Chapter Three

The youngsters were given lots of different foods to eat and with the foods were different potions that would make them strong enough to be able to survive the last ritual. This ritual would be the one that would allow their bodies to accept the embryo's that would implant into them after they had sex with the mates.

Under the building were four chambers and in these chambers were rooms. Each room was for each of the brothers to take the youngsters after they were given the last potion and it would be in those room where their bodies would be transformed and it would be the most difficult time for all of them, it would be up to their mates to make sure that they came through the transformation alright and then they would be sent into a deep sleep till their bodies changed.

Joey was the first to be taken down into the chamber designed for Seto and as he closed the door Seto walked over to the stand beside the bed and he picked up a glass of a strange looking liquid and Joey went over to him and he sat on the bed and he drank the liquid without even being told to.

Seto then said "You will need to take off your clothes and put this on." It looked like some kind of weird robe but it wasn't very long and so Joey did what he was asked to and then Seto said you will need to lay down on the bed and I will lay next to you so that I can help you when the transformation starts. I will be able to help take some of the pain away and then when it is complete you will go to sleep and your body will begin the healing process."

Joey was really kind of afraid but there was something about Seto that made him relax and as he lay on the bed, Seto had changed into some kind of weird looking gown and he took Joey into his arms and he whispered "Close your eye and try to relax, it has begun and you'll start to feel your body going into some kind of convulsions and I will be here to keep you focused and it will help ease some of your pain."

All of a sudden Joey thought that his body was going to blow apart and he started to scream and Seto took him and held him close to his body and he started chanting and it seemed to ease some of the discomfort, then it started again and this time it was ten times worse and Joey screamed and screamed and all Seto could do was pray that he survived this and he had tears running down his face and he held his mate in his arms and chanted the words that were handed down from father to son that were to help ease the pain of your mates body changing. Then all of a sudden Joey became very still and he opened his eyes and he whispered "Is it over?"

Seto shook his head and he said "There is one more thing that must happen and it will take place about right now." Joey's eyes got really huge and he screamed and tried to get away and all Seto could do was to hold him tight and chant and pray that it would soon be over. Then the room was quiet and Joey had drifted off to sleep and it was now over. Seto then cleansed Joey's body and put a gown on him and he lifted him up into his arms and carried him to some kind of crypt and he got inside with his mate close to his heart and the lid closed and they'd be there for three days and when they emerged Joey would be ready to mate with Seto.

It was now Yugi's turn and as Yami led him down the stairs to the room that was his, he said "This is where the transformation will take place and I will be here with you all the way."

Then like Seto, Yami walked over and held out a glass of strange looking liquid to Yugi and as he drank it he felt kind of weird. Yami then told him to take off his clothes and he had Yugi put on the same kind of robe that Joey wore and then Yami said Lay on the bed and I will lay next to you so that when the transformation begins I will be able to take away some of the pain." They laid there and all of a sudden Yugi looked at Yami and he started convulsing and he screamed and screamed as his body was changing and all Yami could do as Seto did was to hold Yugi to him and chant and try to ease away his pain.

It was harder on Yugi because he was smaller then Joey, but he looked at Yami and in between bouts of pain and agony he said "I am going to be your mate I want this to happen." Yami knew then that he loved his young man and he vowed to help take away his pain as much as he could. When the last stage started Yugi screamed and screamed and then he was still, Yami cleansed his body and put on a gown on him and like Seto did, he carried Yugi's body to the crypt and as he got in the lid closed and they would be in there for three days.

Ryou was the next one and as Bakura led him down beneath the building he felt Ryou's fear and he took his hand and he said "I will be with you and will never leave you till it is done." Ryou smiled at him and then Bakura handed him the drink and had Ryou put on the robe and as they climbed onto the bed Ryou grabbed hold of Bakura as transformation started and as Bakura cradled Ryou's body to his, Ryou screamed and screamed but he still held onto Bakura and as the last wave hit him and his body changed and then he was asleep, Bakura did as his brothers did, he cleansed Ryou's body, put the gown on him and with Ryou in his arms he climbed into the crypt and as the lid closed they too would be in there for three days.

Now Marik led Malik down to the chambers and as they went into the one that was designed for Marik, he said "You must drink this; it will allow the transformation to start. He had Malik put on the robe and as they lay on the bed, Marik brought Malik's body close to his as the first wave of pain struck Malik's body. Malik started convulsing and he screamed and screamed as the pain ravished his body. Marik held him close and he started chanting and he prayed that this young one would be alright. Then as the pain eased up a little Malik whispered "I want this, we are going to be mates" and the he last wave hit him and it was all Marik could do to hold onto Malik's body, then it stopped and like his brothers did, Marik cleansed Malik's body but on the gown and carried him to the crypt and upon getting in the lid closed and they too would be in there for three days.

After three days the lids opened and the brothers got out with their mates in their arms and laid them on the bed and after making sure that they were alright and that the transformation took place they said the words that allowed the young ones to wake up and as they opened their eyes they felt different and that's when the brothers told them "Your bodies have been transformed and you are now females and will remain that way until after the babies are born and they are weaned, then your bodies transform back but there won't be the kind of pain you just experienced."

The young ones stood up and they stood in front of the mirror and where they use to be male, there stood the bodies of females and as they turned to face their mates each of them went to them and they embraced and they each said "We are ready to mate."

Seto and his brothers then carried their mates up out of the chambers and out of the building and they walked to the healing pool and as they stripped naked they carried their mates into the water and allowed it to heal them and it also made the brothers very fertile and their mates were ready to conceive after they had sex with them.
