Me: Chapter five. I'm really liking the reviews so far.
Yugi: I know you got sixteen reviews now.
Ryou: So what happens in this chapter.
Me: To make it brief. Yugi and Joey are going to try and save you and Marik even though you don't really need saving but theres going to be a surprise twist in the story.
Joey: Does it involve me and money bags?
Me: Maybe *smirks.* I'm not giving anything away. Someone do the disclaimer.
Joey: Horrorstar100 doesn't own Yugioh.
Seto: She only does this since she has no life and makes no profit off this.
Me: Shut it richy rich. Your still pissed about your brother aren't you?
Seto: What do you think?
Me: Don't worry. I'm going to make sure you, Bakura and Yami get revenge and possibly Duke as well.
Everyone: On with the story!
Yugi and Joey followed the blood trail that was thinning out more but once it came to an opening Yugi looked through the metal grate.
"Is the coast clear?" Joey whispered as Yugi saw the lycans distracted by something. Their cheers and rowdy yells showed they wouldn't notice the vampires unless they made a loud noise.
"Yeah but we have to stay really quiet." Yugi said as Joey nodded. Once removing the grate Yugi crawled slowly before standing quietly. Joey did the same as they started to look around for a way to go. Joey tapped Yugi's shoulder and pointed to a hall way that lead somewhere. Yugi nodded as they stepped quietly and slowly making sure not to alert the lycans of their arrival.
It seemed that once they made it to the hallway the distraction the lycans had worked really well. Heading deeper into the hallway it had some doors that seemed to be locked but someone screaming alerted the vampires.
"Isn't dat Marik?" Joey asked and Yugi nodded as they headed to the door that the screams came from. Joey grabbed a gun loaded as Yugi did the same once twisting the door nob. Once opening the door Joey had to cover his eyes and block Yugi from seeing to prevent seeing what was behind the door.
"Holy mother of god. My eyes!" Joey's shouts alerted Marik who was under the lycan and let out a scream before pushing Malik off him and covering up.
"Good Ra. How did you two get here let alone find me?" Marik asked covering his lower region with the sheets thankfully to Joey and Yugi but much to Malik's distaste.
"We followed Bakura's blood trail in the vents. What are you doing with him." Yugi pointed to Malik who was getting dressed since getting interupted while he was with his mate was a major turn off for him.
"Turns out he's my mate." Marik said sheepishly as he scratched the back of his head. Joey and Yugi looked at Marik as if he grew a second head. Constantly flicking back and forth from the lycan and their friend.
"Your mate might be a psycho lycan but congrates." Joey said as Marik smiled and Yugi gave a questioning look to the lycan.
"Hurt my friend and I'm sticking a silver stake up your ass." Yugi threatened the lycan that rolled his eyes.
"I'm not going to hurt my own mate but if your looking for your fluffy friend. He's with Bakura and Duke is with Yami." Malik said getting a confirmed look from Yugi.
"So Ushio never killed Yami?" Yugi asked while Malik smirked.
"Oh you heard that in your little vampire book didn't you? Ushio is too much of a pussy to try and take down Yami. They cut a deal with one another though. Yami lays low and Ushio kills the elders for him."
"Why would Ushio try to kill da Elders?" Joey asked puzzled by what was said while Malik's smirk widened.
"Ushio wants a peace treaty with the lycans. Now if all the elders were to suddenly drop dead then Ushio will be king of vampires. Imagine that dumbass as a king." Malik said while Yugi didn't want to think about that.
"Wait did Ushio really cut the brand off Yami or did he do it for him?" Malik seemed to think before shrugging it off.
"I don't know. Yami said he had to cut it off himself since Ushio was such a little bitch about it." Malik said while Yugi, Marik and Joey sniggered. Seems their captain had a lot of explaining to do.
"So now what?" Marik asked looking at his friends that seemed to shrug.
"We were the rescue party but it seems theres no need for rescuing." Yugi said while Marik looked puzzled.
"Wait. You two are the only ones here?" the two vampires nodded at the question while Marik looked pissed.
"Urgh that asshole king! Just wait Zorc. You killed my family and use me as your fucking pawn! Just wait till I get my hands on you and rip you apart!" Marik shouted now getting dressed meeting confused looks from Joey and Yugi.
"Wait I thought lycans killed your family." Yugi said while Marik looked at the two sympathetically.
"He lied. It wasn't just my family but all of ours. He used our vulnerablity to his advantage and we ended up where we are now." Marik said meeting shocked faces of Joey and Yugi.
"How did you find out?" Yugi asked facing away from his friend and Marik sighed.
"Duke. He told me and Ryou about how Zorc would lose his control and kill the families like ours but we reminded him of his daughter. Duke's sister that was killed by Zorc." Marik said now fully dressed and met the shocked look of Joey.
"Zorc killed his own daughter?" Marik nodded.
"I don't know why or what started it but I think we need to do something about it." Marik said as he looked down the hallway to see it clear.
"Where to now?" Joey asked while Malik walked past pulling Marik along with him as the two vampires followed.
"Your fluffy friend is with Bakura. Didn't think his mate would be someone so innocent." Malik muttered the last part while Joey and Yugi halted to a stop.
"Ryou's mate is your psycho friend?" Joey asked incrediously and the two nodded.
"I know. We can discuss it later but come on." Marik said as they headed down the hallway to Bakura's room. Once opening it Ryou was sitting next to the lycan on the bed luckily not doing what Marik and Malik were doing.
"Yugi. Joey. What are you guys doing here?" Ryou asked puzzled while Bakura looked questioningly at them.
"Yes what are you all doing here?" they all froze at the voice. Turning to see Seto standing behind them with his gaze narrowed at everyone.
"Kaiba. What a pleasent surprise." Malik said not liking how Seto was here now looking at them with a questioning look.
"Cut the crap Malik. What are those two vampires doing here?" Seto hissed at them as Joey chose to speak.
"We were here to save our friends that you kidnapped. Thank you very much." Joey said earning a colder gaze from Seto.
"Watch yourself mutt."
"Yah know. Your irony is really funny." Joey said back at Seto who looked like he would tear his head off in seconds.
"Look as much as I would love to see Kaiba in killer mode. I figured out your little test worked." Bakura said now fully dressed with Ryou next to him now standing in the doorway.
"What test?" Joey said looking at the evident smirk that marked Seto's features.
"You mean they're both..." Bakura nodded as he held a bottle with vervain.
"Lets see if blondie is as well." Bakura pretty much threw the liquid at Marik who held his hands up to protect his face but he just appeared soaked without the burning like acid sensation "Looks like your experimentation worked." Bakura said smirking at the blonde who glared at him for getting him drenched.
Crashing sounds made them turn to see the younger lycans with Raphael who was smirking at them.
"Stand down Raph. They're not a threat." Seto said while Raphael's smirk widened.
"I don't take orders from you Seto. I'm my own person as well as the other lycans. We're taking control." Raphael said as a shot rang through and hit the lycan in front of him. The lycan then tried to take the bullet out but the leaking silver metal was starting to leak through the bullet hole. They turned to see the shot came from Duke who was holding a hand gun next to Yami.
"Liquified silver mixed with wolfsbane. My newest weapon." Duke said smiling as lycans growled ferociously at them.
"Time to go now." Yami said as Seto, Joey, Yugi, Marik, Malik, Ryou and Bakura followed him with the lycans following them. Yami lead them to the testing room and as soon as everyone that wasn't trying to kill him was in the room they shut the door locking it from the inside.
"Okay. Now what?" Yugi said as Yami and Seto packed some of their research and put bloodbags into a cooler.
"We can't stay here for now but it doesn't mean we can't continue our research. We'll leave the city for now." Yami said as he put the siringe needles into their carry case with everything else he and Seto needed.
"great plan but how do we get out?" Marik asked Malik pulled the table that Malik was once strapped to block the door and revealed a ladder going down.
"Oh." Marik said looking down and Duke pulled out a bag filled with guns.
"I'm not sure how many lycans there are but we'll need these." he produced several hand guns with his newest design of bullets "Best part is..." Duke gave the bullet to Yami and upon contact it didn't burn him "... A lycan can use it." Duke said smiling as he gave everyone a gun holding his own close to him. Everyone looked down the hole as Yami just stepped into it and went down. It wasn't till everyone heard a dull thud that Seto went next.
Everyone went one after the other and found themselves in what looked like a carpark. They all followed Yami since he had a better sense of direction on where to go. They came to a van and Seto luckily had the keys.
"I'm driving." Yami said while a scowl was evident on Seto's features as he threw Yami the keys.
"Shotgun." Yugi said while Joey groaned. He didn't want to sit with Seto or as he called him the stick up the ass lycan.
Everyone got in the back that had no seats but everything from the testing room was in the front seat with Yugi. The sounds of howls told them they had to go quickly as Yami started making it out of the carpark and onto the road. The lycans now following in wolf form.
The thuds on the roof told them a lycan had caught up as the back door was opened revealing two snarling lycans looking at everyone with a murderous looks.
"Drive faster!" Bakura shouted at Yami who was avoiding cars and trying to get the lycan off the roof. Duke grabbed one of Joey's old guns and shooted at the roof hearing the occasional cries of pain. The lycans that were currently in the van with everyone was getting shot but it managed to pull Marik by his leg and bite him on the shoulder earning a cry of pain from the boy but Malik transformed and began to fight the lycan. Marik held his shoulder but looking at the lycan that was trying to kill Malik brought on a new rage.
His skin started to darken to midnight blue as his fangs lengthened and nails turned to claws while his eyes changed to being black with his irises glowing violet. He let out a snarling growl as he jumped on the lycan that pinned Malik. Once getting his hands wrapped around the ears he pulled hard and managed to tear the lycan apart growling. Once throwing the lycan out the open door he turned to the other that was trying to pull Ryou away from Bakura who was holding onto him.
Ryou's skin started to go paler with a slight blue to it as his fangs grew like Mariks with his nails extending to claws and his eyes going black with red irises. He let out a piercing shriek before proceeding to tear out the lycan's throat. The lycan managed to avoid getting torn apart by the clawed hands and scratched Ryou along the face earning a small cry of pain. Ryou glared coldly as the lycan roared back at him each one challenging the other to make the first move.
The lycan attacked first as Ryou grabbed it by the neck and finally tore the throat out earning choking gasps from the lycan before it was kicked out the open door onto the road. Both Ryou and Marik managed to calm down and returned to their once normal state but their new wounds weren't healing.
Joey closed the door as Duke managed to get the lycan off the roof after continuous shooting and they all turned to Ryou who had a nasty scratch along his face and Marik who had his shoulder gnawed into.
"Why aren't they healing?" Joey asked as Seto took a few blood samples from Ryou and Marik. He was studying the blood with a small machine from his pocket.
"Their healing cells are active but weakened. They might survive like vampires. Wheres the nearest blood bank?" Seto asked as Yami started thinking.
"Ten minutes away but the lycans are all over the city." Yami said as he continued driving and Yugi seemed to be thoughtful about the current situation.
"Drive to Granger point." Yugi said while everyone tensed.
"Why there?" Bakura asked holding Ryou against him.
"Thats one of the lairs of my kind." Yugi answered as Bakura growled low.
"Whats the nearest town?" Malik asked seeing Marik was starting to fall asleep.
"Two hours away. They won't last that long." Yami said as it seemed they didn't have much of a choice. Granger point was their last option.
Me: There. Finished. ^.^
Bakura: When are you going to update 'Intertwined fates'?
Me: Soon. I just finished this after my maths exam.
Ryou: Hope you did well Horrorstar.
Me: Thanks. Well I hope you like the small twist since the gang are together but Yami's kind are sort of rebelling against him. Will he stop his kind from killing each other or will Zorc be victor?
Joey: Don't make them anxious.
Me: Why not?
Ryou: Read and Review!
Me: Thanks Ryou.
