Cheeze: Oh my god, I actually finished this early!
Febe: And our shoulders hurt!
Tora: It's so weird, that the doctor don't even know what causes the pain or what it is!
Febe: That's funny thought, the look on their face.
Cheeze: Any who, Joey do the disclaimer!
Joey: All right! Cheeze does not own Yu-Gi-Oh! or the song.
Cheeze: Bakura!
Bakura: -holds the paper- The song is Pet by A Perfect Circle, and Kill All Your Friends by My Chemical Romance.
Cheeze: And Enjoy!
Sleep
"JOEY WHEELER GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE! I WAS WORRIED SICK ABOUT YOU!" Joey's dad yelled. It seems he was sober again and Joey didn't want to go back. "Man you finally sober for the last minute or should I say a week!" Joey said. Lot's of colorful words were form from his dad's mouth and Solomon decided to talked to him. "That's no way to treat your son like that mister!" While they argue, Yugi sat on the stair looking down at Joey. He feel sorry for him and felt guilt for not knowing this. "Man I don't want to go back there again," Joey sighed. Yami went to the store to buy some stuff before the phone started to ring. "I feel sorry for ya Jou," Yugi said. Joey saw him sitting on the stairs. His hair was back to normal, star shaped tri-color. He still wore a black chocker, plain black tank top and blue jeans. "YUGI!" Jou laughed, hugging his friends.
Yugi tried to get out from his grip but he wouldn't let go. "I need air Jou," Yugi gasped. "Sorry buddy," Jou said, dropping him. Yugi took a deep breathe, and decided to got back to his room. "Hey Yug can I join with you?" Joey asked. Yugi nodded, still huffing from his hug. "I think I got weaker," Yugi said. Joey laughed and went to his room. The bed, dresser, desk, everything was still the same. The only thing that was added was the guitar. "So Rebecca gave you this?" Joey asked. Yugi nodded looking in his drawer. "Is she still-""Again I said no to her polity," Yugi finished. Joey hold the all precious tone in his hand, admiring the color and the sound of the string (1). "You seem to be enjoying it," Yugi smiled. Joey blushed as Yugi laughed. "So how do you play this thing?" he asked. "It's a guitar Jou and you don't hold it like that," Yugi smiled. Joey handed Yugi the instrument as he showed him. "It's like this," Yugi said. "I see.... What song do you play?" Joey asked. "Whatever come to my head," Yugi admitted. "So most of the song you sang, played, and wrote are from your head?" Joey asked. Yugi nodded and started playing G before finding the right rhythm.
"That's pretty cool," Joey said. "Do you want to try it?" Yugi asked. "I'm cool. I just don't want to break it," Joey said. Yugi shrugged and continue playing. "What song is this?" Joey asked. "I don't know..." Joey saw his eyes lowering, the smile turn to a frown. A serious look on his face then... "I'm home!" Yami called out. Yugi blinked before putting it down. "Yugi are you okay?" Jou asked. "Yeah. Just made a song again," Yugi replied. A song again? Joey thought. "Joey can you please come down for a moment?" Solomon called. "Yeah," Joey said. "Are you sure your okay?" Yugi only nodded as Joey left. A quick movement, he closed, lock the door and decided to opened the safe.
He knock on the floor, about two before opening the wooden plate (2). Hay bush out rapidly as he search and search. There, he took out a small bag and spilled it out. Something shiny caught his eyes and picked it up. It was his blade, the one that took away the pain. Getting up and going to the restroom (3), he started cleaning the blood off. We can have someone affect by rust now don't we? After finishing cleaning the stain of blood, sharpening the edge, he place it on his smooth skin on his left arm. Slowly, the blood started oozing from his perfect skin as it cut throw. It was his fault, he thought. No, it was their fault, a voice said.
"Hi Joey!" Tea greeted, clinging to Yami. Damn that bitch is back, Joey thought. When everybody thought Anzu is back to normal, just suddenly, she went back to her ugly beast form. "Where is Yugi?" she asked. "Still in the room," he replied. "Still?" Yami asked. "Well, he was out a while ago... Then went back to his room," Joey explained. "You dad said he want to make up with you," Solomon said. "What?" Joey shouted. "He always do this." Yami pushed Anzu off as she pouted. "You don't love me anymore?" she asked. "I never did," he said. Anzu huffed, he knew she will always go back to him. "That's why I called your mom," he said. "My mom?" Joey asked. "Yep. She said she bought apartment not far from us or school already," he said, "Oh," Jou said, speechless. "That remind me. Your mom wanted to see you now at Burger World at 2," he said. Joey ran off with a quick good-bye.
Yugi was rocking himself in the corner, listening to his friends. "Hi Yami," Tristan greeted. Why why why why, Yugi thought repeatedly. Tears were streaming out of his face. He didn't whimper, he was not Yugi. "My name is Yuki," Yugi said. "I don't care about my past. I love music, music is good," Yugi whispered. Looking at the door now he sees everybody going to Yami's room. "Please leave me alone."
"So no progress was made all," Ryou said. Everybody had fail to talk to Yugi. "Hey where is Joey?" Tristan asked. "Went to his mom. Anyway, can you talk to Yugi for us Ryou?" Yami asked. "I'm sorry but even we can talk to him, Yugi won't allow himself to talk to anyone," Ryou apologized. "I never knew you had the guts to kidnapped Yugi pharaoh," Bakura snicker. Oh how badly Yami wanted to punch and kick him sensually. Before the fight started, they heard a song from Yugi's den:
Well you can hide a lot about yourself,
But honey, what're you gonna do?
And you can sleep in a coffin,
But the past ain't through with you.
'Cause we are all a bunch of liars.
Tell me, baby, who do you wanna be?
And we are all about to sell it,
'Cause it's tragic with a capital T.
Let it be, Let it be, Let it be!
'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
It's been eight bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.
Sometimes you scrape and sink so low,
I'm shocked at what you're capable of.
And if this is a coronation,
I ain't feeling the love.
'Cause we are all a bunch of animals
That never paid attention in school.
So tell me all about your problems;
I was killing before killing was cool.
You're so cool, You're so cool, So cool!
'Cause we all wanna party when a funeral ends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
It's been nine bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.
Tristan gasp when Yugi sang the verse, the one that he sang when he was in the bag.
You'll never take me alive.
You'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
'Cause I'm still here.
You'll never get me alive.
You'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
And I'm still here.
You'll never take me alive.
You'll never get me alive.
Do what it takes to survive,
And I'm still here.
You'll never get me.
(Get me!)
You'll never take me.
(Take me!)
You'll never get me alive.
'Cause we all wanna party when a funeral ends.
(Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
It's been ten fucking years since I've been seeing
Your face 'round here.
And you're walking away, and I will drown in the fear.
"We'll try out best," Ryou laughed, seeing the group depress.
Yugi was now lying on the bed. The cut from his arm started bleeding but didn't bother to wash up the stain on his skin. He played the string quietly, just enough to hear what the other's are saying next door. "We'll try out best," Ryou said. Maybe I should talk to him, Yugi thought. But for me to be with you, you must stay away from him. Yami is the one that interfere us, said a voice. I know but why him? The figure smiled sadly and touch his cheeks. My precious angel. He's the one that cause you the pain, which brought me back here. And if I'm feeling better are you going away? No. There was a knock on the door and the shadow disappear. That boy Bakura is interfering! Ignoring what he said, Yugi got up and opened the door. "Ryou?" Yugi asked. "Surprise!" Ryou smiled. Bakura walked in with Ryou when Yugi gave them room. "What are you doing here?" Yugi asked. "Just here to talk," Ryou said.
"Talk about what?" Yugi asked. Bakura pointed at the wall and Yugi nodded. "I have something so important to tell you Ryou," Yugi said, loud enough for them to hear. Yami and the others held the cup to the wall with their hears press against it, wanting to hear what Yugi have to say. "What is it Yugi?" Ryou said, covering his hear as Bakura did. Yugi put the speaker to the wall and a guitar on his hand. "It's very important and you must not tell the other," Yugi said. "I'm listening," Bakura said. Just when they thought they had him. Yugi swiftly move his finger down the string. The sound blasted through the wall full volume, that Yami and the others fell backward. Heard the crashing noise and muttering, Yugi and Bakura laughed (4). "Now that's out of the way," Yugi sighed. "How is Katy and Set doing?" Yugi asked. "Katy is still looking for you and... hold on," Ryou said, taking out his cell phone. "Where's your?" Bakura asked. "I dropped it when Tristan and Jou put me in a bag," Yugi said. "They put you in a bag. Man what an old school," Bakura laughed. "Yugi, Katy want to speak to you," Ryou said.
Yugi press the button 'speaker' and set it down on the bed. "Hello?" Yugi sang. "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN DARLING? I WAS SEARCHING FOR YOU ALL DAY! I CRIED WHEN YOU DIDN'T CAME!" Katy cried. Yugi smiled, it was so good to hear her melody voice. "I'm fine Katy don't worry," Yugi said. "Oh brother I got lazy," Katy sighed. "Where are you?" Yugi sighed. "I'm at the Kame Game Shop," Yugi said. "YOUR AT WHERE? I THOUGHT YOUR NEVER EVER NEVER EVER COMING BACK! WHAT THE HELL?" Katy screamed. "Its ever Katy. Anyway, I'm not sure how long I'm staying," Yugi said. "Oh poo, and here Frankie dear came all the way from America to see you," Katy whined. "Wait is Frank there?" Yugi asked. "Not yet, but he will be soon. Ah man they are going to kill me if they don't see you here in my care," Katy whimpered. "It's okay. I'll try and... Who am I kidding, I got nothing," Yugi sighed. "We can help," Katy said. "No thanks. I don't want to finish the pill anyway. Especially the one were you have to take three and it's blue," Yugi explained. "But you needed! The doctor and therapist said it will help you take away those suicidal thoughts, suicide, and the voice in your heard that claim to have you!" Katy said. "Katy hush!" Yugi said. "Voices," Bakura said. "Yeah, some voice came to company me," Yugi explained. "And had said that he has been around since I was little." Bakura thought about this carefully. "Is it Atem?" Bakura asked. "I'm not sure. I can't recalled," Yugi said. "And that's why you need those pills!" Katy said. "No," Yugi huffed. "Fine then, see if I care if you die!" Katy screamed, hanging up. "Uh-" Yugi counted down to five, then. "Yugi are you there? I'm so sorry for shouting at you! I didn't mean to! Please forgive me!" Katy whined. Bakura stared at the phone weirdly as much as Ryou. "I'm okay," Yugi smiled. "Okay, well I have to go now. Need to tame Seto, bye!" Katy finally hung up.
"Katy always changes her mind," Yugi explained. "Okay," Bakura said. "Well now that is clear, I'm going to see if Yami and the others are alright," Ryou said, getting up. "I smell blood," Bakura said, sniffing the air (5). Yugi tried to cover his arm with the blanket but Ryou saw this. "Yugi!" Ryou cried. "What?" Yugi asked. "Why did you do this?" Bakura growled, showing him his bleeding arm. "It stop a while ago. I forgot the clean it though," Yugi said. Bakura went to the bathroom and can out with a damp cloth. "What's that weird smell?" Ryou asked. "Something that can keep Yugi clean," he smirked. Yugi jumped up and ran around the room. "Don't come near me bastard!" Yugi cried. "It's for your own good!" Bakura laughed. Finally Ryou stop Yugi and Bakura quickly clean it. The burn and sting of the damp liquid soak into the skin and the cut. "Owe!" Yugi cried. "Alcohol," Ryou whispered. Having a bandage on him, thanks to Ryou, Yugi couldn't feel his arm. "There no more cutting," Ryou said. "Promise?" Yugi sighed and hold his pinky up. "If you stop too," Yugi whispered back. Ryou gulped and took his pinky. "Pinky swear?""Pinky swear," Yugi replied. Ryou got up as Bakura clean out the blood that was on his hand. "Well, we'll see ya," Ryou said. "Bye!" Yugi waved with this right. "And I'll be taking this," Bakura smirking, showing him the blade. "Hey, give that back!" Yugi cried. "It was nice visiting you," Bakura waved. "See ya!" Yugi huffed as they left. Well, at least they care for him.
Everybody left after waking up from the explosive and crashing into the coffee table. "See ya Yami," Tristan said. Yami waved as Anzu tried to kiss him. "Get off Anzu!" Yami growled. She huffed and walked away only to blow kiss... YUGI?! Watching Anzu to Yugi, he close the curtains as Anzu gasped. Yami giggled and close the door before Anzu could turn to him. "Ji-san where Joey?" Yami asked. "At his new home. They got started already and he said he'll visit tomorrow," Solomon said. Yami nodded. "We it's time for dinner," he said walking up. "Where are you going?" Yami asked. "I'm going to get Yugi of course," he smiled. I hope he comes down, Yami thought.
Surprisingly, Yugi came down but ignore Yami. He only spoke to him like 'pass me the salt'. It wasn't pleasant but at least he could see him. "Yugi aren't you going to eat some more?" Solomon asked. "I'm use to this. But the cooking good Yami," Yugi smiled. Yami blushed and muttered, Yugi understand it. "You see, Yugi was watching you cook!" Solomon smiled.
Yugi jumped onto bed after he dress in his pj. Same as before, silky black shirt and pants with white wings on his back and chain hook around his body. "I'm a fallen angel. But soon I'm going to fly again," Yugi smiled, before falling into a deep sleep.
Yami moaned and turn in his bed. What could be troubling the oh mighty pharaoh? "Yugi where are you?" Yami shouted. Yugi laid on the floor as he looked up to him. "Yugi!" Yami screamed, running towards him. "Yami," Yugi cried. He saw chains on his neck, wrist, and his ankles. There was no lock but hook to the ground. "Don't worry I'm going to get you out of here," Yami said, trying to break the chain. "Oh no you can Pharaoh," said a voice, taking Yugi in his arms. "What the- Who are you?" Yami yelled. "Yami?" Yugi cried, as he disappear into the shadow. "Yugi!" Yami screamed. "No use. He is mine," he laughed. "Who are you?" Yami asked. "I am Yugi's new Yami. The one that will always be and protect him," he laughed, disappearing too. Seeing Yugi crying, screaming in pain was too much for Yami. Especially when he saw blood pouring out of Yugi's eyes. "YUGI!"
Yami jumped up, huffing with sweat, looking around rapidly. He was in his room again. He sighed and laid back on his cool sheets. The moonlight shone on the poster that was on the wall right across him. It was Yugi, or Yuki, smiling proudly with music note in the background. Afraid to go back to sleep, he went to the room next door. Seeing the door unlock, Yami allowed himself to walked in to see his aibou sleeping. Wanted to sleep by him, he decided to sleep on the corner of the bed. Watching him sleep calm him down before darkness over took him.
Yugi woke up, feeling something on the corner of his bed. He opened his eyes to see Yami sleeping... wait YAMI?! Panic with his heart beating fast, Yugi slight jumped at the sight before him. Looking around, seeing the door open, he guess that he forgot to lock it. Now that Yami is in here, there's no use for him to get out. "Yami?" Yugi slightly shook him. Half-asleep Yami opened his eyes and stared at Yugi. "Yugi," he yawned. Not wanting to alarm him, Yugi quickly guide him to his bed. Yami drag himself to the comfortable bed with his head on Yugi's lap. "I miss you aibou," Yami cried, wrapping his arms around him (6). "It's okay Yami," Yugi repeated, whispering into his ears. Something must have disturb him cause he could feel Yami trying to sleep. Yugi decided to sing a song which he thinks is a lullaby.
Don't fret precious I'm here, step away from the window
Go back to sleep
Yugi could feel Yami finally got to his postion, which was embaressing, but Yugi kept on singing softly.
Lay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman come
Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums
Pay no mind to the rabble
Pay no mind to the rabble
Head down, go to sleep
To the rhythm of the war drums
Yami heard a soft voice. Was it Yugi? He hope so, he loves him so much...
Pay no mind what other voices say
They don't care about you, like I do, like I do
Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils,
See, they don't give a fuck about you, like I do.
Just stay with me, safe and ignorant,
Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep
Yami could feel himself safe. Now he can go to sleep in peace, knowing Yugi is there to help him, protect him from the nightmare.
Lay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman come
Count the bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums
Pay no mind to the rabble
Pay no mind to the rabble
Head down, go to sleep to the rhythm of the war drums
Yugi kept on singing, removing Yami's bang out from his face.
I'll be the one to protect you from
Your enemies and all your demons
I'll be the one to protect you from
A will to survive and a voice of reason
I'll be the one to protect you from
Your enemies and your choices son
They're one in the same
I must isolate you
Isolate and save you from yourself
Swayin to the rhythm of the new world order and
Count the bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums
But who is going to save Yugi if he is saving Yami and the others?
The boogeymen are coming
The boogeymen are coming
Keep your head down, go to sleep, to the rhythm of a war drums
Stay with me
Safe and ignorant
Just stay with me
Hold you and protect you from the other ones
The evil ones
Don't love you son,
Go back to sleep
Solomon walked down the hallway. Who was singing a lullaby? Checking in Yami's room, he found nothing. "Yami?" he whispered. Nothing, did something happen? Check to Yugi's room, he found something very surprising. Yugi was asleep, protected by Yami, who is beside him, sleeping peacefully. He never saw both of their smiles like that in a long time. "Good night," he whispered, closing the door.
