Uh...is thing long enough to count as a chapter? Oh well--if it isn't, too bad. :)


Epilogue
Just a Little Fun

Yami strode confidently down the street, a Siamese cat padding along at his heels. Anyone and everyone who had seen him just yesterday stared—he looked completely different.

He looked normal.

Yami grinned to himself at the people's amazement. They must think he was on a major mood swing.

The cat trotting by his side purred. /Where are we going?

/To pay an old friend a little visit. You'll see.

/Will it be any fun?

/I hope so. Oh—here we are.

He entered the KaibaCorp building, telling the secretary that Kaiba was expecting him, so she didn't need to send up a call. She looked suspiciously at him, but, deciding he was harmless, let him through without comment.

Once at the elevator, he hit the button for the top floor. /Let's see how much he really expects, mm?

/Mm-hmm.

The two of them stepped out of the elevator. Yami led Yugi down to the end of the hall, and knocked politely.

"It's open," Kaiba's preoccupied voice called.

Yami raised an eyebrow at Yugi, who mewled. He pushed open the door. "Hello, hope I'm not interrupting. Well, actually, yes I do."

Kaiba jumped, and looked at Yami. His eyes widened momentarily—and then a smirk crossed his face. "I see you've finally decided to take my advice and stop dwelling on the past…"

Yami smirked as well. "Not quite. Isn't that right, Yugi?"

Yugi let out a loud meow, jumping up onto the counter in front of Kaiba's startled face.

Kaiba stared at him, and then looked back up at Yami. "Mutou…this is a cat."

"How observant," Yami remarked dryly, "and how wrong. You're no cat, are you, Yugi?"

Yugi meowed again, waving his long white tail.

Kaiba shook his head. "You've gone off the deep end."

If a cat could grin, Yugi would definitely be grinning right now. He sat on his haunches—and transformed back into 'human', sitting cross-legged on the desk. "No he's not."

Kaiba jumped to his feet, startled, and backed away, eyes wide. "Now I'm going off the deep end!"

"Welcome to the club," Yami said blandly. Yugi rocked back and forth with silent laughter.

Kaiba shook his head. "Impossible!"

Yami rolled his eyes. "Is that all you know how to say?" he asked, slightly irritated.

The door to the office slammed open. "Seto! Hey Seto! Guess who I saw earlier! I—Yami?"

Yami looked over his shoulder, and his face broke out into a grin. "Hey, kid."

Mokuba stared at him. "You—you're—"

"Feeling a lot better," Yami finished. He tapped the still-oblivious Yugi on the shoulder. "Look who's here."

Yugi looked around, and smiled brightly. "Hi, Mokuba! Long time no see!"

Mokuba stared at Yugi. He rubbed his eyes. "Is that you, Yugi?"

Yugi grinned. "It's me! I'm back—for good!"

Mokuba's face lifted in a smile. "So that means—"

Yami grinned. "No more sulking in corners for me. I'm back—so everyone better watch out!" While saying this, he cast a sideways glance at Kaiba—and was completely surprised at what he saw. It was an immense effort to keep himself from reacting.

Kaiba was smiling—grinning. There was relief in that smile—as if he'd been waiting for this to happen, and had been worried it wouldn't happen at all. But no…he couldn't have known. There was no way.

Then again, he thought wryly, looking from the beaming Mokuba to the laughing Yugi to the grinning Kaiba and back, after what I've seen, I believe anything can happen.
