When Yugi woke up in the morning, he was giddy. 'Only one more day left.' He thought happily as he got ready for school.

Since they haven't ate anything in a while to sate their demon hunger, Yami and Aqua were both out hunting before they had to head for school as well. They were finished off the woman they happened to find and cleaned themselves off before they headed off to school. "What should we do about Anzu, Yami?" Aqua questioned once they entered the school gates.
"She will die. Plain and simple. She has gotten on my bad side enough times. If she does something to ruin her last day of life then she will die tonight." Yami replied, anger flashing through his eyes quickly before he spotted Yugi running over to him. He knelt down and Yugi hugged him. "Morning, Yami. Morning, Aqua." Yugi greeted. Yami picked him up and went to sit at one of the benches.
Aqua wanted them to have time to themselves before they head to their morning classes so he stood and kept an eye out for Anzu.

Anzu paced through the girls' bathroom, still thinking of a way how to get rid of Yugi before the Blood Moon rises. She looked up on the Blood Moon and found out that the next one is a day away. So currently she is formulating a plan on how to get rid of Yugi before that time. 'But with all the protection he has, including Yami and Aqua, this will be hard.' Anzu thought.
'But I can get to him. I know I can. I just have to plan this out very carefully.'

Once they headed for their classes, Yami leaned down and placed a small kiss on Yugi's cheek, making him blush. "Don't forget, one more day, Yugi." he whispered quietly as he and Aqua went inside, followed by Yugi.
Anzu glared, watching them come in. "Yugi, you will not have another chance with them ever again once I'm done with you." she mumbled to herself.

During lunch, Jounouchi and Kaiser followed Seto and Ruby to the table they normally sit at. They were surprised that they were sleeping in one of the spare rooms of Seto and Ruby's huge mansion and even more surprised to know that they were the ones to bring them there. Jounouchi was still slightly confused to why they brought them there in the first place.
'Why would Seto even worry about me? I'm nothing but a lowly mutt with a run-down home and an abusive father.' Jounouchi thought once they sat down. He lowered his head and Seto looked to him, a little worried. "What's the matter, Jou?" Seto asked. Jounouchi looked to him. "Why did you bother to take us in, Seto? We are nothing you should associate with. I'm poor, you're rich. We have nothing in common and we're a waste of time." he admitted. "No you're not. There was a reason we took you in. Your father abused you both and we weren't going to take that lightly. We want you to be happy, to be in a loving home. To be with us." Seto explained. Jounouchi looked into those dark pools and saw truth in his words. "But why?" Kaiser asked.
"I was hoping we didn't have to tell you so soon. But we are demons and in one day, the Blood Moon will rise and many demons that are still living will be looking for a life mate. I want you as my life mate, Kaiser, as Seto would want you to be his, Jou. We had killed your father because he would beat you to the point of death one day and we may never be there to save you." Ruby explained.
Jounouchi and Kaiser contemplated over what they told them. They have killed their father for what they done, they wanted them as life mates and they were actually demons. This was too much for them but what choice did they have now? Jounouchi looked up to Seto who was looking at him with an almost pleading look. 'We can't ruin their chances now. They must really want to be with us if they did all this for us, ridding us of our father and whatnot.' Jounouchi thought.
"Ok, we'll do this. You have done a lot for us even if we didn't want it to happen but you did it for a reason. To keep us safe and we are grateful for that. Thank you, Seto." Jounouchi said with a smile. Seto smiled back and moved to sit beside him, wrapping an arm around his waist and pulled him closer. "I wouldn't have it any other way." he whispered.

Outside, Ryou and Diamond sat, eating their bagged lunch. Not far away, Bakura and Crimson watched. "What should we do, Bakura?" Crimson asked. "Well, first, you have to convince Diamond that we wouldn't hurt them at all. That is what she's worried about the most." Bakura replied.
"Wait? Why me and how did you learn about that?"
"When I was talking to Ryou last night, I delved into his mind and it showed some memories that happened when they first came into high school and all. They never had any friends and Ryou was getting beat by many bullies that normally used Yugi as a target and they still do but luckily, Yami and Aqua doesn't know of it yet." he explained. "Oh? So Diamond doesn't trust us because she thinks we would treat Ryou the same way?" Crimson announced. "Exactly, that why I'm sending you in there." Bakura grinned and pushed him in the direction where they were. He stumbled a bit and glared back at him before he walked over to where they were.
Diamond looked up to him. "What do you want, Crimson?" she asked, a hint of anger in her voice. Ryou looked to her and placed a hand on her shoulder. "It's ok, Diamond, just let him talk. You can trust him." Ryou whispered and she nodded, still wary just in case. "Bakura wants to speak with you, Ryou. He asked me to come over here to tell you that." Crimson spoke. Ryou made a move to get up but Diamond looked to him. "Are you sure this is ok, Ryou?"
"Don't worry, I trust him and I know you can trust Crimson. Why don't you stay and talk with him? Be civil." Ryou suggested. Diamond sighed and nodded. "Alright but I still want you to be careful." He nodded and went into the direction Crimson came from.

Bakura looked up when he heard Ryou call out to him and smiled softly. "Hey, Ryou." Bakura greeted. Ryou smiled. "Hi, Bakura. What did you want to see me for?" he asked. "I wanted to tell you something. Did you ever know that demons still live til this time and place?" Ryou shook his head, curiosity showing in his eyes. "Well, Crimson and I are demons and I wanted to ask you something important." Bakura spoke. "You and Crimson are demons? But how can that be possible? I thought things like vampires and werewolves weren't real." Ryou said.
"They aren't. Humans from the past had made stuff like that up so they wouldn't find out about those that are truly the supernatural. Anyway, back to what I needed to say. The day after tomorrow is the night of the Blood Moon which is when demons that are still around go and look for a life mate. I wanted to ask if you would become my mate, Ryou?" Bakura asked. "I don't know. What would Diamond think if she found out?" Ryou inquired, worried about her reaction if he agreed to Bakura's request. "I think she would be ok with it." Bakura said. 'If she agreed to be Crimson's mate.' Bakura thought with dread at the possibility.

"No, no and no! I'm not going to be some life mate to a demon!" Diamond yelled, crossing her arms and anger. "Please? Why won't you be with me? I know Ryou would agree to be with Bakura if you will be with me." Crimson pleaded. "What?! Bakura is a demon too! No way! Nuh uh! I'm not letting Ryou be mated with a Demon!" she exclaimed.
"Please, Diamond. Listen to me. This means a lot to the demon kind. We are a very scarce race right now and many are still looking for mates. Bakura and I are the only one who doesn't have anyone for a mate. We are looking to you and Ryou to be with us. Please, will you do it?" Diamond looked to him and saw the sad, betrayed look in his eyes. 'He really needs me to be with him. I can't let him feel this way if I deny him.'
"Ok. I'll be your mate, Crimson. Don't feel bad. It was just so unexpected, I didn't know what I should say. I'm very protective of Ryou and I can't trust many to not hurt him. I'm happy that he was able to make friends but something like this is shocking for both of us. But since this is important to all demons, I'm ok with it and I know Ryou is too." she spoke with a smile. Crimson smiled back and hugged her. "Thank you for being my mate, Diamond." Crimson whispered.

In another part of the city, another two demons waited. They look exactly like Malik and Topaz except the one that looks like Malik had his hair spiked up in different direction and the sphinx had slightly darker fur. "Little spirit tamer. You will not have to wait for long for I am coming to get you soon." The Malik look-alike whispered.

Sitting in his office of the game shop he owned, emerald green eyes looked up to the lightly red moon that was showing slightly in the blue, sunny sky. A knock was heard. "Come in." the teen said. A man entered and bowed. "Master Otogi, we have found the boy you have requested." The man said as he placed a folder on the desk. He turned the chair around and picked up the folder. He smiled as he read over the information of the boy. He then took the picture that came with it.
A picture of Jounouchi Katsuya.
'You will be mine soon.' The teen thought as he got up. "Get Jade. We're making a visit to Domino High." Otogi said. The man nodded and left the room. 'Just wait, Jounouchi. You will be with me soon enough.' He thought as he looked outside once again to the red moon. 'Only one more day left.'

Zypher: Yes, very unexpected for Otogi to show up. Well, at least it wasn't Pegasus or -shudder- Keith. Anyway, please review.
