Sapphire Gardevoir: Coolies! Seven reviews in one day! I wasn't expecting that!

Yuugi: What can I say. I'm adorable! And people like cute things. Now, please read and review. (Puppy eyes)

Star Enfinity: Save it for the end.

"Yuugi?" Solomon Motou knocked lightly on Yuugi's door. Not getting an answer (and we all know why) he walked in. He was used to his grandson's usual mess and stepped almost expertly over each toy. Yuugi only seemed asleep to him. His breathing was even and his features were relaxed. A faint smile danced on his lips, oblivious to the company in his room.

"Must have stayed up all night again." And it wasn't that far from the truth. "Best leave him be."

Quietly as he came in, he exited.

Atemu watched silently as his little aibou slept. He had meant for the boy to relax for what he had to do, but not pass out. The bonding ritual was short but painful, and he did not want him to feel any pain anymore. That's what he was there for; to make Yuugi as comfortable in life as he could be.

Atemu closed his eyes and concentraited. A soft light emitted from his hands and traveled down towards Yuugi's sleeping form, eveloping him as well. He chanted softly so as not to wake him and rested one his hands on Yuugi's back and the other on his head. The light pulsed and Yuugi flinched in his sleep. It got hotter on his body and he began to whimper.

"Shh." Atemu soothed. "It's almost done."

And in an instant it was over. Yuugi jolted awake and looked around him. Seeing that he was in that special room again he calmed, but remained wary.

"Where…what's going on?" His eyes locked onto Atemu's and pleaded for answers.

"Nothing is going on. You were just asleep."

"Where is this place?"

Atemu looked at him skeptically. "Have you not been here before?"

"Yes, I have. Once. It was nice but then I left, and went to your room. Then I don't know what happened."

"Hmmm."

Neither said anything for a while and Yuugi yawned, but with bordom.

"Are you tired again?"

Shake. "No. I just…don't really know what to do. On top of that, I'm really confused."

The other nodded. "I understand. Perhaps you would like me to tell you about this place. And who I am."

Yuugi's eyes brightened and he nodded enthusiastically. "Yeah, that would help."

Atemu sighed and shifted on the bed they were on. On a second thought he reached over and brought Yuugi into his lap setting him there. Yuugi blushed at the awkward situation.

"Um…what are you doing?" He was nervous now, and he stuttered.

Atemu looked unconcerned about Yuugi's discomfort. "It's a long story and I want you to be comfortable. Now where to start."

His gaze drifted as if seeing his own story playing before his eyes. "Ah! I'm not exactly sure how long, but I've been confined inside the puzzle you have for...at least two thousand years."

"Wait wait wait." Yuugi interuppted. "How could a human being be stuck inside a puzzle not even bigger then my head? It's not possible."

"Magic. With magic it's very simple." He reasoned.

"What? There's no such thing as magic."

Atemu smirked. "Yes there is. But let me go on, it will all make sense soon. Before I was sealed, I was the pharoah of Kemet. I was very powerful, not to boast or anything. But some people were envious of it. My power that is, and they tried to stop me."

He waited to let it sink in, but Yuugi seemed to have trouble with all of it. Regardless, he moved on.

"Before I go any farther, I might want to explain a little more about the magic part. Not everyone could just use magic. You had to have been born a magic weilder. No one knew if they were or not until they became fifteen. When they did, they each had a special dream that differed with each individual. In the dream you would be granted a partner. Usually they were some sort of creature, the most common being a fox or cat. The more gifted one's were sometimes giving stronger monsters like wizards or wolves. I was one of the gifted, and because of my own power I received a wizard.

Your partner would stay with you until your death, training you and guiding you with your magical abilities. Eventually they could become solid and others could see them, but they had to stay hidden or else they would most likely be taken. Anyway. A group of magic weilders had decided to try and overthrow anyone they could find. But to do that they needed stronger partners. You see, they were the very few that could tell if they had powers before their fifteenth year. When they did, they trained themselves as best they could away from their families. Are you following?"

He looked down at Yuugi who gaped back at him. Slowly he nodded for him to continue.

"Right. When it was the night for them to have the dream, they received their partners as planned. However, because of the months of secret training, they weren't normal partners. They were dragons. Dragons were already real before that, but were kept away from Kemet. And for good reason. There were only three of them created that night by the children, but it was still a dangerous situation. Each dragon, like other mind partners, had formed over the years inside the children's minds, and so they were very powerful. Each one as large as a tree, and very vicious.

They all had different abilities; one could breathe fire of course, the second could spit acid, and the third could charm anyone with it's breath. They needed no training after being created and already they were solid. The children were delighted and immediately mounted their dragons, heading for the royal palace itself."

Yuugi had calmed slightly and was listening intently. Atemu's deep voice hypnotized him, and he couldn't interupt even if he wanted to.

"When they reached the palace, their dragons destroyed the outer walls, a feat that in of itself. The pharoah at that time had his most powerful mages confront them, but they were to powerful. While the fire and acid spitting dragons destroyed as much as they could, the charming dragon and it's female rider snuck towards the pharoah himself. He was my father."

Yuugi gasped. "I'm sorry. Was he killed?"

Atemu frowned. "Yes, but he did fight as well as he could. But the dragon, a Mist dragon as they're called, charmed him with it's breath. In a daze, my father set loose his own mind partner on himself. It had to obey, and obediantly it destroyed him."

Yuugi yawned and nodded to show he was still listening. Atemu smirked. "Let's continue this another day. You should awaken in the real world and let your family know that you are not ill. I imagine you must have slept for quite a while."

"But I'm not asleep. Unless this is all a dream."

"I'll explain that later. Just close your eyes and imagine your own room."

Yuugi did so, not wanting to ask anymore questions for fear that it would just confuse him more. The second he saw his room, he was there sitting up on his bed as if he never left.

"How did I get here? Wasn't I just…"

A sense of amusment tickled his mind and he wondered why in the world he would laugh at himself.

"Maybe I should eat something. I think I'm losing my mind."

Inside Yuugi's soul room, Atemu smiled. "No little one. You have just found it."
