...Emotions Unleashed...
 
Yugi was so consumed with his emotions that he did not realize that Yami had turned his attention downwards at him. Yugi was stunned when he felt a soft gentle hand begin to stroke his back. The small boy immediately looked up and met with dark crimson eyes. The eyes, which had only moments ago were completely emotionless, now had a peculiar glow to them and Yugi felt hope flow from his heart throughout his entire body.
 
“Yami?” Yugi said slowly. “Yami, can you hear what I'm saying to you? I love you and I know that you love me too.” The glow that Yami held in his eyes intensified and Yugi felt confident that he was finally getting through to him. Second by second life began to fill into Yami's once dull eyes.
 
“Yami, we're meant to be. No spell or magical item can change that. It's destiny. Please Yami, come back to me” Yugi said with more tears. He held his breath when he saw Yami's mouth begin to move.
 
“Y-Yu-Yu,” Yami stuttered out. Yugi quickly shook his head up and down. Yami's voice was no longer mechanical but instead it had its normal charming and sweet tone. The crimson-eyed youth was mere seconds away from being his usual self again however the process of returning Yami back to his old self was hindered when a rough hand pushed Yugi against the wall violently.
 
“What do you think you're doing?!” Anzu said angrily.
 
Yugi turned to face the brunette with one hand holding on to his arm. He ignored the throbbing pain in his arm and turned his attention towards Yami and saw the glow, which had graced Yami's eyes only seconds ago, begin to vanish as the hope that had just entered his heart dissipated. Anzu took in to account that Yami had just begun to regain control back of his body and thoughts and soon enough fear began to set in. She turned her attention back to the amethyst-eyed boy and growled: “You are getting on my last nerves! If you don't stay away from my fiancé, then I will make your life a living breathing hell” Anzu smiled evilly. “Or maybe” Anzu said as she crossed her arms “I'll make you a mermaid again.”
 
Yugi's eyes almost fell out of their sockets. “How did you—“
 
“Why Yami told me, of course” Anzu said, already knowing the question. “Yami tells me anything and everything.”
 
Yugi looked down at the floor, unsure of what to do. He only muttered what he could muster up in his mind: “You can't. You only have one item and you already used it on Yami. You can only make one wish per item.”
 
He was caught off guard when Anzu burst out into laughter. “One Yugi” Anzu said while holding up a golden item. “Or two” she said, taking out another item from her pocket.
 
Yugi gasped in fear, which only made Anzu's smile widen even further. “So let's make a deal,” Anzu demanded more than asked. “You stay away from Yami and I won't turn you and you're friends back into mermaids.” And with that, Anzu snapped her fingers and Yami immediately stood on his feet and followed her out of the room. For a second though, Yugi had sworn that Yami looked back.
 
 
“Jou” Seto said for the twentieth time as he knocked on the blonde's door again. “Jou, come out of the room.” There was no response.
 
Seto, at this point, was becoming very irritable. “Jou, come out this instant or else I'm coming in, whether you like it or not!” Seto said loudly.
 
“Go away, Kaiba!” Jou said through the wooden door. Seto sighed in exasperation.
 
“Jou, don't test me!” Seto said angrily. “We need to talk. Ignoring me is not going to make this go away,” Seto said matter-of-factly.
 
"Well, I can try!" Jou spat back.
 
Seto growled: "I'm going to count to three, Jounouchi, and if this door is still closed, then I'm kicking it in!"
 
Seto paused and waited for a response but when nothing could be heard the brunet began to count: "1...2—"
 
The wooden door quietly creaked open and Jou stood in the doorway with an annoyed face. "What?” Jou said impatiently.
 
Seto just rolled his eyes and pushed his way in past Jou before standing in the middle of the room. The blonde sighed and closed his bedroom door and then looked into Seto's icy blue eyes. "Jou, I apologize for being too forward,” Seto said causing Jou to blink. Jou was really surprised that Seto had just apologized after all the hell that he had put the blonde through since Jou and Yugi began to live there.
 
"It's fine" Jou said before taking a seat at the edge of his bed. "It's just that..." Jou trailed off but then managed to regain back some of his courage and proceeded. "I've never felt the way I do about you towards anyone else before" Jou looked down at the ground. "But I'm scared...because I don't know what I feel. I'm supposed to hate you and you're supposed to hate me. That's why we do awful things to each other" Jou then stopped but didn't even bother to look up at the brunet in front of him.
 
"Pup, you don't understand" Seto said before walking up to Jou and covering the blonde's lips with his own. After about a minute, Seto released Jou's lips and looked deep into his eyes.
 
"Jou, do you honestly hate me?" Seto said slowly. Jou closed his eyes as he thought about all the emotions that had filled his mind when Seto and his lips touched. He didn't find hate or disgust like one would expect him to. He widened his eyes in realization when he found the one emotion that stood out among the rest. "No" Jou said slowly.
 
Seto took a deep breath before asking his next question: "Do you love me?" Seto said with emotion in his voice. Jou stared into Seto's eyes for what seemed like eternity before finally nodding his head. "Yes, I do Seto" Jou said and searched through the blue eyes to look for a reaction to his confession...any reaction.
 
"Good" Seto said with a brief smile. "Because I love you too" the brunet said before claiming Jou's lips once again.
 
...
 
"What?!" Ryou said in shock.
 
Yugi nodded and winced when Malik tightened the wrap around the gash on Yugi's arm to hard. Anzu had knowingly pushed Yugi into the wall too hard and he hit the side of his arm against the window ledge, which cut deeply into his arm.
 
"Sorry" Malik said as he continued to wrap up the wound.
 
"Wait" Bakura said leaning against the wall "So you're telling us that if any of us go near Yami again then all of you will be fishys again?"
 
Yugi gasped out in pain when the wrap around his arm was once again tightened too hard and turned to Malik who was glaring intensely at Bakura.
 
"We're not fishys, you idiotic excuse for a human!" Malik said, which caused Bakura to return the glare.
 
"Malik" Ryou said as he noticed the pain-filled expression in Yugi's face. "How about I bandage Yugi's arm?"
 
Malik looked down at the small boy and guilt immediately filled his eyes. "I'm sorry Yugi" Malik said before allowing Ryou to take over.
 
Yugi just nodded and Marik began to talk: "What did the two items that she showed to you look like?"
 
Yugi thought back for a second before answering: "One was a necklace, the other was a small scale."
 
Yugi heard Marik and Bakura sigh in relief. Yugi had figured that neither of the two items that Anzu had found were the seventh item that everybody had been looking for. The others had already explained to Yugi about the much-sought-after item and Yugi was overly relieved that Anzu had not gotten her mitts on it.
 
Yugi quietly thanked Ryou when the albino had finished taking care of his arm and then jumped off of the chair that he was sitting on. "I need to go find Jou. I haven't seen him for a while and I need to fill him in on everything."
 
Yugi was surprised when he heard Marik and Bakura scoff but didn't think anything of it as he said goodbye to his friends and exited the room.
 
After Yugi was gone, Ryou turned towards Bakura with a raised eyebrow. "What was that for?" Ryou asked curiously.
 
"O nothing" Bakura said with a smile.
 
Malik was not satisfied and growled. Marik took the hint. "Let's just say, your blonde friend might be a little busy with Seto at the moment."
 
Ryou and Malik's eyes widened tremendously.
 
"What!?" They said in unison.
 
...
 
Ryou and Bakura walked outside on the shore and glanced out into the sea. They had decided that they would search the shore to see if by chance the other item had surfaced and Marik and Malik had decided to see if they could steal Anzu's items. Ryou shook his head as he watched a few servants sweep up some of the mess that Malik had caused earlier. He stood next to Bakura quietly. He was used to the other albino's presence by now but he still felt nervous around the other. When they got to the very edge of the shore, Ryou leaned over slightly on his tiptoes so that he would be able to get a better view of the sea. However, he leaned over too much and almost fell straight in the water but luckily strong arms embraced him and stood him back upright. Ryou smiled when he turned to face the boy that had saved him from getting wet.
 
"Thank you" Ryou said happily.
 
"Yeah" was all Bakura said.
 
Ryou turned his attention back towards the sea. It was silent for a while and Ryou's cheeks were tinted a light shade of pink when he realized that Bakura was examining him intensely. Ryou of course didn't have the courage to call him out on it like Malik would have but he was saved when Bakura broke the silence.
 
"Do you miss it?" Bakura asked. There was no emotion in his voice, just plain curiosity.
 
Ryou nodded: "Yeah, I do."
 
"If you had a chance would you turn back into a mermaid? I mean, if Yugi didn't need you" Bakura asked.
 
Ryou looked taken aback by the question but nonetheless thought about the answer carefully before responding: "Yes, I would...unless I had another reason to stay..." he said carefully as he turned to face Bakura. He was disheartened when he saw no emotion in his eyes and hastily added: "We should go back inside. There's nothing here."
 
Bakura nodded and both of them turned back towards the house and began to walk, once again, in silence.
 
...
 
Malik snuck quietly into Anzu's room before he gave the okay for Marik to come in as well. Quickly the two began to search through the room, destroying everything that they got their hands on in the process. After twenty minutes of searching, Malik threw up his hands in annoyance.
 
"Damn it! They're not here! The bitch must have them on her!" Malik said angrily.
 
Marik nodded. "We'll just have to come back later..." Marik trailed off as he heard footsteps approaching the room. He grabbed Malik's arm tightly, much to the boy's dislike, and pushed him into the small closet that he entered as well before shutting the closet door. The closet was so small that their bodies were right against each other and they could barely move. At that exact moment, Anzu walked into the room and stopped short when she saw the mess.
 
"What the hell happened?" Anzu said to herself.
 
Malik wanted to kill her more than anything right now and was mere seconds away from coming out and doing just that.
 
"It was probably those damn butlers! They're always breaking shit!" Anzu said before going over to the mirror and looking herself up and down. "Too bad Yami's so handsome and charming" Anzu said with a smile. "If he wasn't then I would have used that wish to make that cute little Egyptian mine."
 
She started when she heard a growl come from the closet and turned to face it. Meanwhile, inside the closet, Marik was quietly begging Malik to shut up before she found them and used that other item of hers to cause all type of hell. Marik struggled to move his hands to cover Malik's mouth because they were completely stuck in their place. So he thought of the only thing that he could do and covered Malik's mouth with his own. Surprisingly, Malik did not make a sound, probably because he was in so much shock. Anzu, however, was still approaching the closet and they were seconds from being revealed when a maid entered the room.
 
"Miss Anzu, do you need some assistance?" the maid said.
 
Anzu turned around to face the young girl. "Of course I do! Clean this mess immediately!" Anzu shouted at the maid before stomping out of the room.
 
"Bitch" the maid said after Anzu had left and turned around to exit the room to get her cleaning supplies.
 
Almost instantly the closet door bursted open and Malik and Marik fell out of it flat on the floor. Malik quickly scrambled to his feet and pointed an accusing finger at Marik.
 
"How dare you kiss me, you filthy human!?" Malik said as he wiped his lips off with the back of his hand.
 
Marik also stood up and glared at Malik. "Your stupidity and impulsive temper almost got all of us in imminent danger!" Marik shouted. "I was doing you a favor! And even though you won't admit it, you are a human too!"
 
Malik was stunned by Marik's outburst and just glared at the boy in response.
 
...
 
Seto pushed Jou back onto the bed and got on top of him, their lips never breaking contact. Jou hastily pushed Seto's jacket off and separated their lips for mere seconds so that he could take of the brunet's jacket. Seto repeated the action as he ripped Jou's shirt off of his body. Their lips once again met as Seto sucked on Jou's bottom lip greedily. Their bare chests were rubbing against the others and heat surrounded their bodies. Jou and Seto's tongues fought feverishly for dominance but Seto was the victor and explored Jou's warm cavern making sure that he did not miss any crevice in the blonde's mouth. While Seto was doing this, Jou placed his hands on Seto's back and stroked him gently. Seto slowly made his way down Jou's neck, leaving small bite marks in his path, which caused Jou to gasp in pleasure. Neither of them knew how far this was going to go nor did either of them know how far they wanted it to go. They both knew that they had just proclaimed their love for each other only minutes ago but the lust that had been latent in both of them since they met had awaken with ferocity and had taken over their senses. It might have stopped there or it might have gone all the way but neither of them would ever know when a loud shout stopped them both in their tracks.
 
"JOU!?" Yugi said in disbelief. There was his best friend with no shirt on, flushed cheeks, and who was panting heavily with a shirtless Seto on him who was also panting. The lust that had filled Jou's eyes quickly vanished as the blonde jumped up, forcing Seto off of him. Yugi turned and ran out of the room down the hallway in embarrassment and shock but Jou was not that far behind him.
 
"Yuge, wait!" Jou said and stopped when Yugi turned violently.
 
"I can't believe you! I'm hours away from having the only person who has ever loved me taken away from me and all you can do is-is have sex with Seto!" Yugi said in anger.
 
Jou felt hurt fill his heart. " Yuge, no it's not like that. We weren't having...sex. We were just kissing" Jou said slowly.
 
Yugi glared. "Would you have had sex with him if I didn't walk in" Yugi asked.
 
Jou looked down at the ground. "I...I don't know" Jou said quietly.
 
Yugi just shook his head. "Thanks for forgetting about me" Yugi said.
 
At this point, Jou began to glare at Yugi, which had shocked the boy. "You know what Yuge, I do everything for you! I gave up my prior life for you! Just so you wouldn't be alone! So I could watch out for you! And how do you repay me? By getting mad when I finally find someone who loves me!? I'm sorry that Anzu is a crazy bitch and is trying to take Yami away from you but we're all doing the best we can! I apologize if I got distracted for a few minutes but a true friend would be happy for me!" Jou said before walking back to his room and slamming the door. Yugi glared at the door angrily before walking to his room and slamming his door as well.

Yuri: Please Review. And just an author's note, Anzu has realized by now that Malik and Ryou are two different people from Bakura and Marik and she was talking about Malik when she said 'cute little Egyptian.' Love you all!
