Not a very long chapter. Well, I mean I guess it would be for some, but not for me. Anyways, I didn't want to do too much, but I do hope y'all enjoy.

Endlessly:

I could love you endlessly, I could fall in love with you and we could keep a miracle alive. Every time I look in your eyes, I get lost inside of your soul. What are you doing to me? Don't you know that I hate you? Don't you want my blood on your hands? Don't you want me to scream? Don't you realize that it's too late to bring me back life? I'm already further than death. I'm drowning in my desire for you and my need to kill you. I want my hands covered in your blood, I want your skin underneath my fingertips I want you to reach out and touch me, I want you to burn me alive with your beautiful eyes. I want to hear your voice when I go to bed at night, I want to lie next to you and watch the world go by. I want to end you for good, I want to make you suffer, I want to see the look in your eyes when you look up at me when I hold the knife above your heart. I want you to know that any claims of hope you had of us is nothing but fantasy we'll never have. I want you to be the one that kills me, I want my blood on your hands.. I want you to end me I want to feel your passion. I want to feel your soul wrapping around mine. I want to know if you feel this too. I want to know if I can kill you now. I want to feel you underneath me I want to feel something besides this loneliness I feel inside. I want to bring the demon out of you.

I want to know if it hurts when I cut you up inside. I want to know if you really hate me or if I really hate you. I want to make me scream, I want to feel the power within me grow. I want you to knock me out, I want you to defeat me. I want something so much more from you than I could ever get. I want you to bleed, I want you to scream. I need you to know you're driving me crazy. I need you to know my soul burns passionately for you every time you give me that look I think I'm going to lose my mind. I want you dead, I want your soul to scream, to earn itself to me. I need you to know this isn't a game anymore. And what would you think if I told you that loved you this whole time? What would you say if I told you I never wanted to hate you, that I never loved you at all? What if I was playing with your mind?

What if I was lying right now? What if I told it was too personal to tell you how I felt about you? What if I told you that everything you've done to me was nothing more than just a wicked fantasies you dreamt of? What if I can't take it back? What if I don't want to? What if everything I said wasn't a lie? What if I tried to bring you back? What if I really did love you? Would you love me back, even though you think of me as a fool? Am I fool to fall in love with you? What if I told you that loving you is so impossible, it's not reality. I couldn't take it anymore. You burn me alive, I'd give myself to you if I could.

Disclaimer: I do not own Yugioh. If I did, then Yugioh would have ended with Bakura and Yami admitting their undying love for one another and Seto would have pulled Joey into a kiss to shut him up because Puppy and Darkshipping rock!

Warnings: My usual, y'all know what that means, but for those of you who happen to be new to my awesomeness, it means there's lemony goodness!

Summary:

Moments away from destroying Zorc, Yami hesitates, asking Horakhty if she can set Bakura free. She agrees, telling Yami that in order for him to pass into the afterlife, he must break his enemy of the darkness, and he only as a year to do so.

Chapter Thirty-three: Pierced

[Marik's POV]:

After I had gotten the information I needed from Joey's and Serenity's parents, I went to KaibaCorp and gave Kaiba the video clip. We watched the duel for a little bit. Joey and Serenity had won. I knew they would. Joey isn't known as the third best duelist in the world for nothing. Rex and Weevil were never anything to brag about. An ant could beat them in a duel blindfolded and handcuffed. We-Mokuba, Bakura, and I-waited for the perfect opportunity to strike and it worked perfectly for now, the Wheeler parents are going down in a big way.

"What part of 'I like cock' are you two fools not getting?" Bakura snaps.

I smirk at his statement. Unlike a lot of people, Bakura and I have no shame in who we are. I never understood why people were so afraid of their sexuality. If you like cock you like cock. If you like pussy, you like pussy. Who the hell cares? Is it hurting them that you like something? No! That's like if someone liked doughnuts and I got mad at them because they were fat! I can't get fat from being around them and they can't turn gay from being around me! I swear! And if they do turn gay, they were gay in the first place because we just don't turn gay.

Sure, I'll admit when I found out I was gay, it freaked me out. But then I realized that that's just who I am. I flaunt my gayness and I know I look good. Ishizu and Odion know I'm gay and they accept me. Hell, I think Ishizu is too.

"Well you can like whatever you want," Ms. Wheeler spits. "But my children won't be faggots and they sure as hell won't be hanging out with any of you."

"You can't do dat!" Joey exclaims.

"Silence, Joey." Ms. Wheeler snaps. "We're leaving right this second!"

"Serenity and Joey aren't going anywhere." Kaiba snarls. "The two of you are."

We look over to see Kaiba standing there with three police officers. I don't recognize either of them.

"V-Valon?" Joey squeaks.

The guy with the spiky looking brown hair smirks.

"Well Wheeler, who woulda thought it'd be me gettin' you out of a jam instead of the other way around?"

"Raphael, when did you join the police force?" Yami asks.

"A few weeks after you saved me," Raphael replies.

"Are you two ready to go downtown to the station?" the other man asks.

"You can't do this!" Ms. Wheeler shouts. "Mr. Kaiba he-he's keeping my daughter here when I didn't give her permission and-"

"Mr. Kaiba has not broken any law." Raphael says. "The two of you have."

"Ya have no proof!" Mr. Wheeler hisses.

"Allister, replay the tape, mate." Valon says. Ooo! An Australian! I do love me some foreigners! I'll have to talk to this guy! He looks totally kick ass!

Allister plays the tape. The recording repeats over and over again.

'I'm going to get Weevil and Rex to duel our kids. They're going to convince Joey that Kaiba is losing profit. They'll have to sign a contract for them to see the work...knowing Joey he won't read the shit...that's where we'll get him."

"Then dat Kaiba freak can get arrested for keeping our daughter without our permission and everything will be set…."

Allister clicks the tape off. "That's all I needed to hear." Raphael says. "Allister, Valon arrest them."

Mr. and Ms. Wheeler back up. Their kids are dumbfounded unable to speak or move.

"Ya can't do dis!" Mr. Wheeler exclaims. "If ya gonna arrest us, then arrest dat Kaiba! Ya can't take a minor without permission! It's the law!"

"True," Allister says. "But since I owe Kaiba here, we've already worked that out."

"Why you-"

"Dad, Ma." Joey says suddenly.

We all turn to the boy.

XXXXXXX

[Joey's POV]:

I can't get the words of the recording I keep hearing out of my mind. I can't believe my parents would sink dis low! Do they truly hate me dis much because I like guys? I really thought dat when Ma told Serenity dat she could stay dat she finally accepted my sexuality. But dat was a lie! It was only a trick to let our guards down. I should have listened to Seto. I shouldn't have believed Ma's words. I just wanted to believe her. I'm so sick of not being able to be a real family...leasts I have my sis wit me.

When Seto came in with Raphael, Valon and Allister I was shocked! I thought we'd neva see those guys again! And they're all working for the police! Ma and Dad tried to get out of getting arrested, but the evidence is pointing against them and they haven't even mentioned about Dad abusing me. I don't want to lose them. I want them in my life. I know they'll go to jail, but I have to get this off my chest.

"Dad, Ma," I say.

Everyone turns towards me. Allister and Valon already have my parents in handcuffs.

"Both of y'all hurt me. I can't grasp dis. I know y'all are against me being bi, but did ya have to do dis? Ya didn't have to get a divorce to keep me from being who I am. Nothin' ya say or do will change my mind. I love Seto with all my heart-"

"Joey you can't love another man." Ma says.

"Let him speak Mom!" Serenity shouts.

"I know it's wrong in y'all's eyes, but I can't help how I feel. Do ya honestly think I want to be in love with Seto? I mean hell, we were enemies for years! He constantly harassed me and made fun of , I knew he wasn't doin' it to me mean. Seto is a great person. He cares a lot even if he doesn't know how to show it. I love him Ma, Dad. I truly love him. I'm not makin dis up, it's not for a show. I am literally in love with him. It's not about his money either. I just want to be with him." I say.

"Joey we are just trying to prevent you from making a mistake." Ma says.

"What mistake?" Serenity asks. "How can Joey's happiness be a mistake, doesn't that mean anything to you?"

"You know that it does, Serenity." Ma says.

"Then why can't ya accept it? Why can't y'all be happy for me?" I ask.

"Joey you know that two men and two women cannot have babies together." Ma says.

"I know, but there's always adoption and-"

"Son, don't you want to know how it feels to have ya own baby?" Dad asks. "If ya find ya a nice lady to settle down wit and get a real job then ya'll experience dat. Ya'll hold the baby in ya arms and they're yours from your genes!"

"But we wouldn't be a true family," I say. I turn around. I hate dis. I hate how everyone's starin' at me. I hate how personal dis has gotten. Serenity, who's standing beside of me, squeezes my hand. I take a deep breath composing myself before turning back around to face my parents. "It's all I've ever wanted. Dat's why I worked so hard in Duelist Kingdom to get the money for Serenity's eye operation. I wanted to be able to see her again...all of y'all. I felt so alone and dat's why I went into bullying and gangs.

"I used to blame myself for how ya treated me Dad. I didn't understand why ya came home all the time drunk and beat me up. I thought I caused ya to drink. But I know dat wasn't the case at all. When I found Yuge, he changed my life. And when I met, Seto, I felt somethin' I've neva felt before. I know it's weird to y'all, and I know y'all will never accept it, but I don't want any bad feelings to be between us. I just want us to be a family again…."

Silence fills the air. There's tension that cuts air suffocating us from the inside out. No one knew of my homelife, except Seto and Mokuba. How will the others feel about me? Will they feel sorry for me? Will they ask questions or not in fear of upsetting me.

"Son, we just want the best for ya," Dad says.

"Then let me be with Seto!" I exclaim.

"Joey you can't-"

"Joey," Serenity says squeezing my hand tighter. "Just stop."

"But-" I protest turning to my sister. She just shakes her head.

"Alright, we need to get the two of you to the station," Raphael says.

I can't believe dis is happenin' I can't have dis happening…

"Please don't take them away," I beg.

Allister and Valon stop.

"What?" Allister asks.

"You can't be serious mate, you don't want them to go?" Valon asks.

"No, I don't." I say.

"Joey, I don't want them to go either, but they don't…." Serenity says looking away.

"Joey, they broke the law," Raphael says. "I have no choice."

I sigh. "I know...I just...isn't there another way to do dis?"

Raphael, Valon, and Allister exchange glances. Then they turn to my parents.

"I believe we can arrange something," Allister smirks.

XXXXXXXX

[Serenity's POV]:

So many emotions go through me as I listen to my brother plead his case about how deeply in love he is with the CEO of KaibaCorp and talks about how much pain our parents have put him through. I can't believe Mom would sink this low to get my brother 'de-gayed'. I wished she'd just accept it. I know it's hard to change how you think, but sometimes you need to suck it up and deal with it. Mom and Dad certainly need to do just that.

I can't take it anymore. I can't stand here and listen to Joey go on and on about this when Mom and Dad won't listen. I know our friends want to say something, but are either too scared to or are being respectful. I'm honestly surprised Marik and Bakura hasn't said anything, but maybe they figure this is a serious situation.

"Joey," I say squeezing his hand tighter. "Just stop."

"But-" he protests turning towards me. I shake my head.

"Alright, we need to get the two of you to the station," Raphael says.

"Please don't take them away," Joey begs

Allister and Valon stop.

"What?" Allister asks.

"You can't be serious mate, you don't want them to go?" Valon asks.

"No, I don't." he says.

"Joey, I don't want them to go either, but they don't…." I say looking away.

"Joey, they broke the law," Raphael says. "I have no choice."

Joey sighs. "I know...I just...isn't there another way to do dis?"

Raphael, Valon, and Allister exchange glances. Then they turn to my parents.

"I believe we can arrange something," Allister smirks.

"What do you have in mind?" I ask.

"It's not what we have in mind, little lady. It's what you and Joey here have in mind." Valon says giving me a wink.

"Umm…" Joey says nervously.

"Well…" I say looking down.

How are we supposed to decide this? I don't want my parents to get punished, but at the same time I know they need to be. What they did was wrong and unfair. But still, they're my Mom and Dad. It was so much easier having them go to jail because that wasn't really up to me, but this is. It's up to Joey and me and it's a big decision to make. I mean who knows if it'll work or not.

"Why don't you just get them to go to counseling and rehab?" Bakura scoffs. "I mean it's obvious as day that these two fools need some serious help."

"Oh and like ya one to talk!" Dad hisses. "You're the most deranged one here!"

"If Joey and Serenity weren't my friends I'd slit your throat right now." Bakura spits.

"Bakura," Yami says grabbing Bakura's hand. "Calm down. It's not worth it."

I look over at Joey then to my parents and back. Bakura does have a good point. My parents do need counseling. I think I know what to do. I just hope Joey'll be okay with it.

"Dad," I say looking at him. "I want you to go to rehab. And Mom," I say turning towards her. 'I want you to go to counseling."

"We don't' need counseling, Serenity." Mom says.

"It's either you go to counseling or you go to jail. Pick the one you want, Ms. Wheeler." Raphael says.

"And if I go through this counseling then what?" Mom asks.

"If you go through the counseling and get better then we'll drop the charges, if that's okay with your children." Allister says.

"Sure," Joey says.

"Of course," I say.

"My husband can get both of you into the right place," Mai says. "It'll be out of the country though…"

"Now just hold on a minute! I dont' have the money to-"

"I'll pay for it," Mai says. She turns towards my brother. "It's the least I can do after your son saved my life."

XXXXXXXXXX

[A month ]:

[Seto's POV]:

It's been a month since Mr. and Ms. Wheeler were taken down. Mai's husband, Richard, put them both in counseling and Mr. Wheeler in rehab. I wanted to send their sorry asses to jail, but Joey and Serenity wanted this, and I have to obey their wishes. I just hope it doesn't come back to haunt them.

Joey and I are closer than ever now since we've taken care of his parents. He's safe and sound watching TV while I'm reading a book. Serenity and Mokuba are elsewhere in the house. Serenity brings the best out in my brother. I am grateful for that.

"Whatcha reading, Seto?" Joey asks moving closer to me, peering over my arm.

"A book," I reply not looking up at him.

"Well I got that silly," Joey snorts. "I mean what's it about?"

"Vampires," I reply.

"You like that stuff?" Joey asks.

"Sure do," I reply flipping the page.

We sit in silence for a long time.

"Thank you," Joey says almost inaudibly.

"Hmm," I grunt.

"I mean it, Seto. You, Mai, and Marik. All of y'all helped Serenity and me. I could have lost ya if it wasn't for you guys."

I close the book, placing it on the dresser beside my bed, turning to face my lover.

"How many times are you going to thank me for that, Joey?" I ask. "I've already told you it's fine. You don't owe me anything. As long as you're safe and happy, it's alright."

"And what about you?" Joey asks.

"Me?" I arch a brow.

"Yes, are you okay?" he asks.

I know what he's referring to. Joey might have started his journey to healing, but I haven't. I've told Joey what happened, but since I've been dealing with his issues, I haven't had much time to talk about it. Which is fine with me because I had talking about my feelings. It makes me feel weak and pathetic. I turn away from my lover. Joey wraps his arm around my waist, lying his head on my arm.

"Why ya still closed off after all dis time we've been together, Seto?" he asks, hurt.

I don't reply, I just stare at the TV. I hate making him feel bad. I want to open up, it's just hard. I'm more worried about Joey's happiness than my own. Mokuba says i need to trust Joey, to open up to him. I have. I've told him about my past. What more do I need to do?

We've been together for nearly eight months. Joey brings something out in me I've never knew existed within me.

It terrifies me because he can do such a thing to me. I was always taught that showing my emotions was weakness. That helping others was weakness because they'll just use you in the end, but when I helped Joey and his sister, I didn't feel weaker I felt better. I felt better knowing that my lover was safe from harm.

Joey moves so he's inches from my face. Those eyes of his do wonders to me. They're enchanting. I hate how he makes me feel, yet I love it all at the same time. He presses his lips to me and I all but melt. I kiss him back, pulling him into my lap. It's been so long since we've made love. We just haven't had the time.

Joey pulls us apart and latches his teeth on my throat, sinking his teeth into my flesh. I choke back a moan when he grinds his hips into mine. I pull him towards my lips and take him in a heated kiss. Passion soars within me as our lips mould together so perfectly. When we need to breathe, we pull apart, panting.

Time stands still as we stare into each other's eyes. My heart pounds, ready to explode out of me and capture him. I reach up and brush his hair back. Joey smiles at me as I run my hand down his face. I want to trust him. And I do. I want this relationship of ours to be equal, but it's not. Joey has never once taken me. It was never questioned.

Mokuba once told me the only way for me to truly heal and accept what happened to me is to let Joey take me. He said it will help me because it will show me that it's not a weakness to let go. I wished I could believe him. I want to, but it's hard. How can lying on my back being fucked into oblivion heal me? How can it not be weakness? As I continue to stare into my lover's eyes, I see so much more in him than anyone else does.

"Seto?" Joey asks worryingly.

I sit up slightly, Joey takes this as an indication to get off of me and complies. He sits beside of me, waiting for me to answer him. I don't know how to do this without sounding like a fool.

"I'm sorry," I whisper.

"Eh?" Joey asks cocking his head to the side. "What for?"

"You know what for, Joey." I sigh rubbing my eyes with my fingers.

We look at each other. He knows exactly what I'm talking about. He's not as stupid as he appears to be.

"Seto," Joey says taking my hand. "I already told ya we don't hafta do dat."

"Yes we do," I say jerking my hand out of his.

"Seto-"

"It's not fair to you. You've opened up to me. You trust me enough to let me take you. To be honest with you, I'm surprised you even let me take you. You're not one to just lie there and-"

"Being taken doesn't mean you are weak, Seto." Joey says. "It just means you trust ya lover enough to let ya defenses down. I mean, I'll be honest I do want to take ya. I've been wanting to since we've met, but I didn't want to push ya. The fact I'm even with ya makes me happy. I don't want ya to do something ya don't want to do."

"It's not the fact that I don't want you to it's…" I trail off looking away.

"I know," Joey says touching my face, forcing me to look at him. "And I don't wanna rush ya."

"It's something I need to do, Joey." I say. "It's something I want to do."

"Are ya sure?" he asks.

I turn my body fully to him, cupping his face within my palms. I press our lips together. Joey responses immediately. He pushes me down on the bed. We break the kiss. Joey takes his shirt off throwing it across the room. He motions for me to sit up and I comply, allowing him to take my shirt off as well. He attacks my mouth with his. I love the fights for dominance we have. Joey grinds his hips into mine, coaxing an erection out of both of us. I run my nails down his back in response. Joey breaks the kiss, trailing his kisses down my body. When he reaches the hem of my pants, he licks back up my body, teasing me.

This seems to go on forever. He's driving me insane. All of this licking, sucking and biting he's doing. I think he wants me to beg for him. Like hell I'll do that. He should know me better than that. Finally, he removes the rest of our clothing. He stares at me for a moment before returning to my lips. He pulls away brushing the sides of my face.

"Are ya sure you wanna do dis?" he asks.

I nod. He leans over me reaching for the bottle of lube in the top drawer of the dresser. Fear shoots through me as he pops the top.

"Just relax, Seto." Joey says. "I ain't gonna hurt ya."

"I know," I say.

He smiles, squirting the lube on his fingers. He presses two of his fingers in my entrance. I moan painfully. Joey takes my cock in his mouth, sucking hard. A surge of pleasure erupts throughout my body. I grip the sheets tightly. Joey adds another finger inside me, brushing my prostate. I moan, bucking my hips. Joey continues to suck and stretch me. He's driving me crazy.

Finally, what seems like hours later, he removes his fingers. He looks down at me. I pant heavily. He crawls on top of me, kissing me.

"Are ya sure ya wanna do dis, Seto?" he asks as we break the kiss.

"I'm sure, Joey." I say.

My heart races a mile a minute as I watch him position himself between my knees. He slides into me slowly. Pain bursts inside me of me, eating me alive. I feel tears streaming down my face.

"Are ya alright, Seto?" Joey asks wiping my tears away.

"I'm fine," I say trying to keep my voice steady. I sound like a weak fool right now. I hate that.

"I love you," Joey says leaning down to kiss me. I kiss him back. Passion ignites in us once again. He breaks the kiss, pulling out of me before thrusting back in slowly. I gasp. The pain is lessening and being replaced with overwhelming pleasure.

Joey sits up, taking my cock in his hand stroking me as he trusts in and out of me. I moan, bucking my hips, begging him to go deeper. Joey groans feeling me tighten around him. He takes me to his lips again, exploring the insides of my mouth. He breaks us apart, sinking his teeth into the base of my throat. I rake my nails along his back. Joey sits back up. He thrusts into me hard and deep.

"Fuck!"

Joey chuckles breathlessly, continuing to thrust into me hard and fast. I pull him down for a kiss. After a while, we break apart. I wrap my legs around his waist, causing him to go deeper within me.

He sits up, taking my erection in his hand, stroking me in time with his thrusts. He nails my prostate with incredible accuracy. Joey groans, thrusting into me faster.

We scream each other's names as our orgasms wash over us. The feeling of him filling me is like none I've ever felt. It's too incredible to explain, this feeling I have. Joey falls on top of me, panting heavily. I run my fingers through his hair. Our bodies are covered in sweat and cum.

"Are ya okay, Seto?" Joey asks sitting up slightly to look at me.

I pull him down for a kiss.

"Thank you," I say as we break apart.

Joey smiles. "I love you."

"I love you too." I say.

Joey pulls out of me, pulling me towards him. He immediately falls asleep. I laugh to myself watching him sleep. I snuggle up to his chest. I feel closer than ever to him now.

XXXXXXXXXX

[Bakura's POV]:

'Are you ready for the duel, Touzoku?' Zorc asks as he goes through my deck.

'Why can't you just leave them alone?' I spit.

'Because it's funny to see you mad.' he replies.

Of course it is. Zorc has never cared anything about me. I was a fool to have worshiped him the way I did. I gave up everything to make him happy, to make him proud of me. But it was all in vain, he never gave a damn about me. He was going to destroy me if we had won. I'm grateful we hadn't.

'If we would have won, you and I would be kings of the universe and you would be my fair wife.' Zorc says.

'I dont want to be your fucking wife, Zorc!' I shout.

'That's because you're in love with the Pharaoh, but don't worry my dear he'll be gone soon so we can be together.' Zorc chuckles.

I scowl.

'Now then, let's get to the arena, the Pharaoh is waiting for us.' Zorc says.

I walk down the stairs. Everyone's sitting around.

"It's about time ya showed up, Kura." Joey says.

I don't say anything. We all get in Kaiba's limo and head off to Kaibaland. I hate that I know what's going to happen, but can't do anything about it. I hate how weak and pathetic I've gotten. We finally reach our destination. Crowds and crowds of people surround the dueling arena where Atem and I are going to duel. I feel myself smirk.

'It's this beautiful, Touzoku?' Zorc asks me as we make our way onto the platform. 'We're going to destroy your precious lover in style.'

'I'm not going to let you hurt him,'

'You'll change your mind once I destroy him.'

"Are you ready to lose, 'King of Games'?" I hear myself mock. I hate how rude Zorc makes me sound. I hate everything about him. I wished there was some way to get rid of him. Perhaps Atem can during this duel.

'Don't count on it fool.' Zorc hisses.

"I'm only doing this to save you," Atem says.

"And what makes you think there's something wrong?" I ask.

"I'm your lover, I think I'd know." he replies.

I feel Zorc scowl. I smile to myself.

"Let's just duel. I'm ready to kick your ass." I spit.

"Then why don't we stop playing around and begin?" Atem asks.

Cheers erupt as we shuffle our decks and draw our cards.

This is it. I'm about to duel Atem with so much on the line. He doesn't realize it either, none of them do. My lover has to win at all costs. Otherwise, no one here will survive.

XXXXXXXXXX

So the Wheeler parents are going to go through counseling and rehab. Seto was taken...and that was so damn hard to write! By gods! I hope I did that okay because...yeah. Bakura and Yami's duel is next chapter. Which means epic shit is going down. Let's see how things progress. Review lovelies! :D.
