Chapter 3: Flying with an Angel

It is now a Friday in the middle of June. Yugi had gained more confidence with help from his new friend Yami. His parents were happy with their son's confidence boost. Yami and Yugi would always walk to the park and talk. Harry hasn't tried to kill Yugi for a while which was a little suspicious. They were unaware that they were above Harry's Laboratory.
Harry was watching them from his lab. He was working on a huge missile. It was composed of the most unstable elements of science. He somehow managed to contain them so the missile wouldn't just blow up in his face. He worked on it for a month, and it was now finished.
'Let's see if Yami can stop this,' Harry thought. He aimed the missile and fired.
The missile shot out of a secret area of the park and rocketed toward Yugi and Yami. Yugi and Yami were just relaxing by the pond when Yami's keen senses picked up something.
"What's wrong Yami?" Yugi asked.
"There's something heading this way and fast," Yami responded. He saw the missile coming from literally a mile away. He scooped up Yugi and spread his wings.
Fortunately, no one else was there. The missile covered 3/4 of its distance in seconds. Yami wasted no more time. He flew up and away. Yugi watched a missile sail under them. But getting away wasn't going to be easy. For the missile was locked onto Yugi. It simply followed them. Yugi looked back and saw the missile gaining on them. He screamed.
"What is it Yugi?" Yami asked.
"That missile is gaining on us," Yugi responded.
Yami looked back and saw that the missile was gaining on them. He flew faster in hopes of shaking the missile. The missile followed them no matter what Yami tried to shake it so far. He thought that he could shake it with evasive maneuvers, but the missile still followed them.
"It's probably locked onto my heat," Yugi said.
"That's exactly it. It's a heat-seeking missile," Yami said. He saw that he was in the mountains. "I've got an idea Yugi," he said, as he appeared to be on a collision course with one of the mountains.
Yugi was very nervous. "What are you doing?" he asked.
"Trust me Yugi. We're not going to crash into the mountain; the missile is," Yami responded.
Yugi was still confused, but he trusted Yami. Yami continued head on for the mountain. When about a foot away, Yami pulled up and flew above the mountain. He was above the mountain in a few minutes. He hovered as he and Yugi watched the missile blow up on the side of the mountain.
"Let's go home," Yugi said.
"Okay Yugi," Yami said as he flew for their neighborhood. He arrived and landed on the front porch in a couple of hours. He retracted his wings.
Cindy greeted Yami as he landed with Yugi. She saw the grim looks on their faces. "What happened?" she asked.
"Yami and I were relaxing in the park when a missile came toward us. Yami flew up in time, but the missile followed us. It was a heat seeker locked on my heat. Yami tried evasive maneuvers, but the missile still followed us. Yami finally destroyed it by making it slam into a mountain," Yugi responded.
"How did you do that Yami?" Cindy asked.
"I started a collision course with the mountain. When I was a foot away, I pulled up. The missile couldn't change course due to its speed and blew up when it hit the mountain. I then flew here," Yami responded.
"Thank you for saving my son," Cindy said.
"That's what I was sent here for," Yami said smiling.
"Mom, can Yami spend the weekend here?" Yugi asked.
"I don't see why not. He can spend the following week if he wants," Cindy responded.
Yugi and Yami went inside the house and into Yugi's room.
"So you're Lutheran," Yami said.
Yugi was shocked at first by that statement but regained his composure. "Oh yeah, you're an angel. You already know," he said.
"Yes I do. All the angels in heaven as well as God himself are pleased with you. You give the term Christian a good name, just as Pastor Gray does," Yami said. He was on alert now.
Harry was on the roof of the house directly above Yugi's room. He cut a hole in the top with a powerful laser. He dropped in, and Yami stood in front of Yugi. Cindy had come into the room to see Yami standing in front of Yugi and Harry eyeing them down.
"How unpleasant of you to drop in Harry," Yami said.
"How do you know me?" Harry asked confused.
"Angels know everyone's name and where they stack up," Yami responded. "You had it good before you purposely murdered your wife Lila. She was right. Having you fired was the best way to help you. She intended to help you realize what happens to those who do wrong without the job knowing about it," he added.
"She deserved it. She lied to me behind my back," Harry said.
"There are times when lying is a good thing. Hers was one of them. She did the right thing because you could've had worse consequences if the Federal Government found out what you were doing," Yami said.
"Enough talk," Harry said. "Now it's time for you to die, starting with her." He aimed his laser and fired at Cindy.
"Oh no you don't!" Yami shouted as he ran out of the way with Cindy. He looked like a speeding blur as he ran back to Yugi with Cindy. "It seems as though help is arriving," he said.
True to what he said, three Federal Agents dropped into the room.
"Nice of you guys to drop in," Yami said.
"We'll take it from here Yami," Mike said.
Yami nodded and led Yugi outside. He firmly wrapped his arms around Yugi and spread his wings. "I know just the thing to relax you," he said as he flew off.
They were over the city in seconds. A few minutes later, they were higher than the tallest building there. Yami flew slowly so Yugi could get a good look. Yugi was amazed by the view of the city from so high above it. Everything looked teeny weenie, making him feel like a giant. Yami smiled at Yugi's amazement and flew on. They soared over the Bronx. Two hours later, they arrived in Manhattan. Yami flew lower because he wanted Yugi to get an up close and personal look at one of the most famous landmarks (A/N: I bet you already know what I'm talking about. If you don't, you will).
"Why are we going lower?" Yugi asked.
"Because I want to show you something," Yami responded.
They were there in half an hour. Yugi recognized the tall blue figure immediately.
"This is the Statue of Liberty. I've always read about it and saw pictures of it, but this is the first time I've seen it up close like this," Yugi said.
Yami slowly circled the Statue of Liberty. Yugi got a good look at it. It was magnificent as it stood hundreds of feet high on a tall platform. The torch is what really stood out to Yami. The torch expressed the burning desire of freedom, and how that desire burns bright in the heart of every American. After circling two more times, Yami flew farther over the Hudson River. He took one arm from around Yugi and made an arch over them. Yugi was amazed. The sun's light made the water arch more amazing.
"You're amazing," Yugi said.
"This is a tiny percentage of what I can do," Yami said as the water went back into its place. "Are you ready to go back?" he asked.
"Yes," Yugi responded. "Before witnessing the murder, I thought I couldn't feel any safer. Now that you're here, I feel safer than I could've ever imagined," he added.
"My wish came true. The day you were born was the day that I hoped to be there for you. Now I am," Yami said as he headed for Yugi's house.
The city was lit up becuase it was already dark. The sight was almost enough to take Yugi's breath away. They arrived at Yugi's house a few hours later. Yugi rang the doorbell, and Cindy opened the door for him and Yami. Roger was sitting on the couch. He saw Yugi and Yami and walked over to them.
"I would first like to thank you for rescuing my son," Roger said.
"It's no trouble at all," Yami said.
"Did you have a good time with Yami?" Roger asked Yugi.
"I had a blast. Yami took me flying over the city. It looks amazing from high in the air. Then he took me to see the Statue of Liberty. It was outstanding, especially the torch which stands for the burning passion of freedom. Then he flew further down the Hudson River and created a water arch. The sun shining on the water as it went down made the arch very amazing. Then he headed back here. To see the city lit up frm the air was breath taking," Yugi responded.
"I'd say that you did have a blast," Cindy said.
"Now to fix the hole in Yugi's room," Yami said. He went into Yugi's room and used his powers to fix the hole in the ceiling.
Yugi came in and saw the hole no longer there. "Thanks," he said.
"You're welcome," Yami said. "It's getting late. You need to eat something before going to bed."
Yugi nodded and went into the living room. Cindy heated his dinner for him, and he ate. Half an hour after eating, he got into his pajamas and went to bed. As always, Yami watched over him. The next morning at 9am, Yami awakened Yugi.
"Do you want to go to the beach?" Yami asked.
"Sure," Yugi responded. He bathed and got dressed. He went to have his breakfast. "Can I go to the beach with Yami?" he asked his mother.
"I don't see why not," Cindy responded. "You're in good hands with Yami."
Yugi and Yami went outside. Yami scooped up Yugi and spread his wings. He flew off for the beach.




I'll end it here because I want to save the beach part for the next chapter. Preview for Chapter 4: Fun at the Beach: Yugi and Yami spend an entire day at the beach. It will be pure fun, no evil plots attached. Yami shows Yugi the mysteries that the ocean holds beneath its waters.
