CHAOS IN HEAVEN
By Starflower Sakura

DISCLAIMER: Sigh. Sakura is in no way capable of creating such a wonderful thing like Yu-Gi-Oh, so stop asking! She gets sad every time she thinks about it. Why am I saying this in a third person's perspective? Don't know… just am.

To readers/reviewers: This story is unique?! Really?!! Yay!! Just exactly the thing I was aiming for!! –huggles everyone- Thank you for all the wonderful reviews!! It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! Well… maybe not fuzzy because I don't think it would feel very fun to feel fuzzy. It would probably make me feel like a stuffed animal of sorts. Anyways, hope you like the second chapter as well!

Chaos In Heaven
Chapter 2 – Taking Refuge

"Do you know just how serious this is?" one of the five Elders asked, glaring down on Yugi, Ryou, and Malik.

"Hey!" Malik shouted, getting defensive. "It wasn't our fault! How were we suppose to know that demons would cross the bridge at the same time we were there?!"

"Now, now, Malik," Sugoroku, Yugi's grandfather, and one of the Elders, said, trying to cool down Malik's hasty temper. "We're not saying this is any fault of yours, Ryou, or Yugi's. We just want to know if you know how serious this situation is."

"Of course we know," Malik snapped at them.

Malik had been put on the edge within minutes of their meeting with the Elders. Their silent accusations didn't make it any much better. Sugoroku was the only one that didn't accuse them, verbally or silently, of letting the demons in. Yugi and Ryou were slightly looking at Malik as if he was insane. No one speaks to the Elders in such a way. Not even Yugi can do that and his grandfather was one of them. Sugoroku shot a look at the other Elders to tell them to keep quiet and to let him do the talking.

"We just want to know what happened, Malik," Sugoroku tried again to speak to the irritated boy.

"It's like this, Sugoroku-san," Ryou started before Malik could speak and anger the other Elders even more then they were now. "Malik, Yugi, and I was just taking a small flight across the sky. We were fully unaware that there were demons among us until they crept up on us."

Yugi nodded fervently, and seeing that Malik was going to try to speak, cut in to stop him.

"After they crept up on us, we tried our best to fly back through the Gates while trying to lose them in the process. Unfortunately, our wings cannot help us fly as fast as them and even Ryou, the best flyer the academy has ever seen, couldn't lose his pursuer! We didn't mean any harm in leading them through the Gates, Grandfather!"

Sugoroku smiled down at his innocent grandson.

"I'm sure you didn't mean any harm, and what's done is done. All we can do now is try to capture the demons. In all of the chaos, they've escaped and since the Gates are closed, they couldn't have escaped."

"What are you going to do with them once they're captured, Grandfather?" Yugi asked, eyes wide with curiosity and worry.

Ryou and Malik caught sight of the worrisome look in their friend's eyes, and didn't know whether to sigh and shake their heads, or smile at just how truly angelic and pure Yugi is. They knew that Yugi was worried for the demons although they would've probably hurt him if he was captured. He was just like that, and if he was any other way, he just wouldn't be Yugi.

Not catching the fretful look in Yugi's eye, Sugoroku stated, "I'm not quite sure. Something like this haven't happened before, and if it did, it happened so long ago that no one can remember."

"Surely, you would not harm them," Ryou inquired politely.

"It truly depends on their attitude and actions during the time period when they're still roaming free among Heaven. If they don't attack or harm any angels, then we probably won't do much to them. I suppose this will be the end of our meeting for, I believe, there is nothing left to be said."

Malik flopped on his bed as Ryou took a seat on the chair by his desk and Yugi took to standing by the window.

"Just what were you thinking, Malik?" Ryou questioned. "You should know that getting the Elders mad isn't a good idea."

Malik lifted himself up, using his elbows for support to look at Ryou's frowning face. He let himself fall back down again, body lightly bouncing up and down as he did so.

"I know it isn't a good idea, but… they just get me so angry sometimes."

"Almost everything gets you angry, Malik," Yugi teased lightly.

Malik scoffed as he leapt out of bed and headed towards his closet to find something more comfortable to wear. Once the door opened, Malik gasped in shock as something larger then he was, and much heavier, fell out, knocked him over and landed on him.

"Malik!!" Yugi and Ryou cried out in concern.

"W-What's with a-all the noise?" the thing atop of Marik queried, stuttering slightly when he yawned. "Can't a guy get some sleep around here?"

Malik stared in shock as he found out that the 'thing' on top of him was actually his demon look-alike that chased him through the skies of Heaven and gotten him and his friends in trouble.

Malik growled low in his throat as he said slowly, "Get off me… NOW!!"

Marik looked confused as he stared at Malik. Confusion slowly turned into recognition, and then a half-crazed smile dominated most of his expression.

"Hey! You're that pretty angel I was chasing after this morning!"

Malik sputtered indignantly and then he remembered that his friends were there and they were not doing a single thing to help. He looked about wildly only to catch the sight of one silver-white haired angel clutching at his sides and holding onto the table for support as he laughed and another tri-colored haired angel rolling on the bed in hysterical laughter.

I have a demon on top of me and all they could do is laugh?!!!

"Oi!! A little help here!!!" Malik screamed while glaring at the demon on top of him who was currently purring and nestling into his neck and most likely trying to find the best position to fall asleep again.

Seeing that his friends were too busy laughing their heads off at his predicament, he knew that he must help himself. So he did. With a strong push, he shoved Marik off of him and got into a fighting stance. He quickly dropped the fighting stance when he heard a squeal from behind him. He blinked once, twice, thrice at what he saw. Ryou and Yugi's demon look-alikes had somehow gotten into his bedroom without him knowing and was now, from the looks of it, studying his friends.

The squeal came from Ryou who looked quite flustered. It seemed that when he entered, Ryou was too shocked to move. Thus, leading to his look-alike picking up his hand, looked at it and then gave it small lick. Yugi had experienced the same thing, except he was too shocked to even make a sound.

"Great!" Malik cried, throwing his hands up in the air. "I have a demon-infested house!"

He gave a shriek of terror when he felt something wet on his cheek and stood there mortified as he registered the fact that his demon double just licked him on the cheek.

"WHAT WAS THAT FOR, YOU… YOU… DEMON?!!!" Malik screamed, waking Yugi and Ryou up from their shock-like state.

Yugi and Ryou both cried out and pushed their mirror image away, getting into a fighting stance once they were up. The demons didn't seem to notice though as they all had a thoughtful, contemplating look on their face.

"Our Elders were right Yami," Ryou's double started, as he formed an evil grin, "angels are a delicacy."

Yugi's doppelganger, whose name, as we just found out, is Yami, nodded his head as he jerked his head towards Yugi, "That little one tasted like peaches and cream. What did yours taste like, Bakura?"

Back to Ryou's double, whose name is Bakura, "Just like vanilla. Marik?"

Marik grinned as he latched onto Malik, "This pretty angel tastes like cinnamon!"

Yugi, Ryou, and Malik blinked. They were confused and there was absolutely no way around that fact. They tasted like what?! They didn't even know they tasted like anything! It was too much for one day. Getting chased by demons, seeing the Elders, having a demon-infested house (at least for Malik), and now they get licked and is said to be a delicacy. They were all somewhat wondering whether or not they should be worried about the demons wanting to eat them or not.

"I have a plan," Ryou started.

Yugi and Malik looked at him, expectantly.

"We leave right this minute and then Malik can switch living between Yugi and myself until this demon problem is cleared."

"And leave my house alone with them?!" Malik said this last part while pointing his finger at the three demon who stood on the other side of the room. "Who knows how they'll destroy it?! Isis-neechan will not be happy when she gets back and finds out that the house is no longer standing!"

Malik looked up to glare at the demons and gaped when he saw that they weren't there anymore.

"What we suggest you do, little one," began Yami, who suddenly appeared behind Yugi holding a dagger pressed against his throat, "is that you better not tell anyone where we're at."

"You get away from him!" Ryou cried, running towards them to try to push Yami away while not harming Yugi at the same time.

Unfortunately, he didn't get very far when Bakura caught his arm in a bruising grip and twisted it slightly causing him to cry out in pain. Stumbling back with Bakura tugging painfully on his arm, Ryou let out a small growl. Malik snarled and tried to save them, and like Ryou got caught in Marik's arms as he wrapped an arm around his waist and pulled him to him.

"Nuh-uh. You're not going anywhere pretty angel," Marik purred, waving a finger in front of Malik's face.

Yugi, scared almost half to death, decided to do something that will either save him or kill him. Thinking they were going to get killed either way by the demons, Yugi risked it. He lifted his leg and then stomped hard on Yami's foot. Yami howled with pain and let go of Yugi who took the dagger out of his hands. Ryou and Malik grinned at each other and copied Yugi's wonderful way of escaping.

Grabbing a heavy object closet to them, they whammed it on top of their respective demon's head and they were out like a light for the second time today.

They all looked at each other and Yugi asked softly, "Now what?"

To be continued…

I'm done with the second chapter! Oh, how I find this chapter so cute!! Hopefully I'll get most, if not all, of my fanfics updated before my birthday in December! If I don't get them updated before my birthday… then Christmas!! If not Christmas… then New Year's! If not New Year's… then whatever holiday follows that! –grins- I do hope that I'll be able to finish within this year though. I'll also try, note the word 'try,' not to start any new works of fiction, or at least not long ones, until the beginning of next year! I'll only try to update from now until New Year's so wish me good luck everyone!
