Hi, Wolfairer here. I know I haven't updated this in a while, but I have been really busy with coursework and college and recently I have been down a lot and didn't really want to write this. Anyway here you go and I hope you enjoy it. Warning this chapter has Thiefshipping, swearing and character death.

Bakura POV

I decided to let the bastard take the firstmove. After all I wanted him to think he would have a chance to win.

Mariku's soulless pits glared at me and started to make his way into the centre of the darken room.

"Bakura, just give up all ready. You have no chance to leave here with my Hikari, so just leave, and keep your pathetic body in good nick. After all you want to look beautiful for your next fuck toy after Marik, Don't you?"

"That's not the case here, I would never leave Marik, especially not with a psycho like you, and anyway I would never touch anyone, but Marik, and he knows it too."

Mariku started to laugh out loud and looked towards me with a sadistic smile across his face. "So you wouldn't touch anyone else, but you didn't mind being touched do you?"

I glared back at the other yami and snapped back. "Don't bother trying to get under my skin Mariku. It won't work."

Again the other Yami started to laugh, then he looked towards Marik. I turned slightly so that I could see the ex-tomb keeper too, but in a way that Mariku didn't leave my eyesight. Marik was looking at me with confusion slipping out of his beautiful eyes. I quickly realise that his plan is to upset my lover, instead of me. I quickly snap my head back to see Mariku taking a step forward.

"I mean the way you were screaming and asking me for more, it makes methink you prefer me to my little Hikari over there."

With that I saw red and with the help of the Millenium Ring's power, I slamed the tanned yami back into the cold stone wall again. I then started to yell. "You sick bastard! You just tortured me and tried to make me stop from returning to save Marik. What we did was not sex, it was you trying to bully and make me feel small under you."

The other Yami that was after my lover quickly stood up and held the Millenium Rod, which was pointing towards me. Suddenly I started to glow yellow and then a burst of pain ran through my body. It felt like I was being ripped apart by the glow. I ended up falling onto my knees due to the pain coursing through my body.

I tried to access the Millenium Ring to stop this insane pin going through me, but I wasn't able to. All I could heard was Mariku's insane laugh, so I lifted my head slightly so I was able to see the other, who was staring down at me with his eyes glowing a blood red colour.

"Mariku, that is enough!"

Mariku's gaze suddenly left me, and this caused me to stop glowing and the pain to stop. I turned my head slightly and saw that Marik had somehow got to his feet and was staring at his Yami. Then he slowly took a step forward.

"Marik, don't-" I started to say, but I was cut off by my boyfriend.

"It's fine Bakura. Mariku, please if you have a shred of goodness in you, please just let me go. I don't wish to stay here and I know deep down, you are just doing this to try and make me happy, but please, just stop. You are not helping anyone, not you and especially not me."

Mariku, listened to every word that my lover had to say, with a sadden look on his dark skinned face. Suddenly that look turned to anger and the glow of yellow that was around my body was back, but this time around Marik's body.

"You think that I did all of that so that you could just tell me you didn't want it and for me to just let you go?! Well if I can't have you, no one can!" Mariku yelled out.

Then the light around Marik started to get stronger and much brighter, making it hard to look at. However I just could take my eyes off it. Then the worse thing happened, Marik let out a blood curdling scream, it seemed to want to break me apart. I finally lost it again due to my world being in so much pain.

I got back up on my wobbly feet and started to use the Millenium Ring's power again. "Diabound! I summon you!"

With that a creature came rushing out of my body. It was a grey coloured demon that had horns on its head with what were like bat wings on its back. Instead of legs the creature had a snake's head and neck, which started to hiss.

Mariku heard the noise that my ka was making and he turned slightly to see it. Suddenly the glow around Marik disappeared and Mariku was now facing me and my mighty beast fully, with a hint of consern in his eyes. All I did was smile towards him and gave an order to my ka. "Take him Diabound."

With that Diabound left my side and coiled its snake half around Mariku. All Mariku did in return was smile and he stated. "At least you won't me able to keep Hikari for yourself anymore."

With that Diabound's head striked and slowly started to eat my lover's Yami whole. I was desperate to run over to Marik and make sure that he was alright, but I knew the risks that could happen if I was unable to control my ka properly. When I was sure that Diabound had eaten the Mariku snack, I called him back into my body, which made me feel like I was whole again.

With that done I quickly made my way to where my lover was laying. I saw that Marik wasn't moving at all and fear started to set in my heart. I bent down next to him and looked at my lover. I placed my hand gently on his tanned cheek, with my heart slowly starting to ache.

Finally, Marik slightly moved his head so that he was looking up at me. I sighed in relief and gently said his name. My lover just looked up at me and gave me a sad smile and he whispered out. "I'm sorry, Bakura. I th-think this is it for me."

I looked at him in dread, he could say things like that. I finally defeated his darker side, so there was no need for him to be worried. Marik just couldn't give up now. We came so far together. "Don't talk like that. You will be fine. I will get you what medicine you need and you will live. You can't give up on me now Marik, I love you."

Again all Marik did was smile at me and spoke to me. "Bakura, please, I know when you are lying to me."

Suddly I heard footsteps coming down the hall way and, I turned slightly to look, but Marik place one of his cold hands onto my boiling cheeks. "Bakura, I'm truly sorry, but this is goodbye."

With that said Marik closed his eyes and his hand fell from my red cheek and hit the sand coloured stones. I was unable to keep myself together any longer, I let tears fall for my burning eyes, I grabbed Marik and started to move forwards and backwards with my lovers body in my arms. All I did was cry, that was all I could do.

By the way there will be one more chapter for this story and then it is finished. Please R and R.
