Getting deeper and deeper, all three hikari's wings spread out form there backs, fluttering in the wind. Squinting into the darkness there was nothing to be seen for miles until Yugi dilated his eyes now making it possible to see. Further ahead of them, Yugi spotted a door with weird and agonizing creatures and beings on it. Getting even more further toward this strange door, torches that were unlit on the walls lit up as they walked by.
The torches were very strange. They reminded Yugi of torture weapons from the medieval times. As the door did, the torches had engravings on them. The engravings looked like a story that was depicted on every torch on every wall. The pictures were that of excruciating detail. they looked so realistic that they seemed to jump out at you in 3-D.
Touching the wall, Yugi felt something else carved into it. Looking over to his right Yugi saw the light from the flames of the torches dance upon the new found carvings. The shadows from them looks breathtaking as the pictures of a burning village was visible. Looking forward, Yugi forgot that the others were there and ran to catch up to them.
Yami seemed to read Yugi's teetering thoughts as he looked down and spoke, "The carvings you see there is why YOU are here, Yugi." Getting caught off guard Yugi leapt back with the shock of hearing his own name bounce off the walls and echo through the corridor.
" What do you mean Yami?" Malik asked. " what he means is that the reason your here is because of the carvings inside this sacred place."Marik answered.
"Yes, but why exactly?" Ryou asked confused. " Do you mean that there's some sort of prophecy that says that we're supposed to help you or something?"
" You hit the nail on the head, hikari! There is a prophecy that says how we can change back into normal human beings again. You know, we weren't BORN like this." Bakura said bluntly.
" Bakura is right. This is not how we first were." Yami frowned remembering that he was no longer living again. Pulling on Yami's sleeve Yugi asked curiously, "Well then, what exactly was the prophecy?"
" Well Yugi, it's very complicated but we'll tell you anyway because we've decided that you all need to know."
" It all started over five thousand years ago. Back then, the people believed in us and hunted our kind. As vampires should, we defended the fledglings, younger vampires, and bit anyone who dared to try and kill them. Me, Bakura, and Marik were only fledgling at the time. Everywhere we went to be safe there was always a vampire hunter or more people with steaks and crosses."
FLASHBACK
" Where are we going, Odion?" A small Marik asked once his protector landed safely inside a cave. " Master Marik, it is crucial that you stay here with the other fledglings." Odion scooped up Marik and sat him on top of a rock next to a little Bakura. "Now wait here for me Marik. I will return, don't worry. Make sure that you listen to the elder and make new friends, okay?"
" Okay Odion!" Marik smiled and turned to Bakura, "What's your name?" Not returning the same happy smile Bakura replied, "My name is Bakura, Yours?"
" Marik." Hearing a noise to there right the two boys leapt down from the rock and spotted another kid. "Hello. My names Marik and this is Bakura, what's yours?" Yami, which was the little person below the rock, jumped in shock of Mariks voice. (A/N: I don't really like Mariks new voice nor do I like Maliks that 4kids gave them. It's HORRIBLE!!) " My names Yami, nice to meet you."
END FLASHBACK
" We met that day and then the next say we waited together for our families to return. They never came back." Ryou gasped and Malik turned to look at a very pale Marik. Yami continues as Yugi and the others intently listened, " After waiting for several years, we finally decided on leaving. The elder that was taking care of us was named Rito. Rito supported our decision to leave but told us to be very cautious."
" Getting ready to leave to fly off out of the cave a huge swarm of humans found us. We were, surrounded."
FLASHBACK
" Get them! Get the little vampires!" Villagers screamed, swarming and almost engulfing the three of them. As frightened as any other vampire would be, they panicked and ran for their lives. " What are we going to do?" Yami yelled almost hitting the side of the cave that they were running into in the process. " I don't know!" Bakura squeaked as a rock hit his wing. (A/N: YES SQUEAKED!! Bakura the almighty tomb robber squeaked when he was a kid! ^______________________^)
" This is it guys. I was nice knowing you!" Marik said, his back now to the wall. Yami and Bakura were also backed into the wall awaiting there own deaths. Closing their eyes, the villagers enclosed them and savagely burnt, bruised, broke, and even bitten them. Battered up and weak the mayor that held the steaks for quite a while, lifted it into the air and was about to plunge it through Bakura's heart when all of the sudden the elder, Rito, knocked into the man sending him flying.
Taken aback the villagers went to help him. Turning around, Rito yelled, "Go know you three! Hurry and fly before they come back! The future rests in your hands!!" Frightened and touched by Rito's kind act the three of them got up and flew away. Looking back they saw poor Rito in the middle of the villagers, being slowly dragged down to the floor. After beating ten humans, he was tired and the rest of the villagers huddled around him as the mayor held up the steak.
High above his head it was held there until finally it struck Rito's heart. Crying hysterically the three of them saw the last of Rito's tan face and blue hair until his entire body want to ashes, scattering in the wind.
END FLASHBACK
" We never saw him again after that. Afterward we decided to find a place to stay. Seeking out Bakura's sister whom was still alive. Her name was Serena." Yami paused and let Bakura say the rest that was needed to be said.
" She was my oldest sister. I had five. Two were not a vampire but the other three, which included Serens, were. The other two were both twin vampires. They died on the journey to the cave, then Serena and me were separated." Bakura started to stare at his feet. Malik looked at him and started to feel sorry for him. Bakura looked back up into his eyes and Malik felt his face burn up as he blushed. Now Malik was looking at the ground. Don't get him wrong he liked his yami, the nickname he had given Marik, but he liked him like a brother. As for Bakura, whelp lets just say that that's alittle crush. Putting his attention back on his crush, Malik started to listen again.
" I figured that she was still alive so we went to go look for her. Searching for several weeks we found her. After acouple of days with her she began to teach us the ways of a vampire in our initiation. Before the initiation began she told us of a prophecy."
FLASHBACK
(A/N: Yeah I know allot of flashbacks but don't let that be a set back!^_~ Also the official pairings are Y/YY B/M R/YM. Hope you like them!!) " Bakura, my brother, you and your friends before going into the initiation you need to first hear the prophecy. It has been passed down from superior to fledglings." Serena held out her amulet which she squeezed as she told them the prophecy.
" I is said that three half breeds, whose blood was not fully sucked out of them, will save us form these hideous beasts. Under a lunar eclipse they will hold up the rare bloodstained stone, freeing us all." Serena finished. " That's all?" Yami asked. Serena smiled and shook her head. " Our powerful god, Sankuragenka(A/N: MADE UP!!), will choose the three to get the directions to the bloodstained stones. If they do not succeed then them and all of there love ones will burn in hell after they die, forever.
At this statement the three fledglings smiled. " Sister, I promise I'll find the three half-breeds even if I have to search for the rest of my life!" Determined they walked inside to their own initiation.
END FLASHBACK
Gazing into space Yugi was deep in thought about his own initiation. Questions like, is it tough? Or will it be easy? What will I have to endure? Ryou shook Yugi to get him out of his 'trance'. Smiling at Yugi, Ryou turned to look at Marik. 'He looks awfully exotic. I mean he looks like Malik but his hair and his smell is definitely different. Even if I went out with Malik and dumped him because I wasn't actually attracted to him it doesn't mean that I wouldn't like to be with Marik. For some odd reason I'm attracted to him... but I can't seem to put my finger on it. Wonder what Bakura will say? Marik's practically his best friend and Bakura and me are just........like brothers.' Ryou ended his train of thoughts as they walked into the room of the initiation.
The room was circular and had many different weapons and doors on the wall which was very odd even for vampires. Staring at a particularly shiny weapon, Yugi tried not to throw up from the blood that was still at on the dirty edges. Just as if the person who was cut and most likely killed were now inside the sword. " You will meet each one of our most powerful Gods. They will exploit your most frightful fears. Then you will have to go through a maze to find a treasure chest. Hurry now and go through that door." Marik pointed to a door next to a chainsaw on the wall. Giving Ryou alittle wink and a quick peck on the cheek Marik stepped away to let them pass through.
" We will be on the other end of the maze. Good luck." All three of them bowed and said there fair wells hopefully for just a short amount of time. Before they set off Yami quickly followed Marik's actions and gave Yugi a kiss on the cheek and a wink for good luck. Bakura went over to Malik and gave him a brief hug. ' Hmm he smells like blackberries and spices.' Malik thought as the embrace ended and he stared into Bakura's eyes. ' I hope he's going to be okay. I don't want to loose my hikari and my crush now do I?' Giving a grin Bakura stopped the negative thoughts and waved goodbye.
The door immediately slammed shut and Ryou, Malik, and Yugi were left alone in the dark. Feeling a bit scared, Ryou clung onto Malik who pushed him off. He might of a major crush on Bakura Ryou was not like that to him. At least not anymore. While Ryou was on the floor he spotted a torch on the wall. Rubbing his back Ryou slowly stood. ' Gosh, Marik wouldn't do that to him! Malik's just alittle bit crabby.' Standing straight up now, Ryou's torch was set aflame and now that they could see they were ready to go.
Yugi and Malik picked up there own torches also and they were immediately set aflame. They were ready to go and battle these so called, 'Gods'.
