Wolf: Here's the next chapter of the story, now you can know what happened to Yami. Sorry if it is kind of sure, but we are getting to the end here.

Chapter 13: Aftermath

Once Seto got back to the mansion he had Yugi wait in the throne room till the other vampires came back with Yami. Yugi sat on the throne steps as he waited impatiently for Yami t o get back. Seto stood next to him as he waited as well. He had his arms crossed over his chest and his eyes closed as he tried to keep calm.

"I'm worried, Seto." Yugi said.

Seto opened his eyes and looked down at him.

"I know Yugi. I am too. I don't like leaving Yami sometimes with werewolves." Seto said.

"Leaving him with werewolves? Why?" Yugi asked.

Seto put his gaze forward, "The last time the vampires had a major battle with the werewolves, almost 50 years ago. In that battle, Yami was the closest to dieing that day. He was injured saver and if I hadn't gotten him out to there in time, he would have been dead." Seto told him.

Yugi was silent, Seto knew what it was like to almost loss Yami and now he was put in that spot again.

"I'm sorry Seto." Yugi apologized.

"No need. That's all in the past. We have to deal with what's going on now." Seto waved him off.

Yugi nodded with a sigh.

They waited for a bit longer until the doors opened and Dartz came walking in quickly. Yugi stood from the steps as Seto unfolded his arms. Dartz stopped in front of the two.

"Master Dartz, did you find Yami?" Seto asked.

"We did, but we may have found him to late." Dartz answered.

Yugi gasped, "What do you mean?" Yugi wondered.

"We found him and he had lost a lot of blood. Telsuro left a giant bit mark in his shoulder and another bit mark was on his arm. He pasted out when we found him." Dartz explained.

Yugi was silent.
"Where is he now?" Seto wondered.

"We have him down in the medical room. They are trying to get blood back in his system." Dartz said.

Seto nodded.

"Can we see him?" Yugi asked quietly.

Dartz though for a moment, "Of course. I'll lead you to him." Dartz turned to Seto, "Do you want to come with us Seto?" Dartz asked.

"Yes, I want to see how he is as well." Seto answered.

Dartz nodded and waved for them to follow him. They walked behind him. Dartz led them down hallways to the west wing of the mansion , where half of it was like a mini hospital.

"Did Yami even managed to kill Telsuro?" Seto asked.

"To my surprise, Yami left Telsuro bleeding to death. He was also paralyzed and couldn't move, but I put him out of his misery." Dartz explained.

"Well at least we don't have to worry about him anymore." Yugi said.

"True, but we don't know where the werewolves went. They could have left of went into hiding. For now, this war, has come to an end." Dartz said.

Dartz stopped at a pair of twin doors that said 'Recovery' on the top of the door.

"I don't know how he is once he got here. So I'm not sure about his condition." Dartz told them.

Both nodded.

Dartz opened the doors and walked into the room, Seto and Yugi followed. Dartz stopped to talk to a doctor to see if he knew anything of where Yami was. The doctor pointed down the set of beds to the last one on the right, where the white curtains where around the bed. They stopped at the bed. Dartz turned to them.

"The doctor said he's stable, but still unconscious. He lost a lot of blood so they're trying to give him back the blood he lost." Dartz said.

Dartz pulled back the curtain to Yami's bed and the three walked in and were surprised to see Yami's state.

His shirt was off and bandages covered his left shoulder and right forearm. There was still some blood that was reaching the surface of the bandages. Blood was going in through his left arm. Yugi was shocked to see him like that. Yugi walked forward and sat on a chair that was next to the bed.

Yugi was so lost by Yami's condition, he didn't hear Dartz and Seto's conversation.

Dartz turned to Seto, "You have a strong cousin there Seto. I'm surprised he didn't die for how much blood he lost." Dartz told him.

"It wouldn't surprise me. Besides," Seto looked to Yugi, "Yami has something to actually live fore now." Seto said.

Dartz also looked towards Yugi. Dartz could see the care, fear, and love in the the humans eyes as he looked at Yami.

Dartz actually smiled. "I'm glad Yami's found someone that can at least keep him calm and sane as well." Dartz said.

"I agree. I've never seen Yami happier, or care for a human like this, the while time I've been a vampire." Seto told him.

Dartz nodded.

"Yugi, do you want to be alone with Yami for a little bit?" Dartz asked.

Yugi looked back at him, "Is that okay?" Yugi wondered.

"Yes." Dartz answered.

Yugi nodded with a smile.

Seto walked out and Dartz stopped for a moment.

"I do know about you and Yami. I figured it out a while ago, but there is nothing to worry about. I will let your relationship be. Just make sure to look out for Yami to make sure he does no wrong. He's been like that for the last couple hundred years." Dartz told Yugi.

Yugi got worried at first until he heard Dartz was okay with their relationship.

"I will sir, I promise." Yugi said.

Dartz nodded and walked out.

Yugi turned his attention to Yami, "Oh Yami. I'm so sorry this happened." Yugi whispered.

Yugi grabbed Yami's and and held it tight. Yugi brought Yami's hand to his lips and kissed it. Yugi laid his forehead on Yami's hand. He started to cry a bit. He never wanted this to happen to Yami.

His love was hurt and it was his fault. He was brought into this all because he walked home. If he would have never left the shop that night, he wouldn't have been put into this war. Although, he would have never meet the one man that ever showed him love. Yami was the most important thing to happen to him, without him, he was incomplete without Yami now. Especially now since Yami is hurt.

Yugi felt a twitch from Yami's hand. Yugi looked at the hand then up to Yami. Yami's hand twitched again.

"Yami? Yami, can you hear me?" Yugi asked.

Yugi moved some of Yami's bangs out of his face.

Yami's eyes flickered open and he looked over towards Yugi.

"Yugi?" Yami wondered softly.

Yugi smiled and moved to onto Yami's bed, "Yes Yami, its me." Yugi answered.

Yami weakly smiled, "I'm glad you're alright." Yami said.

"I'm glad you didn't die." Yugi said, tears falling again.

Yami lifted his hand to lay it on Yugi's cheek and whipped some of the tears away.

"Don't cry Yugi. I'm alright and nothings going to happen to me. I'll be up on my feet by tomorrow." Yami told him.

"You sure?" Yugi wondered.

"Of course. When I'm well enough, I'll come back to your apartment with you." Yami said.

Yugi smiled at that and gave Yami a gentle hug. Yami's smiled and kissed Yugi. Yugi put his forehead to Yami's.

"I love you." Yugi said.

"I love you too." Yami said.

Yami kissed him.

"I want to stay with you tonight." Yugi suggested.

"No Yugi. Go home, get some rest." Yami told him.

"Please, Yami?" Yugi begged.

"Not today. I'll be with you tomorrow, for sure. I need more rest and you need rest as well. I'll be fine here." Yami said.

Yugi sighed, he knew it was no use arguing with Yami.

"Alright. I'll go, but I'm coming back tomorrow." Yugi said.

"I understand." Yami nodded.

Yugi kissed Yami again, "I'll see you."

Yugi turned to leave.

"Hey Yugi." Yami started.

Yugi turned back to look at him.

"Take my car. I don't want you to walk home in the dark." Yami told him.

Yugi's eyes went wide and smiled, "Really?" Yugi made sure.

"Yea, go ahead." Yami reached over to the nightstand by his bed.

He grabbed the keys and threw them to Yugi.

Yugi grabbed them and his smile grew.

"Thank you Yami. Thank you." Yugi thanked.

Yugi kissed Yami again.

"Just don't wreck it." Yami warned.

"I wont. I promise." Yugi promised.

Yami nodded and kissed Yugi.

Yugi turned and happily walked out. Yami smiled at him and shook his head.

"That's the Yugi I love to see. Always with a smile on his face." Yami said to himself.
