Arachnid

Chapter 25

~~∞Ω∞Ω∞~~

“What about the spider on your neck.”

“Where?”

“Here.” She said pointing at her own so he knew. “Let me get it before it bites you.”

“Hey don’t kill spiders.”

“You like spider?”

“Yes I love spiders.”

“Get them out of this hospital.”

Marik pretended to run from Malik’s hands before he jumped onto the bed and crawled under. Malik jumped off and moved under and caught all three that were there. Malik stood up with them in his hands and looked at Ryou and smirked.

“Hey Ryou want to see?”

“Malik don’t.”

Malik took a step forward. “Here.”

“Malik stop!”

Malik shrugged and walked to the window and opened it and placed them on the wall. Whispering as they slowly climbed on.

“Go down to the front and come in as humans and ask for either myself or Ryou.”

Malik closed the window when they were out and turned to the nurse.

“There done no need for killing.”

“This is a hospital and we don’t need any dirty creatures here.”

“Actually humans are dirtier than spiders. They are pretty much 100% clean. (A/N: just made that up, don’t know if that’s true.)”

“Yeah well we don’t need them here. Breakfasts here so eat and then get some more rest. There’s a TV on the wall and after breakfast I’ll bring you the remote.”

Ryou and Malik nodded before she pulled the trolley over that had the food on it and setting the trays in front of them. Ryou and Malik looked at the food in horror before finally started eating once the nurse disappeared. After finishing she came back for the trays and handed Malik and Ryou a remote.

“There are 3 people down stairs at the moment that look like the three of you. They are asking to see you. Are they family?”

“No they aren’t related but friends.”

“Ok. I’ll send them up.”

Ryou and Malik nodded as she left and three minutes later Bakura, Marik and Yami came through the door. Malik smiled as Marik came over and sat down next to him on the bed.

“Hey, thanks for before.”

“That’s ok. It’s easier to have you three like this and talk without people coming in and thinking we’ve gone insane.”

Marik chuckled and nodded. “True.”

“Yami how’s your stomach?”

“It’s alright. I should be fine in a week or so. Same with Bakura, but for him in a few days.”

Ryou nodded and looked at Bakura who was leaning against the wall looking out the window. Ryou was slightly worried something was wrong.

“Bakura?”

 Bakura looked over to see Ryou watching him. Walking over he stood beside him looking down at him. Ryou smiled slight before he looked away sensing that Bakura was slightly annoyed.

“What is it?”

“Don’t worry.”

Bakura sighed and sat on the side of Ryou’s bed. “No, tell me.”

“You’re annoyed at something.” Ryou stated.

“Yeah I am.”

“What is it?”

“About trusting these people that came in yesterday.”

“You can trust them. They are like family. They would keep it a secret and not expose you three. Besides we aren’t telling them till we are all out of the hospital.”

Bakura looked at the window. “Alright.”

Ryou smiled before looking to the door when there was a knock at it. When the door opened Yugi’s grandfather, Seto and Jou entered. Ryou and Malik smiled and watched their reaction to the three people there.

“Who are they?” Jou asked looking at them suspiciously.

 “This is Bakura, Marik and Yami.” Malik said pointing at each said person. “We met them at the airport and swapped numbers seeing they were moving to domino. Yami, Bakura, Marik this is Yugi’s grandfather Solomon and our friends Seto and Jou.”

The six people shook hands before the doctor came in. He noticed three people he hadn’t seen before but put it aside for the moment.

“It seems Mr Motou is stable enough to have visitors and he is awake. Only three at a time to be on the safe side.”

“Gramps you Seto and Jou go first. We’ll go with Yami after. He’d like to see Yugi.” Malik said.

“You two sure?”

“Yeah go.” Ryou nodded in agreement with Malik.

“Alright we’ll come back here after to talk to you.”

Solomon, Seto and Jou followed the doctor from the room. Following the doctor to the other side of the building on the same floor they arrived at the room.

“Now try to not startle him and don’t let him move around too much.”

Solomon nodded and opened the door and walked in. Yugi looked very small on the long bed. There were small tubes stuck near his nose to help him breath. He was on a drip and had IV being put into him. He just looked exhausted.

“Yugi?” Solomon said and the three watched as Yugi’s eyes opened and a smile came to his face.

“Ji-chan!”

Solomon hurried over and hugged Yugi gently, careful of the drips and tubes. Yugi weakly hugged him back. Jou and Seto closed the door and pulled three chairs over and sat down. Solomon soon let go of Yugi and he sat down as well.

“Hi Jou, Seto. What are you doing here? You’re meant to be on holiday.”

“We came back when we heard that your plane disappeared. Seto had been working on trying to find you but it seems you were able to get ourselves back.”

Yugi smiled and looked a little upset that he caused them to cancel their holiday. Seto decided to stop it.

“Yugi don’t worry about our holiday ok? You’re our friend and would have come back either way if something else happened you ended up in hospital. We’d come back so don’t blame yourself for it.”

Yugi looked at him before nodding. Jou started asking questions that they didn’t already know the answer to before the doctor came to get them out so he could give the others more time with Yugi before Yugi could get some rest.
