A/N: OMG, the situation has gotten dire, and I was so into
writing this that I seemed to have incurred the wrath of my fans, making them
worry for their fellow fav characters. Sorry, can�t
help it, but that�s how the story goes. Bear with it and just enjoy! LOL!

WHISPERS IN THE DARK
�� Ugh�Where am I�?�
�� Joey stirred, massaged his temples
and tried to sit up. The first thing he heard was a couple of sobs and
whimpering here and there in the dim lighting and about more than a dozen
silhouettes in a rather cramped room. While he still tried to shake the
dizziness off his head, he was approached by someone he knew too familiar of
even though he couldn�t really see his face.
�� Dude, where the
fuck are we?�
�� I dunno, Trist,� Joey replied. �I dun ev�n
remember how we got �ere.�
�� Ah, rise and shine, my fellow
friends.�
�� Everyone gasped and whined and cried
as they heard footsteps and the sound of the key clicking. The strangers came
into the room in groups and the lights automatically glowed slightly brighter.
Joey and the five, who were also stirring, realized that they were in a room
that looked like dungeons in a castle and that the owners of the crying,
sobbing and cursing belonged to the rest of their fellow hermaphrodites from
Gammon and Maximillion High, along with a few more
others who looked foreign, possibly from other countries. They were all
stripped of whatever clothes they were wearing and were only adorned with some
sort of dirty bed sheet serving as a sorry excuse for a garment. Everyone was
chained to the floor through a clasp on one of their ankles and they were
surrounded left, right and center with brick walls with only a prison cell door
as their only means to get in or out.
�� Speaking of cell door, they were
even more astonished to see that the person who spoke and held the key was no
other than their Domino High school nurse Illuscia
Nester Himawari a.k.a. Illust-chan!
She was sporting clothes of a female warrior, a huge pair of raven-black wings,
ears pointed like an elf, wild brownish-black hair and skin as white as ivory,
and when she smiled, her fangs stood out like a vampire.
�� I�Illust-chan?!�
the five exclaimed. �What the�? What the hell is going on in
here?!�
�� What does it look like it is?� Illust-chan asked. �You are all my prisoners, and soon will
be the sacrifice for our great lord Zorc Necrophades.�
�� Zorc?!� Ryou exclaimed,
recalling the name he had read so many times in history books and ancient
scrolls. �But�But he was the Lord of all Duelist Phantoms! He�s supposed to be
gone! Maximillion Pegasus and Gozaburo
had already defeated him! He is supposed to be in the Abyss by now!�
�� He is in the Abyss,� Illust-chan confirmed Ryou�s story. �At least his body is. His soul is pretty
much still around these parts, and if we hadn�t found him, he would�ve been a
wandering spirit, never knowing his identity and his purpose in this world
ever! It wasn�t easy gathering you all here, what with us being in hiding and all
that, but at least we had a little help.�
�� So saying, a huge group of people
began to emerge behind her, obviously human, showing their faces under the
light. Judging by the way their fellow teen herms gasped, the revealing people
seemed to be one way or another associated to them, and the five definitely
recognized a few among the group.
�� D�Diesel Kane�!� Malik almost stuttered.
�� Feng
Long!� Joey exclaimed.
�� Demy�?� Yugi
breathed, unable to believe his eyes.
�� Be�Beluga?!� Ryou
and Tristan cried simultaneously.
�� I see you recognized them,� Illust-chan said, grinning from ear to ear and stroking the
said boys� chins affectionately, as would a master to a pet kitten. �Humans are
just so easy to manipulate, aren�t they? I just needed to light a match onto
Diesel�s oil of anger, relive the grudge of losing an arcade battle on Feng Long, ignite the flame of passion and jealousy in
Demetrius� heart and cloud Beluga�s mind with his hidden hatred for Ryou�s success in studies and Tristan�s fame in sports and
they were all too willing to sell their souls to the devil to see your demise.
Same case goes to all the other humans who have harboured
secret inner feelings for the rest of you. Guess it�s true when they say it�s
not good to bottle up your feelings, eh, boys?�
�� Who�What are you?� Tristan
demanded, earning a glare from Illust-chan.
�� What am I? What am I? Who do you think I am, some sort of object you pathetic
humans can assume me as a �what�?� Illust-chan
shrieked at first, but regained composure and continued, �I am a Fallen
Ethereal, one of the many descendants of those who had
gave their heart and soul to love a Bad Seed. Bad Seeds, humph! That�s the
title you have given those who were not afraid to go overboard and try to
venture into the world of the unknown and break free from the traditions of old
lives and of those so-called pure Ethereal Clans of the Outer Beings. I dare
say, I�m proud to be related to a Bad Seed.
�� While you humans go around
fluttering the world in carefree attitudes, we had to take care not to reveal
ourselves and had to succumb to impersonating human roles and human lives in
order not to receive the prejudice and hatred you harbour
discriminately against our people and be sent as an outcast in the Abyss or be
eliminated so easily as ridding a rodent! Do you realize how much pain and
suffering you and your people and your pretty little Outer Being friends have
caused us just by denying us the chance to live normally in this world?! We and
our Bad Seed comrades had no place to go but to lurk behind the shadows being
ashamed of our heritage and living in constant fear that one day our pups would
be denied a chance to live.
�� If it weren�t for the recent
territorial and population dispute in the Ethereal World, we wouldn�t be able
to take advantage of the situation and start up a rebellion. And if it weren�t
for the help of our great Zorc Necrophades,
whose spirit stayed strong even without his body, we wouldn�t have achieved
such greatness in such a short time. I gotta hand it
to you humans, you did great work releasing the Duelist Phantoms from the
Shadow Realm, whether you intended it or not, for we wouldn�t have reached
where we are today.�
�� That�s impossible!� Yugi exclaimed. �There have not been any wars or disputes
or any other type of disturbances in the Ethereal Clan! We�ve been living
peacefully for so many centuries without much of a major disaster going on! How
can there be any disputes going on?�
�� Oh, haven�t your precious little
Whisperer darlings told you? We are experiencing what you would call a war
aftershock. Due to the dwindling of females, there has been a population
imbalance. Not an amount of Ethereal hermaphrodites and herm Halflings are
enough to cover the area and there have been a huge argument between the Ethereal
people about the overpopulation of certain species in the area, and that isn�t
working good,� Illust-chan replied longwindedly, then
gave a mock gasp and said sarcastically, �Oh my god! So that�s why your
precious little Whisperer sweethearts were bound by the centuries-old
tradition! Aww, ain�t that
just the sweetest thing?�
�� If you�re a Fallen Ethereal, then
you should be dead by the Plague!� Tristan exclaimed. �There are no such things
as female Ethereals anymore! You shouldn�t exist!�
�� Sorry to burst your bubble, Golden
Boy but in fact we have quite a lot of Ethereal
females around here,� Illust-chan pouted, pretending
to be offended as she dismissed the dazed-looking boys away. They were
obviously under a spell judging by the way their blank eyes looked, but it
didn�t take a genius to figure that out. �In fact, thanks to our mixed human
blood, we were only cursed to be barren instead of dead. Why do you think we�re
called Fallen Ethereals?�
�� Ya said
we�re gonna be sacrifices fer
yer Lord,� Joey said as he tried to calm down a few
scared shitless teen herms. �Wat exactly ya mean by dat?�
�� Isn�t it obvious? You are going to
remain prisoner here until you all give birth,� Illust-chan
said. �Then after that we are going to line you all up in front of Lord Zorc and feed both your body and soul to him so that he can
achieve full memory and physical form. He was in a rather bad shape when we
found him staggering and floating around aimlessly in Yami
Forest, mindlessly killing people who dared to trespass it without even knowing
why he did it, and he was filled with so much remorse and guilt over the blood
he spilt that he wasn�t the grand ruler he was anymore. We sorted that out by
taking him into our hideout here and nurse him back to health.
�� His memories are bits and pieces
here and there, and we�re helping him to regain them one by one, but to attain
complete 100 percent memory plus physical form requires more than that, and
devouring �mothers� and newborn babies seemed to do the trick. Oh, don�t you worry
your socks off, at least they�re not your fellow teen
herms we�ve captured. Just a couple of older �mothers� who
have gone through the ritual before and currently pregnant with normal
children, is all. No one would miss them�much.�
�� You bitch!� Malik
shouted at her, wanting to get her but was held back by the chain on his ankle.
�So you�re behind my neighbour�s pregnant �wife�s
sudden disappearance!�
�� Oh, come on,� Illust-chan
scolded. �He was the �bitch�, philandering around like he owned every pure man
in the world. The baby in him doesn�t even belong to his husband! Give me a
little credit for disposing a worthless �whore� like him!�
�� You have no right to decide who
lives or dies!� Ryou shouted.
�� Yeah!
You�re not the judge, jury or executioner around here to be deciding whether
someone should live with their sins or die with their regrets��
�� Oh, fuck off, Malik,�
Illust-chan spat, slapping the Egyptian hard on the
face with her superhuman strength. �Put a sock in it. You spawns
of middle men are the worst with your so-called righteousness and stupid views
of justice. I hate, no, despise you the most with a passion.�
�� While the gang tended to Malik and his swollen cheek, Illust-chan
began to morph and change, chuckling as she went. Gone were her wings and back
was her skin in human skin tone, and within minutes, everything Ethereal was
dematerialized and she was the hazel-brown-haired, blood red-eyed school nurse
cum head midwife everyone in Domino was familiar of.
�� Well then, I�m going to be off to
panic along with the other humans and your parents about your disappearance,� Illust-chan spoke in her usual perky way when she was in
human form. �I�ll make sure the sudden disappearance of these lovely pure men
like Demy and Diesel Kane is suspicious enough for people to point fingers to.
Dinner will be in shortly. Don�t wait up. Ta-ta!�
�� With that, she left and the light
automatically went back to its dim state, leaving a stream of wails and angry
protests behind closed doors.
--:--
�� We have traitors in our midst.�
�� All the middle men young and old,
humans and Ethereal, gathered in Mahad�s meeting room
along with Maximillion Pegasus and Lords of every
clan, from elves and fairies and Mountain Dwellers to members of the Night
Clans, discussing about the recent disappearance of the teen herms of the
world. Their disappearance along with pure men associated with them seemed to
raise questions, but after deep, long discussions, and after the attack on
Obsidian and the five in the border vortex, they felt that there were possible
moles at work behind this. Duke Devlin and his colleagues, speaking for the
middle men of the Whisperers, were not excluded in this discussion, as was Marik, who is Maximillion
Pegasus� Royal Executioner and ready to do damages on anyone that crosses the
boundaries of the Ethereal Clan.
�� Traitors, Your Majesty?� a human
middle man from France
asked.
�� That�s right,� Maximillion
Pegasus replied. �We have made a few arrests beforehand and are down to the
last one. Mahad, I believe this is your field, so to
speak.� The advantage of being the Ruler of the Outer Beings was that he had the
power to create a Multi-Tongue atmosphere. All he needed to do was cast a spell
over the room and whatever he spoke in his language would be quickly translated
and reach the ears of different nationalities as their own language, i.e. his
language would be heard as French for a Frenchman and German spoken by a
Germany rep would be heard as Chinese for a Chinaman.
�� Yes, Your Majesty,� Mahad continued what Maximillion
Pegasus wished to relay, �As we all assume, they must have been promised
riches, fame and glory by the Bad Seeds and were clouded with false hopes of
amazing titles and wealth beyond their wildest dreams, accompanied with the
fact that they had personal grudges over those who had possibly wronged them. After
what had happened at the border vortex where my personal assistant Obsidian has
escorted the �mothers� of Domino Island to do an urgent visitation to their
Whisperer mates, so to speak, and after I have issued men to do a search and
rescue on him, I have issued an order for both Obsidian, as soon as he
recovered, and our fellow Ethereal middle men to do an extensive investigation
and capture those who are involved in this treachery. We have gathered them all
in the next room and Obsidian is catching the last one as we speak. He will be
bringing them in soon.�
�� After 5 minutes of tense silence,
Obsidian knocked on the door and came in with a group of tied-up protesting and
struggling people using his staff as a restraint on them. Everyone gasped as
they were no other than their own fellow Ethereal
middle men colleagues, including the one who had been a rather good fellow
Halfling friend to Duke Devlin and had been working side-by-side as a Whisperer
comrade Damien Draco.
�� Brother Damien!� Duke exclaimed in
disbelief. �It can�t be you! There must be some mistake!�
�� Oh, can it, Devlin!� Damien
growled, not bothering to fight for his own defense. �Your righteousness is
useless here! I don�t plan to get away from it anyway!�
�� How�How could you? Brother Damien,
this is not like you��
�� Do not call me �brother�, you
filthy Halfling!� Damien spat at him. �It�s because of you Whisperers that my
human �mother� died because of birth complications when he gave birth to me! I
despise the fact that I�m a Halfling like you and I am only too willing to help
the Bad Seeds out!�
�� You know the Bad Seeds are evil!
You know better than to collaborate with them and betray our clan!�
�� Better than serving those who have
killed my �mother�! When they approached me with the proposal of bringing about
your clan�s downfall I was only too happy to oblige. I spiked your human mates�
scent mark with a little bit of their menstrual blood and their sweat when they
go into human heat so that you would be overly infatuated with your mates and
neglect your posts to be with them so that they can spread their influences
into Sky City little by little. Once you all were issued the Forbidden Blue
mark, it was a matter of time before they went for your pathetic pregnant
mates, and your own people are falling into their trap as we speak. There�s
nothing you can do to save them or your world now!�
�� Tell me!� Duke grabbed Damien�s
collar and shook him. �Tell me where my Soldier is!�
�� Over my dead
body!� Damien grinned, head-butted Duke and lunged at Maximillion Pegasus, which forced Obsidian to blast him
with his staff, killing him instantly. It took a while for everyone to settle
from this commotion and for Maximillion Pegasus to
regain composure, but they soon calmed down as Obsidian took the prisoners
away, locked them up in the other room and rejoined the meeting.
�� Well, now that we�ve more or less
know their motives,� Maximillion Pegasus continued,
�we will have to find out the whereabouts of the human females and hurry up to
bring them back to their respective families. The priority of the �mothers� are
much more important right now as this concerns both the future of human and
Whisperer race. We shall have to excise�extreme measures to extract information
from those traitors about the �mother�s whereabouts.�
�� I would like to suggest,� a human middle man from Turkey spoke, �that protection is
to be issued to the �mother�s respective families. There is no telling whether
those Bad Seeds might target their families as I have heard some of the rare
families that has given birth to two herms in one
household.�
�� I second the motion,� a human
middle man from Thailand
agreed, �They might even try to aim for those young herms regardless if they
have come of age or not. Better safe than sorry.�
�� For those who agree to this motion
please raise your hands,� Mahad said, resulting into
a unanimous vote.
�� Since we�ve agreed to that subject,
I shall issue an order to send in representatives from my clan to each
�mother�s families,� Lord Seth replied. �Remind me to bring this up in the
political meeting, Lord Katz.�
�� Yes, milord,� Lord Katz nodded,
mentally reminding himself of the task.
�� Milord, if I may be so bold as to
offer myself as one of the reps,� Duke raised his hand to speak. �It�s the
least I can do for making up for my colleague�s indecent betrayal to the clan.�
�� No, Brother Duke,� Lord Seth
refused gravely. �You are still under punishment due to you choosing your human
mate over your sacred post, as are your fellow brethren. I will not allow you
to participate in this charade. For all we know, as spoken by your ex-colleague
Brother Damien, your infatuation towards your human counterpart may be no other
than a trick of the mind and emotion due to their tampering with the scent
mark.�
�� My feelings continue to remain the
same! Even if they haven�t tampered the scent mark, I would still be��
�� The order is done. Do you wish to
disobey it and join them?�
�� Duke hesitated for a moment, wanting
to argue his point some more, but decided against it and sighed, sitting down
and saying, �No, milord. Forgive me, milord.�
�� Very well then,� Maximillion Pegasus nodded and looked sideways at Marik, �while we discuss about other urgent matters
regarding the aftershocks, Marik, you know what to
do.�
�� Marik
nodded and excused himself from the meeting. Before he left for the door, Duke
grabbed Marik by the wrist and whispered, �Make them
talk, brother, no matter what it takes.�
�� Do not worry, brother,� Marik replied as his face was showered with murderous
intent, his malice and sadistic aura began to permeate the room, �I am going to
make them squeal like a pig so bad they�d wish they never even exist.�

A/N: Brr! Creepy! Never ever incur the wrath of Marik! For those who are wondering why Maximillion
Pegasus calls the teen herms �females� because of their hermaphroditic nature and
their assumptions that they are pretty much as equal as a real female (go to Chp 16 for more info). Oh me, oh my, things are getting
even more hectic here. What�s gonna happen next? I�m
not gonna tell you! Reviews plz!
