********************Yami's P.O.V.***********************

They had all heard Anzu scream. Oscuro quickly warped outside. Everyone else ran out the door.

They discovered Oscuro and Fanta laughing at the sight in front of them. Everyone tried to keep from laughing, but failed. Jou doubled over with laughter, and Honda snickered behind his hand. Yami, was chuckling under his breath. Mokuba was outright laughing, almost in tears. Serenity joined him. Seto, in his traditional manner, just smirked.

In front of them were Ryou and Bakura sitting on the ground with Anzu underneath them. They had apparently landed on top of her causing her to scream her head off. Bakura never was good at Shadow Realm landings. One time he landed in a tree.....

" Get off of me, you bakas!" Anzu screamed.

Ryou and Bakura quickly stood up. Ryou was apologizing profusely. Bakura just laughed, must to everyone's surprise. It was actually a nice sound.

Bakura laughing. Now I have seen and heard everything.

" Don't just stand there. I think you two broke my back!" Anzu yelled.

" No, we didn't, Anzu. You are perfectly capable of standing up." Bakura responded.

" Well, you could at least help me up! Ow."

" Are you all right, Anzu?" Honda asked reaching for her outstretched hand.

" Yes, I am fine." She ignored the hand, and stood up on her own. "Now if you don't mind I think I am going to go back inside before something else falls on me or goes wrong. I am still not talking to you, Honda." She marched back in the house.

Oh this is turning into a wonderful day. Yami sighed, and followed his friends back into the house. Yugi...........

********************Yugi's P.O.V.************************

Damn! Shit! I dropped the damn thing again. This is not working. They're all three asleep again and I can't get loose. Whoever is chanting is keeping them asleep.

I can't reach my deck either. It is in my bottom pants pocket. Why did I have to wear these damn pants? Oh yeah. Because Yami likes them so much. If I could get a hold my cards, I would just call the Dark Magician to get me out of here. I can barely move my wrists. I wish I had Bakura's escape techniques.

/ Yami? /

// Yes, aibou. //

/ The safety pin thing is not working. I can't get out. /

// Are they asleep again? //

/ Yes, but…Damn the chanting or whatever just stopped again. They should be waking up in a few minutes. /

// You can't tell where you are? //

/ No. There is a door, but all I can see is swirling colors. I think they have physically changed the Shadow Realm. I don't recognize this at all. Just take a look, Yami. I know you can still see through my eyes if you wish. /

// Are you sure? Is it safe? //

/ Since they are asleep, I think it is safe. /

Yugi felt Yami's consciousness enter into his head. He was not "physically" there. Just mentally. It was a feeling that Yugi would never get used to no matter how often they did it. I have to guard my thoughts. Yami could easily read my mind while in this state. I don't want him to find out.

// Find out what? Sorry, but that thought was kind of loud. What are you hiding from me, aibou? //

/ Nothing. /

// You responded to that just a little quickly, aibou. If it was nothing, you would not hide it from me. //

/ Damn. /

// I have caught you in something, haven't I? You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. And I will respect you wish and not read your thoughts. I can't recognize where you are either. //

/ Thanks, yami. / How do I tell him I am in love.....

********************Yami's P.O.V.***********************

How do I tell him I am in love....... the thought closed off.

Yami jerked, startling everyone in the room. They knew that he was talking to Yugi. He had his characteristic glazed look.

/ Yami? You pulled out. Rather suddenly I might add. Did something happen where you are? / He doesn't realize that his thought had been projected to me.

// No, aibou. I am fine. I was just finished. That's all. //

/ If you say so. /

Who is he in love with? I barely caught that thought. I know that he did not mean for me to hear it.

Could this be what has been disturbing his sleep? His love for someone?

What is this feeling? I have never felt like this before. I feel like my heart is missing. Like it has been ripped from my body. Yugi loves someone, but won't tell me who he…or she… is.

Who ever it is, is a lucky person. If only it were me. I admit that I am jealous. But, this person better hark my words when I find out who they are. If this person does anything to harm my aibou, they will suffer for the rest of their days. On this, I swear.

I have already fulfilled this promise once, and that poor soul is withering in the Shadow Realm. The Reaper enjoys taunting him. He deserved that punishment and so much more....Yugi had only been 16.

Yugi met him in high school. He had appeared nice. He had liked him. I had not. I wanted Yugi for myself. His name was Jacob. Everyone told him that they looked good together. I was jealous of the guy taking Yugi's time away from me. I sense that there was something wrong with him. I warned him in a dream never to hurt Yugi or face a harsh penalty.

One day, all hell broke loose.

<<flashback>>

/ Yami! /

// What is it, aibou? //

/ I can't get him off of me.... /

// What!? //

/ He...he..Jacob....no! Stop! Yami! /

Yami was looking through Yugi's eyes trying to find out what was wrong. He was ready to take over his body if need be. He saw the fist come towards Yugi's face. He felt his light's pain as it connected with his jaw.

There will be hell to pay!

The Millennium puzzle around Yugi's neck began to glow. Jacob did not notice because he was trying to unbuckle the belt around his waist

In a flash he took over Yugi's body. His short frame adjusted to that of Yami's larger one. His hair style changed along with the color of his eyes. They were now a crimson color.

He looked down to see that his frame was not wearing any clothes. His jaw hurt from where Yugi had been struck. Jacob was now trying to tie his hands to the bedposts. He is trying to rape Yugi!

He quickly focused on Yugi's soul room to check on him. The walls were stained red like blood. Yugi was curled in a corner crying softly with his knees to his chin, rocking back and forth. Oscuro was trying to console him.

The sennen eye was glowing brightly on his forehead. //Sleep, aibou. You do not need to see what I am going to do to him. Sleep. // Yugi dropped off at Yami's command.

Oscuro looked up and nodded when he saw Yami's face. He silently understood and warped out of Yugi's soul room.

Yami looked up just in time to dodge and roll off the bed as another punch came toward his face. Only one of his wrists was tied, and he quickly broke out of it.

" When did you get so fast, pip squeak?"

" What is the meaning of this, Jacob?" Yami demanded.

" You have fame, Yugi. You defeated the great Pegasus at his own game. You defeated Seto Kaiba. Anyone that is with you becomes famous."

" You were using Yugi?"

" Do you really think that I would care for you? You must be kidding."

I was right!

He aimed for Yugi's jaw again.

Suddenly, he noticed that Yugi was a little taller than before. The use of third person in the earlier question also sank in to his brain. " Wha...what happened to you? You got taller. And your eyes? They're red! What's going on?"

" My friends know me as Yami. You might say that I am Yugi's darker half. I took over Yugi's body."

"What!? How is that possible?" Yami ignored the question.

"Let me guess your plan. You were going to rape Yugi, then humiliate and blackmail him into never leaving your side. You would have become famous because of Yugi. And myself, but you did not know about me. It was together that we defeated Pegasus."

The sennen eye began to glow on his forehead.

" What are you?" Jacob was backing up slowly towards the door with fear in his eyes. He tripped and fell over the pants around his ankles.

" Someone you should not have messed with. I warned you in a dream not to harm Yugi. You did not listen."

" That...that...that was you? I thought you were just a dream. An apparition created in my mind. A drug induced craze."

He leaned over Jacob. " Drugs are not good for the body, Jacob. And, neither is what I have planned for you. We are going to play a little game, Jacob. And you are going to lose." He snapped his fingers.

Jacob spun around in fear. He did not know where he was. He saw two creatures standing in front of him. He recognized them from Yugi's deck as the Dark Magician and the Celtic Guardian.

" What's going on here?"

" As I said before, we are going to play a little game."

" Are you crazy?"

" Maybe a little." Yami smirked.

" What is this stupid game?"

" Simple. You have to guess which hat the Celtic Guardian is under." As he said this, Oscuro lifted his staff. Four large hats appeared in front of Jacob. " If you guess the correct hat, you get to go free. If not, your soul is forfeit, and will be left to wander aimlessly throughout the Shadow Realm."

" What!? That is like a one in four chance!"

" That is why you have to chose carefully for you only get one chance. Just how lucky are you, Jacob?"

" This is crazy. I will not do this. I'm dreaming or something. I must have gotten a bad bag of dope. It is affecting my brain."

" This is no dream or hallucination. If you refuse then your soul is forfeit anyway."

" Chose wisely, human." Oscuro said in his sultry voice. He was mad at this human's treatment of his little master.

Jacob fell under his spell. His voice alone is a weapon. Jacob could not refuse. He really did not take the game seriously. He still thought he was dreaming.

I have a one in four chance. " This is ridiculous. Oh, all right. I choose....the second hat from my left."

" Are you sure?"

" Yes, now let's get this over with. I need to wake up so I can work on Yugi."

" Wrong choice, Jacob."

" What?!"

Oscuro again raised his staff, causing the hats to disappear. The Celtic Guardian appeared where the third hat had been.

" You were planning on hurting Yugi. I will never let anyone touch him in the wrong manner. You have had your chance. Now you will be punished."

" No..wait!" He tried to run, but the Celtic Guardian jumped in front of him and pulled his sword. He felt an intense pain as the sword entered his upper arm. He screamed.

He turned. A blast of dark energy met his body. He again cried out in pain. He knew then that he was not dreaming.

He turned again thinking that it would be easier to get past the one called Yami.

He was wrong.

" Mind crush!"

______________________________________________________

Yugi and I had not yet learned how to sustain my body.

Luckily, I had taken over in time to prevent anything more from happening to Yugi physically. But, mentally the damage had already been done. He had been devastated…

It took me two weeks to bring back Yugi. I had to control his body during that time. He would not leave his soul room. He would wake up screaming and crying. In order to calm him down, I had to hold him. He would cry in my arms until he fell back to sleep.

I had not used my powers in a long while. All of our friends guessed instantly what had happened after Jacob's body appeared with a look of terror on his frozen face.

Jou, Anzu, Oscuro, and all the others helped Yugi return to normal, but his light had been tainted.

It remained that way for so long......

Now, something again threatens my aibou. My light. They shall pay. On my father's name, I swear it.
