Whooooo!! Yay! Another update! Sorry it took a little longer this time…
Kings Are Blind
Yami watched, still in slight shock, as Yugi pulled random objects out of his closet and toss them onto the floor.
"Okay, seriously," Yami started "Why are we doing this?"
Yugi ignored him and placed a hand on his chin. "You don't have a suitcase, do you?"
Yami's face turned angered upon his unanswered question. "A what? Yugi this is ridiculous! I can't just leave!"
Yugi continued to ignore him and went on mumbling to himself.
"Oh, would you look at the mess you made!" Yami cried "My servants are going to be so angry!"
Yugi turned to him and smirked. "Why don't you try cleaning up after yourself?"
Yami turned defensive and folded his arms across his chest. "Excuse me," he said "I would love to help my servants…but…I'm just busy, that's all."
Yugi found a brown, tarnished sack in Yami's washroom and began stuffing clothes inside of it.
"We are so taking you shopping, Yami," he said "This fashion style is sad."
Yami turned to the side, away from Yugi. "You're not even listening to me! I don't want to leave, you hear? NO!"
Yugi stopped what he was doing and frowned at Yami. Yami cracked an eye open and turned to Yugi.
"What?" Yami said, noting Yugi's evil glare.
"You can't always do whatever you want, Yami." Yugi said, neatly folding a pair of satin pants before crudely shoving them in the bag.
"Hey!" Yami cried "Be careful with those! Those are real satin, you know! Very expensive…"
Yugi rolled his eyes "You're no better than a rich girl in a Gucci store…"
Yami uncrossed his arms and cocked his head slightly, narrowing his eyes. "Are you saying I'm…selfish?"
"…and annoying," Yugi answered.
"Well…well, I'm a king," Yami replied "That's kind of…my…you know, job."
"Your job?" Yugi said, tying a piece of string tightly around the top of the sack. "A job is something you do for a period of time, and get paid for it. This is your life."
Yami sighed. "Not a very fun life, mind you."
Yugi made an aggravated noise and frowned at Yami "Well, then you should be excited about coming to Domino with me!"
"Domino?" Yami said "I thought we were going to Japan?"
Yugi grumbled under his breath. He liked Yami better when he wasn't so…dumb.
"Domino is a city in Japan. That's where I live, with my grandpa." Yugi answered.
"Oh,"
Yugi tossed the sack at Yami, which whacked him in the face. He opened the door and motioned with his hand for Yami to come with him.
"Ow…" Yami said, rubbing his nose.

Grandpa was sitting in a chair, watching the monster truck network on the TV. He was getting worried about what was taking Yugi so long. He hoped nothing happened to him.
The door swung open, causing grandpa to turn around. His eyes widened in shock and surprise as he stared at the pharaoh standing nervously in the doorway.
Yugi gave his grandpa a hugged and smiled. "We need to get back home, gramps. Yami and I have some important stuff to take care of."
Grandpa glanced from Yugi to Yami. "He's coming with us?"
Yugi nodded, then winked. Whispering into his ear, "Pleeeease? It's really important…"
Grandpa smiled and patted his grandson on the back. "Of course," He whispered back.
Grandpa half-heartedly pulled out his wallet. "We'll need to buy him a ticket of course. Oh boy."

The three were sitting on a bench at the airport, waiting for their flight to be called. Yami, who was now wearing some of Yugi's clothes so he didn't look ridiculous, was rubbing his sweaty hands together as he fumbled through his apprehensiveness.
He leaned towards Yugi and whispered, "You know, Yugi…planes…crash on occasion, don't they?"
Yugi nudged him with his elbow. "Yami, it's okay. They only crash if there's something seriously wrong. Or, if they get taken over by terrorists…"
"TERRORISTS?!" Yami shouted, causing every single airport guard to look at him.
Yugi shushed him as he drooped down in his seat. "Shh!"
"Sorry,"
Suddenly, a lady's voice came over then intercom. "Flight 23 to Domino. Your plane is now boarding." She repeated herself a couple of times as the three stood off the bench and headed towards the gate.
"Yugi…Yugi!!" Yami half yelled, half whispered.
"What?!"
"What if I have to go to the bathroom?"
Yugi grabbed Yami by the hand and dragged him along. "The plane has a bathroom, Yami, jeez."
They then approached the security walk-through…thing. (A/N: Noooo idea what that thing's called…)
Grandpa and Yugi slowly headed through, while Yugi glanced back into Yami's terrified eyes.
Yami kneeled next to Yugi's ear. "What…is…that?!"
"It's for security purposes, Yami. It's okay." Yugi said, as he headed through no problem.
The man placed a hand on Yami's arm and pushed him through.
"Come along now, sir." He said politely.
Yami made very frightened, amusing, noises as he glued his arms down to his side and walked through in a penguin-style fashion.
Once he was out, he snatched his bag from one of the guards and scurried to catch up with Yugi and grandpa.

A flight attendant worked her way down the aisle, stopping on the Moto family.
She glanced at Yami, who was sitting between Grandpa and Yugi performing deep breathing exercises. She kneeled down to grandpa's ear.
"Is he alright?"
Grandpa nodded "This is his first time flying. Don't worry, he's always a little high maintenance.
Yami 'hmphed' under his breath. "I am most certainly not high maintenance."
Yugi and grandpa glanced at each other, smiling.
"Stop that!" Yami said "I am not!"
Yami sunk down his his seat and crossed his arms. "How am I supposed to get my daily massage now? Hmm?" he said, putting his face in Yugi's.
Yugi rolled his eyes. "Not high maintenance, huh?"
Yami glared at him "Shut up,"
After only 15 minutes, Yami began getting restless.
"What about my herbal tea? How can I get through my day without any herbal tea? My skin is going to break out! Pharaoh's don't get zits!"
10 minutes later, Yami was still moping.
"Oh my gosh, my butts hurts. Kings are not supposed to be uncomfortable. I'm so hungry right now. I could be at home eating my favorite grapes. Mmm…the color of red wine. Oh gosh, now I'm even more hungry. I'd give anything for a temple rub right now…"
Yugi tried to distract himself from Yami, plugging his ears and focusing out the window. But Yami's booming voice was too loud for even God to block out.
"Yami?" Yugi said.
"Yes?" Yami replied.
"Shut…up…okay?" Yugi said sternly.
Yami sunk down farther in his seat. "Pssh. Excuse me,"
Okay! There is it!
R&R! (And I do mean REPLY! Jeez, people.)
