The Tears of an Angel with no Mercy

By AlyssaAnimeAngel

Alyssa: Please Review cause I like this story and want to continue it soon.

Don't own YU-GI-OH but do own this story Amy. Don't sue! And this has big warnings – ABUSE, VIOLENCE, ATTEMPTED RAPE, LANGUAGE, AND OTHER BAD STUFF. STOP READING NOW IF IT OFFENDS YOU.

Not Yaoi, just the bond between Yami and Hikari.

Yami Malik will be written as Mariku. Sorry if Mariku and Malik seem a little out of character it's just the story wouldn't have worked if Mariku had started killing people and Malik joined him.

Oh yes and I am saying that Seto Kaiba has the Millennium Eye okay.

By the way this is AU.

'thinking'

Hikari to Yami

+Yami to Hikari+

Telekinetic thoughts

Note to all: I like Yaoi, luv it. Already have one fic about Ryou x Bakura. So this one may turn out that way. Also Amy is not, I repeat, not a Mary Sue.

AND I AM SO SORRY IT HAS TAKEN SO LONG. LIKE FOREVER BUT I LUV YOU ALL AND THAT IS WHY I AM WRITING THIS AND ALSO I LOVE THIS STORY.

Chapter 9 – On the Path

Ryou looked into Bakura's eyes with a fierce determination. The hikari whispered, "Bakura, I love you and I love Amy. Please be with me always."

Bakura's eyes widened sharply and he coughed, "Love?"

'Love, he loves me. Even after all I have done to him, he loves ME? Me? How could he, and yet it is true. I can see it in his eyes. But Love, I am not worthy of love and I …don't love him. Or do I. I care about him, more than I used to, that is, and he is very cute and I need him. But Love …love.'

"Bakura, you need not feel the same way, but just stay with me forever."

Before Bakura realized what he was saying he confirmed, "I will, I promise."

'What, why did I say that, I don't know what the future holds and yet I…I want to be with him and not see him sad. And look at him, his eyes are so bright right now.'

Yami coughed, "I hate to break this up but we need to plan where we go from here."

Bakura stated, "But we have no idea where she is."

Ryou blanched as he heard a faint scream.

Amy screamed as fire surrounded her body. Her body was physically unharmed but the pain was immeasurable. She squinted open her eyes and in the darkness saw a pair of glowing red eyes. She knew this was the ancient evil that had captured her and her Yami but she couldn't remember anything else of it.

Amy felt a release from the fire and could hear footsteps coming towards her. She looked up from her place on the ground and saw the face of the evil. Her mouth widened in a silent scream and terror froze the blood in her veins. She couldn't move, couldn't think. All she could do was listen to the words of a monster, "This was always how I liked you. Bleeding on the ground. Your boy shall be mine and I will take him as I had you taken and not only that but I shall reach the destined end and I will claim the ultimate prize, the river of souls. And I shall be the controller of existence and never again shall I be used like a tool. I will have power, power that is my right."

Finally her scream broke out from her mouth and it shattered the shields between worlds.

Ryou felt cold and he looked up into brown eyes of concern.

"Ryou thank Ra, when you fell, I thought…"

"It was Amy, I heard her scream. Something is wrong, very wrong."

Ryou looked down and saw the Ring activate, "She is here, hurry, we have to find her now."

The white haired boy jumped up and ran out of his room. He felt the others following him so he let the ring guide him. He knew that he was going to find Amy, but everything was so very wrong. And no matter how he tried to deny it, the feeling wouldn't go away.

His ring led him through the markets and out of the city. He was exhausted but the ring dragged him along. Finally in a brief physical slip he tripped over and landed on the desert sand. Bakura ran up behind him and helped him up, "You do run fast. But why…"

Ryou turned to Bakura when he paused and saw that his Yami's attention was ahead of them. He turned to see what he was looking at and saw a black haired girl laying in the sand.

Ryou ran to her and rolled her over. He elicited a gasp of surprise as he recognized the girl. She looked exactly like Amy except for the hair.

Bakura approached them and muttered, "Amy?"

Finally the others arrived and each of their faces showed shock. None could believe they had found her so easy, but then the hair was the wrong color.

The girl stirred and her eyes opened. Ryou registered in her mind and she pushed up away from him. "Who are you?"

Ryou stuttered out his name from fright. This wasn't Amy.

Bakura growled back, "And who are you?"

"My name is not important. Now I demand to know where I am and what you have done to my."

"Demand? You demand nothing. And for your information we have done nothing to you."

The girl took in all of the surrounding people and her eyes rested on Yami. She growled, "Brother?"

Yami's eyes narrowed and he said, "Are you Amy's Yami, the sister of the pharaoh and the spirit of the millennium crystal."

"And if I am?"

Ryou stood up and pleaded, "Please, I need to know where Amy is."

"Why should I care what you need?"

Bakura grinned, "You don't know, do you."

"Of course I do," she paused for a moment to check but when she couldn't sense Amy she blanched and stated, "I can't sense her."

The girl looked at a complete loss and Yugi said, "We are looking for her as well, what is the last thing you remember?"

"Not that I should tell you, but I don't know, there was a blackness, and a…a presence. I was going to confront the presence but I was …there was a pain in my back and then nothing. And now I am here."

Yami asked, "What is your name?"

"Brother, you don't remember do you? You don't remember the name of the sister you raped. Pathetic."

"Rape? I didn't rape you, I wouldn't."

"It wasn't a sexual rape but you forced my body to merge with yours in a way that is much more painful than rape. I was trapped in that crystal for millennia with the memory of your abuse burned into my mind."

Ryou turned to the black haired beauty, "Please, what is your name?"

She turned to Ryou and a strange emotion passed over her face, "You are special…hmm…anyway my name is Matiu, sister of Atemu."

"Atemu? That is my name?"

"Yes, brother."

Atemu looked downcast for a moment and Yugi looked up at his aibou. "Yami, I mean Atemu. Would you like me to call you that from now on?"

"No…I am Yami now, Atemu may have been my previous self, but I cant remember him. Also Atemu did something horrible to Matiu and I wont take his name until I understand why."

Bakura sneered, "It's too much trouble anyway to have to start calling you something else."

Malik walked up to Ryou, "So what are you going to do now?"

Ryou shook his head, "I don't know, I thought that Amy would have the crystal. But if Matiu has it then I cannot use my ring to find her."

Matiu looked in thought and said, "I do not have the Millennium Crystal."

Isis asked, "Not even inside of you?"

"No, Amy was always the one with the brighter heart and only those with bright hearts may keep the crystal in tact and powerful."

Ryou couldn't understand why his Millennium Ring had brought him to Matiu instead of Amy. It just didn't make sense.

Matiu addressed Ryou, "Now boy, tell me what has happened to my host."

Ryou nodded but Tea interrupted, "Can we go back to the hotel first, it is way too hot out here."

Seto agreed, "Yes, we should. Besides, Matiu needs to be checked by a doctor."

"I am fine!"

"Perhaps, but who knows how long you have been laying in the desert."

"Fine, Ryou start telling me what happened to Amy."

Bakura picked up on Matiu's little slip and pushed her to the ground. He held her down with his body weight much to the shocked looks and gasps of those around him.

"Bakura?"

"How did you know Ryou's name?"

"One of you must have said it."

"No, none of us did. We did not introduce ourselves. Now tell me, who are you and where is Amy?"

She started to laugh, which only made Bakura sneer.

"You know, you are smarter than I gave you credit for."

Bakura pushed her farther into the ground eliciting a gasp of pain from her.

Matiu growled and said, "I don't like being the one controlled, now lets see how you all fare in the shadow realm. I don't think your lights are going to like it much at all."

Before Bakura could act he was standing in darkness and he knew that he was all alone.

"Ryou!" he called out with his voice while simultaneously calling out with his mind.

The link was still there but there was no answer.
