Since this story is sooooo close to being over and done, I decided to use this time to finish this, which concludes the ending and holds off for Drum Roll Please! (drums) BATTLE CITY! Yes folks, the next one is Battle City. That one's gonna be a challenge, not the beginning, but the ending parts. I'm gonna have to count on spoilers or something. I mean like it'd be easier to do Yugioh R than Battle City. Though, it'd be more fun to write Battle City than Yugioh R. It'll also be LONGER. Here's the reason, Battle City contains the beginning, the blimp "I'M ON A BLIMP! I'M ON A BLIMP!" lol anyways, then there's the tower. For those of you that only seen the anime, THERE'S NO NOA ARC! That was an extra. In reality, everyone just went ahead to Battle City. Here are the arcs that never were in the manga: Virtual reality game, Noa arc, Doma arc, and the grand pix (Death T was better). Basically, after Battle City, there was Yugioh R, then Millennium World. Review please!
Atem changed to Yugi after returning to the guest room where Mokuba and Seto were resting. He leaned over to the balcony of the window and watched the clouds. There were alot on his mind, especially the fact that Pegasus declared that he was possibly a ruler of a country. Atem seemed surprised, but okay with it, but Yugi was just baffled at everything he heard. He kept asking himself, 'Who am I? Where did I come from?'
Tea noticed Yugi being quiet and decided to keep him company. Ryou had explained to everyone about the evil inside the millennium items and Pegasus' true intentions. Nobody could truly hate Pegasus for what he did. After all, he was only trying to find a way to see his wife again. Ryou also feared about the evil spirit inside him returning. He warned everyone to be on their heels.
Tea placed a gentle hand on Yugi's hand. Yugi slightly turned his head and smiled.
"Something wrong?" Tea asked.
"I'm just thinking on alot of things. Pegasus told Brother that he holds the spirit of the pharaoh... me. I don't even know what I am. I only know as much as my name... or temporary name, as Pegasus puts it. Is it possible that Yugi's not my true name, but like a nickname or something?" Yugi asked.
"Even if Pegasus was right about you being some sort of king or something, you're still Yugi aren't you? Even if that isn't your real name?"
"I suppose, but does it hurt to want too know who you are?"
"No, it isn't, Yugi. I'll tell you what, maybe when we return home, we can answer those questions. I heard the museum has a new exhibit."
Yugi smiled, then hugged Tea, thanking, "thanks Tea."
"Anytime," Tea replied before placing a kiss on Yugi's cheek.
"Hmmm," a moan was heard before Yugi changed to Atem and he walked quickly to Mokuba's side.
"Mokuba?" Atem whispered, his thumb stroking Mokuba's hair from his face. Mokuba slowly opened his eyes and saw Atem's smiling face. He smiled widely before glomping into Atem's embrace, crying in his chest. "It's alright. I'm right here." Atem brushed Mokuba's thick hair before placing a kiss on the boy's head. "Yugi defeated Pegasus thanks to you and everyone else."
"I know!" Mokuba cried, wiping his tears. "We kicked ass, didn't we?"
"We sure did."
"Ugh," Seto moaned, before sitting himself upright. "What the hell?"
"SETOOO!" Mokuba cried aloud before he pounced on Seto, who was resting in the same bed as he was. "You're back! You're really back!"
"Morning, Rich Boy," Joey smirked with folded arms.
"Glad to see both of you awake. Pegasus is defeated, which means he won't gain control of Kaiba Corporation. Speaking of which, I wonder where..." Atem questioned himself before hearing the door open. Ryan had switched with Ryou, after he left to go find the first key Pegasus took from Mokuba. "You found it?"
"The rich ass' butler gave me the key. Also... I've got really bad news," Ryan said with a dark tone in his voice. "I can't take the ring off... again, and after getting the key... I think Ryou's evil spirit caused some trouble... again."
"What happened?" Atem asked with nervousness.
"I wish I knew," Ryan smirked before showing a snort through his nose. "Anyways..." He threw the first key to Atem before he gave it to Mokuba.
"Sweet!" Mokuba responded.
"Since Pegasus is gone, I'd like to have my key back," Seto demanded.
"Uh... okay," Atem agreed with a slight blush. He turned to Tea. "You think you can... leave. Not to be rude, but... the key is..."
"I probably don't wanna know, do I?" Tea asked with a snicker on her face as Atem smirked, shaking his head. The girl left the room.
Seto narrowed his eyebrows and asked, "where the hell did you put it to make your girlfriend leave?"
"It's..." Atem hesitated as he pointed to his crouch as every person's jaw dropped.
"Shiiiiiiiiit," Joey responded.
"YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Seto snapped as he ran for Atem while he escaped into the bathroom.
"I'll clean it up!" Atem promised after slamming and locking the door.
"YOU OPEN THE F***ING DOOR YOU F***ING SON OF A BITCH, SHITTING ON MY KEY!"
"Seto!" Mokuba cried while Seto kept banging on the door. "Atem did have it around his neck at first, but then Pegasus attacked us and almost took our keys. We had to find a perfect place where nobody could retrieve it."
"At least now we know why Pegasus had to take Atem and Yugi's soul and make their body a rag doll in order to steal the key," Ryan chuckled before Tea was finally allowed to come in, since Atem was removing and cleaning the second key in the restroom.
"What the hell happened?" Tea asked.
"Kiaba's pissed, because Atem stuck the key in his d***," Ryan replied as Tea's face flushed hot red.
"Sorry I asked!" Tea snickered, grossed out.
Atem exited from the bathroom with the second key in his hand. It was cleaned and decontaminated, since it was at his penis area. Seto was still angry at Atem for sticking the key in there, but decided that babysitting Mokuba and taking care of all his needs made them even. All in all, Atem was glad everything was back to normal and this tournament was finally over.
One of Pegasus' employees entered the room, nodding his head at Seto, who just gave him an angry look. The employee walked up to Atem and gave him a check.
"Here's your prize money. For the left hand, you have the option to own Industrial Illutions," the employer offered.
"No, Industrial Illusions belongs to Pegasus," Atem declared.
"That's the other thing... Pegasus was attacked and found with a... bloody eye. We think someone attacked him and stole his millennium eye."
Atem's eyes widened, knowing or suspecting who it was. Ryou's evil spirit had definitely returned, there was no doubt about it. Though, Atem didn't want Ryan to get arrested or get killed, because of a an evil spirit that was controlling him against his will. He knew the only way to save Ryan and Ryou was to defeat the evil spirit inside them. This was something no law inforcement could do, but someone who had battled this evil power for thousands of years, Yugi. If he was truly pharaoh, then he could defeat this evil being somehow.
"What's gonna happen now?" Atem asked, acting clueless about what happened to Pegasus.
"We could give it to Yako and Gekko Pegasus," The employer said as everyone rose their eyebrows.
"Pegasus has kids?" Atem asked in surprise.
"After his wife died, Pegasus adopted two young lads," the employer explained as Atem nodded his head. The employer sighed deeply. "They'll be greatly sad for their loss."
"Despite his cruel threats, he had a heart," Atem said.
"I think in reality, he was chasing after his dead wife."
The employer left the room, then Seto got up from the bed, including Mokuba. Everyone left the castle where a helicopter awaited for Seto and Mokuba. The wind from the helicopter swept through everyone by the propeller. Seto turned his head toward Atem who held a slight smirk.
"Remember, this battle isn't over yet!" Seto promised as Atem held a thumbs up.
"And we get to fly on a private helicopter, losers!" Mokuba smirked as Joey's head boiled.
"Why you little..." Joey glared while shaking his fist.
"Speaking of the devil, is there any way to get out of his f***ing island?" Ryan asked as everyone turned bug-eyed.
"Guess you'll have to swim," Seto smirked.
"F***! THERE'S NO BOATS AROUND HERE!" Mai was complaining while running out of the castle. While everyone else were with Seto and Mokuba in the guest room, Mai was trying to find a boat or ship.
"Seto, how about we let them ride in our copter?" Mokuba asked.
"You have got to be f***ing kidding me!" Seto glared.
"It's rather that or I can use the internet access around here to post the security camera video of our duel where you almost committed suicide," Atem threatened with a devilish smirk.
"YOU WOULDN'T!"
"Try me."
"Fine, but after this, we're even. If I hear one bullshit from how you owe me something, I'll gladly sock you in the gut!"
"Deal!"
Atem, Ryan, Hanaski, Tea, Joey, Tristan, and Mai scrunched themselves inside the private helicopter. Seto felt completely annoyed that he had to bring the most annoying people he was ever acquainted with to Japan. On the positive side, at least this bizarre tournament was over and so was dealing with Pegasus. Since he didn't own Industrial Illusions anymore, the Big Five would be out of a job. In the end, everything turned out the way it was supposed to. Things were finally back to normal... sorta.
Seto and Mokuba returned to their mansion and worked on the Kaiba Corporation stocks. Seto was able to organize everything and make sure that everything was sold. At the same time, Seto was also making plans for a tournament to make up for his last duel with Atem. A part of him felt horribly guilty for losing his pride. While making plans that were written in blue print, he stared at his left hand, which still held Atem's name.
"Until we settle the score," Seto muttered before returning back to his typing.
Then, Seto heard a buzzing sound that was like a back massage machine. This made him almost jump off his chair and go completely berserk. Someone was using the jacuzzi tub on the second floor. Mokuba was sitting on the desk next to his brother and Hobson was cleaning the kitchen.
"Mokuba, are you sure there's nobody else in here? I thought you said you checked the security cameras," Seto glared as Mokuba's eyes widened, then realized something.
"Oh... that's Atem. He just came in two hours ago," Mokuba explained.
"Why the hell is he here?"
"Well, you see. After you were comatose, he started visiting me almost everyday. He's kinda like family now, so I'm... kinda used to him around." Seto sighed deeply, covering his face with his hand. "Do you want him to..."
"As long as he doesn't bother me and pretends he never was here, I don't f***ing care if he puts his ass here or not!" Seto replied in an annoyed tone. Then, a smirk appeared. "But maybe he could be useful for one project." He gave the blue prints for his next tournament to Mokuba. "Tell Atem he can be a coe-host for this event on a few conditions."
Mokuba peered at it and asked, "Battle City?"
"It's my new tournament. This time, it'll be more challenging than Duelist Kingdom. I will need to be sure that Atem will attend and I know how picky he is about some of the rules in a dueling tournament."
"ALRIGHT!" Mokuba replied in a grinning fashion.
Seto watched his little brother excitedly run to the second floor to where Atem was bathing. At least he found some used to Atem staying over, but it would still take some getting used to. This next tournament would make up for everything. All of the tournaments Seto ever had with Atem were always involving cruel force or putting lives in danger. Not anymore! This time, this would be a normal tournament and not just a 'normal tournament,' it'd also be a challenging tournament for all duelists. It would only be when Seto settled things with Atem that he would claim the final piece to his own heart.
Preview for At-Em-Oh Battle City: Just when Atem starts settling down from Duelist Kingdom, he faces a new adventure with obtaining Yugi's memories. To do this, Yugi must win the three Egyptian God cards and defeat his new enemy, Marik. Though, his mission isn't as easy as it seems. Friends taken hostage, Serenity recovering from her operation, and mysteries uncovering Yugi's ancient history. Just when Atem thinks the Rare Hunters could never get any worse, he is dead wrong when the final contestants, battling Marik, end up on the road to their death bed. Battle City is about to get bloody... LITERALLY!
