Amethyst Silence ON HIATUS

by Rasenramen

Yugi is a tall shy boy who never talked. He could only talk through his paintings, his way of showing people why he did in his life. Until one day a strange puzzle and spirit entered his life, managing to coax Yugi to speak. Why has this happened? Why now? Yugi wonders if there's more he can do with his life besides painting. (More about the past then painting at this point.)

Yami's POV

Yami struggled to resit the strange sensation of being dragged away from Yugi's body but to no avail. Colours, sounds, shapes...all passed by within an instant.

Dry stifling heat blasted over him, and light shone in his eyes.

In an instant it all stopped. Yami landed, rather roughly, on dry well worn ground. Getting up, he rubbed his back and gasped. No longer was he in the hospital with Yugi. Now a dry but lively bustling city lay before him.

Merchants called to one another as kids pickpocketed adults. Dogs ran in the streets and cats laid where they pleased.

Yami tried reaching out to Yugi but there was no response. Hugging himself, he started walking aimlessly, confused. People stopped and pointed at him, whispering among themselves.

A chime rang through the air as the sounds of hooves thumping on ground rung in Yami's ears. Everybody gasped and withdrew into their shops and homes, closing their doors. Yami blinked, as a chestnut brown stallion thundered towards him.

He leaped back, startled as the horse reared and whinnied loudly. A tall man wearing a white dress with a blue cloak jumped off the horse and approached him.

His startling blue eyes scrutinized Yami closely. In his hand was a golden rod with two rounded blades on the side The eye of Wadjat was in the middle, cold and calculating. Yami drew himself up, refusing to be intimidated.

The man grabbed Yami's puzzle and turned it over in his hands. Yami was about to snarl something, then thought better of it. The man seemed to be in a high position and Yami didn't want to get thrown in jail.

There was something strangely infuriating about the man.

'Why do I feel like I should know this person...' Yami mused to himself.

Eventually the man let go of the puzzle and grabbed Yami's arm. "Hey! Watch it!" Yami growled. The man ignored him and threw him onto the horse.

Yami was about to get off but the man glared at him. "You will stay were you are imposter!" Yami blinked. 'Imposter? What does he mean?' The man got on the horse and flicked the reins. The horse whinnied and galloped off, leaving a trail of dust and a thought behind.

'Where's Yugi? And where am I going?'
