Chapter Five: A broken heart

Reviewers: I'm trying to update as soon as possible, seeing as my

computer and the Internet aren't driving me entirely insane anymore. I

hope to have a couple of more chapters in by the weekend. I'll try my

best but can't make any promises...

Sweetyfanfic- thanks

Lonegothis- I know, I know, I've got some issues. I am terrified of

bunnies but that's our secret okay? And Panda is actually a very good

friend of mine. We hang out on the weekend at yugioh tcg tournaments

so I just say that he's my minion.

Sailor Tiamat- Thanks for understanding. But see I already typed out

up to chapter Six so hope you like 'em. And I already started on

finishing my other stories and new ones.

Chi Yagami- thank you for your understanding

Zoennia- I'm sorry. I'll try in the upcoming chapters. After the seventh

okay because I've already got the next one in. And I like good cristiscm

so don't worry.

Marinh M -so glad you liked it.

Avataria 13- I know I didn't like it very either but I had to do it. I

wanted to show Marik's vulnerable side ( if he even has one) but he'll be

better later one. I promise, smiles evilly.

On with the story:

This can't be happening. Not her', thought a very desperate Anzu. Her

childhood friend was lying emotionless on the ground. A very large

puddle of blood had formed around her. Her hair, which currently

covered her face, was already soaked in the coppery substance.

"Serenity" she kept screaming over and over again much to the dismay

of the vampires who were currently trying to get her screams out of their

heads. Since vampires were overly sensitive, her screams were driving

them insane. (Imagine that -)

"Either you shut her up or I will," hissed Marik.

"Anzu calm down" said Bakura looking at her intently, she was

beginning to feel tired but pushed it aside. "What did you do to her?"

screeched Anzu now running to hold her friend only to be stopped by

Bakura. "Let go of me, I have to help her, please, Serenity, be okay,

please"

Bakura let go of her, letting his once suppressed emotions get the better

of him. He couldn't help to see her cry. It pained him dearly, as he

remembered his little sister Amane (Did I get it right?) crying for their

parents.

Flashback

"Please Bakura, let me help them. I love them as much as I love you.

Please" cried Amane trying to make her brother snap out of his daze. He

had just been turned and had run from his sire, straight home only to be

followed by him, Pegasus. He tried to protect them but it had been

useless. He hadn't even been able to save his baby sister. Pegasus had

been ruthless, he killed them slowly making him watch, his body being

controlled, all he could do was scream for Pegasus to stop and spare his

family.

End of flashback

Decades had passed before he had gained enough power to escape from

Pegasus. This had been when he had met Marik, whom had also been

fleeing from Pegasus after the bastard had tortured Marik's sister and

brother, the only family he ever knew was now gone. But they became

allies, protecting one another from the world. Maybe that was why they

tolerated each other. Their grief had united them.

It was a wonder how the other soldier vampires, as they were dubbed,

never escaped. They had been there for a longer period of time and had

mastered skills, far surpassing those that the both of them possessed. But

yet, they had been the only ones to make it out unscathed. A bigger

mystery was the fact that they weren't followed and had heard no

commotion from any other vampire. This had all seemed a little

suspicious to them at the time but they let it slide, seeing as they could

start a new life, away from all the pains from the past.

These thoughts kept replaying themselves as he watched Anzu

hopelessly try to save her friend. But it had been useless, Bakura and

Marik could smell her blood becoming cold and bland. He had to think

of a way to explain this to Anzu. After all she was his and even is she

hadn't been turned yet, she would and soon he hoped.

"What are you?" she hissed as she observed the marks made on her neck.

"Vampires" explained Bakura just as simply as he could.

"What? Vampires?" she said almost in a whisper. "No, but you can't be.

Vampires aren't real."

"If they're not real, then what am I?" ('kay BORROWED that from

another story although I can't remember which one sorry but it just

sounded so good. Hope you don't mind)

Bakura and Marik watched with amused faces as Anzu fainted from the

shock. Mortals, they knew just when to get away from sticky situations.

Speaking of sticky, who was going to clean up this mess?

Misery: So like it? Tell me but remember no flames. I made their pasts

so sad... starts crying non-stop... I'm sending everyone who reviews a

Bakura and Marik plushy... Oh by the way Marik is like the Yami not

the hikari...so is Bakura... 'kay just in case.
