Die For Me
'I watched you. I met you. I kissed you. I asked you. I married you. I killed for you. I died for you. Now... I'm waiting for you to return to me. So that I may love you for the rest of my immortality.'
Crimson searching for Violet.
Dull ruby eyes watched as the unconcious, bloody and hurt, petite boy squirmed on the scarlet bed. His cherub face was contorted with pain as he clenched his fists and moaned in agony. A loving smile touched grey, dead lips. Then the corpse opened his mouth to sing softly, "Sleep away, my Love. Sleep away. As time passes, so does the seconds that tick your life away. Sleep away, my Love. Sleep away. I await your dying day. Sleep away, my Love. Sleep away. Once you've given up, let me take you away." As the cadavar chanted, he was pleased to see that the scars on the boy's body were disappearing. "You will never be in pain when you are near me."
Bakura felt soft hands stroking his face. Leaning into the touch, he said, "I should've known you would take care of me, Ryou." The white haired man smiled.
He heard a giggle and a voice spoke, "I would pretend to be this 'Ryou' if it would please you." It said. Bakura frowned and opened his eyes, pushing himself onto his elbows. He found himself staring straight into a face that looked exactly like Ryou. The few differences were that the man's snowy hair was peaked out in all directions, his eyes were a muddy, emotionless brown and a silver scar glinted on his lower lip. The face smiled broadly when it saw it's patient awake.
"I'm happy to see you are awake." The Ryou look-alike turned away from Bakura to fiddle with something on a small table. It gave enough time for Bakura to look around.
He was lying on a twin bed. The frame was a barred brass with blue-and-white, satin sheets. The wallpaper was a darker blue. A dark brown writing desk and tall wardrobe was set in front of the bed beside a blue painted door. There was a bay window to the side that had drapes pulled across, closing off the light.
Bakura found himself feeling dizzy as he looked to his left side. He caught sight of another bed that had a tall, slender, half-naked man in it.
"Seto?" Bakura called quietly.
He was about to call again when a gentle laughing voice stopped him, "You will not be able to awaken him. We had to put him to sleep longer for his injuries to heal." Bakura's eyes twitched as he noted that he had no bruises or wounds on his bare skin. Then as he slowly woke up from his strange daze, he let out an un-manly yelp and grabbed a blanket; pulling it securely around his lower body. He was completely nude! He looked back at the Ryou look-alike, anger and confusion etched on his face.
"What the hell?" He demanded.
The soft man watching him cocked his head to the side and gave a mischevious smile, the silver scar on his lip shining, "My name is Ryra. Welcome to the residence of the Atem mansion."
YGO-YGO-YGO-YGO-YGO-YGO
In another bedroom, this one larger than the first with a canopy bed and two twin beds opposite it. The bed sheets were patterns of various shades of pink. Lying on the two smaller beds was Ryou and Joey, along with them in the canopy was a snoring, stretched out Marik. Ryou was curled under a mound of blankets with three pillows surrounding his thin, pale body. Marik had his big mouth wide open and drool running down the side of his mouth.
Joey was sitting up in his bed, his sheets thrown off his legs. He wore the same roomy, duel monster pictured boxers he had been wearing before the crash. The rest of his clothing had vanished, not that it made a big difference, he often walked about the Kaiba mansion in his underwear. But being caught without your pants on in a stranger's house was an entirely different matter.
The shaggy blonde had noted earlier that he felt no pain or discomfort whatsoever. So, being as clumsy as he usually was, Joey tried to step nimbly out the bed.
DOFF!
"Ow..." Joey rubbed the back of his rear from his seat on the cold floor. He pouted and stood up, hanging onto the bed's metal frame. "Stupid bed." He complained and thrust his fist into the head board. Joey's face crumpled and he pulled his hand back, blowing hard on his sore, red knuckles.
In Ryou's bed, the albino sat up, the blankets falling off his bare shoulders, "What...? What happened? Joey?" He looked uncertainly at his shaggy, blonde haired friend.
Joey gave a goofy grin and stood up, promphtly hitting his head on a polished wood dresser.
Still sitting on his bed, Ryou watched as Joey's face fell. Tears collected in his eyes and Ryou could see that the athletic man was trying not to show the hurt. Ryou decided to help him... By laughing.
"Hahahaha! Joey, you really need to wear a helmet and body suit where ever you go!" Ryou chortled. The pure white haired male fell back into the pillows, his chest heaving.
"Can't you two shut up for five minutes?" Both men spun around to gaze at the canopy bed's occupant. "I'm trying to get some sleep here and you guys could wake up a house full of dead people!"
Marik's fist grabbed a yellow, frilly pillow and threw it over his head. He was about to throw another when he finally realized that something was wrong.
What the hell is this frilly doing in my bed? He thought, slightly miffed.
Sitting up, Marik stared disdainfully at the ruffle edged blankets, curtains, chair cushions and pillows. Finally, he said, "I'm going to kill Malik. He can decorate all he wants, but our bedroom is MY domain." Malik's eyes gleamed.
Joey and Ryou exchanged looks, and the smaller of the two stepped up, "This isn't your bedroom."
Marik looked up at him, "So, we're really dead then? I was kidding when I said you could wake up a house full of dead people."
