Magical Pet Shop Chapter 1 -
It was a Saturday morning and Yugi was outside, having nothing to do so he decided to take a walk. As he was walking, he thought he heard a voice calling to him. He looked around and shrugged it off. 'Yugi...' the voice called once more and he started to wonder who could be calling him. 'Come to us Yugi..' the voice continued to call and as if he was in a trance, he followed where he suspected the voice to be coming from. As it became louder, he knew he was getting close until the voice finally stopped and he snapped out of it. 'Who was that?' he wondered as he looked up to the shop that he stopped in front of and found himself to be at Count D's Petshop. 'Hmm, well, this sounds interesting.' he thought and walked inside.
The chime of the bells caught Count D's attention and he walked out from the room he was in to greet the new customer. "Hello and welcome to my pet shop. I am Count D. How may I help you?" he asked as he looked to him. "Oh, I don't need any help really, I just came to look around since I really didn't have anything to do today." Yugi said. "Ah. Well, would you like me to give you a tour around the pet shop then?" he asked and Yugi nodded.
Soon, they were off to explore the mystical pet shop. "This is a pet shop of many different animals, even those that are exotic and rare. And even some that you have never seen before which are very rare and may be the only one of their kind." D explained and Yugi nodded, amazed at the exotic animals that he saw, even those that he thought didn't exist anymore. "How was you able to get such pets if you don't mind me asking?" he asked, looking to him. "Now that's a secret that I can't tell." D said.
As they continued to walk through the seemingly endless hallways, Yugi heard the voice once more and stopped beside a door, looking to it. D stopped when he didn't hear Yugi following him and walked back over to him. "Yugi, is something wrong?" he asked. "Oh no. I just keep hearing voices for some reason and it seems to be coming from this door." Yugi said, pointing to the door he was standing in front of.
"Oh dear, this does seem to be a problem." he said. Yugi looked up to him, worry shining in his eyes. "Why?" he questioned. "Because, in this very room, is two deadly beasts that cannot be controlled by anyone. It's a miracle just how they were able to be brought here. I have kept them locked up in this room for safety reasons and for the same reason that you have told me, I have had many customers come in here and stopping at this very door, saying they heard voices calling for them to come in to this very room and I let them in but when I leave, even for a minute, the horrifying screams of the person that goes in shatters the peace of my shop and I hoped that nothing happen but when I open the door, I come to a massacre. Blood everywhere and bones laying on the ground." He then looks down quietly.
"And when I finally turn my gaze to them, they are covered in blood and still chewing upon the flesh of their prey. Their eyes show no remose for the fallen. After the many times that it has happened, I have kept this room sealed but they seemed to still have the power to call people to their doom. I don't know why they continued to do this but I have a feeling they are trying to call someone that they want to be with, for a person that is willing to tend to their every need without protest but how am I to find a person to their liking? The only thing I can do is to keep the people who come because of their calling away from this door." D said as he held onto Yugi's shoulder and led him away.
Yugi followed for a while until the voices started to call his name once more. 'Don't leave Yugi...You can't leave without us...' the voice continued to call for him until he couldn't handle it anymore. "Count D, they continue to call for me, what should I do?" he asked. "Just ignore it until you're ready to leave. If you wish, you can take in one of the pets here and I think I have the perfect one for you." D said and he nodded as he followed, doing his best to ignore the voices calling to him.
They came upon another door and Count D opened it. The girl that sat in a room on a big lavender pillow she looked up before giving a wave to him. She wore an outfit that was similar to a Arabian princess outfit the trim of her outfit is light purple and the rest of the color was dark purple and she was adorned in many pieces of jewelry. "Hello Count D, what brings you in here?" the girl asked. "Myrrh, I wish for you to meet someone." he said as he led Yugi inside. "And who is this cutie?" she asked, making him blush lightly, unaware of the growl that came from one of the beasts in the locked room. "I'm Yugi, who are you?" he asked. "I'm Myrrh and I'm a genie. As they always say, your wish is my command." she said with a small grin.
D smiled softly. "I knew you two would get along well. Why don't you get to know each other a little more while I'll get the contract that you need to sign." D said as he left out the room.
In the locked room, one of the beasts growled. "Count D, why do you deny us the boy? After the many years of calling people, we have finally found the one but you dare come in between us finding our lifelong mate." the first snarled. The other looked to him. "Don't worry Yami. Just keep calling to him. D can't keep him away for long since he can't handle being away. Soon enough, he will open the door himself if D doesn't let him come." the other spoke.
He only snorted and continued to call for him. 'I will not give up, this place will be raised to the ground if you do not let him take us in as well Count D.' Yami thought.
As they talked, Yugi did his best to ignore the calling but it was becoming to much and in a daze like he was before, he got up and left out the room. "Yugi? Yugi, what's wrong? Where are you going?" Myrrh asked but he didn't say nothing. She followed, worried for her new master. When she saw where he was heading, she tried to hold him back but he continued walking. "Yugi, you need to stop! They're trying to lead you to your death!" Myrrh shouted but he didn't hear. He stopped in front of their door and, as if it were magic, a key appeared in his hands and he unlocked the door.
"No! Yugi! Don't open the door!" Myrrh shouted once more as she tried to stop him but it was too late as he walked inside. 'I should get Count D but if I leave, they may kill him!' Myrrh thought frantically as she looked between the door and the hall that led to where Count D was currently. 'I can't let Yugi die. It's up to me.' she thought once more as she ran inside, hoping she wasn't too late.
When he was finally inside the room, he snapped out of his daze and looked around. 'Wait, wasn't I just in Myrrh's room?' he thought before looking around. "You finally came." Yami spoke as he walked over to him. Yugi looked up and gasped, seeing the demon that was quite larger than him. "Now, now. No need to be afraid. Unlike the others that has came in here before you, you are not one we are willing to take the life of. You are the one we have been waiting for." he said once more as he lowered his head and licked him.
He shivered lightly from the lick as looked to him. "But why me out of all people?" he asked. "Because, there's something about you that has called out to us and I knew that you are the one. There is no doubt about it." Yami said as he gave him another lick and the nudge him, showing that he wanted to be petted. Yugi raised his hand slowly before placing it on his head and stroked his head lightly, causing him to purr deeply.
Myrrh finally reached them and stopped in awe, seeing that Yugi wasn't being hurt in any way. 'Can it be? Yami and Aqua finally found the owner they wanted to be with?' she thought.
D headed back to the room with the contract and seeing that no one was there, he feared the worse and headed towards Yami and Aqua's room. Seeing the door ajar, he started to worry more and ran inside. But like Myrrh, he was in awe to see that Yami nor Aqua had killed Yugi, instead, they were playing with him. Yugi looked up and smiled softly. "Hi Count D. Sorry about worrying you, I just couldn't help it but they were calling for me and I couldn't ignore it any longer." Yugi said. "Well, it's ok now. I was fearing the worse but seeing them playing around with you instead of feasting on your flesh, I guess I can only say they chosen you as their new owner." D said.
"Really?" he questioned, looking up to them. Seeing them nod, he looked back to Count D. "So what should I do? I know I can't leave them here or else all they would do is call me back but I don't know if I could handle three pets." Yugi said. "I think you can Yugi. They trust you just about as much as they trust every other person they called here. And like you said, if you leave, they will just call you back. That's how Dark demons are. They continue to call until their prey comes to them but of course in this situation, it was to call for you to become their new owner." Myrrh said.
Yami and Aqua looked up to see Count D and Myrrh. Both knew about Myrrh but never seen her before because of them being locked up. Myrrh walked over to her new master. "So, what do you say Yugi?" she asked. He looked to her and then to Yami and Aqua before nodding. "I guess as long as they're not too much trouble, I can handle it." Yugi said and she smiled along with Yami and Aqua. "Ok then. How about we leave out of here and I'll get the contract for Yami and Aqua so you can sign them." Count D said and he nodded as they all filed out of the room.
"Here they are. All you need to do is sign them and follow three simple rules for them. For Myrrh, you can only show her to your closest friends cause if she' seen by soemone else, she may disappear or something else that may harm you. She can't use her spells for anything cruel except for pranks and other harmless things and do not let anyone take her bottle which she sleep in from time to time. I advise you, if this somehow happens, you must get it back or else she will be forced to obey the person that holds it.
For Yami and Aqua, they must feast upon flesh or raw meat. They may eat something else but their main meal is the flesh of humans or raw meat. If they do not get these things, they might take it out from someone nearby or you if you're not careful. Have them in contact with you somehow, they care for you now and will treat more than an owner. If you do not contact them somehow then they will come whether you're in danger or not and last and you most certainly must not forget is to mate with them. They have a period when they search for a lifelong mate as you can say and now that they have chosen you to be their owner, you need to be there when they search to prevent them from leaving your home to search somewhere else. This is really important and you must do this." Count D said.
"May I ask why this is so important?" Yugi asked as he started to sign the contracts. "Because, if they are not satisfied with who they mate with the first time, they will devour the person..." he started before Yami continued for him. "And we don't take lightly to just one mishap such as that. We will keep searching until we find the right one and unless you want us to be the cause of this whole entire city being deserted, you must do this for us. We don't want to do such a thing but it's a part of our nature and we can't ignore it so easily." Yami said.
"But if that's true, how did you prevent it any other time before I came Count?" Yugi asked as he signed the contracts as well. "That's why they were in a dark room. They go out to find their mate during any phases of the moon. They will have to see the moon in order for them to react so if they can see it, they won't try to leave and search for someone. We have used that as a safety precaution so they won't try to kill or mate with the pets." Count D said. Aqua snorted. "Like we would do that. I think we would be better off killing them before trying." he said before pulling Yugi close with his tail and nuzzled him.
He stroked his snout and Myrrh giggled as she watched. "I think things will turn out well from here." Myrrh said. "I hope so. Anyways, everything is done and you can go ahead and leave now. If you need any help at all, you can always come back here." Count D said, handing Yugi the purple crystal bottle to him for Myrrh. "Ok Count D and thank you." Yugi said as he was lifted onto Aqua's back and they soon left out the shop, flying towards Yugi's home once he told Aqua where to go.
