Chapter 25
Yugi’s eyes closed completely and his head turned and lay limp at the side. Atemu paled and grabbed his wrist and grabbed a knife and slit it deeply. Atemu laid his wrist in Yugi’s mouth and soon after felt the fangs dig in and Atemu wince. Marik who was watching, with Malik, found it strange.
“Marik do you think you could get a cattle in here and on the ground?”
“Yep. You want to feed it to him.”
“Yes. If I feed him too much longer he’ll kill me.”
“Alright. Give me a minute.”
Marik ran out and to the pen. Atemu winced as Yugi bit in harder and he waited patiently for Marik to return. He waited a little longer before pulling his arm from Yugi’s mouth. He looked to his injury to find that it wasn’t healing. He watched as Marik led a cattle in and tied rope around its back legs and pulled them together tightly and then did the same to the front rendering it helpless and on the ground. Atemu stood up and lifted Yugi up and led him over to the neck of the animal and cut it slightly and placed Yugi head down on the cut. Yugi’s fangs sank in and he started drinking.
Bakura walked in and saw what was going on and was confused. “Marik why is there a cow in my cave?”
“Yugi was dying. He needed the blood. He would kill Atemu if he kept drinking from him.”
Bakura snorted and sat down next to Ryou who was still out and was still sweating badly. He ran his hand through his hair and sighed.
“Atemu what happened to him?”
“I don’t know. Weapons don’t normally hurt him so I don’t know why this knife did. Can you guys watch him I want to go get something?”
Malik nodded and sat down next to Yugi who was still drinking but not conscious. Marik watched as the cows eyes closed he knew it wouldn’t last much longer. After a minute longer Yugi’s body completely slumped against the dead animal. Malik sighed and pulled him back into his lap, wincing as Yugi body slumped against his bruises. Marik stood and grabbed the cow’s hind feet and started to drag it out, not getting far. Bakura sighed and stood up.
“This is the last time I get up today.”
Marik chuckled and Bakura grabbed its front feet and they both dragged it out of the cave. Bakura dragged it off to the side with Marik before just dropping it.
“Oi this thing better be gone next time I come out. I don’t want a rotting animal outside my cave.” Bakura growled to the thieves.
They walked back in and sat down again. Ryou was still out, Malik was holding Yugi who was also still out. Malik removed Yugi’s tunic and wiped away the blood. He noticed the bleeding had stopped but it was still open and not healing. Malik sighed and cradled his friend and prince in his arms.
“Come on Yugi wake up.” He whispered.
“Malik?”
Malik looked over to see Atemu back in and he was holding a knife in his hand. Malik watched as Atemu sat down next to him before gently passing Yugi over. Atemu had put the knife down on the ground in front of him. Atemu sighed and moved Yugi’s bangs out of his face.
“Malik what do you make of that?”
Malik looked down at the knife and picked it up. He looked at it. Its handle was gold and the blade itself was silver. But carved into both was the symbol of Tyet. Malik knew this from when he was living in Egypt.
“It’s the symbol of Tyet.”
“Yes, have you seen it in Japan while you were there?”
“No.”
“Ok. It’s safe to say that Yugi was bitten by an Egyptian vampire. It’s obvious that it’s his weakness.”
Malik nodded and stood up and moved around to where he’d been laying earlier. He thought it would be best to allow Atemu so time with Yugi alone even though they were all there. Malik looked over at Ryou. He was still shivering and was still sweating. Bakura was cradling Ryou in his arms, his face buried in Ryou’s hair.
It was a few minutes before they heard a moan. Bakura head shot up and he looked down at Ryou. His face was scrunched up and eyes slowly opening. Bakura smiled and held Ryou closer. Ryou looked out through half opened eyes and found himself looking to a dark tanned muscular chest. Ryou looked up and saw Bakura.
“Marik could you grab the food and water please?” Bakura grumbled to hide voice that was going to break.
“Sure.”
Marik came back over with figs and water. Bakura held the leather skin water container to Ryou’s mouth who opened and drank what Bakura gave him. He realised when he tried to grab the container he couldn’t move his arms. When Bakura finished with the water it gave him time to look as to why. He found he was wrapped in many blankets and couldn’t move. Ryou felt something at his mouth and saw that there was some fig there and opened up before closing and eating the fruit.
Ryou ate a few more pieces before falling asleep without warning. Bakura sighed and finished off the fruit that Ryou hadn’t eaten. He cradled Ryou to him and looked to everyone else.
“Atemu and Malik you can help yourselves to the food here.”
“Thankyou Bakura.”
Bakura ignored them and was back to Ryou. He sighed and stood up and walked over to his bed and placed Ryou down before lying down with him.
Marik looked at Malik who was lying down on the ground by the fire. He moved over to him and Malik looked at him suspiciously. Marik placed his hand on Malik’s chest.
“Hey what are you doing?” Malik said as he backed away while Marik just sat there.
“Checking for any breaks in your rib cage. You were beaten quite badly. I would have check when you were asleep but if you woke you would have thought I was molesting you.”
Malik hesitated before stopping, sighed and nodded. Marik crawled over and sat on his knees next to him. He reached out again and placed his hands on each side of his chest and pressed down at the top and ran his hand along each side feeling for breaks or fractures. Malik fisted his hands tightly each time he went over one of his bruises. When Marik finished Malik sighed in relief from the pain and his hand slowly un-fisted. He looked at them and saw that there were nail imprints in his palm.
Marik stood up and walked over to Bakura and knelt down next to. “Hey Bakura I’m going to go and get some sleep. I’ll see you later if that’s alright with you?”
“Yeah sure Marik. Feel free. You need the rest.”
“So do you.”
Marik kissed Bakura’s and Ryou’s forehead softly before heading out of the cave. Malik frowned and followed after him. Wincing at the pain. He grabbed his robe on the way out and put it on as he left.
Atemu and Bakura watched as Malik left after Marik and wore smirks when they looked at each other.
~~Ω∞Ω~~
Malik followed after Marik and it was hard as the thieves where either barging past or stopping in front of him. He was close to putting his hand on Marik’s shoulder before someone wrapped a hand around his mouth and then another around his arms and chest. He was dragged back between two huts. Malik struggled against the man till he was thrown to the ground.
He looked up at the man and saw he had red hair and that was all he saw till he got another beating. Malik curled up to hid his chest from the beating. He would normally be able to take on this man but with the injuries he had been given the day before he didn’t have a chance.
It went for a while till it stopped and the man fled off into the village. Malik groaned and struggled to his feet. He felt so sore now and it was enough to make him want to curl up on the ground and sleep there. Malik walked out between the two huts and found a young woman.
“Where is Marik’s hut?”
“You ok. I should get you to our healer.”
“No, just show me where Marik is.”
“Alright come here.”
The woman took Malik’s arm and put it over her shoulder and walked him over to Marik’s hut. Malik took his arms off her.
“Thankyou. I’ve got it from here.”
“Alright if you are sure.”
“Yeah.”
She nodded and left. Malik turned back to the hut and walked over to the door and knocked on the wood next to it. He heard someone curse and then the curtain that acted as a door moved away to reveal a half asleep Marik. Marik’s eyes widened from extremely narrow to the size of Ryou’s at the state of Malik as he covered his mouth and started coughing.
“Malik what happened?”
“I was attacked.”
Marik grabbed his arm gently as Malik started to sway. He guided him in and sat him down on the bedding and pushed the robe off Malik’s shoulders. He saw more bruises starting to form on his skin. Marik grabbed a bowl of water and cloth and dipped it in and started to clean up his face. Malik wincing as he did and Marik apologising.
Once done Marik sat down next to him and Malik shuffled a little closer.
“Why’d you leave the cave?”
“I...I wanted to talk with you so I followed. Once I was close enough to touch your shoulder someone grabbed me and dragged me between two huts and started to beat me. All I saw was the colour of his hair it was red. That was it.”
Marik nodded. “Well let’s get some sleep. No one dares come in here apart from Ryou or Bakura. I’ll find out who did it tomorrow.”
Malik nodded but didn’t move. Marik chuckled and moved to one side of the bed and then gently took Malik’s hand and tugged on it. Malik looked at him before lying down carefully. Marik smiled and Malik smiled back and curled up close to him.
“Marik, I like you but the whole molesting thing I don’t like cause I don’t know you that well.”
“I would like to get to know you Malik-pretty.”
“’Malik-pretty’ what’s with that?”
“I like it.”
Malik smiled slightly and kissed his cheek, blushing as he did and then laid his head down and fell to sleep. Marik smiled and pulled him closer gently before falling asleep himself.
~~Ω∞Ω~~
Atemu turned to Yugi who mumbled something. A minute later Yugi’s eyes opened and he gasped and clutched his chest in pain. Atemu held him to him. Yugi looked up at him and smiled and looked down at his chest. He saw a deep stab wound from where the knife got him. Yugi spat on his hand and then wiped his hand over it. Atemu looked down to see it heal completely and sighed. Yugi smiled and kissed him gently. Atemu pushed back and slipped his tongue past Yugi’s parted lips. Yugi moaned and wrapped his arms around him and pulled him closer.
“Do you mind?” Bakura grumbled out.
“Sorry.” Atemu said and Yugi giggled and looked over to Ryou.
“He still not awake?”
“He woke a little while ago had some food and water before passing out again.”
“I think I can help.”
Yugi stood up and stumbled over to Bakura and Ryou. He fell to the ground and Bakura quickly steady him. Yugi smiled his thanks and looked back down at Ryou.
“Your help... what exactly do you mean by that?” Bakura asked still unsure of Yugi.
“If you think turning him you’re wrong I could never do that to anyone even an enemy. I’m going to heal his obvious sickness. Just hold him still for me.” Bakura nodded.
“Yugi you sure that’s such a good idea. You just woke up. You should wait till you are feeling better.”
“I’ll be fine Atemu. Maybe just a little tired. It’s my fault I should have broken out and gone after him.”
“You’re telling me you could have gotten out of those bindings anytime you wanted.”
“Yeah but Ryou told me not to.”
Bakura looked at Yugi startled before looking back down at Ryou. Yugi looked down at him and placed his hands over his chest. He may not have been taught by a vampire but as he slept he learned things that he could do. One of them was heal small sickness, which was what Ryou had, if he had a high enough blood content. A blue light came from Yugi’s hands as his eyes closed and it took no more than 4 seconds before it finished and Yugi slumped to the ground breathing heavily.
Atemu got up and ran over while Bakura looked down at him before turning to Ryou who moaned and opened his eyes. Bakura smiled at him and hugged him tightly. Yugi looked up at them and smiled, leaning against Atemu. Atemu stood and pulled Yugi up with him and sat down were he slept the night before.
“You shouldn’t have done that.” Atemu scold him.
“I know but I owe it to him.”
Atemu sighed. “At lease you’re fine.”
“Yeah just tired.”
“I wouldn’t be surprised.”
Yugi smiled and kissed him on the lips lightly and curled up in his lap falling asleep. Atemu smiled and felt something hit his head. He looked up startled and pulled off a large piece of material. He saw Bakura smirking at him.
“Thanks.”
“Yeah.”
Atemu laid it out over Yugi and himself and soon fell asleep himself.
Bakura looked down at Ryou and smiled softly. He saw Ryou struggling and squirming around trying to get out of the blankets that held him. Bakura smiled at him and Ryou made a small whining sound.
“Alright I’ll let you out, but you should know you look cute like that.” Bakura sat him up and started to remove the blankets from him and sat back. “Ryou I’m sorry.” Bakura whispered and brushed his hand across the bruise on his face. “I should have listened to you first. I’m so, so sorry.”
“I know. Did you find me?”
“Yes. I’m so sorry.”
“I’m glad you did. I love you Bakura. I wouldn’t have agreed to letting Atemu come if I thought he wouldn’t keep to his promise.”
“I love you to. I’ll listen to you from now on ok?”
“Thankyou.” Ryou leaned up and kissed him softly and wince at the pain in his chest. “I think I’ll be in bed for a while. Where’s Malik?”
“He followed after Marik no too long ago. I spoke with Malik this morning. He does like Marik and just may love him. But it will take a while for Malik to trust him I think.”
“Yeah it will. Malik isn’t one to trust people easily. Though he trusted Yugi, myself and Atemu easily, he seems to trust you and Marik a bit as well, seeing you’re thieves.”
“Hey you’re a thief as well don’t forget but I guess he does a bit. But let’s not worry about them for now. You need to sleep.”
Ryou nodded and wrapped his arms around Bakura’s chest and laid his head on his shoulder. Bakura smiled and ran his hands through Ryou’s hair before he fell asleep and Bakura close behind.
