Still rated R. A little bit more Hentai.

Chapter 10

Sandstorm:

Avila woke to Bakura thrashing around. Her head popped up automatically and she climbed onto his chest.

"Bakura!" She cried out as she realized he was in a fever driven sleep. Sweat poured off his body and his forehead burned like fire. Avila let a sob escape her lips as she watched him struggle. She was instantly reminded of Maku.

"No! NO!" She screamed at the thought of killing him. "I won't lose you!" She pushed herself off of him and tugged on her torn tunic. She rushed out of the cave, searching frantically for any sign of human inhabitant.

But there was none.

"Someone! Please! I need help!" She screamed while falling to her knees. Tears fell out the corners of her eyes.

"Please…don't take him…" She now pleaded with the gods.

"Don't take him from me…Please…"

Kuni held tightly onto Malik as they galloped towards the village. "Are we there yet?" She whined into his ear. It wasn't that she was whining, that annoyed Malik, it was that she was doing it on purpose.

"Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"

Malik gritted his teeth.

"Does it look like we're there yet?" He asked casting her a heated glare. "Jeeze, I was just asking!" She said sitting back a little.

An evil grin broke out over her face and she snickered under her breath. There was a moment of silence, and then she took a deep breath.
"Are we there yet?"

He threw his head back and gave a roar of rage. "Damn stupid wench! Shut the hell up before I gag you!"

Kuni shut her mouth and began to snicker under her breath.

An hour later they reached the edge of the village.
"Stay here..." he ordered as he slipped off the horse. Kuni snorted and flung her leg over the horse's rear.

"Stay here my ass..." she breathed as she tied the horse to a near by post.

She slowly trudged threw the dense crowd of people, looking at all the stands full of merchandise.

Moments later Malik returned to the spot he had left her, only to find she wasn't there.

"Damn that Bitch to hell!" He roared. Villagers turned their heads to stare at him then quickly looked away as they saw his look of death.

"When I get my hands on her, I'm going to make sure she's sorry!"

Kuni didn't want to admit she was lost, but sadly, she was. She had no idea where she was, and she had been searching for Malik for hours. She heaved a sigh and slouched down on to a near by bench.

"Damn, why did I leave? I'm such a fool." She placed her hands under her chin and leaned forward.

"I'll just let Malik come to me...that's if he hasn't left me yet."

Kuni looked around with tired eyes.

"I'll just...wait...a little longer..." That's when arms swooped down and grabbed her.

"You stupid little wench! Why did you leave! I told you to stay put!"

Lavender eyes glared down at her and Kuni only laughed.

"Did you get what we came here for?" She asked trying to keep her eyes open long enough to hear his reply.

"You stupid little witch! You were supposed to stay there!" He roared while squeezing her arms.

"Calm down Mali!" She screamed back, tugging her arms from his death grip. His eye began to twitch and he releases his hold on her.

"MALI! Next you'll want me to skip around in a dress!" Kuni smiled up at him.

"You probably already do that on your free time." she gave a sly smile and slowly walked around him.

"Lets go, Avila and Bakura need us." Malik gritted his teeth in frustration and stormed after her.

"We need to turn back!" Kuni yelled over the drumming of the sand storm they just happened to be in the middle of.

"I'm not going back!" Malik roared while kicking his heel into the side of the horse. Kuni held on to his waist and squeezed her eyes shut. Small grands of sand kept blowing into her eyes, making them water.

"Please! This is torture for me!" She cried out. But Malik ignored her and tried to push himself through the storm.

"We can make it!" he yelled leaning forward. Kuni fell into his back and gave a cry of frustration. "You stubborn FOOL!" She began to pound on his back with her fist and clawed at his skin.

"Stupid little bitch! Knock it off!" He yelled trying to ignore her attack.

"I want shelter...NOW!" Malik cursed under his breath and brought the horse to a stop.

"And where should we go your highness!" He asked with blazing eyes. Kuni looked around her then smiled.

"There!" she said pointing to a near by cave.

She smiled to herself with joy and kicked the horse. "Damn!" Malik cried as the horse bolted. He grabbed the reins and pulled sharply on them.

"DON'T do that again!" He screamed while jumping off the horse. Kuni ignored him and reached her arms out to him. He stepped up to the horse and slowly brought her to the floor. His warm hands lingering on her waste.

"You can let go of me now..." She whispered. He quickly retreated his hands and turned on his heel sharply.

"Come on! Let's see if it's safe to stay here..."

Kuni lay in front of the fire, her hair spread out under her. Her eyes were shut and her hands pushed up towards the flames. Malik sat against the cave wall, his arms crossed over his chest, glaring at Kuni.

"You should really come over here and sit before the fire, it is quite warm!" Kuni said with a smile. Malik pushed away from the wall and turned to a sack he had brought in.

He opened it and tugged out a rather large blanket.

He spread it out on the dirt floor then stared down at Kuni.

"You and I will have to share each others warmth, I have no other blankets." Kuni narrowed her eyes.

"Is this some cheap trick...you trying to get into my pants? You better not ravish me!" she screeched pushing herself off the dirt floor.

Malik snorted.

"Don't flatter yourself." he kicked off his sandals and crawled under the covers. Kuni crawled to the blanket and did the same. She scooted as far away as she could, but still their bodies touched.

"Promise?" she asked after a moment of silence. Malik just grunted and rolled to his side, allowing her more room. She smiled and spread her legs and arms out.

"Bitch." He muttered under his breath.

She smiled and closed her eyes.

"Be a doll and put out the fire." She whispered sleepily. But Malik was already passed out.

Kuni dreamed of a mouth on hers, of a kiss so light and delicate, it barely stirred the air. She dreamed that her hands were moving over a warm, powerful male body and she was inhaling the scent of skin, a scent that she knew but that was unfamiliar and didn't belong to her. She dreamed that fingers caressed her skin now, the small of her back, touched her breasts, swept down her thighs, and tickled her throat. She dreamed that her lips parted and met by another pair, one that took driving possession of her mouth; she heard little feline cries in the sensual darkness of the deep enclosing feather mattress, and she dreamed they were her own. She felt pleasure slips around her in the darkness, and felt the white heat spread up her back.

"Say my name..." the dream whispered into her ear.

"What's your name?" she dreamily replied.

"Malik..." He answered.

She heard his name being called into the night, by a voice she could not recognize. There bodies were joined together as one dipping into warm glowing light, infinite pleasure.

The dream was with her all night, her body moving slowly with the help of "Malik", ever new and more glorious waves of pleasure breaking over her as she adapted herself with such wonderful ease to the large, powerful frame that both took possession and gifted her with itself. And when she awoke, her eyes opened to washed out sunshine, and she was alone.

Her hands ran down her body and she gave a startled cry. She was naked, but she had not gone to bed naked!

She was naked and her skin felt different: used, marked, in some strange and frightening way. There was soreness between her legs. Kuni kicked aside the sheets and gasped when she saw the blood.

"Malik! You raped me!" She screamed with anger.

Avila scurried back into the cave to check on Bakura. He lay still on his pallet, his eyes wide open.

"Avy?" he choked out. Avila ran to his side and cradled his head in her arms. "Yes Kura?"

He smiled at the nickname.

"Don't call me that." He whispered.

"Then don't call me Avy!" She said with a small smile on her face as she stroked his burning brow.

His hand darted up and stroked her face. "Can you get me some water?" he asked in a cracked voice. Avila pushed him away and rushed to her depleted supply of water.

"There's not that much left..." She whispered.

He closed his eyes and gave a slow nod. She squeezed her eyes shut and heaved a sigh. "Bakura, I don't want you to die..."

His eyes shot open.

"Oh don't worry, Avy, I won't die...not after what happened last night...I want to stick around for more."

Avila's eyes popped open.

"You dirty little thief!" she screamed with a smile on her face. Bakura smiled and closed his eyes again.

"Was I really that good?" she asked causing him to chuckle. He crooked his finger at her and she slowly moved to his side, carrying the water bucket.

"Oh, you were the best." he whispered while bringing her down to his face for a passionate kiss, followed by a soft nibble. They pulled away breathless, wanting more.

"You bit me..." she said in surprise as she pressed a hand to her lip. Bakura smiled while closing his eyes.

"And...? you know you like It." he stated calmly. Avila let a growl escape her lips and she pushed herself off the floor.

"What's wrong love? Don't you want more?" He asked with a sly grin.

"I want..." but she was cut off by screaming voices.

"Damn you Malik! You promised not to ravish me!" Kuni screamed while stomping into the cave. Malik strode ahead of her, a smug smile on his face.

"I never promised anything, I merely grunted. Which could have meant No or Yes!" He said with a cackle of laughter. Kuni stopped where she was and gave a scream of terror.

"You stupid pig headed jack ass!" She tugged on her long black hair and stomped her foot. Malik turned his gaze from her and glanced at Avila who stood above Bakura.

"So...you're still alive?" He asked with a grin. Bakura smiled.

"You don't sound to happy Malik...Besides; I had the best medicine the gods could ever create." He grinned when he heard Avila let out a low growl.

"Oh?" he shot Avila an evil look. Her face turned a dark red and she tried to cover it.

"We did nothing; he doesn't know what he's saying..."

"Oh? Is that right? Well then...why's your tunic ripped...and why," he reached an arm up and grabbed her ass; she gasped and began to quiver. "Do I affect you so?" he asked smugly

Ya...this one's kinda short...and...yes...Kuni and Malik did have a sexual romp... that was no dream...

Heh heh! I'm sure some of you saw that coming...

Thanks for da reviews!
