Blood Love by Boogermeister
Chapter 10
Mana gave the dark green book to Mahad. "I know it wasn't your fault, Mana," he said as he flipped through the pages. "But you could have told me or Atem sooner."
"I'm sorry, but I wasscared of them coming back with the silver," Mana whimpered.
Mahad finally found the once-there page. "I should have known," he muttered. "They used the Conscious Potion. I have to tell Atem about this." He handed back the book to Mana before going off.

"My child, my precious unborn child," Atem whispered as he and Anzu laid on the bed. "Anzu, I'm sorry if I had hurt you."
"It's okay, Atem," whispered Anzu.
"But I wouldn't have hurt you if Terria hadn't cursed you," he said quietly, his hand softly caressed her stomach. "Don't worry, Terria will be punished. She won't harm you ever again." He kissed Anzu on the cheek. Just then, there was knock on the door.
"What is it, Jonouchi?" Atem called out as he sat up.
"Atem, Mahad found out who else was with Terria, involving with her plan," replied Jonouchi. "He's right here."
Atem got out of bed and walked out of his bedroom. "Who was involved in it, Mahad?" he asked after walking downstairs.
"Mana told me it was Marik and Bakura came into my lab and stole a page of the Conscious Potion, a manipulation potion," Mahad replied. Atem narrowed his eyes as he growled lowly.
"Bakura and Marik. It makes a lot of sense now," he muttered. "I'll find them and Terria. Mahad, come and help me."
"What about Anzu, Atem?" asked Jonouchi.
"Let her take refuge in your home, Jonouchi," Atem replied, smiling. "She already knows; she's right there." He pointed at Anzu, who was sitting as the top of the stairs. "Take care of her while I'm gone," he said, patting on his friend's shoulder. "I'll come back, Anzu."
"Bye, Atem," said Anzu as she waved a little. Atem and Mahad left as she walked down the stairs. "Do you think they can find Terria?" she asked.
"Of course they will," smirked Jonouchi. "Don't worry 'bout it. Come on, let's go to my place. It's not the Taj Mahal or anything--"
"That's okay, Jonouchi, let's go," smiled Anzu.

Terria stared out of the window with a scowled look on his face. "Damn it to hell, when will Atem come back?" she huffed angrily. Marik stood behind her, his tanned muscular arms wrapped around her waist as he nipped at her neck and and shoulders. "Stop it, Marik," she spat.
"But I'm so lonely, Terria," Marik purred seductively, nuzzling inn her violet hair. "Come to bed and I promise you can be on top this time."
"I don't feel like it, Marik," mumbled Terria, growing impatient at the second.
"Come on, I have needs, too. I'm tired of you acting like a bi--"
Terria turned her head and snarled, baring her fangs. Marik backed away as he growled in anger. "I see, you want to 'save' yourself for Atem one last time before we kill him," he growled lowly as he sat on the bed. "Fine, I'll find myself a girl to fuck with, human or vampire."
Terria scoffed as she turned back to the window. She saw Atem walking down the street. She grabbed her leather coat from the bed and look at Marik. "Don't be mad, Marik," she said with a small smile. "I'm doing this for us." She left the room as Marik laid on the bed.
"That's always you, Terria," he muttered as he stared at the ceiling with his hand in his pants. "You always whore yourself to get what you want."

"Atem, wait!" Terria called out as she ran up to Atem, who turned around with a apathetic glance in his eyes. "I'm glad you came back," she smiled as she reached to touch his face. Suddenly, Atem grabbed her wrist roughly. "Ow!" she yelled in pain.
"I know what you did, Terria," Atem growled lowly in anger. "I just found out what you did to my lover. Care to explain why?"
"A-Atem, I-I didn't mean--" Atem threw her to the snowy ground. He then grabbed her wings and severely dislocated them. "AAAAHHHHH!!!" Terria screamed in pain.
"Where's Marik and Bakura, Terria!?" snarled Atem. "Or do I have to slam your head against the wall!?"
"M-Marik is back at my place," Terria grunted. "I think Bakura is with his brother." Atem glared at her in disgust before walking away. Terria slowly stood up, hissing in pain. "How . . . . how did he found out?" shee questioned. "This wan't supposed to happen."

"Shizuka, don't stared at her like that," groaned Jonouchi. "You'll freak her out." Shizuka glanced at her older brother before looking back at Anzu, who was sitting on a dark grey slightly worn out couch as she slept.
"I never imagined the vampire leader would have a kid so young," Mai said quietly as she covered Anzu up with a blanket. "He hadn't been the leader for that long, only for a little over two years. It's also hard to imagine he's having a child with what we thought was our mortal enemy."
"The humans are our enemy," Jonouchi replied. "This girl Anzu is different from them; that's probably what Atem see in her and--Shizuka, quit gawking."
"Fine," sighed Shizuka as she looked away. "Have you heard of Atem yet?"
"Nah, it's been nearly four hours already," Jonouchi said as he glanced at his watch. It said 2:48 a.m.. "He and Mahad shoulda found them by now."
"Do you think Atem can control his anger?" Mai asked quietly, feeling concerned as she glanced at Anzu.
"I'm not so sure, Mai," Jonouchi replied uneasily. "After the past several weeks, it might be worse than we'll expect."

Atem grabbed Bakura by his shirt collar, forcing him to stand up. "I had warned you before, Bakura," he snarled as he glared at the pale vampire's bruised face. "You have hurted my lover with your involvement with Terria's crime. I should had killed you from the start."
"Ugh, A-Atem, you're nothing but a traitor to our kind," Bakura grunted as he sneered. Atem then pinned him to a building wall.
"Dare to say that again, Bakura!" he snarled threatenedly as his fangs lengthened. "I'll rip your fucking neck out!" But Bakura kept sneering.
"I'm just telling the truth, leader," he smirked. "You lowered yourself to love and fuck a human and even want to take care of her and this unborn half-breed in our territory. I wondered what will the rest of your loyal followers thinks of this?"
"You--"
"I just remember, who will look after my little brother, Ryou, after I died?"
"You won't die yet, Bakura," growled Atem. "You, Terria, and Marik will be spellbound in Secluded Dark Gates until I set you free." He let go of Bakura, who slumped against the wall, as soon as Mahad ran by. "Do it quickly, Mahad," he ordered. Mahad muttered a series of words before a black light shaped like a large tapeworm appeared. It coiled itself around Bakura's body, tightening as soon as the pale vampire began to struggle.
"You'll never get away with this, Atem," Bakura snarled. "Sooner or later, leader, your precious followers will turn against you, and I hope they kill your bastard child and that bitch of a human!"
"We'll see about that," Atem growled as his crimson eyes narrowed.

Terria, Marik, and Bakura are gone . . . for now. They'll come back way later in the story.
I'll update ASAP!!
