Chapter 22: Identity and Heritage
When the two vampires teleported into their room, they were still in their costumes. Ryou fell from the ceiling and huffed when she collided with the bed.
"Oof!"
Bakura on the other hand, simply bounced down and immediately started getting rid of any suspicious items.
The webs of the room disappeared as the shadows signaled Bakura that there was someone coming.
Cursing under his breath, he didn't have the time to peel off his mask before the door opened and the Pharaoh waltzed in.
"Where have you been." He hissed at the male.
Looking at his attire, the young Pharaoh inquired, "..And what are you wearing!?"
His scream awoke the others and caused the once sleeping boy wonder to come out of his room.
Rubbing his drowsy eyes, Dick only walked out to see the costumed man being scolded by the Goth male while the Egyptian duo stood smirking at the scene. Kaiba was as disinterested as a block of wood, he was holding up Jou, who looked as though she was going to collapse at any moment. Yugi was yawning and stumbling around. The smallest female and the blonde seemed to be the only two who were as sleepy as him.
Marik stood straight as an arrow with a crazed face, he was holding Malik like a stuffed bear while she laughed maniacally at the Albino.
By now the two were sneering at each other, Bakura was shaking in rage and Yami's body was stiff. In a split second they both punching the other. The mask was off and Yami's lip was busted.
Ryou, still dressed as Maat, calmly stepped out of her room and jumped in between them, catching the second pair of punches. Her green eyes were dim and her small hands shook from the force of the fists, her friends stood in surprise. Malik was no longer laughing, Marik's jaw dropped, Yugi and Jou woke up and and Kaiba was baffled before he fixed his features to look as if he was bored.
Bakura growled while Yami spluttered in surprise from the unexpected intervention.
Before anything else could occur, a voice stopped them. It froze their mind and they all simultaneously turned to see the man.
"What is going on here."
Bakura and Ryou immediately stepped back as his stare shifted to them. They hoped he would skip over their outfits but Bruce's grey eyes narrowed.
Sooner than they thought possible, all of them were in the living room.
"Explain." He glared at them.
Ryou and Bakura exchanged looks before Bakura explained that he was a Egyptian Thief who was locked away in a gold Millennium item. He took out the Ring and should the man this.
Ryou later continued, speaking of the death of her sister, who caused her to abandon her powers because of the trauma, and missing mother, whom she just recently saw. She told of how her father found the item and had given it to her in hopes that she would want to re-learn about her abilities.
And after a brief talk, Bakura informed Bruce of their clan, that they were of vampire blood, which shocked both friends and hosts.
"?!" The teen group exclaimed.
"Cool!" Dick was bouncing in excitement, running up to Ryou.
She just blushed at the attention, "Well... You guys are too!" She countered before covering her mouth, eyes wide.
/..Oh no! I wasn't supposed to tell them..!/
" .. what?!" Questioned Malik and Jou.
Nodding slowly, Ryou watched the girls process while Yami and Marik seemed to pale. Yugi and Kaiba were in just plain shock, staring openly.
"Yeah. Yugi because she is connected to the Pharaoh, Malik because of the Ishtar Clan, Kaiba is Yami's reincarnated cousin, and Jou is his mate." Bakura's voice cut through the air, bringing them out of the hypnosis they seemed to be in.
It was silent as the Gothamites and Millennium holders observed one another.
With a heavy sigh, Bruce stood and practically ordered the excited ward to go to bed.
Bidding them goodnight, he left the teens, to brood in his own room.
After a few minutes, the magic users all went to bed.
