Chapter Two

"Grandpa..?" Yugi began
tentatively as he set down his chopsticks.
"Yes, Yugi?"
Solomon said calmly as he gathered up the dishes to wash them.
Wide innocent eyes peered up at his grey-haired Grandfather,
Yugi absently fiddled with the Puzzle as he tried to
ask his question,
"When I was younger...when...when Dad was...still
alive," He began stammering slightly, "Did I ever...have
nightmares?"
Solomon's expression froze for just a second, but he
answered casually,
"Of course, Yugi.
All children have nightmares occasionally."
Yugi shook his head, looking down
at the table.
"Please, Grandpa. I don't just mean an occasional bad
dream...I mean something serious."
Solomon's shoulders bowed slightly, as though he were
carrying some great weight, and then he sighed deeply,
"It had us all so worried," He began in a defeated
sort of voice, "You mother and father and I. Nothing we could think of
really helped. We tried nightlights, one of us staying with you, lullabies...everything.
But no matter what we did, you always woke up screaming. You were so
young...but we could all work out the words 'shadows' and 'darkness' that you
babbled when you woke."
Yugi stared in astonishment and in
the back of his mind, he could feel the spirit
stirring something like surprise or alarm filtering through their bond,
"What did you do?" He asked softly.
"The doctor couldn't find anything wrong, and you were
too young to be given sleeping drugs. We finally ended up taking you to a
psychologist..." Here Solomon paused as though loath to speak anymore,
"He recommended hypnotherapy."
Yugi fought back the surge of raw
anger he felt on finding out his mind had been tampered with, recognising that
not all of that heated surge of emotion was his own. Solomon stared miserably
at his grandson with violet eyes so much like his own.
"I'm so sorry, Yugi. But it
was all we could think of to do. It was making you ill..." He trailed off
helplessly.
Yugi nodded shortly, slipping down
from the kitchen chair.
"Thanks for telling me, Grandpa." He said quietly,
"I think I'm gonna need to think about all of
this."
He barely heard his Grandfather's quiet acknowledgement.

Yugi made his was back up to his
room and threw himself on the bed, trying to get his jangling emotions under
control.
He couldn't blame his Grandpa, or his parents, really.
They'd been worried - scared - and done they only thing they could. But even
so...someone had tampered with him. Blocked off a part of
him...a painful part, maybe, but still a part of him.
Then Yugi felt a comforting hand
stroke his hair gently, Yugi looked up to see his
ghostly other half sat on the edge of the bed.
"Yami..." He began, but
his partner interrupted him,
"I heard," The Spirit soothed, "It's all
right."
Yugi leaned into the gentle
caresses Yami was giving him. Why? Why had no one
ever told him, or even mentioned it? That surely meant that whatever 'blocks'
had been put in place to stop the nightmares were still there. Why had they
never been removed? Frustration made tears gather in the corner of his eyes and
his teeth grind together...had they thought he was damaged somehow?
"Aibou," Yami's deep, rich voice cut through his anguished thoughts
and Yugi looked up into his other half's crimson
eyes, "I could probably dissolve any blocks in your mind, if you
wish."
Yugi started. He desperately
wanted to say 'yes' but at the same time...
"What if the nightmares come back?" He asked. Yami smiled and stroked Yugi's
hair again,
"I will defend you from any dark dreams, Hikari."
Yugi sat up and nodded, "Do
it."
Insubstantial fingers reached out to touch Yugi's face, and he felt a strange
warmth, and a peculiar tingling in his temples...then...

The sun beat down like a hammer on an anvil,
the air was dry, dusty, and filled with the scent of incense and spices, as
well as the far less pleasant smell of dried animal dung.
He was stood next to a huge wedge-shaped wall, covered in
smooth plaster and painted in stunning beautiful designs. Stretched out in
front of him was a long collonade lined either side
with statues of crouching lions...sphinxes..?
Something glinted from inside the huge walls - a tall
needle-shaped pillar, its point covered with a crown of shining gold...

Yami's fingers dropped from Yugi's face, both their faces recognising their total
shock. They both recognised that vision as an unmistakable look at Ancient
Egypt...had that really been Yugi's memory?
Determined violet eyes met crimson as Yugi
spoke,
"Keep going."
