Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Sad Moments ❯ Chapter 12

Yami sits next to Joey, his eyes filled with concern as the police enter the room. Joey visibly starts shaking not knowing what he's going to do. He doesn't believe he's strong enough yet to be able to tell them his story. Both officers look at Joey. “Hello, I'm Officer Darkshime and this is my partner Officer Nashime. Which one of you is Joey.” He asks looking between Yami and Joey. Yami, looking at Joey, places a reassuring hand on his shoulder.

I hate feeling like this

I'm so tired of trying to fight this

Joey looks up at the officers. “I am” he says continuing to shake. “Is there anything specific that you would like me to talk about?” Joey asks as a few tears well up into his eyes. “No dear. We'll just start by asking you a few questions.” Officer Nashime says smiling sweetly. “We were informed that you have been abused, is this true?” Officer Darkshime says. Joey nods his head slowly. “Yes it is.” “May I ask who's been abusing you Joey?” Officer Nashime asks.

“I'm kinda scared to say, but it was my father. He has been for years. I've gone to the police before. It's just nobody believes me because of my track record.” He says looking at the ground ashamed of himself.

I'm asleep and all I dream of

Is waking to you

-Scene Change-

Kaiba Mansion

Seto looks down at Mokuba worriedly. “Oh Mokuba what's wrong with you. If anything happens to you. I don't know what I'll do.” He closes his eyes slightly hoping some rest will help ease his mind as well as help him think of how to help Mokuba recover. He eventually falls asleep, but it isn't peaceful. His mind is raked with memories and emotions he hadn't felt in years.

Tell me that you will listen

Your touch is what I'm missing

And the more I hide I realize I'm slowly losing you

Seto's Dream

Seto sits in yet another study session learning things he doesn't think he'll ever use. He looks down at the problem he's working on when he hears the door open. He snaps out of the small trance he was in and turns towards the door. Mokuba slowly walks into the room. “Big Brother.” Mokuba says running over to him. “Mokuba what are you doing here. If Gozaburo finds you here he'll… I don't know what he'll do, but I don't want you hurt.” “But Seto, I was worried about you. I hadn't seen or heard from you in forever.” Mokuba says.

Seto turns slightly in his chair and hugs Mokuba. “I know and I'm sorry for that, I've just been real busy. If I can I'll make some room for you, but unfortunately it's up to Gozaburo on what I do and when I do it.” “Ok big brother.” “If I were you I'd get out of here and quick. I don't know when he'll come in here.” Mokuba nods slightly and turns running from the room.

Seto sighs shaking his head slightly. He looks down at the work he'd been working on earlier. He finishes the last problem on that page when he hears the door open again. He turns slightly and sees Gozaburo standing in the doorway holding Mokuba by the collar of his shirt. Seto then looks up at Gozaburo tilting his head wondering what he wanted. “Was he in your room earlier Seto?” “If he was why would it matter? I'm done with all my assignments for today and tomorrow as well.”

Gozaburo drops Mokuba on the ground and then makes his way towards Seto. “Don't be smart with me boy. You know my rules and you disobeyed them. There will be consequences for his and your actions.” Seto stands and runs towards Mokuba. “You will not touch him if you still wish for me to do any work.” Seto says standing protectively over him.

“Know your place Seto and get back over here now.” Seto shakes his head and wraps his arms around Mokuba. “You listen to me Seto, if you don't get over here right now I will make you regret that you ever knew who I am.” Seto shakes slightly and slowly releases Mokuba. He walks slowly over to Gozaburo and falls to the floor in front of him. Hoping this will help his situation.

Mokuba runs to his brother and hugs him whispering. “Seto please don't do this. Please.” Seto looks at Mokuba and lifts his hand ruffling his hair slightly. “I have to. I'm sorry.” Gozaburo reaches down and grabs Mokuba, picking him up and walks to the door, dropping him outside. “Go to your room and don't come out till you are told understood.”

Mokuba nods running to his room tears welling up into his eyes. Seto shakes as he hears Gozaburo shut and lock his bedroom door. He turns his head slightly scared of what was to come next.

End Dream

Comatose

I'll never wake up without and overdose of you

I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe

Les I feel you next to me

You take the pain I feel…

Seto sits up quickly looking around wondering how his mind brings such things to his mind. Seto looks down at Mokuba his eyes widen slightly

Waking up to you never felt so real

I don't wanna sleep, I don't wanna dream

Cause my dreams don't comfort me

The way you make me feel

-Scene change-

Moutou Residence

They all look at Joey. “When was the most recent?” Officer Nashime asks. “A few days ago. It resulted in me having to go to the hospital. I just got out today.” Joey says looking up slightly. Officer Darkshime looks at Joey. “Is there any proof of injuries?” Joey stands slowly nodding his head. He then slowly takes his shirt off. Both officers gasp looking at Joey. They see bandages with blood starting to show through. He turns around slowly. They see more bandages as well as new and old scars crisscrossing along his back.

“Is there anymore?” Officer Nashime asks. Joey nods his head and slowly pulls his shirt on. “I… I don't wish to show those thought.” Joey says looking at the ground. Yami looks at Joey. “Joey is it because of Officer Nashime?” Joey nods slightly.

She stands. “It's understandable. Is there anywhere specific I should go?” She asks looking towards Yami. “Let me take you to the front of the house. We'll give them some privacy.” She nods and follows him out of the room.

Joey looks at Officer Darkshime as he slowly undoes his pants taking them off. The officer winces slightly looking at Joey. Joey slides a corner of his boxers up. The officer gasps seeing tiny cuts all across his inner thighs. Some looking deeper than other. Joey drops that corner and pulls them down slightly, there are even more cuts along that section of his stomach. Joey pulls his pants back on and fall backwards on the couch tears welling into his eyes. A few slide down his cheeks.

Yami and Officer Nashime make their way towards where they were sitting earlier. Yami looks at Joey and places a hand on his shoulder. Joey looks up at Yami as another small tear escapes and slides down his cheek. Yami sits down next to Joey patting his back ever so gently. Joey places his head against Yami's shoulder as he starts crying. Both officers look at him sympathetically not really knowing what to say to him at that moment in time.

Waking up to you never felt so real

I hate living without you

Dead wrong to ever doubt you

But my demons lay in waiting…

“That'll be all for today alright. We shall call you in a few days to set up another appointment if need be.” Officer Darkshime says making his way towards the door. Officer Nashime stands and walks towards Joey. She places a hand on his shoulder. “Everything will be ok I promise. You'll get justice we both promise.”

Joey nods his head slightly keeping his head against Yami's shoulder. He then looks towards them as he watches them leave the house. He sighs. “I'm glad that's over with for now. Yami, I'm going to go lay down for a while. Tell Yug not to disturb me.” Joey stands slowly heading towards the staircase. He starts climbing the stairs towards the room he's been sharing with Yugi. He opens the door and slowly walks to the bed collapsing on top of it. He sighs closing his eyes drifting off to sleep.

Tempting me away

Oh how I adore you

Oh how I thirst for you

Oh how I need you

-Scene Change-

Kaiba Mansion

Seto stands running through the mansion looking for Mokuba. He yells a couple of times never receiving an answer, he continues searching. He eventually makes his way towards the kitchen hoping to find Mokuba hiding in there eating a small snack. He enters slowly and lets out a sigh of relief. He sees Mokuba sitting at the table with a small bowl of soup sitting in front of him.

Comatose

I'll never wake up without and overdose of you

I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe

Les I feel you next to me

You take the pain I feel…

Seto walks over to Mokuba and sits down next to him. “Mokuba you scared me. I woke up and you weren't there. Why did you leave?” Mokuba looks up at him. “You were sleeping and I didn't want to wake you up big brother. I didn't think you'd mind.” “I don't know. I was just scared since I woke up and you were gone. I didn't know where you were. “Seto says sighing again.

“Are you feeling any better Mokuba?” Seto says looking at Mokuba. Mokuba nods his head smiling at his older brother slightly. “I'm feeling a little better big brother. I don't know what was wrong earlier but I feel better now.” Seto nods slightly, “I'm glad you're feeling better, but you should still be resting.” Mokuba tilts his head slightly looking at Seto. “Big brother, are you feeling alright.” “Yes Mokuba why do you ask?” Mokuba stands and walks closer to Seto, “Cause you look kinda pale big brother.”

He places his hand on Seto's forehead. “I feel fine Mokuba. Don't worry about me.” “But I do Seto. I worry about you all the time. You work to hard and you wear yourself out. And I've noticed how you hardly eat anything anymore. I just worry for you.”

Waking up to you never felt so real

I don't wanna sleep, I don't wanna dream

Cause my dreams don't comfort me

The way you make me feel

Seto sighs slightly “I'll be fine Mokuba. I'll start being around more so you can keep an eye on me alright kiddo.” He says ruffling Mokuba's hair slightly. “Thanks big brother.” Mokuba shakes his head slightly after Seto finishes ruffling his hair to straighten it out. “Do you want to go watch a movie in the other room big brother? We haven't done that together in a long time.” “Sure kiddo lets go watch a movie, you can choose what movie we watch too.”

Mokuba jumps up and down slightly running into the other room to go pick out the movie. Seto smiles looking to where Mokuba just ran, he stands slowly and starts to make his way towards the TV room. Mokuba looks up slightly having just put the movie he wanted to watch in the DVD player, (I can't choose a good movie.. but its going to be horror.. the only movie I can think of is When a Stranger Calls cause I love that movie… anyway.. back to the story..)

Seto sits down on the couch slowly; Mokuba runs over to the couch and sits down next to Seto. Mokuba grabs the remote and hits play so the movie will start. Mokuba and Seto sit and watch the movie. Seto shakes his head thinking to himself `What an ignorant girl. Anyone would be able to tell that when her friend walks into the house and that she can't find the housemaid that there was something wrong.. Especially when the alarm goes off… what a stupid female.'

Mouto Residence

Yugi's Room

Joey lays on Yugi's bed tears sliding down his cheeks. “I can't believe I just did that. They don't need to know that there are more scars on my body, but those ones I do not wish to show.” He sighs slightly as he looks down at the floor. `Tomorrow I'm going to school no matter what Yug and gramps says. If I keep missing days I won't be able to graduate with my class. I don't care how much pain I'm in. That's why hospitals give you pain killers.'

He sits up wiping the tears from his face. He stands and leaves Yugi's room and slowly makes his way towards the bathroom to clean up slightly. He opens the door and looks at himself in the mirror. “I look like shit” he says quietly.
