Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Late Night Visit ❯ One-Shot

The clock ticked eleven-fifty. Silver moonlight streamed through the window, gently embracing the sleeping blonde. His body tense, he clutched at his sheets, caught up in the grips of a nightmare.

In the darkened room, the apparition of a young woman with thick blonde hair appeared, a saddened smile upon her face. Gently, the woman seated herself on the edge of the teen's bed and began to soothingly pet his hair, the sleeping blonde relaxing into the touch.

With a blink of her sky blue eyes, she glanced up to see another figure enter the room, this one a man with soft amber eyes and hair the color of moonlight. As he looked upon the boy, he glanced at the woman, a smile upon his lips.

"He's a strong boy, ne?" the man spoke quietly, so as not to disturb the sleeping one.

"I know," she whispered, glancing back at the teen. "And he'll only grow stronger each day."

With a soft sigh, the man kneeled next to the bed, peering into the boy's face. "It must be hard on him, unable to tell his friends about us."

"If only he knew his fears were groundless." The woman sighed sadly. "His friends will love him no matter what, especially the little one."

The man bit his bottom lip and glanced at the clock.

Eleven-fifty-nine.

He looked back to the woman. "It's almost time. We need to leave."

The woman nodded mutely, tears gently welling in her eyes. Without a sound, she leaned down and placed a chaste kiss upon the boy's temple. Before vanishing from sight she then moved her lips to his ear and whispered, "I love you my little one. And remember this - it'll be alright to tell them…"

The man looked upon the boy, a proud smile curving his lips. Before he left the mortal realm, he reached into his pocket and withdrew two cards, placing them upon a stack of Duel Monsters cards on the nightstand next to the bed. Glancing back at the boy, he caressed the blonde's cheek and whispered, "I'm proud of you, my son."

The clock struck midnight .

With a sudden jerk, Jounouchi sat up in his bed, narrowed eyes searching the room, and finding it empty. Relaxing, he was ready to fall backwards onto the bed and resume his slumber, when two sloppily placed cards on his deck caught his eye. He reached over to straighten them when he noticed what they were.

Toon World and the Blue Eyes Toon Dragon.

His eyes widened slightly and he once more looked about his room, two words escaping his lips.

"Mama? Papa?"

*grins at muses who are glaring at her* Well?

Yami and Kura : …. *glance at each other*

Yami: The reviews that wanted a sequel to Adopted might be happy.

Kura : *growl* They'd better be. I didn't waste my talent and insight on nothing!

Yami: What talent and insight?

Kura : *glare; growl*

Angel: *ignores the two; smile; wags tail* I so happy! I wrote a one-shot in one sitting and it's not eve night yet (most one-shots are written when I should be sleeping)! And now, for the RQaABtRCA (I shortened it! Yay!), the only one I can really come up with is:

Q - How the heck did Pegasus die?

A - Angel: Well, I actually have two theories to this. One is when Kura ripped out Pegasus's Eye, he died of blood loss (I mean, when someone's eye gets ripped out - there might just be a little blood). Two would be, when the Eye got taken away, he commit suicide to be with Cynthia since he couldn't revive her.

Angel: And that's it. If you have a question, put it in a review and I'll get around to answering it sometime. And, as always, I don't own YuugiOu. Ja ne!
