Ha! Fooled you didn't I? There's one last chapter before this story ends!
Chapter 8: Epilouge
Thirty years later.
Yugi guided a young angel through the moves of the spell of light. She was trying to create a bright flash. All of a sudden a huge flash of light occurred and he was temporarily blinded.
"I'm sorry Yugi!" The girl said frantically. She wondered if she would be punished. She was surprised when Yugi burst out laughing and ruffled her hair.
"It's okay!" He bent down and leaned in so that his blonde bangs touched her forehead. "I did the exact same thing when I was your age." He whispered, Atuma's eyes widened.
"You did?"
"Yes, don't tell any of the angels though! It'll ruin my good reputation!" He winked and Atuma smiled. She knew Archangel Yugi couldn't care less about his reputation. Her eyes widened as she realized what time it was.
"Yugi! I just remembered something!" She grabbed his wrist and pulled him out of the training grounds where angels were still recovering from the effects of Atuma's spell. It felt eerily similar to the time he had blinded everyone on the training grounds. He heard someone shout!
"Yugi! Looks like she inherited your knack for causing trouble!"
"I could say the same of your pupil!" He shouted back. His old tutor looked back just in time to catch the flash of light caused by his pupil losing control of his spell. His tutor got up with a face of stone, and then laughed.
"You haven't changed a bit!"
"Neither have you! Hey! Atuma! Don't worry! I'm sure that whatever we're seeing won't be gone in the next five minutes!" She shook her head. If only he knew! She hurried down to the cliff of the fallen. Yugi stiffened and looked at her. She avoided his gaze. She knew he didn't like to come here. But this was important. "Why did you bring us here?" He said stonily.
"Wait just a moment. It'll start soon."
"What will…oh." The sky lit up and stars began to dance around each other. Some of them got brighter and shot toward the cliff. They landed gently. Their light was almost unbearable. Then one dimmed and revealed an angel. Yugi stared in shock.
"But…that's…"
"Yep. The first archangel." Yugi looked around and saw that all the stars were resolving into angels.
"What's happening?"
"Every one hundred years on all saints day the spirits of angels can come back here. They're able to stay until the sun sets, and that's only if an angel that's still alive is with them. If an angel doesn't show up to help tie them down within five minutes they have to go back. That's why I was in such a hurry to get here."
"But why did you bring me here? I don't…." His eyes widened. He walked forward like he was in a dream. He studied the person in front of him intensely. The purple star on his robes pulsed like a heart.
"Hello Yugi." With a choked cry he flung his arms around Atem's neck and sobbed on his shoulder.
"Atem…I'm glad you're back." Sorrow crossed Atem's face.
"I can only stay until the sun sets…not forever." Yugi looked up at him and dried his eyes.
"I know…But I'm glad I get to see you again…for however short a time." Atem smiled. He hummed and held Yugi close. He glowed with a handsome violet light.
"So am I Yugi. So am I."
