~Chapter 6

Jounouchi's first instinct was to be embarrassed, but as his eyes fell upon the blood soaked sheets and Yugi's briused body, his usally slow mind comprehended.

"Yami?" He muttered in shock.

Yami moved off the smaller one, completely indifferent about his nudity. "Leave us be, Jounouchi, this doesn't concern you," he said in a calm voice. He had no reason to sound threatening; the sennen eye that appeared on his forehead was proof enough that he was becoming angry.

"N-no!" Jounouchi answered, futilly faking bravery. "Yugi come with me! Let's get out of hear!" *before he can hurt either of us...*

He advanced towards the couple, intending to help the small boy as he struggled to get up. But before he could reach them, Yami laced his arms around Yugi's torso and held him protectively.

"Stay away from him! He's mine," the dark one growled angrily. Dark energy enveloped the two. Jounouchi paused, he had to be careful or Yugi would get hurt. But as much as he knew it was a bad idea, he couldn't control his anger. He had to know.

"How could you do this to Yugi! He trusted you!" *I always thought you were better then this...*

"Do what?" Yami questioned angrily, "I haven't done anything wrong. Yugi's fine!" Jounouchi looked at him like he was insane. *How could he possibly believe that* Suddenly the true implications of Yami's words hit him. He knew he needed to take a different approach.

"Yami, please, look at him! Yugi's hurt!" he pleaded. It was true, blood was still making its way down the inside of his thighs, and he was slipping in and out of consciousness. "Please..."

Since the annoying blond had interrupted,Yami had been playing the same words over and over in his mind. *I haven't done anything wrong...Yugi's fine...* But as the normally stubborn and ill-tempered boy pleaded with him, something seemed to change. A new voice, one not like his, made itself present. It told him that he had shattered his love's innocent soul, taken advantage of him, and there was nothing he could do...

He released Yugi and took a step back, fearing he'd, if possible hurt the little one further.

Jounouchi caught the smaller boy before he could fall to the floor, and led him out of the room. Away form the dark soul of the millennium puzzle and coincidentally Yugi's other half.
