Yugi just continuously stared at the wall, not daring to look into the eyes of the previous bullies. One question that Yugi could never answer was why they bullied him in the first place if they only wanted to help him. Shaking off that question, he spoke out loud with another, "He's j-jealous?"
"Yes... Yami is very jealous of you, Yugi. That's why he's doing this to you, Yugi. Because he wanted friends. But he doesn't want just anyone, only us; not you. He doesn't even want you to come near us or have anything to do with us. Even Joey and Tristan are siding with us now. They're coming to help us tomorrow. Is that Okay?" Tea questioned.
Silence filled the room for a couple of minutes which meant that Yugi was just deciding what to say. He was speechless. However, he decided that he was going to give them a second chance. So, he nodded to what she had said before saying, "Y-yes... I-I'd like to give them a-a second ch-chance."
"Wonderful!"
"And Yami..."
"What?"
"I-If he comes to his senses..."
"Oh, alright..." Tea and Bakura said, uncertain of why Yugi would want to do that. They know that Yugi had a heart of gold, but they didn't know he was that kind to give Yami a second chance. He had been mentally torturing and physically hitting Yugi for a long time now. Yugi's statement had confused them all, leading them into deep thoughts of why.
"Well..." Seto said, breaking the continuous silence. "I have to go now... Kaiba business. Bye."
"Yeah, so do I - But not Kaiba business." Tea mentioned.
"B-Bye..." Yugi waved as they walked out the door and left the building.
"Bye, Yugi." They called back as they exited.
That night when everyone was soundly asleep, the door opened, quietly. Dispersing from the shadows came the mysterious and malicious men who crept through the building, unnoticed and unheard. "Hurry up with the ransom note!" One of them hissed, silently. His face filled with anger, yet within that anger was a victorious and a menacing smirk.
"You tie him and gag him whilst I write the damn note." The other one said, angrily.
"Okay! Okay! God you're so dumb..." He murmured. "Why do I have to work with you...?"
One of the men grabbed Yugi carefully so he didn't wake up. Then, he wrapped rope around his arms and legs and sluggishly tightened them, making sure that he wouldn't wake up, no matter what. He then pulled a black cloth from his pocket and tied it around the sleeping boy's head, covering his eyes. In addition, he wrapped rope around his mouth so then he couldn't scream for help or make a sound.
The evil man cackled as he picked up Yugi and threw him into a sac; carelessly waking him up and causing him to panic, hyperventilate and cry. Not exactly like any tears would escape due to the blindfold being too tight to let even a single drop out from it. Instead, it just coated the material itself. "Hey! I got the kid, you done with the note?!"
"Yeah, now shut up! We gotta get outta' here!"
The other villainous man left the note on the table where it could be easily spotted, even by the blind eye. They grabbed the sack which contained Yugi and dragged it across the floor as they sprinted away, without making a racket.
They flung Yugi into the back of the truck and slamming down the trunk as quick as they could before setting off for their hideout where they would torture him and make his life a living hell...
Yugi was in so much shock and panic right now, he couldn't move and he could barely breathe. The air around him was stale since there wasn't enough air in the sack which he was mercilessly hurled into. His vision blurred as everything became fuzzy. He could feel himself drifting off again as he eventually fell unconscious.
When the car had come to a sudden halt, Yugi managed to stirr awake slightly as he felt the hands of the vicious enemy dragging him away. Terror filled Yugi's soul as he had an awful feeling of what was about to happen, even though he wasn't completely sure was going to happen; only that he wouldn't like it. "Come on! Get him to the hideout already!" One of them bellowed with a dominant voice.
"Shut up!" The other yelled back.
Yugi had noticed that they entered a peculiar building, due to the surrounding area being completely void of all life and pitch black. The little light which shone through the bag had disappeared. He knew that this wasn't going to end well.
The cruel men tossed the sack onto the floor which caused Yugi to fly out of the sack and hit the wall behind him. They walked over to him and pinned him to the ground as they took off his blindfold. Yugi saw the men's eyes and only his eyes. Both of their eyes were filled with hatred and disgust and Yugi lay there almost unconscious and practically dead.
One of the men had a midnight blue eye colour, whereas the other had a crimson red colour. Their eyes were basically piercing Yugi's soul with every second that had passed...
The man with blue eyes came closer to Yugi and callously kicked him in the stomach which made Yugi throw up onto his shoes. The blue eyed man looked at Yugi as if he were some piece of beep on the end of someone's shoe. "Why you little...!" He screeched, punching and kicking Yugi even more as Yugi yelped in agony and pain. The abuse came to an end as soon as Yugi had stopped squirming and squealing... He had passed out...
The men's mission had only just begun...
