Chapter 3: Two broken chains

"Yami!"

Yami turned back to his mother, "Yes, mom?"

"Tomorrow… why don't you and your brother go play a little longer," she said softly.

"But dad doesn't like us outside the village too long," Yami said.

"It was your father's idea," she informed, "So don't hurry back, alright?"

For a moment he thought he saw her face sadden, but maybe he was just imagining things. "Okay!" he smiled and rushed out after his brother.

~YUGIOH~

"Mommy said we could played for a while?" Bakura asked as he picked up the fish net.

"Yeah," Yami threw a flat rock across the river surfaced.

"Big brother?"

"Hm?"

"Do you think something is wrong? Mommy never let us played out for long. Maybe something happened."

Yami didn't say anything, but simply stared off into a distance. 'Bakura's right. Something isn't right. Dad would never let us stay out late, let alone mom. Something's up!' "Bakura! We're goi- Bakura?" he looked around, "Bakura!"

Running as fast as he could back to the village, Bakura ignored the scratches he got from the branches. "Mommy!"

~YUGIOH~

"Damn! Damn it, Bakura!" Yami cursed as he rushed through the forest back to the village.

He stopped outside the closed gate. "Hey!" he shouted, "Let me in!"

He waited, but the gate remained closed, "Hey! Open the gate!"

Slowly, the gate parted. "Finally," he muttered impatiently, "Huh?" he blinked.

Across from him, stood a boy covered in blood. He was holding a spear in his hand and was standing among the many dead bodies. The tiny huts around him were up in flame. Tears came down from the boy's eyes as he looked up at Yami.

"Bakura?" Yami looked at the dead bodies, "W-What happened?"

"Big brother," Bakura bit his bottom lip, trying to hold back his tears but was unable to. Dropping the spear, he rushed to his brother and hugged him tightly as he begun to cry. "M-Mommy and Daddy!" he choked out.

"What happened?" Yami asked in a rushed as he put his arms around his brother.

"What happened to Mom and Dad?" he asked again, in a panicking voice.

"T-They," Bakura didn't finish before he started crying again.

"Come on!" Yami grabbed his hand and dashed towards their hut, the only one that isn't up in flame.

"Mom! Dad!" he shouted as they burst into the house. "Mo- Mom! Dad!" he let go of Bakura's hand and rushed to the bloody woman on the floor along with her husband. Yami shook the bodies, but they weren't waking up.

"No! Mom! Dad!" he begun to cry as he continued to shook them and shouting for them to wake up!

Bakura run to his brother's side and cry. Yami put his arms around his little brother and cried his heart out. Right then he didn't care that everyone else were dead. He just wanted their parents to wake up. Because of the pain, he didn't noticed the smirk on Bakura's face.
