Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Easier to Run ❯ Easier to Run ( Chapter 1 )

Easier to Run

Sometimes, in life, it's just easier to try to run away from everything, but it doesn't always mean that it's the right thing to do…

See Seto. Seto Run.

See Yami. See Yami look for Seto.

See Boys. See Boys kiss and make up.

Need I Say More?

So, without further ado, here it is… Easier to Run…

(Music Opens…)

It is storming outside the Kaiba Mansion, the raindrops falling, the streets flooding, lightning flashes in the darkened sky above, and thunder claps in the distance…

It's easier to run,

Replacing this pain with something more,

It's so much easier to run

Than face all this pain here all alone…

Silently, a dark figure creeps soundlessly along the castle walls, and flees across the grassy grounds, towards the dark forest in the rear of the estate…

Something has been taken,

From deep inside of me,

A secret I've kept locked away

No one can ever see

The single shadow is spotted by only one, a pair of crimson eyes watching helplessly as their owner's one true love leaves, hoping to flee all of the pain, and never return…

Seto… Where are you going?…

Wounds so deep they never show,

They never go away,

Like moving pictures in my head,

For years and years they play

As the dark form turns around to take one last look at the torture that he tries to flee, his eyes wander down to his wrists. Lifting up the long sleeves on his navy jacket, he stares at the deep scars left behind. Marks of suffering… Marks of pain… Marks of long ago and unforgotten pasts…

If I could change I would

Take back the pain I would

Retrace every wrong move that I made

I would if I could stand up and take the blame I would,

I would take all my shame

To the grave

The silhouette winces as he remembers all of the memories he desperately tries to forget, and as he finds himself staring up at the gray fortress, he himself finds the two ruby orbs staring at him from the distance. Silent tears are shed from the blood-red eyes, but they cannot change his decision --- It was now or never…

If I could change I would

Take back the pain I would

Retrace every wrong move that I made

I would if I could stand up and take the blame I would,

I would take all my shame

To the grave

The garnet-eyed one knew that he could change it around… Everything was in the past, and though it could not be undone, a future could be assured that it would never happen again… And so, he too, left the darkened palace, to find the one he needed more than life itself…

It's easier to run,

Replacing this pain with something more,

It's so much easier to go

Than face all this pain here all alone

The Sapphire-orbed stranger continued to rush through the pitch-black forest, hoping to escape his past, but seeming to be stuck in only one place… The dark outline soon came to a clearing that he recognized very well… The park…

Sometimes I remember the darkness

Of my past,

Bringing back these memories

I wish I didn't have.

Sometimes I think of letting go

And never looking back,

And never moving forward so

There'd never be a past…

The ocean-eyed shadow soon found himself headed towards the stream… strolling alongside the riverside, and remembering how his life had begun to take a turn for the better…

If I could change I would

Take back the pain I would

Retrace every wrong move that I made I would

If I could stand up and take the blame I would,

I would take all my shame

To the grave

The claret-eyed silhouette also soon found himself at the clearing… and with it, his azure-orbed love…

If I could change I would

Take back the pain I would

Retrace every wrong move that I made

I would if I could stand up and take the blame I would,

I would take all my shame

To the grave

Underneath the pounding rainstorm, and thunder spread across the sky, the wine-color-orbed form slipped his arms around the cerulean silhouette… and the indigo-eyed shadow pulled away…

Just watching it aside

All of the helplessness inside

Pretending I don't feel this pain

It's so much safer than change

What did I do wrong, Seto?

It's not you, Yami, It's me…

Seto, I love you with all of my soul, I always have, and I always will…

That doesn't change what I did all of those years ago… all of those people that I caused to suffer… It seems that I finally got what I deserved this time around…

It's easier to run,

Replacing this pain with something more,

It's so much easier to go

Than face all this pain here all alone

Seto, that over a Millenia ago, and there is nothing you can do now… It is all in the past… And you can't change what happened with Gozaburo either… All you can do is promise Mokuba and yourself a better, brighter future… And running away won't solve anything…

It's easier to run

If I could change I would

Take back the pain I would

Retrace every wrong move that I made

It's better than having to face all of the pain alone… I could never put Mokuba through what I went through… Yami, this is a burden I have to bear on my own…

No, you don't Seto…

I… I don't?…

No, Seto… I will be there for you… You will never be alone…

It's easier to go

If I could change I would

Take back the pain I would

Retrace every wrong move that I made I would

I would if I could stand up and take the blame I would,

I would take all my shame

To the grave

Thank you, Yami…

Yami snuggled into Seto arms, but soon felt his chin being pulled up into a passionate kiss…

I love you Seto, I did a millennia ago, and I always will…

I love you too, Yami, always and forever…

Both lovers felt secure in the other's arms, and Seto now knew that he would never have to run again, because he knew he would never be alone, not with Yami in his arms every time he needed him most…

(Music Closes)
