To blame or not to blame

Lame chapter name I know but I suck at names so please forgive me. I got some good reviews for the first chapter and so I was inspired to write the second chapter. Please enjoy.

Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh and its likely I never will.

Ryou was currently wandering around the shadowy room trying to find an exit that might be hidden from him. He had found the outfit he had been looking for but they couldn't be worn, they had been torn to shreds and wouldn't be able to cover anything if he even tried to wear the shredded.

Bakura and Akefia had been snickering like little kids that had gotten away with a prank. They had decided to tare up the old clothes in the off chance that he actually wanted to wear those rags. As much as they'd love to see him changing again they didn't want any property of theirs wearing those filthy rags. Akefia was drooling at the memory of how soft the boy's skin had been when he had been changing the small boy. Bakura was drooling at the memory of Akefia changing said boy down to his underwear though in some corner of his mind he wondered why he wasn't jealous of the small boy.

"Geez who lives here the pharaoh?" Ryou was getting exasperated; all he had found since he got here was treasure. He was beginning to think that he was in pit that people threw gold into and he just happened to fall in, though that didn't explain the changed outfit so the idea was dismissed.

"No, but close enough we are kings." A silky voice came from the shadows.

"Yeah the kings of thieves." Another voice that was slightly gruffer said. Ryou, who had been relieved to hear people talking, froze.

"Thief kings. Like the famous ones that have been stealing from the tombs of pharaoh's recently?"

In the shadows Akefia and Bakura smirked. "Why yes we are. Glad to hear that our reputations precede us." Ryou felt conflicting emotions he was scared because of the fact that he knew both men were very dangerous, at the same time he felt a slight resentment to them because they where the reason his village had chased him out.

"Of course I've heard of you, my village thought I was the one stealing from the tombs because of my white hair and pale skin." Ryou glared at the floor thinking about the stupid village he had called home for so long.

"Well the people couldn't have been very smart if they thought that a sweet little thing like you would steal anything." Ryou's cheeks turned red as he gazed into the shadows trying to see the two men hidden there.

"Well their worries are a little sensible because my father was a thief" He smiled to himself as he thought about the stories his father used to tell him when he was younger.

"I see what was he called?" Akefia was curious about this young boy though he wasn't sure why. The only other person he had found interesting was Bakura and well we all now what kind of relationship that had turned into. (AN. The yummy kind ;) )

From strangers to partners in crime to friends to . . . well something a little more.

"I'm not sure what people called him in fact I don't think anyone ever linked all of the crimes together." Ryou looked around the room thoughtfully. "I have no money and I don't know how I got here, is there anyway you could take me to a nearby village?"

Bakura chuckled under his breath "I'm afraid that we can't be sure that you won't come back with guard so from today on you're our property."

Ryou felt anger fill his heart "And what gives you the right to keep me here?" Ryou yelled into the shadows.

"We are thieves, we will claim whatever and whoever we wont." Was the casual answer that he received from Akefia. Like that was a normal answer to such a question. Ryou however didn't like this answer and started to do something that anyone who knew him better wouldn't think he was capable of doing. He started to throw things into the direction that the voices spoke from.

"My whole life I made an honest living in my village as a doctor. I dealt with winy children and irritating women, and men who wouldn't swallow their pried and get over themselves so I could help them. And suddenly you guys start making trouble and I get chased out of my village. Now not only do I have no where to go but you won't even let me have the chance to rebuild my honest life in some small village." By now Ryou was crying and mumbling to himself about how unfair all of this was. Once they were sure Ryou was over his temper tantrum Akefia and Bakura approached the small shaking boy.

Ryou didn't care anymore and aloud himself to be picked up and carried to the bed. He didn't protest when he was set down and even crawled to the middle of the bed to make room for the other 2. He fell asleep in when he felt the bed shift when the other 2 climbed in.

Bakura and Akefia watched the small boy as he slept. They hadn't expected the short rampage that the boy had gone on and were still surprised that he had done it. Bakura looked at his arm that had been hit by a stray crown that had only just missed Akefia's head. It would definitely bruise, the fact that a small boy like that could throw that hard was scary. It made him wonder if the boy would be useful to them in a fight. And then there was the fact that he was a doctor. How interesting. Well not the time to think about it now, it was time for sleep.

Akefia watched his lover drift off after inspecting his arm. The boy was good to have hit them but he would have to take precautions to make sure that the boy wouldn't escape or kill them. It would be a race then. Could the boy get away before he fell in love with them? Akefia chuckled thinking that he and Bakura had a head start in this race. With that peaceful thought he wrapped his arms around the two younger males and drifted off.

So that was the second chapter. I hope you liked it and thank you for reading my story. Oh and thank you to those who reviewed and favorited my first story it makes me feel really happy. Please rate and review.
