A/N – Last Chapter.


Yami laid flat out on his back on his narrow bed. Three days after Isis had told him it was impossible to change him back, Yugi had arrived home so now the former Pharaoh was back at the game shop.

A week had gone by, and Yami had done little but mope around in his room. His friends had come by daily in attempts to cheer him up but nothing had worked.

Yami hadn't spoken to Seto since the day he left the mansion; Seto's gifts were hidden under his bed so that the others wouldn't find out about them. In addition to the clothes, the brunet had given him a laptop and cell phone; claiming that Yami could still have access to the outside world.

"Other me, please get up," Yugi begged walking into the bedroom without knocking. "You're scaring me with the way you're acting."

"I'm sorry Aibou," came the reply but Yami made no indication of moving; which made Yugi sigh heavily.

"Kaiba-kun called this afternoon. He was wondering why you haven't called him all week."

"I haven't felt like it."

"Honestly, I was surprised; Kaiba-kun seemed genuinely concerned about you. You must have really made an impression on him while you were there. Jounouchi-kun was here when it happened. He was floored that the great and powerful Kaiba would lower himself to actually caring about someone."

"Seto's not that bad!" Yami protested finally sitting up. He glared at his aibou when he saw the grin on Yugi's face.

"I figured that would get you up."

Yami laid back down. "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Come on Other Me, I'm not an idiot. Mokuba has been calling here since you left wondering what you were up to. He always made sure to mention that you were missed around the mansion. Besides, since when have you called Kaiba-kun 'Seto'? Seems to me, something happened while you were there."

"Nothing happened Aibou."

"I know you. Something is bothering you besides the fact you have to remain like this. Don't make me kick you out, forcing you to go back to stay with him."

"Nothing happened."

"Did you kiss him?"

Atemu sat up again. "Aibou!"

"What? I said I knew you. It's plainly obvious you like him."

"I'm not having his conversation Aibou."

"Perhaps I should call Bakura-kun and Malik-kun. Isis-san has returned to Egypt so those two are free to cause chaos again."

Yami sadly sighed and hung his head. "I don't deserve Seto. He should be with someone who can actually go outside."

"So you two are together?"

"…Yes."

"Other me…I'm sure Kaiba-kun doesn't care. Since when has he ever cared about what other people thought about him? Besides, he's brilliant. If anyone can come up with a scientific way to cure you, it'll be him."

"All I want is for Seto to be happy."

Yugi sat down next to Yami and hugged him. "He's happy with you. Mokuba told me he's never seen his brother this happy."

"I've been a jerk. I've done nothing but ignore him all week."

"Call him; invite him over after work."

Yami shook his head. "I can't wait that long." Dropping to the floor, Yami dug under his bed. His tail swayed excitedly back and forth.

"What are you doing?" Yugi inquired, watching him pull out a large box. Opening the lid of it, Yami yanked out his jacket and hat and slipped them on. "Wow. You look normal."

"I need to go talk to Seto and apologize."

Yugi smiled. "Don't come back without getting laid."

Yami glared at his aibou before breaking him out in a smile. "Too late for that."

"Ew…I did not need to know that Other Me."

Yami grinned and hurried off; running fast his short legs made it downtown in no time; fortunately the Kame Game Shop was near the downtown business area so Yami didn't have far to go.

Spying the tall Kaiba Corporation headquarters, Yami hurried inside; his footsteps echoed throughout the massive first floor as he headed towards the elevators knowing that Seto office would be on the top floor; the security guards had other plans for him however.

"Excuse me but you must check in at the front desk first," spoke one of the three buff guards that approached him. Absentmindedly Yami tugged his hat further down on his head. "Visitors are only allowed access to certain levels."

"Umm…okay…" Looking towards where the guard was pointing, Yami saw the massive desk in the center of the room.

Again Yami's footsteps echoed across the room as he walked towards the desk to speak with the young man sitting behind it. "Those guards said I had to check in here first."

"Yes," the man promptly replied. "Whom do you have an appointment with?"

"Kaiba Seto."

The man flat out laughed at him and Yami made a mental note to tell Seto to fire him. "Yeah right. Only people pre-approved can visit Seto-sama."

Yami narrowed his eyes at the man. "I am!" he insisted, wishing he had brought his cell phone, which already had all of Seto's numbers programmed into it.

"Fine," the man sighed, appearing as if it was his duty to amuse Yami for the day. "Name?"

"Mutou Yami."

The man checked the computer and paled when he found Yami's name. "My apologies Mutou-sama. You may go right up."

"That's better," Yami huffed before marching back over to the elevators. He gave the guards a glare as he passed; this time they knew better then to stop him.

The door, dinged close behind him and the annoying elevator music began playing; Yami made another mental note to get Seto to change the music in the elevator.

Up the elevator rose, the little butterflies in Yami's stomach began swirling, wondering if he was making the right decision. Seto could be pissed at him for being ignored the entire week.

Before Yami could worry further, the elevator came to a stop and opened towards a spacious empty hallway. Yami walked forward, his feet sinking down into the plush navy carpet. Eventually he reached the end of the hall where a woman sat behind a desk, smiling politely.

"You may go right in Mutou-sama." Apparently Seto had put his name on a list that gave him immediate access to the CEO. "Seto-sama is currently in a meeting in the board room but will be along shortly."

Yami shoved opened the large doors and walked into Seto's large but simple office. Seto's empty desk sat in front of huge windows. Walking over to the windows, Yami stared outside. The Kaiba Corporation building was one of the tallest buildings in Domino allowing Yami to see almost anything; looking down at the street, Yami watched the people with envy as they went about their daily lives.

With a sigh, Yami walked over and plopped down on the black leather couch, which was next to the windows. Bored; Yami began to absentmindedly scratch at the arm of the couch with his claws.

"I knew I should have bought you a scratching post." Yami jumped and yanked his hand away with surprised; he hadn't expected Seto that soon. Looking up, he found Seto standing in the middle of the room wearing a crisp white suit with his arms crossed over his chest. "First my door and now my couch; I should make you pay for those things."

"I'm sorry." It was then he noticed that Seto was smiling at him.

"It's okay," Seto replied. Walking over to the couch, the brunet sat down beside Yami and wrapped an arm around his shoulders. "What are you doing here?"

"I wanted to apologize; I've been ignoring you this entire week."

"I assumed you were tired out from the loser dog chasing you. That Jounouchi needs to be kept on a leash."

Yami ignored the insult and hung his head. "I can't be fixed."

"Still trying to get neutered are you?"

Yami punched him in the arm. "I figured you deserved someone else since I can never be normal again but now I'm regretting it."

"I told you normal is boring," Seto scoffed, while pulling Yami closer.

"That's easy for you to say. Me; I 'm doomed to spending my days inside."

"You made it hear and no one noticed you."

"True…"

"So what makes you think you'll have to stay inside?"

"Something could happen; my hat could blow off or something like that!"

"So? Stop caring about what other people think."

Yami looked up at the brunet with a wide-eyed expression on his face; wondering if the CEO was serious. "You really think that is what I should do?"

Seto snorted. "Of course. We both know that only my opinion matters. By the way, you punch like a girl."

Yami couldn't help himself but laugh. Snuggling closer to Seto he began purring contently when he felt long fingers being run through his tri-colored hair. Somehow he knew that things would be okay.


Yami lounged on his stomach by the edge of the pool, the tip of his dangled over the side touching the cool water. He was shirtless; only wearing black and red swim shorts with a hole cut in the back of them for his tail. Needless to say, Yami was enjoying his vacation.

Yami's ears twitched hearing footsteps walking towards him but he didn't bother opening his eyes; he was far too tired after Seto kept him up late the night before. Turns out that 'slow' was not a word in the brunet's vocabulary, especially when it came to relationships but Yami sure wasn't complaining.

"Do you plan on doing anything today?"

"Not really."

It was too weeks into the business trip Seto had planed. The brunet, Yami and Mokuba were staying at the penthouse of Seto's hotel at Kaiba Land US. The penthouse included a private swimming pool on the roof, which was where Yami was currently laying.

"Figures I'd land a lazy boyfriend."

"I'm just being a cat Seto." Rolling over onto his back, Yami cracked open an eye and looked up at his lover towering over him. "Shouldn't you be working?"

"I'm waiting for Mokuba; we were testing a new water-coaster ride that was just completed and needed to change after getting soaking wet. We're heading back down in a half an hour."

"Ah so you want to play. What makes you think I'm willing to put out?"

"Is sex all you think about?"

On cue Yami began purring causing Seto's pants to tighten. "Looks like you're the one who only thinks about sex."

"That's not fair Yami."

"So what do you plan on doing about it?"

With a nudge of his foot, Seto pushed Yami into the pool.

"Kaiba!" Yami yelled as his head bobbed to the surface; with his arms Yami latched onto the edge of the pool. "You know I don't like water!"

"You fooled me considering the first time you ended up in my arms was when you fell into my pool. How do I know that just wasn't a ploy?"

"Jerk."

Seto bent down, grabbed Yami's hands and hoisted him up out of the pool. "There; I saved you again," he said holding Yami close. Bending over Seto placed his lips against Yami for a much needed kiss.

"I'm getting you wet," Yami murmured against Seto's lips.

"I don't care." Seto's mouth moved downwards towards Yami's neck where he was still wearing his cat collar. Seto liked the collar on Yami so the former Pharaoh continued to wear it.

"I thought you came back here to change."

"I did but I found something better."

Yami began purring. "Is that so?"

"Niisama! I'm ready to—oops…sorry."

Both Seto and Yami growled as they split apart. Turning around, Seto looked at Mokuba who was standing by the doorway. "Wait by the elevator; I need to change again."

"Okay Niisama," Mokuba replied before quickly running off.

With his younger brother gone, Seto turned back to Yami. "Come with us."

"I don't know…" It was hot out and Yami didn't really feel like dressing up in his outfit. For a while Seto had tried to convince him to go out as is but the ex-Pharaoh wasn't yet comfortable enough to do that.

"Come on, if anyone asks we'll just say you're dressed up as a new Duel Monster; Kaiba Land is the perfect place for you to get comfortable with yourself."

"Promise you'll never leave my side."

"I promise."

Yami smiled and hugged Seto tightly. The duo headed inside to change quickly before meeting up with Mokuba.

"Took you long enough," the younger Kaiba grumbled when he saw both Seto and Yami walking towards him hand in hand. "Are you coming with us Yami?"

"Yeah, Seto convinced me."

Mokuba beamed brightly. "Good."

"Yami's just lucky that I own this hotel and allowed him to stay despite the no pets policy."

Yami's ears were laid flat across his head as he scowled at his lover, who begun laughing at him.

The private elevator stopped at the ground floor and the trio began walking across the lobby where a disturbance was taking place at the front desk.

"What do you mean this hotel doesn't allow pets! I happen to know that another cat is staying at this hotel at this very moment!"

"I told you we should have left her at home."

Seto and Yami exchanged glances. "That can't be them," Yami muttered, looking over at the front desk where a blond and white-haired individual were arguing with the desk clerk; the white haired one was hanging onto a pet carrier with one hand; the cat inside was howling madly, clearly unhappy with the carrier.

"It is," Seto grumbled. "Think we should do anything?"

"We better before Bakura decides to burn the place down."

With a growl, Seto stormed over to the front desk. "What seems to be the problem here?"

"Our problem Priest is that your cat is allowed to stay here but not mine!" The King of Thieves protested.

"Just allow it," Seto told the front desk clerk who quickly nodded her head.

"Hey Kura, look who it is!" Malik happily cried pointing towards Yami.

"Scratchy!"

Yami groaned as everyone began looking over at him. Malik walked over to Yami and raised a hand as if he was going to pet Yami on the head. "Do it and you'll lose fingers."

"Ah I see you only allow Seto to pet you," Malik replied throwing Yami a wink.

"Malik…"

"Hey it's kinda cute! We should get together sometime and discuss our men."

Yami narrowed his eyes at the blond. "What are you two doing here anyway?"

"Vacation," Bakura replied joining Malik's side. By now he had let Killer out of her carrier to quiet her.

"Everyone else got to go on one," Malik added.

"And you just happened to choose here because…"

"Face it Snowball you'd be lost without us."

"It's good to see that you're not moping around inside anymore," Malik said with a bright smile on his face.

"You just want to torment me in public."

"Wow; he actually has a brain!"

"Knock it off Thief before I decide to kick you, your cat and your sex slave out of my hotel," Seto growled shoving them both out of the way so he could grab Yami's hand and lead him away from the two psychos with Mokuba following close behind. Seto didn't care if anyone saw them together; even before they left Japan rumors had started circulating that the CEO and the Game King were together in a relationship.

"Thank you for rescuing me back there."

"What kind of government would allow those two in the country? With any luck they'll be detained on their way back to Japan." Seto shot Yami a look. "How are you holding up anyway?"

"I'm okay…" No one had started laughing when Malik had drawn attention to him in the lobby, which was a good sign. Although he was getting a lot of looks as they walked through the park no one was saying anything. "It feels a little weird being out; having everyone look at me."

"You'll get use to it."

The day wore on as Yami wandered with Seto and Mokuba around the park as they inspected the newly built expansion for Kaiba Land US. Yami had to admit that the new rides were pretty amazing with the speed and loops; one would have thought an ancient spirit wouldn't like high tech modern technology but Yami appeared to be the exception, especially when they passed Bakura puking in a trashcan.

Yami wasn't bothered too much by his appearance. He got a lot of looks and a few quiet murmurs but nothing too serious.

"See things weren't that bad," Seto said later that night as they settled down on the bed in the master bedroom of the penthouse. At the end of the bed, the TV was on an English news channel; Yami really wasn't playing attention since he barely knew the language but then he saw a picture of himself and Seto from that afternoon appear on the display.

"Seto!" he hissed, nudging his brunet lover. "What are they saying?"

"Nothing much, something about the rumors of us being together are finally true."

"What did they say about my…appearance?"

"Nothing."

"Don't lie! Tell me what they said!"

"They said nothing."

Yami frowned. "But I'm a cat! Surely that's odd for them."

"Apparently not."

Yami shook his head. "This time period is weird."

"Tell me about it."

"Well they don't find it's weird that I'm a cat for one thing."

"It's just an expression Yami."

"Oh."

Seto wrapped his arms around Yami's body and cuddled close to him. "Are you actually going to sleep tonight instead of roaming around or do I need to wear you out again?"

Yami grinned. "Wear me out."

Complying, Seto rolled on top of Yami and gave him a sloppy kiss. Delightfully, the half cat began purring contently and wrapped his tail around their bodies, laying it on top of Seto's ass.
