The Seeds Of Doubt

 

Aten pulled away from the kiss, his cheeks red from blushing. His looked into Kadin's eyes and swallowed hard. Aten bit his lip nervously. Robbie had been the only one he had ever kissed romantically.

“Why did you kiss me?”

Kadin blushed. “Well, you looked upset. That's what people do when they want to comfort their friends, right?”

Aten nodded and lowered his head. “Sometimes kisses are bad, Kadin.”

The teen snickered. “Kissing is never bad. Kissing is only good.”

Aten shook his head. “Not for me.”

Kadin stood up. “Well, Aten, I was only trying to help you feel better. If you don't want me to come around, I can take a hint.”

Aten stood up. “Wait, Kadin! Don't go!”

Kadin turned around. “What?”

“Please don't go….I'm sorry.”

“No, I'm going to go!”

Aten gasped and jumped in front of Kadin. “Please don't go, Kadin. I'm sorry….”

Aten pressed his lips against Kadin. The other teen deepened the kiss and pinned Aten against the house. Kadin kissed Aten's neck and sucked on the side of it, making Aten tense.

Kadin moaned against the side of Aten's neck. Kadin felt Aten shudder against him.

“Come inside, Aten.”

Aten followed Kadin inside. Miranda and Daniel looked at the boys.

“Are you going to be okay, Aten?”

Aten noddd. “Yes….I'm really missing Robbie. Maybe I should call….maybe if I can hear his voice…I'll feel better.”

*************************

Jeanie held Cassie against her and caressed the sleeping baby's hair. Ivy and Lily huddled close to their mother and slept quietly. Mokuba and Seto watched Hayden as the angry teen pointed the pistol at them. Both brothers shifted uncomfortably as their hands were tied behind their back.

Hayden narrowed his eyes at Seto. “What are you looking at?”

“Hayden, what is it that you hope to gain from keeping us prisoner?”

Hayden grinned. “I don't hope for anything anymore. I gave up my hope years ago. Hope is nothing to me anymore.”

Mokuba winced as the rope scraped against his wrist. “Mokuba, I know it's been hard, but we can make it right.”

Hayden narrowed his eyes. “Nothing can make it right….not anymore.”

Jason and Eric entered and put a plate of food on the desk. “Here you go,” Eric said.

Hayden grinned and sat on Seto's desk. He munched hungrily at the roast beef sandwich. “Turn on the radio. Let's see what lies the media are telling the people.”

Jason turned on the radio and tuned it to the news.

[We are now eight hours into the hostage crisis in KaibaCorp. The Crusaders have not made any attempts to contact the media about their demands. The condition of the people inside the building are unknown as the Crusaders have not allowed anyone inside or near the building. A gun battle erupted between the Crusaders and police earlier, leaving seven men dead and 2 men injured.”

Hayden laughed. “Seven dead? Go us! Jason, you're getting to be a damn good shot.]

Jason crossed his arms proudly. “Sure am! I bet you I can hit Limpy's cane from two hundred feet away.”

Robbie looked up at Jason nervously as the boy aimed his gun at him. ”Jason…..no…please!”

Jason laughed. “Don't worry, Limpy. It's not time to blow your brains out yet. We'll let you know when it is time.”

Robbie shuddered. `Aten…..'

[Domino Hospital has released a statement concerning Joseph Wheeler-Kaiba.] Seto's head snapped up and his eyes widened. “Joey?!”

Hayden chewed his sandwich. “Let's see if I buried the fucker.”

Dr. Zira's voice sounded over the radio. [Joseph Wheeler-Kaiba was admitted today at 10:48 am. He had been shot in the abdomen and the bullet passed through the body..]

Hayden dropped his sandwich and jumped off the desk with a proud smile. “GO ME!”

Seto's eyes widened. “Joey!”

[After 10 hours of intense surgery, I would like to report that Joseph is in critical condition and may not survive the night. Further updates will emerge as they become available.]

Seto narrowed his eyes at Hayden, struggling to hold back his tears. “Why did you shoot him?! Hayden, he has shown you nothing but love and that is how you repay him?!”

Hayden smiled and walked up to Seto. The red-haired teen put the barrel of the gun under Seto's chin. “I enjoyed it, Mr. Kaiba. You should have seen it…..He hugged me. He actually hugged me.”

“That's because he loves you still and has been looking for you for two years. He never gave up hope that you were still out there.”

Hayden gripped the gun tightly. “How sweet…..Well, Mr. Kaiba, I shot him and left him for dead on the front steps of KaibaCorp. His body rolled down the steps. You should have seen the fountain of blood that gushed from him. I'm amazed daddy didn't bleed himself to death. I was counting on that….and I'm very upset that it didn't happen.”

Seto felt the cold barrel of the gun under his chin. “Hayden…..”

“One second is all it will take.”

Hayden pulled away from Seto and kneeled in front of Robbie. “You're next, boy.”

Robbie swallowed hard. “What did I do to you, Hayden?”

Hayden narrowed his eyes and gripped Robbie's hair and pulled back roughly. “You did nothing to save me from my uncle!”

Robbie whimpered. “Hayden, we tried to save you! We tried to run and get help, but we couldn't leave the room where Aten and I were locked!”

Hayden growled. “You're no better than all the men I had to service since I was five years old. You watched passively as I was fucked raw by my uncle and your fucking husband!”

Robbie looked into the untamed, wild green eyes. “What?!”

“You didn't know? I should get my revenge on him right now!”

Hayden pointed his weapon at Robbie, who closed his eyes tightly.

The phone rang.

“Who could that be?” Jason asked.

Eric walked beside Jason. “It's an outside line.” He picked up the phone. “What?”

[……….]

“Are you going to talk or do I have to start killing hostages?”

Jeanie cuddled Cassie against her and sobbed.

[Eric?!]

Eric laughed. “Well, well…if it isn't the freak?!  Hey, Hayden! The freak is on the line!”

“ATEN!” Robbie cried out.

Hayden laughed. “What a coincidence!” The teen grabbed the phone. “Aten, man, I was just thinking about you!”

[Who is this?]

Hayden grinned. “Don't you remember me, Aten?  We've been through so much together.  We would watch the Indy 500 when we were kids….Daddy would tell us stories….You and I used to color.”

[Aiden?!  You have Robbie?!]

Hayden walked over to Robbie. “Took you long enough, slow poke!  You may as well talk to your fuck buddy before I kill him.”

[Aiden, please don't kill him!]

Hayden held the phone to Robbie, who sniffled and sobbed.

“Aten……”

Aten's quiet sobbing could be heard on the other end of the line. [Robbie?  Are you hurt, love?]

“No…I'm not hurt,” he said quietly.

“Yet,” Hayden added as he opened the chamber on his weapon.

“Aten, he's going to shoot me!” Robbie cried out.

[AIDEN, DON'T HURT ROBBIE!]

Hayden laughed. “Too bad, Aten!”

[Aiden, I'll do anything you ask! Please! Don't kill Robbie!]

“Aten, he deserves to die! But don't worry…I'll be after you next. I'll pay you back for what you did to me and I'll blow your brains out all over the bed!”

Aten shuddered at Hayden's tone.  “I'll do anything, Aiden….please don't.”

Hayden held the phone to his ear. “I hold your husband's life in my hands, Aten. Any wrong moves and Robbie looks like a piece of swiss cheese.” Hayden held the phone to Robbie's ear. “Any final words?”

Robbie's jaw dropped as he struggled to speak. “Aten?............I love you…unconditionally….with all my heart.”

Aten wiped his eyes free of tears. [I love you, too, Robbie…..For Eternity.]

 Hayden pretended to cry. "That's so fucking touching....I think I need to throw up now."

Eric, Jason, and Hayden laughed.

[Aiden, please don't kill him!]

Hayden grinned and pointed his gun at his target. "Say goodbye...."

Hayden pulled the trigger and hung up the phone quickly

*******************

 "ROBBIE!!!!! NOOO!" Aten shrieked as he fell to his knees, gripping his chest.

Miranda and Daniel jumped off of the couch and ran to the teen, clutching his chest.

"Aten, what's wrong??" Miranda asked.

Kadin hovered over Aten. "What happened?"

Aten's breathing became sharp and staggered. "I think....they....shot...Robbie..."

Miranda covered her mouth. "Daniel....."

Daniel took Miranda in his arms.

Vera walked down the steps, along with the grandmother.

"What is all this racket?" Vera asked.

"What is all this noise about?" the old woman asked bitterly.  "There better be a good reason!"

Daniel held Miranda. "I think the kidnappers shot Robbie."

The old woman crossed herself. "His soul is damned to hell for eternity. No amount of prayer can take him out of the fiery pits of hell for his sins!"

Vera brushed her hair back.  "I'll call the undertaker in the morning," she said casually.

Daniel supported Miranda as the two family members climbed the steps unconcerned.  "Miranda, let me get you into bed.  We can watch the news and see if that is really what happened."

Miranda sobbed. "My Robbie...."

"Boys, don't be up too late. Aten, I'm sure Robbie's okay. Don't forget to take your pills. Come on, honey."

Aten stared at the carpet blankly as Daniel lead Miranda upstairs. 'Pills.....why should I take them?  Robbie's dead.......I have no need for anything to help keep me alive....there's no point.'

Aten buried his face in his hands and cried. “Robbie….”

“Maybehe isn't dead, Aten,” Kadin said. “At least I'm here to help you through this rough time.Come, sit by the couch.”

Kadin helped Aten to the couch and held the crying teen. “It's okay, Aten,” he said as he kissed Aten's cheek.

Aten sniffled.”I wish Robbie was here to tell me everything was going to be okay.”

Kadin stroked Aten's leg. “Robbie will be okay. I get the feeling he doesn't like me much.”

Aten shook his head. “Robbie loves everyone. He gets protective of me. Father always said that Robbie would shake the hand of an angry grizzly bear.”

“Protective? Don't you mean…possessive?”

“Robbie doesn't treat me badly.”

“No, but doesn't he avoid me a lot? At your birthday party, he never left me alone with you for a second.”

“Robbie was interested in my gifts.”

Kadin chuckled. ”Maybe it was something more.”

Aten wiped his eyes dry. “Robbie would never be that way.”

Kadin turned Aten's face towards him. The Egyptian froze as he looked into Kadin's eyes. “Everyone has a darker side, Aten…friends can be enemies…and enemies…can be your worst nightmare. Angels…can be devils…and love…can be malice in disguise.”

Aten swallowed hard. “Robbie and I have been friends for fifteen years.”

“You never know what evil lurks in men's souls, Aten…”

“Yes……I do.”

“Oh, and how would you know?”

Aten swallowed hard and shifted away from Kadin. “I was….raped when I was a little child….I was only a toddler. And it happened again six years ago when I was twelve. I know what demons are.”

Kadin shifted closer. “Does Robbie know?”

“Yes.”

“Does he believe you?”

Aten nodded. “Yes.”

“Does he judge you?”

Aten shrugged. “He says no…but I blame myself.”

Kadin put his arm around Aten. “Does he treat you with kid gloves in bed?”

Aten nodded. “Yes.”

“I bet he gets upset when you freeze.”

Aten shook his head. “No….he used to take it personally, though, when we first began sleeping together. But I told him what happened to me and he doesn't get upset.”

“You had to explain it to him, though. He didn't automatically trust you.”

The Egyptian turned his head away from Kadin. “I kept it from him for a long time.”

Kadin turned Aten's head. “He should have believed you. That's what friends do….” Kadin stroked Aten's cheek again and kissed his cheek. “And what lovers do.”

Aten's eyes widened. “Lovers?”

Kadin leaned into him and moved his hand to the back of Aten's head. He pulled Aten into a hungry kiss as the Egyptian tried to pull himself away.

Aten felt Kadin's tongue slip into his mouth as he pushed against Kadin hard.

When Kadin released him, Aten jumped up.

“Kadin….I didn't ask you to kiss me. You didn't get my permission!”

Kadin stood up. “I was only trying to help you feel better, Aten! You know what, I'm just going to leave. Because nothing I do or say is good enough to you! I tried to open up to you and tell you how I feel and you make me feel like shit! Fine! I don't need your bullshit!”

Aten watched Kadin walk to the door and he sat on the couch, crying. He sobbed into his hand and Kadin stopped.

“Why are you crying?”

“Go if you want!”

Kadin turned and walked back to Aten. “You need me. You can't handle this alone.” Kadin tilted Aten's head up. “You need me.”

Aten looked up into Kadin's eyes. “I don't want to be alone.”

Kadin grinned and pulled Aten into a deep, hungry kiss.

***************************

Marik sat beside Malik and groaned. “What a long, stupid day…”

 Malik smiled and put his arm around his yami. “I'm sorry, marik. Here…turn around.”

 Marik turned on the couch and Malik kneeled behind him. The hikari massaged the yami's

aching shoulders. A soft moan escaped the yami as he went limp under his husband's

touch.

 “How does that feel?” Malik smiled.

 “Sexy,” Marik grinned.

 Malik giggled. “You're impossible, Marik Jibade.”

 “I think there's something else that needs a nice, hard massage.”

 Malik rolled his eyes. “You're in a mood.”

 “What do you expect? I just finished working my ass off and asking people if they want to

try our new `Buried Treasure Burrito.' I'll tell you this much…the treasure is nothing like I

expected.”

 Malik made a sour face. “EWWWWW…MARIK! GROSS!”

 “I'm only telling the truth…no gold nuggets!”

 Malik pulled away from Marik. “That's just sick!”

 Marik turned to Malik and hugged him. “I know I'm a sick bastard…but that's why you

married me.”

 “No, I didn't.”

 “You didn't?”

 “No. I married you because you are a sick, horny, dirty, and perverted bastard.”

 Marik laughed. “Oh yeah!”

 Marik pulled his husband down for a deep kiss. The two Egyptians let their hands explore

each other's body.

 Malik shifted closer as his yami kneaded his buttocks.

 Marik moaned into the kiss with his husband.

 The yami backed Malik onto his back and covered him with his body. Malik whimpered

as he felt Marik's hand flutter up his shirt.

 The door opened and Bakura staggered in, a bruise on his forehead.

 “Hi, Ishtars,” he groaned.

 “Mmmmffffbffa,” the two replied into each other's mouths as they continued to kiss.

 Bakura walked upstairs and went into the bathroom.

 “Where were you?” Ryou asked as he stood in the doorway.

 “I was trying to get into KaibaCorp and I guess I was thrown back one too many times,”

Bakura said as he pulled out the rubbing alcohol. He hissed through his teeth as he

cleaned the bruise and the cut on his arm.

 Ryou leaned against the doorway. “You're a stubborn asshole.”

 “And you're a bitch,” Bakura growled.

 Ryou grinned. “Glad you know your place for a change.”

 Bakura narrowed his eyes. “I bust my ass trying to save Seto and you're calling me an

asshole? I don't see you doing SHIT!”

 Ryou shrugged. “Why should I? I fucked him already. I don't need to go back for

seconds now.”

 Bakura slammed the rubbing alcohol on the toilet. “WHAT?!”

 Ryou grinned. “Jealous? You shouldn't be, considering  I've screwed Marik and Malik.”

 Bakura stood toe-to-toe with his husband. “We didn't discuss you being with Seto.”

 Ryou ran his hands over his chest. “He was good...he pumped me all night.  Besides,

what's with this `we didn't discuss this' bullshit? I have to discuss my sex life with you

now?”

 Bakura's hair spiked angrily. “I am your husband! You went behind my back!”

 Ryou raised his voice. “I DON'T CARE! I'D FUCK HIM AGAIN IF I WANTED

TO…AND I DO!”

 A chibi cry came from Aten's old room.  The child inside wailed loudly.  Jaimen stepped out of the bedroom with a yawn and went into comfort Ceres.

 "I hope you're happy, jackass! You woke up the chibi!" Bakura snarled.

 "I'm not happy and I've never been happy since I've had you in my life!"

 "YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Bakura growled.

 Bakura tackled Ryou into the hallway.  "I'm going to rip your head off!"

 Ryou scratched at Bakura's fresh wounds, kicking and screaming. "I'll skin you alive!"

 Marik looked up from the couch and looked up. "What the hell?!"  Marik and Malik stood up and raced up the stairs to find Bakura digging his teeth into the side of Ryou's neck and Ryou savagely punching Bakura in the head.

 "HOLY SHIT! KNOCK IT OFF, YOU TWO!" Marik growled as he ran to pull Bakura off of his Light.

 Malik tried to quickly separate Ryou's skin from Bakura's teeth.

 Bakura whipped his head around. "LET GO OF ME, ISHTAR! I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL RYOU RIGHT NOW!"

Ryou punched Bakura in the side of the eye. "JUST TRY IT, ASSHOLE!"

 Marik wrapped his arm around Bakura's neck and pulled. "Itemri.....get.....off."

 With a hard tug, Marik pulled Bakura off of Ryou, making Marik fall back with his burden.

 Ryou stood up and pointed an accusatory finger at Bakura. "YOU AND I ARE THROUGH, YAMI! I'M DONE WITH YOU!"

 Bakura narrowed his eyes. Marik and Malik could see the rage flaming in Bakura's eyes. The yami could not have been thinking logically. "FINE WITH ME!”

“I NEVER LOVED YOU ANYWAY!" Ryou growled.

 Bakura turned quickly and shut the door to his bedroom.

 Ryou banged on the door. "I GET THE BEDROOM!"

 Bakura opened the bedroom door and walked past Ryou.

 With a hard slam, the Ishtar's bedroom door closed.

 Ryou grinned. "YOU WERE NEVER WORTH MY TIME, BAKURA!"

 Ryou stamped into his bedroom and slammed the door shut.

 Marik and Malik stood in the hallway and shifted their eyes between the two doors....speechless.

***************************

Robbie screamed and ducked as Hayden discharged the bullet. The children woke up screaming at the bullet shattered through the window.

Seto looked over and saw the hole where Robbie's head had been. The blue-eyed teen screamed.

Eric laughed. “Damn, you missed, Hayden!”

Hayden grinned and cocked his weapon again.”Next time….I won't miss.”

Cassie turned and clutched onto her father tightly, her little cries rising above her sisters'.

Ivy and Lily cowered in their mother's arms.

Jason grabbed Robbie's collar and pulled him to a sitting position again.

Hayden grinned. “You can't hide from me, Robbie…..”

Robbie fought back the tears. “Hayden, let the kids go, at least! They don't deserve this!”

Hayden grinned. “Oh, no…the only way anyone leaves this office is if they are in a body bag….and I will make sure nobody leaves this building alive.”

 

Updates: Sunday

Note: I meant to put a Malik x Bakura lemon in this chappie, but Ryou surprised me with his little `breaking up' declaration. So….MALIK X BAKURA LEMON NEXT CHAPPIE! I PROMISE!
