Balance
Chapter 11: Day and Night 3

Yugi looked at Yami's face. His eyes were closed. Anzu turned around, not wanting to look at him. Yugi's body heaved with heavy sobs as he held his friend. "Yugi" Anzu spoke "What did Yami whisper in your ear?" Yugi clutched Yami. "He said he loved me" Anzu closed her eyes. "He told me to watch you. Thats all he said" Anzu said quietly

'Shadii' Yugi thought viciously. 'Why?!' ::I am sorry. The Balance was not in his favor. It had to happen:: 'THATS NOT GOOD ENOUGH!' Yugi let out a scream of anguish. ::I apologize. I do:: Yugi continued to sob, and he cried himself to sleep. Anzu turned to see Yugi asleep, hugging Yami, with a tearstained face. Her heart broke and she settled down next to Yugi and fell asleep next to him.

"I dont know where he is!" The guard moaned as he looked from room to room with his companions. "I dont either!" another guard said. "Possibly at the temple?" asked the third. The Pharoah was gone for a while. His guards needed to find him. The other two nodded and all three ran from the palace and to the temple of Ra


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Yugi awoke to voices shouting, approaching the temple. He sat up and nudged Anzu awake and for her to do the same. She sat up, yawned and rubbed her eyes. "Who is coming?" She asked Yugi. Yugi shrugged and knelt beside Yami. He wasn't comfortable for people to see him in this fix.

The people entered the temple, and the identity of them was revealed to Yugi and Anzu. They were guards to the Pharoah. The guards were astonished. Yes, there was there Pharoah, but he was on the floor, with two slaves beside him.

The guards were trained to deal in these situations. And this one was extremely suspicious. The head guard strode forward and lowered his spear. "What have you done to our Pharoah?!" Yugi's eyes widened. "We haven't done anything!" "Can you prove that?" Yugi lowered his head and nervously fingered his coarse clothes. "No..." "Get up" "But we havent-" began Anzu.

"NOW!!" The guard lunged forward and struck Anzu with his spear. Anzu winced and looked down at the deep gash now opening on her arm. She got up and so did Yugi. "Hands up" They obeyed. For good measure the guard struck Yugi at the back of his head with his spear. Yugi felt blood ooze down his neck. A white hot pain streaked across his head.

He walked behind Anzu and Anzu walked behind the two guards. The one with the spear followed behind Yugi in case he tried to do anything tricky. Yugi bowed his head as he walked. Tears ran down his cheeks. 'Ra...help' "Don't cry you fuck" the guard barked at Yugi. Yugi didn't listen. They walked back to the palace, and were charged with the murdering of Yami

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Yugi and Anzu were treated just like any criminal might. That night found them chained against a wall in a dark murky rat filled dungeon. Yugi and Anzu were stretched side by side and blood dripped from there bodies, after an hour of intense whipping.
Yugi sobbed as white hot pain streaked through his body. Anzu was silent, even after beatings, rapings by the guards and whipping. Yugi noticed Anzu's silence. He turned to her.

"Anzu?" She didn't say anything. Yugi fought to get a look of her, the chains prevented him from doing the tiniest movement, thanks to spikes on the cuffs and spikes mounted on the wall, not letting the victim rest from the wall, forcing him to arch away from the wall, and then the arching from the wall, caused the spikes on the cuffs to bite into waist, head, ankles, wrists, belly etc. Basically, no matter what you did, you would bleed either way. And you couldnt sleep.

But Anzu was. Her eyes were closed. "Anzu?" No response. "Anzu!" In the dim light she wasn't stirring from his voice. "ANZU!!!" Yugi sobbed. "RA!!!!!!! NO RA!!!!!!!!" Yugi pushed himself against the cuffs trying to escape. "Anzu...Anzu.....anzu" His voice broke down to a whisper from exaustion.

A guard rushed in to see what all the noise was about. "What the fuck is going on?!" He shouted. Yugi continued to whisper Anzu's name over and over. The guard strode forward toward Anzu and checked her. "Oh shit...the bitch is dead. I'll have to find some other whore now to serve me"

He turned his attention to Yugi. "You woke me up!" Yugi wasn't listining. He was still chanting Anzu's name. The guard frustrated, whipped Yugi with his whip. Yugi let out a choked sob. The guard smiled and continued. Yugi let out a louder sob and screamed and cried. Finially, he couldn't help himself. "YAMI!" Yugi screamed. "HELP ME!"

The guard ignored him, and continued to abuse the chained child. He then unchained Anzu and the dead girl dropped onto the floor. He grunted and swung her over his shoulder. "This whore will be burned. You though, with the murder of the Pharoah you will pay" The guard walked from the dungeon. Yugi continued to cry. "Yami...help me....I love you..."

The next day, Yugi, charged with the murdering with Yami, went through the trial of criminals. He was whipped for two hours. He was stretched on the rack, not enough to kill him, but him to see stars and pain. The guards noticed with interest that the whole time during Yugi's ordeal, he cried Yami's name, and Anzu's name. Even the name of someone they didn't know. Someone called Shadii. Yugi was weak with pain halfway through. As tears weakly dripped down his angelic face he prayed to Ra and to Yami. 'Yami...I love you...please help me...' that following night...Yugi was hung.
