Hiya
I'm really terribly sorry for not updating until now.
I've been having a hard time with someone at school and had a lot of tests to do before Christmas AND the school just got the net and computers this Friday, so I haven't been able to update
I want to thank you all for being so patient and for reviewing
Now on with the fic, shall we?

"Talking"
(Yami to ???)
/Yugi to Yami/
//Yami to Yugi//
Chapter 8 …..Can't come up with a name….
After awhile Atemu finally realized what Yugi and Aracia had been talking about. He turned red and apologized as well, even if it wasn't until a few days after the accident. Aracia had finally suppressed the memories of it, when he came, only to get them back at full force. Yugi hadn't been very happy with him after that.
"Aibou, I've said I'm sorry over thousand times already. Please forgive me" he whimpered. Yugi ignored this and continued reading some books about Egyptian history. Atemu pouted slightly, but then he got an idea. He grabbed Yugi's book and tossed it onto the bed, with the other one protesting when his book disappeared from in front of him. Yugi glared at the former Pharaoh and went over to the bed, when he was there Atemu tackled him onto t and laid over him.
"Let me go!" Yugi said, his eyes narrowed slightly. Atemu shook his head. "Atemu, stop fooling around! We don't have time for this"
"No. I won't let you go until you've forgiven me, koi" he replied back. Yugi's glare disappeared and he started to giggle, leaving Atemu perplexed.
"I forgave you the first time you apologized. I just wanted to see how long it took until you lost it" he said through his giggles. Atemu gave him a playful glare, and started tickling him. Yugi's laughs and screams of torment could be heard through the whole mansion. The door burst open to reveal Bakura, Marik and the others.
"What in the name of Ra are the two of you doing?" Bakura yelled, slightly angered by the rude disturbance. He hadm secretly, hoped to find a fight of the bloody kind, not Atemu tormenting Yugi with tickles.
"Nothing special, Bakura. Just a little punishing" Atemu replied. Yugi looked pleadingly at them, eyes speaking his message instead of his mouth, since he couldn't stop laughing.
"Yami, I think you'd stop tickling Yugi now. He can hardly breathe over there" Ryou pointed out. Atemu nodded and got of his little mate. Yugi took a few deep breaths to calm down. When he did he sent his partner a small glare.
"Anyway we thought you'd want to know that my jet's taking us home later today. It's about time we headed back home. Mokuba's at Mr. Mouto, and I can't leave him there any more. Besides it's safer back home, with my guards" Seto stated. Atemu looked up at him.
"Yes, you might be right. Yet I fear that us going back to Japan will bring more danger upon Yugi, since they live there" he growled. Yoh and Ren looked at each other, and then Yoh looked back with a smile on his lips.
"Shouldn't be so hard to take them down. We'll just make a really good plan and then attack" Ren said. Everyone looked up and at them at this. "What?! Stop staring at me like I'm mad or something"
"Y-you want to fight them?!" Yugi stuttered. Ren nodded. "That's insane; you'll be dead before you can reach the main house!"
"We've done this before, with Ren's uncle…but that time it wasn't really planned" Yoh said, causing the others to sweat drop. "Still I'm sure that we'll make it" Yugi shook his head, disbelieving that thought.
"They have a whole bunch of undead thingies and evil spirits…How do you plan to handle all of them?" Yugi asked his eyes fearful and desperate. He felt a hand under his chin and looked up into Atemu's loving eyes.
"Leave that to me, biaw nfr (1) koi" Atemu replied with a smirk.
"Osiris?" Yugi asked, leaving almost everyone in confusion. Atemu's smirk stayed in it's place, as he nodded.
"Yes, Osiris and a few others" he answered. The door flew open completely at this. Everybody jumped, as Shadi and Aracia entered the former looking kinda disturbed and the later worried.
"My Pharaoh, you can't mean you're going to send the Shadow Creatures onto them. There won't be anything left of them after that!" Shadi said staring at Atemu with his hazy blue eyes. Atemu shrugged it of, ignoring him completely.
"Sire, if you don't mind me asking… How will you take down the spirits? Are there even a creature in the Shadow Realm that can take it down?" Aracia asked. Atemu looked up at this.
"I have a few tricks and some of the creatures can as you say 'take down' those spirits. They have before" he stated, walking over to the window, looking rather sad. Yugi noticed immediately and went over.
"Atemu?" he asked softly, his voice was full of worry. Atemu looked down at his little mate, tears running freely down his cheeks.
"She – my old guardian was killed by them. She was protecting me when they killed her, then my father…just because of something my cursed uncle did" he whispered, so that only Yugi could hear him. Yugi's face was a mix of horror, sympathy and worry. He gave Aracia a look and watched as she shooed the others out of the room.
It took a few hours until they came out from the room and by then the others were ready to go to the closest air port. What surprised them most was a pair of suitcases at the front door.
"Who are those belonging to?" Yugi asked. Everybody shrugged and said that they had no idea.
"They're mine, sire" Aracia replied from the staircase. "Master Shadi ordered me to go with you in case you needed my help"
"How can you help? You're just a little girl" Anna said. Aracia glared at her slightly.
"I've studied the ancient priests' texts and teachings, besides that Master Shadi have taught me a few things as well. I know very well how to send spirits into the afterlife or the mouth of Ammut" she replied, feeling a little insulted. To try to prevent a catfight Aracia sat in a different car then Anna, when they're driven to the airport.
They said 'goodbye' to Shadi and entered Kaiba's private jet. As they took of Yugi came to think of something.
"Didn't you say that one of your Priest's name was Shada a while ago, Atemu?" Yugi asked timidly.
"Yes…?" Was his short, questioning reply.
"Didn't he have a son named Shadi? Or is it just me imagining things?"
"Now that you mention it, it's a weird coincidence isn't it?" Atemu said. Yugi nodded and looked over at Aracia as she giggled.
"By now you should know that there's nothing as a coincidence when it is about your wellbeing, my lord. Shadi's been hanging around since his body was killed, since no one was around, and he had been put under the duty to protect your tomb by your cousin. Since he's that old he can easily get solid whenever he wants to"
"I see…"
"I have another question…" Aracia said looking at Atemu. " How are you going to explain your sudden tan to your grandfather?" Atemu just smiled.
"Who said, that I couldn't change back into ´Yami's´ appearance?" he said, as he suddenly had paler skin and wore black leather pants, a black tank top, a neck belt and a pair of cuffs. Aracia jumped a bit startled.
