Yuugi went to sit down.

"Well why wouldn't I be alright?"

"I know you get picked on a lot so I came to make sure you were alright. But when you weren't there I got worried."

Yuugi gave him a skeptical look.

"How did you know I get picked on? How do you even know who I am? I've never met you before."

'Shit. Think fast vampy.'

"Look. I will be honest with you. I'm not exactly human. Don't be afraid though, I wont hurt you."

"I know your not. I can see your wings." Yuugi said with slight fear in his voice. He pointed to the appendages coming out of his back.

"Oh. Right. Look I've been watching you for a while. I saw you get picked on, I've seen you be beaten by bullies. I saw you when you were only a child, getting abused by your parents." He said the last part slowly, as if afraid to say it.

"I saw them whip you, cut you. And I saw your mother rape you." He spit out those words like they were poison.

Yuugi was in tears.

"I wanted to kill them, stop your pain, but I couldn't. Ra said I shouldn't interfere."

"W-ho is Ra?"

"An Egyptian god. I'm from Egypt."

Yuugi nodded. Understanding.

"Like I was saying. I knew I couldn't help you then, but I can, and want, to help you now."

Yuugi looked into his eyes. Expecting to see deceit in them. But all he saw was genuine concern, and love there. He knew then he could trust him.

"I-I believe you. At first I didn't but no one knows about my parents except my Grandfather. I hope you didn't just guess though."

Yuugi tried to smile, but just fell to the ground in sobs. Yami ran over and gathered him into his arms. Yuugi wasted no time in burying his head into his protector's chest, crying his eyes out.

"Please don't tell anyone about my parents. I don't want them to worry."

"I wont, but you should. Keeping it to your self wont help. And your friends might be hurt that you didn't tell them sooner."

Yuugi sniffed. "I know. I just don't want them to feel bad to."

Yami smiled and stroked his hair. "Always thinking of others aren't you?"

Yuugi looked up. "Hey, I never got your name. I think you signed the note but it was in another language."

"It was in Egyptian, and my name is Yami. Yami Atemu.
