Chapter 9: LeaveYour Heart Open and It'll Fall On The Floor (Someone Could Step On It)

 

Yugi stood there in awe, anger rising, sadistic need to throttle Altus growing....he had a sword, yes, but that wasn't good enough. Where was a gun when you needed it?

Altus turned his working eye to Yugi.

It smirked.

`Must....resist....urge...to....kill.....y'know, `cause then I'll die.'

“Oh, Indigo the Noble! You've finally arrived!” He said, breaking away from h-

KILL, KILL, KILL!

“I was afraid you weren't going to make it.” He mocked with a sneer.

KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL!

“After all, I wanted you to see if anything's incongruous with my new toy.” Altus gestured to the No One in front of him.

His.....

TOY.....

KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL!

Yugi snarled. He could FEEL that anger welling up inside of him, he was READY to KILL something. And that something was the spitting image of him with a repulsive smirk, disgustingly morphed voice, one pupiless eye...

And had just KISSED the No One of Tea Gardner and DARED to call her HIS TOY!

KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL, KILL!

Altus grinned.

“Are you mad at me, Indigo the Noble? I just asked if anything was out of place.”

No, NOTHING was out of place. THAT was the problem.

It looked so much like her- despite the dead like pale skin and soulless, dark bagged eyes -he almost mistook it for Tea.

Almost.

But even then, his heart tore.

Yugi placed his blade in position. Altus frowned.

“How loutish. You didn't answer my question.”

“I don't have too. You know the answer. You did it on purpose.”

“Only because I want you to see; Leave your heart open, it'll fall on the floor. Someone's bound to step on it. Just like Tea might someday when you realize the truth.”

“Whaddaya mean, `the truth'?” Altus shrugged.

“Why, Indigo, that it's HER fault.”

Tea's fault? What?

“You've lost everything you had that even I SOMEWHAT admired; your power, your spirit, your women, your very LIFE Indigo-it's all changed. You even lost your friend because of Tea after you quit Blue Streak.”

What was he talking about?

“C'mon, you KNOW Kaiba got pissed. How could he not? You quit because of a woman, someone ELSE'S opinion; the one thing you said you'd never do.”

That's what he was mad about that day? He thought Yugi quit because of Tea? No.....No, Tea was only a tenth of the reason.

Aw man, when they got out of there, he had some SERIOUS explaining to do.

“But, if you don't believe me, I understand. If you went home now, I might not bother you for awhile.” Altus spat, walking back to the No One. “After all,” he began, wrapping an arm around her. He smirked. “I've always liked your taste in girls. I've always found them.....quite enjoyable to be alone with, if you catch my drift.”

Alone.....

Yugi clenched his teeth.

Altus was fu***** dead.

 

“MOKUBA!” Korjata smirked. Ah, how he loved that terrified look on Seto's face. It was quite refreshing. He looked at Altia. According to that grin on her face, she had a similar opinion.

“YOU LEAVE HIM ALONE!” Korjata shook his head.

“Now, Seto, why on EARTH would I do such a thing? I wouldn't be able to torture you so well if I did.”

“You sick freak.” Seto scowled. Korjata had to fight down that grin; he'd have his fun later. Right now he just wanted to fight Seto.

Then he'd watch him wreathe. Get business done first.

“Oh, and Din-Chan, I don't think you've had the pleasure of meeting your No One.”

“That's Alternate.” Altia removed her left bracelet, tossing it in the air. It came down and expanded, now a huge circular blade. “My name is Altia the Devious.” Din nodded, extending her Rapiers into a defensive position.

“Dinayah the Wise.” Korjata pulled his weapon, a spear-tipped staff.

“Seto Kaiba, Cobalt, Seto the Powerful; are you ready to fight me for your brother's life?” Seto gripped his Wave Swords angrily. That scowl never leaving his face as he stood in position. Korjata focused on the wall in back of him, a small blade forcing out of the wall.

“Just shut up and fight me.”

“I've already started.” Korjata sneered. By the time Seto looked, it had already emerged from the wall.

Without his powers, Seto the Powerful wasn't so powerful.

Isn't THAT ironic?
