------------------------at Monteague's------------
Dr. Bee had driven up to Monteague's apartment building expecting to see that the proclaimed 'smartest vampire Yami had ever met' lived in a rich high end hotel it surprised her to see that the man lived in a old dirty looking place that was in dire need of a 'facelift'. she went up the stairs and found his door number, she hesitantly knocked glancing around this didn't seem like a good neighborhood to live in period.
"who is it?" she hear him call from inside
"Yami sent me" she replied hoping Yami's name would make him open the door
"name please Yami has been in bad relations lately" he responded his heavy French accent tinging his voice as he seemed to be distracted by something
"Dr. Bee, sir, if I remember right you are the one who brought Yugi in to meet me on her first visit" she said through the door
"oh Mrs. Bee come in come in" she heard him say as the door opened quickly she was drawn in swiftly and the door shut behind her. Dr. Bee backed up into the door slightly frightened by the man's sudden acceptance and the fact that a few small soft things were bumping into her shins.
"sorry for the mess I'f been kind of busy with these little feather balls" he apologized picking the things up. Dr. Bee's eyes slowly adjusted to the darkness of the room and she looked up at Monteague; the tall man was holding three birds that to her quite resembled large parrots with one huge one perched on his shoulder
"oh my" she said astounded by the big man
"so, what did Yami send you all the way here for?" he asked moving away and setting the largest bird on the floor.
"Well, this whole thing is just strange to me, but he told me he was a vampire and so was Yugi and he said you knew some about vapiric pregnancies" she said moving away from the door
"I'm sorry do you have a light in here I can't see a thing, I don't want to step on your pets" she added politely unable to make out the floor from the walls.
"No, my apology I should have lit something for you sooner, I don't often get human company so I don't think about it, again pardon the mess you are about to see" he said making his way to a lamp and turning it on hatchlings still in arms. Dr. Bee's eyes widened at the sight
"you definitely love to read don't you?" she commented looking around at the book lined walls there were stacks upon stacks of books every where.
"oh yes Yami must have told you I own my own miniature library basically, and I'm one of the world's best experts on vampire pregnancy or put it this way any kind of pregnancy" he said happily smiling as he left the room and put Tupelo, Margalo, and Suzaku in his bedroom shutting the door,
"I'll be back in a little bit" he whispered before returning to the main room on his apartment
"four hundred and forty years extra will do that to you" he said still wearing his broad smile
"years extra?" Dr. Bee asked curiously, getting off topic.
"I was forty years old when I became a vampire, Yami was around his early twenties and Yugi I have yet to figure out how old she is I know she hasn't had a birthday yet-"
"seventeen dear" Pira said clearly hopping up onto his back and sitting on his shoulder
"oh it speaks?" Dr. Bee commented
"I'm not an it I'm a she" Pira responded her speech once lacking had developed completely over the months.
"Pira don't be rude" Monteague said taking her off his shoulder again
"sorry Monty" she said hopping off and perching on a book pile
"she talks" Dr. Bee said blondly the world was full of surprises for her today.
"surely you've read fantasy books with phoenix in them this beauty is no different she talks up a storm, so what did you want to ask me?" Monteague asked her realizing they were wondering away from the subject
"ask? oh, oh yes, erm, I need to know every thing on the differences between normal human and vampire pregnancy, like, is that Ryou thing a vampire's child?" she asked
"I actually have books I've written on the subject around here, more like diaries from my ex-wife, she up and left me two months ago, she didn't like the fact I like to read so much, as for Ryou he's a special case he's what happens when the woman drinks nothing but animal's blood and specific foods during the pregnancy" he said moving to search the room for the aforementioned books
"animal's blood?" Dr. Bee asked disgustedly
"oh yes, um, vampires usually drink human blood we only drink animal blood if necessary not as an everyday drink" he said still rummaging around in his books
"I need to get the organized" he murmured to himself as he plucked one of the books he was looking for from the pile.
"where do you get human blood I know if you bit people all the time you would be moving this library of yours constantly" she said taking the book handed to her
"you know you are one of the first people I've met to come to that conclusion, but where almost all vampires in the world get their blood is off the internet specialty sites for sanguinarians, false vampires who don't need the blood" he said
"it's amazing you all don't get caught by the government for that" she replied sitting down on the couch as she watched Monteague
"where did you come from anyway?" she asked trying to avoid silence and learn about these vampires
"France, Yami and Seto are from Egypt, Yugi's from Japan, I think, Marik and Malik are from some where around here, and Jou is from Boston" he said listing off the family.
"I haven't had the chance to meet Seto and those last three" she replied
"Seto is the tall brunette he's Yami's advisor and physician Jou is his lover the blond that lives with them and Malik and Marik are dragons that live in the mansion's basement if a sandy blond answered the door that's Marik" he said describing them for her.
"oh, yes I remember him... You said something about Yami being in bad relations lately what does that mean?" she asked arching a thin eyebrow
"well lately he has been running into people he made mad in the past he had Bakura last year, just before he got married, try to kidnap his wife and kill her, he died trying, and now he's got some sort of Set, god-thing, after him, ah here it is I knew it hadn't gotten burned" Monteague said pulling out a thick older looking book
"one of the ones I wrote before there were type writers, at least I knew English" he said returning with the slightly thick book.
"wow, you write too" she said amusedly
"yep I've had enough time in my life I've written books on the physical aspects of marriage and many other things this is just one of them" he responded leaving her for the kitchen as she flipped through the old book
"you are a good artist as well" Dr. Bee complemented
"well you know us French we like our art" he replied from the refrigerator she guessed he was getting the blood he had told her about when she saw him pull out a wine bottle
"you are a very nice man all around why would any woman give you up?" she said amusedly
"I outlive them, I just don't have the heart to change a woman because there's always that chance that I'll change her and she'll decide I'm not worth it and leave" Monteague told her sadly love was such a tender subject with him.
"You will find one someday" she told him as he returned to the living room
"well if you need any help understanding any of that you are welcome to stop by at anytime, um, you know I never asked for your name how rude of me" he said sheepishly
"Harriet Bee" she filled in the blank for him.
"you can stop by any time Miss Harriet" he said grinning as he helped her up out of the sunk in couch.
"you mean I can take this with me?" she asked astounded that he would let her have and original, very old, handwritten book
"I trust you will keep it safe" she replied leading her towards the door.
"I'm sorry if I seem to be pushing you to leave but my hatchlings sound hungry, and I can hear them calling, so good bye I'll see you soon I guess" he said
"oh I completely forgot how is Yugi doing okay I hope" he said suddenly
"she is just fine" she replied opening the door.
"good bye Monteague" she said closing the door on him. He sighed and walked back into the kitchen with a big goofy grin on his face
"I think I'm in love" he sighed taking a swig on his bottle of blood.
--------------------------------at the Mansion--------------------------------------------
"Jou have you seen that big fledgeling anywhere?" Seto asked him "nope not since you cut those chains of their necks" he replied looking up and down the hall way.
"well I just saw the other one asleep on my room when I asked him where his other half had gone he pointed at the door and said 'out' and I haven't seen him any where" he said scratching the back of his neck
"have you checked the library Ryou tends to like to climb around in there" Jou said getting as close to Seto as possible without being on top of him
"no, I haven't, actually I checked every where but there" he said kissing Jou before moving off in the direction of the library.
Ba strolled around the 'weaponry' he was toying with the though of what he should use first on the pharaoh, the spike chair, the pear, or maybe he could just go with stabbing and whipping then breaking every bone in his body like way back when in Egypt. He could just have too much sadistic fun with this and this Seto idiot had provided it all for him
/I'll let you have your fun with him after I've had my turn/ growled another voice, Set.
"I'm going to tear out his heart flay out his muscles and totally mutilate his torso to the point where he won't heal ever again, what did you want to do?" Ba hissed to him as he picked up a long sword that could probably have cut a horse in half.
/I want his mind, I want to make him wish for death, I want his children, and I want to cause him even more pain by killing his wife during childbirth, you seem not to have plans for her/ Set replied, Ba could almost feel the god's dog-like muzzle splitting into a sharp toothed grin.
"can I at least put her under a little more stress, I want to 'play' with her" he growled putting the sword down and selecting an old shot gun off another shelf, guaranteed to fill anyone shot at full of lead beads.
/just don't harm her offspring, I want them/ Set replied allowing Ba to continue his search in silence, until he decided to return to the glass elevator and throw on the act of innocent abused fledgeling.
meanwhile Yami and Yugi were downstairs in the living room cuddling Yugi had started to feel better and was resting with her head on his chest
"you know you make the best pillow" she said cuddling into him
"you've told me before, my koi" Yami replied nuzzling into the top of her head
"dang it leave me alone!" Ryou cried ruining the sweet cuddle moment and drawing Yami's attention to the older fledgeling that had just slinked quickly into the room with the slightly larger Ka following him closely Yami followed the fledgelings as they crawled over almost every surface of the room Ka following Ryou constantly Ryou finally gave up and quietly led Ka into the entry way outside of the living room still attached to the cieling and Yami heard a fierce growl and a dull thud followed by a loud
"stop following me!" and yipe.
"life is as is should be" Yugi said sighing and napping on her husbands chest.
notes: Monteague is falling in l-o-v-e awwww! (if you are wondering Harriet Bee is in her late thirties around 38 or 39 and Monteague's body is stuck at 40 so it's okay people).
As for the torture devices Bakura was thinking of the spike chair is exactly what it sounds like it's a spike covered chair, as for the pear it's best you guys go look it up on wikapedia or something. And as for this chapter in general it was like a filler.
I have more/advanced Yugi baby birth calculations there will be two weeks in one week so ten weeks in all that means she will deliver at thirty three weeks in ten weeks time (please tell me if you understood that because I just barely understood it myself).
Gruzzee: Damn you evil Ba!
