Ikite kita noni
It was like something out of a nightmare. This couldn't possibly be happening. Yugi took a step in the room. It was cold as if death her self was there. He was crying, well more then that he was nearly screaming his pain. He stepped over to the bed where she lay. Blood covered the bed, not to mention the floor and walls. Ketten lay in the bed wrists bound to the bed posts. She was pale and seemingly lifeless. The bloody skin of her chest shown through her ripped shirt reveling deep welts. The soaked sheets silhouetted the rest of her broken body. Yugi, who was more then traumatized by the sight, crawled on the bed.
"Okasan?" He said.
"Okasan?!?!" He repeated through his sobs
"OKASAN!!!!!" He screamed then his put his arms around her letting out his sorrow. He pressed his cheek into her bloody shoulder. He cried. He cried harder the he had ever cried before.
"I'm sorry little one." A voice appeared from behind him at the door way. Yugi gently opened his eyes and turned from his mother's body. Riko stood in the doorway with that same blank look.
"I wanted to kill her when you were here but she wanted it so bad." Riko said as a sick smile appeared on his face. Yugi clung to his mother.
"Now I have to send you to hell with her." Riko said. He took a step towards Yugi. Yugi still sobbing scooted away.
"Mou hitori no boku!!" Yugi choked out. Yami quickly appeared in front of Yugi. Yami shot Riko a disgusted look. He would not let him hurt his other side anymore.
"Who the fuck are you?!" Riko demanded suddenly confused.
"You think this is amusing watching him suffer like this?" Yami said coldly. Riko only smirked.
"Get out of my way!" Riko yelled. Yugi shook at his voice. He looked up at Yami who seemed to be cool and not intimidated at all.
"I will not let you harm him any more." Yami said. Suddenly the room turned dark and they were surrounded by a thick gray fog.
"Is this some kind of joke?!" Riko yelled looking around.
"It's no joke. I'm going to ask you two questions. If you answer them truthfully then you will be free but if you answer them untruthfully then you will be punished." Yami said. Yugi was scared. His new surrounding were unbelievable. He clung to his mother tightly.
"Whatever." Riko sneered.
"Deep down inside your true self, did you care for Ketten?" Yami asked firmly
"That slut, HELL NO!" Riko cursed
"Have you ever cared for Yugi?" Yami asked.
"NEVER! STUPID SHIT! THAT'S WHY I HAVE TO RID MYSELF OF THEM FOREVER!" Riko yelled making Yugi shake as he lay hunched over his mother.
"Wrong answer." Yami said. Yami knew better. Riko wasn't always like this. Something changed him. Something evil.
Yami held up his hand in Riko's direction. Suddenly Riko was overcome by darkness. It engulfed him ripping at his mind then suddenly after a swirl of confusion they were once again, back in the room. Riko fell to the floor unconscious. Yugi was shaking not understanding what was going on. Yami turned to Yugi who was on the bed laying with his mother. Yugi squeezed his eyes shut.
"Aibou." Yami spoke softly.
Yugi cried. There wasn't anything else he wanted to do but cry. Yami sat down next to Yugi placing his hand on Yugi's shoulder to calm him. He would have given anything to stop his other half's pain but all he could do was sit by him as he let out all his tears. After a while Yugi has calmed down and only stared in a frightened gaze straight ahead.
"You have to tell someone." Yami spoke after a while. Yugi only nodded. Yugi finally got up from the bed and left the room Yami followed him down stairs where Yugi called the police. After which he turned to Yami again.
"You will have to go back in the puzzle." Yugi said calmly. Yami nodded. He waited until the police were visible then he returned back to the puzzle. Two police knocked at the door. The noise made Yugi jump but he calmed again then opened the door for them.
Both officers were shocked to see Yugi. The boy was covered in blood on his right side. It was matted in his hair and on his face and cloths. The female officer kneeled down next to him to look him over. The male officer mumbled his feelings under his breath.
"Are you hurt?" She said in a soft voice so she wouldn't scare him.
"Iie." Yugi said. The male officer walked around the room a bit looking things over.
"Can you show us where your mother is?" She asked.
Yugi nodded. He didn't want to go back up there but he turned to the steps once again. He began to cry softly as he walked back up the steps. The officers were disgusted at the seen. A blood trail leading into the room where Yugi was leading them.
Yugi slipped the door open and they walked in. Yugi looked around for Riko but he was gone. He became scared. Where could he have gone? Yami had disabled him not more then 20 minutes ago and he was unconscious on the floor. The male officer called for back up right away. The female officer kneeled next to Yugi once again.
"Yugi right?" She said confirming his name. Yugi nodded.
"My name is Suku. Let's go back downs stares." She said.
Yugi nodded. She took him down stairs where she put a blanket around him. Soon the place had all kinds of police. After a while Suku told Yugi they were going to take him to a temporary child placement home. By the time he got to this home it was late. Suku got out and walked Yugi to the door. A lady in a blue house dress opened the door. Yugi was still hugging the blanket that was around him.
"Yugi this is Kina-san. She will be taking care of you for a few days." Suku said. Yugi nodded.
Kina brought him in and quickly went to getting him cleaned up. She drew him a nice hot bath and then set out clean cloths for him. After he was done she showed him to the room where he would stay. Yugi sat down on the bed and drew his knees to his chest.
"Are you hungry? Would you like me to fix you something to eat?" Kina asked
"No thank you." Yugi said.
"Are you sure?" Kina asked. Yugi nodded.
"Okay try and get some rest. If you need anything please let me know. I will see you in the morning." She said then she shut the door softly behind her. Yugi laid down on the bed snuggling into the pillow. Tears slowly formed in his eyes.
"Mou hitori no boku?" Yugi said sniffling. Yami appeared right away. He sat next to Yugi who looked up at him.
"Don't be scared. I'm with you." Yami said laying down and putting his arms around Yugi.
Tears racked Yugi's eyes and clung onto Yami more as vision's of his mother passed his memory. He shook his head trying to forget and he snuggled his face into Yami's chest as he cried softly. Yami held onto Yugi stroking his hair gently. Yami began to softly sing to him to calm him down. Yugi listened to the melody as the tears slowly slid down his cheeks and fell to moisten Yami's shirt.

Soon Yugi had stopped crying. He rested peacefully on Yami's chest. They stayed in their embrace for the rest of the night. However, Yugi did not sleep. He stayed awaking concentrating on Yami's peaceful breathing trying to stop the visions of his dead mother.
***
The next day Kina checked on Yugi. She knocked on the door and waited for Yugi to say she could come in. Yugi lifted his gaze to the door. Yami had returned to the puzzle and Yugi huddled under the covers.
"Come in." Yugi said. Kina opened the door slowly. She knew Yugi hadn't slept. She could see it in his face.
"Are you hungry today Yugi-chan?" She said. Yugi shook his head. Her face saddened. She felt so bad for him.
"Yugi-chan we have contacted your grandfather. He will be on a plane soon, and he should be here tomorrow afternoon." Kina said. Yugi looked up with a hopeful smile. Kina smiled.
"If you would like you can come out and watch TV. Only if you think you are up to it though. I'll be in the living room if you need anything, anything at all just ask." Kina said. Yugi nodded.
Yugi didn't feel up to leaving the room, and not just because he was depressed. He wasn't used to being able to roam freely around a house. It was new to him and he didn't feel comfortable leaving the comfort of the room even to use the bathroom.
***
It was the next day and Yugi heard a knock at the door. He perked up a little trying to listen to see who it was. He got up from the bed which he hadn't left in nearly fifteen hours. He stood by the door and cracked it open to hear as Kina opened the door. He listened hearing a very familiar voice.
"Nice to meet you Kina-san." He heard. Yugi pushed the door opened and made his way to the end of the hallway. He peeked around the corner to see what he had hoped for since yesterday. Sugoroku stood in the doorway as Kina let him in.
"Very glad to meet you. I'm so sorry about your daughter's unfortunate death." Kina said. Sugoroku nodded.
"Thank you for all your help in taking care of my grandson, tell me how is he?" Sugoroku said taking off his hat.
"He seems to be severely traumatized by everything that has happened to him. I would go so far as to say he was abused quite regularly. He refuses to leave the room I set up for him. I think he is afraid to for more then one reason. He was also admitted to the hospital for four days, for malnutrition. Has anyone informed you of this?" Kina said
"No, I regret to say that I know very little of what has happened and I feel somewhat responsible for letting something like this go on with out my knowledge. Now where is my grandson?" Sugoroku said. Yugi stepped out from the corner to go greet his Jichan now.
"This way, I'm sure it will do him good to see someone familiar.." She stopped when she turned seeing Yugi had come out on his own.
"Yugi-chan?" She said seeing his cautious expression. It was if he was afraid he was doing something wrong.
"Yugi!" Sugoroku said looking at Yugi who meekly stepped forward. Yugi wouldn't make eye contact with either of them but he slowly came closer to his Jichan.
"Jichan?" He said. Soon his eyes filled with tears. He was slightly shaking but he tried his best to stay calm.
"Yugi, my boy." Sugoroku said stepping forward. He only wanted to hold the obviously scared child in front of him.
"I missed you Jichan!" Yugi finally let out his tears. Sugoroku put his arms around Yugi holding him. Yugi shook more unfamiliar with the love he was getting. The only one he trusted so far was Yami.
"Don't be afraid Yugi. Lets get you home." Sugoroku said. Yugi nodded and pulled away feeling uncomfortable in this new situation.
***
Sugoroku turned the key opening the door to the place they would be living. It didn't look like a normal house. The front of it was a shop. There were glass cases for carrying merchandise. Yugi looked around carefully at everything.
"Do you like it? I always knew that when I came back from Egypt I would open a store and sell all kinds of fun things." Sugoroku said. Yugi was quiet.
"Why don't I show you your room." Sugoroku said knowing Yugi was too nervous to talk to him very much. Yugi followed his Jichan up stairs to the main part or the house where there was a room waiting for him.
"This is your room. Make your self at home. I will be back to check on you in a little while." Sugoroku said then he left the room. Yugi looked around the room a bit. It was nice. It had a sky window and a nice sized bed. Yugi sat his back pack which contained everything he had left. He unpacked it and put it away then he sat down on the bed. Yami appeared next to him.
"Your grandfather seems like a good man." Yami said standing next to the window. Yugi was quiet.
"I know you are nervous, but I'm sure you don't have to be worried here." Yami said.
"Un....I'm just not used to anything around here. I will be okay though." Yugi said.
Soon there came a knock at the door. Yami looked up and quickly returned to the puzzle. Yugi shifted uneasy in his spot on the bed.
"Come in." He said a little afraid. Sugoroku opened the door slowly.
"I made some supper for you. Come out and eat." Sugoroku said smiling.
Yugi looked at him a bit puzzled then he reluctantly got up to leave the room. Sugoroku noticed how jumpy Yugi became when he left the room so he was careful not to speak to loud so he wouldn't scare the fearful boy. Yugi sat down at the table not really knowing what to do. Sugoroku set out a few plates of food.
"Help your self! Don't be shy." Sugoroku said going to get something to drink.
Yugi looked at the food then back up at Sugoroku who still had a smile on his face. Yugi began to think he didn't need to be so afraid. He dug into the food serving him self a plate. Sugoroku sat down and began to eat also. He watched as Yugi ate. The boy sure could eat. Yugi finished his first plate then went for a second. Sugoroku smiled. He knew it would take a while for Yugi to feel safe and it would be hard for him to deal with whatever memories he had locked inside, but Sugoroku would do anything he could to help.
To be continued...
Title "Ikite kita noni" means "Even though I kept going".....The song Yami sang is "Hikari" by Utada Hikaru. Its not the same as "Simple and Clean" even though it has the same beat and melody. "Simple and Clean" does "Hikari" no justice at all. Anyway it is the perfect song I think for Yami and Yugi. I suppose you want the English lyrics to it so here you go. Oh yeah I will post the entire song both in Japanese and English at the very end of the last chapter when ever I finish this fic, along with all the other songs I use
***
No matter what the time
I`m just alone
Destiny forgotten,
Even though I kept going.
Inside of the sudden light I awaken
In the middle of the night
***
Quietly, stand in the exit way,
And, in the pitch-black, take the light
And about the recent promises,
Is it just that I`m so anxious?
A wish that`s wanting to be said, but shall be repressed
I`ll introduce my family,
You`ll surely get along well
***
No matter what the time
We'll always be together
No matter what the time
Because you`re by my side
The light known as "you" finds me,
In the middle of the night
