Me: *beat and bruised* X_X;
Raz: …
Ashton: *back to normal* She killed her! _
Elleaner: I'll kill her!! ¬_¬
Faith: *sigh* Read and review, or we don't know WHAT will happen…
Malik: zzzzz
Faith: …well that was pointless -_-'
Disclaimer: You should get it by now. I'm poor…and I live in a basement ¬_¬
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Shay sat there on the ground, staring at the window. "You…just…"
A dark laugh came from behind her. Slowly, the young girl turned around, her cheeks stained with tears and blood, her eyes wide and shimmering with tears. "Why…" Her voice was cracking, and she couldn't get a full sentence out.
Charles chuckled and took a step towards her. Shadows covered most of the room. In a silent flash of lightening, the young boy's appearance changed. His hair was silver and now more spiked. His skin was white and his eyes a dark, cold chocolate brown.
Shay's eyes widened even more and her voice was caught up in her throat. But as shocked as she was, she was able to mutter one word:
"B…B-Bakura…"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A flash of lightening covered the plains in the dark realm. Neko-Soma and Joey looked up. "It can rain in the demon world?" Joey asked.
"Yea, it doesn't very often though." Raziel was still leaning against the tower as the first raindrop fell. Neko-Soma groaned, "Aww, great, now I'm gonna get my new shoes wet!"
All the guys sweat dropped.
Faith shivered, "Lets just get in guys, this is giving me the creeps."
"Oh so being in a demonic realm full of shadows and monsters doesn't scare you?" Raziel said mockingly.
Faith rolled her eyes, "Oh, Yea Raziel, lemme tell ya."
Everyone besides the two sweat dropped.
"Well…" Ashton said, "We should be getting in now."
Malik nodded. "I'll go around and see where the gate is," The young Egyptian said as he ran off. The group waited for a few minutes, then heard a shout.
"Hey guys!" Called Malik's voice, "I found it!" The group started off in that direction.
Elleaner was staring at the spot where the pendant had broken even after the rest of the group had walked on. She bent down and picked it up, holding it close to her chest. "Don't worry," she said in a soft, quiet voice. She closed her pale hand over the golden piece of jewelry, "I'll get you back…"
Elleaner jumped a little as firm, yet gentle grip tightened on her shoulder. She looked over her shoulder to see Ashton smiling down at her, "Yea, we will get her back." He said. Elleaner smiled back at him and stood up, then the two walked to the rest of the group.
When Elleaner and Ashton walked back, the group was all ready inside. Neko-Soma was wringing her hair out, mumbling to herself. Raziel was leaning against the wall looking at the ground, and the rest were standing there, waiting to move on.
Neko-Soma straitened up and cooed. "Aww, you two look so cute together!!"
Elleaner blushed ever so slightly as Ashton beamed. Elle giggled, but was silenced by a glance from Elleaner. "Can we go now?" Yugi said in a small voice. Ashton nodded and the group started off.
Raziel was pulled back by Ashton grabbing his arm. He looked at his dark side, "Wtf?"
Ashton waited till the group had walked up at least one flight of stairs and turned back to his hikari. "Why are you like this, Raz? You never used to be."
Raziel pulled his arm away, "Like what?"
"Anti-Social and evil and stuff." Ashton said in a quiet voice, "You used to be…I dunno, you've changed."
Raziel looked at the ground, "Why are you questioning me?" he said, "I mean, you haven't asked me crap like this before."
Ashton shrugged, "I don't know, I just want to know if something's up."
Raziel brushed past the yami, "Nothing." he said. Ashton turned around and smiled, watching his hikari walk towards the stone spiral staircase. "I know whats up now…" he said slyly.
Raziel kept walking, but flipped his yami off and walked up the stairs. Ashton blinked; "Well I never knew it was that serious…" then ran after the group.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"You…no, you can't be Bakura…"
"Oh, but who said I was Bakura?" The vampire said in a sweet British voice.
Shay shook her head, "No…no, you….you're not…" she pulled her hands over her ears, "You can't be…"
"Who said I was?" He said in his French accent. "How do you know that I'm not just playing around with your puny mind?"
Shay was on her knees, looking at the ground with her hands clasped firmly over her ears. "No…can't…he's not…"
Charles looked down at the young girl, now back to normal. An idea played in his mind and he smirked. If he could frighten her from the one person she cared for…
A flash of black lightening filled the castle.
"Shay…"
Shay went silent. Was that Raziel voice? Had he killed Charles? Were they all right?
Slowly the teen looked up. "R…Raziel?"
Raziel was kneeling down by her side. She looked around; there wasn't a trace of Charles…
There was no one but them…
Shay flung her arms around the teens neck, "Raziel…Oh God, oh God…I'm so glad you're all right…"
"Yea, it's a good thing you're not dead too."
I knew it was a trick earlier… Shay thought, He would have never done that…not Raziel…
"…I wouldn't want to miss out on any fun."
Shay blinked and pulled back, "What…do you mean…?"
Raziel smirked, "Screaming, crying…blood, Shay. Your blood and cries and screams."
Terrified, the young girl pulled back away from him and stood up, taking a few steps back, "No…" she said, "no…you wouldn't, you're not like that!!"
"How would you know what I'm like, Shay?" He took a step towards her, "how could you understand?"
The young girl felt her back hit the wall, "I…I…" Slowly, she slid down the wall.
"You what?" Raziel asked, "You 'care'? Oh, you're trying to tell me you do understand, am I right?"
"Why…are you acting…like…"
"Like how?" Raziel stopped, "Like what?"
Shay looked at the ground. "You're not like this…"
"Oh, yes I am." Raziel said, "You've just pushed me as far as I can go, Shay." his voice was dripping with malice (AN: I hope I spelt that right _), "You made me one of you," the teens eyes started to glow red, "a creature of the night…"
"You're a demon!" Shay cried desperately as she looked up, "You…I was trying to help…"
"Well your wrong is coming back at you…" he lifted his hand up, a dark ball of energy forming in his palm…
Suddenly, memories came flooding back into the petite vampires mind.
(AN: Ok, this part is kinda hard to type since I'm imagining it as a movie, so I'll just do my best ^^;;)
~*~*~Flash~*~*~
"Listen…will you please, please be our friend?" Shay begged. Raz sighed AGAIN, "I don't need friends." Shay sighed this time, "Yes you do. Everyone need's friends."
~*~*~Flash~*~*~
"…What did you mean by 'the demon army?'" Shay asked. Raz sighed, "I knew that you'd ask that."
"Well…what did you mean?" Shay repeated. Raz looked at her, "If I tell you….you can't tell anyone else. Not even Ryou. Got that?"
"Okay."
~*~*~Flash~*~*~ (AN: Hey I know that these are corny but deal with it __________ lol)
"Cause I am, whatever you say I am, if I wasn't then why would I say I am-"
"Shay," Raz cut her off. Shay turned to Raz again, "Yeah?"
"Do you know…ANYTHING that's not…depressing?" He looked at her. Shay nodded, "Yeah…I've been so many places, and seen so many faces, but nothing compares to these blue and yellow purple hills!"
Raz sighed, "That's NOT by Eminem?"
Shay stopped. "Well…yeah, but…I can't sing anything else right now."
"Why?"
"Cause I don't want to."
~*~*~Flash~*~*~
"AHH!!!!!!"
Raz looked up at the sound of his sisters and friends screams. Without a second thought, he hurried into the living room. "Whats wrong?" he asked. "What the…"
Shay and Elle were both staring at the TV screen, which had a puddle of blood and a dilapidated (AN: I don't know if that's right, but a body with no head) body and the words 'Game Over' written in sinister writing. Shay was the first to say anything, "I…I died!! NO!!!" Shay sighed and handed the paddle to Elle, "Your turn…"
Raz cleared his throat. Both girls spun around. "Oh," Elle smiled at the sight of her brother, "hey bro, back?"
"Obviously." Raz said, "Whats wrong?"
Shay pointed to the screen, "I died…"
~*~*~Flash~*~*~
"Shay, what are you doing?" Raz asked for the second time. Shay rolled her eyes, "I told you, Raziel. Are demons slow, or its it just you?"
Raz glared at her, "What the hell's that supposed to mean?" he spat.
Shay sighed, "Never mind. Just forget it. I don't want you hurting yourself thinking about it…"
~*~*~Flash~*~*~ (AN: I re-did this part cause it kinda sucked in chapter 6 -_-' lol)
Shay stared to fall for the pond. "Careful!" Raz said, and grabbed her, pulling her away from the water. Shay looked up, her blue-green eyes meeting his brown from the odd position they were in. Raziel had one arm wrapped around Shay's waist, the other hand holding onto her wrist. Shay had her free hand clinging to Raz's back.
"Um…A-Arigato…" Shay stuttered. "No problem…" Raz said, and then looked her up and down. "You look…" he said, "…nice"
Shay bushed, "T-Thank you…" She said. Raz looked her up and down again, and then pressed his lips against hers gently. Shay's eye's widened but then relaxed as she kissed him back. Suddenly, Raz pulled back, breaking the kiss. "I-Im sorry." He said, then put shay down and started to walk away.
Shay dropped on the ground with a soft 'thud'. "Wha…" She got up, "Raz, wait!" and started running towards Raz.
Shay got to Raz and grabbed his arm, turning him around to face her. "Shay, I'm really sorry." He apologized again. "N-No," She said, "D-Don't be."
"But I have to be sorry," he said, "I shouldn't have done that." Shay sighed, "Listen Raziel, I…Its all right, you don't need to be sorry. And…" She left the sentence hanging again. Raz looked at her, and she at him. After a while of silence, Shay began to bite her lip. I can't resist… Raz thought, right before kissing Shay again, this time more passionately.
After they broke the kiss, Raziel smirked down at Shay. Shay blinked, "What?"
Raziel kept smirking and said: "…I love you."
~*~*~Flash~*~*~(AN: Ok, so I didn't change it THAT much -_-' but THE KISS IN CHAPTER 6 SUUUUUUUUUUUUCKED!!!!! ……….just letting ya know ^^;;)
"I love you too, Raziel…" Shay whispered.
Raziel lowered his hand slightly, "What did you say?"
"I love you…" Shay was looking at the ground.
Raziel snorted, "I don't love you, where the hell did you get that idea?"
There was a moment of silence…
Shay smirked, "You're not the real Raziel…"
"What?" the vampire said, totally skeptical.
"I said…" Shay looked up, "You're…not…Raziel!!"
The last word that came from her lips was triumphant yet angry. "You're NOT HIM! STOP LIEING!!"
The teen frowned and lowered his hand, changing back to his original vampire self. (AN: I had no idea how to word that -_-' lol)
Charles smirked, "Well…it looks like you're a little smarter then I gave you credit…"
Shay beamed, "yup."
"…But not by much."
Shay did an anime fall, "Oh gee…"
Charles chuckled, Shay looked up at him, "Whats so funny?"
Shadows fell through out the whole room. Not one speck of light was anywhere to be found.
Footsteps. Boots hitting against the hard floor. Shay's heartbeat quickened and her breath came in short gasps. She couldn't see. What was going on? Where was the monster that had kidnapped her?
She gasped suddenly as his hand firmly grasped her shoulder. She spun around and looks up. His eyes were glistening in the pitch black. "Whats going on…"
Shay was cut off by two pinpricks hitting a vein in her neck. Her eyes lids fluttered, and she blacked out…
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"How…many…stairs…are…there…" Joey panted.
" I lost count at 13 flights," Tristen said.
Neko-Soma groaned, "My heels are KILLING me!!"
Raziel sighed. "Stop whining." Elleaner said.
"How…can…you…keep…this…up...yami?" Elle was nearly out of breath and was leaning on Malik for support, who was leaning on his rod.
Seto stopped suddenly, along with Faith. "Can you hear that?" Faith whispered.
"Hear what…" Malik had stopped also.
"Shh…" Faith held her finger to her lips.
The whole group stopped, completely silent.
There was a soft moan followed by a thud and a scream. After that there was the clattering of metal hitting the floor, and another thud, as if something were hitting a wall.
After that, silence.
"……………" Raziel bolted up the stairs. "Raziel!" Elle hissed, then forgot all about being tired and ran after him. The rest of the group ran after her.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Raziel ran up two…three…four more flights of stairs. An image of his friend with cuts and scars beaten and bruised in bloody rags filled his mind.
This made him run faster.
After a few more minutes of running, Raz had made it up to the top of the tower. He stood in the doorway, his eyes straining against the blackness.
Ashton was the next one to make it to the top, followed by Elleaner and the rest of the group. "Its all black…" Raz heard Elleaner say. He stayed silent.
Raz took two steps into the room, straining his eyes and ears. Wait, what was that he heard?
Drip…
Drip…
Drip…
Raz looked up. There was a circular window with the figure of a cross over it…no, wait…not a cross…
That was a…
Body!?
Raziel's eyes widened. Shay was hanging by her wrists. Her white gown was sliced/ripped showing her chest (AN: YOU GUYS SHOULD KNOW WHAT I MEAN BY NOW AND IF YOU DON'T I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU!!! _________ lol). It was form fitting and clung to her thighs. The rest of the part covering the legs was split and hanging down to her feet, showing her knees and shins. She was barefoot and her head was tilted down, her hair covering her face. A line of blood was finding its way down her body and to her bare feet. Her skin was pale, a milky white, making the red show up very easily against it.
Elle gasped, "Oh Ra…" Neko-Soma was speechless. Everyone was quiet. "That's sick…" Faith said, her voice shaky.
"You're a little late." A voice came from the shadows. Everyone snapped his or her heads in that direction. Charles stepped out of the shadows, a smirk painted on his lips. "What?" Raziel growled.
"You're late." Charles repeated, "She's gone. Dead. Looks like the little king didn't do a very good job." He added venomously.
"Grr…" Raziel looked back up at the window. A blood droplet fell from the body and hit the ground.
"She did fight, but she couldn't get away." Charles continued to anger Raziel. Elle was sobbing quietly in Malik's arms. Faith was silent, along with most of the other members of the group. Joey had his fists balled up and Yugi had an eye glowing on his forehead (AN: Hey when that little pixie thing died then there was that eye ^^;; heh heh lol). Neko-Soma was mumbling to herself.
Raziel stayed silent, a red aura glowing around his body. "You didn't kill her…" he whispered to himself, "You didn't…"
Charles laughed darkly, "She's gone! Finished," he licked his lips, "She was very delicious though…"
"Shut up…" Raziel growled, "Stop it…" tears were stinging his eyes and he was now looking at the ground.
Another drop of blood hit the floor.
Charles chuckled, "Don't want to accept the truth I see. Well…" A bloody dagger appeared at Raziel's feet, "Taste the blood for yourself, then you'll know its hers…"
Raz kicked the bloody dagger, "SHUT UP WITH YOUR TRICKS AND YOUR LIES!" He was desperate, as if expecting to wake up and have this all be a dream, or even have his friend look up, telling him nothing wrong and to not be afraid.
He did not wake up…
She did not look up…
A dark laugh filled the room.
"Accept it, devil! You've lost! She's dead! DEAD!"
Dead…
There was silence…
Another drop of blood hit the ground.
"No." Raziel whispered.
Charles looked at Raz, "What?" he asked, "What did you say?"
"No." Raz repeated, "She's not dead."
"Oh, but she is…" Charles smirked, "And you know what she wanted me to tell you?"
Everyone was silent.
"…What?"
"…She wanted me to tell you…" Charles said in a sadistic tone, "…that she loved you."
Another drop of blood hit the ground.
--------------------------------------
Cut my life into pieces, this is my last resort
--------------------------------------
Raziel growled, "No…she's…NOT!"
Suddenly the Sparda sword appeared in his hand and he spun around, pointing it right at Charles' throat. Charles backed up and knocked the weapon away with his double bladed sword.
---------------------------------------
Suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a f*ck if I cut my arm bleeding
----------------------------------------
Charles smirked, "So the little king can't control his temper?"
Raziel growled, "You don't deserve to live…you sick bastard!" He took another swing at vampire, who easily dodged it. "If you keep just swinging at me then you'll never live."
"We'll see about that…"
-------------------------------------
This is my last resort…
Cut my life into pieces, this is my last resort
Suffocation, no breathing
----------------------------------
Raziel spun around and locked swords with Charles (AN: I hope you get it _o lol), then they both pulled back. Raziel charged at the young vampire, making to stab him in the stomach. Charles jumped up in the air and kicked Raz in the face.
--------------------------------
Don't give a f*ck if I cut my arm bleeding,
Do you even care if I die pleading?
Would it be wrong, would it be right
If I took my life tonight?
Chances are, that I might
Mutilation out of sight,
And I'm contemplating suicide
-----------------------------
Raziel staggered backwards and looked at Charles, glaring. Charles smirked and dived for Raz, slicing in his direction. Raziel jumped back and let the vampire run past him. He then pulled the Sparda sword up and took a step forward, then threw it at the other teen. The sword fashioned itself to look like an ax (AN: Well I think it looks like an ax anyway!!!!! _) and started spinning towards the vamp.
Charles turned around, just in time to get hit in the face with the blunt end of the sword, but ducked after that. The sword turned like a boomerang and headed back in Raziel's hand. Raz smirked and ran for his opponent, when he got to his destination he kneed the vampire in the stomach. Charles doubled over, but kicked Raz in his shin.
Raz cursed and held his shin. The vampire laughed darkly and elbowed Raziel in the face, then punched him in the stomach.
---------------------------------------
Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine.
Losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
----------------------------------------
Raziel groaned in pain, a red aura glowing around his body. Charles smirked and stepped back. "Are you going to change now, devil?"
"Not just yet…" Raz stood up and charged at Charles, grabbing him around the waist and throwing him to the ground.
Charles jumped back up, his sword in hand. Raziel summoned the Sparda sword back up and the two got into another intense clash.
--------------------------------------
I never realized I was spread to thin,
Till it was too late, and I was empty within.
Hungary, feeding off my chaos and living in sin
It was horrid, where do I begin? (AN: I'm not to sure of that line _ lol)
It all started when I lost my mother,
No love for myself and no love for another
Searching to find love upon higher levels,
Finding nothing but questions and devils
--------------------------------------
~*~*Meanwhile*~*~
Faith tore her eyes away from the fight and looked back up at the window. "How do we get her down?"
"I've got that covered," Seto said as he aimed his shotgun up at the window.
WHACK!
"Are you INSANE?" Faith said. Seto held his head, "Ow, I was going to shoot the locks!"
"Well what if you missed!?"
"Man Seto," Neko-Soma said, "Even Joey's not that dumb!"
"Yea, even I'm not…HEY!!"
Everyone sweat dropped at Joey.
Ashton made his way to the window, tearing his eyes off of the fight, {He'll be fine…} he thought. (AN: Raz: Of course I would be fine!! All: …*cough*. Raz: …I hate you sometimes. Me: I know ^^;;)
Elleaner followed Ashton, who was followed by the rest of the group. Ashton looked up, "How do we get her down…"
Elleaner, "I'm on it," the yami got ready to jump up, but turned around, "EVER speak of me helping her again…I will skin you alive."
Everyone gulped and nodded. Ashton sweat dropped.
Elleaner closed her eyes and floated up to the young teen. She tore at the shackles with her hands, and when that didn't work, blasted them with small energy balls. That didn't work either.
"I can't get her lose!" Elleaner called down over her shoulder.
"Yes you can, try again!" Ashton called back. Elleaner sighed and started trying again, this time getting the shackles lose. (AN: Sue me this chapters gonna be long any way ¬_¬ lol)
Elleaner caught the girl as she fell from her spot at the window, "Gah, Shay, you'd think you'd be lighter then you are -_-' cut back on the cookies girl." (AN" Me: HEY!!!!!!!! Elleaner: *whistles innocently*)
--------------------------------------
Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine.
Losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine.
--------------------------------------
Elleaner floated back down to the ground with the lithe girl in her arms. (AN: I'm not exactly lithe, but…-_-' lol MY FICCIE! ¬_¬) As they hit the ground, Shay groaned and lifted her head up. "What…"
"SHAY!" Elle looked at her young friend, "Y-Your alive! You're all right!" Before Shay could answer Elle flung her arms around her friend.
"HEY! I wanna hug!" Faith hugged bother of her friends, "He he, GROUP HUG! ^_^"
Shay blinked and couldn't help but manage a small smile. She looked around, "Where's Raziel?"
Ashton pointed to the fight, "He's over there. Hopefully he doesn't die."
Faith did an anime fall, "Gee Ashton, that's a nice thing to say."
Ashton: ^^;;
Faith: -.-'
Shay watched the fight, her breath caught up in her chest, "This is exactly like in my dream…"
Everyone just looked at her, "What?"
"No…RAZIEL, BE CAREFUL!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Raz looked around, "Wha…" his young friend caught his eye. {She's all right!!}
"LOOK OUT!"
Raziel looked back at his opponent just in time to get punched in the face. He staggered backwards, but regained balance. Charles smirked darkly.
"I knew you were lying." Raz growled.
"What was your first guess?" Charles said sarcastically.
"I knew it the moment I met you."
----------------------------------------------
Nothing's, all right
Nothing is fine.
----------------------------------------------
It all happened so fast…
And yet, so slowly…
Raziel and Charles kept fighting, there swords moving at inhuman speeds. Charles backed Raziel up to the window and sliced upwards. Raziel took a step back, and was on the edge of the window.
Shay's eyes were wide with fear. This is just like my dream…
"Raziel…"
Charles sliced downwards. Raziel was losing his balance.
"No…"
The vampire stabbed Raziel in the stomach, also pushing him off the edge of the window.
----------------------------------------------
I'm running and I'm crying.
I'm crying…
I'm crying…
I'm crying…
I'm crying…
-----------------------------------------------
Down he fell………
Down……
Down…
Down.
"NO!!!" Ashton and Seto had to hold Shay back from running over. Elle broke into tears, crying on Malik's shoulder. Faith sat there, dumbstruck. Joey and Tristen looked at the ground and Yugi had to force himself to stay put.
(AN: Okay, okay, this part I didn't have planned, I just thought that it would fit pretty well so I added a Linkin Park song in ^^'' heh… lol.)

(It starts with)
One thing / I don't know why,
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time.
_____________________________
Shay finally stopped struggling and collapsed to her knees, sobbing in her hands. Faith broke down and clung to Seto, who hugged her in comfort. Malik was soothing Elle in Egyptian. Neko-Soma was stunned, not knowing what to say or do.

All I know
Time is a valuable thing.

The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal…
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
_____________________________________
Ashton clenched a fist in rage. One of his eyes began to glow red while the other one was blue. The shadow of two dragons appeared behind his back, glowing with a red and blue aura.
__________________________________________________
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory

To lose it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
________________________________________
Elleaner put a hand on Ashton's shoulder. Her eyes were glowing a dark violet and it looked as if her pupils had disappeared. (AN: Think Sailor Saturn kinda, lol. Or possessed eyes) Her hair and Ashton's was moving in an invisible wind.

One thing / I don't know why

In spite the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so (far)
_____________________________
The eye on Yugi's forehead came back, shining very brightly. His puzzle started to glow. A teen that looked exactly like Yugi appeared by Ashton's side, but he was a head taller and his eyes were rimmed with a dark kohl. A golden rim began to glow around his feet and a white mist surrounded the yamis.
_______________________________________
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
____________________________________
The bracelet around Faith's wrist started to glow and beside Elleaner appeared a young girl that looked almost like Faith, but with shorter hair. Her eyes had a menacing look in them as she glared at vampire.

_____________________________________________
The anklet around Neko-Soma's ankle and Malik's millennium rod both started to glow at the same time. Both of there yami's appeared. Ishtar was holding his dagger and Scarlet's hands were surrounded with dark energy balls. Circles began appearing under the yami's feet.
Gold for Yami.
Purple for Elleaner.
Blue for Ishtar.
Black for Secret.
Red for Scarlet. (AN: lol XD)
And a ring of fire appeared around Ashton.

There's only one thing you should know…
I tried so hard

I had to fall, to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter…
_______________________________________
Charles looked at the group, smirking and unfazed by the yami's. "Whose next?" he said.
Everyone was silent.
Suddenly, a voice from the window broke the silence…
"Hey, Charley!"
Charles spun around to see Raziel leaning against the edge of the window. Rage filled his eyes, "How did you…!?"
Raziel was smirking, "Demon's don't die from stabs," Charles looked at his blood stained sword then back at Raz, "and as for me getting back up here…I could have jumped over this castle if I wanted too."
Charles growled, "Well its time to die, devil!"
Raz yawned, "You stole my line!" He jumped out of the window and looked at the vampire, his whole body glowing with a bright scarlet aura. (AN: Okay back to the Papa Roach ^^;;)
--------------------------------------
I…
Can't…
Go…
On…
Li-ving…
This…
Way…
---------------------------------------
Charles glared and put his sword away, charging at Raz. Raziel sidestepped and kicked Charles in the back of the head as he ran past. The vampire twirled around and punched Raz in the stomach. The devil scowled and released his devil trigger. (AN: In other words, he went into a 'devil form' kinda thing…think Devil May Cry, okay!?-.-' lol)
Neko-Soma blinked, watching the two with wide eyes, "Whoa…"
-------------------------------------
Cut my life into pieces
This is my last resort
Suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a f*ck if I cut my arm bleeding
Would it be wrong, would it be right
If I took my life tonight, chances are that I might
Mutilation out of sight
And I'm contemplating suicide
------------------------------------
Faith and Elle looked up, there eyes wide. "Oh my…"
"Shay, SHAY! HE'S ALL RIGHT!!" Elle said excitedly.
Shay sniffed and looked up, "Wha…Raziel…HE'S ALIVE!!" A small smile came across the young girls face and she broke down into tears of joy. (AN: GOD SHE CRIES A LOT! -_-'' Shay: HEY!! *whack* BAKA!! Me: Ow X_X;)
-----------------------------------------
Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine.
Losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Nothing's, all right,
Nothing, is fine
I'm running and I'm crying,
------------------------------------
Raziel dodged a kick from Charles and did a round house, knocking the vampire flat on his ass. (AN: Raz: HA! ^_^ Charles: … Me: ^^;) "Had enough?" The devil asked smugly.
------------------------------------
I
CAN'T
GO
ON
LIVING
THIS
WAY!
------------------------------------
Charles wiped his mouth with his sleeve and spit out a mouth full of blood. Suddenly, he smirked, "I'm just getting started."
Raziel rolled his eyes, "Are all vampire's stupid or just you?"
In the background, Shay did an anime fall.
Charles chuckled, "My, my, my, tsk tsk tsk, you shouldn't talk like that."
"Too bad," Raz said, "Its just the way I am." (AN: Raz: DON'T START SINGING!!!!!!!!!!!! Me/Shay: …damn T_T)
-----------------------------------
Can't go on…
Living this way…
----------------------------------
The two ran up to each other, their fists flying.
Shay was still on the floor, watching the fight and silently praying that nothing bad would happen to Raziel.
"They fight good…" Faith said.
Seto sweat dropped, "You sound like Shang."
"…Why do I suddenly feel like eating Chinese?" (AN: lol, it's a direct quote from Faithy herself ^^ MULAN ^__^ Mysterious as the dark side of the moon!!! Raz: FOR GOD'S SAKE NO MORE SINGING!!!! ___________)
Neko-Soma was watching very intently, gripping her staff and biting her lip. When her cousin asked her why she was acting so oddly, she didn't even answer him.
"You can't win!" Charles hissed through gritted teeth.
"Watch me…"
------------------------------
Nothings all…
-----------------------------
Raziel jumped back and kicked Charles in the stomach. He then kicked him again in the chest, then spun around and kicked him in the chest again. Charles staggered but regained balance. Raziel smirked. He was going to finish this with one kick…
The devil jumped up in the air and kicked the vampire in the face with everything he had. (AN: Think of when Jet Lee kicked the 8 ball in that guys face of Kiss Of The Dragon ^^;; heh, heh lol)
-----------------------------
RIGHT!
----------------------------
Charles flew back and hit the wall, sliding down it and hitting the floor, leaving a bloody streak. Everyone was silent for a while. The only sound was Raziel's boots hitting the floor and the wind surrounding the yami's.
Neko-Soma broke the silence, "…That…was…AWSOME!!!!!!"
Everyone started cheering, whistling, laughing, hugging, and clapping. They were celebrating. Raziel smiled and walked over to the group.
Joey slapped him on the back, "Yo man! You gotta teach me some of yer moves!" He punched the air twice and put his hands in his pockets. Neko-Soma walked over to him, "Ya know what? You're not as bad as I thought you were. You're ok kid!"
Raziel raised an eyebrow, "Kid?"
Everyone laughed.
Raziel looked away from everyone for a moment and looked back at the very back of the group. Shay was standing there, smiling with tears in her eyes. Her hand was in a fist up by her chest, as if clutching an invisible necklace. Her other hand was behind her back.
Even though the group was laughing and celebrating (except for the yami's who were still in there own weird little group), but the sound slowly faded away from the young teenage devil's ears. He smiled at his friend. The young girl blinked, still smiling, which caused a single crystalline tear fall down her cheek.
Raziel made his way through the crowd and back to his friend.
Shay looked up at her friend, "Thank you." she said softly.
"No problem," Raziel said, putting a fist on his hip. "You all right?"
Shay nodded, "You came just in time."
Raziel smiled. Shay smiled back. Just then, a thought came to the demons mind, "Do you…still want to be a vampire?" he asked.
Shay shook her head, looking at he ground, "Not really…" she looked up and added, "Not after so much trouble was caused because of it."
Raziel laughed, "Well, we'll find a way to make you human again."
"Thank you…" suddenly, the young girl flung her arm's around the teen, hugging him. "Thank you for everything." she whispered in his ear.
Raziel didn't do anything for a moment, then hugged her back, "No problem…"
Faith smiled, "Aww, how cute! …And wasn't it what, a year ago that that was her and Ryou?"
Everyone sweat dropped.
"Hey…why didn't he come any way?" Tristen asked. Faith looked at him and shrugged, "We couldn't find him any where." she sighed and folded her arm's across her chest, shaking her head and closing her eyes, "Poor boy…lost to that." Faith jutted a thumb over in Raz's direction. (AN: Raz: HEY!! Faith: ^^'' Me: *sweat drop*)
"Man…whose next?" Malik looked at Joey. Faith looked at them and laughed. Neko-Soma giggled but stopped and turned around.
Charles was twitching.
"Uh…" Neko-Soma tugged on Elle's sleeve. Elle blinked and turned around also.
Charles was now twitching and moving…slowly…he stood up.
Elle and Neko-Soma's eyes grew wide. They were unable to speak and started tugging on Faith's sleeves.
"What, what, what??" Faith turned around and her smile faded, her eyes also growing wide. "Uh…uh…"
Charles looked up, his face beaten and bloody, blood matted in his hair. His clothes were torn and he was smirking. He slowly started walking towards them, a dagger in his hand…
Okay, now the girls screamed. (AN: Raz: took ya long enough. Elle/Faith/Neko-Soma: Shut up .)
Joey, Yugi and Tristen turned around. Shay and Raziel looked up.
"I'll get YOU!" Charles yelled as he lunged at Shay and Raziel. Raziel held the young girl protectively, the red aura glowing very faintly.
A silver circle started to glow around the yami's, followed by a black vortex.
"WE BANISH YOU TO THE SHADOW REALM!!!"
All of the yami's voices rang through out the chamber, followed by a horrible ear splitting screech. Most of the members of the group covered their ears. A black ball engulfed Charles, and the vortex sucked him in.
All of the glowing, the lights, the winds, and the mists stopped.
Once again, there was silence.
The rain outside had stopped. (AN: Bet ya forgot it was raining huh? ^.~ lol)
"…Whoa…" Neko-Soma blinked, "That don't happen everyday, huh?" Joey shook his head. Seto and Faith sweat dropped.
"…We should leave now." Secret said. Faith did an anime fall, "WHO GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO COME OUT?"
"Since when do I NEED permission?"
Faith went into an anime sad world.
Everyone sweat dropped.
"C'mon blue eyes, lets go -_-'" Seto got a hold of his girlfriends arm and started heading for the exit.
"Wait!"
Everyone looked at Shay. Seto stopped, "What?"
Shay pulled away from Raziel and looked at the ground, "I'm sorry if I'm being a bother, but…" she looked up, "Can you…help me find a vial? Please?"
"What kinda vial?" Joey asked.
"I don't know," Shay confessed, "but…I remember Charles saying that…if a vampire drinks a vial of holy blood, then they'll be restored by their blood."
"…In English?" Joey and Tristen said at the same time.
Shay sweat dropped, "I need a vial of angel blood to become human again."
Faith shuddered, "That's sick," she said.
"Well, actually-" Raz started to say, but Ashton covered his mouth, "-_-' no more your highness."
The group sweat dropped.
"If you don't want to help, Fai, then it's ok. I understand."
Faith bit her lip, looking at the ground, "Well…it's not like we killed it, so…I'll help."
Shay smiled, "Yay! ^^" And walked off towards a cabinet.
Everyone split up and started looking through the room for the vial. After about 5 minutes, Joey called out.
"FOUND IT!"
"Joey…That's a glass of kool-aid."
"I knew dat…"
"How the hell did a glass of kool-aid get here anyway?" Raz said after opening a drawer.
Neko-Soma and Joey both shrugged.
"AHA!" Faith jumped up, she was holding a small vial with a blue-ish liquid in it. Shay walked over, "You think this is it?"
Raz and Ash walked over, examining the vial. Ashton reached his hand out to grab it, but got burnt. He yelped and pulled his hand back, "Yea, that's holy blood all right." Raz said casually.
Everyone sweat dropped.
Shay carefully took the vial from Faith and up-corked it. "Well," she said, "Here it goes…"
"Oh come on, its not like its doing much!" Scarlet rolled her eyes, "You're just taking a drink."
Shay gave Scarlet a look and drank the blood. She dropped the vial after it was all gone and closed her eyes.
"…Well?" Faith said.
"It tastes like…milk and honey…o.O;"
Everyone sweat dropped. Raziel did an anime fall.
"What?!" Shay said, "It does!"
Faith laughed nervously and scratched the back of her neck. Raz sighed.
"Okay, now lets get the hell out of the castle."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Everyone was outside the castle. Ishtar and Scarlet had gone into the millennium rod…
Nobody wanted to know why.
Neko-Soma groaned, "Great, now there stuck inside of MY item doing Lord knows what and we have to walked all that way again!"
Suddenly Neko-Soma was picked up again by Ashton and placed on his shoulder. Neko-Soma laughed with Ashton. He spun around and right into Elleaner. She growled. Ashton gulped, "Um…heh ^^;"
Suddenly, Elleaner laughed and hit Ashton playfully on his other shoulder. Ashton gave out a sigh of relief and started walking, followed by the rest of the group. But Shay and Raz stayed behind.
Raz was leaning against the wall. Shay sighed and turned around, "I really can't thank you enough for everything, Raziel."
Raziel shrugged, "I told you, it's not a problem." He pushed himself away from the wall and walked over to her, "Besides, what are friends for?"
Shay smiled and looked at the ground. There was a few seconds of silence.
Raz looked at the rose bush then back at the girl. Hmm…
"Here."
Shay blinked and looked up. Raziel was holding a white rose in front of her. Shay blinked again and looked up at Raziel. A small smile formed on her lips.
Shay walked off and around behind Raz. The demon blinked and turned around.
The young girl was kneeling down by the rosebush. She straitened up and turned around, a red rose in her hand. "Here," She walked back over to the devil and exchanged the red rose for the white one. Raziel laughed lightly.
Shay smiled and looked up at him, "Raziel…"
"Hm?"
The teen wrapped her arms around the boy's neck and kissed him softly on the lips. She pulled away, blushing and looked at the ground. "Not much, but…"
Raziel kissing her passionately on the lips silenced her. (AN: hahaha, you think you're getting some description? WRONG! ¬_¬ lol)
After a moment he broke the kiss. Shay looked up at him, an anime blush (AN: ANIME ^o^ lol) painted across the bridge of her nose.
Raziel smirked, "Just returning the kiss."
The girl laughed and shook her head.
There was another moment of silence.
"Raz…"
"Yea?"
"I love you."
"…I love you too."
