Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Coming Together ❯ The Way it Should Be ( Epilogue )

Okay peeps, here's the last chapter and epilogue. Yeah for me, I finally finished it! Of course I wouldn't have been able to if it wasn't for some very good friends of mine (Gina, Ruki, Yami, and everybody else cuz you know who you are), and all my wonderful reviewers who kept encouraging me to right. I have yet to have one single bad review come of any of them. Hehe, so happy. K k, I'm sure you're tired of hearing me yap on so on with the last chappy!

Years later, no one knows how long exactly, but many years at the least. The reincarnations of lovers kept coming, always able to keep going on with each other, nobody ever tiring of their love meant to be.

Yami and Yugi are together for a third time, Bakura and Ryou for the third, Malik and Marik for the third, Joey and Seto for the second, and the newest couple and together for the first time is Shidosha and Kyra, and since Dark and Celtic never died they were just reunited once more with their masters.

The friends sitting around the park glad to be with each other once more, all finally coming together for the third time in all of their lifetimes together from Egypt the first, Japan the second, and now America as their third. Who knew where they ended up the next but they always knew they were going to be together for the rest of eternity.

"Joey! Don't eat everything now or there won't be anything left for the rest of us when we're really supposed to eat!" Malik shouted at the blonde.

Joey pouted and replaced the rice cake back with the rest in the basket. Seto found pity on his soul mate and wrapped an arm around his waist. "It's alright, my love. You can eat later. How about we take a walk around the park?"

The blonde brightened up and the couple stood and walked down one of the paths.

Yugi smiled as he watched them go, enjoying the warm arms wrapped around his own body as he looked into Yami's crimson eyes that were smiling down into his own violet ones.

The peace was broken, however, by squeals of excitement by the other two hikari's of the group.

"Malik, you have to push me on the swing!" Marik jumped up excitedly.

"Yeah, Bakura, please!" Ryou shouted next to his best friend.

//I guess those two spotted the swings.// Yugi heard Yami's gentle, but amused, voice crawl through his mind.

/Yami?/ Yugi started.

//Come, little one; You needn't ask me for I already know what you want.//

Yugi smiled and stood up, taking Yami's offered hand as they walked over to the swings. "Will you swing with me, Yami?"

"Of course, my love." Yami smiled back at his light. He sat down on the swing and pulled Yugi into his lap. He waited for Yugi to get comfortable before starting a lazy pace of going back and forth on the swing.

Yugi sighed into Yami's chest and closed hit eyes, enjoying every second of their time together.

The silence was broken a minute later with Ryou's and Marik's laughter as Bakura and Malik chased them over to the playground. It quieted down a minute later as the two yamis pushed their lights on the swings, having fun being in their own world together.

Shidosha and Kyra were sitting on the picnic blanket, enjoying their time together as well.

"I'm glad we're finally together." The dragon finally whispered into the emerald-eyed girl's ear.

"I'm glad too. Everything's finally as it should be. Yami has Yugi, Malik and Marik, Bakura and Ryou, and everybody else as well. How could anything be any better?" The girl replied.

"Alone at last, my precious puppy." Seto smirked as he held tightly onto Joey.

"I know. I love our time together, Seto. I've missed every minute of you when you were away last week on that trip."

"I missed you too." The CEO replied.

Dark and Celtic sat by the lake, watching the sun as it started to retire for the night; Both lovers in silence to enjoy the other's presence and warmth around them.

Yami carried the nearly sleeping angel in his arms over to a shaded oak tree, away from the noise the other two were making on their swings.

Yugi stirred in his arms and opened his tired violet eyes.

"I'm sorry, Yugi. Do I wake you?"

Yugi smiled at him and shook his head. "Nothing's better than waking up to you." The hikari replied. The teen lifted his hand and gazed lovingly at the gold band around his finger. "Together forever." Yugi sighed.

"Do you like your birthday present?" Yami asked as he watched the ring sparkle in the few rays of sunlight peeking through the branches.

"I loved both of them. Thank you, my wonderful husband."

"You aren't too sore are you?"

Yugi giggled at the concerned expression on Yami's face and leaned up to kiss the soft lips of his yami. Pulling away a second later he shook his head. "No, Yami, it never hurts when you're around."

"I'm glad."

The six couples, all happily married and together, could never find a more romantic spot to be rather than in the arms of their soul mate no matter what time of day or night.

Yami and Yugi fell asleep by the oak tree. Yami cradling Yugi in his arms lovingly.

Bakura and Ryou snuggled up on the tire swing.

Malik and Marik kissing and talking lazily as Malik continued pushing Marik lightly on the swing.

Seto and Joey holding hands as they walked around the park.

Shidosha and Kyra sitting on the picnic blanket as they watched the few birds fly overhead.

And Dark and Celtic sitting by the lake watching the reds, blues, and other beautiful colors swirl together in the darkening sky.

And that's the end. I know it wasn't as good as the other chappies of this fic but I felt I had to put something at the very end to show they were all going to be happy and together with each other with the inclusion of Shidosha and Kyra.

But now for a fun part. All you wonderful readers can vote on the next ficcy I do.

Train Ride - Yami and Yugi meet on the train. Yami wants Yugi but doesn't know where to find him but he'll try anything to get him. (Kinda like `On the Line' but my version of it.)

Changing Makes a Difference - Yami's the slut of the school and Yugi's the innocent loner with no friends. Joey doesn't think Yami will ever be able to change so he challenges him to have one lover for a period of time with no sex and he gets to choose the person.

To Tell You -Yugi leaves clues for Yami since everyone keeps interrupting him when he tries to tell Yami how he feels for a whole week.

Unexpected Love - Marik's jealous, Bakura's lonely, Ryou is saddened and confused, and Malik can't see this because he's trying to find out if he really loves Ryou or not.

With You - Yami goes back to Egypt with Bakura and Marik. Yugi loses touch with everyone. He goes to Egypt with Ryou and Malik and they somehow end up in Ancient Egypt and back with their yamis.

Love is Unexplainable - Yami and Yugi are twin brothers who get separated when they're babies. They meet up again in high school and they fall in love with other. But how long will that be able to last?
