Chapter 18- Sadness and Spirits
The lonely dragon had exited his car as he came to the parking space of his new apartment. He had gone back to his dorm to get all his stuff right after Yugi had left and then traveled the 15 minute drive over to his summer 'home', you could say. Walking to the elevator, he pushed the button with the arrow pointing up and waited. In about 30 seconds there was a ding, signaling that the device was here. The doors opened and Atemu walked inside the elevator, dragging all of his bags and suitcase with him. Pushing the third floor button, the doors closed and he began going up. Leaning against the wall, Atemu crossed his arms, being quite impatient. Soon though, there was another ding and he was finally at his floor. Now dragging his stuff out of the elevator, he looked around at the numbers of the rooms. Glancing around, he finally found some leading to his. He turned left and slowly made his way down the large hallway.
"201…203…205…ah," he finally came to it. "207," he flipped out the keys that he had picked up from the place a couple days earlier and opened the door. Walking inside, he threw some stuff in the bedroom area and threw the other stuff in the living room/ dining room. Walking back to the door, he kicked it close and then turned to examine his new living area. Blinking, he treaded his way to the walk out balcony. Opening the blinds, he gave a small smile of happiness. From here, you could just barley see the ocean. Well, more of the palm trees lining the shore than the actual water, but, it was walking distance to get there, making Atemu feel more a peace. Opening the slide door, he walked out to be blasted by a wave of heat. Taking in a deep breath, he turned and made his way back inside, closing the door behind himself.
Walking over to couch (the apartment complex supplied furniture) he plopped down, laying his head back against the back of the furniture. Closing his eyes, he sighed once again and placed his arm over his face. Groaning, he fell to the side, his face laying over the armrest of the couch. Staring blankly at the black TV, he felt his eyes well up unknown tears. Atemu sighed once again, rubbing his face into the softness of the sofa, lone tears sliding down the left side of his face. He blinked, trying to keep the rest of them from falling, but failed. More salty droplets of water slide down his face. Atemu reached up, trying to brush them away but found he just couldn't stop crying. The dragon sat up, chocking out a sob. Rubbing his face into his left hand, the dragon finally stopped resisting the tears he needed to get out and just let himself go. All that could be seen was a lone 'man', sitting in a living room, crying out all his sadness and loss into his hand. Atemu allowed his elbows to fall to his knees, feeling the wetness as of salty water hit his legs and soaked through the material of his jeans. The dragon sat there, for what seemed an eternity of crying till he finally ran out of tears to cry. He still sat there, sniffling, though no more water poured from his red eyes.
Standing, he slowly trudged his way to his bedroom. Walking through the door, he closed it behind himself and walked to the bathroom to get a tissue. Wiping it over his eyes, he threw the piece of cloth away and then walked out the door and over to another walk out like place. Opening the shades, light flooded into the room. Black pupils narrowed as light struck them, his face scrunching up. The dragon then, smiled. A smile that finally brought his new place into a more content light. The being then turned and went on his way unpacking his clothes and other things. Finally getting settled.
/With Yugi, earlier\
The young teen had finally entered the plane and sat down in his window seat. Looking out the window, he tried to see if he maybe, just maybe, could find a window looking into the airport and see Atemu…maybe one more time. Alas, though, the young mage could not find such a window so he could not see his lover at all. He could still sense the dragon, but to be able to talk telepathically, there were already to far apart. Hope lingered in Yugi's heart while he waited for the plane to start moving and for them to pass by a window. It, of course, took quite awhile for the plane to start moving, but the teen's eyes never left the airport terminal building. Atemu had not left yet, and he could still sense it. But…it was growing faint. Atemu must have started to leave. But it was slow, oh so very slow. Yugi was concentrating so much on sensing his dragon lover that he barley noticed that the plane had started to move. The boy shook, startled, and turned to the front of the plane. He saw the seat belt light go one, and he placed his on. Turning, he introduced himself to the younger lady who was sitting next to him. She was in her mid 20's, had light brown hair with purple streaks running through them and it up in a high ponytail. Yugi smiled, placing the belt on.
'At least I can at least sit next to someone who isn't that bad looking,' he mentally chuckled, and suddenly felt amusement and sarcastic jealously filter through his mind from Atemu. Though it was weak, Yugi could still feel some emotions of the other. He gave out a laugh to him and then sent the emotion of love. The teen could picture his dragon rolling his eyes as he felt love for his other flow through him, sending back some oh so lovely sarcasm.
Yugi finally drew himself out of the link before he looked like a drooling zombie in front of his airplane acquaintance. Glancing out the window, he felt the plane start to move faster, things started to blur outside his window. The plane rolled out onto the takeoff runway, and then them began going faster and faster. Yugi reached into his backpack and drew out a piece of gum. Offering the woman one, she gladly took it and gave polite thanks. The boy then glanced out the window again and could finally feel them lift off the ground. As they began to make their accent up, the teen then looked out the window again. Suddenly the boy blinked. Had he…he just thought he saw…
Yugi then laughed. 'It was just my mind thinking it…' he muttered, reaching up and gently grasping the dragon that hung around his neck. Yugi had thought that he had saw Atemu. Flying next to the plane, his wings sweeping over the cool air, his soft black fur blowing in the wind and his gentle eyes gazing at him. But, alas, it was only a lover's hope…only a lover's hope.
------------------------
It had been a couple hours since the plane took off from L.A. and was getting closer to their destination of the New England coast. Yugi had started reading a book he brought along and was listening to his music on his iPod mini. The teen finally sighed, placing the book aside and gazing out the window in thought. He turned his iPod off and placed it back in his backpack. Turing to the window again, he reached up and fingered the necklace Atemu gave him.
"Hey," the woman next to him started. Yugi glanced over at her. "Where did you get that?" she asked. Yugi smiled.
"A friend of mine made it for me," he explained. The woman gazed at it with awe.
"It's a very pretty necklace, well carved. So…does this person make these often?" she asked. Yugi shook his head.
"No. I don't think you could find this in any store. I'm sorry," he told the woman. The lady sighed.
"Ah darn. And it's such a beautiful dragon necklace too," she muttered. Yugi smiled. Turning back to the window, he kept the smile over his face. The rest of the ride went on smoothly, and soon Yugi was able to see the eastern coast. He let out a happy smile. Though he was going to miss Atemu a lot, he was still slightly glad to be home (and to get off that plane). Finally, the seatbelt sign came on, signaling that they were coming closer to airport.
Yugi began placing his things back in his backpack and zipping it closed. Then he placed his belt on and waited. It took awhile till they started feeling the plane rumble a bit more, meaning it was coming into land. Yugi always liked landing better than taking off. When you take off, it's just so loud and really bumpy for a long time. When you land there's one jolt of the wheels touching the ground and then you just slide down the runway, and it isn't as noisy. Yugi sighed, closing his eyes and then placing his necklace under his shirt. He did not want his family to see it. Knowing them, they would be curious and then…gods, it would turn hell. Slowly, ever so slowly, the plane began to descend. Things tousled about and Yugi was very happy now that he decided to squish his violin tightly in the cabinets above. Suddenly, the runway came into view and soon they were right above it. The wheels touched the cement one, twice and finally a third time to fully catch on and stay on the ground. Bags could be heard falling over and the roaring of the engine could also be heard.
After about five to ten minutes, the plane began its way to the terminals. Slowly edging into its parking spot, the plane stopped and the passengers were allowed to stand. Yugi stood up, grabbing his backpack and throwing his jacket on. Slowly walking into the aisle, he reached up and brought his violin down gently from its spot above. Bringing it to his side the mage began his way following the crowd out of the plane. Walking out of the plane, he went through the scanners and got checked in and everything. Walking over to the baggage claims, Yugi stood and waited for his bags to come around. Glancing down at his watch, he sighed and began fingering the necklace again through his shirt.
"Damn, it's become a habit," he let out a small chuckle. Finally, he saw his duffle bags and suite case come into view. Moving so he was right next to the machine, Yugi took his two duffle bags off and then got his suite case. Placing the rolling suite case on the ground, he traveled back to where his violin sat and his backpack. Reaching down, he flung his bag over his shoulders, picked up his violin and then placed one duffle bag on one shoulder and the other and his right shoulder.
Walking out into the terminal area, he began going to where you check in. Walking up to the desk, he gave them his name and flight number, and made sure everything was all done. Walking out to where people who were not going on an airplane could be, Yugi sat down in one of the seats and glanced around the area. Someone was supposed to pick him up…but who? He teen glanced around, his violet eyes wary and noting all who where here and trying to sense another mage around. Finally, he picked up on someone. Standing, the mage began walking in that direction where he was sensing another. Suddenly, a woman came into view. Her back was turned to Yugi, but the boy recognized the dark brown hair. Running over to her, he gave a wave.
"Serena!" he bellowed. The woman suddenly turned, spotting her cousin.
"Ah, Yugi, there you are," she gave the other teen a hug. Moving away, she grabbed on of his duffle bags and his suite case.
"Common, lets get out of here," she chuckled lightly. Yugi smiled, his day getting a whole lot better. At least he was still free to say what he wanted to say for a while longer. The finally made it to the warm outside. Walking through the main areas, they entered the main parking garage. Serena lead him over to the D section of the garage and over to a nice, white Infiniti sedan. Clicking on the automatic unlock button, she opened the trunk and placed the luggage inside. Yugi placed his backpack in the back seats and put his violin in there too. Closing that door, he opened the passenger door and sat down, closing the door and putting his belt on. Sighing, he fell back against the leather seat and reached up to take his necklace out and play around with it through his fingers. Serena had started the car and was speeding out of the parking area.
"So," she glanced over and her eyes caught onto that of the necklace. "Oh…my what's that Yugi?" she asked in awe. Yugi chuckled.
"Atemu made it for me," he said with a smile. Serena blinked.
"He made it…you mean he carved it?" she inquired. Yugi nodded in response.
"Yup," he twirled it around more, "Kinda a go away present your could say…" Serena nodded in comprehension.
"I see…well, don't want Sugoroku seeing that now would we?" she chuckled lightly. Yugi nodded.
"Yeah…that's why I'm kinda glad you picked me up."
The woman laughed. "Ah, it's fine Yugi. Anyway, I thought you might have something," she smiled. "I mean you are going out. Why not give your other a gift. So, what did you give him?" she asked. Yugi rubbed his head in embarrassment.
"Um…well a bracelet. I did the traditional patterns of stuff…ya know…" he trailed off. Serena smiled more.
"Well…I suppose I don't have any news that'll make you as happy as you were," she paused. "Well your teacher has come back to the main house to teach you again." Yugi blinked, glancing over at her.
"My teacher…really? Why?" he asked. Serena shrugged.
"I don't know…he seems to want to teach you again…I think it's the work of Sugoroku though, in a way, he wants you to be stronger." Yugi nodded, glancing out the window in thought.
'So my teacher has come back…' Yugi sighed. 'Gods I wonder what he wants this time…'
/Later\
A white car finally fell onto a dirt road. The seen turned from city like to dense forests and small fields. The area was practically deserted, only a few houses standing about the road. Serena stayed on this road and it soon turned to that of a private road. Yugi had his head almost glued to the window.
'I forgot how beautiful it was here in the summer…' Yugi whispered in his mind, glancing at all the familiar trees and streams. Soon, the dirt turned to pavement again, meaning they were getting closer and closer to the main house. Yugi glance forward, being able to see a clearing up ahead.
The trees practically vanished, leavening wide, open fields. Suddenly, as soon as light reached their eyes, a house came into view. No, no not just a house. This house was a mansion! There were at least three floors or two to this gigantic place. The front of the house was occupied by trees and forest and the back could not be seen, for the house was atop a small hill, and all that could be seen was the house itself. Serena drove up the long driveway and found an area to park in front and turned the car off. Each person exited the car and Yugi foremost, ran up to the front of the mansion.
The doors were much taller than him and of course a lot wider. It would take at least three of his body lengths to cover one of the doors. Yugi gazed up at the ebony entrance, memories swirling in his mind. Of course, the Motou family did have money, so they lived here. This was the Motou main house, but not only did the people from the Motou family live here, but ones from all over the branches of the family resided here as well. Like Serena and her husband and Anakai came here to live in the summer, and some of the well old mages lived here, under the care of younger, nurse mages. Almost all year, this house will be fully filled. So, all in all, the reason why it was just so big was that so many people lived in it and everyone had the money to pay the shares of the house as well. Every year, everyone who had lived in that house, even if it was only a day, would have to pay a small sum of money to keep it going.
Yugi smiled, and suddenly ran around the house to the back. It did, in fact, take awhile to get around the whole thing, but finally Yugi could see it. The backyards was a long, grand field of pure grasses and then, down the hill in the distance were woods and a small creek that was quickly growing into a river last time the young mage was here. There were also many different training spots around the field. In fact, there was someone out here training right at this moment. Yugi frowned and squinted his eyes, trying to see who exactly it was. The teen suddenly blinked, his eyes widening.
"Teacher," he began walking forward more, and the walk turned to a slow jog. "Hey teacher! Sensei!" he bellowed out. The older man finally stopped what he was doing and looked up. Seeing the familiar tri-colored hair he gave a smile.
"Oy there Yugi," he gave a wave with his hand. The teen ran up to the other and finally stopped. Who stood in front of the teen was a elderly man, most likely in his mid to late 50s, his hair turning a light silvery white, as was his small, beard like goatee and tiny silvery black moustache. The man was around five foot nine or ten, so Yugi only leveled up to his shoulders or chest. The teacher also had grey, light eyes that showed a sense of happiness to see his former student, but also mischief of what he was going to put the little teen through.
Yugi also called him "sensei" because the man was, indeed, half Japanese. Ironically, just like Atemu. The older man is still indeed a mage, but from a different family. But, after his own family disowning him, Yugi's grandfather met him and offered to bring the man into Yugi's, Motou family. Most of the time when a man is disowned form his original family (clan) his powers are taken away. But when acknowledged into another family, their powers will return to normal and their energy restored. Yugi's teacher did just that, and once renounced into the Motou family, was soon back to normal.
The man's name was Akoii Teakishi. Akoii was one of the strongest mages in the Motou clan. He came into Yugi's life when he was just a young toddler, and began teaching him then. Throughout Yugi's life, Akoii was his teacher, and no one else. The man was so experienced, the young teen didn't need another. Akoii was also here when Yugi's father (Sugoroku's son) was around 15 or so. So, he taught even Yugi's father. But, when being addressed, the teacher hated being called Mr. Teakishi or Teakishi-san. He, actually, loathed it so much, that if you were his student, you either call him "teacher" or "sensei". As old friends, like Yugi's grandfather, the name Akoii was fine though. The man grinned and patted Yugi's head, tousling the teen's air.
"My, haven't you grown quite large in this past few years that I have not seen you," he chuckled. Yugi rolled his eyes and pushed the hand away.
Grinning now, the young mage gave the man a giant hug. "It's great to see you again too teacher. So," he pulled back. "Why have you come back to the main house?" Akoii chuckled, his voice deep and had a slight rasp to it.
"Ah, I just figured, why not come back to the ol' Motou home. Can't see why not, anyway," he shrugged. "I really don't have anywhere else to go." No one in the Motou family knew why Akoii got disowned. All they knew, was, that he did. If the topic were brought up about his past, Akoii would immediately change the subject. Yugi smiled.
"I know that's not your reason," he laughed. The teacher smiled.
"Ah, yes it is not," he leaned down. "I just think that you might need some reminding on your training, and maybe I can teach you something new this year," he gave a wink. "What do you think?" he asked. Yugi stared. To learn new spells and curses…he might be able to learn one that could help Atemu! If he trained hard enough with his sensei, then maybe he could teach himself a spell to stop Mizuka from taking over Atemu's body and mind! Yugi was almost in a frenzy of excitement, but kept it inside. Looking up at his teacher, he gave a warm smile.
"That would be great sensei!" he bellowed. "I do admit," he gave a hesitant chuckle, rubbing the back of his head, "That my magic skills have been fading as I was in school, this will help a lot!" Akoii gave a grin.
"Hoky then. Well," he turned to go back and practice himself. "You go get your stuff inside and settle back in and met me out here right before dinner so I can tell you what your goals will be for this summer and what new spells you might learn ok? Also and give you a couple lessons maybe today k'?" Yugi nodded in comprehension. Akoii grinned and pushed the boy back toward the main house. "Now off you go then," he chuckled. Yugi rolled his eyes, but went anyways.
/-Later that evening-\
Yugi was now heading out into the giant backyard, already have changed his cloths and ready to see what his teacher wanted him to do. The young violet-eyed teen wandered around for a bit trying to find his sensei, and finally saw the elder one sitting on a large root of a tree, waiting. The younger mage smiled and quickened his pace so Akoii didn't have to wait any longer. Treading up closer, Yugi finally stopped and plopped down on the cool grass.
"So sensei," he started, giving the other a grin. "What do you want to tell me?" Akoii smiled and hopped down.
"Well, I wanted to show you some of the spells that I wanted to teach you this summer," he walked over and around Yugi. "Some of which, I think your grandfather might not totally…agree with," he gave a shrug. "But in the sense of being your teacher, I feel a need to teach them to you. Now," he walked forward more and stopped. "Some of these are combat spells. I know you have not learned any combat spells because One: I have taught you everything and have not taught you any and Two: Your grandfather for a while forbid it," Yugi frowned and scowled at that. Aokii went on as if he did not hear the scowl.
"But, as of now, I think that you should learn some…" he turned toward Yugi. "Yugi, conjure up something…around my size. Like a log or maybe a dummy or something." The young man nodded and stood. Closing his eyes and placing his hands out at full length in front of himself, he muttered a few chosen words and a dummy or doll around the size of his teacher appeared. Opening his eyes, he used his magic again to throw the thing over to Aokii. The man caught it with his own magic and made it so the thing hung in mid air.
"So what do you want to show me sensei?" Yugi asked. Aokii grinned.
"First, I'm going to show you offensive stuff, then, defensive. Now," he turned to be facing the thing head on. "When you first go to being offensive on someone or thing, you want to face them completely. Not," he turned his body so he was facing the dummy slightly sideways. "like this like they do in movie and such, that is bad! Then, only one of your eyes had complete contact with the other. For defensive, yes that stance would work because you don't want your opponent to be staring right into your eyes. But, on offense, you want to be staring into theirs," he paused, standing straight again.
"Now, this first one is pretty simple. It's just…this," Aokii darted forward, faster then the mortal eye could see and struck the dummy right in the shoulder, his hand being made as sharp as a dagger. He moved back and used the magic to sow up where he made an incision.
"You see? Also, you remember the vital spots on a mage correct? The head," he pointed to his head. "Right bellows the clavicle bone, on both the right and left (shoulder) sides. Your points right above your lower abdomen, above the ilium bone, and also your thighs, right in the very middle," he poked his own legs. "Right under all of your goodies," Yugi couldn't help the blush that covered his face and burry his face into his hands. The reason why the vulnerable points on a mage are different then a human is that these points aren't the weak areas in their skin or tissue, but where magic lay. Of course, a deathly blow to the head will kill any mage, human or animal (dragons included). Every living thing has a vulnerable head.
The second area's, right bellow the clavicle bones is where the magic that goes to a mage's arms and chest lies. If hit there at the exact right time, the mage's powers will be taken from their arms and then the limbs will become temporarily or permanently crippled. Never being able to move them again. When being hit right above the lower abdomen, back strength will be hurt. So, the mage will lose feeling in his or her spine, and soon die. That is one of the very, very dangerous place to get hit, but also one of the hardest to hit head on. If hit directly, in the exact right spot, the mage will go crippled and die. But even if hit to the side of the point, it is still very deadly. The person's core muscle will not work to the fullest extent and be a very east target to hit.
Last is right in the mages thigh, where all the magic that courses to their legs resides. If this spot is hit during battle, the mage will have no chance of winning. They may be able to survive, but winning a battle is out of the question. If the legs, which power the entire body, become crippled, the mage will not have any chance of being able to jump, evade or even conjure spells. When the thighs are targeted, and hit, the mage could conjure a flying spell, but with arms occupied with magic, there would be nothing to push off the ground with and the mage would be stuck. These are four vital spots on a mages body, which are almost always guarded carefully and wisely.
"So!" Aokii finally exclaimed. "Let us try this. Now, up, up, common now, lets get going!" he urged the other. "I want you to try it now," he instructed. Yugi blinked, confused.
"B-but sensei…how, what is even the incantation?" Yugi bellowed. Aokii smirked.
"That is where you decide. Now, Yugi, I want you to picture something that…makes you very angry. Like your grandfather dying or something like that," Yugi stared at his sensei, confused and slightly frightened at what he was saying.
"Teacher…what…?" he asked. Aokii smiled.
"I want you to think or the one thing that will make you most angry, something that will allow you to forget all about who is in front of you and make you as angry as hell," he instructed. Yugi blinked. Well…well there were so many reasons! His grandfather not telling him secrets…his family getting angry at gays. Yugi nodded to his sensei, and turned toward the dummy. Trying to see which spot he could hit the easiest, Yugi tried to picture his grandfather, not telling him about the prophecy. The teen let out an angry sigh and then shot forward and struck the dummy right in the left shoulder. Pulling his hand back, Yugi smiled.
"That," Aokii started. "Was absolutely terrible!" he bellowed. Yugi turned to his teacher. What…what did he do?
"Sensei? What, I did what you said!" he yelled. Aokii shook his head.
"You were thinking of something to little! I could tell, you were NOT aiming to kill, you were aiming to hurt!" he sighed. "Again, and think of something that really makes your blood boil in rage. Yugi, think of something you care most about…picture of a person or thing getting destroyed. Like a favorite wood toy, burning in a fire, or a friend dying…think Yugi, THINK!" he screamed. Yugi nodded slowly and traveled back to where he should stand. Turning to face the dummy, he scowled.
'Stupid dummy…no realthing, sonofbitch, thinkingstupid…' Yugi muttered in his head. Sighing he closed his eyes and tried to picture the one, one thing…that would make him feel the urge to kill…something so devastating to him that rage would course though his heart…
Suddenly a picture appeared in his mind…it was…Atemu. Yugi felt fear rising in his throat. All he saw was black…but in the middle of all the blackness…was Atemu. He was laying, body all askew, and it seemed…that the dragon wasn't breathing. Yugi mentally stared at his lover more. There was…wait…where were Atemu's wings…
Then Yugi noticed. He could see blood, blood all over, covering the fur of the dragon. All that was left of the wings were stubs of bloody skin and bone jutting out his back. Yugi finally looked to the face of this daydream Atemu to see…eyes white as marble. Glazed…sunken…all life gone in them. Suddenly, Yugi felt it, this…inner loath for…anything, anything he just suddenly had all this rage. But, he began to feel not the want…but the need to kill something.
Aokii noticed the change in his student, his body began stiffer and lips shaking in…sadness, fear or rage, it could not be certain. Then, suddenly, Yugi's eyes snapped open and he shot forward, toward the dummy. Eyes ablaze with wild furry, his body disappeared out of Aokii's view, he was moving so fast. Then, suddenly in less then a blink of an eye, the dummy…was completely shredded. Aokii stared. Something…was deathly off. That was…amazing what Yugi just did…just…to amazing. The teen slide to a stop, breathing irregular, and brows furrowed in furry. The teacher glanced at Yugi's eyes and almost lost his breath. Then, he took the air in. It was a trick of the light…to see that color in his student's eyes. For a second, they looked almost silver, deadly, deadly silver. But as soon as his brain registered the color, they were back to the normal violet. But Yugi's eyes were still ablaze with anger. Aokii blinked again in worry, then waved it off. He would look into all this later.
"Bravo Yugi!" he exclaimed, clapping. Yugi didn't smile though, he kept his stance, eyes narrowed and body stiff, almost if he was waiting for the dummy to come back to life so he could attack it again. Aokii's claps diminished and his smile turned to a concerned frown.
"Yugi…Yugi hey," he began walking toward the teen. "Yugi, look at me!" he bellowed. No response. Aokii was finally in a two-foot distance from him when a black strip of black magic streaked in front of him, preventing the man from getting any closer to his student. Following the black magic was a screech of protest and anger. Aokii stared.
"Something is terribly wrong here…Yugi…Yugi answer me…" Yugi did not look at him again. Aokii suddenly grew quite angry and concerned.
"YUGI!" he screamed angrily, completely enraged and distressed. The teen jumped, startled and turned toward his teacher, fear edged onto his facial featured. The boys face was pale and sweat was pouring off of his face and brow.
"S-sensei…I…I…" he looked down at his hands. "W-what in the world happened…" he whispered to himself. Aokii took a step forward and noticed the black magic was no longer preventing him from going near Yugi. Running forward, he began checking the teen over for injures, anything to tell him what just happened. The black thing that blocked him before was still around…but for some reason is seemed…like an actual thing…or person. Aokii could sense distress, and sadness and fear…but why? Finally seeing Yugi really was fine he turned his attention to the thing floating in the air.
"Yugi, there is a disturbance around you…I don't like it…" he muttered. Yugi blinked, seemingly confused, but inwardly he was not.
'Atemu…'
Aokii growled in annoyance and grabbed Yugi's arm.
"We're going back to the main house now," he muttered, dragging the teen with him. Yugi went along willingly, but glanced back at what he did. The dummy was in shreds, every vital spot hit, nothing of it left. The boys face paled in fright but… Yugi could also sense…Atemu was here. His spirit, or ka was floating around him. It was concerned, scared, and wanting to know what had happened to his hikari. The ka could not talk; it was just a subconscious part of Atemu's mind. Nothing more. It circled around Yugi's body, caressing his inner mind and senses. Yugi sent a small wave of reassurance to the thing. It calmed and began to settle around the boys body, not wanting to leave it's light. Aokii sensed Yugi interacting with the 'thing' and whipped around to stare at the boy angrily.
"Yugi, whatever it is, do NOT make any contact with it understood!" he bellowed. Yugi bit back an angry growl that was threatening to escape his lips. Atemu was not a thing! He was just concerned for his dear lover, nothing more. How dare his sensei talk about his dragon like that! Alas, Yugi could say nothing. For if he did…it would lead to even more trouble.
