Chapter 34

It was cold when she woke up. Yugi felt a dull pain in her head. Her hand splashed down in a puddle that numbed her hand.

What happened? I remember going back to my room. Yugi looked around. And then-

The was a scream from outside. Her amethyst eyes widened and she stood. Her legs gave out beneath her-she have to settle for crawling. The screaming grew more frantic as Yugi moved around.

"Why does it have to be so dark." Yugi muttered. "Don't basic prison cells have some kind of light?" There was a clang when her fingers brushed against a wall. Yugi froze and looked around. The screaming seemed louder. She could hear voices on the other side.

"Damn, this one can scream."

"Hold her down boys."

"How long is this supposed to go on for?"

"Can we kill them after this? This bitch isn't worth it."

"We keep them alive until we're given the signal."

"And when will that be?"

Yugi felt her blood run cold. She knew that voice. The fear she had was replaced with anger. She trusted them. She wanted to break this wall down and make him regret ever tricking her.

"Oh thank Ra she's done."

"We got what we needed. Throw her in the cell."

"But...don't babies need some kind of comfort after they're born?"

There was an uncomfortable silence. That last sentence made Yugi's heart stop and her blood run cold. A baby...but the...she was supposed to...This couldn't be happening.

"It'll get it when we give it to the boss."

Yugi pushed herself against the wall as footsteps approached and forced the door open.

"Hope you like company, My Lady." A body was thrown into the cell landing with a loud thud. The tricolored haired girl ran over to the fallen blonde. Supai threw his hands up as he stared into her glowing amethyst eyes. "No hard feelings, Lady Yugi. It's just business."

"Mira wasn't needed to get rid of me." Yugi put the blonde's head on her lap.

"No, but that baby was pretty important." Yugi looked at Mira. She was shaking and had her hand on her stomach. Supai had a smirk on his face. "Our boss is paying us pretty well to handle this problem."

"What are going to do? Kill it?"

"No way." Supai laughed. "Boss wants it for a ransom. Convince the prince to give into the demands and he gets the baby and you two go free. Refuses and well..."

"I get it. Fiona must be enjoying herself."

"Fiona? Please. She couldn't think this plan up even if she tried. She's way to stupid. The boss is someone else."

Yugi felt Mira's hand tighten in her hand. We're getting out of this.

"Good luck trying." Supai began to walk away. "I'm off to meet with the Boss about part two of this plan. See you in a few weeks, My Lady." The door closed behind him, leaving the two women in an almost dark room.

"I hate him." Yugi muttered.

"We're on the same page then." Yugi's amethyst eyes met Mira's blue as she helped the blonde shift around. "I cannot believe I was foolish enough to be captured."

"There's no way you could have known what was happening." Yugi tried to comfort her. Mira shook her head.

"I should have. I'd been on my guard the whole time. The one time I'm not, I'm captured and lose my child to someone who wants to hold us for ransom."

"We aren't waiting for them to get back to the palace." Yugi said. "We'll get out of here as soon as they're gone." She stopped the blonde from moving. "Don't push yourself, Mira."

"You'll have to make me. I won't be able to rest unless you do."

"...What's the baby's name?"

Mira was silent. "Allen and I had spent a lot of time discussing that. We never really thought of our own name, but we wanted them to have meaning. We decided on his mother or father's name."

"What were their names?"

"His mother was Bianca. His father was Aspen."

"They both sound nice."

"Thank you." Mira sighed and shifted. "Everyone will be gone tomorrow. We can try and escape then." She looked to the side. "The door is unlocked."

"It's jammed into place." Yugi replied. "I watched Supai," she spat the name out. "force it back into place after he put you in here."

"...I see. Then we need our rest." Mira slowly pushed herself off of Yugi's lap and rested her head on her arms. Yugi did the same.

I hope we get out of this tomorrow.
