**************************

Marik and Ryou ran through the forest trying to catch up with Yugi. They couldn't spot the boy anywhere. It's like he disappeared. They didn't understand why didn't Yugi run crying. Why did he say they couldn't be friends. What happened?
ou fou finally realized that they wouldn't be able to find Yugi. He was just to fast and got a great head start. He stopped rasping trying to catch his breath leaning into a tree for support. He couldn't believe this was happening. Why would Yugi be acting like this? Is this a joke that he is pulling off really well? What happened to him? Pictures of Yugi's happy smile and face flooded Ryou's mind making him want to cry. Yugi looked so hurt and sad as he looked down on them crying speaking in such a hoarse way you think he'd been running miles. Ryou felt pained as the scene kept replaying in his mind. He didn't enjoy that at all. Now that he thought about Yugi has been acting strange ever since they came to Japan. He wondered what happened to make Yugi change so much. Suddenly a loud thud brought Ryou back to reality and notice how Malik punched a tree with his fist hard as Malik cried. Malik fell to his knee and clutched his hand. Ryou ran to him shocked that he'd do something so stupid.

"Malik what are you doing?" Ryou asked shocked trying to grab Malik's hand to examine it. All Malik did was slap Ryou's hand away not wanting to be treated like a child. "Malik please don't do this. Let me see," Ryou responded gently picking up Malik's hand and making sure he didn't break any bones. To his relief it was only a bruise. "Malik please be careful. I," Ryou was interrupted as Malik's tears flowed down his face painfully. Ryou was shocked by this. Why was Malik crying? Ryou did the only thing that came to mind. He embraced his friend trying to comfort him.

"What happened? Why did Yug run like that. Runaway from us?" Malik sobbed onto Ryou's chest recalling the feeling of two hands strangling his throat as Yugi just stood there in tears like he knew who was doing this. Malik wanted to know what was happening to his friend. He just wanted his best friend back. Yugi was the only person who has ever understood his loneliness in the world. "I want us to go back home, Ryou. You, me, and Yugi. I just want us all home and go back to normal."

"Me too, Malik. Me too," Ryou answered sadly looking around realizing that he didn't know where they were. He looked around and saw only darkness through the trees. It was black. Pure darkness. Ryou didn't know what to do know. There they were in a strange forest, alone, and Malik was sobbing uncontrollably.

Like Ryou's prayers were answered he saw a flashlight light and called for help. Then two tall forms walked through the trees and looked down at Ryou and Malik who wiped his tears off.

The two forms looked very similar to Ryou and Malik. Only the strangers had much spikier hair and it was all around. Ryou felt uneasy, scared from these to guys. The only thing that was keeping him from running off and finding someone else to help them was his curiosity of why these two look like them.

"Excuse me but can you please help us. We ran out here looking for a friend but we got lost and don't know out way out," Ryou explained the situation hoping they'd understand. The two men just stood there stly tly emotionless not moving an inch. It was kind of scaring Ryou but he continued. The two men nodded enjoying their look in finding two new beautiful slaves to use. They'll enjoy it.

"Yes of course. The forest is dangerous at night though so you should stay the night with us in our cabin until daylight," The man identical to Ryou answered politely, kindly not letting any of excitement escape him. Ryou nodded and followed the men along side Malik. They found the men were named Bakura Kunoharu and Marik Taraune. And found out the Marik and Bakura lived here their whole lives and enjoy company because they don’t get much of it.

They finally made it into a small cabin made of wood. Marik opened the door generously inviting them in holding the door. Bakura walked in after the two boys grinning at Marik devilishly.

Ryou and Malik looked around the cabin seeing it very homey and it looked comfortable. Then they heard the door slam and quickly turned around to see what had happened. They saw Bakura and Marik staring at them with menace and lust in there eyes, a grin on there face, and it was all pointed to Ryou and Malik.

“Welcome to your hell.”

Yugi stood there shock drawn on his face. There in the room stood an old man who looked seemingly pleasant. He had shoulder length hair that was mixed with the colors gray and white. His eyes were big and the color gray. There were very few wrinkles on his face and all he did was smile pleasantly at Yugi.

The thing that shocked Yugi though is that he recognized the old man. He remembered something now. When he was 10 the month his family died he remembered his Uncle giving him a bunch of picture albums.

He remembered going through them crying at the pleasant happy memories of him with his family. He found a picture of his mother and him playing out on the beach barefoot and his dad just watched them sharply. He was young around 6 years old and so happy. His mother was gorgeous that day. It was all perfect. The moon was full making the tides rise higher than normal. It made his mother glow. Her blonde hair flowed as her blue violet eyes sparkled with life. Her gorgeous tight sweater hugging at her flat chest and he faded blue jeans slightly baggy for running. She played with him and even went so far as to tickling him in the sand and getting him all dirty.

"Daddy help me!" The young Yugi yelled tears falling from his eyes at the torture. His father smiled his face softening at the sight of his family safe and happy. He glided over to his wife and child and started to tickle his wife's back. She shrieked in surprise and laughter.

"Traitor!" She exclaimed as her husband and son both tickled her to the ground. Yugi laughed as his father picked him up off the ground holding him in the air. And his mother just watching as she sat on the ground. The was a very happy day.

Eventually he came to a picture of his and this old man. The same old man in this very room. He asked his Uncle about it but all his Uncle said was that the old man was related to his father cause of the similarities. Could this man really be related to him?

Joey just turned his head and nodded for Seto to close the door. He got up along side the old man and they both walked up to Yugi. Yugi felt kind of intimidated so backed up into Yami. The old man just stopped his eyes going slightly wide than he just laughed. A sweet happy genuine laugh. Yugi thought he'd never hear something so wonderful again.

"I'm sorry. Did I frighten you? I apologize," The old man said his voice flowing hypnotic much more stronger than Yugi could've thought possible. He suddenly felt an strange fear. He remembered how these people could use those voices of theirs to command him to do whatever they wanted. "Don't worry, lad. I wouldn't do such a thing to my own grandson."

Yugi was confused by this new turn of events. Grandson? Now that the old guy mentioned it. He never did know who his father's father was. Could this man be telling him the truth. Wait. How did he know what he was thinking? He thought Yami was the only one who could do that.

"So I was right? Yugi is Yuki's son?" Joey questioned the old man who nodded calmly. Joey couldn’t believe it. How could Yugi be Yuki’s son? How could someone of his people be born without him knowing? How could Yuki have found his Hikari without telling him?

“Who’s Yuki?” Yugi asked.

“Yuki was my son,” The old man started calmly. He could tell right away they Yugi was his son’s child. The similarities were uncanny. The boy seems so young though. His height must be because of his lack of blood nutrition. It stunt his growing process. But the old man could see his son in the boy’s eyes. In those eyes stood everything his dear son was. He finished, “Your father.”

“My? Wait a second. What?” Yugi couldn’t finish one sentence. He was confused now beyond belief. Where was all this coming from? He knew his father was Japanese but...no how was he suppose to believe this nonsense. He wasn’t. He raised his voice asking, “Who are you?”

“My name is Sugoroku Mutuo. I am your grandfather,” Sugoroku answered simply like it was supposed to be commonly known to Yugi. This was giving Yugi a major headache. Why can’t anyone tell him what’s going on? There is no way this man was his grandfather. This is so stupid!

“And I’m supposed to believe this?” Yugi questioned praying that this was some sort of sick joke on him. He'd also be mad though for them to talk of his dead father in such a way. Joey nodded though answering the question silently not wanting to disturb Yugi state of mind. "Well I'm not believing it," Yugi replied turning stubborn only having pictures of seeing his real grandparents being killed by that huge monster. Tears swelled up in his eyes from the memory and he fought to hold them back. He felt two strong arms circle his waist crushing him into a hard chest protecting him from the horrid scene in his mind. He could feel a wash of love and warmth to comfort him and he was grateful for it.

"I see that you have found your Aibou already," Sugoroku said as he pleasantly smiled at Yami not feeling at all disgusted. He was happy for his grandson. And he was sure his father would've been proud too. Yugi grew up never knowing anything about himself and still managed without any help. That was something to be amazingly proud of.

Joey lead them to the couches again thinking it would be more comfortable for everyone. They were all grateful and almost everyone sat in the same spot except Sugoroku sat in the long couch by himself seeing that Mako and Tristan left to do other things. Yugi felt a little uneasy though with all these people talking about him. He really didn't like being talked about. He enjoyed his privacy and solitary. He has always been alone almost his whole life but it all seemed to change over night.

Joey sat comfortably with Seto on his lap and in the sweet silence he enjoyed. Though he could hear Yugi's nervous heartbeats thudding against his chest. He could hear his wonderful guard outside protecting them from harm warning them of any unwanted intruders. He could hear the wind brush the trees and the fish swim through the water completely serene. He enjoyed the peaceful things nature seemed to do.

Through all this though Joey felt confused for once in his entire life. He didn't understand how Yugi came to this world and he couldn't put logic to this. Yuki, his long time friend only 5 centuries younger than himself also an Ancient and slayer, had found his Hikari? Why didn't Yuki tell him? It didn't make sense. Who was this Sora Vitaku person?

“You have questions, my prince.” Sugoroku stated simply looking at Joey with a smile. Joey sighed with a small snicker. Sugoroku was a deadly old Ancient and was the wisest of their people. It wasn’t a shock to know that Yugi was such a well known student. His blood is powerful no matter what you think about. He has Yami’s blood flowing in him making him part of their family and also his father’s blood who was a powerful good man. Now it’s Yugi’s other bloodline that confused Joey. Who was this Sora? Joey kept asking the question in his mind wanting answers. He nodded in response.

“Sugoroku you should know everything about your son, Yuki,” Joey started getting to the point immediately wanting the precious information. He waited for a response which was a stern nod. “Then who is this Sora Vitaku? Hikari to Yuki Mutuo?”

"Oh. You are talking about Sora my that was the kindest understanding human I have ever met in my life," Sugoroku answered happily with the dear memory. He remembered very clearly who Sora was. And how his son loved that human with a passion. The memories were cherished to him for he had never seen his son so happy as when he was with Sora.

Joey nodded in understanding. Hikari were light hearted. Always full of compassion and purity. He does not understand how Hik Hikari turned out the way he did but Joey isn't complaining. He knows hoe precious Hikaris are to their race but he also needs to know who exactly is this Sora Vitaku. "I understand, Sugoroku, but I need to know who she is," Joey explained. Sugoroku was confused by this though as the shock was drawn to his face but he just made a small laugh and shook his he

"Pardon my prince but Sora Vitaku is," Suddenly the doors slammed open as five figures walked in. Joey sighed in frustration. God must not want him to obtain the information but he was determined. It seemed that two of those figures were Mako and Tristan bringing along three others.

One with Mako was a actually a female. She had nice smooth tan skin with straight flowing black hair down to her waist. Her blue eyes sparkled with laughter and joy (Really this sounds nothing like her but oh well). She wore an outdoors dress covered with the pictures of roses and lilies. She wore no shoes but you couldn't even see a hint of dirt at all as if she wasn't even walking on the ground.

The second figure with Mako was a young man almost similar to him. The boy was tall and masculine (Here he looks about...hmm...18) but he was also much more different from Mako. His eyes were a dull slate but held some small humor in them. He had a small smile barely a curve of the mouth and his hair was less spikier than Mako's though it flowed below his waist. His arms were crossed stubbornly across his chest as he stood next to the female. He wore tight faded jeans and a black tank top actually looking normal but through the smile you could see the white teeth gleaming showing off his fangs.

The last person who was with Tristan and was also a male. The man also had long stunning black hair. His was slightly spiky but he seemed to keep it in a ponytail. He had shining emerald eyes and a wide smile. The thing that caught Yugi's eyes though was that the man was rather large, no, extremely large in the gut area. Almost like he were pregnant but that is impossible. Males can't get pregnant. The man wore soft green silk pants and a extra large red t-shirt. He smiled kindly and made no effort to be shocked how the doors were open.

To the new arrivals Seto jumped off Joey with a smile and ran to the black haired man and helped him to the couch. Tristan growled as Seto touched the man but held back knowing that Seto was trying to be helpful and that he's Joey's Hikari. The new female followed and also helped.

"Duke it's great to see you again. How's the baby?" Seto asked as he helped the man sit down. Yugi couldn't believe his ears. This man really was pregnant. Now he knew this must be la-la land because there was no way a guy can have a kid.

This Duke person must be a barer. I'm positive that Seto informed you of the meaning, Yugi heard Yami's voice mention in his mind. He remembered Seto saying something about barers able to bare children but he didn't think it was true. He had no choice to believe it though because this man truly pregnant.

I'm not going to turn like that am I?

Only when we decide to have children, Yami stated easily like it was going to happen. Yugi than remembered what happened to him last night and wish he never asked. How could Yami do that to him? He said something that would surely hurt.

Yami I can't, Yugi admitted sorrowfully. He did want to have children, he loved kids but he wasn't sure anymore. Could he really do something like that with Yami again? He was terrified of the thought.

"My baby is fine. It's been kicking me like crazy though. I think it wants to get out soon," Duke giggled happily at the thought of finally getting his child out of him. Tristan couldn't wait for his child to come he would be happy if it was a girl or at least another barer but for now he could just pray.

"Well then we all know this one is going to be a stubborn fighter," Seto replied with a laugh of his own. Duke and the black haired woman laughed at the thought. Sugoroku sat there politely smiling happily telling Duke that they prey for the child's health.

"We don't need another stubborn Yokuroian around here. I can barely handle Seto and Duke's child is already a bad mix seeing that Tris is the father," Joey said smirking as Tristan became very angry at this and Duke just laughed from the thought.

"I can't wait till I get a child," The black haired woman declared touching Duke's stomach. She couldn't wait to find her Aibou and bare children. She was one of the last females of her kind. Her best friend, Mai Mikano, was murdered and she sobbed for days refusing to leave her chambers. She was only 1 1/2 centuries older than Mai and she never expected to lose such a close friend. Her brothers tried their best to comfort her but nothing worked.

"Isis, I'm sure your kids will be beautiful," Her second brother answered. He was always the charming kind and sometimes you couldn't believe he was a slayer of their people instead of a barer. Normally males of their kind lose all emotions after 18 years of life but her brother seemed to keep as much of it as he could and it made him the most pleasant male of there people. And he being the little brother of Mako gave him a good title too. She on the other hand had the title of Mako's little sister and an independent person.

She never liked listening to what her brothers commanded her to do. Actually the more they commanded her to do something the more she rebelled. She knew they only did it cause they worry for her safety but there should be a certain limit to worrying. She still loved her brothers though and she wasn't scared. She had powers of her own. She was powerful maybe not as much as her brothers or other males but still one with great power and knowledge.

"Thank you, Moki," Isis replied smiling at her brother as he sighed from the nickname she has called him since childhood. He really didn't enjoy the name cause it scarred his pride but she was his little sister so he found himself always giving her permission to call him that.

"Is this the new barer that's supposed to be Yami's Hikari?" Mokuba asked looking Yugi up and down seeing Yami hold Yugi tighter in protection. Mokuba chuckled. Yami really didn't remember anything and you could tell that he wasn't completely their by the way he treats his brother, their prince. Yugi tried to make Yami's grip less tightening around his waist. Once he finally got comfortable he stared at the three new comers again.

"My name is Yugi Mutuo. Yours?" He questioned looking at the three. He really liked knowing peoples name before they started talking about him.

"Of course. My name Duke Taharu, Hikari of Tristan Taharu," Duke stated with a smile as Tristan squeezed himself to sit next to Duke putting an arm around his Hikari's shoulder. His baby was due any day and he wanted his Hikari to rest in the earth until then so he doesn't waste to much of his strength. Tristan knew that it took a lot of energy for Duke to carry their child and still go around walking.

"My name is Ishizu Sunami but everyone calls me Isis," Isis replied as she sat next to her brothers. She really couldn’t wait to get to know Yugi. She wanted to recognize every Yokuroian just like her brothers and Yugi seemed like a fun guy. She heard from her brother, Mako, that Yugi was Yuki’s son. She remembered Yuki from when she was still only 7 years old. Which was quite a while ago. Almost 3 centuries. Maybe more.

“And I’m, Mokuba Sunami, the in between sibling,” Mokuba finished trying to add a little humor. He seemed to be the only nice guy Yugi’s met in this whole damn race aside from Seto and now Duke too. Well he guessed not all the guys are bad here.

"No, No. His name is Moki," Isis insisted as she wrapped her slender arms around her big brother’s shoulders. Mokuba glared at her and all she did was laugh at his reaction. She loved teasing her brothers because for now she is the only good thing they have in life. And she felt so special because of it.

“Anyone else calls me, Moki and they’re dead. I only let Isallsalls me it cause she’s my sister. No one else. Not even you, Mako,” Mokuba declared glaring at everyone in the room giving fair warning. All the Hikaris laughed at how he was acting about a silly little nickname.

“Trust me, Mokuba. I would not find any humor in calling you that,” Mako replied staring at his sister clinging to their brother. Isis really did like to tease them which Mokuba sometimes enjoyed when the torment was being brought upon Mako. He didn’t like that his sister was so trusting though. She could easily be taken from them by a turned and they wouldn’t even know it.

“Excuse me, Mako but Sugoroku was just about to tell us who Yugi’s mother is,” Joey stated knowing everyone would get that that was a polite way of saying shut up. Everyone calmed themselves and waited for Sugoroku to speak. The old man sighed seeing his prince impatient as ever.

“Sora Vitaku for one thing is,” Sugoroku was than interrupted from a harsh scream from next to him. He quickly turned and saw Duke clutching his big belly in tears, screaming harshly of pain. Tristan was immediately at his Hikari’s side begging for his Hikari to tell him what’s wrong.

“Tristan,” Duke tried to say as his breathing became hoarse and rigid. He gripped tightly onto Tristan’s upper arm digging his nails in the skin releasing Tristan’s blood. “Our baby,” Duke tried to continue through screaming; everyone was around him at once thinking something bad was happening to the child. Suddenly a pained, weak smile appeared on Duke’s face, “Our baby is coming. Now.”

Everyone than grew extremely worried and serious. Sugoroku than took charge quickly. He ordered Mako, Joey, and Tristan to gently move Duke to a guest room and lay him there and to remove his pants. He ordered Seto to go get fresh clean water from the pond and told Isis to call his wife for assistance. He told Mokuba to get certain tools they’ll need for a newborn. Scissors, animal blood, and clothing. Yugi and Yami sat there not sure what to do but than Sugoroku turned to them and with a harsh face, angry that they were just sitting still, yelled for them to get towels. A lot of towels.

Everyone did their job as quick as they could. Seto grabbed a water bucket and filled it with the pond water. Isis called Mrs. Mutuo telling the woman of the sudden emergency and the woman said she’d be there immediately. Yugi and Yami rushed to find as many towels they could find and carry. Mako, Joey, and Tristan carried Duke with the greatest care to a spare bedroom. Tristan took off his husband’s pants noticing the moist feeling it gave off.

Mrs. Mutuo got to the mansion in no time. Yugi just stood there staring though. This was his grandmother? She had a worried look plastered on her face and was breathing rather deep like she ran to much for a woman of her age. She had gorgeous dark gray hair flowing down her back in waves. She wore an old dress full of a beautiful green color almost like the color of grass. The minute she walked in she put her hair in a ponytail. Her deep red eyes ready to do all she can. She went into the room asking for everyone to leave except the husband and Seto.

Mrs. Mutuo went straight to work not letting time get wasted. She asked Tristan to damp a washcloth and keep Duke under control. She asked Seto to get nice hot towels ready for the baby and asked Duke to spread his legs to give room for the baby.

The contractions were killing Duke. He could feel his baby pushing and pulling at his very insides just to get out. And the pain kept doubling every passing second. He found tears continuously falling from his eyes as he screamed in pain. He cling to Tristan not willing to let his Aibou go.

Tristan felt utterly helpless to do anything. His Hikari was in terrible pain and all he could do was take some of it away but that still wasn’t enough. He tried to calm Duke telling him how proud he was for being there and carrying their child.

“Duke, I want you to push.” Mrs. Mutuo commanded as she saw that it was time. Duke tried desperately to push the little life out of him. His first push Mrs. Mutuo saw the head coming out and only five more pushes and the baby was completely. She gave Tristan the pair of scissors to cut the food cord off his baby. She then wrapped the baby in a towel after it’s first cry. She wiped off the blood it coughed out of it’s throat. She went to the bucket of pure water and washed the baby.

Duke felt exhausted but no matter what he wanted to hold his baby. He was determined. He felt Tristan push the strands of hair covering his face and kiss him on the forehead as he said that their baby is beautiful. Duke wanted to see for himself. Seto left the room out of respect after he realized he wasn’t needed.

Mrs. Mutuo dressed up the baby and finally gave the little bundle of joy to it’s mother. She dressed the baby in a cute light blue pajama with a light blue hat. She even wrapped a light blue around it trying to keep it warm.

“You’re now the proud parents of a beautiful baby boy,” Mrs. Mutuo said and handed the baby to Duke. She left, to let the family be alone for awhile as she gave the information to her prince and husband.

Duke just stared at his child on the verge of tears. His baby was beautiful. He had dark brown hair and he smiled while his bright green eyes shined. He rocked his baby and kissed the little one on the forehead. Tristan looked along side at his child proudly.

“What shall we name him, Duke?” Tristan question wanting the decision to belong to his Hikari. Duke thought staring at his son. At the smiling face and the small ones attempts to bite his fingers. He giggled until he finally made a decision.

“Can we name him, Tori?” Duke asked Tristan wanting permission first. Tristan smiled and thought about it too. He actually enjoyed the name and it seemed to fit their son. He nodded in agreement. Duke smiled brightly looking down at his son, “Tori Taharu. I like it.”

Then their door was just attacked by a bunch of knocking hands wishing to come inside. Everyone wanted to see the baby and know how Duke was doing. They were all anxious. Duke and Tristan laughed at this and Tristan granted them access to the room.

The door was quietly but quickly opened to allow the others entrance and they rushed to the bed to see the new life of their people. They all stared at the young male baby. And it smiled and giggled at the attention. The baby looked at everyone but it's gaze immediately stopped when he saw Mokuba. Mokuba eyes bore into the small green ones and at once the baby tried to squirm out of it’s mother’s arms trying to get to Mokuba.

“Aww. Moki it looks like the baby likes you,” Isis smiled at the little one trying to get to her big brother. The poor little thing was getting frustrated and on the verge of tears started to complain. Duke gently passed his baby over to Mokuba and suddenly the baby stopped crying. He cuddled into Mokuba’s chest finding great comfort and warmth. Mokuba didn’t really know what to do with the young one so just held the little one in his arms.

“What are you calling the baby?” Seto wondered out loud looking at the child in Mokuba’s arms. He thought the baby was absolutely adorable. No one would ever know this but he had the biggest weak spot for babies and children. He felt arms encircle his waist and a chin resting on his shoulder that kept him still. He looked at Joey’s face which had a devilish smirk.

I know, Hikari.

And you better not tell anyone, you jerk.

I wonder what I’ll get out of it? Joey mentioned deliberately sending Seto erotic pictures of the beautiful things he was thinking about. In reality Joey looked calm and normal as Seto was blushing like crazy, breathing slightly heavier than normal.

“Joey do this when you’re alone,” Mako whispered knowing very well what his friend was doing to Seto. Seto sighed in relief when Joey pulled back. he didn’t want Joey to make him hard in front of the baby who seemed to be cuddling deeper into the strong chest. Duke giggled at how cute his baby was acting on his first day of life.

“Our baby’s name is Tori, Tori Taharu,” Duke answered happily. Tori started to crying loudly so the whole room could hear. Mrs. Mutuo came up to Mokuba with a bottle of red fluids in it. Animal’s blood. She tried to pry Tori out of Mokuba’s arms but the little baby with his small hands held a tight grip to Mokuba. She sighed and gave to bottle to Mokuba asking for him to feed the baby. He went to sit on a chair and did so.

“Is he a barer?” Yugi asked curious on the matter. He didn’t really understand all this barer stuff but he guessed it must be true seeing that Duke did just give birth to a baby.

“We won’t be able to tell until his second year of life,” Tristan explained smiling at his son. He had a sense of pride wash over him. He had a family now. One he must protect with everything he was.

"Why not just say 'Not until he turns two?'" Yugi questioned not used to these people old way of talking. It's the 21st century people not the stone age. He received a couple of glances from the Yokuroians except Seto who understood completely.

"We have become accustomed to it since we've lived in the Feudal Era," Joey stated to the now shocked Yugi. He was older than the Feudal Era itself but he shouldn't mention that to Yugi for the poor boy might faint. Still though Yugi's eyes widened in shock. He couldn't believe that these people were that old! Was Yami that old?

"Yes the Feudal Era was wonderful! I remember when I was a at this village there was," Duke tried to make a conversation but was scowled by Mrs. Mutuo. She hurried and gently picked up Tori from Mokuba's arms. She walked to Duke and placed the baby next to him.

"That's enough talking, young man. Now it's time for you and the baby to rest."

"But,"

"No buts." Mrs. Mutuo firmly said. She was frightening when she was strict Duke found himself listening immediately not wanting to anger to woman. She turned around and glared at everyone in the room, even her prince Joey. "The mother and child has had a tiring day and need rest. They must be left undisturbed meaning. Out." She commanded all of them. They all rushed out, not running but enough to get out quickly. She closed the door behind her and allowed Duke and Tori to have much needed rest. Sugoroku started a small chuckle.

"That's my wife," He stated at how forceful she was being. Mrs. Mutuo smiled once everyone was out and once again turned into a calm looking woman. They all walked to the library as Mrs. Mutuo requested as she walked ahead cheerfully. Sugoroku did nothing else but follow his short-tempered wife. He laughed at the thought that this was one of his wife's good days.

Once in the library everyone sat down but Tristan was feeling uneasy leaving his Hikari and newborn child alone. He left to protect them both if any danger came their way. Mrs. Mutuo permitted it as long as Tristan didn't enter and disturb them. Tristan agreed and left instantly.

Mrs. Mutuo sat next to her husband smiling happily now. Joey demanded for the status of the baby immediately and got slapped by Seto who said not to be rude like that. Mrs. Mutuo laughed at how her prince started grumbling that he had every right. She enjoyed the displayed that those two always did. It seemed that Seto never agreed with Joey's method of treating people.

Yugi just stood in the back of group with Yami afraid to face his supposed to be grandmother. She looked similar to him. A lot more similar than Sugoroku did. Her bangs were the exact same bolt his was. He couldn't believe it.

Yugi heard Sugoroku talking to his grandmother. He heard Sugoroku calling the woman Mika. That must be his grandmother’s name. Mika Mutuo. It wasn’t a bad name he really enjoyed it. She seemed happy and content from where he was sitting.

Yugi wasn’t prepared for the next thing that was about to happen. Out of just plain enjoyment Yami’s hand lowered from Yugi’s waist and descended to Yugi’s ass and there a firmly squeezed shocking Yugi. Yugi was so stunned by Yami that he jumped and made a loud yelp. Everyone turned around to look at him and see why he made that sound. Yugi blushed, he looked like his face was going to turn into a tomato.

Mika didn’t know who this boy was and couldn’t get a good look of him. She asked for him to come up so they can properly meet. Not wanting to be rude Yugi walked up to the woman a little nervous. Once Mika got a good look of Yugi her face had a stunned look drawn to it. It frightened Yugi. She looked as if she just saw death himself. The next thing that she said shocked everyone in the room.

“Y-Yuki,” Mika whispered as she ran to Yugbracbracing him closely as her eyes burned with tears. “My baby Yuki,” She sobbed on Yugi’s shoulders. He was shocked and confused at why she was calling him Yuki. “I thought you were dead. Oh my son,” Mika’s embrace was so tight that Yugi thought she was never going to let him go. She was crying hard and would stop calling him Yuki. He didn’t know what to do but felt sorry for the woman and so returned her embrace slowly.

Mika felt her mixed emotions consuming her entire being. She was so happy. She thought her son had returned to her. She felt depressed remembering that sadness she felt when she was told her only son was killed. She didn’t want to let go hoping this wasn’t a dream praying this was really her Yuki. The little boy she birthed, nursed, and mothered for years.

Sugoroku quickly went to his wife’s side and pried her off their grandson. He couldn’t stand the thought of how she would act when she found out. She was yelling at him to let her go so she could hug her son. He didn’t let her go though and finally he whispered in her ear, “Mika this isn’t our son. This is Yuki’s son, Yugi. The child of Sora and our son.”

Mika stopped her struggling in hearing this and stared at Yugi with sad eyes. She then finally cleared her vision to actually see Yugi and not her son. That's when she broke down to the ground from the sudden reality. It had to hit her again. Her son was dead. Never to return to her again.

She stopped crying when she felt small arms embrace her. She opened her eyes to see dark hair. She knew it was Yugi. So much like her son. She hugged him back feeling a bit better. She might not have her son but she'll keep her grandson and take care of him for Yuki. She gave herself a new mission and she won't fail this one.

Yugi gently pushed Mika out of his embrace to look at her. Her eyes were still red from crying but she looked happier. He smiled warmly at her, happy to help. They finally parted and Sugoroku hugged her too sorry for not telling her sooner. Everyone else stayed quiet not wanting to disturb this family matter. Yami walked forward and picked Yugi from the ground hold his Hikari around the waist.

Sugoroku once finished fully comforting his wife. Came up and introduced them all to her. Only Joey and Isis knew his wife back then. Isis knew her because that needed an older woman of wisdom to help her growing up seeing that her mother and father were kill when she was only 2 years old. Her brothers raised her since then but she still grew up happy. Joey knew her just because he knew everyone in their race.

"I'm so sorry Yugi," Mika said once she sat down on the couch still hugging her husband. "It's that you look so much like your father," She stated looking at him smiling. Yugi felt a sense of pride wash over him. When he was younger his Uncle said he was nothing like his father but he was glad to know he at least slightly looked like his dad.

"It's okay," Yugi replied smiling kindly. He could see everyone's need to talk. Being quiet wasn't really like them and they wanted to talk. He thought it was funny but he also felt strange. Everything was happening to him so quickly he found his grandmother and grandfather in one day. A mad man who said he was his husband yesterday and a whole family right now. And he didn't mind. He then remembered having to give up his old friends too. Malik and Ryou the first people who didn't want to be his friend to use him but to just be his friend. He remembered the first time he met them.

He was 16 years old and still in High School. He was so small and everyone still thought he belonged in Middle School even though he got the top grades in the school. He was always quiet and didn't say anything when other people started to bully him.

He had heard to transfer students came in last week. One from Egypt and another from the United Kingdoms (I've read fics where they say Ryou is from Britain or England so I'm like what the heck I'll try it too). He didn't know anything else about them. Not even their names. He heard some people whisper about them. Some like a Mark is hot and a Ron is cute? He couldn't hear them right.

It was a normal school say for him though but those two were going to change his life completely. He was walking through the halls trying to get to the next class. Then these three guys came up to him and started harassing him for being so small. Finally one punched him in the stomach and he fell to his knees.

The guys laughed and scowled at him for being so weak. They started kicking at his fragile body mercilessly. He kept getting hurt until he heard a voice talk in a foreign language that called out to those guys. Yugi lifted his head towards the voice to see a tan skinned boy smiling looking completely clueless. His violet eyes seemed playful and mischievous and his long blonde spiky hair made him look even more happy. Yugi was scared this was another guy to beat him up. He could take it, sure no problem. It’s that he hated the pain of it all.

“What do ya want?” One of the guys asked feeling threatened by this weirdo just interrupting him and his friend’s fun.

“You should go before you get hurt.”

“Or do you want to join in?”

They all asked him but all he did was stand there staring at them all. He looked confused but Yugi still knew he was going to want to beat him up. Everyone did. He never did have a please life after his parents died. The other guy just said, "Shoe betiimal?” (Arabic for: What are you doing?)

“Huh?”

“I don’t think he understands us boss. Try this. Want to help us beat him up?” The second teenager asked slamming his fist in his palm pointing at Yugi. The blonde new guy made an “o” sound come out of his mouth and the three bullies nodded. The blonde smiled but Yugi couldn’t tell but he was sure he saw some sort of g tow towards his tormentors but didn’t understand. The blonde guy still smiled at the bullies. He walked up to them and suddenly punched the guy who asked him to beat up Yugi. he he beat up the other two guys like it was nothing. The three bullies ran off and the blonde guy turned to look at him with a smile. Yugi was scared and scurried backwards to keeps a distance. The blonde guy looked confused at why he was doing that.

“Malik! What are you doing?” Yugi heard from a guy at the end of the hall. The boy ran off towards them. He was white with soft chocolate brown eyes and flowing white hairs in like between his shoulder blades. He ran up to him and looked at Yugi. “What are you doing on the floor?” The boy asked in an accent.

Yugi that got up quickly and looked at them then a small smile came to his face. “Um thank you for helping me,” Yugi said bowing his head embarrassed and not sure what to do. He wasn't sure what was going to happen to him and then when he looked up the blonde boy hugged him. He was shocked by the show of affection and didn't know what to really do.

"Hey! My name is Malik Ishtar!" The blonde boy exclaimed once he let go of Yugi with a big smile on his face. It was strange and creepy but looked completely truthful. Yugi smiled back and started to feel more comfortable.

"Hi. I'm Yugi Mutuo."

"And I'm Ryou Bakura," The white haired boy added as they stood in a triangle and just looked at each other not knowing what to do. Ryou smiled and finally spoke. "We're the new transfer students. How about we become friends," Ryou wondered. Yugi thought about it and finally realized something. They didn't know them and after they saw how weak he was they still wanted to be his friend? He smiled. A genuine smile.

"That'd be great!"

Yugi felt sad thinking of never seeing the two again. He wanted his friends back. The only two people who wanted to be friends with him for just him. He didn't have to act like something he wasn't around them, no. He got to act like himself and they did the same. He could feel himself want to cry again. To scream how unfair his life was.

He felt Yami's arms tight around his waist in a grip that spoke that he would never let go. Yugi sighed as he rested his head on his Aibou's shoulder. He didn’t know why he couldn’t blame Yami. He knew it was the overprotective jerk’s fault but his heart just wouldn’t let him think that it was his fault. He hated feeling like this. He wasn’t supposed to feel this way towards a man. It wasn’t right. He wondered what his mother would think if she knew what was happening to her son. He didn’t think his father would mind because the man was one of them but would his mother mind this?

Yami’s arms tightened around Yugi’s waist again and didn’t mean to but made Yugi feel very small and helpless. Yugi never liked the feeling and Yami almost always made him feel it. He wasn’t allowed to make a lot decisions for his life anymore and Seto was right. He was lucky he was allowed to pick what he was wearing.

If it was my decision, little violet, you’d be wearing no clothing at all just so I can stare at you perfect body. Only for my eyes to see and no one else’s. Yugi could hear the whisper in his mind. A form of seduction and he was ashamed to realize it was working on him. He loved the sound of Yami’s voice in his mind. That Yami only wanted him. No one else. Not male or female. Just him. Only you, Yugi. I only want you. And that’s how it’ll stay. For all eternity.

Yami knew that he was harsh for making Yugi give up those friends that cared for him so well. But it was dangerous to have human friends. Yokuroians endanger their lives and he knew it would devastate him if something bad happened to Malik and Ryou but he just didn't agree with having the two men touch what was his. He just didn’t feel comfortable with another male around his Hikari.

But that isn't your decision to make. That's mine. I want to have friends Yami. Or do you really think I'll be unfaithful when there's nothing going on between us. Yugi answered back getting used to this mind connection to Yami now. It was becoming easier to him with every talk they had. He wondered why and hoped it wasn't because they were getting closer or that Yami was getting more control of him. I belong to myself. I don't belong to anyone else.

You belong to me. Yami proclaimed kissing the back of Yugi's neck enjoying the shiver he felt of down it. He knew that Yugi would only react to his touches and no one else's. He knew Yugi wanted to run away from this but he couldn't. If he left than the monster that grew inside Yami for three years would be releases. And that would be murderous for Yokuroians and humans alike.

I don't belong to anyone but myself. And don't do that. It's uncomfortable. Yugi replied not wanting to feel the tiny spark of pleasure from Yami's movements. He didn't want to admit that he liked it. It was wrong. He was supposed to like females not males. It was wrong. He couldn't wait till he woke up from this terrible dream and get to live a normal life again.

You mean this? Yami questioned innocently as he kissed the back of Yugi's neck again feeling the same shiver go through his Hikari's body. He enjoyed teasing Yugi. The boy would soon realize they were made for each other but if Yami had the patience was another story. He felt Yugi swat his hand for kissing him again and in public no doubt.

While Yugi and Yami were in there own conversation they didn't even notice the others talking to his grandparents. Yugi stopped to pay attention though when he heard something about his mother. He turned his head to look at Joey staring at his grandparents seriously.

"Now. I would very much appreciate it if you both would please tell me who this Sora Vitaku, Hikari of Yuki is?" Joey asked for the third time that day. He was getting very impatient and this time was determined to get the answer. He needed to know this woman who was Yugi's mother.

"Oh that was the reason you called me here for now wasn't?" Sugoroku laughed completely forgetting that that was the reason the prince asked him to be there. Mika and him remember Sora very clearly. The only person who had the guts to stand up to Yuki. The only person Yuki would ever be able to feel love for. The smiles and memories stayed imprinted in the two fro all eternity to remember the happiness in their son's eyes.

"I remember, Sora nicely. He was such a nice person. I could see why Yuki loved Sora so," Mika stated smiling at the memories too. She enjoyed thinking about it and than sad remembering that both of them were killed by a turned. She sighed already used to the sad pain of reality from her long years of life.

"Who is she?" Joey asked again not going to take it anymore. He needed an answer and being patient wasn't one of his strong points. He waited and saw confused faces on both of the ancients.

"My prince, Sora Vitaku is..."
