Tear Drop of Love
Chapter 10: Crystal Lake
In a far away place, where a trailer was moving super fast, was carrying a huge cage inside the trailer. Inside the cage was a huge bear that has rabies. The man that was driving the trailer just drove and decided to go near Crystal Park, which was close to where he needed to take the bear to be executed. The bear had already killed six people with it's deadly bites.
The man was whistling along with the music, when a deer jumped up out of nowhere. It was night time and the man quickly turned the wheel making the truck go sideways and fall of the cliff and right into Crystal Park. The man was unconscious, the trailer had a huge hole where the cage hit, the cage was broken and the bear got up it's red eyes targeting someone. The bear left deep into the woods.
"Alright listen you maggots," Riku walked up inside Ryou's class. Malik, Joey and Yugi were in the same class. The teacher stopped what she was doing and listened. "I will be taking you all to a nice field trip for three days. Pack up your shit and meet me in the front of the orphanage, there will be some supervisors waiting for you right next to a bus. Get moving!" Riku snapped her fingers.
Ryou followed Joey to their room. Yugi and Malik were excited to go camping into Crystal Park, a very popular place where a family could enjoy it's beauty. It has a lake with a huge waterfall where you could dive. Malik has looked up Crystal Park through the internet and was so giddy. Ryou smiled at his friends, child-like behavior. He had a bad feeling though, deep in his gut.
"Ryou, when we get there we should dive from the water fall. Yugi and Joey could be or judges and score us!" Malik said in a hyper tone that it was a bit hard to understand.
"I want to go hiking, I heard that in the hills you could find interesting insects. In a cave myth has it that if people with pure hearts enter, they will see butterflies glowing in the dark!" Yugi exclaimed very happy.
"I don't think that could happen. It's just a myth." Joey said raising an eyebrow at his friend.
"No, it's true. We read it in the computer!" Malik pouted.
"If you're sure." Ryou smiled softly.
"Noah, aren't you excited?" Yugi told the boy who joined them. He already had his duffle bag on his back.
"A little," Noah responded.
Ryou and the other's all gathered their belongings into a small bag and zipped it up. Ryou being Ryou, made sure that everyone had their things and made a double check. Once they were done, they headed out into the bus with happy faces.
"Bakura, are you ready?" Mai yelled from down the stairs. She was suppose to take them five minutes ago to their schedule location.
"Where's Duke?" Mokuba asked looking around.
"I send him to go tell Max that we might be late. I'm pretty sure that he wanted to go see the new guy who Max just hired, I think his name was Tristan." Mai answered.
"He's allowed to have somebody and we can't?" Marik whined.
"First of all, Duke is my butler/model. I rarely use him now." Mai answered again. She was about to yell at Bakura to hurry up when said male was descending from the stairs.
"It's about time." Yami muttered.
"Well sorry for brushing my teeth. Did you all wanted me to take pictures with ugly yellow teeth?" Bakura glared.
"No, now hurry." Mai said walking out the door the other's right on her heels. Mokuba wanted to go too, who could resist Mokuba giving the eyes?
Mai drove to the park to find it full of cars. She barley found a spot when another car left the park. Mai got out of the park and walked up to their spot. Bakura walked right behind her, for someone who wears Gucci heels she sure walks fast…almost running. Seto was walking right next to the blond woman, he noticed a bus parking in the bus parking lot. Yami noticed where Seto was staring and looked only to almost stop dead in his tracks. He saw a woman with long light brown hair in a bun, her burgundy eyes glared at anything that moved, but that didn't want to make Yami stop what did was a short tri-colored hair boy that jumped down, followed by the same people who were in the alley.
"Hurry," Mokuba grabbed Yami's leather short-sleeved shirt and dragged him behind his smaller body.
"Finally, alright you guys this will be for next years new perfume line. I want Bakura to take his shirt off. Sara will be with you in this picture, she will be coming out at any minute. Bakura you are to hold Sara's waist and look seductively towards her eyes, while she does the same to you. I want you to hold her like you love her with all your heart." Max said writing down something in a notebook.
"Why do I have to?" Bakura did not like the idea of holding Sara like that at all. He'd rather vomit and rub it in his eyes than hold her against his chest with love in his eyes.
"Do it Bakura," Mai ordered rubbing her temples with her fingers, a migraine was coming.
"Bakura just do it, just pretend she's Ryou." Marik said while smirking.
"Who's Ryou?" Mai asked curious.
"Someone Bakura has a crush on," Mokuba smiled innocently.
"We just met them by the alley. Nothing big happened." Bakura said hiding that small pink blush on his cheeks. He had missed the other white haired boy, even though they just met, it feels like he has known him for an eternity.
"I said no lovers. I can't believe you guys are not straight. Well at least you'll become even more famous." Mai quietly said. She wanted to know if Mokuba liked girls, but knowing how girly he looks with the long hair and small slender body, he was probably liking his own gender. If she were to adopt them, they sure as hell won't give her grandchildren.
"Okay I'm ready for my shoot," Sara said walking up to them she wore a pink robe. Her make-up was professionally done making her look younger than her real age. She was five years older than Bakura and the others.
"Alright you guys, I have this lake reserved for us for a while. Bakura stand up how I told you, Sara you are to hold Bakura from the waist and bring his body closer towards you. Look at him up in the face with lust, and a seductive smile. Both your faces close, looking like you're going to kiss each other." Max walked up to them. He put a flower behind Sara's ear. The water cascaded beautifully where they were going to stand.
Bakura saw Sara taking off her robe. She had on a white bikini. He almost gagged at her trying to walk very sexy. To Bakura, it was like a scarecrow trying to walk. Sara hugged Bakura and did as she was told. Bakura had to cover up his disgust and looked down at her with his lust gaze down at her. 'Pretend it's Ryou' Bakura repeated. The water was soaking them, making Bakura's hair wet and flat. Sara went a whole step and almost kissing Bakura on the mouth, just a couple of more inches and her lips would be kissing his. The water made a rainbow when the sun hit it making it give a beautiful glow as if they were really in love.
Marik sighed, he didn't like the look on Sara's face one bit. He watched as Yami and Seto had clenched their mouth. Marik turned towards Duke who was standing next to Tristan, Duke was glaring at Sara with hatred in his eyes. He saw Mai who has a hard look in her face. Marik looked at Max as he took his pictures.
Ryou set the tent where up to six people could fit. Good thing that it was him, Noah, Yugi, Malik and Joey sharing one tent. Yugi and Malik went to go look for some rocks so they could start a fire. They just wanted everything done early, if they were to go have fun like the other, they would be too tired to fix up the tent.
"I got the matches that Riku gave me." Noah said handing some to Ryou.
"Thanks," Ryou smiled receiving the matches.
"Man, I'm tired. I can't wait to go swimming." Joey smiled. He was already in his swimming trunks and shoes. A towel was resting on his shoulders.
"Did you bring your swimming trunks Noah?" Ryou asked.
"Yeah, I just need to change into them." Noah said walking inside the tent. He was changing.
"Did you bring yours?" Joey asked.
"Of course I did. I can't wait to swim." Ryou said stretching his arms up.
"Neither can us. I'm going to go change into my trunks." Malik smiled and walked inside. Noah already done walked outside. Yugi began to take off his clothes.
"Yugi, that's what are tents for. So you can change into your trunks." Joey said fake screaming like a girl.
"I already have mine on. I just need to take off my clothes, I'm not you guys who had to change." Yugi smiled.
"Whatever," Malik said walking out of the tent. Ryou walked in and began to change.
When Ryou was done, they all traveled the not so long distance towards the lake. There were signs in to where to go to the bathroom and such. The park only had one bathroom, if you had to pee, it was up to you. They walked a bit more until they saw some people leaving the lake. Ryou thought that he got a glimpse of another white head, but dismissed it as Malik grabbed his wrist and dragged him closer to the lake. It was slowly moving down taking the water elsewhere.
"Come on people. There's not a soul here. Lets have some fun!" Malik shouted in excitement. He left his towel and shoes in a nearby tree. The others mimicking the same and ran up the water fall.
"Whose going first?" Noah asked looking at the older teens.
"I vote Yugi," Joey said smacking the short teen's back.
"Say Malik," Yugi gulped. It didn't look this big, on the screen it looked much smaller.
"How about you Ryou?" Malik asked the white haired albino.
"Fine," Ryou got ready position about to fall down when another voice joined in.
"Mind if we join you guys?" Ryou knew who it was, but he couldn't stop his falling and fell towards the water. He turn around just in time to look up at Bakura's smirk as gravity pulled him down.
"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU MALIK!" Ryou's scream was heard very clearly then a big 'splash' was heard.
Ryou opened his eyes upon feeling water around him. He held his breath and was swimming up, his hair making him look angelic. He rose from the crystal clear lake taking a deep breath, until another voice was heard. He looked up to find Malik making his way down, Marik and Bakura right next to him. Ryou tried to swim as far as he could, until the three of them made a big wave taking Ryou down to the water.
"I thought you couldn't swim?" Bakura asked as he held Ryou's small waist. His darker eyes looking down at big chocolate brown eyes with a smirk.
"We had to learn in the orphanage." Ryou blushed. He looked up at Bakura, after so long being far away, he finally got another chance to be next to him. He had forgotten one little detail that happened a while ago.
"Ryou we're coming down!"
Ryou and Bakura looked up to see six more teens diving from up the waterfall. Yugi looked like he was being dragged by Yami who was holding his hand. Joey was diving down trying to compete with Seto to see who would get to the water first. Mokuba and Noah just dived in not really paying attention to anyone else but each other. Ryou and the others who were already in the lake tried to swim away. It was already too late as they made a big splash drowning all four of them as well.
"That was so much fun!" Mokuba said hugging Ryou from the front.
"It was." Noah said almost smiling at the raven-haired pre-teen.
"I beat you Seto!" Joey yelled in victory.
"That was kind of fun." Yugi said hugging Yami from his back.
"I want to do it again!" Malik swam towards land.
"I'm after you." Marik said after the teen.
"No." Malik said. Both bronze skin teens raced up the hill.
"I have to go too, in case Malik gets hurt." Ryou said swimming towards land.
Bakura saw something in Ryou's back and began to swim after him. When he saw Ryou step out of the water, his eyes narrowed.
"Ryou," Bakura barked.
"Yes?" asked Ryou confused at Bakura's change in attitude. He saw Bakura walking his way now, since he was out of the water, the others also noticed Bakura's bark and stopped what they were doing and stared at the white-haired male.
"Why in the name of Ra, do you have marks on your back?" Bakura asked growling. He didn't like marks on Ryou's flawless skin, unless they were made by him on the neck.
Ryou, Noah. Yugi, Joey and Malik all froze and had their eyes widened. The other's all saw this and narrowed their eyes. something fishy was going on and it's not the fish swimming on the lake.
"Well?" Bakura asked after a while of waiting.
"Um…I fell." Ryou said and mentally scolded himself. How can someone believe that lame excuse, the marks were now scars of Riku's punishment.
"Really now. How can someone get line scars by falling?" Bakura asked with a growl.
"I can't tell you." Ryou looked away.
"Yes we can. In fact I'll tell you everything." Malik said coming down from the hill, Marik on his heels.
"Malik," Joey hissed. If they ever tell a soul of what Riku did to them, then they will go missing as well.
"Why can't we tell them. Maybe they could help us." Malik tried to reasoned.
"We will get in trouble." Ryou said panicking. He knew Malik won't hesitate in telling them everything.
"It was Riku who made those scars on him. She has ruind our lives since day one." Malik burst out. "She is the cause of why so many people go missing everyday claiming that they were probably adopted. She's a liar. She will do everything in her power to destroy us, one by one." Malik said or rather yelled it.
Bakura, Seto, Mokuba, Yami and Marik all froze and stared at them with widened eyes. They didn't say anything in a long time.
"Is it okay if you guys meet us here at night? We promise that we will take you somewhere where you will call home." Bakura held Ryou's hands in his bigger ones.
"Are you saying…" Ryou dared not finish as hope flashed in his doe eyes.
"I promise we'll take you somewhere where no one's going to hurt you." Bakura put his fore-head on Ryou's and closed his eyes. He wants to kiss him so bad, but it's not time for that, yet.
"Really? We get to leave that awful orphanage?' asked Malik hope in his lavender eyes.
"Sure, just make sure you wait for us later like at nine." Marik said. He will take innocent Malik away from that witch and give him a better home. That is if Mai would like to keep them all.
"Wow, I'm excited." Yugi smiled up at Yami.
Joey smiled, a pair of blue eyes loved to see that smile more often. Noah looked happy too, and looked at Mokuba who smiled at him. Malik went to go to their camp site and collected shirts. He gave them a shirt and began hiking. They all decided to go into two groups. Noah went with Mokuba, Seto, Joey, Yami and Yugi. While Marik, Malik, Bakura and Ryou went another way. Promising each other to meet in front of the lake at seven.
Ryou traveled inside the caves, he saw the cave give out a dark aura. Ryou ignored it and kept walking right next to Bakura. The cave was split in two ways.
"We'll take this side," Marik held Malik's hand and went the other side. Malik didn't seemed to mind one bit as he was being dragged by Marik.
"Alright," Bakura didn't miss the smirk Marik was giving him.
Ryou walked a little up ahead to see a ribbon of light up ahead. The cave was wet and slippery, if Ryou would fall, Bakura made sure to catch him. And when Ryou would slip, Bakura caught him by the waist and held him up. Ryou would blush and mutter a thank you.
They got out of the cave and saw fireflies flying around the slightly now dark sky. The fireflies all glowed a golden color giving Ryou a look of a pure innocent angel. They heard gasps. Ryou looked up to find Yugi and the other's walking their way up the hill. Malik and Marik joined them a while later. The fireflies all began to fly around as if making a show and making figures.
"They look beautiful." Ryou said.
"Yeah," Joey whispered.
"Oh look," Mokuba pointed to a firefly landing on his finger.
"Aw," Yugi cooed as a firefly landed in the palm of his hands.
Ryou put his hands up slightly as if to catch the fireflies. The fireflies were around him, and one landed right on his nose. He smiled as the firefly rested on his little nose. Bakura stared at him with a slight smile. Ryou looked beautiful with that smile, the fireflies all seemed attracted to Ryou. The fireflies all went to another direction, leaving them.
"It's getting late. We should head out to." Seto spoke up.
"This way is much faster," Ryou said walking to the cave. Everyone followed the white-haired teen.
They walked up until they had to split paths.
"Remember, in exactly two on second thought one hour we'll be back here in this very spot. We will be waiting for you." Bakura said.
"Bring what you need, or just come with comfortable clothes." Yami said.
"We'll see you later." Mokuba smiled and waved after a while.
Ryou and the others waved happily and made their way back to the tent.
Bakura followed the others and walked up to their RV's. He needed to talk to Mai about Ryou and the other's; he didn't miss the small scars on the other's bodies either, Ryou's scars were more noticeable than the others. He walked up to a certain RV and knocked on it hard. The door opened and in revealed the blond woman.
"What is it Bakura? There will be another shoot tomorrow early in the morning. I suggest you go to sleep now." Mai said. She wore a tank top with shorts.
"We need to talk," Yami said.
"It's rather urgent," Marik said dead serious that Mai was almost shock.
"Alright," Mai let them in. "What is it?"
"We have a few friends of ours that are in trouble. And we need to help them, and no it's not about gangs and all that crap. They grew up in the orphanage…" Bakura said.
After they had told Mai everything they knew, Mai's eyes widened. She has never heard of such a horrible place in her life. She wanted to help the poor souls that live in such a place.
"Alright, bring them here." Mai said. "I'll see what I can do. Maybe they can live with us, after I talk to their headmistress. And if what you say is true, then we need to contact the police and have them talk to them so they could shut down that place."
"Okay, we'll be right back-" Yami didn't get to finish as Bakura walked out of the huge RV.
"You guy's, where the hell were you?" Riku asked glaring at them.
"We were just looking around." Ryou explained.
"Well go get me water on these buckets. They need to be filled, so we can water the fire when we go to sleep." Riku said throwing a couple red plastic buckets, one aiming at Ryou's face. A purple bruise now showed on his velvet skin.
"All of you go." Riku pointed at all of them.
Ryou and the others left the campsite with the red buckets. They all went to the lake, since it was night, the water was slightly cold.
"I don't want to go inside," Malik whined.
"Don't look at me." Joey said.
"Oh, I'll go. You guys stay here." Ryou growled and snatched the buckets from them. He went down the small hill, taking off his shoes, he stepped inside the water.
"What's wrong Max?" Mai answered the phone.
"What ever you do, don't go outside." Max said in a panicked voice.
"Why, what's wrong?" Mai asked nt liking Max's tone at all.
"Tristan and Duke are here saying that they had bumped into a grizzly bear with rabies. He has killed seven people in the park already. Inform Bakura and the others." Max hung up. Mai began to panic. The others didn't even have cell phones yet. She put on a jacket her sneakers and walked out. She made sure to have a bat with her in case she finds the bear before them.
Ryou was gathering water, from where Malik was standing it looked like a painted portrait. The water shined more in the moons glare. The trees made shadows on the ground, making it almost impossible to see.
"I can't believe Riku took us on this trip," Malik said with awe struck on his face.
"Hey, what the hell is that coming this way?" Joey pointed towards something big coming their way down from the small hill from the waterfall.
The shadows of the night covered it up not seeing what it was. The moon didn't help either, since the pine trees made thick shadows.
"I have no idea, it looks like" Malik was cut off.
"A bear!" Yugi and Noah shouted with horror.
"Holy shit, Ryou get out of the water!" Malik shouted.
Ryou looked up from where he was gathering water with a bucket to see his friends with horror stricken in their faces. They were pointing behind him. Confused Ryou turned around and stopped dead on his tracks. There was a huge bear standing on his back legs, and he didn't look happy at all. Ryou noticed foam coming out of the beast's mouth, and paled, the bear had rabies. There was blood in it's mouth. Ryou gulped and closed his eyes as one of the bear's paws was about to hit him, when someone pushed him into the water. Ryou opened his eyes, he looked up as he saw the face of his savior.
Bakura was about to have a heart-attack when he saw the bear near Ryou. He ran as fast as his long legs could. He was about to die when he saw the paw of the bear raise up in the air and was bout to hit him and kill Ryou instantly. He pushed him onto the water. He looked down to see if Ryou had any injuries. Only a small purple bruise, he frowned not liking such a thing appear on Ryou's velvet skin. A growl was heard as the bear was walking their way. Bakura helped Ryou up and tried to run to land, the bear pushed them more into the water. Ryou kept slipping in the muddy water as they kept walking backwards deep into the water.
The bear began to run tier way, ignoring the big rocks that were thrown their way by Seto, Marik and Yami. Mokuba was behind them safely secured. Malik and the others joined them into throwing rocks.
Ryou knew they were screwed, the bear could swim faster than them. He was in Bakura's arms when a bat hit the bear square in the nose. Ryou looked up to see a blond woman, hitting the bear with the bat.
"Mai," Bakura was amazed.
"Don't just stand there. Run, before I annoy the bear." Mai hissed.
Bakura grabbed Ryou and pushed him towards the other's way. Ryou didn't want to go and leave Bakura. Bakura glared at him and Ryou ran quickly their way. Bakura made sure that Ryou was in safety with them. He went to go help Mai; the bear got even more angrier and bite down the bat. Mai was up in the air still holding the bat, Bakura saw as Mai let go of the bat landing on the water, she got up and made her way towards him. Bakura held his hand to her and helped her run.
"Run!" Mai shouted to the group.
The group ran following the tallest ones who were Marik and Seto to the RV's. Mai made sure everyone was inside her RV. She closed the door just in time when the bear began to claw it's way into the door. Seto and Marik began to shove things in the door. Bakura and Yami did as well. Mai began to call Max to get the police.
"The bear is going to push the RV over," Joey said.
"It will hold on, for while." Mai said. She looked over the other teens over. Three of them looking like her models but more innocent. Her eyes lingered to Ryou, she stared at him, her heart beating really fast all of the sudden.
Ryou felt eyes on him and stared at the blond woman who saved him and Bakura. He looked confused at the woman, his heart pounding hard in his chest. Ryou was about to say something when the bear gave a powerful shove, the RV fell to it's side. The things that stopped the bear from getting inside fell where the other's had fallen. Ryou widened his eyes as he saw the heavy things making thier way towards them.
Bakura, Seto, Yami, and Marik all tried to hold the things in place. Joey and Malik helped by slowly moving them to another side. Ryou looked up just as the bear clawed it's way through the now opened or ripped off door. Everyone's eyes widened when the bear appeared right in front of them ready to kill.
Midnight: There you go another chapter. Hope you all like it.
Wolf: The bear will eat them. -gets hit- j/k. T^T
Psychotic: Next time on Tear Drop of Love:
"Alright, you guys all get to come home with me, i will take care of everything." Mai smiled at them.
"You heard that you guys," Marik smirked at his other look-a-like. "You get to live with us,"
"Thank you," Ryou bowed showing his gratitued. Joey, Malik, Yugi and Noah did as well.
"Alright, Bakura go get ready for your-" Mai was cut off.
"Bakura are you ready. We still need to do one final shoot, it's for this Summer's line." Sara said clutching Bakura's arm.
Ryou felt funny all of the sudden, his chest began to hurt at the sight of her clutching Bakura's stronger arm. He looked away, so no one will notice the hurt look he was showing. He stared at all the equipment for the shoot. His eyes catching something from the corner of his eye. Marik was staring at him, he was giving Ryou a look as if to go beat the life out of Sara. Ryou just shook his head with a smile, he will never hit a girl, or in Sara's case a lady. Now Joey and Malik on the other hand, they would love to if they find said lady annoying.
Midnight: I hope everything came out alright, my computer keeps freezing on me while I was typing. I hope there aren't any errors, not like I'm th best writer...-.-u REVIEW please. Take care. :D
