Jonouchi's POV
Jonouchi sighed, crossing his arms as he glared angrily down at the bed.
'Man I've been stuck here for two weeks. Most of my wounds have healed now! And where the hell are Anzu and Honda? They're supposed to be updating me on Yugi!'
The room was pitch black, the only light coming from underneath the door. It was night time but Jonouchi was wide awake. Finally he had enough.
'If they won't tell me how Yugi is I'll do it myself!' The infuriated blond threw off the sheet covers, and jumped off the bed, sending shivers down his spine as the floor was unnecessarily cold.
Jonouchi grabbed his jacket that was hung on a chair and threw it on over his hospital gown. Then he proceeded to tiptoe over to the door, pausing whenever the floor creaked. Opening the door, Jonouchi peeked out into the hallway. No one was there. Nodding to himself, Jonouchi quietly left his room and crept down the hallway.
Reaching Yugi's room, he slowly opened the door, stiffening when he saw a certain white haired individual shaking Yugi's unconscious body.
Forgetting that he was supposed to be quiet, Jonouchi leaped forwards, grabbing the person's arm. "Bakura!" he hissed.
Bakura immediately went limp, shocking Jonouchi and causing him to let go. Bakura plastered himself to the floor throwing out every kind of apology.
Jonouchi blinked down and the quivering boy on the floor, coming to conclusion that this was indeed not the evil spirit that had almost killed him, but the quiet nervous boy they had talked to in the cafe. He knelt down, putting a hand on Bakura's shoulder. "Hey, it's okay. I just thought you were that other punk."
Bakura glanced up, then shuffled himself into a sitting position. "Alright..." he mumbled.
Jonouchi glanced over to where Yugi lay, unresponsive. Getting up, he walked over to the side of the bed, peering at his friend's face. Yugi was sweating, and his eyes were scrunched up. Bakura got to his feet. "Yugi fell unconscious when I told Yami about his past."
Jonouchi turned his head, staring at Bakura. "Are you sure that's all you did? Yugi seems pretty out of it!"
Bakura trembled. "That's all I did I swear! Yami spoke of seeing too much blood and passed out! Then after that Yugi fell unconscious!" He wrung his hands, fear evident in his voice.
Jonouchi turned back to Yugi, patting his cheek. No response. Sighing, Jonouchi sat on the edge of the bed, focusing all his attention on Bakura. "What exactly did you tell him?" Bakura hesitated.
Jonouchi crossed his arms. "Bakura. You need to tell me." He pressured.
Bakura gulped and nodded. "Well, after I found out the evil spirit was gone I rushed here! I told Yami he was a Pharaoh and that my dark side had a grudge against him! Then...well you know the rest."
Jonouchi thought long and hard about the information he had just received. "And you're telling the truth?"
"Yes!" was the immediate response. Jonouchi closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. "Oh Yugi, what has your Jichan gotten you into?" Bakura stared with fear at the blond. "Jonouchi?"
The lanky teen on Yugi's bed stood up. He grabbed Bakura's arm, and dragged him towards the door. "Come on Bakura, we're getting to the bottom of this!" Bakura stumbled, letting Jonouchi drag him. "Where are we going?"
Jonouchi replied without turning back. "To find Sugouroku. Yugi's Jichan will have to know more about this.
And if I know that man, which I don't really...but if I were him...I'd be visiting that museum that recently popped up. The question is...why hasn't he come back yet?"
Bakura wondered the same thing as he was dragged out the door, leaving an unconscious Yugi to suffer alone with whatever had him trapped in an unbreakable spell.
