Chapter 12

~~∞Ω∞Ω∞~~

Atemu woke the next morning, rolled over, and could not find Yugi. He saw the chain leading to the floor beside that side of the bed. Frowning he climbed out of the bed and went around to find Yugi's sleeping form on the ground, shaking from cold. Atemu quickly moved beside him and picked him up before nearly dropping him on the floor. He was freezing. Atemu quickly put him into the bed and covered him up. Feeling Yugi's forehead he found it warmer than it should be.

Atemu quickly left the room and went back to the temple itself and pulled a heap of animal skins to the chamber. He found Yugi curled up on his side, his back to the entrance and the chain lying across his neck making him shiver more. Atemu moved over beside the bed, put the animal skins on the floor, reached over Yugi's body, and removed the chain. He put the chain back in the draw before placing the animal skins on top of Yugi. He hoped it would provide more warmth for him.

Atemu moved over to the fire and pulled out a pot, filling it with water before placing it on the fire that was roaring. Atemu grabbed out a few cups and started to prepare drinks for everyone. Atemu, Akefia and Mariku had decided before taking the boys that they would meet up in the morning and would discuss a few things. He just was not sure if Yugi would be awake to discuss anything.

~~∞Ω∞Ω∞~~

Ryou shivered slightly as he woke. He had not wanted to use the animal skin last night but he had to, to get warm when it got extremely cold. He was cold but he was able to get sleep except he was not feeling very well when he woke. Ryou coughed softly trying to keep quiet but it did not work.

"Shut up! I'm trying to sleep twerp." Akefia muttered from the bed.

Ryou whimpered softly and curled up more to the wall trying to stop his coughing if it happened again. Ryou tried hard to stop coughing but it did not work, he coughed harshly causing Akefia to growl. He sat up and looked down at Ryou who huddled against the wall trying to sink into it.

"I'm sorry, I'm trying to not cough."

Akefia just growled again and climbed out of bed. Ryou shook as he walked closer and grabbed Ryou's wrist and hurled him to his feet. He unchained him and stalked around the chamber turning on lights.

"Come on we have to see the Pharaoh."

Ryou nodded shakily and followed Akefia who stalked out and grabbed Ryou's wrist tightly and dragged him along.

Malik woke the next morning to feel a body pressed up against his back and a tail wrapped around his legs still. There were arms wrapped around his chest holding him back close to the body. Malik groaned in annoyance and roughly removed the arms and tail around him and sat up. Mariku groaned in annoyance at being woken up and looked at Malik who was trying to get the chain around his wrist off. Mariku smirked and turned onto his back and pulled a key out from the bedside table.

"You after this?"

Malik turned to see him waving a key. Malik jumped out to retrieve it but failed as Mariku moved it from his reach.

"Ah ah ah you did not say please." Malik growled at him and jumped for it again. "No manners these days. Well I might just go see Atemu, Akefia and your little friends by myself."

Malik growled at him in anger. "Please." He said with a strained voice.

"Ah see that wasn't so hard." Malik said as he unlocked the chain around Malik's wrist.

Malik just grumbled to himself as the stood up and straightened out his clothes. Mariku smirked hearing Malik grumble before he got out of bed himself. Mariku slithered over to a table and picked up a comb before slithering back over to Malik. Malik just continued to glare at him as he came over. Mariku dragged him over to the bed and sat him down before positioning himself behind Malik. Malik tried to get up but a tail wrapped firmly around his waist holding him to the bed. Mariku smirked before he started to comb though Malik's hair removing the knots and straightening out his bed hair.

"Keep brushing my hair and you'll draw back a stump." Malik growled.

"Are you always this feisty?"

"When it comes to anyone kidnapping us and are ass holes, yes."

"I like it."

Malik growled and tried to spin slightly to punch Mariku in the jaw. Except Mariku caught his hand before he could and pinned his arms to his sides and wrapped his tail around them before continuing brushing Malik's hair.

"Let me go you freak. Let go!!!" Mariku's tail tightened considerably at that. "Argh!!! Let go you're hurting me."

"Call me a freak again and I'll change you to what I am without hesitation. Understand me?"

"Yes!"

Mariku loosed his grip around Malik and continued brushing his hair. Once he finished Mariku let go of Malik completely, slithered off the bed, and put the brush away. Grabbing Malik's arm he pulled him to his feet and led him out of the cavern.

~~∞Ω∞Ω∞~~

"Hey Atemu."

"Akefia."

"What are you doing?"

"He's sick."

Akefia had just arrived with Ryou to find Atemu with a wet cloth and was laying it over Yugi's forehead. Ryou gasped and ran over to Yugi and sat on the other side of the bed and checking him over.

"What did you do to him?" Ryou asked as he felt Yugi's forehead.

"Nothing. We went to sleep and when I woke he was on the ground shivering uncontrollably. He was in bed when we went to sleep last night. He must have climbed out during the night."

"Yugi!!!" Malik screamed as soon as he saw his state. "Let go of me." Malik screamed trying to get to Yugi.

"No."

Malik growled and turned, slamming his foot into Mariku's stomach causing his wrist to be released. Malik raced over to the bed and knelt next to Ryou on the bed, looking over Yugi.

Mariku, when Malik slammed his foot into his stomach, was momentarily stunned at the action. Akefia moved beside him and placed a hand on his shoulder, hoping to calm him before he did something he would possibly regret. Mariku growled and moved towards the bed. He stood right behind Malik and grabbed him and dragged him from the bed, away from Yugi.

"Hey let me go. Let go!" Malik yelled.

Mariku pulled Malik away from the bed and restrained him. Malik continued to try and struggle away from him to get back to Yugi. Mariku held him tightly to the point it started to hurt. Malik let out a cry of pain and tried to remain still but the pain made it hard to.

"Mariku." Atemu said. "Let him go."

Mariku growled and let Malik go and he fell to the floor panting in pain. Ryou jumped from the bed and ran over to his side. Ryou helped him to his feet and over to the bed and sat him down and looked to Mariku. He glared at Ryou, slithered into a corner, and stood there glaring at the trio on the bed, even though one was unconscious.
