Enemy Mine

Chapter Seven

…Shadow What?…

~“I love you, Seto,” Yugi whispered as they stared into each others eyes, “And I, you, I just wish I could stay,” the blue eyed CEO said.

“Yugi…I don't want to die,” he confided. ~

The phone rang a shrill sound that pierced the silence of the office like a scream, the rooms' occupant swore in irritation before snatching up the receiver and snapped “Kaiba,” and a warped, distorted and echoic voice came over the line.

“Mr Kaiba…what would you say if I told you I know away to keep you healthy…alive,” the voice asked.

“Who is this?” the CEO growled.

“A concerned…friend,” it said.

“I have no friends,” Seto said, it was true, he didn't, he had people he payed, a doctor who was more of a father or uncle, a little brother, a lover and rivals, but no friends.

“Very well,” it said and silence rained for a few moments, “Would you like too know?” it asked and Seto swallowed, “I love you, Seto,” Yugis' confession burned threw his mind and he said “Tell me.”

“A shadow deal,” it said and Seto frowned, another nut, great.

“A shadow deal?” he said sarcasm deeply imbedded in his voice, his tone scathing.

“Yes, Mr Kaiba, a shadow deal can rid you of your…sickness,” the voice said and his insides froze.

“How do you know about that?”

“I know everything,” it stated, and Seto felt that it, the person on the other end was laughing at him.

“Explain,” he commanded, his voice laced with steel.

“Very well, you open a portal to the Shadow Realm, and then if the portal remains you put on hand into it and state you desire then if the creature one the other side agrees to for fill your wish it will do so. It will then demand something of you, you must for fill its demand, you can not get out of it,” the voice said and he ground his teeth together.

“I meant how you know everything!” he snarled, he didn't want to know about some magic drivel!

“Oh, I just do,” it said its tone so condescending as it spoke “Talk to Ishtar Malik, he will help you,” it said before the line went dead.

Growling he slammed the receiver down and glared at the desk, no way he was going to call that no good Egyptian!

“I love you, Seto,”

Damn it!

“I love you, Seto,”

“I don't want you to die big brother,”

“I don't wanna be alone.”

Fuck! He lifted the receiver and dialled a number that he never thought he'd ever use.

“Ishtar residence.”

…

Near on maniacal laughter filled the large room, a semi tall, silver haired boy sitting behind an overly large desk, his silver eyes filled with malicious joy, as he said “Yugi Moto is mine!”

If the corporate head took the bait and the monster did its job the blue eyed idiot would be completely out of the picture and then Yugi would be his, his and all his!

“Hakkyou what are you doing?” a deep voice called and the boy stopped laughing large silver eyes locking onto his older brothers figure by the door.

His brothers face half covered by a silver eyes patch and his hair, his one brown eye sad, grief stricken. “I'm making my love mine!” he said, a small innocent smile on his lips.

“Then why were you using the voice distorting system and calling Kaiba Corp, didn't I tell you to leave those two brothers alone?” Max said as he made his way over to his little brother.

“True but Kaiba stole my love from me and I want him back!” Hakkyou said staring at his brother, his eyes wide with innocence.

“Yugi…it all goes back to Yugi,” the multimillionaire said shaking his long haired head, the poor duellist must have had it up to here, what with people messing with him, his friends, his family and now his lover.

“Hakkyou, you know as well as I do that losing the one you love tears you apart,” he said trying to reason with his younger brother but the boy had turned him out going back to staring at the image of Yugi in his sleep on the large TV screen, though how his brother had gotten that image he didn't know.

…

“Yugi how is Seto?” Grampa asked and Yugi looked up from the counter where he sat staring into space.

“Huh?”

“Hows your boyfriend?” the older man repeated and Yugi sighed his eyes filling with pain. He hadn't told his grandpa that Seto was ill…dieing ill.

Even the rest of the group didn't know and though he'd spent the last few days with Seto, refusing to allow him to go to work and neither had gone to school, or left each other presence for more than a few moments. Only Joey knew out of his friends and was sworn to secrecy until Seto said it was time the others knew.

“Gramps I…” he said tears filling his eyes.

“Yugi, what is it?” his grandfather demanded his wrinkled hands grasping his shoulders.

“Seto…he's…oh Ra…he's dieing gramps,” Yugi sobbed as Yami appeared and wrapped himself around the younger boy as his grandfather held him close as well.

“How?” the older man chocked out in shock, such a powerful young man couldn't die so young, it was all…wrong!

“Leukaemia,” his grandson whispered as he hiccuped “He's had it since he was a baby, gramps, he had a twin!”

“She…died because of it the second time round and his mother died around the same time,” he said as he shook.

“Hush,” Solomon said rubbing useless circles on his grandsons back, suddenly understanding why the boy had stayed with his lover so long. He was spending every moment he could with the older boy.

“Why, why does he have to die?” the young boy sobbed.

“I don't know son, I don't know,”

…

“We meet tomorrow night, after dark,” the deep dry voice said and the line went dead.
