Chapter 36

Yugi groaned as he woke the next morning. Something didn't feel right with himself but shook it off because of the activities he'd done the night before. Yugi stretched out before looking at Atemu and Yami who were still asleep. Yugi smiled and quickly sat up and slipped out from between them, causing Yami to frown before he moved over and cuddled up to Atemu. Yugi smiled before walking into the bathroom and turned the water on in the very large bath. Yugi thought it looked more like a small swimming pool. Once it was filled, Yugi quickly slipped in and lay back against the side of the bath.

--Ω∞Ω--

Yami frowned and opened his eyes hearing water flowing. He saw Atemu was still fast asleep and he found Yugi wasn't between them. Yami groaned softly and removed Atemu's arms from his body and rolled out of bed before looking back to see if he was awake. Atemu had turned and buried his face in the pillow and was hugging it to his body. Yami had to try and stop himself from laughing because of how funny it was.

Yami turned and walked into the bathroom to find Yugi now sitting back against the side of the bath with the water turned off. Yami smiled and walked over silently and knelt down beside him and blew air gently across the back of his neck. Yugi jumped and spun around to see Yami there smiling.

"Yamiiiiiiii!!! Don't do that." Yugi whined.

"Sorry couldn't help it."

Yami climbed in and pulled Yugi against his chest and kissed him gently. Yugi smiled and leaned against him and cuddled up to his chest in the bath.

--Ω∞Ω-- 8 Weeks later --Ω∞Ω--

During the 8 weeks Yugi had found out he was pregnant with his mate's children and was so happy. Happy with everything but the morning sickness that lasted 5weeks and also the mood swings that had started and he'd snap every so often at his mates for no reason. They knew he wasn't angry with him it was just something that happened.

The human that had tortured Ryou and Yugi was put to death giving them both some closer. Akefia and Bakura had enjoyed getting some revenge for what he did to the two young mates. Just to say the human had begged for death only 10mintues after they started and he was alive for 3months before they executed him in public where the crowd threw rocks at him for 5minutes before stopping and was executed the same way Yugi's father was.

Seth wanted to leave the services at the palace to raise a family with Jou and Seto without work interfering with that so he had taken Jou and Seto to a place that he own that was out of the way so they could do just that.

Ryou was also 8weeks pregnant again at the same time as Yugi. Both were happy and this time Ryou had more mood swings than he had the first time.

Everything was going fine with everyone and they were enjoying themselves without having to hunt for food and worry if they were going to be found.

--Ω∞Ω--

Malik was again lying on the nest like he had been for a while now. He did get bored but he had to. Malik sighed, Ryou and Yugi hadn't come to see him lately and he was getting a little lonely. Marik had to be at all council meetings so he couldn't stay with him all the time.

It was about lunch time now and Malik was bored as all hell. He heard a small cracking sound and frowned. More came a minute later and this just confused him so much. Malik then felt a little movement under his belly and quickly stood up and saw the egg cracking. Malik smiled and then let out a loud roar hoping to get Marik's attention and he'd then come. Malik was jumping with glee.

--Ω∞Ω--

Marik was standing in the throne room next to Akefia; Bakura was looking after a very annoying Ryou right now and couldn't be there. Yami was also out of the room to look after an unwell Yugi. He'd come down with a small stomach bug and was in their chambers at the moment.

Marik jumped along with everyone else in the room when they heard a loud roar that vibrated through the whole castle. Marik knew what was happening and looked to Atemu who was getting out of his seat and looking at him before nodding. Marik ran from the room with Akefia and Atemu on his tail, just in case it wasn't what they thought was happening.

Marik arrived a minute after Malik roared and he carefully opened the door to see Malik's body was blocking any few of the egg. Marik motioned for them to stay outside before he entered and closed the door. Malik looked back at him for a second and growled before sniffing him and then using his tail nudged his back to make him move forward.

Marik quickly changed and then moved forward to see the small egg hatching. Marik wrapped his tail around Malik's and both waited patiently for their child to make its way out. Soon a tail shot out of the shell and then four little legs from the bottom and it started to run around trying to find where it was.

Malik smiled as the egg covered dragon ran into the wall of the nest shattering the rest of the egg, leaving a small piece resting on its head. The little dragon shook his head removing the egg piece from there and looked around. He had cute little wings on his back that he wouldn't be able to use till he was 8.

Malik moved his head down and nudged the little dragon in the side getting its attention quickly. The little dragon noticed Malik and started to coo softly before seeing Marik standing back next to Malik and looking at him before whimpering and hiding behind Malik's head that was next to him. Malik frowned and looked up at Marik and saw why. He didn't look all that friendly at the moment. Malik swatted him over the head which made Marik look at him confused.

"What was that for?"

"Scaring our child."

"How?"

"You didn't have the friendliest looks on your face just before. Try smiling."

Marik narrowed his eyes at Malik before moving closer and Malik lifted his head up reviling the little dragon. Marik smiled and moved his head down next to him to have the little dragon bit his nose. Marik yelped and backed away from the dragon and shook his head. Malik looked down at their child and was a little angry.

"You don't bite anyone, especially not your father."

The little dragon understood the angry look and tucked his tail between his legs and looked down. Malik turned to Marik and nuzzled his cheek.

"He's just a baby. Don't take it personally."

"Alright."

Malik walked over and picked the child up with his mouth gently and moved into the nest and placed the small dragon between his front legs. The little dragon curled up in a ball and slowly fell asleep. Malik looked at Marik who was sitting down beside him and smiled.

"A baby boy. He has your attitude as well."

"Yes and your looks." This caused Malik to blush and a faint red colour could be seen on his face. "What do you want to name the little fella?"

"How about something Egyptian?"

"Alright, but I'm guessing you don't know any."

"Guilty."

"Alright, have about I give some suggestions and you decide on one."

"You have to agree with it though."

"I will, now these Bomani is one that means warrior, Zuberi means strong, Moswen means light skin, Adofo means fighter, Akins meaning brave, Gahiji meaning hunter, Asim meaning protector or there's Hondo meaning war." Marik chuckled.

"Marik no we aren't naming our son after war. How about Zuberi, Asim or Moswen?"

"I'll give him strong that hurt too."

Malik chuckled and nuzzled his neck. "Zuberi it is then."

Marik smiled and wrapped his tail around Malik's and placed his wing over Malik's body. Malik smiled and laid his head across his legs and kept Zuberi between his chest and neck.

"I'm going to go see Akefia and Atemu to let them know what was going on. Do you think you'd be able to let Ryou and Malik along with the others see out child?"

"I think so Marik. Just make sure I don't attack anyone. The instant I growl get them out."

"You know I will. I'll get them to come tomorrow. It could be too much for Zuberi."

Malik nodded and looked back at the little boy dragon that was sleeping against his chest. Marik slowly got up and started to leave when he heard a small cry and turned back to see Zuberi trying to crawl over Malik's neck, with Malik who was now looking at him. Marik walked over and gently nuzzle the little dragon before settling him back down where he'd previously been.

"I'll be back. You stay here and be a good little boy and got to sleep."

Zuberi walked around in a circle before curling up on the nest floor and closed his eyes. Malik smiled up at Marik before closing his eyes. Marik changed form and walked out. He saw Atemu and Akefia there and smiled.

"I'm officially a father now."

"Congratulations Marik."

"Thankyou, if you want you and your mates can come by tomorrow to see him. Hopefully Malik should be alright with it."

"Yeah sure." Akefia said.

"If Yugi's well we'll come otherwise we'll wait and come with him."

"I understand. We'll I won't be coming back to the meeting Atemu."

"I know that. Go back to your family Marik. We'll talk later."

Marik nodded and headed back in as Atemu and Akefia headed back to their meeting. Marik walked over in his dragon form to find that Zuberi was not asleep and was just sitting there waiting for him to come back. Marik nuzzled Malik's neck causing him to look up at him confused.

"Did you want to give him a middle name because it just struck me he's strong and protective."

"You mean as in Zuberi Asim Ishtal."

"Yeah."

"I like it. What about you?" Malik asked Zuberi who tried to let out a roar.

Marik chuckled and nuzzled the little dragon on the neck gently. Malik smiled and yawned loudly before laying his head down again. Zuberi did the same and actually fell asleep. Marik smiled and laid down next to Malik and laid his wing over him. Malik smiled and Marik rubbed his nose with Malik's.

"I love you."

"I love you too Marik, so much."
