Escape: Chapter 3
By: LowFlyer1080
Author's Note: Wow, been a while since I updated THIS one. And looking back on it, chapter two was really short…and really lacking on the description too… Damn I suck Hope you enjoy this chapter. Not sure how long I'll make this story or when it'll be completed either. Oh, and one more note:
I PWN. TEH END!
LF1080: -Huggles the Dark Magician Girl- Squishy and soft and pillowy. I think I'll take a nap. -snuggles into her chest and falls asleep-
DMG: T-T -sigh- oh well. Guess I'm saying the DISCLAIMER: then. LowFlyer1080 does not own Yu-Gi-OH!, so now you greedy f-s can't sue us. thhbppttt :P
LF1080: -mumbling in his sleep- Mmmm, no thanks, I don't like government cheese. -unconsciously fluffs DMG's bountiful chest like two pillows and snuggles back in-
DMG: -thinks to herself- Why do I put up with this shit?
LF1080: -mumbling in his sleep- Because I love you.
"Is something wrong, Master Yugi? You look so sad." The taller woman asked, putting her arm around the shorter Yugi, pulling him close as they walked. Her heart nearly exploded with joy as she saw and felt him wrap his arms around her waist and squeeze her gently.
"I was just thinking about this morning. So much has happened since I woke up, I'm not sure if I even want to come back. But if Change of Heart appeared as my future, I know I will return here. I just don't want to think about why, that's all. And yet, I can't help it." Yugi confessed as he stopped and turned to the beautiful woman in his arms.
"Everything will be alright, my master. I will not abandon you. And neither will your deck. Come whatever may, we will always be there for you. I will always be there for you." She whispered in his ear as she held him.
They stood like that, attracting a few stares but not caring in the least. Yugi felt so safe in Mana's arms. His mind was telling him this was a bit strange. Not more than six hours ago, this young and attractive woman was nothing more than a picture on a trading card. But he knew better. After all his experiences, he knew it was more than a game. There was magic involved. And even though the Dark Magician Girl was a Dark-type monster, she had a heart of gold. It felt so good to be with her, and he was happy knowing that she would always be with him. Of all his cards, even his signature card, the powerful Dark Magician, the Dark Magician Girl had always been the most precious to him. He never really knew why, but she was. He blushed as he felt her hold tighten slightly, squeezing his face closer to her soft and bountiful assets, before letting go.
"We must be on our way, Master. Our plane will be leaving soon. Although it would be faster if I just teleported us, flying is less dangerous."
"Why is that? There are plane crashes all the time." Yugi asked as they both picked up their carry-on bags once again and began walking toward the terminal.
"If I cannot see where I am teleporting to, or see an up-to-date picture of where I'm going, or have a memory of the place, I could wind up teleporting right into a wall or building or tree. And that'd end the trip real fast. Plus I've always wanted to fly on a plane. It looked so fun whenever I watched them from the Shadow Realm."
Yugi couldn't help but laugh at that. Mana smiled as she finally saw him looking better for once on this day that had started out so terribly for her young master. She would do her best to make sure his life was filled with nothing but joy.
"Since you've never flown before, I'll let you have the window seat. The view at night from the plane is amazing. All you can see are patches of sparkling lights from the towns and cities below." Yugi was animated as he talked about his past experiences flying. Mana listened intently, hanging on his every word. They quieted down a few minutes later as the flight attendant addressed the passengers.
"Welcome to Tokyo Air, flight number 666, non-stop to Hawaii International Airport, United States. An in-flight movie will be shown, headphones can be found in the seatbacks of the row in front of you. Our estimated flight time is 5 hours. Snacks and drinks will be offered once we reach our cruising altitude of 32,000 feet. We'd like to thank you for choosing Tokyo Air. Please sit back, relax, and enjoy your flight." A pretty blonde stewardess, her hair done up in dual odangos and pigtails said over the microphone. She hung up and moved toward the cockpit, disappearing behind the curtain. A few moments later another announcement was heard.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. My name is Lt. Commander Rinato Katahari. I hope you all enjoy the flight. Please take a minute to familiarize yourself with the overhead consoles. In the case of an emergency, oxygen masks will drop down in front of you for your use. Should anything happen, please remain calm and don't panic. Once again, myself and the crew would like to thank you for flying Tokyo Air. We will be taking off shortly as I have just been given clearance from the tower to taxi toward the runway. Please sit back and enjoy the ride."
Through the insulated sides of the plane, Yugi, Mana, and the passengers heard the engines wind up as the plane slowly moved forward. Mana and Yugi watched the tarmac slide smoothly under the plane as they taxied toward the end of the runway. The plane turned and stopped, sitting at the end of the tarmac as the final confirmation for take-off was cleared. The captain came over the intercom again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Tokyo Tower has reported in. The skies are clear, wind is negligible. Perfect weather for flying. We've been cleared for take-off. Please fasten your seatbelts and make sure your tray tables and seatbacks are in their upright and locked positions. We'll begin once this is completed."
Yugi turned to Mana and helped her get strapped in. Unfortunately, this required him leaning over her to reach around for the belt, which, as she leaned back, put his face almost square in between her breasts. A blush came to his face as he grabbed the belt and brought it across her waist, clicking it in place and cinching it down.
"Is it too tight?" Yugi shyly asked.
"No, it's perfect." Mana said, blushing herself.
"Good." Was all he replied as he strapped himself in. He turned back to the blonde woman a stupidly silly grin on his face. "This is my favorite part of flying, other than being up in the air at night. Take off."
Mana grinned at him as he smiled back. Just then, they were both forced back in their seats as the engines of the plane roared suddenly to life, making Mana jump and grab Yugi's hand. The tarmac began to slide faster and faster underneath them as she watched out the window, a look of pure delight on her face. Suddenly, the nose tilted up and the ground began to slowly fall away. They were airborne! The plane banked to the left and slowly circled the airport, giving Mana and Yugi a perfect view of the ground as they came around, rising higher and higher. Yugi glanced down at their hands. Mana noticed this and, a furious blush on her face, moved to pull her hand away. Without even thinking, Yugi followed her hand, and caught it in his gentle grasp once again, this time threading their fingers together in a lover's hold. He blushed as well and turned to look straight ahead. Mana blushed again and turned to look back out the window. Inside her heart was fluttering. Yugi's hand was warmer than she had thought; his touch was gentle. She smiled inwardly. He had so much courage and so much devotion. Even after all that had transpired that day, he was still the same old Yugi. She felt her love for him grow inside her at this.
Mana's hand was soft and gentle, Yugi noticed as he took her hand again, and it was very warm. He felt a flutter in his chest as he captured her hand, preventing its retreat. He recognized it for what it was; he had gotten them around Tea. But never like this before. This was stronger, and lasted for a greater amount of time. His mind could hardly believe what his heart was telling him. He was falling for Mana! The Dark Magician Girl! A beautiful young woman who up until 8 hours ago, had been nothing more than a picture on a trading card. But as he remembered, she had always held a special place in his eyes. He recalled the duel with Strings, when he faced down the all powerful Slifer the Sky Dragon. How he had sent Mana into battle against the beast and the fear he felt that she would very likely be killed. He remembered the sharp stab of pain in his chest when she had been cut down by Slifer's Thunderforce attack. He pulled his deck out of his carry-on with his free right hand and set it down on the tray-table he had folded down from the seat in front of him. Mana watched, quietly, as he gently sorted through the deck until he found the card he was looking for: one of the three Egyptian Gods, the card that had destroyed Mana in that duel. Slifer the Sky Dragon stared up at him from the card.
"I didn't want to send you into battle against Her that day, Mana. I swear to God I did not." Yugi whispered as he looked down at the divine-beast type in his hand.
"You did what you had to do, my master. I hold no ill will against you for that. Even from the card graveyard I watched you battle against a god. I knew in my heart you would win, and you did."
"But you shouldn't have had to pay the price for it. I know that after a duel all cards are returned to the deck, but still…" a single tear found its way to the young man's face as he continued, "it was too high a price."
Mana did not know what to say in return, so she just squeezed his hand gently and covered their hands with her other one. Yugi placed Slifer down on the tray and searched through his deck a little further, finding the other two gods, Obelisk the Tormentor and The Winged Dragon of Ra. He placed them next to Slifer. Mana and Yugi could both feel the power of the cards flowing off them like the chilled air from off a cold glass in a warm, humid room. After Yami and Yugi had separated, Yugi had let Yami take the Egyptian God cards. But each time he summoned the beasts in a duel against his opponent, for some reason, they would not obey him. They did not do anything but stand there. Yami finally gave up and gave them back to Yugi. They had not been played since.
"They spoke to me, Master Yugi. When they appeared before me to release me from my Duel Monster form, they spoke to me. They would not obey the Pharaoh because of the way he and his friends began treating you. The Gods of Egypt are yours…and yours alone to command. They will no longer follow anyone else. Not Marik, not Yami, not Pegasus, not Shaadi or Ishizu or even Seto Kaiba; they will only respond to you, master."
"I don't think I have the strength to ever summon them if I ever duel again. I'm not sure I deserve to have command over such power…" Yugi whispered, as the two stared down at the three cards. Yugi sighed before shuffling them gently back into his deck and putting it in his inside jacket pocket. "I'm not sure of anything anymore…" he leaned his head back and closed his eyes. But still, his hand held Mana's, and Mana accepted Yugi's actions as a sign that the topic was no longer open for discussion. She squeezed his hand reassuringly once more before turning to look back out the window at the passing clouds, the sky growing steadily darker as the plane raced across the sky away from the sun. The entire flight to Hawaii, they rode like that, fingers intertwined as they held hands. Each lost in their respective thoughts.
Author's Note: Sorry for the long time coming update, but I hope this chapter redeems me for the past two which weren't worth shit. Questions, comments, reviews are all welcome. Flames will be redirected back to sender via my sexy fantasy girlfriend, the Dark Magician Girl, and her Magic Cylinders.
