Inertia
'I am a plaything, used and abused. They pick me off the shelf and then throw me in the garbage. I have no soul, no heart, they are gone, replaced by black nothingness. I feel no regret, no love, nothing, no emotions. What did I do to deserve this? Everyone, stay away, I am no longer pure'

Yami ran doggedly through the streets of Domino; he had been searching for over 2 hours now with no luck at finding Yugi. 'Aibou...what evil provoked you to run away?' the spirit thought confusedly. Desperately, he prodded around in his head for any indication that Yugi had re-established their link, but luck was not on his side for that either. Yugi had completely cut him off, leaving an ache in Yami's heart that would not be quieted. His crimson eyes peered into the darkness ahead, spotting the sign that gave directions to the park where the 2 look alikes had gone to from time to time. 'Please let him be okay' Yami pleaded to the gods. 'I don't know what I'll do if he isn't...'
*~*
Ranger carefully laid Yugi down on the bed, then crawled on top of the small boy. "Ranger hopes you like it fast and rough 'cause that's what he likes" The stranger whispered hotly into the boy's small ear. Yugi shuddered as Ranger's putrid breath blew across his face. He didn't want this...not in one way shape or form but for some reason, he just couldn't seem to stop himself. Maybe he would end up finding true love after all. The dirty man grinned as he started to take off Yugi's clothes and throw them on the wooden floor, not caring where they landed. The gray sweatshirt was nearly ripped off his body, quickly followed by his baggy black pants. Yugi just laid there on the sheetless bed with only his navy blue boxers on, shivering and looking very vulnerable. Ranger dragged his tongue across his parched lips as his hazel eyes took in the boy's small form. This boy was heavenly; he couldn't wait to ram himself in, to make Yugi bleed. Not taking his eyes off him for one moment, he blindly walked backwards to the splintered desk and opened a drawer. He then pulled out a stiff leather whip and slapped it against his hand, creating a loud cracking noise.
Yugi flinched slightly. A whip? What was Ranger going to do? He was having second thoughts as the man approached the bed again, this time kneeling beside the small teen. "I told you Ranger likes it rough" he repeated, grinning evilly, quickly turning Yugi on his back, holding him there with sheer strength alone. The tri-color haired boy let of a cry of surprise as this happened, which soon turned into a cry of pain as the whip was brought down on his back, leaving a long thin red welt that contrasted with the bruises there from the previous night. One tear fell, than another till they refused to stop coming. Yugi could feel Ranger's erection digging into his upper part leg and winced inwardly. He had asked for this, for it was now his destiny.
*~*
Yami sat down miserably on a bench in the park. It had started to rain, turning everything damp and cold. Things couldn't possible get any worse...As if on cue, the rain started to come down harder, instantly soaking all of Yami's clothes, chilling him to the bone. He just sat there though, lost in is own thoughts. This happened to be the place where him and Yugi first admitted that they liked each other.
*~* Flashback*~*
The sun shone down on the spirit and millenium puzzler holder as they walked side by side through the trees. The silence between them was very uncomfortable. Over the past week, Yami didn't seem to be able to repress his growing feelings for the smaller boy. He knew that he had fallen in love with Yugi from the very start but he knew that his hikari would not love him back. What light could love the dark? Yugi grinned up at Yami, trying not to notice the distant look on Yami's face.
'He's been so quiet lately, maybe Jou was wrong...maybe Yami doesn't like me the way I like him' he thought worriedly. 'I don't know if I could stand to be hurt by him...I mean, what dark would love light?'
The ancient pharaoh noticed some skaters coming their way. He eyed them warily as they got closer, not slowing down at all. "Look out!" one of the cried. "We can't stop!" Yugi, lost in his own thoughts didn't hear this and just kept on walking, straight towards them.
The spirit's crimson eyes widened drastically as he realized that Yugi was in danger of being run-over. "Aibou!" he cried, pushing Yugi out of the way with such a force that it caused both of them to lose their balance and fall on the grass, Yami landing on top of Yugi. The skaters rushed by, creating a gust of wind. Finally noticing their position they were in, Yami blushed slightly and quickly got off the small teen and offered him a hand up. "Are you okay?"
Yugi nodded, looking a bit dazed. "What did you say before you pushed me out of the way?" he asked curiously, taking the offered hand. Yami surpresed a shudder if delight as he felt Yugi's hand touch his. Everytime they were together, a delicious warm feeling spread through his body, as though trying to warm up his heart and soul, it felt like Yugi's soul was reaching out to caress his.
"I called you aibou, it means partner" he replied nervously. He had never actually called Yugi one of the nicknames that he had thought up. Yugi thought carefully for a moment, not really wanting to let go of the spirits hand. Even though he hated to admit it to himself Yugi had fallen head over heels for Yami and there was no ignoring his feelings now. Noticing that Yugi still looked a bit dazed, Yami crouched down to eye level, looking very worried. "Are you sure you're okay, aibou?" He hit himself mentally for letting another 'aibou' slip out of his mouth. Yugi was jerked out of his thoughts as he noticed how close he and Yami were...close enough to share a kiss.
"I'm better than I have been in awhile" he whispered, heart pounding furiously before leaning over and gently pressing his lips to Yami's. The spirit's eyes widened again, this time in shock. Yugi was...kissing him...The warm feelings washed over him again, this time stronger than ever. It opened the link that Yugi and him shared, letting the young one's emotions pour through. They all hit Yami at once, sending his mind reeling; he could sense fear, and loneliness. But more of the love and innocence his hikari possessed. His eyes slowly slide shut as he placed both his hands on Yugi's shoulders, deepening the kiss.
It was Yugi's turn to be surprised as he felt Yami kiss him back. He was even more surprised when Yami opened their mind link, letting his emotions spill into Yugi's head. The spirit had never let him in before...Yugi could sense Yami's own fear...fear of being rejected by Yugi. A wonderful feeling filled his body making him feel loved...a feeling that could not be replaced by anyone one else but the ancient pharaoh. 'He likes me' Yugi thought happily. 'He's not backing away!' The kiss ended a minute later as both of them needed to breathe. "Yami...I...." He started to say before Yami reached out and placed one finger to his lips, causing Yugi to be quiet.
"Shhh, my hikari. I do not think there are words to describe this" he whispered, eyes warm and gentle for once. The smaller of the pair offered him a gentle smile.
"You're wrong Yami," he said quietly. "There are words"
"And what would those be?"
"I love you"
*~*End Flashback*~*
Remembering this moment could not even bring a smile back to Yami's face. Suddenly, he felt a shadow over him and the rain seemed to stop falling...at least where he was. He looked up to see Jounouchi holding an umbrella over his head, looking very worried.
"Yami, what on earth are you doin' here?" the blonde asked curiously. "You shouldn't be out in the rain!" Yami simply adverted his gaze, determined not to show his tears infront of anyone, especially not Jou. Noticing that the spirit was his usual self, Jou sat down beside him and put a comforting arm around his shoulders. "Come on Yami, let's go back to my apartment and get you dried up and stuff" he suggested warmly. Wordlessly, the pharaoh stood and with Jou's arm still around him, the blonde led the way to his apartment.
*~*
Bakura's head suddenly jerked up as he felt a sharp pain run through his body. Ryou, who was reading a book beside his yami, noticed this sudden movement and looked at him. "Is something wrong Bakura?" he asked worriedly, scooting a bit closer. The spirit nodded.
"I'm not sure who exactly it is...but one of the millennium item holders his being hurt...badly" he mumbled in a half trance like state. Ryou's face paled slightly.
"You don't think it's Yugi...do you Bakura?" The white haired teen quickly shook his head.
"Yami wouldn't let anything happen to that boy...even though he is rather annoying" he replied, his usual scowl coming back into place on his face. His 'twin' merely laughed at this.
"Bakura, what did I say about calling people names?"
"You said it wasn't nice...but since when do I listen to you?"
Ryou thought about this for a moment before a secretive smile appeared on his face. "Since I...." He leaned over and whispered the rest in Bakura's ear. Standing up, he faked a loud yawn and stretched his arms up, causing his shirt to ride up, revealing a smooth white stomach. "I think I'll go to bed now....". But he never got a chance to finish his sentence as Bakura quickly stood up and hoisted Ryou over his shoulder like a sac of potatoes. "Bakura!" he squealed, "put me down!" The former tomb robber smirked evilly and proceeded to walk out of the room and up to Ryou's bedroom.
"Let's just see if you'll follow through on your promise...." He replied, evil smirk growing wider. Ryou gulped silently. He had a feeling that he was in for one sleepless night.
*~*
Yugi staggered out of the room after managing to get his clothes back on. He swore that he could feel something running down his leg and he shivered violently, trying not to imagine what it could be. Every bone in his body hurt, and he knew that the whip markings were going to scar. Ranger came out right after the small boy and scooped his up in his arms. "Ranger's going to take you to meet his friends now" he announced proudly, practically running down the stairs.
'Oh joy' Yugi thought, mind going numb. It seemed he was not privileged enough to be able to feel emotions for now, which was a good thing. He knew very well that yami could open their link by force...and he could not bear to hear the pharaoh's rejection that he knew was coming. 'Maybe the gods will kill me quickly...and not make me live this life of misery'.
*~*
Seto Kaiba's ears perked up when he heard the door to the apartment that he and Jou shared open and close. Smirking slightly to himself, he went out to greet his boyfriend. "Jou, where have you been?" he demanded, coming around the corner, pretending to be angry. "It was getting really late and I was..." His voice trailed off when he saw Jou...and a soaking wet Yami. "What are you doing here?' he asked curiously. Jounouchi looked up at Kaiba with pleading eyes.
"He's not talkin' much" he murmured as he gently pushed the spirit forward towards the kitchen. "Somethin' awful must have happened". Seto's eyes widened slightly as he followed the pair into the kitchen. The blonde forced Yami to sit back down. "Seto, could you get some towels?" Kaiba nodded silently and walked back out of the room. Jou sat in the chair across from Yami. "Now, tell me what's wrong" he asked gently. "You look like you're gonna cry or somethin'". "You and Yugi didn't have a fight, did you?" At the mention of Yugi's name, a single tear escaped from Yami's crimson eyes and rolled down his cheek.
"Yugi.... is gone Jou..." he whispered. "He's disappeared"
