Chapter 14:By man his blood be shed

Bakura's PoV

I ran to him when I saw him standing on the banister. Then he fell and that bastard caught him.

'How dare he even put a FINGER ON HIM!'

He gasped when Malik stuck the cross in his heart. He stumbled backwards and fell on the floor. His blood poured out onto the floor and on Malik. I flew over to them. Vlad was hugging Malik to his chest. I felt a surge of jelousy wash over me and was surprised when Malik hugged him back.

The asshole could barely speak.

"Malik ... why? I loved ... you ..."

Malik shook his head and touched his cheek. "If you had loved me ... you would have won my love ... instead you tried to force me ... you never loved me ... you lusted for me ... that's different."

Vlad coughed up blood and smiled. "It was an obssession. Malik ... I ask you one thing before I die ... kiss me ..."

I was ready to snap Vlad's head off! How dare he even think of it!

Malik actually hesitated! He looked at Vlad, then at the cross. Then he looked away. "Vladimir ... I can't ... you killed my sister ... and you've done this before ... you tried to take advantage of me ... I hate you for that."

Vlad looked away. "I see ... I did all of that because I loved you ... I swear it ..."

Malik stood up and looked down at him. He searched his pockets for something.

"Vlad ... you tried to kill Bakura ... no one gets away with that!"

Malik took out matches and lit one. "I'm sorry Vlad. But not sorry enough to spare you from hell. Burn asshole!!!"

With that he threw the match at Vlad who had closed his eyes in resignation.

I watched his body burn with satisfaction.

'Finally that asshole is dead.'

What I didn't count on was Fergis swooping down on Malik. He slashed Malik's chest. Malik was thrown back onto me. I gave Malik to Seto as I flew to Fergis.

"Fucking bastard, son of a million bitches, piece of rotten shit!!!!"

He looked up just as I grabbed his neck and ripped his throat in half.

Then I saw Mary flying towards me. She slashed my left cheek. I punched her and Lucifer took her off my hands.

Seto was at the doorway of the dungeons Malik in his arms. I flew over as fast as my wings would allow me.

He went inside and I followed him. He placed Malik on the floor, his head on Seto's lap.

"Malik ... don't please ... try ... hold on ... I'll find a way ..."

Seto froned, "The cuts are deep, two ribs are broken as in his left arm. He's lost a lot of blood Bakura. I don't think he'll-"

"SHUT UP!" I cut him off. "Just shut up! Malik ... please ...."

Malik smiled feebily up at me, "You can't keep my body this time ... I'm mortal ..."

Comprehension dawned on Seto's face for some reason.

I looked back at Malik, "Malik ... there's no need ... I love you ... try and hold on ..."

"Kura ... I love you ... benhibik ..."

Seto smacked my head. "Idiot! He's mortal!"

"I KNOW THAT YOU BASTARD!!! HE'S GONNA DIE!!!"

Seto looked at me incredulously, "Idiot! You're a vampire! He's a mortal!"

I understood and immediately scratched my neck. Blood poured out as I bent over Malik. I lifted his head up a little.

"Drink ..."

I felt Malik's mouth on my neck. He sucked out some blood then fell back limply on the floor, his eyes closed.

"Malik!!! Malik, are you okay?"

Suddenly his eyes snapped open. He grabbed my neck and bit down on it. I saw his fingernails turn into claws, felt his teeth turn into fangs, his wings sprouted from his back.

Then he let go of me. His wounds were fully healed. He grinned and helped me up. "Kura ... I'm so back! And so fucking ready to kick ass!"

I laughed, "That's good."

Marik frowned as he walked out. He had that 'I'm ready to fuck you up' look on his face.

'I missed that look.'

He walked out and flew over to Mary. He tapped her on the shoulder and she turned around and stopped strangling Shadi when she saw Malik transformed. Malik grinned and grabbed her neck. He then reached in her chest and pulled out her heart. She didn't even scream or yell or anything, she didn't have the time to.

Murdor was still watching from the top of the stairs. He froze when he saw Mary fall to the floor. Malik took a bite out of her still thumping heart and spit it out. He threw the rest to him. It landed at his feet. Murdor just kept staring at Malik with a blank expression and I knew he was boiling with anger.

Malik smiled a wide, fake smile. "Oh hello Murdor ... looks like you're the only one left. So now ... it's just you ... and me!

A/N: Yes I know! IT'S SHORT! Don't kill me! There I killed Marik ... see he's dead now! LOL I had you fooled, ne? He IS technically dead ... I told you he'd die .. but not what kind of DIE! "laughs and gets smacked by people with Marik plushies" SORRY! But it was funny reading your review ... anyway .. the last pure bloods left ... Marik versus Murdor ... who will survive??? Even i don't know! Any ideas?
