Disclaimer-I own Inuyasha like I own Slim Jims. And I don't have any Slim Jims, so that says something there. *cries*

Author's Notes-I know I haven't updated in a tad bit, but it's all good now. I started this chapter several times, but never liked how it was. So I didn't bother since I had nothing. But like I said, it's all good now. ^.^ I got some ideas up my sleeve yet! Anyway, we left off with Yugi remembering he had a sister-or did he? And what of his parents? The chapter reveals...

ALSO! Phreaky is VERY saddended that she has fallen to page two on the `P' section! NOT COOL! I was sad about that for a few days. Still am. Meh.

CHAPTER TEN!! YEAH! An even number! ^.^ This chapter should be fairly entertaining.

Editor's Note: Warning, phreaky was on an insane amount of caffeine and soda during the writing of this chapter.

Confidential Pain

Chapter Ten- I See Your Face, You're Haunting Me

Yugi flattened himself against the wall and slowly inched towards the corner, then cautiously peered around it.

"This is Porcupine Head to Squirrley...do you read me?" Yugi whispered into an invisible walkie talkie ,imitating the static.

"Pshhhhh....this is Squirrely to Porcupine Head...I read you...all clear?" He whispered in response to himself, but this time in a different, squeakier voice.

"Purshhhh psh psh psh psh..." Static took over as Yugi carefully checked the halls to make sure all was clear and ready for the next move. "Psh psh.. all clear, I'm moving on...over and out psh psh psh..." He whispered before pushing a pretend button and clipping the walkie talkie on his belt.

Double checking that the halls around him were empty, he darted on tip toe across the hall to the other side and hid behind a suit of armour. Shifting his eyes from side to side, he pulled out the walkie talkie once more.

"Psh psh psh psh pshhhhh....target is in sight..." Yugi flitted his gaze to the large, mahogany double doors that led to Kaiba's study.

"10-4 psh psh psh psh..." Squirrely responded.

Yugi peered around the armour to make sure no one was coming, but almost choked on his saliva when he saw one of the butlers approaching. He quickly zipped behing the armour and flattened against the wall, willing himself to be invisible, before bringing the walkie talkie to his mouth.

"Porcupine Head to Squirrely...butler approaching!! Camo time! Psh psh psh pshhhhhh...." Yugi clipped it once more to his belt then lifted his wrist so it was level with his naval. He wiggled the fingers on his other hand for a second before sticking out his index finger, twirling it around a few times. Raising it to a spot above his wrist, he breathed out three times quickly, then brought his finger down and pressed an invisable button.

"It's camo time!" He whispered, taking his finger away from the button and stretching his arms out on either side of him. Giving a shifty gaze to the approaching butler, he breathed, but held it in so the butler would not hear his breathing.

The old, slow walking butler took his time coming down the hallway, causing poor Porcupine to begin to turn a shade of purple from holding his breath so long. When at last he reached the spot across from Yugi, he bent down to tie his shoe. Yugi made a few exasperated noises, then reluctantly let the breath out of him in a large whoooosh.

"Hmm?" The butler, hearing the noise, lifted his head and looked around for the source of the noise. He spotted Yugi hiding behind a suit of armour, with his arms and legs stretched up against the wall.

"Oh! Why hello Sir Yugi..." The butler stood up and bowed, staring somewhat confused at Yugi, who shifted his gaze around.

"Who you talkin' to Willis?!" He hissed at the butler, who raised an eyebrow in response. "You can't see me! I BLEND!!!!" Yugi bared his teeth at the butler and flattened himself against the wall even more as if to prove his point. "Squirrely...I think I've been spotted psh psh psh psh..." Yugi muttered while keeping an eye on the butler, who began to slowly back away. "Keep on psh psh psh guard! Psh psh pshhhhh...Squirrely!! I think I'm psh psh psh psh lose psh psh psh ing you! Psh psh psh pshhhhh pweeeeee!" Yugi gave a startled look at the walkie talkie. "No! Squirrely, do you read me? SQUIRRELY!!" Yugi whacked his arm against the wall in attempt to get the walkie talkie to work again, but that proved stupid as a sharp pain ran through his arm, causing him to do a small jig in pain.

"Ow ow ow ow ow ow owwwww!" He squealed, waving his arm around in the air in attempt to make it stop hurting, narrowly missing whacking the butler, who was making an attempt to dodge his flailing arms. In his attempt to get away from Yugi, his leg accidently ran into Yugi, who tripped over it and fell flat on his face.

"Omph! Whoo fwoopid-whaddoo phying todo?! Dwill me?!" Yugi said from his face down position on the floor, feeling around for the scared butler, who scurried down the hall, leaving Yugi's swollen arm and red face.

Heaving himself up from the floor, Yugi looked around for the butler, but saw no sight of him.

"Damn stupid...what's the world coming to...crazy people out there..." He mumbled irritably while rubbing his arm. "Trying to get into freaking..and then that ass...and now..." His mutterings suddenly stopped as he turned to see the large doors in front of him. A grin washed over his face, and he darted a glance along the halls-no one coming this time.

Wiggling his eyebrows and fingers, he readied himself for the doorknob. He nodded his head from side to side, cracking his neck, then narrowed his eyes, prepared for anything that might come.

He breathed in, then breathed out, and then gave a determined sigh. Looking at the doorknob, he reached his hand closer and closer to it. Grabbing it, he felt the cold metal against his sweaty hands and began to turn it.

"Excuse me, Sir, you're not allowed in there." A voice said from behind him, causing him to jump slightly.

"Huh? Wasn't me!" Yugi said, turning around and putting on an innocent look. "I-I wasn't trying to get in there! Nope! Wasn't me! Musta been....Squirrely! Yeah! It was Squirrely!" He stammered, giving the butler a huge, innocent smile and letting go of the doorknob.

"Squirrely?" He said dubiously.

"Ye-Yeah! Squirrely! He's uh...my..my..my evil twin! Yeah! Wasn't me, nope, no no no!" There was an akward silence in the hallway, in which the butler stared at Yugi like he was crazy, and Yugi's smile faltered. Looking around the hall, Yugi fixed his gaze on something.

"Hey...what's that?" He asked, pointing at something behind the butler.

"What?" He asked, turning around to follow Yugi's point. "What are you pointing at?" Seeing nothing, he turned back around to see Yugi fiddling with the doorknob, trying to get it open.

"Damn stupid thing is locked..." He muttered, and not noticing the butler staring at him, he jiggled with the door some more.

"Ahem..." The butler coughed, causing Yugi to whirl around.

"The twin! The evil twin! It was him!" Yugi squeaked, fumbling nervously. "Hey, what's that?" Yugi asked, pointing at the same spot he had before.

"I'm not falling for THAT again, sir." The butler said, crossing his arms.

"Kiki loo kuckoo!" A voice said behind the butler, whose eyes widened in shock. Afraid of what was actually there this time, he slowly turned around-to see nothing.

"Yuuuugi...." He muttered angrily, turning around to face the devil child. "What?! Where'd he go?!" He said, looking around for him. He caught sight of the boy running down the hall and turning around the corner. He started to chase after the boy, but decided against it and sighed, deciding to go have a nice cup of tea.

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

Yugi leaned against his bedroom door, breathing hard from running so fast.

"Damn all those butlers..." He sighed, sliding down to the floor in a slouched position. "But thankfully I know Ventriliquism..." He smiled, recalling the butler's scared face.

Stabbing at the carpet with his index finger, he tried to figure out how he'd get into the study. Now that he knew it was locked, he'd need to get the key. He'd also have to find a way to get everyone out of the place that way he could do it in peace. Unless he was able to slip by unnoticed...

Grinning, Yugi stood up and wandered over to his nightstand. Pulling open the drawer, he reached in and picked up the small, sparkly purple credit card. He pocketed it, then whisteling, left his room and the house to do a bit of shopping.

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

Clurcky, the Security man, sat in the security room with his box of donuts, watching the security camera monitors dully. His eyes began to slowly droop shut, and he failed to notice the shadow that was moving in front of Kaiba's study. His breathing steadily got slower as he fell asleep, and the donut he was holding fell from his hand onto the floor with a soft -kerflump-. He sat up with a jolt from the noise, and looked wildely around for his precious.

"My precious..." He whispered, picking it up and taking a dainty bite out of it.

A sudden sound of a door knob jiggling protruded from the speakers of the monitor watching Kaiba's study. Clurcky stuffed the rest of the dount in his mouth and peered closer at the screen.

"A...dog?" He asked himself. Shaking his head, he reached for the security phone and dialed the security room downstairs to have someone check it out.

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

Harold Isnuts, the same butler from earlier, had answered the confused security man's phone call. He was now standing around the corner from the hallway where he and Yugi had met earlier, the hallway where Kaiba's study was located. He heard an occasional jiggling of the door knob.

Cautiously, he sneaked a glance around the corner and did indeed see a dog- a curious one at that. Were dogs supposed to stand on two feet and pick locks? A sudden suspicion crossed his mind...

Quietly, he approached the dog with as little noise as possible. When he was at last standing right behind him, he tapped the dog on the shoulder.

"Ehhh?" The dog said, turning around to come face to face with Mr. Isnuts. "I mean...WOOF WOOF!" The dog said, dropping to all fours and cantering about woofing.

Harold Isnuts gave an annoyed sigh, rolled his eyes, and grabbed the dog's head with both of his hands.

"WOOF WOOF WOOF!" The dog said when he did that, trying to get him to stop. Ignoring the acts of reluctance from the dog, Harold pulled off the dogs head to reveal a squinting Yugi.

"..."

"...."

Harold stared at the half dog, half human Yugi, with the head still in his hand, and blinked a few times at him. Yugi coughed and fiddled with his paws a little, looking around innocently.

"I'll just be...going now..." Yugi said, bringing himself to a stand and grabbing the head. He then took off down the hall, shouting "It was the evil twin I tell you!!! I'm really asleep in my room!"

Harold sighed and rubbed his temples, then shook his head and headed back towards the butler lounge.

^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

The next morning came quickly, and Yugi jumped out of bed, ready to put his next plan into action. Walking over to the intercom, he pressed a button and began speaking.

"Please send Mr. Isnuts up here immediately." Yugi said in his important voice. He took his finger off the button, then seated himself in his poofy chair, waiting for the nutso.

A few minutes passed by, when finally his door creaked open and the butler walked in.

"Yes, boy?" He said in a strange voice, treating Yugi like a doggy.

"Hmph. I want you to take the day off. You deserve it, I mean, you're such a bad-I mean, good, wonderful, superb worker! I insist!" Yugi said in a cheery voice, giving Harold a charming smile.

"No, I think I'll pass."

"I said, I insist." Yugi said in a demanding voice.

"I said, I'll pass."

"But you really need a break."

"Had one three months ago."

"Take the month off then."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."
"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"YES!!!!"

"I 'd rather stick around here."

"FINE!" Yugi screamed, waving his arms around as if to make some sort of a point. "There's a package for you. Go get it. You have to sign for it. At the door. Go."

"No."

"...Yes."

"Let me think about this-no."

"Let me think about this-You're fired!" Yugi shouted into the man's face, who just stared back, astounded.

"What? You can't fire me!" He said in a nervous voice.

"Oh yes I can! The contract says so! `Fire and or Hire as you please, the staff are yours for the time being.' I win, you lose, HAHA!" Yugi smiled, pointing at him in a victorious way.

"Please...don't fire me..." He said quietly.

"Already did. Now get outta here!"

"But...but..."

"No but's. Get out, or take the month off."

"No! I want my job, I don't want to take the month off!"

"Then let me in Kaiba's study."

"Why?"

"Because I said so. I'll give you a raise, and three thousand dollars."

Harold started to retort, but shut his mouth. Yugi could see him contemplating the possibilities to himself.

"I'll even donate three grand towards your daughter." Yugi spoke quietly.

"What? You know about my daughter?" The man said, jerking his gaze to Yugi instead of the floor.

"Oh yes, the whole drama story, your daughter witnessed something terrible and was traumatized and soon went into a coma...and that hospital is damn expensive!" Yugi rolled his eyes as a tear fell from the quiet man's eye.

"Ok...fine...I accept your deal...but what do you need to go in there for?" He asked curiously.

"To order some pizza!" Yugi smiled, and stood up from his chair. Grabbing his hand, the two shook hands, sealing their deal.

"Now...take me to the study..." Yugi said, shooing the man out of the bedroom so that he could lead him.

`Finally...At last, I just might find what was forgotten...' He thought to himself as the two walked along the halls.
