Gah! Again, so so sorry! It's Christmas time, so I got distracted! Plus, I'm FINALLY in a relationship, so I have a life now! XD Bare with meh peeps! Here is chapter two! ^_^ Enjoy! Oh, and kate you guessed right, Atem-Yami-Yugi4alltime…Sorta…And sailorblaze, that's just mean XD Ryou doesn't look abnormal! Anyway, on with the story!
Ryou and Yugi were walking back towards Yugi's village, hand in hand, also with a bunch of fire wood. They were just chatting about whatever came to mind; Friends, family, and even ghosts made it's way into the conversation.
"So, you believe in ghosts?" Yugi asked Ryou with a disbelieving look.
Ryou nodded. "Yes. And were wolfs, and zombies, and monsters, and even vampires." Ryou added an emphasis on the word 'vampire'.
"Oh, well my grandpa always told me those things are all fake!" Yugi said with a big cheeky grin, skipping and swinging him and Ryou's held hands.
"Well, I've met a vampire before." Ryou told Yugi, making him stop dead in his tracks.
"Wow! Really? What happened?" Yugi asked, his full attention on Ryou now.
"Um…Well, I was walking around in the woods by myself. I probably shouldn't have, because my parents always told me not to. But, there I was in the woods…Then I saw him."
"What did he look like?" Yugi was being sucked into Ryou's story, wanting to know what happened extremely bad.
"Well…Now that I think about it…He looked a lot like you. The spiky, tri-colored hair, about the same height, he even has that same pendent." Ryou said, gesturing down to the upside down pyramid around Yugi's neck. "Only, he was slightly taller, had sharper features, and his eyes were crimson, not amethyst…Like your pretty eyes." Ryou said, making Yugi blush with that last bit. "What is that around your neck anyway?"
"What? Oh, this?" Yugi said, pointing down to the item he was wearing. It was a golden pyramid, only it was upside down. It had many lines running all over it, like a puzzle would. And in the front, at the very center was the Eye of Anubis, that seemed to be gleaming and staring into your very soul. "It's called the Millennium Puzzle. My grandfather told me it was one of a kind though. I wonder how someone else has the same thing?" Yugi wondered out loud.
Then something hit Ryou. "Wait a minute…Did you say Millennium Puzzle?"
Yugi nodded. "Yeah, why? Do you have a Millennium Puzzle too?"
"No, but I do have this." Ryou said, taking out a ring from literally out of no where. It was a large golden ring, attached to a rope, it had a triangle in the center of the ring, baring the same eye as the Millennium Puzzle. There were 5 diamond like spikes hanging down from the bottom of the ring. They seemed to be doing a very peculiar thing…The spikes were pointing towards the Millennium Puzzle! Both Ryou and Yugi stared at the sight until Yugi finally spoke up.
"What is that Ryou?" He asked.
Ryou looked up and scratched his head. "Um…I don't know…I've only seen it do this one other time and that was with the vampire. Even then, I thought it was just the wind."
"I'm still surprised you made it away from the vampire alive!" Yugi said with astonishment.
"Um…Yeah, about that. There's something I need to tell you Yu-" Ryou started, but was cut off by a voice…With an obvious accent.
"Yo Yug'! Dere ya are! Your gramps was getting worried 'bout ya cause ya hadn't gotten back yet! How long does it take to get fire wood?"
"Hi Joey! Sorry it took me so long!" Yugi said, waving to his friend Joey.
"It's cool, your gramps asked if I'd find ya…And, who's dat?" Joey asked, walking up in front of Ryou.
Ryou felt Joey was too much in his space. "…Uh-"
"Well, it seems ya got more den fire wood, ey Yug'?" He joked, looking around Ryou like he was inspecting him.
"I beg your pardon-"
"It's ok Ryou, he's normally like this." Yugi said, making Joey scowl at him. "Joey, this is Ryou. Ryou this is my best friend Joey." Yugi introduced.
Ryou held out his hand for Joey to shake. "It's a pleasure to meet you Joey!" He said with a big grin on his face. Joey took it and shook his hand a little too hard. Ryou pulled back his hand. "…Ow…" He muttered to himself, rubbing his palm.
"Whoops, sorry dude! Now, c'mon Yug'! Your gramps is waitin'!" Joey said running ahead, only to stop and turn back around. "Uh, you two er holdin' hands…Why?"
Yugi blushed at the question, making Ryou giggle at him. Yugi sighed and answered. "I like him Joey!"
"…Well, I kinda shoulda figured dat I guess." Joey said, laughing. "Nice Yugi! Finally found another guy who likes ya!"
Yugi bushed darker. "Thanks Joey!"
"Mkay, now lets go!" Joey said, pukking at Yugi's arm, dragging Ryou along with him.
They were about to reach the edge of the forest when Ryou stopped. Yugi and Joey jerked to a stop.
"What's wrong Ryou?" Yugi asked, seeing the worry on his face.
"What time is it?"
"Um, 'bout noon." Joey answered, gazing up at the sky.
Ryou went wide eyed. "Noon? As in the sun is out?" He asked, backing away from the edge of the woods.
"Um, yes. The sun is normally always out at noon. Why?" Yugi asked confused.
"Uh, there's something I was going to tell you earlier, but then Joey came. Ehe…Remember when you said you're surprised how I made it away from that vampire alive?" Ryou asked in a serious tone. Yugi nodded. "Um, well-I didn't exactly-" But Ryou was interrupted once again by the blood curdling scream of someone in the village, plus the word that sent all three boys into a state of shock:
"WERE WOLVES!"
*Somewhere distant*
"It's time brothers." The tallest of the three vampires said.
The white haired one scoffed. "Why do you call us 'Brothers'? We aren't brothers you wanker!"
The two began to argue.
The shortest of the three just face palmed. "Will both of you just shut the hell up? If we wait too long, we wont get any fresh blood from the bodies attacked by the wolves! It'll end up stale!" He yelled, causing the other two to stop yelling.
"Oh…Right…" The white haired one said.
"Then lets go!" The short tempered smallest vampire yelled, darting out the door at super fast speeds, towards the village about to be mauled to bits by were wolves.
Oooh, anyone think they can guess who the three mystery vampires are? And what's Ryou's secret? And what will happen to the village? Why am I asking you all these questions? Just stay tuned! I will update my other stories later! ^_^ TTYL!
