Two weeks after that day, Yami was still pampering Yugi, even though she told him multiple times that she was fine; she still took frequent naps, and the soreness had gone down. Malik and Marik had come up and congratulated her, later that one morning, and were staying up stairs now. The day finally came for her next doctors appointment and she still had yet to hear from Monteague,
"Yami? Should we stop by and check up on Monteague?" Yugi asked putting on her jacket; her stomach had just the slightest pooch to it she had gained barely any weight by now.
"I guess so, are you going to let me come this time?" Yami asked coming up behind her and giving her a kitten-like lick to the back of her ear.
"Yes, you can come if you want," Yugi replied nuzzling the side of his head and turning to give him a small kiss.
"I'm coming, I want to know what they're doing to you," Yami told her rubbing her stomach where the small bulge had formed.
"Now lets go check on Monty," he added lightly pushing her towards the door. They got out only to be met with a high snow drift,
"Seto and Jou really need to get out here and clear this off," Yugi said as they both crouched to jump, they hopped, with Yami holding her arm all the way, to Monteague's apartment. When they got there Yami had to dig the snow away from the door, at the same time knocking.
"Hello?" Yes, Monteague was in there.
"It's Yugi and Yami open up!" Yugi cried, cold by now, the door burst open, flinging Yami and the rest of the snow away.
"Come in quick!" he said raggedly, pulling the pair in and shutting the door behind him fast.
"Monteague, what the heck-" Yami started, but he was quickly cut off by three fluffy things hopping past his ankles, cheeping up a storm.
"peep, peep, peep, peep, peep," all three of them and all three of the things, now looking about the size of footballs, each piled onto Monteague, in a multicolored bunch peeping like mad.
"I'm sorry you two, but Pira's eggs hatched and all I've had time for are the chicks and to sleep and drink," he said sounding tired.
"Well say hello to Tupelo, Margalo, and Suzaku." he said lifting each of them, now that Yugi saw them feminine instincts kicked in.
"Awww, they are adorable," she said, taking one from him, the one she picked up was a deep blue with little hints of silver and its mothers goldenrod yellow.
"That's Suzaku," Monteague said as he watched Yugi cuddle the little bird lovingly.
"This one is Margalo," he said holding up the little one, it was covered in red and yellow mix with tiny blue flecks on her face.
"And this is Tupelo, she's slightly crippled so she has bad balance," he ended holding out the other bird in his hand, she was peeping just like the rest, she had some green and silver with a little red coming in on her head, all of them, though, had large adorable black eyes.
"They are following me all over the house, just like their mother," he added putting them down; Yugi continued to cuddle Suzaku though.
"Yugi he's not yours," Monteague said carefully taking the baby from her and setting him down to join the other two, Yugi let out a small, "awww," but dropped it at that,
"How are you?" he asked patting her on the shoulder.
"I'm fine and it's beginning to show," she said brightening and looking up at him.
"Showing? Already? Now you shouldn't be showing this soon," Monteague said.
"Well we'll just have to see what's up then won't we?" Yami said wrapping his arms around her.
"Oh yes today is your second visit," Monteague said.
"We were just stopping by to check on you, since you haven't contacted us in two weeks," Yugi replied smiling.
"Well thank you, but I'm fine, these three and their mother have been keeping me busy, oh by the way, Pira!" he called, the larger bird hopped/walked into the room,
"Whaaaat?" Came Pira's developing voice, she had gotten bigger, her head on her long neck came up to Yami's stomach.
"We have guests," he told her.
"Yami, Yugi," she squeaked out sounding happy.
"She's definitely talking better," Yami said edging away slightly, he loved her, but was still slightly shifty around her especially now that she was bigger, much larger than her chicks. Pira hopped over to the three who were playing with each other; Suzaku had hopped on top of Tupelo and stared a birdie wrestling match, Pira delicately snatched up a little trouble maker by a wingtip and set her down farther away, this one being Tupelo wobbled off, falling on her side a few times before Monteague finally picked her up.
"Well we best be going," Yami said, seeing that Monteague was in love with the little chicks and had sat down with Tupelo on his large chest.
"Can we come back later?" Yugi asked him a slight maternal instinct kicking in,
"If you want to, yes," Yami replied kissing her lightly on the cheek.
"Now lets go," Yami said leading Yugi towards the door. The pair left and made their way to the hospital, they walked in and Yugi asked for her doctor, Dr. Bee, getting in to the exam room. Yami sat next to her, fidgeting nervously, ever since Yugi had been here for her heart he had almost always related it as bad news when he came.
"Yami, it's okay, we may get to see the baby today," Yugi said patting her husband on the shoulder.
"How will we do that? You aren't far enough along to deliver," Yami said confusedly.
"Of course not, you've never heard of an ultrasound?" She asked laughing at him.
"An ultrasound?" Yami repeated,
"Yeah it's a machine that can scan through my stomach and look at the baby, like a live X-ray," Yugi replied rubbing her stomach a bit.
"Oh those-" Yami said when the door opened and Dr. Bee stepped in,
"So how is our little mother-to-be feeling?" she asked sweetly.
"Better than last time, still tired but not as much, and my chest is feeling better," Yugi replied smiling.
"That's always a good thing, you were only sore because of your hormone levels rising," she said putting her stethoscope to her chest going through the entire breath in breath out routine.
"So how did your husband take the news?" she asked off handedly, helping her lay back again.
"Why don't you ask him?" Yugi said nodding towards her quiet husband; Dr. Bee had missed him.
"Oh, so this is the infamous Mr. Mouto? You two really look made for each other," she said turning to look at him.
"Hello," he said smiling at her slightly.
"He's just shy," Yugi said giggling lightly.
"Oh... So how's your stomach?" she said switching the subject off Yami, who watched tentatively from his chair.
"Fine, a little pudge, but not much, nothing compared to how I'm going to look," Yugi replied,
"Well I'm just going to feel around," she said lifting Yugi's shirt off her belly.
"Oh dear," Dr. Bee said.
"What's wrong?" Yugi asked worriedly.
"Oh nothing dear, I just wasn't expecting you to be showing this much by now," she said, calmly, pressing her fingers into Yugi's belly, feeling around. She left her alone and Yami shuffled over to Yugi.
"What's wrong?" he whispered lovingly rubbing her shoulder.
"Nothing Yami, I'm fine and so far, so is the baby," Yugi replied looking up at him. Dr. Bee pulled over the cart with the ultrasound machine on it.
"Okay, lets take a look at the baby," she said still wearing her calming smile, she put some sort of gel on Yugi's stomach that was warm to the touch, and sat down next to her, turning the machine on, she ran the little 'wand' over her belly, watching the screen and stopping every so often; she finally stopped all together.
"Okay, Yugi, here is your first baby," she said pointing to a tiny moving spot on the screen.
"That's our baby?" Yami asked incredulously, he'd never seen anything like this before.
"That's just one," she added moving a little to the left.
"Here is the other one,"
"Other one! There's another baby in there," Yugi squeaked, her eyes widening as she looked from her husband to the screen, where she was pointing.
"Yes, Yugi that is why you are showing this early, you have deffinate twins in there," Dr. Bee said happy for Yugi.
"Yami? Please say something," Yugi said still looking at the screen with wide eyes.
"I'm going to be the father of twins! Twins!" Yami said quickly drawing Yugi into a hug and nuzzling her cheek happily.
"I love you," he said kissing her on the cheek.
"Now that we know that you are carrying twins, I have more of a concern about your heart though," Dr. Bee told them, shutting off the machine, and interrupting them.
"Why? Is there going to be something wrong with them because of it?" Yugi asked looking back to her scared again.
"Well, you are a small person, and I am concerned that by the time the babies are far enough along to be delivered, that your heart may be so compressed that it will shut down during delivery," she said, making Yami look up from his wife at the mention of her heart shutting down.
"I'm not saying it will happen, but I'd like to keep a close eye on you, if you feel any unusual pain or start bleeding or any other things out of the ordinary, I want you to contact me immediately, all right?" she said carefully, seeing the pair's looks of worry and fear,
"Yes, yes we'll call you instantly if I feel anything strange," Yugi said shakily sitting up.
"All right then, Yugi you are free to go, remember, anything out of the ordinary and call," she said.
"Now the next time I should see you is next month," she added.
"Okay see you then," Yugi said whipping the gel off her stomach, she said good bye, and dazedly left with Yami, the older vampire walking right next to her as a support, he could tell she was happy, but on the inside he knew she was fighting tears at the thought of losing the babies and her life. They left the hospital, and, like Yami had promised, they went back to Monteague's, slipping in quickly like before.
"So how'd it go?" Monteague asked, sitting on the floor, now two of the chicks were running circles around him with Tupelo perched on his shoulder, picking at his red hair.
"Good," was Yugi response, before she reached down and picked up Suzaku again, cuddling him as she sat down on the couch.
"What's wrong with her?" he asked Yami, as lonely Margalo proceeded to climb his shirt to get to Tupelo.
"We found out she's carrying twins, and her doctor said that her heart might fail during the delivery because she's so small," Yami told him watching his little koi sit there and sadly stroke Suzaku's blue silver and gold feathers.
"Oh wow," was all Monteague could manage,
"She should be fine though, there are lots of women with heart arythmias that have had babies before," Monteague said hoping Yugi would hear and perk up a bit.
"Yes, but I don't think any of them had surviving twins," Yugi said holding Suzaku, as the little chick looked up at her with a lone peep, blinking those large eyes at her.
"Well, I don't know," Monteague said sitting down on the couch next to her.
"You'll be okay," he said patting her on the shoulder, Margalo saw her brother and walked off of Monteague and onto Yugi's lap, pecking at the top of his head, before settling down and preening the feathers on the back of his neck. Yugi looked down at the two and smiled,
"I guess you're right, I just don't want my bad heart to be the cause of one or both of them to die," Yugi said rubbing her stomach lightly, she wanted them both to survive and was waiting for the point when she'd be able to feel them move.
"Love, you'll be fine, just take it easy and keep taking your pills, and you and the babies will be just fine," Yami said, taking her other side and pulling her into his side, nuzzling her gently.
"Yeah you're right, I just get that odd feeling that something's going to happen," she said leaning on Yami's shoulder with the two chicks still on her lap.
"Nothing's going to happen," Yami said,
"You're all fine," he added rubbing her belly as well.
"Now why don't we go home and tell Jou and Seto the good news," Yami said carefully picking up Margalo and Suzaku separately and setting them down on Monteague, who had Tupelo on her back in his hands, all the while watching their mother as she watched him place each chick on her 'daddy's' lap.
"Okay," Yugi replied kissing him softly just below the ear, and standing up, brushing a couple feathers off her lap from where the chicks had been sitting.
"You're okay, right?" Monteague asked looking up at them, he was trapped under the three baby birds; Suzaku was hanging on his shirt fighting with Margalo, and Tupelo had struggled out onto his crossed leg and perched on his foot.
"Yeah, I'm all right," Yugi replied snickering as Pira came into the fray with small playful 'wrar'.
"Well good bye then, I'd hug you but I'm kind of stuck," Monteague said laughing a bit. With that they said their good byes and left, going back to the mansion.
"Are you tired at all," Yami asked once they had landed and gone inside.
"Yami, I'm fine I... just need a little nap," she replied yawning in mid-sentence.
"Oh, okay," Yami said sounding dejected,
"Yami, don't do that, I just want to take a little nap and then we can do whatever you want, body willing though," Yugi said hugging her husband before heading towards her temporary bed setup on the couch, but she found Ryou carefully curled on the foot of the couch. She laid down carefully, trying not to wake him and wrapped up in the blanket, dozing off quickly to the thought of the twins growing inside her belly.
------------------------------Yugi's dream-------------------------
Yugi sat there on an exam table, covered in sweat, no blood, just sweat, and there in her arms lay two perfect baby's, bawling in the light of their new world; Yugi smiled her eye's filling with tears at the sight of her newborn children, but was unable to tell what sex they were, all of a sudden everything flashed and it became dark, the light still shining on them, only outside of that circle it had become pitch black,
"Yami!" she called, still holding the babies, blood was slowly spreading across the blanket on her stomach, a clawed foot stepped into the circle, followed by the awful visage of Set, his eyes glowing red, his sharp teeth showing over his lips. He reached out to grab the babies from her, but Yugi curled around her children, guarding them, shutting her eyes
"no! Yami!" she cried, behind her closed eyes an image of her husband, bloody and shredded, flashed before her, a truly sickening sight, she screamed and the dream abruptly ended, leaving the image of Yami's shredded body burned into her mind.
-----------------------------------end dream-----------------------
"Yugi! Yugi! Wake up love!" cried Yami's voice, calling Yugi out of her nightmare. The little vampiress's eyes shot open and she saw Yami's face and screamed, backing away into the couch her eyes wide with terror.
"Yugi, it's all right it was just a bad dream," Yami said stroking her cheek gently as she continued to stare at him, trembling in fear.
"Y-y-yami," she whimpered scared, the image was there and kept flashing in her head.
"I'm right here dear, you're okay," Yami cooed trying to calm her so she wouldn't do harm to herself or the babies. She continued to pant lightly, shivering, she hid her face and began to sob in to her arms.
"Yami!" she cried, letting out heart wrenching cries. Yami sat down next to her and picked her up, holding her gently against his chest as she continued to cry.
"Shhh, Yugi, what's wrong?" he asked rubbing her back, quite aware that Ryou was watching them from the floor, she had kicked the fledgeling off the couch in her nightmare induced struggle.
"Please don't die on me," Yugi whimpered tears streaming down her face.
"I'm not going to die, I can't die," Yami responded kissing her on the top of the head as he cuddled her into his side, rocking her slowly, she was slowly starting to lose the power in her cries.
"Shh,sh,sh that's it baby," he said trying to sooth her even more, but Yugi heard the word baby and cried harder again, the dream had scared her so much.
"Awww, Yugi please stop crying and tell me what's wrong," Yami whispered to her. Ryou had been watching Yugi cry hysterically the entire time, and something took over his body; suddenly he got back on the couch and with no feeling at all, reached out and slapped the crying vampiress with his clawed hand; she went quiet staring fearfully at the fledgeling now as she clung to Yami's body, thoroughly shaken. Yami quickly snapped back, not holding back on his anger, he reached out and gripped hard onto his throat, digging his nails deep into the fledgeling's neck and squeezing, snapping Ryou back to normal.
"What the hell?" Ryou rasped as Yami put even more pressure on his throat.
"You just pissed of the wrong person," Yami growled, making Yugi let go of him, curling back up, scared again; Yami got up, lifting Ryou with him, he walked around the couch out of Yugi's line of view and proceeded to beat the tar out of Ryou for what he did, unaware that even the fledgeling didn't know what he had done. Yugi heard Ryou's cries of pain as Yami went at him from every angle and began to scream again.
"Stop it! Please just stop it-t-t-t!" she screamed, curling even tighter and holding her stomach to protect it. Yami heard her and dropped Ryou, going back to his wife, he held her again.
"Shhhh, my koi, shhhh," he whispered kissing her cheek, lightly licking the cuts left by Ryou's claws. Yugi's crying finally slowed down to whimpers on Yami's chest,
"Shh, what is wrong love?" he asked gently.
"Y-y-you were dead," she whimpered out,
"The babies were born, and I called and called for you," Yugi said tears still running down her face.
"Shh, it's okay, you're all right, I'm all right the babies won't be here for another eight months," Yami cooed, kissing her gently.
"You were in pieces," she whimpered, trying not to shut her eyes for fear of seeing that image again.
"I right here, I'm whole, and I'm alive my little koibito," Yami whispered stroking her back.
"Just relax baby, think of the babies, they are right there inside you still, and they need you to calm down," Yami said rubbing Yugi's belly softly as he whispered to her.
"I'm scared," Yugi whispered, trying to relax and think about the babies.
"I'm here don't be afraid," Yami whispered, rubbing her back lovingly. Yugi slowly relaxed thinking about the babies instead of the nightmare,
"Please stay with me," she said as Yami laid her back down on her very soft makeshift bed.
"I'll stay right here with you," Yami replied, nuzzling her gently as he laid down next to her, holding her against his chest as the little vampiress dozed off.
Meanwhile, Ryou slowly stood up, gingerly handling the way he moved his back; multiple bruises decorated his naturally pale body and open wounds had opened on a few of them.
"Ah-ah-ahah-ah-ow," he panted limping, awfully and dragging one of his feet as he headed towards Marik and Malik's; having great difficulty climbing the stairs, he knocked carefully, shaking with the effort to stay up, the door opened and Ryou fell into the room, lying limply with his cheek pressed into the carpet.
"What happened to you!" Marik asked sounding startled, he changed and lifted Ryou over to their mattress.
"Yami, beat the shit out of me," he replied.
"He even bit my tail," he added, snaking his tail into the air enough to show the small row of two deep bite marks along his tail.
"What did you do to make him do that?" Marik said getting the rubbing oils and some bandages.
"Yugi was having a nightmare, I blacked out, and when I woke up Yami had his hands around my neck," Ryou said not remembering a thing.
"Well you must have done something bad to her to make Yami do this," Malik said sitting over him, still on the mattress, even he knew Marik was giving Ryou massages for his back, but he'd never been awake enough for it. Marik returned and sat Ryou up,
"Malik, would you like to help me with this massage?" he asked grinning.
"I'd love to," he responded as Marik changed and poured the oil onto his hands, Malik followed him, changing into his human form and taking the bottle from him, repeating his brother's actions, Marik began to rub over his back, and Malik did his front side, rubbing over his arms and chest with slick hands, the sensation of pleasure overtook pain by a long shot, and even though their fingers where pressing and rubbing cuts and bruises he began to moan and sigh like he usually did as his body was assaulted from both sides, Malik tenderly ran his soft fingers over Ryou's throat, brushing the sensitive skin over the major artery there and distorting the sound that was coming from him.
"He really a moaner isn't he?" Malik said chucking. They continued on down, following the bruises to the top of his usual white kilt.
"No way... Marik picture this, Yami's knee or fist coming at your groin with enough force to bruise," Marik hissed in response to the image,
"He got that?" Malik nodded grinning, he wanted to have some fun with Ryou.
"Should we see if he damaged anything important?" he asked still massaging the fledgeling's chest with his fingertips, the subject was barely even aware that they were talking.
"You dare?" Marik asked grinning and showing off his pointed teeth,
"I dare," he replied grinning evilly as he began to undo the fledgeling's belt.
Warning! Warning! Warning!
---------------------------------------------
"Impressive," was all Malik said once he'd taken off the kilt and under garments; Marik continued to push and knead his fingers into Ryou's back, still making the smaller one moan in pleasure; Malik continued to massage with one hand while he took the already beginning to harden member in his other slick hand, making Ryou cry out slightly and making his eye lids flutter.
"He can still feel," Malik murmured, smiling as he squeezed gently, and Ryou bent his head to the side as a vampire's sign of submission. Malik simply continued to run his hand up and down the shaft, making Ryou gasp and move his hips along with the hand that was making a snug tunnel around his arousal, not even thinking who it was and just acting on animal instincts alone.
Marik had to struggle to keep a good hold on his back, as Ryou moved to his brother's ministrations. Malik rubbed around the sensitive tip, using his thumb to press down into the slit making Ryou cry and moan in both slight pain and pleasure, he worked his way back down the rigid flesh to the base, and worked his fingers under to feel; knowing full well what he was about to do would set the little one off. He pressed from behind on his balls, and applied pressure to the top of the base with his thumb and Ryou screamed his release, his body going entirely rigid as his swollen member spurted out it's load over Malik's hand.
----------------------------------------------
End warning!
"It seem's you're in working order," he said licking his hand clean and putting a little more oil on his hands to rub into his own skin as the fledgeling's body quickly went limp and he laid down hard against the first thing in front of him, Malik.
"I think you put him to sleep," Marik said now able to rub Ryou's back again.
"No I didn't, he'll be up in a minute or two," Malik replied smiling as the older brother laid Ryou out on the mattress, with the little one still twitching slightly in after shock effects of his climax, tiny drops still spasming from his body as they covered him changing back to their dragon forms; Marik continued and Malik left for the bathroom, leaving Marik to work out the kinks with his paw 'thumbs'.
"Ooooh, you guys are good," Ryou moaned coming back to his senses as he lay out on his stomach.
"Why haven't you opened up shop again?" he asked after a few minutes.
"We don't want to, we are comfortable here," Marik replied running the fledgeling's tail through his hands.
"Are you okay?" he asked back,
"Yeah I'm feeling pretty good now," Ryou said arching his back slightly.
"Just don't do whatever you did again and you really be doing good," Marik said chuckling as the fledgeling in front of him tried to whack his fore arms with his long tail.
