Atem lifted his head, rather suddenly, after a few long, silent stretches of time in Ember's room. He couldn't think of anything to say to her. He could have sworn he had heard Yugi. Not actually heard him, but through the mind link... Without saying anything to Ember, he got up and went out of the room, looking around. He wandered around the hospital, wondering if his hikari had left already. Probably. He guessed that the kid just needed some time to think.
Back at the house, Ryou and Khalid had made up. Quite a lot, actually. Khalid, pressed for company, had done some of his most skilled persuasion and managed to get Ryou to lower his guard. He was quite skilled at manipulating human emotions and using them for his own good. It didn't take him very long to get Ryou naked and practically begging to be ********. This was, of course, just as Khalid had wanted, and was happy to comply. Their makeshift marriage needed some copulation to get it working right. Even if Khalid was doing his best to bring Kira back, he didn't want to give Ryou up first getting a prize.
Yugi woke, but didn't open his eyes. He took a few moments to try and clear his mind, try to remember what he had been doing. He felt propped up in a sitting position, and he was bound somehow. Where was he? When the curiosity was too great for him to bear, he opened his eyes. It took a little bit for his eyes to focus, but he noticed with a start that he was chained to a chair. Looking around, squinting, he tried to see where he was. He noticed Kawi on a table and suddenly his memories came rushing back at him.
