Hall of Mirrors, part 5.
Disclaimer - I still don't own Yugioh. I can't even watch the show because the people here are mean. Give me money so I can secretly hire people to beat them up? *could do that myself but is lazy* 8O
Apologizes: I'm so sorry I haven't updated in awhile, I've been somewhat busy, so I have to say I'm sorry. *bow* =3 I really appreciate your encouraging reviews, too. *bow again*

To say Sess was alarmed was a misunderstanding. To say Sess nearly had a heart-attack was pretty close. One, she hadn't expected her master to bring back anyone with him. He rarely did that. Two, she knew what he expected of her now. He wanted to...well, feed. She didn't want to-no, she couldn't.
When she glanced up at her master (who had so sneakily emerged from the dark shadows), and a look of fear passed over her face. "Master, why...?" She whispered, knowingly very well he could hear her. "It's very simple, my dear. You haven't fed in awhile. I want you to try, alright?" He gave a smile, although not a comforting one.
Sess knew if she refused, there would be hell to pay, most likely. She couldn't just...feed, though. "I'm sorry, Master...I...I can't." He approached her slowly, each step he took driving more fear into her very soul. "Master...?" Her "master" promptly backhanded her, the force knocking her back into the wall.
She winced, feeling more pain shoot through her body. It was nothing she didn't expect, but the pain was worse than she had imagined. It -had- been awhile since her last punishment, being as obedient as she had for so long. "I expect you to obey me without hesitation or comments. Now do it." Roughly ripping off her chains, he shoved her forward to the sleeping human.
By now, it had been a while since Yugi had been brought to the building. He was beginning to wake up. Slowly, but nonetheless waking up. Sess stared at him nervously. Her master crossed his arms and disappeared back into the shadows. Sess knew he'd be checking on her every now and then, and that she a limited amount of time to complete his orders.
Frowning, she crawled over to Yugi, unsure of whether or not he had been harmed. After a thorough check, she sat by him, a great frown settled on her face. 'What am I to do? I can't feed on him, but I can't... just -not- feed, it just isn't done.' She thought to herself. Absent-mindedly running her fingers through the short male's hair, Sess sighed.
A groan startled her, causing her to fall back; to scamper back into the shadowy corner she had been tossed into earlier. "What...what happened?" A quiet voice whispered to themselves. Sess approached Yugi, cautiously, not wanting to frighten him. No doubt the poor guy was scared to death already.
"Are you alright?" Sess placed a hand on his shoulder, frowning. Yugi turned a screamed quite girlishly and loudly. "Yaarrgghh!" "Aaaah!" The two screamed their lungs out for a couple of minutes. Sess hissed, and Yugi pointed, both yelling simultaneously at each other. "What are -you- doing here?!"
"Wait, wait, calm down." Sess waved her hands in front of her, desperately trying to shut Yugi up before her master got far too upset and took the matter upon his own hands. "How did you get here?" She shifted position to sit more comfortably besides him.
Yugi stared at the ground, very confused now. "Well...I'm not sure, exactly. I remember being taken here, that's all." He rubbed the back of his head, feeling a nice, painful headache coming on. Grimacing at the thin layer of warm, crimson liquid on his hand, he frowned. "Where are we?"
Sess twirled a strand of hair around her fingers nervously. "Well...we are at a deserted house of mirrors." She grew hesitant to answer any of his questions. Furthermore, with her master watching her every moment now, wherever he may be, she was afraid she'd slip and he'd reveal her secret.
"Oh." The two remained silent for a period of time. The short male decided to break the silence. "Why are you here?" The question was left hanging. Sess did not answer him, mostly because she had no desire to. Finally, she decided to reply. "I don't know." "Oh...alright, I see."
As time passed, Sess grew more anxious. Her master would soon make a move if she didn't. Yet she hadn't bothered to do anything to Yugi, and nor would she ever - if she could help it. With every passing second, though, she found the scent of blood so tempting and appetizing. It was hard to resist, really, but she managed.
Strolling to the door, although knowing well she couldn't leave, Sess stared out of it quietly, lost in thought. Yugi had fallen asleep. Whether of his own will or not, Sess didn't know. She slipped past Yugi into the corner of a room, silently climbing up a steel ladder onto the loft.
"I can't." She whispered to herself. Yugi was too kind for her liking. Even though she understood he -knew- she was lying in parts of what she had told him, he said nothing and accepted what answers she had given him. She sighed, curling into a fetal position. Unaware that her master approached her from behind, Sess had no time to react when he struck her halfway off the edge of the loft.
A hiss of pain escaped her lips. Now a streak of crimson was smeared on the loft floor. The blood dripped from a thick wound on the under side of her arm. It appeared that the edge of the loft's floor had cut her. With a little struggling, Sess managed to stand, swaying now and then. Her master stood over her, clearly enraged.
"I gave you a chance you didn't deserve, and you disobeyed me!" He struck her down, but Sess had expected another strike and had a chance to keep from taking a full amount of damage. "If you don't do it, I'll do it myself!" Sess's eyes widened. "No!" Before she had a time to react, her master had already made his way down to our short little student.
Sess was in fast pursuit. She made it down the loft in a time of three second. Her master hadn't quite reached Yugi, thankfully for them. An invisible barrier surrounded him, keeping her master out for the time being. And although the barrier was strong, it drained her energy slowly, though it went through a long cycle so it would return to her.
When her master approached her, she let out a fit of rebellion and kicked him in the gut, knocking him back. While he lied on the ground, stunned, Sess took the opportunity to go through her barrier (1) and grab Yugi, hauling him over her shoulder.
Letting the barrier down, she took off running as fast as was possible out, past the abandoned fair, and to the city, where she knew her master wouldn't dare go after her, so long as she remained with people, in the light. But that was only if she could make it. And as she had left, all hell broke loose behind her.

1. Just so there aren't any misunderstandings, the owner of a vampire's barrier (in -this- story, anyways) can go through it.
