Chapter 03: Brand New World
Yami spent his time sitting with Yugi until he woke up, while holding his hand the whole time. One sleepy amythest eye fluttered open, and for a moment, he looked confused as to where he was before relizing Yami was there sitting next to him.
Yami looked directly into his eye and smiled sweetly. "Hey sleeping beauty."
Slowly he smiled in return, struggling to sit up.
Yami helped him to sit up. "I didn't leave for for even a second. I know you needed me."
Quickly he lantched onto Yami, burying his face into the leather covered chest.
Yami held him eagerly. "I missed you too.." He kissed his forehead and ran a hand through his hair. "Joey was in here earlier. He's with Seto now."
"Missed you so much..." Yugi was shaking slightly, somewhat scared that Yami would vanish again.
Yami rocked him in his arms. "Oh, you're so strong...so brave..."
Yugi sniffled a bit and relaxed to the rocking; it always comforted him more than most things.

A figure watched them in secret from outside their window and spoke into his communicator. "He's not gonna leave him alone. He's like the thing from hell that won't give up guarding him."
Grumbling was heard at first from the other end. "He will have to eat and he will also need to bathe, love. Knowing the small one he will spend most of the day sleeping."
XoXoXoXoXo
It was probably a whole day before the figure was startled awake by Yami's calm voice speaking to Yugi. "How about I get you some soup?"
Yugi's single eye blinked for a moment at the question before finally nodding, just starting to feel hungry
Yami headed into the hall, promising Yugi to come back, just as the figure outside whispered into the communicator. "He's going to get soup for him."
"Now's your chance to slip in and nab him!" came the reply.
He nodded and started to open the window, slipping in. Yugi heard the slight noise and sat up slightly, looking for the source of the sound before settling back down again. A shadow loomed over him before a large hand cuffed his mouth. Furry arms grasped and pulled him from his bed. Yugi gave a muffled cry of terror and started struggling wildly to get free.
The furry, spiny figure called into his communicator. "Start the gateway, I got him!"
The one at the other end gave the signal that he got the message, and a point of light emitted from the middle of the room, growing larger into some kind of dimentional gateway.
Before the gate was completely up, Yami came back in, only to drop the tray of soup his had been carrying and yell as he saw a weird black and red spiny creature try to kidnap Yugi. "YUGI!"
The creature growled. "Aw crap! Pet, problem! Forget about landing coodenates, just drop the entrance anywhere!"
"Right."
Yami dashed forward to knock the creature away from Yugi and grabbed Yugi in his arms. "I gotcha!"
At this point Yugi was crying and he clung tightly to Yami in despration. The creature growled and started to tackle Yami and Yugi, only to knock them into the portal. Terrified, the teen cried out in dismay, trying to keep his grip on Yami.
The creature started to go after them when he heard the sounds on the other side that he didn't like. He paniced and yelled into the communicator. "Close the gateway! Close it!"
There was growling on the other side of the communicator, cursing up a storm at the same time as the gateway closed.
"SHIT...open a gateway back to the base, we're gonna need a new plan..."
There was a loud click as the communicator was shut off. A new gateway began to open.
XoXoXoXo
Yami and Yugi fell into some tall grass just as the gateway behind them closed, leaving them outside somewhere. They were greeted by someone shouting. "OKAY BUDDY! GET UP WITH YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR!"
The small teen was totally terrified by this point, clinging tightly to Yami as he whimpered fearfully.
Yami was slow to stand up above the tall grass, surrounded by armed furry creatures. They saw Yami and sighed. An orange fox thing with two furry tails lowered his gun. "Stand down guys, its just Yami!"
Yami blinked at this statement.
Yugi's single frightened amythest eye peered out from where he was hiding his face to see what was going on.
The furry creatures peered at them before a pink spiny creature poked a scarlet red creature that was standing beside her. "Hey look! Yami captured Shadow's stupid little pet project!"
Purest confusion showed on Yugi's face at that before turning his face complety towards the strange creatures, the bandage still in place.
The pink one blinked at seeing Yugi's face. "Uh..." The orange fox snapped his fingers. "Hey I get it! Yami made a big scene at the club so he can sneak out and go undercover without Shadow or his army trying to look for him!"
Yugi was REALLY confused now. "Huh...? Who's Shadow?"
The fox looked at Yami. "What'd ya do, gouge out his eye AND smack his head real hard?"
The reminder of what had happened to his eye hit Yugi hard, going complety pale as the memory of how it happened came back to him.
Yami blinked at them. "...what are you people?"
The furry creatures sweatdropped before looking to the red one for advice.
Yugi whimpered and looked up to Yami. "I wanna go home Yami... Please...?"
Yami looked at him. "Home? I don't even know how we GOT here!"
The fox looked at the red creature. "What ya think? They they both got bonked on the head?"
The one scrached his head slightly in thought. "Or maybe its the wrong set."
"Or maybe its a trick on Shadow's behalf, its not the first time he's pulled this kind of stunt."
Confused, hungry, tired, and still scared the small teen slowly started crying, burying his face against Yami's chest.
The fox looked at the red one. "I vote we take them back to base. Yami went missing and I KNOW Sonic wants to kill him...or bawl his eyes out for dissappearing..."
He snickered slightly at that. "More like have a hissy fit and throw him right back out."
He laughed. "I'd like to see that...shall we go, Captian Knuckles?"
The smirk appeared at that. "Lead the way, Tails."
"Alright!" He happily led the troop, the furries escorting Yami, who carried Yugi in his arms, towards what looked like a grand city constructed of white crystal. Furry creatures were EVERYwhere.
Yugi was highly frightened, all the animal-like creatures reminded him too much of the one who took his eye. Some of them reconizing Yugi scowled at him. There were also humans, and human crosses with animal ears and tails. Frightened whimpers slowly started to emerge from Yugi, burying his face into Yami's chest again. They came upon a grand palace; which they entered in. Animals, humans, and crosses all hanging about for one reason or another. They were escorted to a den where a loud cheer was heard as it was filled with different people that ran and shook Yami's hand. The small teen was pale by now, shaking in fear as he held onto the confused Yami as tightly as possible, his single amythest eye showing true terror.
Yami finally yelled out, startling everyone in the room. "ENOUGH!"
The red echidna Knuckles jumped slightly, noticing that everyone had moved away in reaction to Yami's outburst.
Yami hugged Yugi tighter and spoke quieter. "You're scaring him."
Knuckles' violet eyes blinked at that, looking closely at the smaller teen for a moment before regonizing the signs of terror.
The pink one blinked. "Did he just say what I thought he said?"
Knuckles nodded at the question. "Amy, tell Sonic to speak to me later alright?"
She nodded and dashed off. Tails spoke. "I don't get it. Yami HATES Yugi. Yugi is...is is...a FREAK of nature! Shadow's little pet project. A rather POOR attempt to clone Yami!"
"I think these two are not the ones we are familiar with, Tails."
He blinked. "Is that possible?"
Knuckles eyed the young fox. "Do the math Tails. Shadow can chaos control can he not? What exactly does Chaos Control do?"
"Space and time, Knux, not dimentions."
"Space is part of dimentions Tails. Now, what if he is able to go to another world and brings others from there to here?"
"I suppose, but WHY?"
"To throw us into confusion, which is exactly happening right now. Shadow would never allow his pet to become harmed; and yet here Yugi is with several clear injuries and terrified of US!"
"Probably-"
They were disrupted by a howl from the next room. "HEY WOLF-EARS! GOT YOUR PROTO-TYPE CARDS!" A blonde human with dog ears and tail ran through, gripping a deck of cards.
A single amythest eyes blinked at seeing that. "Joey...?"
The human in question saw Yugi and yelped, causing cards to go flying and fluttered to the floor. Startled, Yugi darted behind Yami in reaction.
Joey looked at the cards on the floor. "Oh god, I'm dead..."
Yugi murmured. "Sorry..."
"MUTT! Where the hell are you!" came a VERY familiar shout.
Joey turned to Yami. "Yami, hide me and I won't tell Sonic you're back."
Yami blinked. "Uh...?"
Yugi peeked out from behind Yami at that. "Who's Sonic?"
Joey started to reply, but he yelped and ducked behind Yami.
A furious blue-eyed wolf ear and tailed teen stormed into the room. "JOEY! WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON YOU, ITS STRAIGHT TO OBEDENICE SCHOOL FOR YOU!"
Yami blinked. "...Seto...?"
The brunette blinked now and looked in his direction. "Yami? Your back?"
Tails popped some gum into his mouth as he plopped into a chair. "I still say he was smacked in the head. He was drinking pretty heavily that night and trashed the bar area pretty good." Yami blinked.
Purest confusion showed on Seto's face now. "But... How...?"
"That's not the only thing we found. Look at what else we picked up."
Blue eyes blinked before looking at Yami again, only then noticing the one hiding behind him. "He captured Yugi?"
Yami growled. "You know what? I don't know what's going on, but if all we're getting is hostility on Yugi, then we're leaving."
The highly distressed small teen was shaking badly now, his fever starting to return from all the excitement.
Yami looked back at Yugi and pulled him into his arms, cuddling him. "Oh, poor Yugi..."
Automatically he curled up within Yami's arms, crying into his chest again.
Yami turned back and glared at the group. "He needs HELP. He is SICK."
Knuckles was the first to move just as the pink spiny hedgehog creature came back in. "Amy, go get a room set up for Yugi."
She nodded and whirled about, running out. Yami moved to sit down, revealing Joey's hiding spot.
Giving a small snort, Seto snatched at one of Joey's ears.
Joey yelped. "Imsorryimsorryimsorry I didn't mean to drop those prototypes!"
"Pick them up, make sure they are NOT damaged and bring them to my room."
He whimpered but nodded. "Okay..."
Yami stared at Seto.
The brunette glanced back at him for a moment before walking off. Yami layed Yugi on the couch and made the mistake of walking into the next room, not expecting the next action. Emerald eyes fastened onto Yami instantly before a ball of blue screeched down the hall to tackle him.
Yami yelped and fell back, shocked to all hell. "OW!"
"You're back! Where the hell have you been!"
He struggled to get up. "What the heck!"
A blue hedgehog was sitting on him now. "Answer me, where have you been!"
Yami felt INCREDIBLY uncomftable with the hedgehog on top of him. "Wondering how the hell I got on this crazy world...SOMEONE HELP!"
Hearing Yami calling for help and relizing what had happened, the red guardian stuck his head into the hall. "Sonic, release him. He is not your Yami but one from another world."
Joey scampered in to pry Sonic off. "Come on buddy, not your Yami."
Yami blinked and scrambled up, staring at Sonic.
Confusion was showing on the hedgehog's face now. "What do you mean not my Yami?"
"He's like from another dimention or sommat..." Joey explained. "I dunno, I wasn't around for details."
Yami muttered. "I'm going back to sit with Yugi."
Blue quills stiffened at the mere mention of Yugi. "Don't tell me, the Yugi he is talking about is also not the Yugi of our world, right?"
Joey nodded. "Ya got that right. This one is like freakin scared...and he's only got one eye."
Emerald eyes blinked at that, allowing Joey to lead him away. "Weird..."
Joey talked to Sonic as they walked. "I think Yami's still hurt over what happened at the club. Granted, he shouldn't of drank so much, but all those girls..."
Sonic sighed. "I know... I just wish he would come home..."
"Well...its not helping yourself to watch the security footage every night..."
The hedgehog allowed his spines to droop sadly. "I was trying to find some clue in it as to where Yami would hide himself..."
"I'm sure he'll come back when he feels like he can face you."
"I miss him so much...I havn't been able to sleep since he left..."
"I know he misses you too."
"Then why won't he come home!"
"...he's probably scared to face you after he reacted the other night."
Sonic sighed, plopping onto a couch once they reached his room. "I want him back..."
"We need to get ya out of this moping. Come on, I'll take ya to a club tonight with me an Seto."
Emerald eyes narrowed slightly. "I don't do clubs anymore Joey."
"Okay, you have any suggestions?"
"How about a get together down in the lounge and watch a movie?"
"That sounds good."
A small smile appeared on his face. "Thanks Joey."
