A/N : Okay, yeah, so here goes another try with this writing thing. (
Seto/Jou fic, and other pairings.
It's finally the last chapter! Whoa! So this is the first ADT episode, wait until we get to number 2!
. . High Tide 5 . . The rain had stopped. finally, but it was a while ago, longer than Yami wanted to admit to himself. All the people that dwelt in the pharaoh's city lived. except for two of his closest friends, Ryou and Bakura, both dying because of the love they had for each other, and his high priest was still missing along with his slave, Jou.
Yami had a constant look out for the two because he hoped against all hope that they would be alright.
"Yami."
He turned around at the sound of his name from his aibou. "Are you feeling better today?"
"Yes, Yami," Yugi walked to the balcony where he was standing, "I'm completely well today." He became solemn, "Has Seto and his friend returned yet?"
"No not today, but absolutely no rain cloud in the sky. It's been clear for a week now. Forty days. It rained for forty days and we didn't evacuate until the last few days. How stupid could we have been? It's surprising how I can save a whole city but I cannot save those closest to me."
"Don't blame yourself. You got everyone to safety. Seto is a strong person, and you would not have been able to do anything for him by going back. You know it." Yugi gave him a hug.
Yami held on tightly as if Yugi were the only thing keeping him grounded in this world. "I just wish."
The wings of a monster could be heard in the air, and sure enough, Honda yelled out, "Yami, something's coming this way."
"Is it Seto?" Yami yelled back, straining his eyes to see what approached.
But it wasn't a Blue Eyes White Dragon that flew towards the city. It was a Red Eyes Black Dragon.
"Is it hostile?" Yami called back.
"No, great pharaoh," Honda replied, "It looks weak and can barely stay in the air. It poses no threat."
It was very nerve racking moments before the Red Eyes Black Dragon landed in the outskirts of the city, and Yami, Yugi, Tea, and Honda were sure to be there when it did.
Off of the giant beast fell a semi conscious Jou, and soon after the beast disappeared back to the Shadow Realm.
So many questions ran through the minds of the four teenagers as they helped Jou into the city and to a healer. Where was Seto? What about the collar around his neck? How did he survive? But most importantly, What happened?
It was two days before Jou was able to come before the pharaoh and the others to share his story, and nervous as he was, he was more distressed to have to repeat what had transpired. He was almost already in tears at the memory.
Jou started with the sight that will forever be imprinted on his memory, "Back in the city lies Seto. the high priest dead with his faithful three Blue Eyes White Dragon dead as well surrounding him."
~~~~~~
Seto did the only thing that he knew he could do, he summoned his Blue Eyes White Dragons in order to protect himself and me. The Red Eyes Black Dragon was no match for his three dragons, but then the Flame Swordsman also appeared.
Where had the other monster come from? I'm sure Seto wondered as he watched his dragons do battle.
That was the least of his worries though because every monster in my deck appeared before his eyes, and even though his three Blue Eyes White Dragon's were powerful, he could not summon any other because his energy was slowly fading and the throb in his head was no longer dull but increased a hundred fold. Seto doubted he'd be able to sustain his three Dragons much less call upon some reinforcements.
The water was rising higher and higher, and he had to keep me and himself afloat.
The Time Wizard, Panther Warrior, Baby Dragon, no Thousand Dragon, Landostar Swordsman, and so many more monsters than Seto could see because his Dragons' attacks were mixing in with the flashing of the lightning, and the thunder mixed with the roars. of pain?
Alone, none of my monsters would be able to defeat the Blue Eyes White Dragons, but together and with the unlimited power they had from the Shadow Realm along with the weakened state of Seto to sustain the Dragons they were losing.
Seto would not stand to see his Dragons beaten.
They were their only defense, and he couldn't just let the monsters kill him. He looked me in the eyes and said, "I love you."
Only then did I snap out of his catatonic state after he heard the defeat in Seto's voice. "What are you doing?"
"Saving you," Seto simply said, "Remember I love you anytime and any place no matter what." He left me alone after making sure I was able to stay afloat. He swam off to the direction of the great battle. Had anyone been there to see it, they would agree with me when I say that it was the most spectacular sight I've ever seen and the biggest clash against some of the strongest beasts and monsters of the Shadow Realm to ever occur, and Seto swam right into it.
I followed him because I wouldn't let him face this alone. He looked so defiant, so. resolved, and just so that I could live.
He started to rise from the water, energy surrounding his very being. He looked like an angel with the light that shone from him, and still the battle around him waged on. I didn't know what he was doing. I could barely stay afloat, but I watched everything that occurred.
The Dragons weren't doing so well, and my monsters were taking advantage of that. I tried to tell them to stop, but they wouldn't listen and only fight harder.
Suddenly the light from Seto shone even brighter and all it looked like it imploded. So strong was the explosion that the water parted and a deep crater was made from it.
I don't know what happened, even now, but the rain suddenly stopped and the water in the basin started to drain to somewhere. And suddenly I was lying on the ground trying to cough out all the water that I managed to swallow. All of my monsters seemed frozen in the air.
The light disappeared and Seto slowly descended from the sky unconscious, I thought until I saw him being gently placed on the floor and his dragons also falling from the sky, not with the speed that something so large would normally fall, but with a delicacy as if someone where placing them gently around Seto as a final resting place. They made no sounds as they fell, and neither did Seto.
I ran to him as fast as I could but I couldn't even get to him. His dragons created a barrier around him that I could neither climb over or move to pass through.
My monsters were frozen until the last of Seto's dragons was placed around him, and then I felt the familiar tug of energy they take from me when I summon them. All of them disappeared back into the Shadow Realm, but my Red Eyes Black Dragon. He lifted me up gently and carried me over the Blue Eyes White Dragons to Seto.
He. he was dead. So, were his dragons. They did not disappear back to the Shadow Realm. They remained loyal to their master.
~~~~~~~
They all stared at Jou in shock. He was on his knees crying for all he was worth. They felt sorry for making him relive it, but they needed to know.
Seto was dead. It was only beginning to sink in for them.
Three friends lost.
"I didn't. I didn't know what to do. I stayed with him for as long as I could." He cried harder, if it was even possible, "I didn't leave until my Red Eyes Black Dragon lifted me away and carried me here. I don't know how he knew, but he just brought me here. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." Jou didn't look as if he was apologizing to them but rather to Seto.
Yami and the others lifted him up and carried him to his room. They would let him stay and be part of Yami's guard. He had gone through enough to have to deal with some other master. They would have to return to the city and see with their own eyes.
It would be a long time before Jou would get over Seto's death, if he ever did.
~~End High Tide~~~
A/N: I know, I know. you say that that's an ending. well, it all can't be happy endings now can it? I didn't think so. So Seto dies. Ryou dies. And Bakura is trapped in the Millennium Ring. Jou practically feels like wanting to die. Dude, I think I suck! But that's just one alternate universe. there's a million others, right? Hopefully some happy endings somewhere there. Maybe some lemons too. LOL Okay, I need to get back to homework. I only have fifteen minutes before I sleep, damn, it took me a while to write this. Please review!
