XXXIV. Spirit of Fate

With Hercules leading the way, Sora and Yugi passed through several doors. Most of the gods and goddesses didn't mind when Zeus' son pass by but as for the two of them well they didn't care. The Keyblade master never felt peaceful before and Yugi felt that he was protected. Suddenly, they came to a stop and Hercules wore a sad frown on his face. In front of them was a man wearing a black toga, pale blue skin, a blue flame for his 'hair' and shadows were following him everywhere.

"Hades... what are you doing here?" he asked, growled, feeling that he had to tear him from limb to limb. Sora saw him as well and pointed the Keyblade automatically to his neck.

"Hey, is that what I get by saying hello!" Hades replied with humor on his face, lowering Sora's weapon with his finger then he poof himself away from them and went in front of Yugi.

"So this is the boy who got um...fused with the what was it called? Heartless! Yeah!" Hades chuckled as he touched his fingers on Yugi's chin. "Boy, this is fun but I got to go!". With that, he poof himself and disappeared.

"I wouldn't trust that big guy. He's the god of the underworld and might do anything 'negociable'," Hercules said.

"Yeah, I agree but I can't believe he has the nerve to come here!" Sora growled. "Let's move on."

They continued their way and finally they came to a stop. A door was revealed in front of them and Hercules went to Yugi.

"This is the Spirit Door where people are born with magic. You will enter alone from here. Be careful!" Hercules said as he opened the door. Yugi just breathed and went inside.

"I hope that he'll be okay." Sora said.

"Don't worry, he'll be fine. Anyway, we'll just wait here till he comes back." Hercules said. "So what do you want to do?"

"Ummmm...wanna play truth or dare?" Sora asked and Hercules grinned.

Inside the spirit door, everything was filled with darkness. Yugi has no idea where he was going and he feels that he was walking for hours with endless naught. Light began to emanate as the spiky-haired teen went forward until he came to a some sort of castle or whatever it is. He went inside the castle and to his surprise, there were several people in there and what surprised him the most is they seemed to bowed at him as if he was from royalty but is he then?

Yugi continued his way and later he came came across some kind of a large door. He opened it and to his surprised, he saw someone. It was the same woman he saw back there when his body was sucked into the darkness but the only difference is she was with a man. He has similar hairstyle as Yugi had, a combination of red and black with lightning yellow bangs. The only exception was his eyes...his eyes was silver. The same color he had when he was using unknown magic and of course he had a silver crown on his forehead.

"Mom! Dad!" Yugi said, feeling choked all over. Suddenly, the couple stared at the new voice and happiness were on their faces as they hugged their son. Yugi accepted the hug or so he thinks. Suddenly, the emotion seal began to act itself and the spiky-haired boy pushed his parents back so that he wouldn't hurt them. Yugi was on his knees clutching the pain.

"Oh dear, are you alright?" his mother asked and the spiky-haired teen got up as the pain finally settled down. He just simply nodded.

"Before I forget, could you tell me how to get rid of this???" Yugi asked as he pointed the seal on his neck. His parents took a look on it and noticed that it has a crack on it. They looked at each other and frowned.

"Unfortunately, there's no spell that can remove it," his father replied and Yugi felt disappointment on his face.

"But there is another way, if a person gives love to you and you give love to that person in return. The seal will break and your full powers will be released." his mother continued her husband's sentence. Yugi scratched his head sheepishly and thought about it but it would be better if he would find out for himself..

"Um. mom, what is love anyway...I don't understand?????" Yugi asked as questions began to fill his head. His parents chuckled and touch their son's hand then they sat down.

"Well, to start with, love is like when you care for someone deep down like when I meet your mother for the first time...I say it was kinda stupid..." his father said sheepishly. Yugi rolled his eyes in confusion but his mom had to 'smack' her husband's face.

"Whatttt!!!" he whined. "It's true!"

"Don't listen to your father, he's such an akward person!" his mother said but the husband wouldn't had it.

"Do not!" he retorted.

"Do to!" she countered.

Do not!" he retorted again.

Do to times two!!" she countered again.

"Oh yeah, do not times a hundred!" he retorted yet again.

"Do to times infinity!" she countered and the husband had to give up. "I win again!". Yugi suddenly sweatdropped at them.

"Well if you don't understand, it's better if you find out for yourself dear." she said to him and Yugi simply nodded his head then to his surprise, his mother touched the seal and muttered a spell that was unknown to his knowledge. At forst, there was a soft glow then it settled down. Yugi wondered what did his mother cast.

"Curious? The spell I did was a temporary hold on the power of the emotion seal. It'll dissipate when you leave the continent and by the way, don't tell your friends about this just tell them for now that there's no spell to break it and until you learned your heritage." she said.

"What heritage?" Yugi asked.

"Go back to the Solarian Continent and find the Ethrealian Continent. There you will find your answers," his father replied. "Now go and it seems that you friends are waiting outside the Spirit Gate and oh just tell your friends only about the emotion seal!."

With a wave of his hand, Yugi suddenly teleported himself back where he was before he went through. He opened the door and saw that Hercules was laughing head over heels. Sora on the other hand, pouted and scowled at his friend. Of course, he has no idea what was going on.

"What are you guys doing?" Yugi asked skeptically as the Keyblade Master just notied that he was back.

"So how did it go?" Hercules asked.

It's okay," Yugi replied, shrugging.

"Did your parents say anything about the emotion seal?" Sora asked and Yugi nodded but he told the Keyblade Master that he would rather let everyone to hear this. So the three of them decided to go back to the castle and let everyone hear this. Sora thanked his friend and his father then went to the same portal in the Olympus Coliseum. Unfortunately, Yugi hasn't got used to travel dimension and he felt a bit sick.

"Man, going through other portals is a sick to my chest!" Yugi said, nearly barfing himself. Sora apologized and after a slight barfing, they went back to the throne room and luckily, Riku and the others were back except now that Kaiba has two shopping bags. The two of them sweatdropped and wondered what did the blue-eyed teen just got.

"Um, what did he ..?????" Sora asked.

"He bought himself some weapons that he can upgrade his 'gunblade' and some technology stuff that I don't understand!!!." Riku whined and Yami giggled. Turns out that Riku had lost his patience.

Flashback:

"Come on, Kaiba, we better get back to the castle. Those two might be back from now!" Riku said as the blue-eyed teen was selecting what he want to buy. Yami just stood there and watch. About and hour has passed and Riku was circling around the ground.

"Circling around won't help you know!" Yami said, frowning.

"I KNOW NOW PLEASE TELL HIM THAT WE SHOULD GO BACK NOW!!!" Riku shouted and at the same time, Kaiba just came out just in time to hear what was Riku yelling about.

"You should have been more patient!" Kaiba stated and all three of them went back to the castle with Riku mumbling himself in embrassment.

End Flashback

"Well, this is amusing and all but we better hear from Yugi about the emotion seal." Sora stated in a serious tone but actually laughing inside.

"Well, there's good news and bad news," Yugi said as he begun.

"Wait! I want to hear the bad news." Riku said and the spiky-haired teen sighed.

"The bad news is there's no spell to break that seal." Yugi said, frowning and everyone were disappointed.

"And the good news?" Yami asked.

"My mom placed a temporary hold on the power of the emotion seal so basically I'm able to express positive emotions 'temporarily'. The effect will wore off when I leave this continent." Yugi replied then he remembered something the reason he came here.

"Oh yeah, before I forget, can you guys help me on one favor?" Yugi asked.

"What?" Sora asked.

"I want to go back to the Solarian Continent. I don't belong here, Yugi replied simply and to his surprise, Riku and Sora understood what he was feeling.

"Hmmm...I see well, I'll tell His majesty about this and for the meantime, you guys can enjoy your stay and by the way, your just in time for the Festival of the Lights." Sora said. Little did they know that the Lord of the Underworld, Hades knew about what they were talking about.

"Hmmm, I see so...let's see here how am I going to make a deal with him????" Hades said, trying to think then it hit him. "Oh I know what to do...this will intrigued him a lot."

Yugi decided to roam around the castle while Riku had to lead Kaiba to Cid, whose specialty was technology systems. Sora has to tell the King and Yami was taking a break somewhere. It was slightly different back at the Lunar Castle and wonders never cease. He kept walking until he came across a rose labyrinth. Deciding to exercise his mind, he went in and of course, he was able to find some kind of dome-shaped house. It was small but it had a bench on it so Yugi decided to sit down and look either at the sky or the roses.

"This is the best place ever!" Yugi said to himself.

"Well, I never thought you would find this place!" said a familiar voice. The spiky-haired teen stared at the voice and turns out that it was Yami who apparently amused.

"What's so amusing about?" Yugi asked.

"Nothing, actually and by the way, how did you find this place?" Yami replied then asked him.

"I just passed it by then decided to relax my mind then I ended up here." Yugi said then the prince sat beside him. Feeling anxious all over, he didn't know what to say.

"I see then," Yami said. "Tell me, Yugi, what was your mother like?"

Yugi was a bit startled at his question then he sunk to his thoughts then he answered: "I guess she's nice and protetive plus she cares about me. Why do you ask?"

"Your lucky that you get to know a little bit of your mom. Actually, about the Festival of the Lights...is my mom's death! The day I nearly refused the power of light!" Yami said. Yugi suddenly frowned and didn't know what to say but he decided to wait and see.

"Ever since that day, I became distant and that's where my attitudes has changed but ever since I met you and gained new friends, I felt that I have more than just a family. Okay so maybe a little quiet but hey, it's better than nothing!" the prince continued as he was getting a bit nervous.

Yami was getting a bit nervous. Sure that he knew that Yugi would be able to express positive emotions temporarily but it might be his only chance to telll how he feels about him. Swallowing a lump on his throat, he cleared his voice.

"Yugi, there's something I have to tell you and it's been bugging me a long time..." Yami said.

"Uh, what is it???" Yugi asked, feeling nervous all over his body.

"That I...um...um...I'm sorry to do THIS!!!" Yami said as he kissed the boy's mouth. Yugi was shocked at first and the emotion seal began to cackle electric sparks but since his mom placed a temporary hold on the seal's power, it didn't affect him that very much. He assured that whatever she did must have placed a powerful hold spell. The spiky-haired teen closed his eyes and this time he accepted it unlike when the prince gave him a lovebite. They broke the kiss leaving Yugi with a slight red on his face.

"Sorry about that, I'm not good expressing in words." Yami said, apologizing but Yugi shook his head.

"It's okay," Yugi said assuring the prince when suddenly Sora popped out from the rose labyrinth.

"Hey guys, what are you doing?" Sora said, grinning as he saw the two teens went red but unfortunately Yugi had a bludging vein on his head showing that he's really angry.

"SORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!COME BACK HERE!!!" Yugi yelled angrily.

"Uh, I suggest you run!" Yami said coolly and the Keyblade Master gulped running on his heels with Yugi chasing him on the way out.

- - -

"Aw, come on what did I do?" Sora whined as Yugi kept blasting him with his Fire Spell attack. The two of them were back in the castle and it seems that the spiky-haired teen tried to fry him.

"COME BACK HERE!!!" Yugi yelled when Riku came out from hid room and saw that Sora was been chased by Yugi. Yami on the other hand told him everything and he chuckled.

"Riku, HELP ME!" Sora yelled as the violet-eyed teen kept trying to blast Sora. While he was doing that, Magician Valkyria appeared and Yami recognized her.

"It looks like Master is having fun!" she chuckled and Riku was surprised to see her.

"Hey, Yami is she????" Riku asked and Yami nodded.

"For the past seven years, he never had any fun and happy. Thanks to the temporary hold that is..." Valkyria grinned as Yugi finally hit Sora with his spell.

"OOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!" Sora yelled as his uh 'pants' were on fire and everyone laughed.
