Marik's Secret Chapter 2
Original Concept by JTP1717
Marik had begun his stroll towards his next victim's room. He approached Duke's door, and watched as the two guards stood on alert. They continually scanned each entrance, looking for any sign of trouble. Marik had once again scaled the pipes in the ceiling. Using it as an advantage to sneak behind them, he dropped behind one of the men. The other saw this, raised his suppressed weapon, and fired. Marik had grabbed this first man and used him as a shield against the gunfire. He then ran towards the other guard, drew his blade, and stabbed the man in the head, killing him instantly.
Marik opened Duke's door, and found the boy sleeping softly in his bed, still wearing his red jacket and headband. Marik locked the door behind him, and crept slowly toward the boy. He quickly grabbed both of Duke's arms and held them in place. Duke awoke, and tried to move his arms, but to no avail. He saw Marik pinning him to his bed, and continued to struggle.
"Go ahead, Devlin, try all you want, you're not leaving." Marik said as he dug his nails into Duke's wrists, causing Duke to cry in pain. Marik let go of Duke's wrists, allowing the blood to spill out freely, and giving Duke a chance to fight back. He took a swing at Marik, but Marik was faster than anything Duke could imagine. He was able to grab him with one hand and begin to choke the life out of him. Duke struggled, but couldn't beat Marik's inhuman strength. Marik laughed as he watched Duke get paler, and then felt his body go limp. After checking for a beat, he dropped his corpse along the wall. "I'm not finished with you yet." He grabbed his knife and proceeded to cut out Duke's heart, which he put in his pocket. He then put Duke's body back in bed, and promptly left the room.
Marik walked down another hallway and came upon Mai Valentine's room. He walked towards the room, and the guards didn't notice until it was too late. He used two hidden blades on his wrists to assassinate both guards cleanly and quietly. He opened here door, but noticed she wasn't in bed. He then felt the strike of a heavy object on the back of his head and turned to see Mai wielding a baseball bat. "I knew there was something off about you ever since the beginning." Mai said as she took another swing. Marik simply dodged the swing, using his swiftness to easily get behind Mai, and disarm her. "There's about to be something off about you too, darling." He laughed and then decapitated her with his blades. Her headless body collapsed to the floor, and he kicked her head into the trash "2 points." He chuckled as he walked back to his room and slept.
The morning was even worse than the day before. Six guards and two passengers were dead. To add to the murders, Serenity had received a package that contained a note saying "I give my heart to you- Duke" and had his heart as well. She went into a state of shock, and her brother has been consoling her for hours. Lockdown has been kept as a permanent order, with meals being delivered via the hydraulic tube system. Robot guards have been placed with real guards, and security has been upped extremely. This would make tonight's romp even harder, but Marik loved a challenge, especially one he knew he couldn't lose.
As night fell, Marik climbed into the air duct in his room to use as an access point. He would kill who he wanted to, without ever engaging a guard. His first target was Tea, and he knew exactly where he had to go.
He silently removed the vent cover above her bed, and dropped into her room. He pulled a roll of tape from his pocket, and proceeded to tape her mouth closed, and her arms to the bed, eliminating the struggle. He awoke to see his face stalking her, and attempted to scream, but the tape stopped her quickly. "My, my, you seem to gotten yourself into quite the bind. Let me see if I can help." He takes out his knife and stabs it into her gut. Her eyes scream as they stare at the bloody weapon. Marik launches his hand into her stomach and grabs her intestines, pulling them back out with his hand. He reaches back in and grabs her liver, showing it to her as she fades out of reality. "Dammit, I got intestine on my cape, I hate went that happens." He says mockingly as he jumps back into the vent. He approached the next room, Ryou's room.
Marik watched as the white haired British boy rolled over in his sleep. He was wearing his favorite blue pajamas and was cuddled in a heap of blankets. He breathed very softly, near silent, and looked like an angel. Unfortunately, the demon above him was going to make this his final slumber.
Marik slid down the wall like a spider, and crept up next to Ryou like a wolf following a stray lamb.
"Wake up Ryou; I have a present for you." Marik said in a sly, devilish tone to the boy. The boy stirred slightly, but continued to sleep. On his nightstand, the Millennium Ring began to glow as Bakura's spirit watched a murderer approach his host.
"How cute, Bakura, that you spent all this time keeping Ryou safe. Watch as it all goes to waste." Marik pulled a blade from his sash and raised it above Ryou. As he brought it down, Ryou opened his eyes and whimpered "Mummy…" The spirit cried out as he watched his host being stabbed over and over by this monster. After 8 stabs, Ryou laid unmoving on his bed, his bed covered in blood, and his white hair stained crimson. Marik folded the boys hands over his chest, making him look like an angel, then placed the ring under his hands.
Marik slipped back to his room once again, with any of the guards none the wiser. Within the ring, Yami Bakura began to cry out in anguish at the loss of his host. Tears fell down his face, and he fell to his knees, finally shouting in a depressed tone "Ryou!" before continuing to sob.
