Two years pass with no sign of Yugi or Heba. That fateful night, Yami and Atemu ran to the spot they saw in their vision only to find patches and splatters of blood.
Ryou and Malik denied knowing where they were after they were admitted into Domino City Hospital. They had gotten Mokuba to convince Seto to investigate the matter but he couldn't find any trace of the two.
Today was two years to the day that Yugi and Heba had gone missing.
"They would have been turning eighteen today," Yami said leaning back against Atemu's chest. "I miss our hikari's."
"I know habibi," Atemu said running his fingers through Yami's hair. "I miss them too." He looked out their bedroom window.
In their despair, the had turned to each other for comfort. Over the two years, they had developed a loving relationship that drew them so close to each other as they had been with their hikari's.
"Did you hear that?" Yami asked, suddenly sitting up.
"Hear what?"
A click sound like the front door shutting then a clack sound of it being locked again was heard.
"That!" Yami hissed as the two got up and made their way downstairs to investigate. They watched from the shadows as a youth rummaged through their lounge.
The youth had the same black and red tipped hair with yellow bangs as them but instead of it sticking up, it flowed down his back like a waterfall. The most shocking of all were the four white wings that protruded from his back.
"I can sense them here, Heba." Yami recognised the voice as Yugi's. "I have no idea where they hid themselves." There was a long pause before he said, "That is a good idea."
Yugi raised his hands to his chest, entwining his fingers as if to pray to the heavens. "Isis…" His head snapped up in the direction of the bedroom he and Yami use to share. "Found her." Another pause. "You want to switch to find Ishizu?"
Yami and Atemu's eyes widened in shock as the wings turned black. Were they to believe Yugi and Heba now shared a body?
"Yugi," Heba looked around cautiously, the hidden yami's saw the rich purple eyes. "I just had a thought. What if Yami and Atemu are here?" His eyes seemed to look inward for a second before he said, "I guess you're right." Raising his right hand high, he called "Ishizu!" he looked towards the room he and Atemu use to share. "So they are both upstairs… You want to switch back? This is your body after all."
Yami and Atemu's mouths dropped as Heba lowered his head, eyes closed while the wings turned white one more. The eyes opened to reveal clear amethyst eyes.
"I swear when I see Ushio again I'm going to murder him for doing that to us," Yugi said with venom in his voice as he climbed the stairs to the second level. "We could have both died that night." Another pause. "I know Heba…" Yugi stopped at the top of the stairs and sighed. "You know that I wouldn't do that to you." He sat down with his head in his hands. "You saved me. I wanted you to survive in spirit at least." A long pause before Yugi sighed and stood again. "Yes, we need to find them."
Yugi stepped into his old bedroom and stared wide-eyed around the room. "There's no dust in here…" He picked up the golden box his Millennium Puzzle had come in and opened it.
Yami and Atemu reached the top of the stairs in time to see a bright white ball of light shoot out of the box and hit Yugi in the face.
"Master Yugi!" cried a little fairy wearing a pale blue, off the shoulder, knee length dress. "You shouldn't have left me in there so long! I was so worried!"
"Isis…" Yugi said patiently.
"Why didn't you listen to me before going to the council meeting?" Isis asked, pulling on one of Yugi's golden bangs. "Something bad could of happened!"
"Something did, Isis." Yugi said raising his hand so the fairy could stand instead of fly. "Did you know?"
"I knew an attack on you and Master Heba was planned but I didn't know what. Ishizu and I wanted to warn you before you left," Isis sat on Yugi's hand. Her green eyes stared up at him worriedly. "What happened?"
"Ushio attacked us that night," Yugi sat on the bed. "We got our asses royally handed to us."
"You sound more like Master Heba," Isis said with a giggle. It died off as she noticed the sad look in his eyes. "There's more?"
Yugi nodded and sighed. "We were dying. Heba bled out completely and passed away before we reached Heaven. Gabriel-sama and Michael-sama made the decision to use Heba's body to save me as we couldn't bring the dead back to life.
Isis gasped in horror. She flew up and pulled hard on Yugi's tunic to reveal a long scar that ran the length of his chest. "What did they do?"
"Well…"
