Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Trials of Life ❯ Gone ( Chapter 4 )

Gone

AN: Chapter four! Yeah!

Disclaimer for this chapter is the fact that I don't own the song "If Only Tears Could Bring You Back" that is owned by Midnight Sons.

I need HELP with the genre. I have absolutely NO idea what it should be.

ALSO I need to know how many of you want Anzu(Tea)-bashing. This is basically a poll and I won't update the next chapter until I get at least three people telling me what they want.

Two people added me to their favorites list!!!! You don't know how happy that's made me!

Thanks to the following for reviewing:

//…..// is Yami to Yugi

~*~*~*~*~ is transition from song to story and back again

Finally, Selene will be in the next chapter and just as you wished, she is going to give it to every last one of them so bad that they won't know what hit them.

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

How will I start

Tomorrow without you here

Who's heart will guide me

When all the answers disappear

~*~*~*~*~

When Yami came home that night it was to a dark looking house. All the lights were off. `Strange,' Yami thought, `Yugi usually leaves at least one light on. Maybe he's asleep.'

As he reached for the key to the house he realized that the door was open and panicked. What if a thief or someone like that had come? What had happened to Yugi? Had he been hurt? Was he okay?

Yami quickly opened the door and shut and locked it behind him. Seeing that nothing seemed out of place in the card shop he quickly raced up stairs to where the bedrooms were. He opened the door to Yugi's room expecting to see Yugi, only to find it empty, devoid of any sign of life.

~*~*~*~*~

Is it too late

Are you too far gone to stay

This one's forever

Should never have to go away

~*~*~*~*~

Yami panicked and ran out of the doorway. First he opened Grandpa's room to see if Yugi was there asleep, as he would sometimes do when his grandpa was on an archeological dig as he was now. He didn't see anyone in there. Next he raced to his room only to find that it too was empty. He quickly searched every room in the house for his tri-haired hikari, only to find each and every room completely empty.

Next he tried the link, only to be met with a void where the link, that was once so strong that it seemed nothing and no one could break it, was no more.

~*~*~*~*~

What will I do

You know I'm only half without you

How will I make it through

~*~*~*~*~

Yami fell to his knees as he kept searching for the link he'd always shared with his hikari, still only finding the void. His hikari's presence had always been in the back of his mind, a reassuring light even in Ancient Egypt-though at the time he hadn't known what it was-but now it was gone. The bond the two of them shared had been severed.

His light half was gone.

~*~*~*~*~

If only tears could bring you back to me

If only love could find a way

What I would do, what I would give if you

Returned to me, someday

Somehow, someway

If my tears could bring you back to me

~*~*~*~*~

He got up and ran to Yugi's room, hoping praying that what his mind, body, and soul were screaming to be true was really false. Only to be confronted, once again, by an empty room. Though this time he did notice that some of the drawers were partially open as was the tin bank Yugi had used and a rather large backpack was gone. But none of that affected him as much as the last thing he noticed. The Millennium Puzzle was sitting on the desk, as though abandoned. Yami felt something run down his cheek and when he reached up to wipe it away, his hand came away wet. There were tears running down his face.

He was crying.

~*~*~*~*~

I'd cry you an ocean

If you'd sail on home again

Wings of emotion

Will carry you, I know they can

Just light will guide you

And your heart will chart the course

Soon you'll be drifting

Into the arms of your true north

Look in my eyes

And you will see a million tears have gone by

And still they're not dry

~*~*~*~*~

Yami, to say the least, was shocked. He couldn't remember the last time he cried, though he knew that it was long before he'd become pharaoh at the age of thirteen. The tears came faster and faster and soon he had buried his face in his hands and began to sob silently. Where had his light gone, why had he left? Had he, Yami, done something to drive his little hikari away? Through all the questions in his mind, one stood out above all the others.

Would he ever be able to bring his Yugi back?

~*~*~*~*~

If only tears could bring you back to me

If only love could find a way

What I would do, what I would give if you

Returned to me, someday

Somehow, someway

If my tears could bring you back to me

I hold you close

And shout the words I only whispered before

For one more chance, for one last dance

There's not a thing that I would not give and more

~*~*~*~*~

The last question shocked him. Not so much the question itself, but more the wording of the question. But Yugi was his, his hikari, his light. His soul mate. His muirn beatha dan. He hadn't realized it until just now, but he loved his hikari like no one else. Though not in the brotherly type way every one'd expect. More like the way he guessed that Bakura loved his own hikari. And he would do anything, anything just to bring him back into his arms, into his life. He'd shout out to the world that he loved his hikari.

Just to bring the one he loved back to him, back into his arms for forever and a day.

~*~*~*~*~

If only tears could bring you back to me

If only love could find a way

What I would do, what I would give if you

Returned to me, someday

Somehow, someway

If my tears could bring you back to me

~*~*~*~*~

If only he could bring his hikari back. If only he could tell him how he felt. If only he hadn't been so blind to his own feelings before. If only he'd realized this sooner, maybe this wouldn't have happened. These thoughts chased each other through Yami's mind until, exhausted, he fell asleep right where he was, in the doorway of his light's room. Only to have his thoughts follow him in the form of nightmares.

AN: What did you all think? I thought the song fit, but that's just me.

I need help right here. I need you to tell me if you want Anzu(Tea)-bashing. I've never done it before, but I can try. I didn't want to just do it because I wanted to know what all of you wanted. Just tell me in a review. THANKS!!!!
