It was dusk as Yugi fallowed his past self, wondering how everything came to place, what was next, and more. Questions rang in his head like the buzz of the bees in a beehive.
Nothing makes sense. He thought. He knew! But he didn't say anything! He knows it! He knows the danger but he isn't doing anything about it! He glared at the floor as Heba, as he came to truly know him as people said 'Master Heba' when he passed, placed candles around the room and lit them. Both of them know. Atemu! Heba! They are both stupid! If they had done something, anything, no one would be where they are now!
"You have a lot of anger."
The voice made Yugi jump slightly as he looked at his past-life self with fear. Does he knew I'm here?
He watched intently as Heba looked into the flames of the wax candles as small white droplets slid slowly down. "Oh dear Horus, protect us from this great evil that has befallen us! I sense their great anger!"
Yugi let out his breath he had been holding in without realizing it. His amethyst eyes analyzed Heba's. They were a darker amethyst, almost dark violet in the candle light. His skin was a soft golden tan. Other than these two differences, everyone would have said they were twins.
But even so if the other's skin and eye color changed, there was still the air of knowing something more that Heba had around him that suddenly became noticeable. It was as thick as a fog covering an island, slow and steady, but strong enough, it might choke you like smoke.
Yugi watched Heba as he prayed in silence, eyes closed and hands together in a praying motion. He stayed like this for a long time before there was a soft knock on the door. Heba jumped and looked around as if checking for some foreign person that had been watching. Again, another attentive knock came again and Heba sighed. "Come in, the door is open."
The girl from earlier opened the door and smiled very softly. In her hands was a vase and a cup with fruit on the side. "Sir was worried when you didn't eat that much during dinner. He requested that I bring you something. I went small, unsure if you were feeling ill or not."
Kindly, Heba nodded his head and smiled. "Oh. I think I am just in worry right now. Not sick. But thank you. Even if not in ill, I don't feel I can handle much." He motioned to the table across from the bed, the sides stacked with scrolls in neat piles. "Would you mind putting the tray there? I should probably be turning out a few of these candles." He said and chuckled softly with slight embarrassment.
Nodding, Katlima walked over to the table, footsteps soft and extremely quite, she stepped as careful as an ally cat ready to strike its unsuspecting prey. She placed the tray down and looked at Heba as he moved the candles and snuffed some out. "Would you like me to pour you some wine?" she asked, her voice soft.
Heba just nodded as he continued about, moving a few scrolls. "Yes, please. And forgive me for the mess." He said and threw her a soft smile.
Katlima smiled innocently and turned so her back faced him. Yugi watched as She grinned evilly, teeth now showing. His eyes went wide and his mouth dropped in horror as he saw those unmistakable fangs.
"RUN HEBA! RUN!" He yelled madly, glancing over at Heba who just seemed deaf to him. He turned back and watched as Katlima took out a small clay vial and gently poured in a red liquid into the red wine. She shoved it into her small purse at her side and quickly put some fruit on a plate with the drink as she turned and smiled kindly at Heba. As he sat down, she walked over to him and carefully gave him the plate.
"There you go Master Heba. If you need anything else, or maybe do end up becoming sick, be sure that you may call on me." He said sickly sweet. Her tone almost like Alice's. Her eyes glimmered as she walked out of the room without another word.
Heba smiled slightly and shook his head. "She is to young and innocent to be working here." He said to himself as Yugi frantically called to him. Almost, as if in slow motion, he drank some of the wine.
Yugi's eyes widened more. "HEBA!"
Yami torn through the streets of Domino. The night dark as the only light available was the bright full moon that penetrated the clouds. The silver light beaming down in soft ribbons. I should have known. He thought, eyes narrowed as his inhumanly speed glided him gracefully and quickly through the streets.
They did it last time; I should have known those sick bastards would come back!
Honestly, he didn't know where he was heading. His mind racing with curses two both unsaid names, thoughts curling around his mind and the image of Yugi hurt or dead made his whole self numb.
I'll get to you Yugi. Oh my dear sweet Yuugi. I will get to you this time! He swore as he skidded to a stop at the first place he saw Yugi.
Not a moment longer did Seto stop beside him, blue eyes filled with a blue flame as he looked around. "I wish we had more than just a hint of where they could be." He said.
Yami glanced at him. "Don't count on anything but what we have, know, and feel. Those whom we should not have trusted, and felt we should not have trusted tricked us cleverly. For that, we lost our loves. We shall not do that again. I will not let someone else tell me what I am following is just a hint!" he growled. "One hint can lead to all the answers. We must believe in that."
Seto nodded. He knew his cousin would never get over that first death. He knew it. He just wished. He just wished that…
Maybe, he'll just forget.
But no. For the past five-thousand years, Atemu had been searching, following keenly with his senses till they grew dull around the second world war, after having so much blood from dead enemies of the new world.
"This isn't what I would wish to do." Atemu had said as he dropped that body of a fresh, dead, soldier. "I wish that their blood would run dry. All that blood they took from those innocent people of Egypt! I wish I could rip them apart! Kill them with my own bare hands!"
He remembered having seen the anger twisted face of Atemu. His eyes blazing with the thought of revenge, his whole body shaking with fury and pure hate.
He never wanted Atemu to say that again. He never did, but now, thinking back, he knew Atemu would not forget, and he knew, also, that when he had said that, it was a promise to the dead.
"Of course Atemu. Your right. We must take advantage of this. We know that they had a spy, apparently Alice. We know that it has to be them. They swore themselves they would not let us all be happy. And we all know.."
"A Vampire's word is his life." Yami finished sharply.
Seto nodded and watched as Yami started walking at a normal pace. He trailed after him as he carefully looked around them. He felt like he was being watched, but by who?
Jou shook his head as he fought the drug away. He was doing pretty well at it, compared to Yugi who completely knocked out after a few minutes of fighting it as Alice laughed and left.
Jou could feel his eyes dilating and he felt as if his mind was being squeezed and pushed together by hard air. Black fuzz and bright splotches of color splattered his vision as he continued to fight the sleep away. He wasn't going fall asleep! He was going to stand strong and not let these kidnappers get away so easily.
I have to figure something out, he thought in a dazed way. But first, I have to wake up Yug' and wake up myself. He shook and struggled tiredly in the binds, finding he could move. If only Yug' were awake! If we moved together, we could reach the door or something to cut these ropes with!
He relaxed only for a moment before shaking his head violently, smacking it against the wall behind them. "Ow!" he yelped, his voice horse. His eyes snapped open completely and his mind jumped awake as if he had just chugged a gallon of caffeine.
Little of the drug kept its grip as it slowly slipped off the rope in his mind as he looked around, the splotches disappearing. He looked at Yugi next to him and then at the rope.
Not to thick. It won't take too much to be able to untie it. Jou glanced around the room again to see if he could spot anything sharp enough to cut through it. It is a basement! There has to be some kind of tools or something!
"Damn it!" Jou cried as he sighed. "There has to be something. Something." He sighed as he rested his head against the wall. I only wish that Seto was close by. He would be able to hear my thoughts. I know it, he has always been able to do that, since the first time he sucked my blood.
Jou?
It didn't take long. Not long at all. Yugi stood there stunned as Heba's head bobbed up and down, trying to keep conscious. His eyes closed and opened, as he stumbled off the bed and to the door, falling on occasion before he reached it and just stood there, his legs trembling with his weight.
Yugi stood next to him, wishing he could touch him, but he knew he couldn't. These are my memories. He watched as Heba gathered his energy and flung the door open, heading down the hall, stumbling, and gripping the walls for support.
Where are the guards?! The hall was empty and dark as Yugi followed the other, his eyes not adjusting to the darkness that was only penetrated by small spots of light where the fire flickered and lapped up at the air.
Heba's breathing was the only thing that sounded in the hall. It was heavy and strained like he was almost having an asthma attack. Yugi's heart pounded in his chest and ears, Heba's drunk footing in beat with it.
"Atemu… Atemu…" he mumbled, almost as if telling himself his goal.
And then he dropped.
Yugi yelped and rushed to Heba's side as the said person dropped to his knees, arms encircling his stomach and pushing into it like a huge stomach ache attacked him. He gagged a scream as it came out in screeching whimpers. One hand brought itself up to his mouth and he pressed it against his upper teeth, like if they ached also.
Yugi watched horrified as Heba swayed up and down trying to hold himself from the pain that almost radiated in vibes to Yugi. He gagged and whimpered, holding his stomach and his upper jaw, pressing up and up like if to try and stop something.
And he saw it. Blood dripped from Heba's hand in thin rivers of red, dripping on small droplets to the golden floor As Heba's tightly squeezed shut eyes snapped open and he brought his hand away from his mouth. He rubbed the blood away and his eyes widened seeing two pin sized holes that slowly let out new beads of blood escape his palm.
He… He… he's a.. vampire…The words struck Yugi like arrows as he stepped back, eyes wide with horror.
Heba's eyes watered and soon the clear droplets fell from his eyes and he turned back too look at his chamber's open door. He attempted to get up, his bloodied hand reaching for the wal and slipping, smearing it with his blood as he let out a sob. Figuring out dazedly that he wouldn't be able to stand up, he crawled back to his room and shut the door. He used the small table closest to the door and used it to help him up as Yugi slipped in through the door and watched, keeping a distance though he knew he wouldn't be hurt.
Heba flung the little drawers open with his new strength and found a key, quickly, he locked the door and slid the key out of the room into the hall.
He slid to the floor and onto his knees, curling into a ball and letting the tears he had unconsciously been holding back, fall. He sobbed loudly and pressed himself against the wall.
Yugi's own eyes flooded with tears. He had no idea… Oh Ra… What is going to go on next? He shook his head and he looked at the door, eyes watering. Katlima.. She did this… That liquid.. it was.. it was..
His eyes widened.
It was vampire blood..
BE Dragon: Yeah I know. TT I shouldn't end it here, but I have to! XD
