During her nap Susy had a horrible nightmare. She was a full blown slave of Marik's. He had taken over her mind and made her do whatever he wanted. He didn't take over her mind the same way he did the others though, for while the others were completely mindless, she just wasn't in control of her body. Her mind was very awake and aware the whole time, just not her body. No matter how hard she tried her body wouldn't listen to her. It was like she was trapped in another person's body. She was forced to go through the torture of just looking on helplessly as her body did as Marik commanded. It was agony, it truly was.

Then, as Susy watched in fear-stricken horror, she walked over to a knife on the ground. Bending down she picked it up, and held it with both hands and pointed it toward her body. She suddenly pulled the knife toward her and then…

Susy shot up with a scream. Her eyes were wide open and she was in a cold sweat. Soon the initial shock wore off and she started calming down.

"It was just a dream." she whispered to herself in relief, wiping the sweat from her face.

After some time she completely calmed down and then remembered her plans for that night. Susy looked at her watch and saw that it was about midnight. Thinking over it she decided that it late enough to risk seeing if Marik was asleep.

Susy grabbed the permanent markers and a camera and went to the door. The quickly-picked door opened and she peeked her head out of the room. There was no sign of anyone anywhere. She determined it safe and opened the door the rest of the way and stepped into the hallway, quietly closing the door behind her.

Susy focused on remembering the way to Marik's room. She soon remembered and starting walking. Taking a few turns she hoped she was going the right way. Right when she was starting to doubt she wasn't utterly lost , she came across exactly what she was looking for.

In front of her was a familiar big lavender door at which she smiled. Susy shifted to the door and put her ear to it then listened…she didn't hear anything. She took a deep breath and cracked open the door, looking inside. Joy coursed through her as she spotted her asleep-in-bed target: Marik.

Susy was about to go in but then thought to make sure that he wasn't a light sleeper. Bending down she picked up a pebble and threw the object into the room, causing a echoing ping. She looked back at Marik and smiled when she saw that he hadn't even stirred.

Now confident that it was safe, she entered the room. Taking in her surroundings she made her way to Marik. She tip-toed to his bed and saw that he was laying on his back with the covers pulled up to his neck.

Suddenly it hit Susy how…peaceful he looked.

'Wow, when he's asleep, he doesn't look like he could harm a fly…let alone be so mean.' she thought to herself. 'Maybe I shouldn't do this after all…what am I saying!? This is the guy that humiliated me in front of everyone here…twice! He deserves this!' Not wanting to risk talking herself out of this, she set to work.

Susy took out a black marker and very carefully, drew a mustache, three-lined beard, and a circle around his right eye with a line leading back to his ear immitating a monocle. She then took out the pink marker and drew two huge flowers on his cheeks and colored in the petals pink and the centers green. Then took out the red marker and colored in around his lips so they looked huge. After that she took out the colors of the rainbow and wrote SUCKER-MONKEY on his forehead with the letters the color sequence of the rainbow. She then whipped out the black out again and wrote insults like jackass, jerk, idiot, loser, etc… in little letters on the rest of his forehead and face.

Finished she stood back and admired her work. Getting the camera she snapped quite a few pictures. After she was content with the pictures she made sure she had all her markers and quietly left the room.

Susy ran back to her room and went in then jumped onto the bed. She took out the camera and started looking over the pictures, proud of herself.

'I know there is a very good chance I could get sent to the shadow realm for this, but if I play my cards right I should be fine.' she thought.

Susy turned off the camera and grabbed her purse. She took out the memory card and replaced everything else in the purse. The purse was then hid under the bed and the memory card under the mattress. She knew that there was a chance that Marik would have his servants search the room for the markers, and if they did that they would find the camera. In that case they would almost certainly check the camera for pictures, but if the memory card wasn't in there then neither would the pictures. Then they would probably leave the camera, thus leaving her the pictures.

Getting under the covers she laid down. She knew that she was going to be in for it in the morning, but for her it is going to be completely worth it. Having already planned what she would do in almost any senario, she wasn't really worried.

Susy smiled and looked at the ceiling. Even though she had taken that long nap she felt exhausted. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

~Time Lapse~

"Wake up, WAKE UP!" shouted Steve, shaking Susy. Her eyes slowly opened with a grunt as she sat up.

"Ok, ok, I'm up! Now what is it!?" she shouted back, clearly grumpy from her rude awakening.

"The master wants to see you." said another servant next to Steve, who had just entered the room.

"Well you can tell your master that I am sleeping!" she shouted then laid back down and pulled the blankets back over her. Steve yanked the blankets off the bed and pulled her to her feet.

"The master demands to see you NOW!"

"Well I won't go!"

"You will go like it or not." he and the other servant grabbed her arms and carried her out of the room then started walking towards Marik's room.

"Hey, let me go!" Susy yelled while kicking wildly, trying to get out of their grip. They just ignored her and carried her to Marik's room, where they then carried her in and let her down. She saw Marik with his back facing them.

"Good job servants, you may leave now." he ordered.

"Yes master Marik." they said in unison, then left, leaving just her and Marik. Susy decided to act clueless for as long as she could.

"Now what was so important that you had to have two servants drag me out of bed and carry me here?!" she retorted in a still grumpy voice.

"Oh I think you know exactly why you're here."

"I honestly don't know!"

"It's no use acting dumb, I already know you're the one who did this!" he shouted, turning around, showing the evidence of her prank.

After some good thought she decided to give up the dumb act…mostly due to the fact she wouldn't be able to keep a straight face if she tried to act dumb.

"Ok, you caught me, I did it all." she said raising her hands up and smirking.

Marik suddenly rushed her and pinned her up against the wall, holding the millennium rod right under her chin.

"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't send your mind to the shadow realm!" he growled in a serious voice.

Normally, being in this situation would terrify Susy, but right now she had the upper hand.

"Because if you do, you'll be stuck with that crap on your face for at least a month!" she smiled smugly.

Marik gave her a slightly confused look.

"What do you mean by that?"

"What I mean is that I know a special mixture that gets permanent marker off with ease. And if you were to send me to the shadow realm, then you would have to wait for it to wear off, now wouldn't you?" she mocked, smirking.

He thought for a moment then backed away.

"If what you say is true then I'll spare you…so prove that it's true and get this stuff off!" he demanded.

Susy smirked and walked up to him.

"Don't worry I will. Now I am going to need the supplies for the mixture, so call in one of the servants." she instructed.

"Very well," a servant came in, "tell him what you need."

"Ok, I need a bucket of water, rag, stirring spoon, nail polish remover, baking powder, soap, sugar, cleaning alcohol, germ-x, and vegetable oil."

The servant nodded and brought back the requested items, then left.

She quickly put all the items in the bucket of water and stirred them. After a couple minutes of stirring and weird looks from Marik she finished. She got up and pulled out a nearby chair.

"Ok, now sit." she said pointing to the chair, happy to be ordering him for a change. Marik did as told and sat down in the chair. Susy then held out her hand. "Now give me the millennium rod. I don't want you threatening me the whole time, and don't worry, I'm just putting it on the bedside table." After some careful thought he reluctantly gave her the millennium rod. She did as promised and placed it on the said table.

She walked over to the bucket and rag and brought them over to Marik. After wetting the rag she held it.

"Now this may hurt but it will be over quickly." she warned then started scrubbing Marik's face.

Just as predicted the marker was coming off with ease. She continued to scrub the marker off, using a little more pressure than necessary. The whole time Marik didn't say a word, but he was using quite a colorful vocabulary in his mind.

After some time she finished and put the rag in the bucket.

"All done. There isn't a trace of marker on you."

"Finally." Marik groaned then stood up and walked into the bathroom to check his face.

While Marik was in the bathroom Susy moved the bucket next to the door. She was about to go check on the poor guy when she was once again rushed by him, being backed against the wall.

"What is it this time!?" she barked at him.

"While I do appriciate the clean up, that still doesn't change the fact that you were the one who did all the doodling in the first place," he smirked, giving her some space, "I hope you're ready for the punishment." Marik grabbed down where his Millenium Rod would usually be, but all he grabbed was air. Glancing over at his side-table he remembered having to remove it.

"Come on Marik, we both know that you are having too much fun with me to just send me to the Shadow Realm." Her voice confident yet still a little uneasy.

"Who said anything about the Shadow Realm?" he toyed as he closed some of the distance between them. Just as before Susy backed up as far as she could and could feel the butterflys in her stomach. Liking the response he was getting, Marik braced one hand against the wall and leaned in. Susy was torn between running away and pouncing on him, so all she could do was squrim under the closeness. Marik was starting to bring his hand up to her face and accidently brushed against her stomach, causing a giggle from Susy and a grin from him.

"Well now, was that what I thought it was?" he teased, stroking her side. Tensing up Susy refused to laugh, wishing she could move.

"I don't know what you're talking a-about." She squeaked out, trying not to panic.

"Oh really now? Then you wouldn't mind if I did…this?" he squeezed her side and Susy jumped and let out a laugh, cursing herself afterwards for doing so.

"Alright, yes I'm ticklish. Now can I please go?" she pleaded, anxious to get away.

"Why should I? You're punishment's just begun." With speed Marik quickly started tickling her sides, making Susy burst with laughter.

"No, stop!" she laughed out, trying to get away. Taking hold of his arms she tried pulling them away but they don't even budge.

"Hmm, let me think about it…no!" He snorted, enjoying his revenge as he increased the torture and moved to her ribs. This made Susy cry out more and with a sudden burst of energy she knocked him down, bringing herself down with him. Scrambling to get a hold on him, she straddled him while catching her breath.

"You..are..truly…evil." she gasped out.

"Thanks, I try my best. Now get off of me!" he demanded as he tried to get out. Realizing the advantage she had, Susy smiled and leaned forward.

"Now why should I do that my little monkey?" she chimed, poking him in his exposed stomach. To her surprise, Marik gasped and tensed up, just as she had. He started to struggle even more to get out, knowing what was coming next.

"Wow, well I would have never thought. Is the little monkey ticklish?" she mocked, stroking his sides as he had her.

"No, I'm not." He insisted, trying to hold in the laughter.

"Really? Let's see about that." With a big smile she started tickling his sides, making him burst out with laughter.

"No! I command you to stop!" he cried.

"Hmm, let me think about it…no!" she said copying exactly what he had said. Eventually he started tickling her back and was able to pull away. Refusing to let him win, she pushed him onto the bed and started the torture again, enjoying every last bit of it. This proved to be a mistake though when Marik was able to grab the Millenium Rod from the bedside table.

"Stop!" he shouted, face completely red. Susy stopped right away, realizing the situation. She had just discovered a weakness of his, exploited it, and was now at the mercy of the Millenium Rod.

"Ok, I think that is enough as well. I will just be going then." She rushed then made a break for the door, only to discover it was locked.

"I don't think so. You think you can make a fool out of me twice in one day and get away with it?" he questioned, standing up.

"Umm…yes?" she replied, thinking she was doomed.

"Well then…so be it." He stood down.

"Wait…what?" she questioned, confused.

"You were right, I do like you…you're a fun pet. You make things interesting around here. I get to have my fun with you, then watch your feeble attempts at getting me back. This is a game that I am beginning to enjoy, so I will let you go." Marik explained with a grin, then the door unlocked and Steve was waiting for Susy.

"Alright Marik, I see how this is going. I accept your challenge and I shall enjoy every last minute of this," she smiled then started walking out the door then stopped, "but don't be mistaken Marik. This is no game…this is war."

Alright...I have no excuse. I confess to having given up on this story and I am sorry. I had been dragged out of my Yugioh world, but now I've come back. I honestly had given up all hope on this story. I mean the grammer was horrible (I was only in early 7th grade when I started) but now a year later, with improved grammer and a improved self, I am ready to go on. I hope anyone that still enjoys this story is happy with this. I will get Lizy and Bakura into this, that is next chapter. I didn't do it now because I wanted to get something up. Like I said, I am sorry and I hope that this was ok. Well, I guess that's it so REARRANGE HIS SOCK DRAWER...wait, wrong catchphrase, PEACE OUT!
