OK people its time for chapter two. Hopefully I do better on this one than the last chapter.
Yami, a spirit from The Beyond, was walking towards the Poisoned Love coffee shop on Gravestone Avenue. He was the leader of a top secret organization that protected humans with The Gift (1) from Seto Kaiba, the evil ruler of The Beyond(2). Earlier that day Bakura, Another member of the organization, thought he found a human who would be in danger of Kaiba attacking. He had said they should discuss it in private.
Earlier that day…………
Yugi woke to the smell of potato chips and what smelled like stale Dr.Pepper. He tried to sit up but something was holding him down. He used most of his strength to prop himself onto his elbows only to see the thing holding him down was Anzu, who looked like she had fallen asleep watching him. From what he could see he was in a hospital room. Had Jounochi brought him here after he fainted at school? Deciding to figure out later he continued looking at the room he was in. Ryou was huddled up in a chair holding his knees sleeping, Grandpa was lying on the small sofa also asleep, and Honda and Jounochi were asleep on the floor, Jounochi throwing his leg up saying something about doughnuts. Yugi couldn't help but chuckle. Then something caught his attention, a black shadow was moving closer to him. Yugi wanted to run but the IV in his arm stopped him from going anywhere. Yugi was stuck as some unearthly creature came toward him but he noticed something, as the form got closer he was able to make a few things out about the figure. One, it wasn't a shadow. Whoever it was had a black cape on or something. Yugi also noticed he had white unbrushed hair sort of like……."Ryou?" he asked
Bakura stopped at the question. Could this kid see him? Did he know that Bakura was dead? He didn't know but he intended to find out. He continued walking or floating really to the side of the boy's bed. "Can you see me?" the boy started to say something but Bakura glared at him before he could. He sighed,"If you can see me nod your head." 'I cant believe Im asking some kid if he can see him. Its totally possible this kid was just asking one of the people sleeping-' Bakura's train of thought was interrupted by a slight movement. The boy was nodding his head! 'Yami is going to love me for this.' He thought to himself as he left the room leaving the boy to ponder on what had happened.
Yugi stared at the figure as he left the room. 'What just happened?' he couldn't answer the question, he hadn't noticed before but the pain that had put him here in the first place was coming back. He layed down clutching his stomach squeezing his eyes closed in pain. He felt he was getting lighter the worse the pain got and let himself be taken into unconsciousness.
As Yami waited at a window seat stirring his cinnamon capicheno, he wondered if Bakura actually found a human with The Gift or was just trying to get his hopes up. After twenty minutes or so the white headed specter floated in and took a seat across from Yami "Ahh you waited for me." He teased. "Look" Yami stated obviously annoyed "Unless you have something I'll be leaving" Bakura smiled "Always on business as usual." He sighed "Fine, it was a small boy. He was at Hanasaki Hospital. From what I read in the Undead Library this kids name is Yugi Mouto. He lives on 42nd street in a small game shop," He stopped letting his friend absorb the information and snickered "You should really take a look at this kids life," he said "It makes yours look like a cakewalk." With that Bakura left leaving Yami to his thoughts. Before he left he said something that made Yami's skin crawl "You know he almost a perfect miniature of you. Well other than his amethyst eyes." After seeing his friends reaction he left, a small smile on his face.
-What did you say boy?- Yugi a mere four year old was no match for his fathers alchol induced actions, as for his mother she stood above him a sick smile on her face. Before Yugi realized his father had picken him up by the collar of his shirt and thrown him slamming into the wall on the other side of the room,causing the plates to fall and shatter to bits on the floor. He tried to get up but his mother put her foot on his back and started pushing it down slowly.Yugi couldnt help it he shrieked in pain. Unlike his fther his mother was perfectly sober and was doing this out of sick pleasure. After what seemed like an eternity she lifted her foot from his back and got just low enough so Yugi could hear her "No one will ever love you.You are a useless waste of a life."she hissed and left leaving Yugi to his father
Yugi woke his hearts racing. Trying to calm himself down he saw a figure in the corner watching him. He stared realizing the figure looked a lot like him. Their faces nearly matched accept for the figures nose was pointed. The same with his eyes which were slanted in a straight line at the top, along with that his eyes were red, almost crimson. And his hair was the same as Yugi's , same blond base followed by black with red at the edges. The only difference was his had blond streaks going through the black, almost like lightning. Without even realizing it Yugi smiled and said "Hello."
Stunned Yami nodded his head as a hello and walked toward an extremely confused boy. Yami made his question simple "Nod yes if you can see me." Yami waited letting his words sink in as the boy slowly nodded his head. Yami smiled and with a final nod said "Do not fear us." And left.
Extremely confused he watched the figure leave. Minutes after Jounochi came in and saw he was awake. "Hey your finally up, you were starting to worry us." Yugi smiled an apology and asked him something "Hey Jounochi, did someone who looked like me leave a few minutes ago?" Jounochi looked confused "no Yug' no ones come in or out of this room but doctors and none of them looked like you, why?" Yugi confused said "No reason, maybe I was just seeing things." Jounochi smiled and left to tell everyone he was awake. 'no…'Yugi thought 'he couldn't have been real my imaginations just acting up'
He looked where the figure had been standing 'Right?'
