I smiled at him and nodded
"Let's hope." We all then set off running, we ran all the to the arcade and we were all out of breath when we walked into the place "We need, we need to find the, the DDR dance machine." Everyone nodded before we all caught out breath
"I'll check the security footage." Seto commented, I nodded to him as he walked off to the security team
"I think it would be best if we split up to look for that damn machine." Atem nodded a long with Marik and Bakura, before we all walked in different directions to search the arcade.
Atem's POV
After about five minutes off looking I heard Bakura call out
"Hey guys, it's over here!" I ran to where his voice came from to find everyone there already, is there a clue on there?" Yami shook his head
"No, I'm guessing we have to dance to get the clue." I nodded
"So, who wants to dance?" then Seto, Bakura, Marik and I all yelled "not it!" leaving Yami to be the one to dance. He huffed and took a token from Seto, who I guess had gotten the tokens while checking the footage
"So who wants to dance with me?" Yami asked
"No thanks." The three of us responded, when someone else stepped out and said "I do." We all turned to the source of the voice and saw someone I don't know, and I looked like Bakura, Marik nor Seto knew either, but by the look on Yami's face he does know him
"Johnny steps, it's been a long time, last time I saw you, you lost a duel to me."
"What you did was unfair, how was I suppose to know that you're the king of games?" Johnny responded
"So, you two know each other?"
"Not very well, Yugi set me and Téa up on a date one time and he interrupted it challenging Téa to a dance competition on a DDR dance machine, when he lost he challenged her again but this time I stepped in saying I would challenge in to a duel in duel monsters, for him to leave us alone for the day, why do you want to dance against me?" Yami asked him
"Revenge, oh and that Téa chick paid me to dance against you, she even paid for my flight here." Johnny responded
"Uh huh, right, well have fun you two, we'll be over here." I pointed to a booth just a little way down the isle
"Oh no you don't you four are staying to make sure he doesn't cheat." Yami said, as he grabbed my arm to stop me from walking away
"Does he cheat a lot?"
Yami responded "Yes."
While Johnny responded "No."
"Right okay we'll stay, just get on with it." And with that they started dancing. Three rounds later they were still dancing and we were growing board, that was until Johnny tripped and fell over, effectively ending the game, making Yami the winner
"Way to go Yami." Marik said as he stepped down from the machine
"Thanks guys, but I'm really tired now." Yami said sitting down on the end of the machine dance floor, as Johnny got down from the machine and handed Yami an envelope
"I hope you find your friend." Johnny said before walking off
"What no goodbye?"
"Shut up Atemu." Yami said
Yami's POV
I opened the envelope that Johnny gave me to find it was another picture of Yugi, he was tied to a chair on a platform, with lit torches behind him
"Wait a minute, I think I know where Yugi is." I stood up but have to quickly sit down as the link slammed open
(Yami! I'm in my tomb! Things are different though, things have been taken Yami, please come get me, I'm hanging Yami!)
((Yugi calm down what do you mean hanging?))
(I'm on the edge of the platform that holds Prince Yugi's coffin, there is only a single piece of robe holding me up, and it's starting to snap, please hurry)
((Don't worry Yugi, Atemu and I are on our way))
"Atemu, we have to go now, Yugi is in prince Yugi's tomb he is hanging on the edge of the platform and the rope holding him up is going to snap." He nodded
"There is a way out back that leads straight up to the pyramids, you should take that way out, we'll go to the view point and keep Téa and Ushio there." Seto said
"Thanks Seto, I owe you one."
"Just get Yugi safe." I nodded then Atemu and I ran out the back exits, towards the pyramids that were in view.
(Yami! The ropes snapping)
((We're almost there Yugi, I promise))
We soon arrived at the pyramid of prince Yugi. I ran straight inside ignoring Atem's calls for me to stop, but I didn't, I kept running to get to Yugi, my shadow magic disabling the traps, as I heard Atem run after me. We finally made it to prince Yugi's resting place and stopped at the sight in front of me. Yugi hanging off the ledge the rope snapping
(Yami!) Yugi's call snapped me out of my trance, Atem and I ran over to him and grabbed the chair he was on just as the rope snapped. We pulled Yugi to safety and untied him, before I pulled him into my arms in a hug
"Yami I was so scared."
"I know you were, I could feel it, I'm so sorry Yugi, I should have thought with you saying someone following us, I should have come with you, I'm so sorry."
"It's okay Yami, it wasn't my fault, I didn't think about it either, but Téa and Ushio have disturbed Prince Yugi's resting place, they've removed some items, I don't know what they were but I know are gone."
(A/N: [] this means Prince Yugi speaking)
[Indeed they are] the three of turned at the sound of the other voice, and my eyes widened at the spirit form of Prince Yugi
"Prince Yugi." Atemu and I said at the same time causing the prince to chuckle
[hello to you both, and hello to my descendent, whose name also happens to be Yugi.]
"Yes it is, though it is nice to meet you." Yugi said to the prince who nodded
[Likewise, Yugi, but you are correct about things being removed from my resting place, I cannot tell you what they are, but Yami may be able to]
"Prince Yugi, it's been 5000 years. But I still know your tomb like I know the back of my hand." The prince chuckled
[I have no doubt, it's good to see you again Yami, I'm happy you moved on, even if he does look like me and have my memories, I'm still happy for you] I nodded at him
"Thank you, but I have a question, were you in the tomb the other day when Yugi and I were here?" the prince nodded
[I was, I wanted to see who had entered my resting place, when I saw it was the two of you I knew you would not disturbed anything, though I would not have minded, I saw that Yugi had remembered some of our past while looking at the stand of jewellery over there]
"Which piece were you looking at Yugi?"
"The necklace, by the crown." Yugi said pointing towards the small crown. I walked over to the crown and saw the necklace laid next to it
"I remember giving you this."
[Indeed, you gave it to me for my birthday, and then you avoided me for a while, and I never knew why, you never explained to me] I chuckled
"I remember, and you know why I did it, I can see it on your face Prince Yugi." He chuckled
[You need to get out of here, and find my items, please find them so I can rest peacefully]
"Will you not come with us?" Atem asked, the prince shook his head
[I cannot, I am bound to this tomb, I cannot leave otherwise I would come with you]
"Wait a minute, you were wearing this necklace the day you died right?" the prince nodded "Maybe you are bound to this necklace."
[We could try] I tried to pick up the necklace but it shocked me causing me to yelp
"Yami! Are you alright?" Yugi asked coming over to me
"Yeah, I'm fine, but the necklace shocked me, I can't pick it up."
"Let me try." Atem said before trying to pick it up, only to get shocked himself and yelped "I can't pick it up either."
"Let me try." Yugi said before going to pick it up
"Yugi no!" but it was already too late, he had picked up the necklace "It didn't shock you."
"No, I guess it didn't." He responded
[But you were right Yami, my spirit is linked to that necklace, if you take it with you, I'll be able to follow you.]
"Great, you can help us then." Atem responded
[Put the necklace on Yugi.]
