Disclaimer: I do not own YuGiOh. Maybe next time… nah.

I seem to be really drawn into the fic today. I am completing chappies so much faster! Yay me!

Umm… yeah… about the last part of ch7… Marik is just a REALLY lonely guy who happens to have raging hormones. LOL Yeah, well, in this chappie Marik goes a little crazy and his hormones are on like full blast so uh… if you don't like the idea of Marik taking advantage of Tea, you might want to skip that part. Marik doesn't like her or anything… he's just like those uh, rapist dudes who're in it for the feeling.

Summary: It's October once again in Domino City, and everyone is preparing for another Halloween, including a group of vampires who've recently settled in a graveyard. After several attacks on innocent civilians, a group of slayers get together to try to hunt down the Undead. But unknown to them, Bakura (a vampire) has fallen in love with Tea, a mortal. However, Malik and the others aren't about to let another person be murdered, and Tea's trapped in the middle of it all. Who will win, the vampires or the slayers?

Bakura x Tea

Chapter Eight – Rescue Mission Impossible

Malik, Yami, and Kaiba were once again wandering around the city looking for vampires.

"You have your gun, right, Kaiba?"

"For the tenth time, YES!!!"

"Jeez, I'm just making sure," Malik replied. He had his flashlight in his left hand and his right hand was on the pocket with the gun in it. Yami was wearing extra cross necklaces and extra garlic, and Kaiba was still carrying his briefcase.

"Why do you carry that thing around?" Yami asked him.

"Because I feel like it."

"Yeah, I bet you feel naked without it," Malik teased.

"Oh shut up," Kaiba growled, swinging his briefcase at the Egyptian.

'Actually, I can't even go to the bathroom without my briefcase…'

They walked a couple of blocks past the movie theater where Mokuba was attacked. They were just about to turn a corner when Yami spotted her.

"A woman running away! Maybe it's a vampire!" he cried.

'What a dope…'

"Doesn't he know when to shut up?"

The woman turned around for a split second. It was just enough time for Kaiba to see her face.

"It's the woman vampire who attacked Mokuba!!!" he shouted. "Get her!!!"

Malik and Yami ran after Kaiba, who was tailing the woman. He pulled out his gun and aimed for her legs.

He shot her in the foot. She collapsed to the ground, and the three boys surrounded her, trying to figure out what to do.

Her stomach didn't feel good. She was still hungry, and she was afraid that apple had been rotten. Marik was watching her out of the corner of his eye. He was waiting for the right moment to make his first move. He wasn't very patient, and he sort of wanted to get back at Bakura for even dating this girl. He decided he would take his anger out on her by toying with her.

"Don't you have to eat?" Tea asked him. She didn't like how he never took his eyes off of her, or how he had that lustful look he'd had back in the car that one time.

"Duke is bringing me back some food," he replied calmly. "No matter what, I am not leaving. I was given the job of watching you."

'Pervert… I bet he chose the job of making sure I didn't escape. What do they want with me anyway?'

"Why are you keeping me alive?" she questioned him. Seeing as how she was distracted, Marik thought that this would be the perfect time to approach her.

"We need a human sacrifice," he replied, walking slowly towards her. She didn't seem to have noticed; she was too busy trying to figure out what his words meant.

"We are the chosen group of vampires this year. The chosen group brings back a live human that will be sacrificed alive to Dracula so that we may continue… to exist."

'Wait… there are more vampires?! There must be thousands of them all over Japan! What am I going to do? Oh I wish Malik, Yami, and the others were here! They would know what to do…'

Marik was extremely close to her now. He could tell she was so far off in her own little world that she was oblivious to her surroundings. She also hadn't noticed that he'd backed her into a corner.

"You know, my dear," he whispered into her ear, "you shouldn't think so much."

She snapped back to reality only to find that Marik had completely backed her into a corner and he was running his hands up and down her body.

"Get away from me!" she cried. Marik just crushed her back into the wall and held her down by her shoulders.

"You can't do anything," he said, smirking at the fear in her eyes. "And I can kill you… or bite you at any moment. Do you want that?"

Tea didn't know what to do. She really thought she was just going to die. She couldn't figure out why she had to be the one to go through this! Why her? Why not someone who'd stolen or something?

"I am asking you a question, woman! Answer me!" he said, shaking her hard.

She shook her head. She couldn't die… she'd be letting her friends down. She had to figure a way out of this…

"Then you won't fight against me, you got that?!"

Tea shook her head. She began to cry. This was so unfair! She truly wished her parents were here right now. She never knew just how much she really missed them. Sure, she missed them, but she never cried over it.

Marik pressed his cold lips against hers forcefully. She choked back sobs and closed her eyes.

'Where are you, you guys?! Find me now!! Save me!'

She continued to just lean against the wall as Marik licked her ear.

'What is it with guys and girls' ears?'

She was trying to keep her mind off the current situation and think about other things.

'Think about Yugi, Yami, Serenity, or Joey… Ewe, he's licking my neck! No – don't think about that! Think about… the good times you had with your friends! Although I'll never have any of those good times again…'

When he shoved his tongue onto her lips, she kept them tightly closed. But Marik wasn't going to let her get away with anything.

"You'd best open your lips and start kissing back or you're going to regret it dearly. And don't say you don't care what happens to you because you're friends won't have a happy ending."

He'd struck a nerve.

'My friends… I have to keep them safe… even if it means…'

Tea opened her mouth wide enough for him to slide his tongue in. She couldn't stand it. She didn't like how he was kissing her, and she didn't like the way his hands were roaming around her body.

When he finally pulled away, she sunk to the floor. She pulled out that piece of paper and pen and began to scribble something down. She quickly shoved them back into her pocket when he turned around.

"Stand," he commanded.

Tea stood up weakly.

"Now comes the fun part," he said. He pulled off his shirt, shoes, and socks.

She backed away.

"W-what are you doing?" she asked. She could hear thunder start outside. It also began to rain.

"What does it look like?" he asked irritated. "I'm going to have some fun with you; I can't let a perfect girl go to waste."

'Oh no! He's not!'

"I thought… but you said…"

"I am aware of what I said," he replied, unzipping his pants. "Now, will you stop your complaining?"

Tea closed her eyes. She was alone in a room with a naked vampire… not a good situation to be in. She suddenly felt him press him body up against hers.

She cracked an eye open and Marik laughed at her fear.

"Raise up your arms," he said. Tea just gave him a confused look. "Just do it."

Shamefully, Tea raised up her arms. She couldn't believe she was sinking down this low… but she had to remember it was for her friends.

"You know, I would've just ripped off your clothes but I think you'll need them."

He threw her PJs onto the floor and looked at her.

"Oh what fun…"

Tea felt her back hit the cold metal floor. She would've screamed for help, but Marik was threatening the safety of her friends. She felt like her mind was going to blow from all of the stress.

"Don't worry… this won't hurt a bit…"

Was there nobody around to help her? Nobody at all?

Bakura was about to jump out of the bushes and attack a jogger, but he sensed something was wrong…

'I wonder if the others are okay… Wait… Mai!'

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Let me out," Mai hissed at them. The boys had thrown her into an old port-a-potty (gross…) and they had locked the door. They were standing outside in the cold rain, but they weren't about to let her go.

"Where is Tea?"

"I don't know whom you're talking about!" she lied.

"Yes you do! Now tell me: what did you do with her?!" Malik yelled.

"That's none of your business."

All three boys turned around to see Bakura. He'd felt the distress of his friend and had come to help.

Before any of them could move, Bakura had all three of them down on the ground. He set Mai free, and then both vampires threw the boys into the port-a-potty and flew away.

"Gross," Yami said.

"Where would I hide if I was a vampire…?" Yami wondered.

"In a graveyard," Malik suggested. All three of them looked at each other.

"THE DOMINO CEMETERY!!!"

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

When Mai, Bakura, and Duke returned to the "shack", they found Marik leaning against one wall, and Tea was sitting in the corner of another two walls. She had her head on her knees and her entire body was shaking.

She didn't even look up when they entered. The last few hours kept replaying over and over again in her mind.

"And since tonight went so well," he'd said, "we'll do it again tomorrow."

She shuddered. She'd been scarred for life, she figured that much.

Bakura stared at her for a while. There was something about her… but he just couldn't put his finger on it. She seemed more shaken up than a victim normally is.

'Bet Marik scared the stuffing out of her, that's what it is…'

Suddenly, all five of them heard a gunshot.

"What the hell…?"

"What's going on out there?" Marik asked.

"I don't know… Let's just hope it isn't Malik and his little gang of 'slayers'."

'Let's hope it is… Somebody rescue me…'

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Yami, Kaiba, and Malik were on their way over to the cemetery. They had just entered the park when they heard a scream coming from the playground. They rushed over to the jungle gym.

Two small toddlers were huddled in the tallest tower, and a large wolf was barking at them. Yami's jaw dropped to the ground.

"It's the wolf that killed Yugi…"

"What? How can you tell?"

"Are you sure?!"

"Yes. I know it."

Yami snatched Malik's gun and shot the wolf. The two kids screamed.

"I think it's dead…"

Yami approached the wolf and kicked it in the side.

"Yep, it's dead."

"Hey," Kaiba called out, "are you guys okay?"

"Yeah… thanks mister," the little girl replied. The little boy, who appeared to be her brother, stood up.

"Where's my momma?" he asked, sticking his thumb in his mouth.

"I don't know… Come on," Malik said, picking up the little girl, "we've got to get you guys home."

Yami led the way to the police station, and Malik and Kaiba, each holding a kid, followed.

In all of the confusion with the two kids and the wolf, the idea of rescuing a certain brunette was forgotten.

Yes, that was a very short chappie. But that will be the only short chappie. Sorry about all of the Marik junk, but Bakura will have his uh revenge, never fear. What will happen to Tea? Will her friends return the kids in time to save her? Or will she end up on the alter in front of thousands of vampires as a live sacrifice? Find out soon…

Please review! Sayonara!
