Chapter 10

The Assassins of the Underworld

I landed on the ground as Jonouchi and Marquis looked at me if they have been waiting for a while. Jono muttered 'love' and Marquis shook his head with a smile. I got up as I glared at them; they were listening to my conversation. I hope they didn't get all of it; the part where I would lock up all of my powers and not come back. Then again if they did Jono would have me in a headlock not letting me go; putting some sense into me. So they must of have just caught the tell end of it when they notice I was gone.

We began to walk through the Demon city; I hadn't been there in a while and notice all of the evil staring the full Demons were giving me. I didn't say anything I just kept going. There weren't a lot out then again it was night here as well just sometimes it's hard to tell with the lava around. I mean you can tell it's dark but it's like dim light; like right when the sun is about to disappear.

I stopped to let Marquis lead to where we are going. We took a left turn, than a right, a left, right, a right again, and then went down an alley way. Marquis knocked on the door that was on the side of the building in the alley way. Then there was a noise and then there was a hole in the door where only the Demon's or half Demon's eyes could be seen.

"Password?" I heard the guy say; there was music playing in the background as well.

Marquis cleared his throat."The Assassins of the Underworld aka 4789AY Marquis." That is a lot to remember; I thought.

The door opened; I noticed he was a Half Demon. His hair was black with red streaks. He wore Camo t-shirt and black cargo pants. He turned to look at me and shook my hand. "So you're Yami Motou." He said with a huge smile from ear to ear. I just nodded my head.

I could tell out of the corner of my eye that Marquis knew that I was a little confused."This is Takahashi Bishamon."

"Hello Bishamon, your name means Japanese god of war right?" He nodded.

"Also Yami he is the bodyguard for our hide out here." I nodded as we walked in.

I looked around the place, there was more Half Demons then there were full Demons. They didn't seem to notice us so I was glad. There was a D.J over by the corner playing some kind of music that I wasn't used to. The Half Demons and Full Demons were talking at different tables also eating, dancing, drinking some or getting their future told by a Full Demon it looked like. I couldn't tell with all of the Demons/Half Demon being in a clomp. All of them looked like they were having a good time 'till the door slammed behind us. All of their heads snapped toward our direction. Some of the Full Demons looked surprised to see me. The Half Demons were excited that I was there. It was dead silent, I didn't like it.

The one that was telling them their future looked at me. Her hair was purple, her eyes were blue, and she wore a skit with a purple tank top. "Motou Yami or Yami Motou. I'm Lexus Barnes. I'm from America; my power is to see the future or certain Full and Half Demons. I tried seeing your future without you but it's hard. Please sit." She patted the spot in front of her but I didn't move. I guess she could tell that I didn't trust her. Lexus sighed. "Please Yami it's bugging me not to see the end of the war."

I looked over at Marquis."Yami she was the one that told us about the war coming and we got on it right away. She saw me on the good side in the first place in this war and she knew that I didn't like the leader. Now here I am." He said with hand gestures.

I shook my head."No offence but I don't like other Demons knowing my future. I already had it done once by a woman Demon before I got out of High school and so far everything that she told me was true...Well I think. She put it different lines though; she also said that I will go through things a Half Demon would never do. Then she was off; I really hate it when someone knows you when you don't know all about your own self. Sorry but I can't do that." I never told anyone this not even Jono. I looked over at him and he was surprised by this; not a lot just a little.

She laughed."I knew you might say that. That is the smart thing to do Yami. Everyone in this room had their future told by me. You learned from your first mistake, I was just testing you." I rolled my eyes but I still bet that she still wants to know the war though.

I walked over there and sat down; all eyes were on me."I know you still want to see the future but you must tell me something first."

She looked at me weirdly."How did you know that?"She questioned.

I knew it was hard to tell of a future teller's emotion. "It's written all over your face. I don't know how to explain it."

She nodded."Ask me whatever you want."

"Haruhiko was a little boy when he got his future told wasn't he?" I could tell she was confused by this; so were the rest. She gave a nod so that I could go on. "Well if you were wondering it's because the first fortune teller that I went to said something about it."

Her eyes lit up."Bahiti Mubarak. She is the best fortuneteller in the world. Bahiti, her first name means fortune in Egyptian as well. She is and was the only one to ever tell of Haruhiko's future. She didn't like what she saw; what's happening now is what she saw. She told us that there might be one Half Demon getting in his way," She looked at me straight in the eye. "And that's you." She pointed a claw/finger at me." She couldn't see everything of his future which is weird for us. She didn't tell him much hoping that his future would change, but it didn't. What did she tell you of you?"

I thought for a moment."She really didn't tell me much about me like I said. This is the way she put it. 'Yami Motou your life will be easy but hard. Your plans sometimes might go wrong but you will go through something that no Half Demon will ever do.'" I said trying to mimic her voice. "Then she ran off."

Lexus laughed at my mimicking."Do you believe on what she said and do you believe that this is true?"

I thought about the answer."Well I feel like what she said is true. Like the easy part I have done but going through with killing humans and trying to be Haruhiko's right hand man to kill him was hard and my plans got ruined. Also I'm in love with a human but I don't know if that what she meant by Half Demon will ever do."

She cocked her head to the side. I put my elbows on the table as I rested my head on my hands.

"I can see were your getting at. I don't know what she meant by that either. I can tell the way she put it that she couldn't tell your future either; not very well. Maybe a little bit more then Haruhiko's."

I looked at her if she was growing two heads. "How do you know this?"

She laughed. "Something you don't know then. Well usually if you already had your fortune told then we ask you on what they said. We can usually tell if they saw a lot or a little the way they word it."

That is really interesting just I don't know how they do it. Ugh, I guess because they have the same power.

"Now may I please see your hand?"

I looked at her hand then at mine. I smirked. "I only will let you see my hand if you only go as far as the war. No where farther. Got it?"

She smiled. "Alright Yami." She took my hand and closed her eyes. It felt like forever; when she started to read my future. Her eyes closed tighter if she was going through pain. I looked at the clock on the wall and noticed it had been thirty minutes. The other full and Half Demons either were walking around, sitting down and talking, or still watching us. Finally she let go of my hand.

She sighed.

"I cannot see your future very well." I could feel eyes all on me and her again.

"What did you see?" I asked. I looked at Marquis with his mouthed opened ready to say that for me but I beat him to it.

She put her fingers to her head."It's complicated." I crossed my arms and leaned back into the chair were the legs on it went up in the air."Fine," She said." Well I couldn't see much of the war but I did see some things that will be happening pretty quickly. Also you will be facing the leader but I don't know who wins."

I put the chair down and put my head on the table. I really wanted to hit it my head on it so hard so I could pass out but I didn't."Why can't you fortunetellers ever tell me the straight story?!" I asked rather harshly into the table.

She laughed at me."Because were not allowed to." I really wanted to punch this female Demon in the face."Besides, you are to lead us through this war though."

I shook my head. "No I'm not. I can't lead a whole army...Can I?"

Lexus stood up and walked over to Marquis. "Yes you can my dear. Even though you are Half you're the only one that is strong enough. You have red veins; your power is to kill people easily. I also know that you want revenge against us Full Demons specially your Father."

I stood up really in a bad mood; I felt my blood starting to boil. "One: You do not call me dear. Two: Just because I'm strong, have red veins, and my power doesn't mean I'll help. Three: Just because I want revenge against Full Demons doesn't mean all. Four: Do not mention my Father!" I yelled at her face. I heard Marquis say clam down but it didn't register very well, only enough to keep me from using my powers against her.

"I'm sorry," She said softly."I didn't know that part would affect you that bad if I said it."

I was glaring at her now. "Sorry is all you can say. I don't like it when people or Demons say something about your revenges against someone. That's their own thoughts and not yours. So next time keep your mouth shut. I don't like it." I looked around the crowd that watched this. "Who hear doesn't like other Demons to know you have for revenge?" Most of the Full and Half Demons raised their hands. I looked at the fortuneteller again."See I'm not the only one."

She looked down to the ground."I'm really sorry."

"It's alright, just don't do it again. I'll be leader here I guess but I'm not taking orders from anyone else and if anyone wants to leave now since I'm leader you may." Nobody moved."Alright. We need a plan on getting Shizuka; Jonouchi's little sister from Haruhiko has her." Everyone either nodded or gasped."Does anyone have anything to say before I begin?"

Marquis stood beside me."I do, I already know where she is in his place. Jonouchi, Theodore, and me will go and get her." I nodded and looked to see who this Theodore was. I saw him get up; a Half Demon, with reddish, blondish hair. He wore blue jeans and a white t-shirt."Okay if you have a plan Marquis but why wasn't I in there?"

Marquis put his hand on my shoulder and laughed. "Because we need you here to plan for the war and help get more Half and Full Demons here." I nodded as they ran out the door. Once the door shut with a slam I asked for a pen and paper to start out with planning.

Anzu's Pov

I sat there as the rain kept pouring down onto my skin. I felt alone, cold, and darkness. I don't know how I could love this Half Demon and Half Human; specially so quickly. It's like in that short of time that I can't live without him. What happens if he does die? Would I kill myself to be with him? If he does survive I will hug him and kiss him till death.

I got up and walked to the tree and tried to find whatever they went through; there was nothing. I leaned my back against the tree and slid down. My bottom touched the wet muddy ground. I brought my knees up to my chest and wrapped my arms around them; I put my head on my knees and cried. It wasn't fair; why couldn't they find another Half Demon to go and beat what's his face. Couldn't they just get a Full Demon?

I felt no more rain and I looked up to see Hondo and Miho above me with an umbrella. Miho bent down to my level.

"Anzu we've been looking all over for you. Right before they left you disappeared. Why here?" She asked in her delegate voice.

I sniffed. "I wanted to say bye to Yami alone really. I caught him right before he left." I said barely above a whisper. I didn't feel like talking or getting up at the moment either. I just wanted to sit there till he came back; my friends had another Idea though.

Honda tired to pick me up but I resisted."You're going to get sick out here if you don't come with us." Honda said till trying to pick me up but I pushed him away.

I heard Miho sigh. "Anzu please. I know you don't want to miss dance tonight." I lighten up just a bit. I let Honda pick me up and carry me back to my house.

I don't know why but dancing is just my down fall. If you say dance I'm right there. I don't care if I'm sick to the world; hurt, or anything else, dancing is my cure. Honda put me down right outside the front door. I didn't know that it was that quick that we got there.

We walked in as Miho followed me upstairs. "Anzu I need to ask you something." I just kept walking. All I wanted to do was get into dry cloths and get into bed till it is time for me to go. I took off all of my wet cloths and put Tinkerbelle PJs on. I felt like a little kid when I wore these but those were the best moments in my life. I smiled at the thought; me, mom and dad used to watch those all the time when I was sick or just wanted to watch them. Once this is all over I need to speak with them. I hadn't since I came back to Domino.

I felt a light tap on my shoulder; I wiped around to see Miho standing there. "Sorry to interrupt your thoughts or day dreaming but I still have that question." She waited for moment then spoke again."Are you sure you are making the right choice?"

I knew what she was talking about. She worries about me so much. It's nice to have a friend like that. "Well even though I feel in love with him real quickly and I don't know why... I might or might not being in the right choices but I think I really did make a right choice this time."

She nodded at what I meant. "That's all I needed to know."She said."Also you don't look so great maybe you should go to sleep." Then she was out.

I slipped into the bed and put the covers over me. I did feel a little bit bad since I've been in the rain but I didn't feel like going to sleep; not just yet. I know I have made a lot of bad choices when it came to guys in my life. The last bad choice was the worst. I sighed at the memory. We went on a date just like any other couple. I only dated him for two weeks and I liked him a lot but for some reason he wanted me to like him more. We were walking home (well to my house to drop me off.) My friends were close by well Honda was since I saw him but he looked like if he was trying to get himself a date(of course that never happened.). The next thing I knew he pushed me into the ally way. He said he wanted to talk to me and of course my naive self said 'Okay'. He pushed me against the wall and started to kiss me. I pushed him off and asked 'What are you doing?'. I wasn't happy when he said that he wanted to have some fun. I knew what that meant and tried to get away. He pulled out a pocket knife and I screamed when he sliced my arm. He told me that I was to pretty and he needed me. I didn't want to do what we wanted to me to do. He made me get on my knees and do something and then he tired to rip my shorts off when Honda came and punched him to the ground and beat the leaving crap out of him. That's when I notice Otogi asking me if I was alright. I didn't tell him anything just shake. I was out of it for weeks because of that. Ever since then I've been on my guard around guys but Yami is different I know he is. I know he won't do anything like this if I didn't want it.

I felt my eyes drooping then it was dark.

I opened my eyes to see darkness all around me. I felt the ground under me with my hands and it felt solid rock. I got up; then the world spun me around till I felt lips on my lips. I pushed the guy away and notice it was the same guy that I dated last. I tried to punch him in the face but his hand came over mine and over powered me. He slammed me against the wall; tears started to run down my face as he forced a kiss on me again.

Then I felt his lips go way and looked up to see a Demon; with red skin; blood red eyes like Yami's; his hair all wild like Yami's. Then I notice it was him. I ran to him and wrapped my arms around him giving him a kiss. He told me nothing like that will happen again; not while he was around. I laughed then we kissed again. Then he disappeared like a big boom without the sound.

I looked around for him. I had to find him. I needed him so bad. Then I saw fire around me. I backed away from the heat till I was right in the middle. I wanted to scream but I couldn't fine my voice. I was laughing one minute but now I'm not. What was up with that? I asked myself. Then I heard this cruel laugh. I couldn't see the person but it angered me. It must have been that one Demon Yami and Jonouchi were talking to over the phone because that's what this laugh sounded like."Yami is very foolish...You better be careful about him or he might let me kill you if he lets his guard down around you."I heard him say.

"Where are you, you coward?!" I yelled back at him.

"Well you don't need to know who I am because I'm going to kill you."He said as I felt something go right through my back all the way through my stomach. I was so shocked that I couldn't say a thing. I felt my life going away out of me. I dropped to my knees as I heard laughter still...

I felt my body beginning to shake. My eyes open to see Miho looking at me worriedly. She stopped shaking me when she saw my eyes opened.

"Are you all right?" She asked my quietly.

"Yeah why?" I was confused on why she would ask me that...Was I talking in my sleep again? I bet I was because it was when I slept over at her house tons of times when we were in high school and when I have nightmares I usually talked in my sleep or screamed at the least.

She sat beside me on the bed."I came in here to make sure you were alright and I heard you talking in your sleep. I knew you were having a nightmare by your words and your face. So I tried to wake you up for the past five minutes and I finally did, or you just ended your dream."

I got up and looked at my alarm clock. '5:05 pm' it said. I couldn't have been a sleep that long have I? Miho must have known what I was looking at."Yeah you've been asleep that long. You only have an hour before you go to work." I sighed.

I walked into the bathroom to get myself ready. I took a warm shower; brushed my teeth and my hair; I got dressed in to my pantyhose, my black leotard on, and a skirt. I grabbed my Pointe shoes on my dresser to take with me to work. I went down stairs to see all of my friends, I hoped what had happened earlier at the tree was just a dream but he wasn't there.

I shook my head and went to the kitchen to eat before I left. I made me a sandwich and ate it. It was my favorite too; ham, cheese, mustard, pickles, and tomatoes. As I finished eating I put my shoes on at the door and I told all my friend's I'll be back later.

Marquis Pov

I looked up ahead and saw the building where they were keeping Shizuka at. I took a glance to see Jonouchi and Theodore right behind me. We landed right next to a tree near the building but far enough were nobody could see us if they were to walk out of the building. We didn't talk since we already went over my plan right before we got here.

I kept looking at the building; if Lexus was right right about now should be a Demon walking out. I looked at my clock on my right wrist then I looked back at the door and there came a Demon out. I laughed silently to myself. This is going to be a piece of cake. I thought as I waved Jonouchi and Theodore to follow me.

As we got closer I knew the next thing Lexus said she was unable to see it clearly since she couldn't have the Demon's hand to see it she said that he was talking to someone. I saw the Demon as we got closer but then what surprised me was that it was Haruhiko. I quickly hid behind another tree with Jonouchi and Theodore right on my tail.

I looked at Theodore."Theo do you think you can use your powers to hear what they are saying?" He nodded.

It took a minute or so and Haruhiko left and the other Demon went inside.

"Haruhiko said that he wanted him to watch the girl on the 16th floor. Then Haruhiko left because He had to do something or get someone to do something for him. I couldn't understand that line because he said it really low."Theodore said.

I rolled my eyes. Of course he didn't say. "Okay, thanks Theo. Also keep that up when we get inside." I looked over at Jonouchi and he was looking at Theodore amazingly."He has the ability to hear things from a distance."

"Oh, I knew that." Jonouchi said trying to cover that up. I laughed.

I looked around again and made sure no one was there. I stood up and walked toward the front door it wasn't locked but no one was there. I tried to remember if there wasn't anyone going to be here or if there hiding. Lexus said something about there was a Demon on the other side. As I opened the door I got in a battle stance. There was the Demon coming out from his hiding place. He attacked me but I dogged and touched him. I focused on my power. He froze right there.

I looked at Jonouchi and he seemed to get the message as he started to put a force field around him. I let go real fast so I wouldn't be able to get stuck in there with the Demon. Jonouchi lifted him up in the air and threw him at the wall making a hole in it and the Demon was dead or either pasted out from the impact.

I started to run because it wouldn't be long till other Demons get down here to see what was going on. Theodore told me that there were sounds of footsteps everywhere. I stopped and looked up to see a vent up above. I flew up there and took it off and Theodore, Jonouchi, then me went in there. I put the vent back as I looked through the lines of the vent to see Demon's running to the direction where we came from.

I barely got between Theo and Jono to get to the front. I lead them to the other side of the vent to the other side of the hallway. I took the vent thing off and landed in a hallway; there wasn't any sounds that I could hear or Theo. As Theo and Jono were getting down I tried to remember again what Lexus had said to me. It clicked; it should be a clear way up from hear besides the two guards at the top guarding Shizuka.

We ran up the 15 flight of stairs; we had to stop a couple of times because of Jonouchi needing a break. Even Theodore asked why weren't we just using our wings but it would be a little more challenging and that's all I would say. I didn't want to tell them that there were flying motion detectors on the stairs. I don't know why they put them here but they did.

As we came up a Corner of the 16th floor I looked around it to see the two guards there. I motion Jonouchi to come here with my finger/claw. I pointed toward the two guards. He used his power to throw them into each other to make them pass out long enough.

We stepped over them and I saw Shizuka. She was tied well strapped to a chair; she was topless and pant-less and I heard Jonouchi growl. I walked over to the leader's desk and found the button and released her. She jumped in her brother's arms as Jonouchi put his jacket around her. I found some of her cloths and gave them to her.

"Marquis," I heard out of the blue. " There coming up here." I heard Theodore say. I looked at the window and thrust my fist threw it to make it break. Jonouchi flew out with his sister, then me and Theodore behind me. I flew behind the tree to let them go ahead of me. I looked back at the building and they saw the window and flew out but not toward the direction we took. I started to fly again toward Jonouchi's home.

End of His Pov

Anzu's Pov

As I walked out of the Dance studio it was dark; 10:30pm to be exacted. I was tired; depress; and I wanted someone warm to hold me, more of a certain Half Demon.

As I walked down the street I felt someone watching me. I turned around and no one was there. I kept walking forward and it felt like someone was still there. I took a glance with the corner of my right eye and saw something walking. I hurried up my paste. I took a glance again and that thing quickly hurried as well. I was now running and so was it. As I kept on taking glances I saw wings on him now as he started to run faster than an Olympian.

Then there it was; a Demon right in front of me. I ran right into him as he caught me roughly with his hand. He looked a lot like Yami but different. His hair is the same but his eyes were yellow and I could tell he wasn't very nice. Also his skin was red and all of his Demon body was out. He probably wasn't half Human either.

"Where do you think you're going?" He asked.

"Home!" I said trying to get out of his grip.

He laughed."The names Jouichirou."He said as if there was nothing going on."I'm here on my leaders orders."A cruel smirk appeared on his face."I was sent here to get you and use you to get Yami to us." I tried to get out of his grip but he was laughing harder now."Let's go so I can get paid." I heard him say as he picked me up and started to run really fast.

I thought we were going to crash into something till he stopped. It was only minutes to get to the tree were Yami, Jono, and Marquis disappeared. He walked to it and it became dark.

End of Her Pov

12345678910

I sat there exhausted in Jono's house. We moved so it would be obvious that we were having some kind of party and not hiding something. Jono, Marquis and Theodore came back an hour ago with Shizuka. She was in really bad shape. I was worried about her but Marquis said she would be fine.

I didn't get one thing planned besides help call Demon's and Half Demon's that were on our side on my pager. I wanted to just go to my own little world till I sensed something that wasn't right. Some of the Demon's and Half Demon's notice my face change into a confused one. The sent was so familiar that it bugged me. It couldn't be Anzu could it?

Shizuka came down and notice my uneasiness. She touched me and I relaxed.

"What's wrong Yami?" She asked and everybody was quiet well not everybody but some of the room that was listing.

I moved her hand off of me and walked out the door. I knew it was her I just had to concentrate but how did she get here. I was now running. This wasn't enough to get there to her in time if something happened. My eyes grew a blood red and I turned into my Demon form. I was now flying. I was flying so fast that it only took me a couple of minutes to get where she was. I saw her she was with my brother; Jouichirou. I growled. He wasn't letting go of her and she was trying to get out of his grip.

'Smack!' I heard. He slapped her; I growled. I jump right in front of him and saw her crying. He was surprised to see me at first but it didn't take him long to calm down. "Sorry little brother but I didn't know this was your bitch."

I stepped forward but he put a claw to her neck. "Nah-uh-uh, little brother. You don't want to take another step or I might just kill her."

I was stuck. In the corner of my eye I saw Marquis and Jono on the street running towards us and saw us. Jono's mouth was opened and Marquis's expression was confusing.

"A audience. Just what I wanted."

"Jouichirou let her go now." I said deadly.

He laughed."Why? This is so much fun seeing you mad. I really never saw you mad before." He said laughing.

As he was laughing Jono put force field around him and missed Anzu. Anzu fell but before she fell to the ground I caught her. She was crying; she looked at me in the eyes and smiled. I smiled to as I brushed her tears away and being careful of not scratching her. I bent down and put her lips to mine. I heard a cough and pulled back. Jouichirou's arms were folded with a mad look. I got up with Anzu in my arms and pointed my head backwards. She looked behind her and walked over to Jono and Marquis.

Jono realized the force field and Jouichirou tried to cut me with his claws but I dogged and stabbed my claws right through his stomach. He pulled back real fast; blood started to pour everywhere on the street and his clothing. He looked at me and landed on his knees coughing up blood. "That's what you get messing with Anzu." I said so deadly that I lost my temper and sliced his head off with my claws. I heard a gasp behind me and I knew that was Anzu.

I turned around and turned back into my human form."Anzu." I said quietly. She looked up from Marquis's shoulder and ran to me. I wrapped my arms around her as I landed on my knees with her. I kissed her long and passionately. I felt a poke to my shoulder and I let her lips go of mine and looked at Jono dangerously. He looked scared.

"What?" I asked.

"I think we better go and get her back to the human world." I looked at her and nodded.

She shook her head."I don't want to go back. I want to stay with you."

"It's too dangerous."

"Please?" I heard her whisper into my chest.

I felt so bad. I didn't want to let her go so I held her tighter to me."Jono I think she can stay as long as we keep a good eye on her. I don't think she wants to leave Yami. And besides; if we just put her back up there then what happens if one of Haruhiko's Demon's comes and gets her again? It would be best if she stayed here." said Marquis.

She looked at me and kissed my lips lightly. I picked her up and put her on her feet. She was confused at what I was doing. I turned into my Demon form again."Climb on Anzu this is quicker and we need to get your sent somewhere more safe."

She climbed onto my back as we took off toward the sky.
