Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Conflicted ❯ Chapter 5 ( Chapter 5 )

~Chapter 5

The silence seemed to stretch forever, but really it was only moments before the intruders voice echoed through the halls of the small game shop.

"Yug? Are you up there?"

*Jounouchi!* Yugi thought as that long lost feeling of hope flooded his system. The young boy opened his mouth to cry out, but no sound came. His throat was sore from overuse and he was completely sapped of energy. *No not now. Please not now.* He urged his body to react, but it was useless...

Yami's mind was in a whirl. He wasn't sure what to do, so he froze.

"Yug? I heard screaming. Are you okay?" Jounouchi voice persisted as he made his way towards the door of the small room. Yami's mind seemed to start up at the sound of the old floorboards creaking. He needed to get out of this position. *I haven't done anything wrong...* he assured himself.

Yugi felt Yami tence, then begin to pull himself out. Along with the sudden wave of pain came new energy. He screamed out in agony, reacting to the pain more then his will to get Jounouchi's attention.

Hearing Yugi's cries of distress, the blond hared boy increased his pace to a run. He swung open the door, and stopped dead in his tracks, at the site that met him.
