Only one more chapter to go! Hope you are as excited as I am! XD Sorry but I wrote out the ending and it was too long so I split it up into two chapters (27 and 28) I didn't want to post it all at once but it was hard trying to find a spot to split it at. Well this chapter is HALF of the ending. (i.e. you will get some of the ending but not ALL of it) I will post the last chapter tomorrow (Dec. 16th) Don't forget there is an epilogue I MIGHT post you have to convince me if you review chapter 28 OKAY? I sat here for a long time trying to figure out what the ending should be and I chose the one I liked best I hope you like the last two chapters and if you don't like them then I'm sorry, but don't flame me you might hurt my feeling I'm sensitive you know! (sniffles) T.T Anyways, ENJOY!

Disclaimer: wow I only have to disclaim ONE MORE TIMEEEEE (cries)

Chapter Twenty Seven

Yugi pushed himself off the cold floor and steadied his still shaky body. He managed a smile to let everyone know he had decided on what should be done. He turned back to the stone tab and with much confidence looked up at the carvings one by one. He reached to his deck box and with out hesitation pulled Hane Kuribo from it. He smiled at the small fury monster who seemed to smile back at him. Yugi nodded then held up the card.

"…and finally Hane Kuribo!" Yugi said holding the card to firmly face the stone.

Nothing seemed to happen at first. Everyone waited for the tablet's response but just before they began to doubt, Hane Kuribo popped right off the card and started to flutter its way up to his rightful spot on the carving. Just before he reached his destination he turned and gave a playful wink at everyone then he pressed into the carving burning his image into the stone. There didn't seem to be an effect but then the ground started to rumble. It wasn't dangerous but alarming. Soon each block lit up one by one. As the last block lit the whole room flashed brightly. Everyone covered their eyes as to not become blind. Soon the light faded and before them the tablet was still glowing brightly. Yugi lowered his arms and blinked at the carving as it seemed to glitter.

"Take it upon thy self to make your dearest wish and I shall grant it." A voice softly echoed. Yugi hesitated at first not knowing what exactly to do first. Finally he stood firm in his spot and summed up the courage to speak.

"I believed once that I wanted to see him again even if it was for a short while…" Yugi paused looking back at everyone. By the look in his eyes he was trying to make them understand. "..however I realize that if I received that wish it wouldn't make me happy. I would continue to wish for that same thing time and time again. It would never satisfy me…" Yugi looked back to the tablet.

"That used to be my dearest wish, but now I've found a new wish that I would give anything in the world to have…"

Yugi tried to be happy. He tried to smile. Maybe this wish wouldn't give him what he wanted but it was the best wish he could think of.

"All I wish for…" Yugi pictured Yami's face. How sweet it would have been to see him once more, but it wasn't right. It wasn't his dearest wish. "….is for the spirits of the millennium puzzle and the ring to be truly and genuinely happy, no matter what needs to be done to accomplish this. I just want their happiness. That's all I wish for. That is my dearest wish." Yugi said.

Ryou smiled. The wish was honest and true. He couldn't have asked for anything more then what Yugi had put into words. This is what they should have wanted in the first place. Although he wouldn't get the one thing he wanted back he would however know for sure of his happiness. Nothing could be more satisfying then knowing they would be happy.
