Chapter Eight
"This itches." Anzu complained as she scratched at the cloak Yami had given her, and the two boys.
"Deal with it." was the brisk reply.
Anzu nearly slapped Yami in indignation, but she remembered the danger they were in.
"What're these cloaks for, anyway?" Jou asked, as they walked towards the castle.
"They'll protect you from any magic a mage throws at you. There are many guards at Master's castle, and they all possess magic. You three, being mortal, will not be able to protect yourselves without those cloaks."
"Why can't you just teleport us to wherever we're going?"
Yami pursed his lips in annoyance. "It is not in my magical ability to transport three mortals with me."
"Oh."

The pain. It was so intense. Yugi didn't know if he could stand it anymore. He could barely hear Pegasus laughing, but his main focus was the pain.
Suddenly, it stopped.
Yugi slowly cracked his eyes open. The sight that met him was astounding. A white haired boy, the same age as Yugi, only taller, was standing between the captive and the captor. Blue light radiated from his body.
"Bakura, get out of the way! You are nothing more than a lowly slave, with little magic. You don't stand a chance against me!"
"Master, the boy will not live through the power withdrawal. Please spare him." The white-haired boy murmured.
"Never! His magic WILL be mine!"
Bakura lowered his head sadly. "Father, that Sennen Eye has made you go too far. Please stop." (yes, yes, I know Pegasus isn't Bakura's father but in this story he is)
"Out of the way, and don't you dare call me father! I am Master to you, now!" Pegasus shouted. He threw white balls of power at his son.
Bakura quickly conjured a blue shield around himself, but it was not enough. Yugi could only watch as the white-haired boy was slammed against the wall. Suddenly, the door burst open, and Seto came rushing in.
"Ryou-chan!" Seto cried. He quickly helped the albino to his feet, while glaring daggers at Pegasus.
"So." Pegasus's eyes were narrowed. "The supposedly faithful Seto has been 'friendly' with the traitor. You will pay for that." Pegasus then looked at Yugi. "I will deal with you later."
"No one hurts my love." Seto knew he stood no chance against the Master, but that thought had slipped his mind in his anger.

"Would you three speed it up?" Yami hissed.
"Easy for you to say!" Jou huffed as they struggled to keep up. They had finally made it to Pegasus's room, but not without being bombarded with magic from the guards. Fortunately, Yami was able to blast them away, and the magical cloaks Anzu, Jou, and Honda wore protected them.
"Come on." Taking a deep breath, Yami pushed open the door to Pegasus's room. His breath caught in his throat at what he saw.
