Summary: The Spirit of the Millenium Puzzle goes exploring while his partner's mind sleeps. He finds a new game to play.


Kaiba’s mansion was quiet. Too quiet, the Spirit of the Sennen Puzzle had firmly decided. It was three in the morning, late enough for even the most wild of sleepovers run by Mokuba and Yugi Mutou to have ended in sleep. While his partner’s mind rested, the Other Yugi had taken to wandering the dark hallways, exploring a space that was more familiar to him in its scope than the Kame Game Shop was. Not that it could really technically be compared to the palace either. However, the spirit couldn’t help but wonder what made up the homes of the powerful men in this modern era. Kaiba Seto was certainly one of those. Of course, the spirit would never admit to Yugi that part of the reason he had decided to take over their shared body and wander was to perhaps find the elusive CEO. Kaiba had come home and disappeared upstairs without a word, nor had there been a sound from the second floor of the mansion all night. The spirit couldn’t help but indulge his curiosity.

It was a few minutes before he came upon a closed wooden door with light showing under the crack. A faint smile and slow turn of the doorknob, and he was inside. The light was coming from a small desk lamp and a computer screen, the rest of the lamps in the room turned off. There was a faint light coming from the computer screen in the corner that drew the eye, leaving the figure that slumped next to it in shadow. The Other Yugi couldn’t help but smirk slightly. In his opinion, it rather suited Kaiba Seto to slump in darkness on his desk…even if his brother might have been disappointed to see him so.

The brunet stiffed as the Other Yugi stepped closer to get a better look, bleary blue eyes looking up to meet the other man’s violet ones before they widened and Kaiba found himself jerking back his chair. “What are you doing in here?” he asked icily.

“Simply walking off some sleeplessness. Your brother and the others are sleeping downstairs; I didn’t want to wake them,” The shorter Duelist replied, looking Kaiba over critically. “You should be sleeping too. Do you so this often, Kaiba? No wonder your brother worries about you.”

“I don’t recall asking you for your opinion on my sleep habits,” The CEO replied, no hint of drowsiness in his voice. The Other Yugi respected that, in a way. It was the way a leader had to be, something he was quite familiar with. He didn’t, however, understand the boy’s choice to push himself so hard.

“It’s important,” Yugi replied with a shrug. “It’s very late. Perhaps I want to duel you in the morning, since we’re here together? If you are not rested, you’re not going to be worth my time.”

That drew Kaiba’s attention. “We can duel now then. I have work to finish later tonight,” Kaiba replied in warning.

Yugi shook his head. “I will not risk waking your brother or the others. I wouldn’t have woken you either, had I known you would behave so. I suppose sleeping on your desk is still sleeping.”

The blue eyes that had always fascinated the Spirit of the Puzzle while they dueled narrowed. “I wasn’t sleeping, and I have no time to bother with you if you have nothing of note to say. Get out,” Kaiba growled in warning.

“Why? If all you are doing is working, and I stay here, I am doing nothing to affect you at all.”

“You have no reason to be here. Get out.”

“Go rest, Kaiba Seto. Your work will be here when you get back,” Yugi prompted again, noting the tension in those long fingers he was so familiar with. If it was bad enough to be visible in this distance and this light, Kaiba was quite tense indeed.

“I said, get out!”

“I think not.”

“Then will you at least shut up and sit in a corner where I cannot see you! Yugi! If you will not duel me, you presence is nothing to me,” Kaiba snapped, his hand coming down hard on his desk. The Spirit’s eyes just narrowed in return. How absolutely predictable. Yet…what an interesting situation.

“Make me,” he replied, the look in his eyes echoing the challenge in his words. Kaiba looked stunned for a minute before he rose to his full height. There was anger in his eyes, something that just made the Spirit surer in his decision.

Kaiba’s eyes seemed to flash, and he stepped closer, violence promised in every move. “Do not tempt me,” he growled. “I lost any interest in you five min-Mmph!”

Yugi’s eyes were uncharacteristically dark when he grabbed hold of a very fine blue necktie and pulled down, kissing the brunet. Kaiba was completely frozen in place, barely able to breathe. He stayed that way, even when the shorter man pulled away with a slight smile. “Kaiba…you couldn’t do it,” the Other Yugi (and Kaiba knew it was him now, the Yugi he knew outside of the dueling arena would never do such a thing) said smugly. Kaiba just stared at him. “There’s no point in threatening someone if you never controlled the situation at all,” he added teasingly.

Kaiba could only blink before the Other Yugi pressed his lips to his again. “Kaiba. Mokuba’s not the only one concerned about you. And I meant what I said. Go to bed. I want to see you in the morning,” he said softly. A final brush of his hand against the taller man’s jaw, and he was gone, just as quickly as he had come in.

Kaiba was left waiting, still trying to figure out just at what point he had lost the game in the first place.
