Before I start the chapter I am apologizing in advance if you don't like the chapter. I didn't fall asleep till like 4 this morning so I am very tired. Also I don't own YUGIOH and those who disagree I'll throw the giant chocolate rabbit I got for Easter at.

Chapter 18

"The itsy bitsy spider crawled up the water spout

Down came the rain and washed the spider out

Out came the sun and pushed the clouds away"

Two figures stepped out of the trees. It was a man and a woman.

"And the itsy bitsy spider crawled up the spout again."

"Mom…………..Dad……." was all Yugi could manage

"Hello Yugi." His mother said, pulling out a knife. His father did the same, but he pulled out a whip instead. Yugi was shocked beyond words.

"I-its impossible. You aren't dead…….." his parents gave him a can you not see us standing here look.

"Well we are here. And we have you to thank." His father said scowling slightly.

"M-me?" Yugi asked.

"Yes you." His mother said." You insolent brat."

"Take that back!" Anna yelled from behind Yugi.

"Be quiet brat." His father said

"Yes you." His mother continued "the day we were arrested and you were taken by child services a few thugs attacked the car we were in. The police got shot and we rammed into a tree. We got out and started running but," his mother stopped and moved her sleeve, his father did the same with a piece of hair covering his face. Yugi gasped.

"One of the cops were alive. The bastard had really good aim." She said indicating the hole in her arm and the hole in her husbands head.

"And what do you want with Yugi?" Shaki asked. His father and mother smirked.

"You wouldn't believe our luck." His father said "after being sentenced to Hell for seven hundred years we were stuck working."

"But only eleven years after our luck changed." His mother said. " A man who called himself Pegasus made us a deal." Yugi's heart skipped a beat. " He said that if we could kill you he'd get us out early! Can you believe it?" she asked. Yugi just stood there frozen, terrified of what would happen to them.

"Now then," his mother said, running her hand over the knife blade. "It's time we held up our end of the deal." She ran at Yugi. He closed his eyes. He heard a scream, but nothing hit him. He cracked his eyes open.

"Bakura!" Bakura was standing in front of him, knife going through his stomach. His mother scowled.

"Who the hell are you?" she snapped, pushing the knife harder into his stomach. Bakura winced and coughed up blood. She smirked and turned the knife slowly, and started pulling it out. Bakura coughed up more blood.

"It doesn't matter who I am," he managed, looking back at Yugi." But I will never let you harm him." His mother smirked and pulled the knife out. His father came up and threw Bakura into a tree.

"Bakura!" Yugi shouted as he ran over to the spirits side. Bakura was bleeding badly. He looked up at Yugi.

"I was wrong." He said and started coughing. "You aren't a spoiled brat. You were just sticking up for what you thought was right." He smiled weakly. Yugi took his hand.

"And you aren't paranoid. You were just thinking of what was best." Bakura smirked slightly and coughed. Bakura was slowly disappearing.

"Tell Yami and Marik I'm sorry." He said. He faded until he was a bright white, he burst into little orbs and floated up.

"Bakura….." Yugi said, tears coming down his cheeks.

"Hey brat." He heard the man behind him call. Yugi turned his eyes towards the man. The man flinched slightly. Yugi's eyes weren't the timid, light amethyst he remembered. Instead they were a dark shade of purple, nearly black and were radiating pure hatred. Yugi stood up and turned to the two girls behind him.

"Go tell Yami and Marik what happened." He said.

"But Yugi-

"Go!" he shouted. The girls nodded hesitantly and ran into the forest. He turned to face the pair in front of him.

"You monsters." He hissed "Killing someone innocent to get what you want? You sicken me." He nearly spat his last few words. His father had heard enough.

"How dare you talk to us like that. I'm gonna kill you here and now!" his father came towards him swinging the whip. Yugi dodged him easily. Out of the corner of his eye he saw his mother coming towards him. He stepped out of the way before she struck. He narrowed his eyes at the two.

"People like you don't deserve to live." He said. The stunned couple didn't notice the shadows around them starting to move. Yugi took one step and disappeared. He reappeared again many feet away from his previous spot. He continued doing this until he was moving so fast it looked like there were hundreds of him moving around the stunned pair.

"I'm sick of this." His mother growled and thrust her knife at one of the Yugi's. Yugi dodged and reappeared behind her.

"Nice try." He said as a stream of shadows went through his mother. She screamed and fell to the ground. His father turned to see what happened and was hit by an unseen force. He too fell to the ground. Yugi glared down at the pair.

"You should've stayed in Hell where you belong." He said as shadows covered the two. The only thing heard from anywhere were their unconscious screams of pain. Yugi smirked, but he began to sway and was soon consumed by darkness.

"Yugi. Yugi wake up!" Yugi opened his eyes and saw four figures standing around him. It took a few more seconds until they came into focus.

"Are you okay Yugi?" Yami asked. Yugi blinked as he remembered the past events, including what had happened to his parents. He nodded slightly. Yami smiled.

"That's good." He said, but his face fell slightly and Yugi knew the reason.

"I'm sorry." He said. Yami blinked.

"For what?" He asked

"If I hadn't left then when they came all three of you would've been there. Then maybe Bakura wouldn't be….." Yami looked down

"Don't blame yourself. You couldn't have known this would happen."

"But-"

"Stop blaming yourself! It's bugging the hell out of me." Marik said. Everyone laughed, well almost everyone.

"Yugi is something wrong?" Yami asked. Yugi hesitated slightly.

"Yami….something happened while it was just me and my parents," he said "it was like it wasn't me."

End Chapter

And so ends this chapter. Also before you hit the review button I have one thing to say. Bakura will come back. Those of you wondering why I told you. Think, how many of you were going to hit the review button and say "How could you kill off Bakura! You're so mean!" okay you probably weren't thinking that but you know what I mean and I seriously didn't feel like reading those kind of reviews because I would've told you anyways. Also for that touching moment between Yugi and Bakura, Bakura had been thinking while he was walking to check on Yugi and Yugi didn't mean to call Bakura paranoid in the first place. And those wondering how I came up with the fight scene, lets just say I watch too much Naruto.

So with that said all I ask is that you review.
