My Little One

Tea

Heba smiled warmly at Yugi. |Yugi returned the smile as Atem called a guard in and ordered him to take Minasuki to a room.

"I see you've gotten better," Heba admits as Minasuki gets lead out by a guard. "You'd never leave my side before." He reminds and Yugi stays with Atem.

"I know..." Yugi admits and Atem wraps a gentle arm around him. "But then again, me and Atem have had some quality time together," Yugi adds and Heba's shocked.

"You two...are together?!" He suddenly asks and Atem hushes him. "I can't say much..." He murmurs and a red tint comes to his cheeks.

"Yami and you?" Atem asks and Yugi's shocked. "I guess he asked before you left?" Atem guesses and Heba nods.

Yugi jumps up and runs to Heba, then pauses in front of him.

"We haven't conciliated it yet." Heba whispers and Yugi sighs in relief. "Else I would not be standing." Heba jokes and Yugi gently hits him around the back of the head for it.

"Not funny." Yugi murmurs and Heba captures him in a none-too-gentle noogie. "H-Heba!" Yugi cried out and Heba smirked.

"I'm meant to be protective, am I not?" Heba questions and Yugi tries to fight his way free. "I'm the stronger one." Heba teases and Yugi smirks, kicking his leg up and successfully making Heba drop to his knees.

Both Heba and Yugi were shaken awake violently. Yugi slowly opened his eyes to see Tea and Anzu. Both were stood in front of a cage that was on top of Atem's palace. It was close to the edge. Anzu still had her hand on the corner of the cage.

"You're my toy now, Heba," Anzu told him and knelt down in front of the cage with her sister. "You're Tea's, Yugi," Anzu informed and Yugi tensed.

"We aren't toys." Heba growled and Yugi closed his eyes. "We're humans!" Heba yelled as a guard came onto the roof.

"GUARD!" Yugi's high pitched voice traveled faster than the girls could stop him and the guards looked over.

Both Tea and Anzu froze as the two guards ran to save the boys. They pulled the boys out. Anzu managed to knock them both out with two rocks and Tea's shocked.

Both girls ran inside after locking Yugi and Heba back in the cage.

"Heba?" Yugi murmurs, hiding his face. "Why are they doing this?" He asks, a tone of pain in his voice.

Heba gently lifted his brothers head and gasped. Yugi's eyes were a dull amethyst and he had a black eye and tears running down his face.

"I don't know. Fathers too sick to help." Heba tells him, pulling him into a hug.

After 2 days, both Heba and Yugi are getting sickly. Anzu and Tea had not come back up. Atem appeared on the roof and Yugi was leaning on Heba.

"Atem!" Heba called in an raspy tone and Atem turned. "Save us..." He called and Atem sprinted over.

Yugi clung to Heba as Atem broke the cage lock and checked the guards. Heba lifted Yugi as they climbed out.

"Go to Atem, Yugi." Heba told Yugi, who shakily put his arms out to Atem. "His legs won't be able to hold him." Heba warned Atem as he took Yugi.

"Who did this?" Atem asks, cradling Yugi in his firm grip.

"I'll deal with that." Heba told him and kissed Yugi's head. "Behave, Yugi. I won't be long." Heba admits and Yugi sighs.

"Father called you to a meeting?" Yugi asked and Heba nodded sadly. "Tell him to let you free tomorrow." Yugi told him and Heba sighs.

"I highly doubt he'll let me." Heba admits and Yugi looks down. "I'll ask nonetheless." Heba promises and quickly falls backwards, making Atem catch him as Yami comes onto the roof.

Yami runs up and takes Heba into his arms.
