After 4 hours, Yugi and his friends were still at the hospital, while Bakura was in urgent care. Yugi was free to go, as he was sitting in the lobby with them, waiting. Joey yawned really loud, then sleepily said, "Man guys, it's already like, 10:30 at night. I'm sorry, I would stay, but my mom will kill me if I'm not home by 10:45. See you guys later, and tell Bakura I wish him good health."
Joey got up from his chair and left the hospital, walking home. Tristen then said, "Uh, same here guys." "Yeah, same here.", said Tea. Yugi glanced at both of them.
"So, you guys got to go too?" They both nodded their heads. They waved goodbye, then walked out together and walked home. Yugi, all alone, simply sighed and called his Grandpa to pick him up. "Come on, Grandpa, pick up." No answer.
"Excuse me sir, but is your name Yugi Moto?", Yugi got up from his chair and turned around. He saw the nurse that was helping Bakura. "Yeah, that's my name." "Well, I'm sorry to say this, but your friend Bakura is in a coma." Yugi's heart skipped a beat. "Coma, why!?" "That's the question we've been trying to answer, Yugi. But, you are allowed to see him, and I was about to ask you if you wanted to-" "Yes. Take me to him right away."
The male nurse paused, then did as Yugi asked. When Yugi entered Bakura's hospital room, he was alone with him, since the nurse left them alone. Feeling rather timid, Yugi sat on the chair next to Bakura's bed.
"He's...going to be asleep for a while, I might as well just stay here overnight and watch him.", whispered Yugi to himself. He noticed how softly Bakura was breathing in his sleep, eyes closed gently. "Hmm, at least he's resting peacefully." Now rather sleepy himself, Yugi rested his head against the comfy chair, and fell asleep.
It was still night time. When Yugi had woken everything was blurry, and he felt warm hands lightly gripping his shoulders. His vision slowly became clearer, as he began to see a male figure appearing.
"Mmm, Ba...kura...is that you?" Lightly chuckling, he deceivingly whispered to Yugi, "Yesss...it is. Now, Yugi, would you like to see your future... as a vessel?"
Shock shot through Yugi's blood, as he immediately was controlled by Yami for a short amount of time. "That's right, Yugi is my vessel, and you won't ruin my plans of making that reality!" Yami powerfully kicked Bakura's spirit in the gut, which sent him thrown against the room door.
"Aaarrgh!" Wincing in pain, Yami gripped him by the collar. "If you tell Yugi ANYTHING, you will pay the consequences."
"Ha, like what?" A micro expression of contempt appeared on Yami's face as he replied, "I can strip you of your vessel, and then throw you back into the Shadow Realm." Bakura's spirit gasped," You- you wouldn't!"
Yami gripped him even tighter now, and menacingly said, "Don't push your luck. You say anything to my vessel, you won't be sorry. Keep. Your. Mouth. Shut." He threw him against the wall, which caused him to knock out. "Nothing will stop me from entering my vessel's perfect body."
