After bidding his friends goodbye, he and Wolfe headed home, never knowing who was waiting there for him.

At a small tavern in Precinct, Yami sat with his friends, telling them about the small boy he met today. "So, you met a kid that looked exactly like you at today's race, and you plan to meet with him later on today?" Marik asked. Yami nodded.
"Yeah, there's something about him that I want to know more about."
"Are you sure this is a good idea, Yami?" Seto asked. "I'm sure. He seems to be a nice kid and I have a feeling that we could become friends." He replied as he finished off his glass of wine and got up. "Well, it time for me to go. I'll see you guys later." Yami said and left out of the tavern.
He climbed onto Aqua's back and they were off to Sun City. On the way, they met up with Keara and her wyrm dragon, Veeshan. "Hey, Yami." She greeted as she walked beside him. "So where are you two heading?"
"We're going to the Motou Dragon stables. We met a boy at the race today and he has caught my attention greatly compared to others."
"Really, Yugi has caught your attention?" Keara asked. "So, that's his name." Yami murmured. 'Yugi. I like the sound of that.'
"Yeah, I met him a while back when I entered in one of the races in Mid City. He is a very big fan of yours and he always wants to have a chance to meet with you but every time you have a race, he could never come to watch it because he had so much work to do." Keara said. Yami nodded.
"Well, we better get going. Got to get ready for the next race. See you later, Yami." Keara said as Veeshan turned to head down to Down City for the next race. "Hmm, so Yugi has been a fan of me and my races for a long time. That gives me an idea. Come on Aqua, we need to stop somewhere real quick."
"Sometimes, I worry about your ideas Yami." Aqua said quietly as he turned and was led down to the store Yami wanted to go to.

Yugi sat on the gate of Wolfe's stable, feeding the dragon from his feeding pouch. He was still a little concerned about Yami coming over. Why was one of the best racers so interested in him out of all people? Yugi still pondered that question. His grandfather left out a while back to get some more supplies so that left him alone.
'I'm still worried. I should be happy that Yami is coming over to my place out of all places he's been to. But what if I'm right, what if this is only a one-time thing?' he wondered, deeply saddened by the thought. Wolfe looked up to him and crooned softly and he looked down to him. "I don't know what to think, boy. I'm happy that Yami of all people is coming to the stables but what if this is the only time I'll ever get this close to him?" Yugi questioned, looking down.
"Now what makes you think I wouldn't visit you more?" A voice said behind him and he jumped up and turned to see Yami there. He smiled softly and jumped off the gate. "I didn't notice you come in Yami." Yugi said shyly. "Don't worry about that Yugi. Besides," he started as he pulled out a single red rose from behind him. "I got this for you." Yugi gaped at the rose before he took it silently.
"I...oh my…thank you, Yami. It's pretty." Yugi whispered, blushing. Yami smiled. "So Yugi, tell me more about yourself." Yami said as he and Yugi went to sit on a nearby bench. They talked for a while, liking the peace but that was ruined when they heard something crashing to the ground nearby. "What's going on?" he whispered as he looked up to Yami. "I'm sorry to cut our time short together but I better go check what's up." He murmured and Yami nodded.
Yugi got up from the bench he was sitting on and went over to where the crash came from. He gasped when he saw half of the stables were demolished and they still were. He looked around for the culprit and saw a brown demolition dragon destroying more of the stables. Anzu was the only person that came to mind to have any physical motive to mess up the stables this badly.
'Only she would do something like this...'
The support beam that was holding the stable up was starting to crack more and he ran over quickly to hold the beam up before the entire set of stables fell apart. "Come back, Lila~ We got more work to do." Anzu called and the demolition dragon left from the stable to follow her rider's orders.
Yugi continued to try and hold the beam from falling but due to his stature, it was starting to become impossible to keep his strength up. He was worried the whole structure would fall upon him before Yami came to see what took so long to check. 'Well, at least I gotten the chance to talk with him...' he thought as a tear slipped from his eyes. He almost gave up and was about to let the stable fall upon him but a shadow came over him and he looked up to see Aqua pushing the beam back upright.
"Now you think we were going to let something happen to you, Yugi." Yami said as he walked up behind the smaller teen and pulled him back as Aqua finish placing the beam back in place. It may not hold for long but at least it will keep the stable up until they can get a new support beam for it.
"Thank you, Aqua." Yugi said and the dragon turned to him with a small smile and nodded. Yami placed a hand on Yugi's shoulder and he looked up to him. "Do you know what happened here? I know that support beams such as this wouldn't crack so easily." Yami inquired. "Anzu did this. She must be angry that I have caught your attention so easily compared to all the time she tried after your races." He replied.
Aqua growled, remembering about the girl. He has seen her many times before and he wasn't too fond of her and her dragon. "Great. I know of her and she is a nuisance. We better find her before she takes down more of the stables." Yami said as he climbed onto Aqua's back and lifted Yugi up with him.
Aqua looked around and finally saw her. She and Lila were heading in the direction of where Wolfe's stable was. 'She better not be doing what I think she planning.' Aqua thought, growling a little as he started to run in that direction.

"Well, well~ If it isn't little Wolfe in his stable. Seems you don't have anywhere to go." Anzu sneered and the blue dragon growled at her but hissed in pain as Lila let out a strong mag burst to hit him. "Well, I guess Yugi would be fine without his dragon. Lila, destroy the stable and make sure he crushed under the weight." she snipped and the dragon nodded as she got ready to make a hard charge to the support beam that held up Wolfe's stable.
"Hold it right there, Anzu!" Yami snapped as Aqua jumped in front of them. "Oh, Yami. I didn't know you were here. What brought you here?" she asked, quite surprised to see him there. But she was even more surprised to see Yugi right behind him. "We came here to spend some time with Yugi until you showed up and ruined it. What brought you here to ruin the stables?" he questioned, Aqua growling at Lila when she tried to come near him.
"Um, well…" She really didn't have a reason prepared and was left speechless. "If you don't have a reason, I suggest you leave." he hissed darkly. She nodded as she got onto Lila' back and left without argument. Yami nodded to Aqua and he let out a strong mag burst to hit Lila and the dragon yelped before running off.
Yugi smiled up to Yami and blushed when he realized he had his arms wrapped around the taller teen's waist and let go before climbing off Aqua's back. "Thank you for helping me save the stables and Wolfe." Yugi whispered. "It was nothing, Yugi. We couldn't let anything happen to you." he said and Aqua nodded his agreement.
"After all this, it makes me wonder. Where is my grandfather? It shouldn't have taken him this long to get supplies. Taurus may be old but he can still carry heavy tools back here with ease." Yugi wondered to himself. "Let's hope that at least nothing happened to him when he was gone." Yami murmured.

Unfortunately for them, Sugoroku was caught by some of the riders that worked for the Demon Eye crew and he was held at their compound. The leader kept a close eye on Yami and Aqua and found out that they were interested by Yugi and if they have someone related to the young boy, getting the Black Jewel Dragon shouldn't be a problem now.
Luckily for Yami, Keara saw them and was currently making her way back to Sun City to tell them what happened. 'And we need to act fast. I know that the Demon Eye crew specializes in wraith dragon and they are hard to come by. If they get Yugi then I have a feeling Yami with be making a risky decision for Yugi's safety.' Keara thought.
