A/N - When I said it would take me to write the next part I didn't mean it
would take me this long!
Part of the reason it took so long was because when I actually had time to write I couldn't remember some of the things in previous chapters. So basically I had to reread the entire thing and found a lot of mistakes (actually I was surprised there weren't a lot more since I normally write at around 3am after being awake all day). There's a really bit mistake at the beginning of chapter 2 that I'm surprise no one pointed out, lol. That and any other mistake will be fixed as soon as I have time.

"Governor are you sure it's wise that you come with us?" Commodore Ishtar asked Governor Mutou for the fifth time since departing from the island they called home the day before. They didn't exactly know where the pirate ship was heading but rumors were abound that the legendary ship the Duel Monster had been sighted nearby the same day as the kidnappings and that it was now after a hidden treasure.
"Those pirates," the governor spat with distaste as he paced back and forth on the deck of his ship staring out at the sea as with some small hope that the pirate ship would appear on the horizon, "have my grandson as their prisoner. I refuse to sit at home while a rescue attempt is being made."
"I understand sir," the commodore replied before leaving the governor's cabin. 'That boy!' he angrily thought. 'He disobeyed me and this is what happened! When we find them he'll be lucky to leave his home for the rest of his life!'
*~*~*
"Sis, are you okay?" Malik asked with concern the next morning as he approached Isis who was talking to Seto. More like she was demanding that he find her a place to stay from now on since she had no clue where Captain Yami was.
"Apparently your sister feels that we seem to lack on accommodations around here," Seto told the blonde smugly.
"What happened?" Malik asked with alarm. He hated to think that just when he was beginning to trust the pirates they would hurt his sister.
"I think there is a wild animal on this boat," she explained to her brother. "I heard howling last night." Seto, hearing all of this laughed before walking way to scold his bad puppy for being so loud the night before.
"Oh is that all?" Malik replied before getting a glossy look in his eyes. "I had a great night." It didn't take Isis long to figure out what had occurred last night with her brother.
"Who is he?" she asked with a grin. It didn't surprise her to learn about her brother's attraction to the same sex. In her opinion Malik had always been kind of girly.
"Marik," he told her dreamily.
"Marik!" Isis cried. "But he's crazy!"
"I know," Malik, replied with a giggle while Isis stared at him as if he was insane.
"I'm happy for you," Isis told him with a gentle smile before becoming serious. "You do realize that you have to go home at some point don't you?"
"Yeah," Malik replied with a sigh before brightening again. "But I plan to have as much fun as possible until that happens!"
*~*~*
"You need some kind of jewelry or something to wear around your neck," Bakura mused to Ryou as they lay side by side on their bed.
"Give me something from the treasure we're about to get," Ryou replied with a smile. "Although something around your neck would be equally good."
"Well I am a master thief. I'm sure I can find a way to steal something for the both of us," Bakura told his love with a smirk.
"Don't get in trouble!" Ryou begged. "I'll follow you anywhere but please this is our home, we both know it. And try and stay on the good side of Yami."
"Fine," Bakura replied with a pout. It was amazing how whipped Bakura was with Ryou considering his past.
"Good." Ryou leaned over and gently kissed Bakura on the lips. Things had begun heating up between the two when a rapid knock was heard at the door.
"What?!" an annoyed Bakura yelled at whoever dared to disturb his time with Ryou.
The door opened and Marik stuck his head inside. "Don't blame me, Yami decided to reduce me to his lap dog and do all his dirty work for him," he informed the lovebirds. "Don't worry, I'll get him for this."
"What does his highness want?" Bakura inquired raising his eyebrows.
"Uhh . . . "Marik replied with a blank look on his face. "Hang on a minute." With that Marik disappeared while Bakura rolled his eyes at Ryou who giggled at him.
"How did he captain a ship?" Bakura asked causing Ryou to laugh harder. Before he could reply however the door burst open and Marik rushed in again and flopped down on the bed.
"We're naked under here!" Bakura cried crying to kick Marik off the bed all while trying to shield Ryou's body with his own from Marik.
"Can I join?" Marik asked devilishly, a hungry look in his eyes.
"No!" Bakura cried.
"Please?"
"What about Malik?" Ryou asked innocently. He knew that the blonde pirate had taken a liking to his friend. He was right too as that froze Marik's advances.
"Can't you guys take a joke?" he complained as he sat up and sat on the edge of the bed. He was still too close for Bakura's liking but there was little that the white-haired pirate could do at that moment. "I found out why Yami wanted you."
"Why?" Bakura asked. The sooner Marik delivered his message the sooner he would leave, which is what Bakura wanted.
"There's a meeting."
"About what?"
"Beats me," Marik shrugged. "But I think it's a planning meeting. Isis has some info that she wants to tell us about the Millennium Items we're after."
"Fine," Bakura growled. "Now get out of here so we can get dressed."
"You sure are grumpy in the morning," Marik commented with a laugh. "One would figure after getting laid last night you'd be more happy."
"Like you?" shot back Bakura.
"Yep!" Marik grinned as he stood and walked out of the room.
"You can't kill him while he's still useful," Ryou said being able to read his lover's mind.
"Damn."
*~*~*
"I'm sure you all want to know why you're gathered here," Yami said as he looked around the room at the pirates he had told Marik to get. Beside himself, there was Seto, Bakura, Ryou, Marik and Isis. They were standing around the table where they normally ate their meals. On the table was a large map of the area.
"The island you seek is here," Isis told them, pointing to a place on the map where there appeared to be nothing except for endless water. "There will be a cave there and inside the items will be found."
"What about the curse?" Ryou asked. Bakura had filled him in on all the information that Shadi and Isis had told the three of them the day before. Likewise Seto had also been informed through Yami.
"There's no such thing as curses," Seto scoffed.
"I would think that anyone with roots in Egypt would believe in curses," Isis replied smugly.
"How do you know that?" Seto asked with a hiss.
"I know a lot of things," Isis replied and she indicated to the golden necklace around her neck. "This necklace allows me to see the past and the future."
"Impossible!" Bakura growled. "If you can see the future why were you surprised when you saw your brother yesterday?"
"I suggest you believe in the powers of the Millennium Items Master Thief," Isis warned. "The items chose their owners not the other way around. As for Malik, rarely do I look my own future or that of my kin. It brings about far to painful memories."
"You mean that's one of the Millennium Items?" Yami asked with great interest. He could practically hear the thoughts in Bakura's head, who was currently planning on a way to steal necklace from Isis.
"Yes! This is the Millennium Necklace," Isis informed them. "It is one of the three items that have been recovered and I am its owner."
"So what makes you think we won't slit your throat and steal it for ourselves?" Marik asked her.
"I'm sure my brother would completely understand if that that happened," Isis replied as she stared at Marik who was scowling. That was the second time in a mere hour that someone had threatened him with Malik and it worked too. He was going soft and he didn't like it.
"I don't care about your brother," Bakura threaten as he pulled out a dagger and leaned across the table at her. "What's going to stop me from killing you and taking your precious necklace?"
"The fact that Ryou is also a good friend of mine," Isis calmly replied and Bakura sunk back also scowling.
"Enough you two," Yami demanded. "This is my ship remember and she will not be harmed while on it."
"Fine," Marik and Bakura replied together. They were both worn out too much from the night before to argue with Yami at the moment.
"We should be there by this evening," Seto said as he studied where Isis had pointed to on the map. Like Yami he figured it was best for them to work with the Egyptian girl to get to the treasure as fast as possible. There was also the fact that only he seemed to remember that they had a kidnapped governor's grandson and commodore's son aboard their ship, and who knew how long it would be until they could escape the fleet.
"Good," Yami replied as he nodded his approval before turning to Isis. "Is it safe to approach the cave tonight or is it better to wait until morning?"
"Morning should be better but I fear that time is running out," Isis gravely warned them. "The Trident is catching up, by midday they will reach Canida."
"Let's just dump the rats overboard in a life boat," Seto growled.
"No!" Yami ordered, while Marik had a look of murder directed at Seto on his face. Seto merely shrugged his shoulders in disappointment. He knew they wouldn't have gone for that idea but there had been no harm in trying.
"So what's the plan Yami?" Bakura asked. He agreed with Seto's plan. "Even if we get the items before the Trident catches up to us, there's still the little problem of getting back home without getting caught. I'm assuming you don't plan on leaving them on the island while we make our getaway, correct?"
"I'll think of something about them later," Yami grumbled. He didn't want to think about letting Yugi go so soon, just when Yugi was beginning to show some signs that he also felt the connection between them. He secretly envied Bakura and Seto who did not have to get up their lovers. A glance at Marik told him that the blonde pirate was currently feeling the same way. "Right now I want everyone to get some rest. We're going after the Millennium Items tonight!"
*~*~*
"Sirs?" one of the sailors said upon approaching the governor and the commodore who were currently on the deck of the Trident waiting for all the sailors that they had sent out to return from the village of Canida. They sent the sailors aboard the ship as they knew that the sailors could gather more information quicker than the soldiers who would not have received a warm welcome in the village.
"Report!" Commodore Ishtar stiffly ordered.
"The ship . . . the Duel Monster, wa-was seen he-here yesterday," the sailor told them, nervous at reporting to the two most powerful people in the Caribbean. He knew that he better report good news or else since both the Commodore and the Governor were becoming increasing annoyed at how long it was taking to find the pirates that kidnapped Yugi and Malik. "I-it was here for a short time th-then it le-left again."
"So?" Governor Mutou asked, not realizing what the sailor was trying to tell them. The Commodore on the other hand knew the importance of what that met.
"You may go now," Commodore Ishtar told the relived sailor who scurried off. The Commodore then turned his attention to the governor.
"The Duel Monster is the most feared pirate ship in the Caribbean," he quickly informed his long time friend. "The pirate that escaped the same night that when Malik and Yugi went missing was Bakura, a former member of its crew. Likewise upon interrogating the crew of that other ship we captured we learned Marik, another former member of the crew of the Duel Monster, captained it. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that the Duel Monster was also in the area that night. It would appear that the Fearsome Four have reunited."
"Who?"
"The four most feared and ruthless pirates that ever sailed in the Caribbean. It has been known that men tremble in the mere mention of their names."
"Are you saying those are the ones that have Yugi and your son?" the Governor asked worriedly.
"It appears so," Commodore Ishtar replied nodding his head. "But fear not. I will personally make sure that they all pay if Yugi or Malik are harmed in anyway."
*~*~*
"But I want to talk to my sister!" Malik insisted as Marik picked him up, slung him over his shoulder and carried him to his room.
"No you don't," Marik replied devilishly. At soon as Yami declared the meeting over he immediately went and sought out Malik who had been talking to Yugi under the watchful eye of Jou. Likewise Ryou and Bakura had already returned to their own room since neither of them had got a lot of sleep the night before.
"I don't?" Malik asked in a confused voice.
"Nope," Marik told him with a grin as he carried into his room, while kicking the door close behind them. He then dropped Malik on the bed and pounced on him before Malik could protest.
*~*~*
"What's wrong little one?" Yami asked as he walked over to Yugi who had a sad look on his face.
"Oh, nothing," Yugi quickly replied and Yami gave him a look that said he didn't believe him. Therefore Yugi sighed and told him the truth. "Well I was talking to Malik when Marik suddenly came along and carried him off. Ryou is also missing half the time, I guess I just miss talking to my friends."
"What about me?" Yami asked with amusement.
"Huh?"
"Am I not your friend?" Yami asked, making himself clear and making Yugi beam in the process. It never occurred to Yugi that Yami would consider him his friend.
"Of course you are!"
"Then lets go back to my cabin and talk," Yami said with a grin. "We need to get some rest anyway since we'll be busy tonight."
"What's happening tonight?" Yugi asked while he followed Yami across the deck towards his cabin.
"We get the Millennium Items," Yami told him with a grin, he purposely left out the part where Isis had informed them that the British Navy was not far behind them. Although he would never admit it to anyone he was afraid that when Yugi found out that the fleet was so close to them, Yugi would want to leave and go back home where he belonged. Yami didn't think he could deal with losing Yugi so soon so he chose to push those worries aside for the time being.
"Yay!" Yugi cried as they entered Yami's cabin. Yugi quickly flopped down on Yami's bed and made himself comfortable.
Yami couldn't help himself as he lay down next to Yugi and gathered the younger boy in his arms. "Yami, what are you do--" Yugi began to ask but he was cut off when Yami quickly kissed him. After a few moments Yugi began kissing Yami back when Yami suddenly broke off the kiss.
"I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that," Yami quickly said and he tried looking away but Yugi stopped him.
"You should have done it sooner," Yugi softly replied and he kissed Yami again, but once again Yami broke apart the kiss. "Why did you stop?" Yugi complained.
"Yugi there's something you have to know," Yami began with a sad sigh and Yugi looked at him seriously. "The Trident is catching up to us. It's the flag ship of the navy and no doubt Commodore Ishtar is on board."
"Oh," was all that Yugi could say and Yami could tell that he was about ready to cry. "But I don't want to leave just yet!"
"I don't want you to leave either," Yami told him and he hugged Yugi tightly. The pair stayed that way all afternoon and only moved when there was a knock on the door indicating they had arrived.
Part of the reason it took so long was because when I actually had time to write I couldn't remember some of the things in previous chapters.
