The pain and screams faded, and Yugi was enveloped in darkness.
He did not know where he was, nor did he waste time wondering. He sleepily observed the floor below-- it was brick, unmistakably Ancient Egyptian.
He wanted to kneel and touch the cool, hard brick, confirm that it was real. He tried to extend his hand, and he got closer to it, but his arm did not reach for it. In fact, he could not see his arm, or sense it the way he normally could. He tried to look down at himself and saw nothing.
"What....???"
He willed himself to move, and he did, but he did not take a step or shift his stance, he merely lilted on the air, like a dust mote.
Oh no... I've become a floating spirit. I really have died!
"STOP IT!! STOP IT!!!"
Malik whirled around, sucking in a huge gasp. "What the hell was that!?"
He turned into his yami, who broke into a run, heading straight for the source of the screams.
They found Yugi and Eiri Yuki laying on the floor, not moving.
"Oh, shit, what happened to them? Are they okay?" panted Malik.
Fluffy knelt down and peered into their faces. "They're gone", he said. "Someone banished them to the Shadow Realm..."
Something caught his eye and he snatched it up. "With this." It was the Sennen rod.
They found the Millennium Puzzle close by.
"But it's missing a piece. You said Ryou has it, right, Fluffy?"
"Yeah, so it should be safe. We just have to find those two."
"I wonder how they're doing right now... Rebecca, that rotten little bitch."
"Where is she", Fluffy wondered aloud, "where would she have gone?"
"Okay, think. What was Samara's motivation in The Ring?"
"I think we've long since established that she's not Samara. That was just a movie."
"But she's still a girl. A damaged girl with a broken heart."
Found it in Egypt... It's for you... I feel like you're meant to have it...
Dad, I hate you so much.
He felt like this was the perfect time to cry, but no tears came. He felt so cold and alone, even as he was warmed in Bakura's embrace. Bakura had not spoken or moved in quite some time now.
Ryou still couldn't move or open his eyes. He couldn't fight the feeling that if he tried to speak, he would be unable to part his lips. All he could do was rue the day his father had given him the Millennium Ring and let depression take him deeper and deeper inside himself.
Is this what it's like to be sealed in the Millennium Items? A person could go mad...
"Yami! Yami, PLEASE!!"
Yugi was overcome with frantic fear as he moved through the labyrinthine interior of what could only be the Millennium Puzzle.
He's here! He must be! If I just keep searching, I'll find him!
"Yugi..."
A figure loomed in the corridor ahead, standing in the shadows. Yugi recognized the star-shaped hair immediately.
"Yami?" If Yugi had had a physical form, he would've wept.
He lifted his arms, offering Yugi his embrace.
"Come here, Yugi..."
"Yami!!" Overjoyed, he made a beeline--
-- And stopped cold. It was as if Yami were surrounded by an invisible barrier-- once he crossed it, an icy fear seized him and he felt as if he should not proceed.
What is this... frightening aura? "Yami?"
He was able to see Yami's eyes now, and the sight made him feel sick. They were not the bold crimson eyes of his true love-- they were golden eyes that gleamed with a demonic light.
The imposter sneered, annoyed at having been found out.
"I said come here!"
He reached for Yugi and long black tendrils of hair shot out, snatching Yugi's spirit and drawing him in.
"NO! YAMI!! HELP!!"
He held Yugi in his hands, laughing as Yugi struggled to get free. "The Pharaoh won't help you. You belong to me now, got it?"
Ryou felt and heard when Bakura suddenly shifted positions, but was startled to hear him whimper in pain.
As if a spell had been lifted, he was able to open his eyes and move now. He leaned up on one elbow, looking over at Bakura.
The thief king lay whimpering and grimacing in pain, but Ryou could not see anything happening to him.
"Bakura, what's wrong? Are you having a nightmare? Wake up."
He reached for his yami, intending to wake him, but before he could touch Bakura's arm, something came over him-- an intense feeling of being weighed down, as if the gravity had suddenly multiplied. His arm fell and thumped on the stone surface, dead weight. His fear became agony when he felt the pain, a white-hot bolt of lightning that traveled up his spine, frying his innards. It sustained, and he wanted to scream, but his jaw was clamped shut. All he could do was grimace and whimper, like Bakura. Through the haze and pain he felt himself growing weaker.
Hot tears streaked down his bronze face, a sharp contrast to the cold rain.
"Oh..." He choked back a sob. "Oh, Gods, oh, dear Gods, they're cold..."
Malik's head fell forward and his body shuddered. When he looked up again, he was his yami.
Fluffy scooped Ryou's cold, motionless body into his arms and carried him inside.
"Emergency room", said Malik. "Doctors..."
He ran in that direction, laying Ryou on a gurney, but not knowing what to do next.
He shook his head. His voice sounded small and dry as he muttered, "It's not like I can wrap some gauze around his neck..."
He turned back into Malik, who began to sob.
After a minute or two, still sniffling, he stumbled outside to where Bakura lay. He kneeled beside the thief and tried to wake him.
"He's already dead", Fluffy told him.
Malik broke into a new string of sobs, and Fluffy was at a loss.
Please... He didn't know what to tell his hikari. Don't cry. I'm still here...
He stayed within their mind, listening as Malik wept, watching Bakura's face. He kept expecting him to wake, but not even a single muscle twitched. After a few minutes, Malik seemed to calm down.
He caressed Bakura's cold, clammy face. "I understand now. This was your solution... the only way to save your souls." He kissed Bakura's icy lips. He then whispered, "I love you."
He took the thin, pale corpse into his arms and carried him inside so Ryou and Bakura could be together.
