Previously on Lust for Blood

After the older teen left with Yugi, he thought that the police would come before the leader woke up. He was wrong.

He wasn't knocked out for long. It wasn't that powerful of a hit anyway. The leader looked around seeing that the man that hit him and is victim were gone. 'Don't worry you little brat, I will find you. And you will die!' he thought before running out of the building, laughing evilly to himself.

--

Yugi looked around, waiting for someone to answer him. Seto looked at Atemu, wondering who was going to tell him, before he left the room.

Atemu sighed, knowing that it was going to be him. He didn't want to tell him. He didn't want anyone to tell him. But now he had no choice. He had to.

"Little One—"he started, facing the smaller teen, trying to think of the words to say. "Well, you are right, there is something different about us." He said, looking at his friends.

Yugi started, wondering what it could be. He looked at Yami waiting for him to continue. 'Why me?' he thought. "Well… Yugi… "

--

The police were still at the school, thinking of how they were going to tell the teens, what they had discovered.

They left the building, with a look of sadness on their features.

Joey looked up and saw them, before he ran over to them, hope clearly in his eyes.

"So… where is he? Is he okay? Can we see him?" he said, questions coming left and right, out of his mouth.

Tristan, Ryou, Malik, and Tea all came over with the same look in their eyes, hoping that the policemen's expressions were a front.

"I'm sorry kids, no one in there. The place is empty. We know that there were people in there, because we see a pool of blood on the ground. We think that he got away and that the leader went after him. We hope, really. We will make a missing report to the station and have a search party looking for your friend. As for your other friend, I'm not sure where he went. We don't know if he was even in there. There is no evidence to say that he was." The leader of the squad told the worried group of friends. He had brown hair, blue eyes, and looked tall, but slim.

The group's eyes went wide with shock. As if what they were hearing was a cover up to what they really want to hear. They wanted to hear that Yugi was okay. And that they could see him. See him smiling and tell them he was alright and that there was nothing to worry about.

"What do you mean? We saw Yami go in after Yugi ourselves. So he had to be in there." Tristan told the officer.

"Well… kid we didn't see any traces of him. I'm sorry. But don't worry we will do a search for your missing friends. We will find them." The officer told him, before walking back to his car.

He stopped and turned around, looking at the group of friends. He could see the worry on the faces. How much they missed their friend. He was determined to find the missing teens and bring them back to the group of friends.

"Hey, kids!" he yelled to get their attention. They looked over to see what the officer wanted to say to them.

"My name is Detective Chris Carter. I will call and let you know if we find anything about your friends." He told them, before going back to his car and driving off, the rest of the squad doing the same.

The group of friends stood their, feeling helpless. They didn't know what to do to find their friend, they could only think of going home and pray that they would see their friends again. And that's just what they did.

--

The leader left the school knowing the he was going to find his prey and when he did he was going to have fun with him. He got away the first time, and when he found him, he wasn't going to let it happen again.

He walked in the forest. He wasn't sure where he going, but he knew that he had to get away. He knew that by now, the police were at the school and that he had to hide.

They were probably looking for him and the brat. He hoped that he found him before they found him or the brat.

He kept walking, he wasn't in the mood for someone to see him, but then again, if they did, he would just kill them. It was what he did best.

He knew that he needed a good kill, but the person he wanted to kill-- the one that would satisfy his thirst of a kill--would be the little twerp that got away.

His couldn't help but laugh evilly, as he thought about what he would to the teen flashed in his mind.

--

Yami was still thinking about how he was going to tell Yugi his secret. He was too afraid that the small teen wouldn't trust him anymore. That he would be scare and runway. He would look at him different. Think of him as monster and not the sexy god he thought of him when they first met.

Yami looked at Yugi again. He had been looking around the room. To everyone except for the one he should have been looking at.

"Yugi… the truth is…." He couldn't think of what to say to him.

"Yami spit it out. What is it that you want to tell me?" Yugi told him, getting irritated that the taller teen kept stopping in mid sentence.

He looked around the room, hoping that maybe looking at his new friends would give him some clue as to what the taller teen was trying to tell him.

"Well, Yugi, I think that I better show you than tell you." He said.

Yugi looked confused. He didn't understand what he could possibly mean by that statement.

"What do you mean by that Ya--"he stopped, for before him was Yami, but it didn't look like him. He looked different.

Yugi's eyes went wide at the sight before him. Yami had fangs and his eyes were no longer crimson, but blood red, redder than blood itself.

He looked around the room hoping that there would be an explanation, but to his horror he saw that Seto, Marik, and Bakura also had fangs and their eyes looked darker than their normal eye color.

His eyes widen more, not believing what he was seeing. 'This couldn't be!' he thought, getting off the bed. 'This can't be! My new friends are—'"Vampires" he said aloud, screaming as he ran out of the room and out of the warehouse.

Atemu looked at Seto. "Go after him." He told his cousin, before he ran after his look alike.

"Yugi! Yugi! Come back! Yugi!" he called after him, he could see him, but he didn't want to use his real speed, but he knew at the rate he was going, he wasn't going to be able to catch up with him if he didn't.

--

Yugi ran. He ran as fast as he could. He could believe that his new friends were vampires. He felt so hurt. He knew that he just met them, but… why did it hurt so much? Why did he feel so betrayed by him?

He could hear a voice calling after him, but he ignored it. He knew who it was, and he didn't want to see him, talk to him, anything.

As he ran, he tripped over something. He fell and hit the ground. He saw that someone was coming closer to him, he screamed, thinking that this was the end for him.

"Yugi? Yugi, calm down it's just me." He heard a male voice say to him.

The voice came closer; he could see who it was. Yami. Yami looked the same as he did when he first met him. He looked hot when the sun was behind him, blinding him with light.

'Wow, he still looks sexy' he thought, before darkness took over his mind.

--

Yami looked at Yugi, lying on the ground. His expression was so sad. He was afraid that this was going to happen. He didn't want Yugi to be afraid of him. He wanted him to be accepted of him.

The innocent teen's eyes were closed and his breathing was shallow as if he was sleeping.

He picked the small teen up and walked back towards the hideout. He opened the door and walked back up to his room, Seto, Bakura, and Marik behind him.

"What did you do?" Bakura snapped, after Yami carefully placed the smaller teen on the bed.

Yami didn't say anything. He just went downstairs towards the kitchen. The kitchen was painted blue. There was a stove on the right side and tables on the left. The refrigerator was across from the stove.

The group of vampire followed him into the kitchen.

"Atemu what is wrong. You aren't acting like yourself. What happened?" Seto asked, concerned about his cousin.

Yami still didn't say anything. He walked over to the table and sat down, looking down at the floor.

"Atemu, what's wrong? Tell us." Marik said, worrying about his friend too.

Yami looked up, his eyes confused. "I don't know what to do." he answered.

"What do you mean?" Seto asked, of course he knew but he wanted to make sure that he was right.

Yami looked at his cousin, glaring of out frustration, knowing that he was messing with him.

"I don't know what to do about Yugi. He is in my room right now unconscious because he was scared that I was going to kill him." He told him friends, as they came closer to him, surrounding him almost, before he continued. "What I feared was going to happen, already has. He doesn't trust me anymore. I just met him, but I feel like I have known him for years. And I don't know why. I don't want him to be afraid of me." He told his friends.

The room was quiet. No one spoke after Yami's confession. No one knew what to say. If the vampire's said anything, they would blow their cover. They couldn't tell him how to solve it. He had to find out on his own.

"Man that was the sappiest thing I have ever heard you say, Atemu" Bakura said, breaking the silence, making Yami stare evilly at him. "You were once a pharaoh. Now you are acting like a bitchy nobody" Bakura continue, with an evil smirk on his face, looking at Yami.

Yami got up from this seat with a look of anger aimed at the former arrogant vampire theft.

"Shut up theft! I didn't ask for you to be so cold hearted! You don't what I am feeling!" he yelled before he stormed out of the kitchen.

"Bakura, how could you be like that? Can't you be more considerate? He is going through a tough time." Seto snapped at him, for his actions towards the once pharaoh.

"Well he was being sappy. He knows not to do that in front of me. And it is fun to piss him off." He white haired teen answer, before leaving the room also, leaving only Marik and Seto.

"Shouldn't we tell him? He is going to be really pissed off at us when he finds out that he knew and didn't tell him." Marik told Seto, who was pacing around in the kitchen.

"No, you know that. He has to find out on his own." Seto told him, before they both left the kitchen also.

--

Yami stomped upstairs. His anger flaring. "That arrogant bastard! How could he be so rude? I don't even know what id wrong with me. Maybe he is right, I am being sappy, but that still don't excuse him for being an ass." He said, before going back in his room, to check on Yugi.

He walked in the room to see that the teen was still on the bed. The feeling of familiarity coming back again, full blast, but there was something else there too. This was something that he couldn't figure it out and it was driving him crazy.

'If only I knew where I knew you from. Maybe I couldn't figure out what this other feeling is.' He thought, pushing some hair out of his face, and sitting down on the bed, but softly so that he wouldn't wake up the teen.

The smaller teen looked so cute and adorable. He loved looking at him. He was just the more beautiful person he had ever seen. He looked so innocent lying there.

He wished that he would wake up, but than he didn't. He didn't want to see the fear in the young teen's eyes again.

--

The young teen's eyes fluttered open to see where he was. The first thing he was a figure lying next to him. He could see because his eyes weren't focused enough.

He soon realized that it was Yami, the backstabbing newly discovered vampire that he was scared of. He screamed.

--

Yami saw that Yugi's eyes opened. He looked at the teen thinking that he was going to scream but he didn't. Yami had a little hope before he heard the teen lying on the bed indeed scream.

--

Yugi was trying to get up, but he couldn't. When he sat up, he felt dizzy instantly, making him fall back down to regain himself before trying again.

"Yugi calm down. Everything is fine." He heard Yami say, but he was still trying get away.

"No it's not. You're going to kill me." He said. He watched a lot of horror movies. He knew what vampires did when they had a victim. They drunk them dry and left their body somewhere in the woods.

"Yugi, I'm not going to kill you. Why would I do that? You're my friend." He told him, sweetly.

Yugi looked at him, unsurely. From the movies he watched, vampires always were friendly at first, and they got the chance, they drunk you dry.

"Yugi, I won't hurt. Never. I would never do that." He told him; try to convince the smaller teen that he meant no harm.

"But what your friends?" he asked, as he calmed down, sitting up.

"Of course, not little one. We would never hurt you." He told, softly.

"Are you sure?" he asked, innocently, trying to make himself reassured.

Before Yami could answer, the mentioned vampires ran into the room panting.

Yami looked at them, his expression saying 'what the hell?'

"Hey, mister, we should be asking you the same thing." Bakura snapped, seeing the look in his friend's eyes.

Bakura, Marik, and Seto looked all looked at the bed, to see the Yugi was awake, making them all smile.

"Well… look the kid is awake." Seto said, still smiling. He wasn't really people person, but there was something about Yugi the he couldn't but like him.

Yugi smiled at him, feeling reassured that he wasn't in any danger with them. They may be vampires, but they won't kill him.

"Guys, tell Yugi that he none of you will hurt him." Yami said, turning around to face his friends.

The vampires looked confused. "Why would we hurt him? He is part of the family after all." Bakura said. He wasn't really that much of a people person either. He got pissed off easily and it might end terribly, but Yugi was a gentle and caring person, so he had no problem with him. Besides, Yami had a liking for him, so there couldn't be anything too wrong with him.

"Yeah, he is. I know that he just met him, but he is staying here now, right? We wouldn't hurt family. Well, except for Bakura and Atemu. They are always going at it and they are even related. Atemu and Seto are. Yeah they go at it, but not like them two." Marik said, laughing. Everyone else joined in, including Bakura.

None of them like meeting new people, but the smaller teen had an aura of tenderness around him that made all of them feel comfortable. He was like a easing away, a calmness, which made them all feel relaxed.

Yugi couldn't help but smile. He looked at Yami, the familiarity feeling coming back.

'What the hell is that? This is really getting on my nerves! Why do I keep getting this feeling whenever I am around? I feel like I know him, but I don't know from where. I wish that I did. I hope that I figure it out soon.

--

Tea, Malik, Tristan, Ryou, walked around, still hoping that soon there would be a clue to find their missing friend.

They posted pictures of their friend around town, hoping that someone would help locate him. He was even on the news. Maybe that would better the possible of finding him.

But there was only so much that they could do.

Now, they were at Tea's apartment, waiting for the phone to ring. So far, nothing.

"Man dis is boring! We aren't going to find him this way!" Joey said, his anger flaring.

"Joey you need to calm down. This is the only thing that we can do. We have to leave it to the police. They know what they are doing. Let them, handle it, Joey." Tea told him, to calm him down.

"Yeah, Joey. Everything will be fine. Just keep calm. We will find both Yugi and Yami." Tristan told him.

Joey sighed in defeat. He knew they were right. "I know. I just missed him. We brightened up all of out days. He knew how to make us all happy even when we were sad" he said, looking at the floor.

Ryou sighed. He wanted his friend back just like the rest of the group, but there was nothing they could do. He would just have to sit and wait until the police somehow found him.

Malik sat on the pink couch with Ryou, holding him, to comfort him. He missed his friend. The group was really close and when something happened to one of them, the rest would be really upset. It was even worse because Yugi was the glue that sticked everyone together, without him, the group would fall apart. He was the one the picked the back up when they would fall. He was one that would help out any way he could to make them smile. Not only that, but a new edition to their group was missing too. They had to find them both.

They all sighed again. Still looking at the phone, still on the couch, waiting. Waiting for something or someone that would help them find their friends.

Moriah: Okay, that's the chapter. I hope that you guys liked it. Please review. It would mean so much to me.

Yugi: Well…. Authoress, what is going to happen in the next chapter?

Moriah: thinks Well… I don't really know. I'm winging it. I just making it up as I go along. But I think that in the next couple of chapters the leader will be there. Remember he is still trying you. Either that or get you and Yami more closer to together.

Yugi: That sounds nice. You should do that.

Moriah: I think that I will. Anyway, I need you guys to help me with something. When I had originally thought of this story, I had an idea but I have already used to for Red Roses. So I was wondering if you guys would mind me using the same idea for this story.

Yugi: Please let her know in your reviews. If you haven't read Red Roses, please read it. She don't have that many reviews for it and we would appreciate the support.

Moriah: By the way, I have recently figured out that in the prologue I said that Tea wasn't going to be in the story, that I made it so that she had moved. Sorry about that. I didn't realize that. I guess now that she is in the story and I can't take her out now.

Yugi: We know that we haven't updated Red Roses in a while, but we haven't felt like writing. We haven't got many reviews for it. We can see that many people don't like it. So we guess it will be a while before I make the next chapter.

Moriah: Thanks for reading my story. Until next time I update! :D
