Chapter 28: Hit of Light
How could I been so stupid? I trusted her and she literately and metaphorically stabs me in the back. I've been in Duel Academy for a year and when I come back she tricks me and stabs my back with a knife, at an alley. She said that she never loved me and I was only a pawn for her success during middle school. She found someone new during the time I was away. I lay at the alley, with my aching back, thinking why she betrayed me, which hurt me the most than any physical and mental pain. Her. The one who broke my heart. Her, the one who stood what seemed to be forever by my side.
I can still hear her words echoing in my head, "You idiot, you were nothing but a pawn to my success during middle school, I felt nothing for you except pity that you were an illegitimate child!"
A light shines on my face and I wonder, why would there be light at the dead of night, "Yusuke Urameshi."
I wondered, how did this person knew my name, considering that I've never heard this voice before, "You poor boy."
I felt hands on my aching back and next thing I knew my back was as good as new. I got up on my feet and brushed up my Obelisk Blue trench coat. The brightness of the light was to damn powerful for my eyes to look and the light stopped. I turned to see a guy with blue hair and earrings, wearing an Obelisk Blue graduate trench.
"Who the hell are you?"
"My name will be known in time, Mr. Urameshi."
-.-.-.-.-.
Yusuke moaned as he opened his eyes, getting him out of the sense of unconscious. His vision was blurry, "Yusuke, are you okay?"
Yusuke turned his eyes, which was now getting clearly, "Keiko……" he said, as he was grabbed by his girlfriend's arms, "I'm so glad that you're alright," she said
"You almost had us worried."
Yusuke turned to see Kagome at the corner, walking towards him. Yusuke around to see that he was on a bed, in a medical room.
"How was brought here?"
"Joey and Kurama carried you here, after you were unconscious." Kagome replied
Yusuke looked down to see that he was still in Keiko's arms. This was an odd feeling that Yusuke was getting when he was in the brunette's arms, kind of like he can't be comfortable.
"You idiot, you we're a pun in my success during middle school, I felt nothing for you except pity that you were an illegitimate child!"
Yusuke pushed Keiko away from him, remembering from his dream that the sentence that he heard was Keiko's own words. Kagome caught Keiko as she regained her balance after she was pushed back and glared at Yusuke, "Why did you just do that?" she asked, staring Yusuke hard.
Yusuke looked at his cousin with uncertainly and just felt guilty about what he did.
Keiko joined Kagome, glaring at Yusuke, "We were worried about you after that duel with Kaiba and you……."
"I'm sorry," Yusuke interrupted
Keiko raised an eyebrow, "I'm sorry that I pushed you, just had a dream that's all." Yusuke said, knowing that dreams don't mean anything at all in the real life, "What's going on?"
"Well your mom's yelling at Kaiba, if anything happens to you, she'll press charges." Keiko replied
"How long was I out?"
"About three hours," Kagome replied, "Yusuke, what happened?"
Yusuke gave Kagome a puzzled look, "What are you talking about?" he asked
"I meant at the end of the duel with Kaiba."
Yusuke sighed, "Well, after Kaiba's Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon attacked my monster and my life points hitting zero, I felt a wave of light hit me."
Kagome's eyes widened, 'The same thing happened with me,' she thought
Flashback
Kagome was walking from school, with her friends.
"Hey stop!"
The four girls stop and turned to see a fifteen year old girl with long brown hair, tied to a long braid with blue eyes.
"Excuse me, is Kagome Higurashi in that little group of yours." The girl asked
Kagome forward from the group, "I'm her," she said.
"I want to duel you!" she declared
A few moments later Kagome and the girl dueled and it ended with Kagome losing all her life points. She stood there motionless and her cards shooting out of her duel disk, "My cards…….what's going on?" she muttered as she fell forward, rendering unconscious.
End Flashback
Kagome wondered if this is was some kind of déjà vu going on.
"What kind of light?" Keiko asked
Yusuke grimace, "I don't know, but it was something out of the ordinary when I lose a duel." He said
"It happened before," Kagome said, which got Yusuke and Keiko to give the black haired girl an odd look, "What do you mean?" Yusuke asked
"Before I moved here and when I was walking home with my friends, a girl came our way and dueled me. I lost and afterwards, my cards were shot from my Duel Disk and I fell onto the ground, unconscious." Kagome said.
"You mean that the same thing that happened to Yusuke, happened to you?" Keiko asked
"Yeah," Kagome said, "Since then, I've lost duels after duels since then."
"At school when you duel some of the students, you ended up winning."
Kagome shrugged, "Maybe, something got my will to duel again." she said
"Kagome, the time that your cards were shot out of your Duel Disk, did that ever happened again?" Yusuke asked
"No, I had that ever again."
Yusuke gets up from his bed, "Yusuke, are you sure that you should be getting up from bed?" Keiko asked, with concern, "The light that hit you could have side effects," Keiko added
"I'll be fine," Yusuke said, getting his jacket from his bed and placing it on his person. He walked out of his room and as Yusuke got into the waiting room and he turned around a blur of light blue ran past him and tackled him to the ground.
"Yusuke, you're ok, you're ok." Syrus cried as he hugged his best friend tightly.
Yusuke rolled his eyes at this, "Syrus, what the hell are you doing? Get off." he said trying to push his childhood friend off of him, but Syrus wouldn't budge.
"I thought I'd never see you again!" The boy continued. As Yusuke struggled to remove the little blunette off of him, Syrus struggled to keep him self from being removed.
Keiko and Kagome came out of the room and saw Yusuke trying to get Syrus off of him and giggled at this.
"Damn!" Yusuke cursed, "Please Syrus remove yourself from my being." Yusuke said, with a hint of annoyance in his tone.
Syrus quickly got up, allowing Yusuke to stand and suddenly arms came up and wrapped themselves around Yusuke and pulling him into a hug, "My baby!" Atsuko cried, giving her son a hug, "I thought that I lost you again!"
Yusuke was getting annoyed at this, "Mother!" he complained, trying to get out of his mother's arms, "Let go, I'm fine."
"You can't necessarily blame her, Yusuke," Solomon said, "When you got hit by that car, last year, we almost lost you."
Atsuko let's go of Yusuke, as Kaiba came into the room, to Joey's disgust, "Hey Kaiba, stay away from him!" he spat
Kaiba walked pasted Joey, ignoring the blonde's yells of disgust, "Yusuke, are you feeling alright?" he asked
"Yeah," Yusuke said.
Joey got into Kaiba's face, "Hey, you bettea not do anythin' to Yusuke, or else……." Kaiba slammed his hand onto Joey's face, "Beat it, Wheeler."
Joey was pushed by the impact and glared at Kaiba, "That's it!" he roared, as he lunged at Kaiba but Keiko went behind him and wrapped her arms around Joey's waist and Tristan grabbing Joey's arms, restraining the enraged blonde, "Let me go, guys!"
"I'm fine," Yusuke said, "And I'm ready for the apprentice job."
Keiko looked down to the ground, while holding the enraged Joey and knowing that Yusuke will be gone again. She'll miss him, but this time, he'll be safe, but she wondered if the same thing which spot Yusuke's cards out of his Duel Disk, will happen again. Kagome said that it never happened, so she doesn't have anything to worry about, right?
-In the White Room-
"Ah!" Sartorious pulled a The Star card from his Tarot deck, "It appears that Yusuke has a weakness." Sartorious narrowed his eyes, "Maybe it could be handy to make him see the light, along with Kagome."
