Chapter 4: Eclipse
While the events unfolded in Domino there are certain things that happen in another domain known as the Underworld. It's pretty much the place that houses the Shadow Realm. In this area of purplish black hues is where souls are kept and devoured by demons along with the shadows themselves. Various monstrosities dwell here. One of them in particular would be the ruler of this land known as Zorc who lives within the castle located deep in the center. With the buildings here comprised of onyx stone it casts an ominous aura upon any who dare to tread the waters here. One person in particular had been exiled here due to being kicked out of the afterlife. This person would be known as the Thief King himself. Sighing, he had thought that it would've lasted longer until he had been given the verdict. Dressed in his usual attire of his crimson cloak with a pair of gray tights and leather boots underneath he didn't feel perturbed with being here again. Yes, it's not his first time being here. Long ago he had come here for a purpose. Glancing around, his gray orbs flickered with a variety of emotions that are seen behind the iron walls he keeps built up. Rarely does he ever let them down similarly to his half-brother Bakura. Frowning upon thinking of him, Akefia hoped that he's ok and staying out of trouble. Casting aside his worries for now, the fallen began to make his way towards the castle showing its spires in the distance.
It took a while until he reached the outer gates. Once there, Akefia made sure he felt ready before going inside. Being accompanied by Diabound did ease his apprehension a decent amount. Going inside of the throne room, he's met face to face with his counterpart. Approaching until he's standing in front of him, Akefia swallowed hard at seeing the hungry look being thrown his way.
The demon king himself donned in his black robes along with his raven hair falling down to his shoulders with horns atop his head, staring at his mate with his twin ruby coals, "It's pleasing to see you finally arrived. You'll be coming with me to see the coven. It'll be priceless seeing Bakura's expression when he's reunited with you."
"i see," the fallen one mused, taking this in though he knew that being sentenced to here won't be as bad as he previously thought. "When do we leave?"
"In an hour or so," replied Zorc, reaching up to cup one of Akefia's cheeks within his hand, rubbing against the flesh with his slender fingers, pleased to see those pleasant chills running down his spine. "But until then we'll become reacquainted with one another, my pet."
"Sounds perfect to me, Master. Remind me what I've missed. Trust me, I thought I would hate being sent here, but no it's far from that by a long shot. So, enough talk....let's get down to it then..."

Meanwhile, back with the individuals in the crypt down below, are waiting for when the Head would arrive. Checking the time it shouldn't be that long from now. Patience running thin, Bakura began to pace back and forth. Yami watched him out of boredom, thinking about Yugi in the back of his mind. Indeed he and Bakura yearned to return to their other halves. Being away from them does feel as if being apart from what makes them complete. Malik just found it amusing how his two best friends acted when waiting for the meeting to commence. At least he instead of the others don't have to be away from their other half. Having already turned Marik makes things all the more easier.
When it's finally the moment after an approximate amount of time has passed to where the arrival would happen each of them are anticipating the Head to come. Within mere moments, the portal opened to have him step out arm in arm with someone that made Bakura gasp in astonishment.
"What the hell? I thought you were dead," barked the silverette, having no other words to describe how he felt about this.
"I was, little brother. I went to the afterlife, but enough times trying to reach the surface to check on you had me kicked out. Though there were other reasons too besides trying to see you," answered Akefia, hoping this quick explanation would be enough to satiate his curiosity for now. "As you can see well enough I am now one of the fallen race bound to my Master at last within his domain."
"Mmm and your Master is very pleased to have you back for good this time," purred Zorc, going to his appointed spot, having Akefia sit firmly in his lap, giving him no other choice of where to sit, wanting him to remain close by.
"We'll have a proper reunion later," murmured Akefia as a promise to his sibling who merely nodded in agreement, going to his place while the others rose from their coffins to join for the anointed meeting to take place.
Noticing that things are taking its course, Yami perked up to pay attention to what's going on. Yet, he can't help day dreaming a bit about his Aibou. Can anyone blame him? Being apart from their other half for such a long time would make anyone feel that particular way. Paying idle attention to what's discussed they're given their missions, duties, etc. that have to be fully carried out. Failure isn't an option. If there's any then severe punishment is delivered by Zorc's hands alone. Though now that he has his mate back means that Akefia has the privilege to be the co-op for the dungeons.
"Now, you are all dismissed. Each of you know your duties. Do not fail me or you know what happens," hissed Zorc, watching everyone except Bakura leave the crypt to head back up to the surface, knowing it'll be several hours yet until dawn.
"Am I dismissed as well?" Asked Akefia hopefully, wanting to go see about having some quality time with his brother.
"Yes, you are for now. I'll be waiting for you back home," replied his partner, giving a quick deep kiss to him that's returned in full before he vanished into the darkness in order to return back to the castle.
Nodding, Akefia's cheeks had heated up to coat them in a light shade of scarlet. Recomposing himself, the dark angel headed over to the vampire. Wrapping his arms around him, Akefia gave him a firm hug. It felt so long from last that they had seen one another. Yes, even when he was a guardian angel it had been hard to get in time to see him. Now, there's all the time in the world and more to be a part of his brother's life again. It filled him with an immense happiness. A few tears spilled down Bakura's cheeks, showing a rare sign of emotion that managed to break through his guarded walls.
"I'm glad you're here to stay. You're not going to leave again, right?" Asked Bakura, his voice full of raw emotion while searching his older sibling's face as if looking for something in particular.
Softening at hearing this question, Akefia patted his shoulder after releasing him to then reassure him, "I'm here to stay, 'Kura. Nothing is going to take me away from you now. Well, unless Master needs me, but you know that's to be expected."
"Damn right. Good, I can live with that," agreed the silverette, shedding a faint ghost of a smile.
"So, you found someone, eh?" Nudged Akefia to his brother's side in a teasing manner. "Tell me all about him."
"Uh, sure," now it's Bakura's turn to blush, figuring this would happen eventually when they'd be able to talk again. "He's an innocent and sweet male. Apparently he's a slayer, but it's to ensure he can fend off any of the others that try to attack him. You know that anyone will try to fuck with us meaning they'll go as low as going after our mates."
"Unfortunately that's par for the course," sighed Akefia, not pleased about that fact though it's just how it is.
"But I don't want anyone to take or harm what's mine," stated Bakura firmly.
Reaching over, Akefia patted his younger sibling's shoulder in a comforting manner, "Good, you'll do well to protect your beloved. I have faith in you."
"Thanks," he appreciated the reassurance, knowing he's probably right. "You'll do well by the Master's side."
"That's the plan," winked Akefia, giving him one last hug before unveiling his tattered obsidian wings to wrap around him like a cocoon before vanishing in a blink of an eye.
"We'll see each other again soon," muttered Bakura to himself as he had watched him depart, turning on his heel to exit the crypt as well, excited to return to Ryou's apartment after he's hunted to satiate the burning thirst growing in his throat.
During his time hunting there are a few things on his mind. Aside from his brother there's the bothersome thought that their enemies would go after their mates. It makes him swear to himself if anything bad happens to the creampuff then it'll be his fault for being unable to protect him well enough. Also if anyone does kidnap Ryou then there would be hell to pay. Hopefully that type of thing won't happen anytime soon. When he's finished up, Bakura began heading over to where his Yadonushi's apartment is located. Heading on inside he sees that Ryou seemed to be waiting for him. Getting up, the whitette wrapped his arms securely around him. Blinking in surprise, it takes him a few moments before Bakura returns the sentiment. Enveloping him in his cold embrace feels as if a spark makes his undead heart beat again for a mere moment before returning back to its usual state. There's nothing that would tear him away from this precise moment nor any other spent with his other half.
"'Kura, could you promise me something please?" Asked the chocolate eyed male, looking up at him hopefully.
Looking back down at him, Bakura raised a brow, wondering what this could possibly be about, "Of course, kitten. Go ahead."
"You won't abandon me," replied Ryou, seeing the loneliness and hurt caused from his father over all of the years of his life since his mother and sister perished in the accident.
"Indeed I can most certainly promise you that, my dove. Oddly enough you make me feel almost like I'm human again. You cause feelings that I thought I buried away long ago resurface to where I don't even know what to think. But what I know for certain is I'll always protect you no matter what even when hell freezes over."
A/N: Yays! Done with chappie four! Hehes, this was kind of a sappy chappie with some angst involved. Though I felt it necessary to involve it in to show what goes on for the other ships. Hopefully y'all enjoyed what happened this time. This is definitely turning into one of my favorites to work on. Besides, it feels great to have regained my mojo to write YGO again.
Anyways, enough of me blathering on. The next chappie will be out later on in the week whenever I have it. Finished being written up. Until then please remember to review darlings!
