Chapter 7
Yami and Atemu walked into the Game Shop and headed upstairs and into the guest room. The door had hardly closed when Atemu pushed Yami up against it and kissed him. Yami wrapped his arms around Atemu's neck while Atemu snaked his around Yami's waist. Atemu pulled away from Yami's lips for a minute to say, "We should probably move this to the bed Anku."
Yami nodded and said, "But first make sure the door is locked Atemu."
Atemu snapped his fingers and Yami heard the lock click. Atemu picked Yami up and carried him over to the bed; he had barely set Yami down before attaching his lips to Yami's neck. Atemu snapped his fingers again and all their cloths vanished.
An hour later when Yami was just beginning to dose off Grandpa knocked on their door. "Yami, phone call for you." Grandpa yelled through the door.
"Alright, I'll be out in a minute." Yami yelled as he regretfully pulled away from Atemu and pulled on a bathrobe before he wandered out the door. Grandpa handed him the phone before he walked back downstairs.
"Hello."
"Hey, Yami it's me Yugi."
"Hey Aibou, what's up?"
"Well, thanks to Joey's big mouth Kaiba now knows that you have your own body and has demanded to that you come and duel him. Apparently he has some sort of a new dueling system he's just perfected and he wants you to help him test it. So, can you?"
"Yes Aibou, I can do that. Did he say what time he wanted me to be there?"
"Well, he wants you to be there in about 30 minutes thinking you and Atemu can stop messing around long enough for you to make it?"
"Very funny Aibou but yes Atemu and I will be there."
"Alright, well I'll let Kaiba know and I guess I'll see you there."
"Alright, bye Aibou."
"Bye Yami."
Yami hung up the phone before walking back into the guest room and going over to his and Atemu's closet. "Atemu you have to get up. We have to be at Kaiba Corp in a half hour so we need to get dressed." Yami said as he pulled out something for him and Atemu to wear.
/But Anku…/
//No buts Atemu, now get up.//
/(sigh) fine./
//Thank you.//
Twenty five minutes later the two walked hand and hand into Kaiba Corp. Mokuba met them at the entrance and showed them to the dueling arena his brother was waiting at. Mokuba paused in front of the door to a room. "Alright, Yami my brother's in there. You'll need to go in there and put on the stuff sitting beside the door. The rest of us will be watching you from out here." Mokuba said.
Yami nodded. Atemu tightened his hold on Yami's hand. /Anku I have a bad feeling about this./
//Atemu you had a bad feeling about the roller coaster too and that was just fine.//
/Anku this is different./
//Atemu Kaiba isn't going to hurt me. We're just playing a friendly game of duel monsters. No Shadow Magic involved. I promise. Trust me, I'll be just fine. Now, go with Mokuba and cheer me on.//
/Alright Anku. But I swear if he hurts you I'm killing him./
Yami just chuckled and gave Atemu a peck on the cheek. "Don't worry, I'll be fine." Yami said before he pulled his hand out of Atemu's and walked through the door.
Atemu hesitantly followed Mokuba up to the observation deck where Yugi, Joey, Tristan and the bitch were all standing. Atemu chose to ignore all of them while he focused his attention on watching his Anku. He really had a bad feeling about this, but he was willing to trust Yami's judgement. I just hope that I don't regret this.
Atemu thought back to the last time he'd had a gut feeling that his Anku was in danger. Yami had insisted that he was going to be fine, that Atemu had nothing to worry about. Atemu had relented and left Yami alone and went to the throne room. He hadn't been able to shake the feeling and ended up ending his meeting early to go back and check on Yami. He'd found Yami cornered by an assassin who was about to drive a dagger into Yami's chest.
//Atemu that was just a coincidence. I'm just fine. You'll be able to see me the entire time. You'd be able to get here to help me before anyone could do anything to hurt me.//
/Okay Yami, I'm sorry, I just…/
//Worry, I know, I know. So, are you going to wish me luck Atemu?//
/You don't need luck Anku, you exceed your opponent in skill by a sizable amount. I have complete faith in you and your abilities. You will be victorious Yami./
//(chuckles) Thanks for the vote of confidence.//
/I love you Anku./
//I know, I love you too Atemu. And after I win this you and I can celebrate tonight. Sound like a plan?//
/Sounds like a plan Anku. I look forward to it./
Atemu chuckled and Yami smiled at him from inside the room and gave Atemu a thumbs up before turning his attention onto Kaiba.
Everything started out smoothly. It was a simple duel monsters match and the new holographic technology was astounding. Yami was easily outmatching Kaiba and appeared to be about two turns away from winning the duel when disaster struck. There was a power surge and next thing Atemu knew he felt pain. Excruciating pain through his link with Yami. And then nothing. Atemu sprinted down the hall and wrenched open the door that Yami had entered earlier.
He saw Yami lying face down on the ground, not moving. Kaiba was running towards him, a look of what appeared to be genuine concern on his face. Atemu didn't care, the only thing that mattered was Yami. Atemu ran over to him and lifted his head, cradling it in his lap. "Yami, Anku come on you have to wake up." Atemu said. Yami didn't move.
/Anku please answer me./
There was no answer. Atemu felt his blood run cold. He leaned his head down and was able to feel Yami's breath on the side of his face. So he knew that his Anku wasn't dead, but still he wasn't waking up. The only thing Atemu was able to get from his link with Yami was pain and that was only when he practically forced Yami's half open a crack. Atemu lifted Yami up, carefully cradling Yami in his arms.
"Hey, you can't move…"Kaiba began to say. Only to stop when Atemu glared at him.
Atemu knew that he was the one responsible for what happened to his precious Anku, but right now he didn't care. He just had to get Yami out of here. Get him somewhere safe where Atemu could nurse him back to health.
Atemu called upon the shadows and the two vanished.
