Note To Fans: Hey! Thought I'd give you all some time to catch up on the recently posted chapters!
You didn't think it'd be THAT easy for Kaiba to get a kiss from Bloom did you?! Anyways! Get ready for Chapter 11!
Chapter 11:
Origin Of The Shadow Games
Kaiba paused as Bloom placed her fingers on his lips. Her heart was beating rapidly as her mind tried to wrap itself around the situation she was in! She had to say something and fast. But she couldn't seem to even open her mouth. Nearby Sky teleported back into the hospital. "Aw man! I can't believe I almost left my Levi bike here! the blonde exclaimed. Sky paused as he took a look around. "Ok...that is odd...this IS the hospital, right? I must've teleported to the back or something..." he surmised before he paused hearing voices nearby. Pulling back a curtain he narrowed his eyes seeing some guy getting WAY too close to Bloom. WELL, he was going to put a stop to that right NOW! Without any hesitation, Sky stormed over to the unknown male and grabbed him yanking Kaiba back with a violent jerk. Bloom gasped as she noticed who it was that shoved Kaiba away from her. The blonde stood in front of the CEO protectively glaring at him.
"JUST WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE LAYING YOUR HANDS ON MY GIRLFRIEND!" Sky demanded to know as Kaiba, in turn, narrowed his eyes. "You've got ALOT of nerve talking to ME in such a manner...My name is Seto Kaiba the president and CEO of Kaiba Corp...and just WHO are you to be asking for MY name?" "KING of Eraklyon...Sky...so you're the one Bloom's been living with...I bet you tricked her into believing you were some kind of white knight but I see your TRUE colors...YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING! Sky spat before he Kaiba by his white jacket and threw a punch. Kaiba quickly ceased the movement of his hand before an all out fist fight broke out between both men. Bloom could only watch helplessly as she was still hooked up to the IV giving blood to Mokuba who amazingly enough was still able to sleep. If only the doctors and the nurse would come back!
"GUYS! PLEASE STOP!" Bloom pleaded. "SKY YOU HAVE IT ALL WRONG! KAIBA WASN'T DOING ANYTHING! REALLY!" "No way Bloom! I'm NOT leaving until this creep explains himself!" Sky spat angrily. "I don't HAVE to explain anything to the likes of YOU!" the blue-eyed male fired back at the blonde. "THAT'S IT! I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL! If I can't make you talk then I'll BEAT the truth out of you!" Kaiba only smirked. "...Very well but the Duel will be on MY terms...the name of the challenge is a game I'm quite familiar with...and so will YOU be...it's called Duel Monsters..." the CEO muttered and tossed Sky a rule book and a duel disk. "I'll provide you with those...but the cards you'll have to acquire on your own..." Sky narrowed his eyes. "Fine, I accept your challenge...but if I win Bloom moves out!" "Fair enough..." Kaiba muttered. "Now...in case you haven't noticed I need to tend to my little brother...so unless you want that chiseled face to meet my fist I suggest you leave...NOW!" Kaiba hissed. "I have somewhere else I need to be anyways..." the blonde muttered before his eyes met the redhead's and left the room. Bloom only groaned afterward. She couldn't believe that just happened.
"UGH! Are you kidding me!? You guys just HAD to start a fight in here of all places!" "...He started it...and I'll finish it..." Kaiba muttered angrily. Bloom couldn't even add anything else and grabbed her pillow screaming into it as loud as she possibly could. Why did Sky challenge Kaiba anyways!? Why did Men always swing their fists first and talk later? This sucked. Part of her wanted to stay with Kaiba but not if it meant losing Sky. They'd been through so much together. Did she really want to throw it all away?No, but she still had to apologize. "...Kaiba..." "What?" "I...I just wanted to say that I'm sorry...I...I should have told you about Sky. I just didn't think that was-" "Hmph...it's not like it matters to me. Do whatever you want to...and I'll do the same..." the blue eyed male muttered coldly. Just looking at the hardened gaze in his eyes hurt. Whether she wanted them to or not she could feel tears surfacing before finally the doctor and nurse returned. Once she was undone Bloom was escorted outside to a small table of donuts and juice. The redhead took one final look behind her only briefly meeting Kaiba's as he too turned to look at Bloom. Irritation slowly consumed him. Why did it only piss him off when she was away from him? Since when did it matter to him that he was by himself?
Carefully Bloom was sat down by the nurse who left her shortly after. Yugi and Joey hurried over to her relieved she was ok. "Man! You were in dare for a long time! I thought fer sure dat they'd sucked up all ya blood." Joey teased. "How's Mokuba now?" Yugi questioned but Bloom didn't answer lost in her own thoughts. Yugi frowned before he took some juice and held it up to her. "You should at least have something to drink. You wouldn't want to pass out though I suppose this would be the best place to do it." Yugi admitted softly. The redhead accepted and offered a smile taking the juice box. "Thanks..." she murmured and quietly sipped on it. Joey and Yugi only exchanged worried glances. "Ya tink somethin happened in dare?" Joey whispered softly. "I don't know Joey...but I'm worried..." Yugi confessed upset before he heard the Pharoah's voice reach out to him. {Yugi...I need to talk with you alone...} Atem whispered inside to his other self. {Oh alright...} "Joey." Yugi spoke up. "Hmm?" "The Pharoah needs to talk with me so I'm going to go outside. You make sure to watch over Bloom ok?" "Sure leave it ta me Yug!" Joey grinned with a wink before Yugi slowly slipped outside.
"Ok, Atem...we're alone now..." Yugi whispered before the Pharoah's spirit manifested in front of him. "So what's up Atem...I don't think I've ever seen you frazzled...then again you've been gone for at least a year...but I figure it must be serious if you've returned..." Atem nodded. "Yes, I believe I know the reason for being summoned once again to this world..." "It has to do with Bloom doesn't it?" Yugi questioned with a worried frown. "Yes and no...do you recall when Bloom transformed Yugi?" "Yeah. She grew wings and changed her outfit...she almost looked like a duel monster...is she..?" The Pharoah only chuckled in amusement. "No Yugi. She is an ancient creature known as a Faerie." "A Faerie?" "Yes. Magical being that once were plentiful among the Earth...they protected the planet and were especially well known in Egypt." Atem explained. "Wow. I had no idea...but if the world where the Duel Monster Spirits dwell is connected to ours then I suppose anything is possible." Yugi admitted. "In particular there was a Faerie Nymph known as Daphne
"In particular there was a Faerie Nymph known as Daphne. It is she that came before my father the Pharoah at the time. There was to be a union between the Earth and the Magical Dimension...and for thousands of years, our kingdom was granted prosperity. It was during this time we the people of Egypt were granted a special gift as a sign of friendship between the two worlds..." Yugi continued to listen filled with intrigue by this sudden history lesson. "The gift was a flame that was unlike any fire we had ever laid eyes upon...it came from The Great Dragon or as we knew it as simply the Sun god Ra...it was called The Dragon Fire. The breath and vitality from which the Millenium items were forged from this mighty and powerful flame..." Atem told Yugi. "But wait I thought they were made from the darkness of Zorc." Yugi frowned confused. "No...originally they were instilled with the power of light...that's...what I wanted to talk to you about Yugi...about Ogron and The Wizard's Of The Black Circle...and Kaiba..." the Pharoah's voice darkened.
"W-Wait! The Creator Of Light! The one that destroyed Zorc! Does that mean-" Atem was quiet for a moment as sorrow clouded his scarlet eyes. "A spell cast by Daphne...so that Egypt and its people would be ensured peace and protected from evil..." "Phew...well I'm not gonna lie that's quite a head turner...but what about the Egyptian gods...? Since they're so powerful I can hardly imagine having just one person creating them EVEN a Faerie..." Yugi admitted trying to let this all sink in. "Indeed..." the Pharoah began. "A force so great manifested itself into the world...our world that perhaps could even carry the strength to surpass that of the Dragon Fire...yes...it appeared the very day the Wizard's Of The Black Circle came...the end of Egypt's peace...and the birth of the Shadow Games..."
