Alrighty, I'm not quite sure where this came from…. Err… it's a short Anzu centric ficu, pro-Anzu, just her dreams and thoughts during Battle City, how her subconscious wants to help Yugi and Yami, but feels as though she isn't doing enough and she cries for them….

Bloody Tears
She's crying again, deep wracking sobs that cause her to choke and gag in and effort to staunch their painful sound. She reaches up and shakily brushes her auburn hair away from her pale clammy cheeks; the strands stick to the cool sweat tingeing her almost translucent skin. She forced her eyes closed, trying to keep the tears in. 'They burn,' She thought, 'they burn so much.' The tears escape, she lets out a painful moan, a half-sob, as if she doesn't have the strength to stop herself.
Panting, she throws her head backwards as the burning in her normally clear blue eyes continues. Her heart wrenches and her body quivers, another sob escapes from her, a painful burning sob. She presses her hands to her mouth to stop the sound. The tears streak her cheeks.
She can't help them; there is nothing she can do. They are out of her power. 'Were they ever in my power?' She wonders desperately. Her slender hands for fists, she gasps slightly as her nails dig into her pale creamy flesh. She uncurls her hands and stares at the palms, her eyes still burning. There are five crescent marks on her flesh, pooling with blood. Another sob, they are gradually becoming closer together and stronger.
Drip. Drip. Drip.
She looks down and through her burning eyes she can see drops of darkness staining what had once been a clean pearly white dress.
There isn't anything she can do. They are on their own; she's down all she can. 'Did I really do all I can?' She wonders miserably. It's not a matter of she can it's a matter of what she can't. As if that was the cause of her problems, another sob racks her body; she wraps her arms around herself in a half-hearted attempt at comforting herself.
Wait…what was that, sinewy objects that her hands touched. Sniffling she twisted her head this way and that trying to see what her shaky hands had touched. They were… wings…. Beautiful white, satiny, shiny, wings. Wings she didn't deserve. Angel wings.
Another tear hit her cheek and more pooled in her eyes. She reached up and swiped at them. The warm gooey substance coated her fingers in a sticky coat. She looked down at her pale hand. Blood. She was crying blood, bloody tears. "Humans can't cry bloody tears, only angels do." She murmured.
Something crashed behind her and she whirled around, catching a sight of her shimmery wings out of the corner of her eye. 'Go away! I'm no angel!' She thought. Her breath caught in her throat as she looked downward.
Yugi…Yami no Yugi….bleeding, dead, white. She looked down to her hand; a bloody dagger was in her hand.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOoooooo" Anzu howled as she thrashed in her bed, waking up from that nightmare. She panted as if she had been running. She wiped her forehead, and looked down at her hands, dried blood.
She almost heard the dark cold voice that said, "Humans don't cry bloody tears, angels do."
"I'm no angel," Anzu thought shivering violently as she looked around at the cold interior of her room in Kaiba's air ship. "I just wish there was more that I could do, to help them" She laid down, closing her eyes, shivering. "It was…just…a dream…everything will be much better tomorrow."
Right, so everyone let me know what you think…
