Okay like I promised since I got 3 reviews before Sunday I have a new chapter waiting for you. I hope you weren't too confused last chapter. I want to thank everyone who has read and review this story. And I really hope by now you have realized the paring of yugi and Atemu. And I am sure by now your asking where in the world has Yugi's grandfather been? Right?.. And for those of you who asked what happen to Ryou. That will be answered next chapter hopefully.

Chapter 7

Going, going, Gone

Yugi lay on his bed. Think, His grandpa had been gone all day and he wouldn't return till dinner, which yugi hoped would be soon. ' Does grandpa plan to do this everyday? Surely he wont want be to stay here, but what if?" yugi thought to himself.

" I wish I could see the sunset," yugi said out loud before standing up from his bed. " No I will go see the sunset, I think the garden is the best place I could watch it," yugi said out loud as he walked toward the garden.

The garden beauty was magnified by the begging colors of the sunset. The sky was a rainbow of colors, a type of beauty that can't be described with words.

Yugi could fell his mind easing. He was at peace for the moment, the days' twist and turns and strange happenings seemed like a distant dream that never happen.

That was until yugi felt strong arms warp them sleeves around himself. Yugi let out a sigh.

" A warning would be nice Atemu," yugi said still upset as his decision

" That would be any fun now would it yugi?" Atemu said, his voice and breath playing right next to his ear.

For some reason yugi could feel himself turning red. ' Why does this happen! I am mad at him but why is it when he's near me I don't and I get a strange feeling?' yugi thought to himself.

" Yugi did you know this is my favorite spot to watch the sunset?" Atemu said in a loving tone

" Really?" yugi asked in amazement, this pharaoh had a softer side to himself.

" You're like a puzzle," yugi muttered under his breath. Yami head was close enough to hear what yugi said.

" Oh why do you say that little one?" Atemu said and with out yugi knowing it pulling him to the ground and leaning his head against Yugi's soft hair.

" It's hard to figure you out, I think I have all the pieces but I find out there is more to you," yugi said

Atemu smirked even thought yugi could see it, but he could feel his deep chuckle.

" Little one did you really think I am some sort of heartless person? " Atemu asked

"…Not really" yugi said after finding the right words.

" Little one, I am sorry if I made you mad at me earlier today, but…I" Atemu began to say as he turned yugi around and looked him in the eye.

" Atemu what's wrong?" yugi asked curiously

" Yugi, do you have you ever loved someone but was afraid to tell them?"

Before yugi could answer Atemu looked away a tinge of red showing in his face.

' was-was he going to ask what I think he was going to ask! that would explain things.. Better' yugi thought to himself.

Meanwhile with Bakura

' Just a little longer' Bakura thought to himself as he heard a door unlocked and the sounds of a palace guard coming towards his cell.

"Bakura smirked as the guard was in front of the cell.

" Here you lazy bum," the guard said. Holding out a small meager sandwich to the thief.

Bakura reached out for the hand the held the sandwich and grasped the guards wrist bring the guard close to him and took the dagger that was hidden behind his back he stabbed the guard. The guard slump against the cage and Bakura took his keys.

And unlocked the cage. As he stepped out he placed the dagger he had back behind his back.

" Now dawns the day of my revenge." Bakura said calmly as he took the guards clothing and put them on and pushed the guard's dead body into his cleaned began to walk towards the exit.

The guard at the exit noticed something strange about the guard that returned from feeding the thief. Bakura fisted up the front of the other guard's shirt.

' I want my revenge to be a challenge' " tell the pharaoh he's days are numbered," Bakura, said and before he let the guard gone cut the guards faced and liked the blood of his dagger.

" Let the fun began"

Bakura took great action as he heard screams of fear of his escaped. Bakura felt happy that his escaped cased so much fear.

Back with Atemu and yugi.

Yugi was resting against Atemu when the guards came. " My pharaoh it's not safe for you to be out here, Bakura has escaped!"

In Yugi's mind heard ' Bakura has escaped' " Bakura? The guy from the prison area?' yugi asked waking up

Atemu as he pulled yugi up looked down at him in a worried expression " you met him?"

" Yes, I made Kathy take me to see him" yugi said not knowing what kind of trouble he had gotten himself into

" Come yugi you're in danger," Atemu said as he dragged yugi into the place. In the corridors, Kathy was running in search too of Bakura as she accidentally ran into yugi.

" Sorry," Kathy said simply lifting her self off from the ground.

Atemu looked down at the girl that was the 'light' of his sister; he looked deep into her eyes judging her soul.

" So you had no clue Bakura was going to escape you are to guard yugi with your life once the safe room is reached," Atemu demeaned.

Kathy frowned following Atemu. " I really hate when you do that and don't warn a person," Kathy said annoyed but knew perfectly well that it was needed. He didn't want to place his precious eye candy in the hands of accomplices of a person who might me aftertime.

The safe room was atop many stairs and slowly the trio climbed them.

From the shadows down the hall carrying a golden pyramid Bakura stood.' This is becoming too easy soon the midget will be in my hands and I will kill him' Bakura thought with a smirk

Back with Atemu and co

The stairs had finally ended at the foot of a door. With a simple knob. Atemu opened the door to a simple room, like most rooms in the placed use or not this room was mostly dust free but lacked the more abundant accessory. The room contained a dresser with a chair, a bed, a bathroom, and a fireplace. Atemu closed and locked the door.

And Atemu turned around and looked at yugi. " Yugi I must leave you in hear till Bakura is captured it will be safer this way," Atemu sad sadly.

Yugi didn't know why but he felt tears coming down his eyes. 'Why am I crying?" yugi asked himself.

It was emotionally moment, Atemu bend down to Yugi's ear. " In case, something happens, I want you to know…I love you little one," and before he pulled fully away he gave yugi a peak.

Yugi was stunned and silent. Atemu was unsure what to expect from the quietness and so with a fluid monition Atemu went to the fireplace, and must have pushed something for a secret passageway was reviled and he traveled down it. And it closed up right behind him.

Yugi was dazed out. 'He loves me? But he, me..?' yugi thought trying to understand his thoughts or even if he swung that way. Maybe he did love the overly possessive pharaoh; then again maybe he didn't if he could ever get the chance he would have to look more into the matters.

" Yugi why are you crying?" Kathy asked moving toward yugi.

Yugi could feel some sort of pain in his heart what if he never did see Atemu again, he could never say if he felt the same way or not. How can you hate some one but maybe love them at the same time?

" I don't know why," yugi said as a thought it him. " Why in the world is their a fireplace here?" yugi asked looking at Kathy trying to stop the tears from falling of his face.

Kathy rolled her eyes. " I said we mostly stay towards the old way, there are a few modern things here, it does get pretty cold at night also it doubles a s a secrete passage way if the other side hasn't been locked, which Atemu probably did," Kathy said off hand as she walked towards a desk pulling out a feather pen and some papyrus paper.

Yugi stood in his spot frozen' what is she doing,' millions f thoughts ran throughout his mind a malicious laughter was heard coming form behind the door.

Leaving the paper on the desk Kathy walked up to yugi.

" Yugi, bakua.. He might or is after you….. I can only do so much to help. He knows me to well and. he might use that to his advances. But yugi I give you my word on my life,.. I will do whatever I can .. To keep you as safe as I can.. From Bakura, I promise just trust me,"

Yugi wasn't sure but the look in Kathy's eyes where fear, what did she fear, was he safer being around her or aloe with the thief. Being the type of person he was he trusted Kathy.

" You know women, you shouldn't make promise you can't keep," came the sadistic voice of Bakura as the door opened

" And you little brat, it would have done you better if I never saw you, your life would have been spared, but now I hold it in my hands," Bakura said with a smirk as he closed the door with a softly as not to alert any sound. His steps seemed to slow down time as he came closer and closer to yugi. Each step breaking the small silence.

His arm reached out and caught yugi in the through and lifted him of the ground pain, pain f dying slowly. His vision blurred. ' Didn't Kathy promise to protect him, was she lying' yugi thought in a cloud way till he felt to the ground coughing

" Women, don't interfere, let go,.. I wasn't going to really kill the brat now, that's no fun" Bakura sad sadistically. Yugi was still trying to get precious air into his system as he once again felt he was being pulled up form the ground.

" Now for the perfect escape" Bakura muttered he, yugi and Kathy lifted the room, everything was the way Atemu left it except for the piece of papyrus on the desk, the darken skies made for the prefect getaway for the trio. Silently as the search for Bakura ended the trio where out of the palace area and was among the Nile in a small little abounded house a brief pit-top or a devious perfect place for a hid out.. What made it a perfect hid out was that since the house was nearly invisible with the sands of Egypt.

Back with Atemu.

Atemu climbed the secret passage way with Yugi's grandpa right behind him. The passageway was quite their footsteps echoed throughout the passageway, once they entered the room it was emptied.

" YUGI!" Atemu and Solomon shouted no answer "Kathy!" Atemu shouted next no answer.

" Atemu look at this, Solomon's said as he saw the sheet of papyrus it was both a note of conference and of fear.

Dear Atemu,

I must leave you for now. I must follow go with Bakura when he comes. Following Bakura is the only way to ensure yugi will live.. And not be killed right away. Or later by Bakura. It is the only way Atemu! By going I can at least try and hopeful stop Bakura if he tries to….. Kill yugi.

Atemu I give you my word on my life,.. I will do whatever I can.. To keep yugi as safe as I can.. From Bakura. Please trust me Atemu

Please believe that I haven't betrayed you or yugi.

And Solomon grandpa. . Like I have said to Atemu, I give you my word that I will do whatever I can to keep yugi safe, and hopeful bring him back soon.

-Kathy

P.s. I hope I can bring yugi back to you soon.
