/Thoughts/

*Mink Link*

"Wait a minute…wait a minute…so you can see the future?" Malik whispered to Yugi, leaning across the table.

"Apparently," Yugi giggled as he poked at the mystery meat on the tray. The school lunches were not that great, but could anyone really claim their school's lunches as tasty? He poked the mystery meat again unsure if he should call it food, a creature, or a science project. He half expected it to roll off the plate and attack him for poking it.

"So how does it work? Can you trigger it or does it just happen on its own?" Anzu asked.

"I'm really not sure how it works. I do not know if I will ever truly have control over it. I think it just shows me what I need to see," Yugi responded placing the fork down and giving up on eating what he deemed to be a science project escaped from the chemistry lab.

Noticing his petite doppelganger was not touching the school lunch, Yami pushed his salad over to Yugi. The violet orbs glanced up into Yami's smiling bronze features.

"Go ahead, Aibou," Yami nodded.

Yugi smiled appreciatively to the crimson eyed siren as his gazed returned to the food in front of him. After taking a few large bites of the salad, he looked like a violet eyed chipmunk with his cheeks stuffed with food.

"Yugi, you may want to slow down before you choke," Anzu giggled at Yugi as he enthusiastically ate the rest of Yami's salad.

The petite siren's smile fell as he noticed how quiet the lunchroom had become, *I wonder what's going on. The lunchroom is never this quiet,* Yugi commented to Yami as he looked around. In response, the crimson orbs glided around the room trying to find out why everyone had stopped talking.

*What are they looking at, Aibou?* Yami questioned blinking at them as they all whispered and took uneasy glances in the direction of their table.

Yugi gulped, *Me, Yami. They are looking at me. Why would they do that? What's going on?*

Gen scurried over to Yugi, her blonde hair swaying behind her in a high pony tale. The sophomore pulled up a chair next to Yugi and whispered in his ear. The whisper was so soft Yugi was having difficulties hearing her as well. His violet orbs grew as wide as saucers.

He turned to face Gen, "No…that's can't be true." Yugi shook his head staring at her questioningly.

"It's true, Yugi. That is the rumor that just went through the entire school," she whispered. She bit her lip before leaning closer to him, "So….," she urged him, "Are you a siren?"

Yugi felt his heart rate quicken, /Ra! This can't be happening. How did they all find out?/ He stood from the table running out of the cafeteria followed closely by Yami.

*What's wrong, Aibou? What did Gen say?* Yami asked through their mind link. Yugi felt Yami's concern leak through the link as Yami watched Yugi pace across the empty classroom he ran into.

*They know, Yami! There is a rumor going around the whole school that I am a siren! How did that happen?* Yugi fell to his knees as his breathing came in short ragged gasps. Anzu, Bakura, Malik, Marik, Tristan, and Joey appeared in the classroom a few seconds later.

"What is going on out there man? It is chaos! Once you left everyone broke into a frenzy! They all started talking at once," Joey commented staring at Yugi's trembling from. Yami sat on the ground next to Yugi, pulling the small siren onto his lap and wrapping him in a secure embrace.

"Joey, there is a rumor going around that Yugi is a siren," Yami responded. Yugi nestled into the nape of Yami's neck; breathing in the musky scent of Yami he began to cry. His sobs sending tremors through his body.

*What am I going to do, Yami?* He asked; his tears running down his cheeks and dampening Yami's neck. His small fingers grasping at Yami's uniform.

Ryou entered the room followed by Ms. Davidson. The drama teacher knelt in front of the two tri-colored sirens, "What's going on, Yami?" The crimson eyed siren explained what had occurred a few minutes prior. The drama teacher gasped upon hearing the news. "We have to get you both out of here," she paced the length of the classroom,"How did this happen?" she asked turning to face Yugi and Yami again.

"The principal knows. Yugi went to save Gen last week from drowning. We all forgot to disable the cameras or steal the security tapes. He must have mentioned it to someone and it spread like wildfire," the baritone voice explained.

Ms. Davidson nodded, "He may have spilled the proverbial beans…but that's not the point. Right now we need to get both of you out of here and somewhere safe. Follow me." She turned pulling the door open rapidly. She stuck her head out of the door glancing down the hallway before waving the group out of the room. She pointed down the hallway to one of the side doors of the school. Bakura paused at the door looking in the direction of the office.

"Kura?" Ryou asked tilting his head to the side; his silver locks falling over his face.

"Keep going. I'll be right behind you," Bakura grunted.

Yami helped a very unsteady Yugi walk outside. A blast of cold air greeted Yugi the moment the doors opened. He inhaled deeply feeling his frazzled nerves relax a tiny bit. The school had started to feel stuffy and oppressive.

"What do we do now? Where are we going to take Yugi and Yami?" Tristan asked.

"Get!"

The group turned to see Bakura appear out of nowhere shoving the principal to the ground in front of the group. He squirmed closer towards Anzu, Joey, and Tristan; attempting to get away from Bakura as quickly as he could.

"What are you? How did we get out here?" the man whimpered.

"I thought we told you to keep your mouth shut!" Bakura snapped. Yami arched a raven eyebrow. "This worm told a few of the faculty members. A few students overheard the conversation and the rumor spread," Bakura growled his dark brown orbs fixed on the principals terrified face.

Yami squeezed Yugi's shoulders before approaching the principal, "You did what?" The crimson eyes narrowed at the man demanding he speak the truth, "Did you open your mouth when we told you not to?"

Principal Mirioka nodded his head frantically, "Yes. I'm sorry." He tugged at Tristan's pant leg, "Please don't let them hurt me."

"You are barking up the wrong tree. Yugi is like family to us. Whatever Yami and Bakura have in store for you…you deserve it," Tristan shook the man off his leg. Yugi glanced over at Yami curious to what Yami and Bakura had in store for the principal.

The electrical energy surged through Yami's veins and radiated off of his body. He could not be touched without that person receiving a jolt. His crimson eyes narrowed once more at the squirming and whimpering man in front of him. The electrical currents gathered in Yami's palms before he released them at the principal. The jolt had the man writhing in pain screaming for mercy.

"No! You did not show mercy to the one who needed it! You opened your mouth divulging a precious secret to those who had no business knowing!" Yami amplified the electrical current; charring the flesh from the principal.

*Yami, stop! He's almost dead. You don't need to keep electrocuting him,* Yugi encircled his arms around Yami's torso. The hard rage laden bronze features softening when Yugi's soft gentle voice caressed the inner reaches of his mind.

Yami ceased the electrical attack; glancing at Marik and Malik he nodded, "Enjoy your meal."

Dark lilac met excited light lilac. The two bronze Egyptians growing larger; transforming into their dragon forms. Marik's dark bronze scales a beautiful contrast to Malik's light gold. Malik lifted the principal off the ground capturing his lower half in his sharp jaws. He bit down splitting him in half. Principal Mirioka screamed in pain as his upper and lower body were detached form each other; his upper half falling to the ground before the group; blood covering the grass. Yami hid Yugi's violet orbs from the gory mess in front of them. Marik licked up the blood and the upper half of the principal; the man's bones crunching easily into paste under the pressure of Marik's powerful jaws. The dragons licked their lips enjoying the taste of their meal.

Malik purred lowering his head towards the group, "Need a ride to the ocean?"

"The ocean?" Joey asked.

"Name a place safer for a siren than the ocean?" Malik chuckled.

"That is true. They would be safe there," Joey commented before making an observation, "A ride would be great, but then everyone will know about you."

"Bakura can cloak us," Marik glanced to the shadow elf standing next to Ryou.

"I hardly had the energy to shield one of you," Bakura blinked in disbelief, "There is no way in hell I will be able to shield you both."

"Yes there is," Ryou turned to him, "Take my energy…my power…everything!"

"But, Ryou.." Bakura began.

"No! Don't argue with me. We need to get Yugi and Yami to the ocean," Ryou enclosed Bakura's pale lips in a passionate kiss. A bright golden glow initially forming around the light elf as he kissed the shadow elf. The bright glow dimmed as Ryou's tongue explored the moist cavern of Bakura's mouth. The shadow elf could hardly believe the power and energy his light possessed. Ryou groaned; his body weakening. He wrapped his arms around Bakura's neck to keep himself standing a little bit longer to give his remaining energy to Bakura. The shadow elf wrapped his arms tightly around Ryou's waist catching the elf as he collapsed in his arms.

"Holy fuck what a rush!" Bakura smirked as he picked Ryou's unconscious form up bridal style. The healer's head tilted back his long white neck exposed and his silver hair dancing in the cold winter air.

"Do you have enough to shield both of us now?" Malik inquired.

"It should be enough to at least get us all to the beach," Bakura approached the dragons still carrying Ryou.

"Well come on then! Mount up!" Marik growled at the group, "We need to go!"

Yami helped Yugi climb onto Marik's scaled dark bronze back. Yami climbed up behind him. Tristan and Joey slid onto Malik's back.

Bakura gently handed Ryou to Joey, "For the love of Ra do not drop him! I need all of my energy to cloak us all in shadows so you need to hold onto him. I will kill you if you drop him," Bakura snapped.

Joey's honey brown orbs rolled, "I won't drop him." Ryou was placed between Joey and Tristan; his head resting on Tristan's shoulder as he slouched into Joey behind him. Bakura nodded as he slid onto Marik's back behind Yami.

"What about you two?" Tristan glanced over at Anzu and Ms. Davidson.

"I am going to stay and try to figure out how to dissuade this rumor. Good luck to you all. Look after each other. I am sure I will see you again," she blew a small kiss to Yugi and Yami.

"Anzu?" Malik grunted; his front claws digging at the dirt in anticipation.

"I'm going to try and disorient them enough for us to convince them that nothing out of the ordinary just happened," Anzu blushed.

"How do you plan on doing that?" Yami asked.

She blushed again, "Un-targeted screaming….."

Ms. Davidson's eyes widened, "You're a banshee?" Anzu nodded. "Well if you can focus enough to not lose control, that disorientation effect will be immensely helpful! If you disorient them and I sing to them, we may be able to pull it off together."

Anzu smiled, "let's do it!"

"Alright, let's go before the energy Ryou gave me wears out!" Bakura hollered raising his hand into the air. He formed a tight fist; the shadows surrounded them; concealing them from view. Marik and Malik flapped their powerful wings lifting the group off the ground; they turned in the direction towards the ocean. Malik could not help but grin. It had been a very long time since he had the chance to stretch his wings and fly around. It felt amazing.
