"He's not a human being! I don't like him!" Ryou frantically screamed at Yugi who was wholly taken back by Ryou's proclamation.
"Calm down, Ryou!" Yugi tried to help relax his friend. Ryou looked like he could pass out soon and he didn't want that. "How does he know Bakura is a monster?" Yugi wondered and then he remembered Ryou could feel spiritual thing, yeah that's right, his friend has a strong sense of others auras.
Ryou shivered slightly when he noticed Bakura's curious gazes was on him. Bakura laid his arms on Yugi's shoulder, "You're kidding right?" Bakura chuckled at the confuse Ryou, "What kind of game is this?"
Ryou frowned, "I'm not kidding."
A small smirk formed on Bakura's face, "Anyway, you said I was not a human being, huh? For example...am I a monster? It's impossible for monsters to exist in this world." Bakura explained and Yugi knew where his friend was heading so he nodded his head along.
"Yeah he's right Ryou, you think it too seriously."
"But..." Ryou nervously glance at Bakura who return a nice warm smile back. Ryou suddenly whips out a cross out of his bag, "DON'T COME CLOSE TO ME! DEVIL!" Ryou screeched at Bakura who look utterly speechless and stun. Ryou grabbed Yugi's hand and sprinted off, "Let' get out of here now, Yugi!"
"Where are we going to?" Yugi asked but received no reply, letting his friend dragging him away,
"HEY YUGI!" Yugi could hear Bakura's voice.
Oh crap, he forgot about Bakura, "Hey you see, I gotta go now. Thanks for seeing me to here! See Ya!" Yugi called out.
Yugi arrived at Ryou's house which also happens to be a church. "We are safe now. A devil will never be able to come in to my house." Ryou replied with a grin.
"I told you that Bakura is not a devil..." Yugi spoke up.
"YES HE IS...! I know that weird aura of his is not human." Ryou snapped his face looked determine and fierce.
Yugi had sweats falling down his face, "I see..." Yugi suddenly gulped when he realises he was also a half-monster. "What if Ryou knows about this...? Will he get scared of me too...?"
A pair of pale hand waved in front of his face, "What's wrong with you?" Ryou asked concernedly trying to snap Yugi out of his dreaming state.
"Above all, why doesn't he realise by now? Maybe it's because I am just a half monster?" Yugi thought feeling relaxed a bit. The door to the lounge room was slide opened.
"Hey Yugi!" Ryou's mother greeted the small boy.
Yugi bowed his head in respect, "Nice to meet you aunty, uncle."
"Mom, can he stay here tonight?" Ryou asked his mother and Yugi was shocked on Ryou's suggestion.
"What?"
Ryou ignored his friend outburst, "We found a weird man outside before-..."
"Of course Yuigi can stay for tonight. It's pretty dangerous to go home alone. You haven't had a dinner yet, right?" Ryou's mother asked nicely to Yugi.
Yugi's eyed widen, "I don't wanna bother you..."
Ryou's mother giggled, "It's ok. Ryou has been missing you because you decided to go to a school far away."
"Hey, stop it, mom!" Ryou pouted and dragged Yugi away, "Yugi, come to my room!" Ryou tried to hide his embarrass and flush face. Yugi smiled, he really did wanted to go to the same school as Ryou but too bad he failed the entrance exam.
During night...
"Yugi...?" Yugi could hear Ryou's whispering. He turned his body around in his sleeping bag to face Ryou, "Are you still awake?" Ryou asked.
"Yeah...I'm a bit nervous because I haven't been part of the human world in a while..." Ryou stared weirdly at Yugi who quickly corrected his statement, "Ah...I mean...outside school!" Yugi uneasily chuckled.
Ryou looked at Yugi, "Hey, seems like its hard being in a boarding school...eh? Are you stressed out?"
Yugi giggled shaking his head, "Not at all! We have lots of gardens there. Nice meal..." He drooled at the thought of food, "All my friends and teachers are fun too." He smiled thinking about Joey, Kaiba, Serenity, Mai and the S.M union students.
"I see..." Ryou replied his gaze hasn't left his friend's face, "Hey...I'm wondering do you have something on your mind?" He had a knowing sly grin on his face.
A blush crept on Yugi's face, "NO...!
Ryou laughed, "What is he like?" Both Yugi and Ryou knew they were both into guys and none of their other friends knew about this sexuality.
"He is like..." Yugi blushed as a image of the perfect, loving, handsome Yami formed in his mind and all a sudden the moment of Yami and Anzu acting all lovey dovey together clashes the image of the perfect Yami, "He is a son of a bitch...!" Yugi replied feeling all piss off. Ryou blinked his large brown innocent eyes and smile nervously at his friend. Yugi snapped out of his anger mood, "By the way, how have you been? Do you have a boyfriend?" He was feeling cheerful again and wanted to know how his best friend was doing.
"No...all the guys at my school are wankers..." Ryou replied in depressed.
"I see..." Yugi didn't expect to hear this.
"Lots of people gather in the school from various areas and I only know a few people...in junior high I have a lot of friends because they were all from my neighbourhood..."Ryou sighed, "It's getting tough to keep up with my studies...if you were with me, I guess I could have fun."
Yugi looked at his friend with sympathy.
"I never imagined that you would fail the exam though..." Ryou sighed getting straight to the point.
"I'm sorry!" Yugi apologised and then he smiled, "Hey, let's have fun while I'm here."
Ryou scratched his head, "How about your school?"
Yugi looked out the window, "I guess...I'll never go back to school..." He replied.
S.M School...
"WE CAN'T FIND HIM, YAMI!" Joey shouted as he and other students rushed through the office.
"I see..."
Rex looked at the map in his hands, "We have finished searching all the surrounding areas."
Tristan rubbed his forehead, "After having to search like this, we still couldn't find him...it means...I'm afraid..."
"He got out from the school area." Yami finished off.
Kaiba had a finger under his chin with a thoughtful expression on his face, "But we have a strong barrier around this school to get out of here..."
Joey nodded his head, "Yeah. It's impossible to get beyond the barrier without permission from teacher."
"I guess he can break the barrier." Yami replied.
Serenity and Mai walked in the room, "No wonder he can because he have broken the barrier called 'impossible!' before. He is the white crow anyway." Serenity reminded everyone in the room, the time when Yugi walked out of her strong barrier.
"We gotta find him soon." Mai said looking worriedly, "There are lots of guys seeking the feather of the white crow outside the barrier." She explained and making her way out of the room, "I will ask the teacher to issue permission card as soon as possible."
"Please do so." Yami called out to Mai.
Teacher's room...
"Sorry, I cannot issue it now." Kamako sensei said.
"WHY?" Everyone questioned clearly confuse.
"You always issue the card so easily for shopping or something like that!" Joey frowned.
Pegasus cleared his throat, "As long as it is a place managed by the monster world, it's easy. But if we send our student to other areas, especially areas near the human world, we have to submit an application one week before and get the approval of the management committee."
Mai glared at him, "It's urgent!"
"DON'T YOU CARE ABOUT YUGI?" Serenity screamed at him, her eyes were going to popped out in anger.
"Ah...I mean..."
"I understand. Let's go guys." Yami spoke up and making his way out of the office.
Joey and Serenity's eyes and jaw widen, "WHY DO YOU GIVE UP SO EASILY?" Joey cried out unbelievably.
"YOU HAVE TO TRY HARDER!" Serenity encouraged.
Yami shook his head, "As long as the committee is involved in this matter, it's impossible. Anyway I have another idea." Yami smirked and everyone looked at each other wondering what was Yami's big idea.
When Yami walked out of the teacher's room, he was confused to see Anzu standing outside. He gave her a questioning gaze, "I have something to tell you." Anzu begin and Yami looked away.
"Later."
"About Yugi..." Yami stopped in his track and glance at Anzu curiously, "Please...please forget about Yugi." She pleaded with teary eyes. Yami turned away from her and begins to walk away, "BROTHER! Listen to me! I'm sure I love you more than anybody. I'll be a good wife. I'll never bother you. And it's natural for us to be a couple." Anzu explained in a desperate tone.
Yami angrily turned around glaring at her, "STOP IT, ANZU!"
Black wings sprouted out Anzu's back as she coldly and furiously looked at Yami in the eyes and held her hand in front of his face. Yami's friends gasped.
"YAMI!"
"YAMI! ARE YOU OKAY?"
Yami stood there like in a trance, "How dare you behave like this...so erasing the memory of Yugi from your mind, is easy..." Anzu declared and Yami's eyes slowly closed falling down to the lap of Anzu.
"Bye Yami, I won't return to your side anymore..." Yugi thought slowly closing his eyes, a tear fell ran across his cheek, "Yami..."
