Chapter Eight: Eventually Gone, Finally Free

 

 

I tried to be as gentle as possible as I cleaned his wounds.
But he squirmed in pain under my touches non the less.

 

 

“I’m sorry,” I whispered.

 

 

He turned his head, teares hanging in the corners of his
eyes, but he smiled.

 

 

“It’s okay. It’s not your fault,” he said, his voice
cracking slightly.

 

 

I smiled back at him as I bandaged the last injuries on his
back and walked around him to kneel by his legs. I put my hands on his knees,
asking the same question he sure as hell was already tiered to hear again:

 

 

“You sure you are alright?”

 

 

He just nodded at me and pulled me up on the bed with him to
hug me.

 

 

“I am. As soon you were there, everything was fine. How did
you find me?” He whispered into my ear, pulling back a bit. I couldn’t help
myself any longer as I looked into his beautiful, amethyst eyes. I just leaned
foreward, my lips brushing against his softly. He responded ever so slightly,
his eyes fluttering closed just like mine. The sensation was overwhelming and
we shared every bit of it, not only physically but mentally as well. It didn’t
last long until we both pulled away, staring into the others eyes and smiling.
His eyes were shining so brightly I could have drowned in them.

 

 

He sighed softly, closing his eyes again for a moment,
seemingly enjoying the moment. He lay down on the bed, pulling me with him and
snuggling into my chest.

 

 

“The puzzle showed me the way. It started gleaming with my
tears. Seems like you had a great effect on it as holder. It found you on it’s
own account,” I said, sighing at my inability to find my loved one myself. Yugi
sighed, too, but apparently content with what he heared. He just hugged me a
bit tighter

 

 

“I’m so tiered,” he manged between two yawnes and I had to
chuckle.

 

 

I pulled the covers over the both of us, cradling him to my
chest carefully, not wanting to squeez one of his still bleeding wounds. He
sighed again, resting his head at the crook of my neck and slowly his breathing
became even with sleep. I kissed his forehead, an action I enjoyed. It didn’t
only calm him, but me as well, when he was upset about something. I pulled his
hand that was resting on my chest to my heart, covering it with mine. I tried
to fall asleep as well, listening to his soft breathing.

 

 

I don’t know how long I was lying there awake not
being able to sleep, until I heared a strange noice downstairs in the house.

 

 

I didn’t want to wake Yugi, so I carefully wiggeld out
underneath him, tiptoeing down the stairs into the living room where I supposed
the noice came from. I didn’t get the chance to turn on the light as I was hit
hard on the head. I sunk down the wall, trying not to fall unconcious. I
blinked a few times, not being able to make out anything, but doged
instictively as I heared a hissing sound indicating another hit. The hard
object crashed into the wall and I scrambled to my feet and in the direction of
the door to finally turn on the light. I reached the switch and was able to
duck another try with what I then saw was a baseball bat (cliché!!!!!!!). And
of course it was her again. I didn’t get how somebody could be as stupid as
that. She stopped when the lights went on and looked at me, panting slightly.

 

 

“You thought you won, didn’t you? But you will never win,
never.”

 

 

She lunched at me, but I wouldn’t let her get to me. I was
an ancient Pharaoh after all. I used the power of my millenium puzzle and
prevented her from moving, the bat flying into my hands.

 

 

Her eyes widened in shock as she had to endure my strong
shadow powers yet again.

 

 

“Do you think I’m going to beat you? Of course you do, but I
tell you something, I’m not going to lower me to your level. Never would I be
able to do something like that. You are a monster, you are ill and I’m not
going to let you hurt Yugi again,” I growled, shattering her baseball bat into
pieces.

 

 

The Eye of Ra now glowing on my forehead again I walked
towards her, all the mental images I had to see from Yugi, though
involuntarily, flashing through my head and making me blind with rage. This
would be the very last time for Anzu to ever come near this house again. She
would never threaten Yugi or anybody else again, not as long as I was alive.

 

 

She tried to struggle as I came nearer and nearer and it
made me smile, the same michievous smile she had used on Yugi. Now she knew how
it felt to be trapped, not being able to move away when you knew something bad
was going to happen. I slowly lifted my hand to her forehead. She was still
struggling against the magic, trashing her head from side to side. But there
was no way she would get away this time, my decision was already made and
nothing was going to change my mind. Nothing.

 

 

I held her head with my powers as well, touching her
forehead with my palm. She screamed in agony as her body slowly vanished into
the depth of the Shadow Realm, where she belonged, from where she was never
going to come back. I would make sure of that.

 

 

I sunk to the ground, exhausted as I heared someone rushing
down the steps and running into the living room.

 

 

“Yami!” he screamed, kneeling down beside me, Sugoroku
standing in the doorframe, panting.

 

 

I looked up at him, concern written all over his face. I
smiled weakly at him as he lifted his hand to my face, flinching. I hadn’t
noticed the blood trickling down my face in my anger and instantly the pain
kicked in as well, making me groan.

 

 

Yugi scrambled to his feet, retrieving the first aid kit
from his room and tending to my head.

 

 

“What happened,” he asked in a soft voice, Grandpa helping
me to stand and leading me to the couch.

 

 

I told them everything about the earlier events and Yugi
shuddered in my arms.

 

 

“Did you really have to ban her? She screamed so hard. That
shocked me, Yami.”

 

 

“I’m sorry for that, Little One. But I couldn’t stand her
any longer and she wouldn’t have left you alone. She would have taken any
chance to come back for us.”

 

 

He nodded slowly, Sugoroku standing up and leaving us. I
took it as agreement as he wanted to call the police earlier.

 

 

I carried Yugi back up to our room, tugging the both of us
in and cradling him to my chest again. We stayed like that for a while until he
shifted lightly, pecking me on the cheek and snuggling into me. It didn’t take
long for him to fall asleep again and I soon followed, listening to his
heartbeat.

 

 

 

 

Wow, Anzu’s gone! Sorry Anzu-fans, but I don’t like her! I
do know she was OOC, but that doesn’t bother me one bit. Anyway, thank you for
reading! There is only one chapter left and I think it will be posted on
Tuesday or latest on Wednesday. I promise Yami/Yugi fluff and my first lemon!
