Chapter 10: Offers and a new vampire
Malik entered the prison. As he went down the row of cells, his prisoners shrunk into the back corner, hoping to not be seen by the dark lord. But one woman didn't back down. In fact, she stayed on her bed, reading her magazine. Malik went to her cell and growled, "So…I see you're not afraid of me…Mai."
Mai put down her magazine, still not looking at Malik. "I'm not afraid of anything or anyone."
Malik reached in and grabbed her hair roughly. "You should consider yourself lucky that I only use you for human entertainment and I don't kill you now."
Mai looked at him. "Then why don't you?"
Malik used his other hand and gently touched her cheek. "It's because…you're too cute for one of my daggers…and too nasty for my fangs."
He then slapped her and moved on. Mai slightly rubbed her slapped face and sat up. "Always has a temper, that one."
Hiding under the bed was her cellmate Rebecca, who was shivering from Malik's appearance. "Why…do you always…go against him? He could kill you."
Mai shook her head. "No, he won't. I'm too valuable to him. After that other follower left, I'm his only access to money. Without me…he's flat broke."
Rebecca just shivered as she grabbed her picture of her grandfather and clutched it close to her heart.

Malik arrived at Anzu's prison cell. He wasn't sure if she knew he was there or not. She was lying on her stomach and looking out her window. 'What better way to get what's mine than when she's asleep?' he thought as he inserted the key into the lock.
Anzu was awake and heard the key jingle. She would have looked if she hadn't heard Malik growling at Mai a minute ago. She wasn't sure if it was really him but she didn't want to look. She closed her eyes, waiting for the person to leave. The door closed and the key turned to lock the door. Whoever it was sat on the bed next to her and lightly touched her cheek down to her neck.
The next thing she knew was that she was pushed onto her back and a single nail ran down the front of her shirt, ripping it open. As the person pulled the shirt apart, she opened her eyes. She looked into blood red eyes and an evil smile. "Well now, my Princess. Your King is here to take what's mine by right. We can do this willing or I can have fun taking you my way…" he leaned next to her ear, "…and my way is only fun if you're a vampire. Humans find it painful and black out after an hour session. Then I have to wake them and start all over again. So what will it be?"
Anzu whimpered and turned her head away, closing her eyes in fear. Malik grinned evilly. "I guess we'll be doing things my way."
But before he could do anything, he heard a window break and Rebecca cry out in surprise. He got up, opened the door, and looked out. He saw no one but heard all the prisoners freaking out. Growling, he got out to calm everyone down. That was what the intruder was waiting for.
The trespasser climbed along the ceiling and very softly set foot on the bed. A hand reached from behind Anzu and covered her mouth and nose with a cloth. She jumped in surprise but then slumped forward in a deep sleep. The intruder smirked evilly and whispered in a familiar voice, "Don't worry, Anzu. I'll get you out of here."
The two disappeared and not a moment too soon. Malik returned, still growling at his prisoners to shut up. But when he got back inside the cell, he didn't see Anzu. However he saw something familiar. He found a card with a Blue Eyes White Dragon on it.
Malik knew who the card belonged to and he wasn't too happy by it being there. He growled more furiously and burned the card with his magic. "That bas…! He stole my girl!"
Passing by, Valon stuck his head in. "What's the matter with you?"
Still growling, Malik reach through the bars and scratched Valon across the face. "Get everyone together! I have an important mission for them!"

An hour later, Anzu moaned and woke up in a large bedroom. She looked out the window and covered her eyes at the sunlight pouring in from the window. Looking down, she was surprised to find silk sheets covering her body. Looking under the covers, she saw that she wasn't in her outfit. She was now wearing a blood red silk negligee.
Hearing a knock at the door, Anzu covered her chest with the sheets. A young brunette walked in, carrying a tray of food. Anzu was surprised at who it was. "Mana? What are you doing here?"
Mana didn't answer her question. "Master asked me to be your personal maid for as long as your stay is. I have your lunch and I'll draw you a hot bath. My Master wants you to join him for dinner tonight. I will have a dress ready for you then."
She puts the food on a small table and walked to a door on the left side of the bed where Anzu was. But just before she left, Anzu asked, "Where am I?"
Mana looked at Anzu. "Why, you're at my Master's house. Where else?"
"How did I get here?"
"My Master brought you here. He rescued you."
Anzu held her hand up. "Wait. Who's 'Master'?"
Mana opened the door. "I'm not allowed to say his name. None of us are. But you'll recognize him."
With that, Mana left. Taking a deep breath and collecting herself, Anzu walked to the table and slowly started to eat her lunch. Her mind was filled with everything that had happened to her the past couple of days. When she finished, she laid back down on the bed and sighed deeply. "What happened to me?"
Mana's voice rang out, "A lot, that's for sure."
Anzu stood up, startled by Mana's voice. "Mana, don't do that! With everything that's happened to me, I need any more scares!"
Mana nodded apologetic. "I'm sorry. I just came to tell you that your bath is ready. Just through that door on the right."
Anzu nodded and went through the door to the right of the bed. Mana sat on the bed as she said to a dark corner, "She's very frightened."
Sitting in the dark corner was her master. "I know. I've been here the whole time."
Mana got down on one knee and asked, "If it's not too bold, how will you help her?"
Her master sighed and got up, walking toward the door while staying in the shadows. "I'll protect her. That's all you need to know. I don't need Malik destroying another close female."

When the sun set, the fully refreshed Anzu was sitting back on the bed. She felt her sanity for Bakura return and clutched her head. She was about to rolled up into a ball under the covers when Mana came in, holding a red silk dress. "My Master wants you to wear this tonight."
Anzu looked at Mana and then at the dress. "I have to wear that?"
Mana nodded. Anzu groaned but grabbed the dress.

The dining room had a medium length table with food and lit candles on the table. There was a lit fireplace and two comfy chairs in front of it. Someone was already sitting in the right chair, which was evident with a left hand being in view holding a full wine glass.
Anzu entered, wearing the red dress. It was tight, off the shoulder, and had high slits on both hips. All in all, it was a dress that seemed to be Anzu's style. She saw the hand and curtsied. "Hello, sir. Um…thank you for saving me. Um…I like this dress. It's, um…definitely my style. Um…"
"Can you say anything without the word 'um' in it?" barked the man.
Anzu froze at the voice, for it was oddly familiar. "No…it can't be…"
He stood up and came forward so that his face was seen by the lit candles. Anzu's eyes grew wide. "Seto Kaiba?"
Kaiba nodded once as he swirled the dark wine around in the glass. "Yes. Are you surprised?"
Anzu took a few steps back in fear. "You're…you're a vampire?"
Kaiba sighed as he went to his seat at one end of the table. "It's one of the few good things Pegasus did to me. He bit me when I went to get some more rare cards."
Anzu remained where she was, still stunned by what she just learned. "But…if you're a vampire…why are you able to walk around during day?"
Kaiba took a sip of his drink. "When I revived, he gave the blood of an immortal. Said it was to not raise suspicions." Looking at her, he gestured to the chair on the opposite end of the table. "Come. Sit. You must be starving."
Slowly nodding, Anzu made her way to her chair. "Does Mokuba know?"
Kaiba nodded. "He saw everything, from the bite to me becoming immortal. He wants to become like me but we're waiting to get our hands on immortal blood."
Anzu slowly sat down, her eyes glued on Kaiba. He saw her gaze and glared. She immediately looked away. He said, "There's no need to be afraid. I will not harm you. I'm not like Malik."
Anzu looked at Kaiba as Mana served her dinner. "How can I trust you?"
Kaiba set his wine glass down and rested his head on the back of his right hand. "Technically, you can't. No one can trust a vampire, let alone a vampire lord. But you've known me for a long time and you trusted me when you thought I was a human. Granted, you did annoy me all the time with your friendship speeches. But believe me; I'm not going to sink my teeth into your neck anytime soon. You can help me kill Malik…for what he did to a friend of mine."
When he said that, his wine glass was destroyed without Kaiba even touching it. Mana quickly gave him another full glass, wiped the liquid away as best as she could, and threw the glass shards away. Taking a deep breath, Anzu nodded once and slowly started to eat her dinner with Kaiba watching her intensely.

Malik just dismissed his followers from their meeting. But Bakura stayed behind. "Master?"
"What!" Malik growled. He was still pissed from losing Anzu to an enemy.
Bakura swallowed hard. "Master…if there's anything I can do…to get Anzu back…just let me know."
Malik grabbed Bakura by the throat and brought him close to his face, eyes burning. "YOU will do nothing! It's because of you and your stupid actions that Anzu wasn't able to give herself to me! She's still obsessed with you! Now, because she hesitated, Kaiba has her! Now get out of my sight!"
Malik pushed Bakura to the ground. Greatly agitated, Bakura quickly left before he could lash out at his master. On the way out, he ran into Valon, who said, "Nicely done. Because you made the move on her, we lost her."
Bakura just growled and took off. Valon turned to Rex and Weevil, who were nearby, and said, "Our elder is turning soft and weak."
