Demon of Faith: cowers ands throws tissue paper Don't hurt me, I didn't make that stupid movie! The American's did it, it's all there fault! returns to normal Disturbing? What did I do? I can't remember and to be honest, I can't be bothered to go and read it. It's midnight!
DojomistressAmbyChan - Is it Jou? Or is it Malik? Read and find out, plus you're right, people are not going to be happy.
Whimsical Lady - I'm glad you're happy, I know she should be scared but I wasn't much into a writing a suppression fic here she becomes their slave. A bit like those Bakura/Ryou stories where the Yami beats the Hikari and the Hikari's terrified. I'll write one if that's what you like. As for the werewolf, he's not an oc (what's canon btw) and you'll see plenty of him. Here's an update to celebrate the end of you're exams.
norestar-angel - Here's an update :-)
Yami no Aeris - I'm so happy you like it. :-)
Magicman/Smokegirl - Sorry about the crazy scientists, my logical mind is currently on vacation till it has to come back for exams :-) Anyway, the werewolf isn't Jou, read on and prosper my friend.
StarlightMagic - No, there isn't some dangerous plot behind the werewolves appearance, but it does fit into an evil plot. But that comes later ;-) I don't know if Anzu's going to get attacked, I haven't written it yet if that makes you feel any better.
Browneyeskari - Riight, votings closed but thanks anyway.
Moon Struck Sea - I'm not if this update was as fast as the others but here it is. I don't know if Anzu's going to kill our four favourite vampires. The rest of them, I can't vouch for.
6y - More has been written
Secluded Sapphire - Marik is cute, I love him. And don't worry, eventually I might write a Seto x Anzu fic. :-)
Kerrie-chan - Do you know who it is?
- Don't worry, they'll be more moments. Also, I'm going to write 1 alternate pairing for this fic, so I'll let you pick. Seth, Yami or Bakura, who?
Yami Sade - I wouldn't say I'm a better writer, I just got lucky with this fic. Honestly I wasn't really expecting to be so close to a hundred reviews in 6 chapters! ;; Anyway, I might (Probably) make a Yami x Anzu. In fact, thinking about, I will! ;-)
Lily of the Shadow - I'll update when I get time to put up the next chapter, it's already written so no worries! :-)
Hikaru - No, Yami didn't win, but that means he gets a fic all to himself with Anzu. lol Ja ne!
Chaos Babe - Yes, go Marik! (Marik: Go me, I rock!)
rogue solus - 1/ Anzu doesn't want to mention it, she's nervous, this will be looked at later! :-) 2/ They'll probably meet, I haven't quite got the ending figured out yet! ;;
Notes: Who was the werewolf...read and find out.
"Run," hissed the dark skinned man to the black creature at his feet; his back was pressed hard against the door.
The creature at his feet emitted a low growl and only pressed harder against the door as it shook and small bits of plaster fell from the low ceiling.
"You have to get out of here, find him," he ordered, his eyes flashed desperately.
The creature looked up at him as on of the windows in another room was smashed and the sound breaking glass filled their eyes, "If you don't leave now you'll never get out." The black haired beast whimpered and the eyes took on a glassy look, it seemed it was about to cry.
Shouts could be heard from the other side of the door, "Let us in!"
"We know you're in their!"
"Stop protecting them."
"Go, now," and with that the creature was gone into the night.
The man relaxed and the door gave in, he collapsed to the floor beneath the door. The weight of those that stepped on it almost crushed him.
"Where are they?" he heard someone cry.
"Well there's something under the door," one said in an annoyed tone. The weight was removed and the door was heaved off him. He felt himself be dragged upwards but it didn't matter. They were safe, as long as they didn't come back.
The sun rose up over the horizon a black haired woman with half-lidded blue eyes collapsed on the edge of the forest just outside Domino City. Her off-shoulder white dress was torn and small spots of red showed where her blood had stained it.
Tears spilled from her eyes, "Rishid," she hiccupped and managed to climb unsteadily to her feet. She began to trudge towards Domino City, her feet dragged tiredly against the ground, her eyes were almost closed and her vision as fuzzy, this was only made worse by the tears that spilled out of her eyes.
"I have to find my brother, before the slayer finds him, if what Pegasus said is true, she'll kill him on site."
With that determined thought the last thing on her mind she feinted.
As the warmth of the sun brushed against his closed eyelids he blinked his violet eyes open. The first thing he noticed was that he was alive, which means he must have gotten away from the crazy village people. He wondered how they had found out he and his sister were werewolves, they never left the house on a full moon, his adoptive brother and guardian Rishid made sure of that.
Suddenly he realised the world was moving up and down…or was that his head, he gulped when he heard a light breathing that wasn't his own. He raised his head to see that he been resting on a woman's chest. One of hands was resting lightly on his back, almost hugging him.
As conscious thought returned to him he winced at the pain in his leg, he looked at the wound, his trousers were ripped and the area around the rip was caked in blood.
He looked at the girl again and then he remembered.
---Flashback---
The shouts of the oncoming villages reached his sensitive ears, they twitched and he raised his head from where it had rested over his folded pours. The scent of anger tinged with fear reached his nostrils and he growled, his teeth gleaming in the small amount of light that streamed in from the full moon outside. A black wolf trotted over to him and nudged him gently with her nuzzle, he'd gotten up.
Rishid came in, "They know," he said as the shouts came close enough for human ears to hear. The black wolf nodded and he went and sat at Rishid's feet nuzzling his leg gently.
"You have to go master, before they get here," Rishid explained calmly bending down to scratch him behind the ears.
As the shouts grew ever nearer Rishid took the two wolves to the back door, he had enough time to get out the door before the shouts got to close. He looked back, searching for the black wolf, he didn't see her.
Suddenly a fiery torch landed a few feet away from him, he bolted, unable to get past the flames and back into the house. Running into the woods he come to a ridge and slipped, his leg scraped against a rock as he tumbled down landing in a bed of leaves.
He whimpered as blood began to seep out of the wound and he made his way into a clearing. Then a vampire with a girl in his arms landed, the girl said something, reaching for him. The vampire took one look at his bloodied leg and went into feeding mode. He whined quietly and tried to step backwards but it was too much for his injured leg.
The girl was pinned to a tree by the vampire, he howled in pain and in the hopes of his sister hearing and coming for him. The girl managed to escape the vampire and come towards him. He snarled, he could no longer trust humans
The vampire grabbed the girl by the arm and said something to her She looked at him and then a look of terror covered her face, she knew now, she must know. He whimpered and slowly tried to move backwards.
She knelt down and beckoned to him, saying something in a calm and reassuring tone. She asked if he understood, he nodded, she beckoned again but moving had become too painful and he collapsed.
She and the vampire had exchanged more words and as the vampire came a little closer he could see him better. He had blonde hair and violet eyes like his, where they related? She came over and lifted his head into her lap; the vampire had gone soon after that.
Either they hadn't talked or the pain was most likely affecting his hearing. He'd lost consciousness soon after that.
---End flashback---
He shifted slightly; he noticed that they were still in the clearing, suddenly the girl's eyes opened. She looked confused for a minute and then she screamed. The boy's violet eyes widened and he leant forward and clapped hand over her mouth, "Ssh please, I don't want to be found," he begged.
Her eyes locked with his for a moment and he felt her relax, he removed his hand, "Who are you?" she asked.
"Malik Ishtar," he replied, his blonde hair tickled his face as a small breeze blew by.
"Malik huh," she repeated thoughtfully as she studied him form head to toe, "but…how did you," she paused and then a look of recognition dawned on her face. Malik bit his lip nervously, "Are you the werewolf me and Marik found last night."
Malik swallowed hard, it would be pretty hard to explain why she'd woken up right next to him if he lied about being a werewolf.
"It's okay, I won't hurt you," she smiled warmly.
"Why should I trust you?" Malik demanded, suddenly bitter as he remembered how the village people had marched to his house, he remembered how he hadn't seen his sister or Rishid escape and for all he knew they could be dead and he would never see them again. Humans were evil.
Anzu looked hurt, "I can't answer that, I just thought…" she trailed off.
"Though what?" Malik asked his voice softening slightly.
"You didn't bite me last night, you could have done," she whispered.
"Yeh, so?" Malik said.
"I thought we could be well, friends," she hesitated unsure how to continue.
"What sort of human are you, I'm a werewolf, got that? A werewolf, I could bite you and turn you in seconds in my wolf form. I could tear you to shreds right now," she laid a finger on his lips and he went silent.
"But would you? Truthfully now?" she looked up at him with her big blue eyes.
"What's you're name human?" he asked.
"Anzu Mazaki," Malik's eyes widened and he leapt backwards.
"Anzu Mazaki?" he nearly screamed, "the slayer?" his eyes were wide.
Anzu looked saddened, "Not by choice, I mean, being a slayer is complicated enough when you have four vampires living in you're basement," Malik blanched, "And on top of that I don't even know how to slay anything," she sighed.
"Do you even know you are?" Malik asked looked shocked.
"What do you mean?" Anzu asked as she climbed to her feet, brushing herself off.
"The Mazaki family is a long line of slayers and spell casters," Anzu looked surprised, "You had no idea did you?" she shook her head and Malik laughed.
"It's not funny," Anzu pouted.
"Child, you have the vast majority of the supernatural world on high alert and you don't know the first thing about you're heritage, of course it's funny," he double over, clutching his sides.
"The supernatural world?" she repeated.
Malik calmed himself and straightened up.
"Yeh," he replied, "werewolves, vampires, ka, the Neko-clan and even an alien or two."
"Aliens?"
"Just kidding," Malik snickered, then he yelped as his leg, which had been throbbing dully, gave way beneath him.
"Are you okay?" Anzu rushed over to him as he groaned.
"I'll be fine, but people are looking for me, I have to get to Domino," he said.
"Okay, you can come with me," she grinned who raised an eyebrow, "DO you have a home?" he shook his head, "Even better, you can stay with me," she grinned wider, "Yay, more family."
"What is this? Do you run some sort of supernatural home?" he snickered again at his own joke.
"You could say that," she laughed nervously before helping him to his feet, thankfully the trees weren't too thick and the outskirts of Domino was only about fifty metres away and from there they could get a bus.
Well it wasn't Jou, it was MALIK!!! :-) I'm not really all too sure as to the entire contents of this chapter seeing as I've just written three in a row so...be happy. :-)
I HAVE SAGE'S STONE AND IT'S IN YAMI'S DECK TOO!!!
