Hey Guys! Sorry for the late post, have had a busy life and I know this chapter is short but I'll try my best to make sure that I'll post more regularly! Just been busy with school, social, health life at the moment but I hope you enjoy this chapter ^_^
CHAPTER 4
The kidnappers stopped outside of the mysterious boss's hideout when Yugi properly regained his consciousness from being whacked in the head. Yugi could feel himself being pulled out and was being carried bridal style inside the hideout. He was beginning to freak out as he has been tied up, gagged and blindfolded and without knowing where he was, he started to squirm in his carrier's grasp.
"Settle down otherwise I'll get Bear to hit you across the head again!" Wolf hushed loudly in Yugi's ear. Yugi started to calm himself down a bit but was still on edge as he hasn't met their boss and is worried that whoever it was might be worse than the four he's already met.
YUGI'S POV
Where am I? Wait, am I at The Three Pyramids of Egypt like they said? I hope my friends come to help me soon, I'm scared for what they might do to me and I just wish Atem was here. WAIT! What am I thinking Atem has waited 5000 years to find out his past and to move on and I did tell him not to stay just because of me. Besides, if he does stay and if they bring the millennium items to whoever is seeking them, then, that could cause the world to fall into the hands into some nut job. Ugh! My head aches from that whack I got to the head, idiot smacked me when I was still talking to Atem. OH NO! I wonder if he saw what I mouthed to him great so if he did stay then I would have to live my whole life with him knowing that.
Now, if I only just hold out until I find a way out of here, everyone wins, I'll be back with my friends and whoever this guy is who wants the millennium items won't have them.
"Why you holding him like that Wolf?" Eagle asked.
"Cause, if the boss sees me carrying him like this he'll think we wouldn't have hurt him which means we won't get hurt, got it?"
"Got it, smart thinking, I remembered the last guy who disappointed the boss. He's still missing right?"
"Yeah, for six months now," Knight joined in the conversation. Yugi gulped.
"Don't worry Yugi as long as you don't try to escape you'll be fine," Bear said chuckling in front of everyone else. Yugi heard the sound of a doorknob turning and figured that they were now inside. Before he knew it, Yugi was plonked onto something soft which he thought to be a couch. He could hear the four men's footsteps move to the side.
"Boss should be here any minute" Yugi heard one of the guys say. Yugi was attempting to loosen his bounds but he suddenly heard an all too familiar voice.
"SCHMOOFY!" Yugi could hear a high pitched female's voice running towards him then was suddenly hit with a force with arms wrapping around his neck. Yugi had an idea who it would be but didn't want to believe it, there was just no way it could be her. Whoever this girl was, she was holding on to Yugi fairly tight and was also sitting on his lap. "Schmoofy what happened to your head? Did you idiots hurt him?"
Yugi felt the weight on his lap jump off and could hear loud stomps stamping off to the side where he believed where his four kidnappers were.
"WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY SCHMOOFY! ANSWER ME!"
"It wasn't us I swear" Knight stuttered back
"He was like that when we grabbed him,"
"Really, are you sure?"
"Yes!" They all chimed together. Yugi couldn't believe what he was hearing and wanted to get away by the mysterious people but felt arms go around his neck and he stiffened immediately.
"Schmoofy-poo it's okay. I won't let those evil men hurt you," Yugi was tensed and could feel the female sit in his lap again and was NUZZLING ON HIS NECK! Yugi made a few muffled words as he was uncomfortable but heard another all too familiar voice which he also wished wasn't from a person he knew.
"Child! Behave yourself! Now get off him. And, why is there a bruise on his head, I told you idiots that I wanted him unharmed."
Yet again, the four henchmen chimed a It wasn't me answer to what Yugi believed to be their boss.
"Well, Yugi, hope you had a pleasant ride here. Wolf, remove his blindfold and gag at once!" the boss barked. Within mere seconds, Yugi could feel the tight bound across his face loosen. It took a few seconds for Yugi's eyes to focus. Once they were no longer blurry and he took in his surroundings. The sight that befell on Yugi nearly made him drop to the floor. The girl that has been sitting on Yugi was none other than Rebecca Hawkins and the man that recently walked in was her grandfather, Professor Hawkins.
"Professor Hawkins! Rebecca! You were the ones who kidnapped me? Why and why do you want to summon a creature known as Udjat and what is it?"
"Yugi, little Yugi. Yes, we were the ones who kidnapped you. To answer your question, Udjat is a creature of pure evil and if summoned correctly, it can grant its master's greatest desires and my greatest desire is to get revenge on the human race. Revenge for them ridiculing me for years, saying that I was a nut-job and now we'll see who the crazy one is. Also, in order for my plan to be fulfilled, I needed you to kick it off as you play an important role in it Yugi Muto."
"Why am I so important in your plan?"
"You see I wouldn't have been able to get the millennium items if I just showed up and took them, all of you would have stopped me but if I grabbed you, the others wouldn't think twice about saving you."
"Well you're wrong professor, I told them not to and the Pharaoh, I mean Atem would have gone to the spirit world!"
"You would think so wouldn't you," Bear asked with a hint of satisfaction in his voice.
"What do you mean?"
"The pharaoh ran out from the cave in hopes to catch up with us to save you."
Yugi couldn't reply to what he heard. Atem is now a mortal in the modern world and now Yugi might not want him to come now if he saw him mouth what he said to him.
"Take him into the prepared room! Yugi, by the way, this is the beginning because as soon as the Pharaoh and your friends get here, Atem was it, will regret ever bringing the millennium items here along with himself."
"What do you mean? What are you going to do to Atem?" Yugi is screaming at Professor Hawkins while being carried away down the hallway. "You won't get away with this! You hear me!"
All that could be heard was Yugi's screaming and the evil laugh escaping from Professor Hawkin's mouth.
BACK WITH THE OTHERS
(A/N: Sorry guys if I did like a whole duel, I thought it might get boring and I might start stuffing things up so I'll just skip to the end of the duel between Atem and Marik)
"Pharaoh, please! Think about what you are doing. Are you willing to risk the world's safety just for Yugi's safety which might mean he's only safe for a brief time?" Marik is begging Atem to reconsider his final blow. The Pharaoh's life points are untouched whereas Marik only has 200 life points left. The only monster that is on the field is Obelisk the Tormentor and we all know whose side that is on.
"Marik! I've already told you and everyone else that I would do almost anything to save Yugi! Also, I won't bring the world's doom! I'll save the world and also save Yugi! I can't let him suffer at the hands of evil, not again." Atem lowers his head saddened but can hear a faint voice. You won't get away with this! YUGI! Atem knew that it was Yugi that he heard and he seems to be alright but angered and scared at the same time. He tried to talk to him further but to no avail all he heard was silence.
Yugi, I will save you…
"OBELISK THE TORMENTOR! FINSIH MARIK'S LIFE POINTS OFF WITH FIST OF FURY!" Atem roared as he regained himself to where he is.
Marik's life points plummet down to zero and Atem starts to walk up the staircase with Tea, Joey, Tristan, Grandpa, Duke, Bakura, Seto and Mokuba following.
"Pharaoh, how are we going to get to the Three Pyramids of Egypt?" Tea asked.
"Kaiba, if it's alright, could you call for your jet to take us there please?"
"Ugh! Only if you promise me that Yugi will duel me when this is all over, so I can steal his title of King of Games since you're not it."
"Fine."
Yugi please be okay, just hold on until we get there.
