We'll Need A Miracle.

Joey sat on the bed by his sleeping friend. What right had Yami to do this to someone as innocent as Yugi? When Joey and Seto had had to change his clothes for something more suitable for bed the two lovers had been disturbed and shocked.

FLASHBACK

"Joey, can you please try and get him changed while I go and inform the staff. If he were awake I think that Yugi would be more comfortable with you seeing him naked then me." The CEO stalked out of the room before the blonde could say anything.

"Come on then Yug', I guess a guys gotta do what a guys gotta do." he muttered as he lifted the small boy's shirt off him.

"Oh my Ra, SETO!"

The sound of pounding, racing footsteps echoed through the halls of the Kaiba mansion. In a matter of seconds the brunette stepped through the doorway into the guestroom.

"What is it pup, I thought someone had died." He joked to himself but stopped when he saw the look on the blonde's face.

"Pup, what is it?" The mentioned teen just pointed to Yugi's now bare chest.

It was a horrific sight. He was stick thin, all of his ribs were visible under the millions of bruises and cuts, some were faded, and some looked as new as yesterday or this morning. He had always been pale, but this was ridiculous, he was white.

"What the hell happened?"

Joey sat staring at his buddy not noticing that Seto was waiting impatiently for an answer. "Wheeler!" Joey yelped in shock, normally Seto would have picked on him for that but there was no time.

"What the hell happened to him?"

"I dunno, I got a theory though. I think the bullies came back, Ushio probably." The puppy sat staring at Yugi once more with tears dripping down his face.

"Pup, you need to get him dressed, while I call the mansion doctor, can you do that?"

Joey nodded dumbly, Seto kissed him on the forehead and strode off down the corridor.

END FLASHBACK

The doctor had taken a look at Yugi and pronounced it as anorexia, the bruises didn't look too bad and the cuts had stopped bleeding, but that he would need to be kept an eye on, and Joey intended to make sure that he did.

Seto still hadn't returned from whatever he had done after calling the mansion doctor, but Joey hoped that he wasn't gonna do anything stupid, like talk to Yami.

Gods, that arsehole, he still couldn't believe it, the supposedly attentive and caring pharaoh had turned his back on his Hikari. How could he do that after all Yugi had done for him? Yet again Joey was stopped in his mental rant by a groan coming from the bed.

"Yami, I'm……I'm sorry, please forgive me." Joey rolled his friend onto his back so that he could check his vitals.

"Fuck!" Joey leapt from the bed and ran out of the door to find someone, anyone who could help his friend.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Seto sat in the back of his limo with his laptop on his knee. He gave up trying to concentrate on his work and his mind floated back to the shrimp. By now he had known for a while that Yugi wasn't technically the king of games, Yami was. Seto had made amends with the boy, he had nothing against him. They weren't good friends the way Joey was with him, but they could trust each other.

The pharaoh however was a different matter. Yami was an old enemy from five thousand years ago, and that wasn't going to change because he was friends with the arrogant bastard's hikari. Seto was however astounded, even though he hated Yami, the CEO didn't understand the sudden change in personality. It was a pretty big change, to go from protecting someone with your own life to virtually destroying them mentally and allowing others to destroy them physically.

There was no way in hell he was going to be able to concentrate on this meeting. To hell with the bloody meeting, he controlled the board member's jobs, if they weren't happy they could kiss his ass.

"Driver, turn around, take me to the Moto game shop and wait for me outside."

----------------------------------------------------------------

"Damn!" Yami shouted as he threw the empty beer bottle at the wall.

He paced the living room careful to ignore the bags filled with white powder on the table, he couldn't have any, not now. It was this stupid drug's fault that he had ignored Yugi, he couldn't even remember the last few months properly.

"Ah! Look at the almighty pharaoh now, drinking himself unconscious and sniffing anything he can get his hands on." The teenage boy slid to the floor, his head was spinning, he needed a glass of water, and an aspirin. Actually he needed the heroin that was sitting temptingly on the table in front of him.

But he couldn't. That was the stuff that had hurt his aibou. If it were a person and were the room not spinning he would've sent it to the shadow realm.

Then he remembered what the guy who had given him the drugs had said.

FLASHBACK

Yami stood in the ally waiting for the guy. He was very uncomfortable, the only reason he was even tempted to do this was because some of his gang done it. They were fine, so he a five thousand year old pharaoh should be able to handle it.

The teenager was knocked from his thoughts when a man strode into the ally with a large back pack. "You here for the delivery" His voice was hard and scratched. Yami nodded

"You got the money?" The teen took out the money he needed and handed it to the man.

The man thrust the bag at Yami and whispered one hint of advice before running off further down the ally.

"Don't drink with alcohol or you'll be sorry, or you might not be able to be."

END FLASHBACK

Yami realised with a jolt that he'd had a sniff of the powder and downed it with three bottles of beer, two of the empty bottles were next to him on the floor. This was it, he was going to die and he'sd never get to explain himself to his light, his love, his aibou.

He was starting to feel drowsy, but it was not a sedated drowsy, more like if you were drowning and slowly losing consciousness painfully.

A knock at the door, well more of a hammer actually brought Yami back enough to focus a little.

"Yami, Yami you baka pharaoh let me in I know you're in there!" The voice behind the door registered as Kaiba's. He might get through this. The drowning feeling was overtaking him again so he did the only thing he could think of. He kicked the glass bottle nearest his foot.
Then he blacked out.

----------------------------------------------------------------

He heard the crash coming from inside the apartment. Stepping back Seto kicked the door in and ran inside.

His cerulean eyes scanned the room quickly. It was a mess, there were empty beer bottles everywhere and there was a suspicious looking white powder in a bag on the table. It had already been opened and judging by the fact that he could smell alcohol in the air someone had taken the drug and alcohol at the same time. Bad move.

He turned around to find an unconscious Yami on the ground next to the beer bottle he had heard break.

Seto dialled the emergency services and called for an ambulance.

The CEO looked down at the pharaoh who lay in a crumpled heap on the floor. "You really are a baka pharaoh, you know that. You would have broken that boy's heart even more than you already have, your lucky it's me here and not Joey!"

He stepped away from the unconscious pharaoh, pulled out his cell phone. "Someone get my puppy, now!"

This was going to be hard to explain. We'll need a miracle he thought.
