Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Probationis Vitae ❯ Warnings ( Chapter 2 )

Warnings

AN: Sorry this took so long to get out. I probably would've had it out around Wednesday last week, but school and karate both got to hectic so I had no time and last night I couldn't because I had some friends spending the night.

I thank all those that have reviewed this:

bast4

Saiyan_Kitsune_Foxfire

Curtis Zidane Ziraa

Yugi Mutou

Koishii No Tenshi

Thank you all. And I appreciate all the suggestions you gave me.

Also, the note later on in this chapter is written in Latin and I'm sorry if I wrote something incorrectly but I'm only in Latin I and about half way through the curriculum.

Finally, I'm sorry for Selene's foul language later in this chapter, but you should understand once you know who exactly she's talking to.

/Yugi to Yami/

//Yami to Yugi//

~*~*~*~Last time~*~*~*~

Yami and I were watching a movie on the couch one night. We had planned the night alone just so we could be together. We were curled up on the couch and watching the movie when we heard the doorbell ring. Confused we both got up and headed for the door.

Not sensing any danger, I opened the door to the most shocking sight I've ever encountered. It was the Venators, and to say the least they all looked totally exhausted.

~*~*~*~On with the story~*~*~*~

To say the least, the Venators looked totally exhausted, though none more so than Selene and Damien. Derek was half-supporting a nearly unconscious Selene, who had several fresh bruises, scratches, and scrapes. Damien was being held up by Jake and Jason and was looking just as bad as Selene. The other three had a few bruises, scratches, and scrapes and did look near passing out, but Selene and Damien were by far the worst.

"Hey Yugi," Selene said once she looked up, "sorry to barge in, but do you mind if we spend the night?" After she said that, she fell unconscious, causing Derek to go slightly off balance. Yugi hurried and caught her and brought her in, letting Derek regain his balance. Yami did the same with Damien and he and the other follower Yugi into the living room.

Yugi placed Selene on one of the two armchairs and raised the leg rest so the chair wasn't straight up. Yami did the same with Damien while Jake, Jason, and Derek all collapsed onto the couch.

"What happened?" Yugi asked, worried. He'd never seen any of them in this bad a condition, ever.

"Can it wait until we wake up, `cause I'm going to pass out now." Jake said from his place to the right of Derek-who was in the middle-before his head fell forward, his red hair shading his face. Derek and Jason nodded in agreement before they too passed out.

/What do you think happened Yami?/ Yugi asked worried as he and Yami climbed up the stairs to their room.

//I don't know, Yugi, but we'll find out tomorrow.// Yami replied, trying to reassure his hikari, though both knew that he was nervous too.

/I guess you're right. I just get this feeling that whatever happened to them has something to do with us, and it's not good./ Yugi said as he got into his bed. Yami lay down behind him and wrapped an arm around Yugi's waist.

//Don't think about it tonight, just get some rest.// Yami said soothingly. Yugi nodded as both fell slowly asleep.

~*~*~

Yugi was the first to wake-up the next morning. He lay passively in Yami's arms for a while before deciding it was time to get up. He carefully unwrapped Yami's arms from his waist and got off the bed. He glanced at the clock and saw that it was already 10:30.

Yugi got a change of clothes-a midnight blue, cotton t-shirt and tight black jeans with his normal buckles-and went to take a shower. He came out fully dressed and went to wake Yami. He stood over the bed for a moment before he grinned a grin similar to Jake's whenever he gets a great idea. He leaned down and lightly placed a kiss on Yami's lips. He slowly added more pressure until he felt Yami start to respond, then he pulled back and snickered at Yami's disappointed groan.

Yami cracked one eye open before he said, "As much as I like being woken up that way, I have to say you've hung around Bakura, Marik, and the Venators too much. You're starting to become sadistic."

Yugi grinned as he said, "I know, but you love it. Anyway, it's almost 11 and time for you to get up."

Yami sighed and got up before Yugi grinned again and headed downstairs to check up on his friends. When he got down he saw that they were all still out cold. He sighed and headed into the kitchen.

/What do you want to eat?/ Yugi asked through the link.

//How about sandwiches wince it's too close to lunch for a breakfast.// Yami said.

/Okay then./ Yugi said before cutting off the link and starting on the food. Yami came down 20 minutes later in an outfit similar to Yugi's, though his shirt was black and sleeveless.

"They're still out?" Yami asked after he came out of the living room.

"Yup, as far as I know they have yet to wake up." Yugi replied. Right after he finished saying that there came a groan from the living room. It seems one of the Venators was waking up.

Yugi and Yami both headed to the living room and saw Selene sitting up from the chair. She yawned before looking over at the pair standing in the doorway.

"Good morning Yugi, Yami." She said before Yugi walked over and embraced her.

"Good morning to you too. Do you want to tell us what happened or wait till the others wake up?" Yugi asked.

"I think I'll wait. Can I take a shower now, though I'll need another pair of clothes." Selene said returning the embrace.

Yugi pulled back and said, "Sure, just raid my closet, some of the longer pants should fit you along with a shirt."

"Thanks." Selene said simply and got up to take her shower.

By 11:30 all the Venators had woken up, taken a shower-each having to borrow a set of clean clothes-, and were now seated around the kitchen table.

Selene was sitting in between Damien and Yugi-with Yami to Yugi's left-and her damp hair was pulled into a knot at the base of her neck. She was wearing a pair of leather pants and an emerald green sleeveless shirt she'd borrowed from Yugi. Damien, as usual, had his damp ebony hair pulled into a ponytail at the base of his neck. He'd borrowed a black t-shirt and a pair of jeans from Yami. Jake sat to Damien right with his normally spiked red hair loose around his face. He was wearing a pair of Yugi's jeans and a silver sleeveless top. Jason was to his right and his hair and clothes were similar to Jake's, only he was wearing a red top. Finally Derek had his hair loose and was wearing a pair of leather pants and a white t-shirt.

"So, now that you're all here, will you tell us exactly what's going on?" Yugi asked.

Selene nodded before saying, "It all started when we were on our latest mission. We were to steal back an old Egyptian book that a dealer a couple towns away had stolen. We got it no problem, but the next morning there was a written note beside the book, which rested on the kitchen table. Normally that wouldn't seem weird, but we knew that we'd placed the book into the safe in the hotel room the previous night. The note was a warning, but we didn't think anything of it. The next day, three days before we were scheduled to leave, the book, which had been placed into the safe again, was yet again on the kitchen table. And there was another note, the same warning. This time, though, it was carved into the table itself and the knife used lay beside the book. That completely freaked us out and we ran and we've been running for the past two weeks. Problem is that the someone, or more the like, the something that the note warned us about has been attacking us off and on, always at night. That's why we're all beat up."

Selene finished the story and Yami and Yugi stared at them all before Yugi said, "Do you still have the original note?"

"Yeah," Damien said before Selene pulled out what looked like a piece of parchment out of one of her pockets. The figures on it were all hieroglyphics.

"And here is the direct translation," Selene said before pulling out a sheet of notebook paper and placing it too in front of Yugi and Yami. It read:

"Venators-

Mone Ludum Lucidum et Umbram Obscuram cavére. Aenigma est in periculo. Ultion venibit é praeteritó. Monuimus vos.

~Vigilis"

"It's Latin isn't it?" Yugi asked, curious. He'd studied a little bit of Latin when he'd been with the Venators, but not much. "What does it mean?"

Selene pulled another piece of notebook paper out from a her pocket and placed it in front of the two. This one they could read, it said:

"Venators-

Warn the Light Game and the Dark Shadow to beware. The Puzzle is in danger. Revenge will be coming from the past. We have warned you.

~Watchmen

"So, what do you think it means?" Yami asked after a few seconds.

"Honestly? We have no idea. We came straight to you because we thought it might have to do with you. I does mention a "Light Game" and a "Dark Shadow." Yugi's name means game and he's the hikari or light between the two of you and your name, Yami, means darkness or shadow and you're the yami or darkness between the two of you. It was just a guess, but rather be safe than sorry, right?" Jason said.

Yugi nodded and they sat in silence for a moment. Then they heard the doorbell ring.

"I'll get it," Selene said, standing up. They heard her walk to the front door and open it. Then they heard a man's voice coming from the door, though they couldn't make out what he was saying. But it was obvious that Selene did NOT like whoever was at the door because they clearly made out her answer.

"Like hell I'll let you see him." She said. The person at the door said something to which Selene replied, "I don't give a shit what kind of damn paperwork you have you fucking bastard, I'm not letting you in to see him!"

This time they could vaguely make out what the person said, "I have every right to see him, now let me past!" Yugi thought he recognized the voice, though he couldn't remember where, and it sent shivers up and down his spine.

"Screw you!" came Selene reply, surprising them all. "There is no way in hell that I'd let a son of a bitching, fucking bastard like you into this house! Now, get your fucking ass off this property and go screw one of your whores why don't you!"

"Let me past, or I'll make you!" the man at the door threatened, and rather stupidly at that. Anyone who knew Selene knew you never said anything like that to her face or behind her back.

"I'd like to see you damn well try you shit face!" Selene said. Then there was a slap and a loud bang. They guessed that Selene had probably slapped the guy and slammed the door in his face.

There was silence for a few seconds before Selene walked into the kitchen. To everyone's surprise, her face was ghost white, though anger still burned like fire in her emerald eyes. She walked back over to her seat, place her arms-folded-onto the table, and buried her face into them. They heard her muttering very original curses in several different languages before she seemed to calm down a little and stopped cursing.

"Who was it?" Yugi asked, wondering what could've caused that kind of reaction from Selene.

Selene looked up and said on sentence that seemed to make time freeze for all in that room. "It was your father, Yugi. He's come to take you back."

TBC…..

AN: So, what do you think? Please review and tell me. I'll try and get the next chapter out soon, but I'm not exactly sure what I'm going to write so it may take a while. I will try to get it out within the next week though.

Thanks again to all those that reviewed.
