Chapter 19
Sorry for the long update, so, to make up for it, I am literally going to whine. I am working two jobs at the moment, one after the other and have really no time to myself. So updates will not be as close together anymore, but will still be coming. Just keep an eye out. Jane and on with the story.
YOU GUYS ARE SO GOING TO HATE/KILL ME FOR THIS CHAPTER, I CAN ALREADY FEEL IT.
"Jou? What did he do to you?" Seto asked, looking at the blonde angel. Walking towards him, he was heartbroken to see the blonde step back and ask his supposed 'master' who he was. "Jou, it's me? Kaiba Seto. You have been living with me for awhile now, don't you remember?"
"That's futile Kaiba-boy. He doesn't know who you are. Any of you." He smirked.
"How could he not?" Yugi asked, staring at his best friend. "Jou has known all of us for years, he can't forget over night."
"As a matter of fact, he can." Pegasus replied, gloating in his glory.
"Do explain." Kaiba said, watching the blonde sit on Pegasus's lap, watching as the said man rubbed his hands everywhere he could.
"Angel's memories will be lost bit by bit if they go to a darker side of life." Mikata cut in, looking at her son, then Pegasus in disgust. "You beat him to this state in just one night? It took Mendou weeks to get me that far, he must have hated you greatly."
Pegasus stared at her before smiling sadistically. "So you are Jou-boy's mother ne? Pretty little thing you are, I see where he gets it."
"Leave her out of this. Give Jou back!" Ryou said, giving his best glare to Pegasus, and he was proud of that glare, it rivaled Bakura's.
"Master Pegasus? Who are these people?" Jou asked, looking at Pegasus with his black emotionless eyes.
Pegasus fingered Jou's blood stained dagger before grinning. "These people were your friends, my dear Jou. The two closest two us happen to be non other then Kaiba Seto and Mouto Yugi, Jou-Boy. The two you are here to kill."
Without even saying a word, Jou stood and advanced on the tow, dagger in hand. Ryou knew what was happening, as did everyone else, and bolted forward, wrapping his arms around the blonde's waist and staring into those blank eyes. "Jou! It's us, please wake up! Please! You don't want to kill any of us, not me, not Bakura, not Seto, nor Yugi! Wake up, please!" He pleaded, though the plea landed on deaf ears as he was forcefully thrown aside, watching helplessly as Jou advanced on Yugi first.
Kaiba jumped in between the two and stared at the blonde, his blonde. This wasn't right, Jou would never attack anyone, motive or not, he was not like that. "Jou, look at me, look into my eyes. Remember your past, please." He barely had enough time to back step and run into Yugi as the blade was swung at his face. "Jounouchi!"
"He can't hear you!" Mikata screamed out, pulling Yugi close to her. "He can only hear what Pegasus tells him! You have to do something drastic to make him remember anything!"
They all watched as Jou kept swinging the knife at Seto, cutting the vampire every now and again, and Seto screaming at him to remember. The only one enjoying the spectacle was Pegasus, who was grinning.
Yugi whimpered as he watched. "Neither of them can die, right? Since they are both immortal?"
"Ryou brightened a little. "He's right. Jou's an angel, Kaiba's a vampire. Neither can die, so that would…"
"You are very wrong." Mikata's worry soaked voice broke through. "Even an immortal can die. With enough blood loss, loss of heart, head, or soul, and immortal can die."
All hope was lost. The watched as more blood dripped to the floor as Jou kept slashing at Kaiba, and Kaiba slowly losing hope at getting the real Jounouchi back. Kaiba backed up into a wall as Jou advanced, having come to a conclusion, he advanced as well, Jou raised his dagger. "I am sorry Jou." Kaiba said, feeling cold steel slide painfully into his chest as he kissed the blonde.
Jou's eyes clouded over as the black slowly dissipated, revealing beautiful honey brown eyes underneath, his wings lightening slightly, but never becoming any shades close to white. He was returning, the real Jou was coming back. Jou's eyes searched the dull blue ones staring happily at him before pulling his lips away from Seto's. "Seto? What is going on?" He looked down and saw him holding a bloody dagger in Seto's chest, his breathing increased rapidly as memories of what Pegasus made him do came flooding back.
Rage filled his mind before, without noticing yanked the dagger away from Seto's body and flew at Pegasus, thrusting the dagger into the now lifeless body repeatedly. His eyes cleared and he left the body there without remorse, turning around he saw everyone filing around Seto, the reason he couldn't understand. Slowly walking over he saw a dark liquid starting to puddle everywhere. The liquid being blood.
"Seto?" He choked out, walking up to the extremely pale figure who was lying on the floor, gasping for air. "Please! Please answer me Seto!" Tears were running freely down his face as he cradled the brunette's head in his lap.
Seto looked up at Jou with love filled eyes. "Remember this, my angel. Life is only but a dream, and that dream can only end when one is either awakened from their nightmare,or dies. In this case, you were awakened, and I will die. I love you… my… beautiful angel." Kaiba sighed out, his eyes slowly drifting shut through his speech, before his body went limp.
"Seto? Seto? Seto!" Jou cried out, staring at Seto's body, tears cascading down his face as his breath hitched. "I-I love you too, I love you Seto."
