Chapter 7

"Hey, let me go! Let me go right now!" yelled Mana; her arms was binded behind her back by thick ropes as well as her wings. Bakura forced her to sit in a corner of the room while Marik was skimming through books he picked out of shelves nearby before tossing them to the floor."Stop that!" Mana yelled. "Those are Mahad's most precious spell books! You'll ruin them!"

Marik looked at the helpless vampire and smirked. "Then tell us how to use a manipulative spell, little girl," he said.

"First, I'm not a little girl, and second, you're not even smart enough to use a simple spell, you dumb-looking gorilla!" Mana said angrily.

Marik's eyebrow then twitched at the insult. "You tell us the fucking spell or we'll kill you," he growled threatenly as his fangs lengthened.

"If you kill me, then how will you get the spell?" retorted Mana as she stuck her tongue out. Marik took a step forward, but Bakura gestured him to stop.

"What other options are ther involving manipulation, girl?" asked Bakura.

"There's one called 'The Conscious Potion'," Mana replied rudely. "But you'll never know which ingredients to use or how to make it. Besides, why do you need it?" Bakura smiled devillishly as he took out a pair of leather gloves out of his pocket and put it on. "W-what are you doing?" Mana asked timidly.

"I know how to make you tell us about the potion recipe," sneered Bakura as he took out a small pouch out of his other pocket. He opened it and pulled out a silver heart-shaped locket. Mana's eyes went wide as he crouched in front of her and held the locket close to her face.

"Well, will you tell us, or would you rather be burned by something as small as this?" chuckled Bakura. Manan then whimpered in fear as she nodded.

"It's . . . . in the third book from the left, on the fourth shelf," she said finally. Marik looked up at the shelves and found the dark grenn leather-bound book. He took it out and flipped through the pages until he found it.

"here it is, 'The Conscious Potion'," he sneered as he ripped the page out. "Now we can go." Bakura put the locket back into the pouch, which then went back into his pocket. He then took off the gloves and put it back into his other pocket nefore untying Mana.

"It would be wise for you to put the books back into the shelves before your mentor comes back," laughed Bakura as he stood up and they left, leaving Mana sighed deeply in relief.

Anzu groaned as she blinked several times from the sun's rays before sitting up. She saw Atem sitting beside her, holding some clothes and a paper box. "Good morning, Atem," she smiled as she hugged him.

"Good morning, my love," Atem smiled as he kissed her lips. "Here, these are from Jonouchi and his girlfriend, Mai." He handed the clothes and the box to Anzu. Anzu opened the box, revealing a patially-eaten chocolate cake.

"A cake?" she questioned as she looked at Atem, who shrugged his shoulders.

"I'm not so sure what humans eat during the day," he said. "Jonouchi eats your food once in a while." He stood up, stretching his black wings. "Take a shower and change to those clothes," he smirked as he left. After a while, Anzu came out of the bathroom, blushing deeply.

Her new clothes consisted of a tight pale pink tank-top with spaghetti straps and extra cleavage, red fingerless leather gloves, and a tight magenta leather micro-mini skirt. She looked down at the first floor and saw Atem, who was looking up at her as he chuckled softly. "I'm sorry, Anzu," he smirked. "I forgot Mai wear those clothes like that."

"You don't mean to be sorry, Atem," smiled Anzu as she walked down the stairs. "You didi this on purpose." She then ran up to Atem and jumped into his arms, causing them to stumbled back to the black-colored couch. Anzu laughed at Atem's surprised expression on his face. "You're so cute when you look like that," she giggled as she sat on his lap.

"I'm not cute," retorted Atem playfully. "I'm the most powerful vampire ever." He kissed her lips; his tongue slip past them and played with her tongue. After a moment, they pulled away as they breathed heavily.

"It would be a shame to waste these clothes," Atem chuckled as he caressed her inner thighs.

"No, Atem, I'm a still a little sore fom last night," replied Anzu. Atem kissed her lips softly.

"Okay, Anzu," he smiled. "I don't want to pressure you in any way."

"The Conscious Potion?" questioned Terria as she looked at the page before glancing at Marik and Bakura. They were in a dimly lit room with three large dark-colored couches and Terria was sitting in one of them. "The potion is said to manipulate the victim's movement and speech while they're still conscious and it can last for about two hours," she said after reading what it was.

"Is it good enough for the plan, Terria?" smirked Marik as he sat next to her.

'Yes it's good," smiled Terria. "How to make it isn't so hard; the major ingredient we need is the victim's one strand of hair." She turned the page and her smile widened. "This is a two-in-one potion. We have to make the potion in the 'giver' and 'reciever' way."

"What do you mean by that?" asked Bakura, who was already sitting across from them.

"The reciever potion is for the victim and the giver potion is for the manipulator," replied Terria.

"Then I should drink the giver potion," Marik suggested.

"No, your mind is too simple for this," sneered Bakura.

"I'll drink the giver potion," Terria said. "After all, it was my idea. Anyway, getting the rest of the ingredients shouldn't be so hard to find. Find these, Marik, and hurry up about it." She handed the page to Marik, who then took it and stood up.

"Find these things, she said. Get these stuff, she said," he muttered to himself as he left the room. Terria stared at Bakura and smirked seductively.

"If things go according to plan, you and Marik will become the new leaders of the vampires," Bakura smirked as he stood up, looming over the other vampire. "But what would that leave me, Terria?"

Terria laid on the couch,with her legs slightly opened. "That would leave you on top of me."

Yawning, Anzu sat up straight before stretching her arms out; all day she read books she found interesting in the living room while atem napped upstairs. "I'm so hungry," she mumbled; she didn't eat the chocolate cake since it appeared to have bite marks. Knowing Atem, he doesn't supplied human food.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the metal doors. "Um, who is it," asked Anzu.

"It's Malik and Ryou," came the muffled reply. "Listen, we're really sorry that we scared you, but we didn't know you were Atem's . . . girlfriend." Anzu walked towards the doors and opened one. Malik and Ryou, each carry8ing a small plastic bag, walked inside.

"Here, these are some food humans like you eat," smiled Ryou as he and Malik handed her the small bags full of snacks.

"Thank you," Anzu smiled. "Oh, excuse me for wearing these clothes."

"Doesn't matter," replied Malik. "Females usually dressed like that in our society. So . . . . Ryou told me that Atem said you are his girlfriend."

"Yeah, that's what Atem said," Anzu said as she went badk to the couch and took out a small candy bar from the bags. "He always seemed so--ow!" She scratched her head as she turned around.

"I'm sorry, I saw a lint in your hair," Malik said quickly. "Anyway, we have to go now." He and Ryou turned to leave.

"Bye, see you later," said Ryou and they left. Ryou walked in one direction and Malik walked the opposite, holding a strand of Anzu's hair. Wonder why Marik dared me to pluck out the human girl's hair, he thought with a puzzled look on his face.
