Chapter 5- Enter the Hunter
"Get away from him you demon!" The male voice yelled.
Téa turned in the direction of the voice. There by the door stood Yami with a sword pointed menacingly at her.
"Back away from him!" Téa immediately backed away from Yugi and went to the opposite side of the room. Yami watched her cautiously, sword still held up threatening her, and walked over to his brother's side. He removed his intense crimson eyes from her and glanced down at Yugi. His eyes immediately landed on the two puncture wounds on Yugi's neck.
"What did you do to him?" he roared. "Answer me!" He advanced toward her, making her back up into the wall. He had her trapped. He placed the blade of the sword aiming right for her heart.
"Yami let me explain." Téa said calmly.
"That's what I'm waiting for! An explanation you leech!" Téa looked at him in disbelief. He truly was a cold-hearted vampire killer. It didn't matter to him that they used to be friends. He treated her just like another nameless vampire he had to kill. A mere parasite that fed on the living.
"I'm losing patience! What did you do to my brother?" He inched the blade closer to her heart. Another inch and he would kill her. "Well?" He asked impatiently.
Before Téa could say a word, she was interrupted.
"Yami." A voice called out weakly from the other side of the room.
"Yugi!" Yami turned quickly on his heels and walked over to Yugi. "Yugi are you all right? What happened?" He asked clearly relieved to see him awake.
/I'm fine./ He replied mentally. He didn't have the strength to talk.
//Brother what happened? Why did she hurt you?// He asked, he glance angrily at Téa and then turned his attention back to his younger twin.
/She didn't attack me. I let her drink from me./ Yugi replied.
//You did what!// He said sharply, yelling mentally at him.
Yugi grabbed the side of his head. "Don't yell." He scolded Yami aloud.
"Sorry brother." Yami apologized. "It's just that that comment took me by surprise."
"She bit me because I let her. She needed to feed and I offered her some of my blood." He explained to him. "She didn't attack me." He repeated, hoping his brother would get the point.
"Yugi how could you trust her. She could have killed you. Have you forgotten all of the pain she put us through, more you then me."
"She didn't kill me as you can see and no I haven't forgotten. I love her."
Yami sighed deeply in frustration. "She betrayed you, rejected your love for her and joined forces with our enemy Seto Kaiba Yami told him, trying to refreshing Yugi's memories, cause apparently he had lost them.
"You don't have to remind me. I remember everything." Yugi replied sadness in his voice. His amethyst eyes glossed over with unshed tears. He sniffled and fought them back. He didn't want to cry right now. "By the way Yami, it's clear that you have forgotten that she saved us once too." His voice wavered slightly. Yami sat there speechless, he didn't have a comeback for that comment.
"I would like to explain." Téa said meekly from the opposite side of the room, causing the twins to turn their gazes to her.
//I don't want her here Yugi.// He mental voice sounded angry. //I don't care that she saved us. That's in the past.//
/Just let her explain and then you can let her go./
Yami turned to look at Yugi. //I can't let her leave here alive.//
//Yami she used to be our friend, your friend, let her go. Please!// Yugi pleaded with his brother.
Reluctantly Yami gave in. //All right I'll let her go. I hope we don't regret this.// Yami silently gestured for Téa to sit down. She settled down on the couch and released a deep breath. This is going to be hard, she thought.
"I still remember the day that Seto came into our lives, the mysterious stranger. I remember I had feelings for you then, but I was afraid of telling you. I had no idea how you felt and the fear of rejection wouldn't let me tell you. That night when I saw Seto and he looked into my eyes, everything else was forgotten. It seemed like Seto and I were the only people in the world. He had me hypnotized, I didn't know that then but I know it now. His mind control is very powerful. That night he changed me, but I had no idea what had happened to me. I just felt hungry. The hungriest I've ever felt in my life."
"I remember someone was in the dark room with me. They were sleeping, or unconscious, but I knew they were there. I could smell the blood and a faint smell of fear. These smells were intoxicating to me, it was all I could smell. I attacked them with no mercy, it was in my nature now and I drained them to death. I couldn't believe that I had killed someone. My victim didn't even make a sound and I took some consolation about that. They hadn't suffered."
"Someone turned on the light and I could finally see the face of my victim. I was aghast and horrified that I had killed one of my best friends. If I would have known, that it was Joey I would have tried to restrain myself. I couldn't believe my eyes and I cried. I cried until my tears ran dry. Later that night Seto came to me and he told me that he was all I had. I knew that you would reject me because I had killed Joey and because I was now a monster. I knew you would never forgive me for killing Joey. Therefore, I stayed with Seto and did whatever he told me. His mind control was so strong over me that I never questioned him. One thing that he couldn't control was my heart and it angered him. My heart only belongs to you Yugi, but I know we can never be together." She said sadly.
"That's right, you will never be together." A cold voice spoke out. "You belong to me." Seto Kaiba stood by the open front door.
"Kaiba!" Yami stood, anger in his eyes. He twirled the sword in his hands, from one hand to the other.
"Stand down hunter, I've just come for her." Seto pointed at Téa. "She's mine!"
"She's not yours Kaiba and she belongs to no one!" Yugi told him.
"If you want her you're in for a fight!" Yami said posed in a fighting stance.
"Really? Is that so?" he said contemplating his options. He turned his back on them and began walking out the door. Then very quickly, he turned back to them and something shot out of his hand. It looked like fire, but Yami was ready and he deflected it. As he deflected it, he fell hard onto the ground.
"Yami!" Yugi and Téa yelled in unison. Before Yugi could run to Yami's side, Seto seized him from behind. Yugi struggled against him but Seto was too strong and not to mention Yugi was weakened from the loss of blood.
"I have other ways of making you come to me Téa. If you're not back at my mansion tomorrow by midnight. This one dies." He held Yugi against him by the throat. In a blink of an eye, they both vanished.
"Yugi!" Yami groaned as he woke up.
Téa knelt down beside him. "He's gone. Seto took him."
"I have to save my brother." He told her.
"I know! I'm so sorry for this. Tomorrow I'll go back to him and he'll release Yugi." Téa told him.
Yami grabbed her hand. "No, Yugi wouldn't want you to go back to him. Our only choice is to kill Kaiba."
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Yugi opened his eyes and was greeted with a pair of cold blue eyes looking intently at him.
"Finally you wake." Seto said in his icy tone.
"Where am I?" Yugi asked him, glancing around.
"In the dungeon of my mansion." Seto replied.
"Why did you bring me here?" Yugi asked pulling on the shackles around his wrists.
"I've brought you here so Téa would come back to me. If she's not back by tomorrow you're dead." He turned around to leave. Then turned back to look at Yugi.
"My how you've grown Yugi but I still don't understand what she sees in you." Kaiba glared into those amethyst eyes. He could see the pureness and the innocence in those eyes. Then he's eyes landed on Yugi's neck. "I see she's tasted you. Maybe that's what she sees in you, your blood." He tilted Yugi's neck to the side. "I think I'll have a little taste myself."
"No! Don't!" Yugi shouted. He tried to pull away, but he couldn't. He was trapped but he still fought.
Kaiba bit deep into his neck causing Yugi to scream out in pain. Unlike Téa, Seto wasn't numbing the pain. Seto took a few gulps of Yugi's blood, careful not to take much since Téa had already drunk from him. He pulled away and licked him lips.
"Sweet." Was all Yugi heard before he passed out.
