Kenya stopped in mid air and hovered for a moment, her wings flaring to stop from dropping. She could have just sworn she heard Ryou calling.

The sun was setting and just a minute ago she had decided to leave to give Ryou the news about him being able to tell one person about her.

She listened again and a shiver crept up her spine. It was like a thousand icicles trailing down her back. `Something's wrong' she thought, starting to fly again. `Hang on Ryou, I'm coming!'

The white haired angel could sense something was happening.

The air was full of black magic, which made her worry.

The black magic was so strong. It had been strong ever since about a night ago.

`I hope Kail is okay' she thought mentally before continuing her quest.

She soared through the clouds giving her much coverage from the eyes of mortals.

The clouds were painted with pinks and reds because of the setting sun.

When Ryou's house came into view, Kairi spiraled down quickly. She checked the magic level to make sure Bakura wasn't home and when she didn't sense him, she glided through the wall into the house that led to Ryou's room.

Blue orbs looked around softly. She retracted her wings into her back. "Ryou, are you here?" she yelled through the house.

"Kairi? Hurry! Come down stairs quickly!" the white haired youths voice screamed from down stairs.

The female was quick to react and darted out of the room, jumping down the stairs two four at a time. When she got to the bottom, Kairi sprinted into the living room.

Ryou was kneeling next to a blonde boy who was coughing and shuddering endlessly. Tanned skin was burning up quickly.

The white haired male jumped up in a state of panic. "Malik is really sick! I'm afraid he won't make it! Can you help him?"

The female slowly nodded. "Yes, I can". She hurriedly walked over to the tanned boy. "Ryou, if I heal him and he wakes up… he will be the only one you are allowed to tell about me".

The white haired male quirked his head, "What do you mean?"

"I was coming to tell you that I can allow you to tell one person about me. If Malik is cured, he is the one you will choose" Kairi said, looking at the blonde male.

"I would trust Malik with my life" Ryou said confidently.

She nodded and smiled. She put her hand on Malik's forehead and started to use her healing abilities. The white haired female suddenly pulled her hand back when a painful shock of black magic surged through her body and sent her flying back against the wall.

"Kairi! Are you alright?" the white haired boy said, running over to her.

The white haired females head spun for a moment before she came back into full consciousness. She stood up, "Yeah, I'm fine. Malik… He was a spell on him that repels my white magic. It's a spell of black magic… something I can't break yet".

The brown-eyed boy started to panic, "How are we going to save Malik?"

The white haired female looked at the blonde fevered male intensely. "Is there some sort of cure maybe? What caused the fever, it's obviously not natural".

"Bakura hit him with a poison dart. I've seen the cure; it's a blue liquid. I think that Bakura carries it with him" the white haired male said. "He might keep some in his room though".

The blue-eyed female nodded. "Then let's go get it".

"I can't" The male said hesitantly.

The female looked at him oddly. "Why not?"

"Bakura's room makes me sick every time I go in it. It's so disgusting, it makes me ill and I always end up puking."

Kairi gulped. `It must be bad'. She looked at the fevering boy lying on the couch and swallowed. "I'll go then".

Ryou looked at Malik with worried brown eyes. "Please hurry. It's the room across from my own".

The white haired female darted up the stairs without another word. She looked at Ryou's room and then at the door on the other side of it.

The door was gray and painted with dried blood.

Kairi fought off her second thoughts and opened the door and stepped through hurriedly. She almost gagged.

Bakura's room was painted pure black with black shades drawn over the windows to prevent any light from passing through. There were a couple of red candles that lit the room dully and revealed blood caked walls.

That wasn't the worst part though.

Kairi could smell rotting flesh in the room and was positive something or someone's dead body must have been in there.

"What in Ra's name is he?" she questioned softly out loud.

Malik suddenly snapped into her head and she put her hand over her mouth to cover up the stench. She had to find the cure if there was one.

The small burning flames revealed a couple of things to be searched.

A long silver chest, a wooden wardrobe, a closed closet, and the bed.

Resentfully, she walked over to the trunk and opened it slowly. The chest was heavy because it was made of such strong metal.

Her eyes widened when dozens of freshly polished weapons were revealed from the chest.

Swords, daggers, arrows, darts, razors…

Everything for a complete torture session was there.

Her eyes wandered over the weapons but she could see nothing that resembled a blue elixir. She shut the lid of the chest with a slam and climbed on top of it to the bed.

Petite hands wandered over the sheets but still there was nothing.

Kairi coughed softly and moved from the bed to the closet swiftly. She looked at it warily but swung the door open anyways.

Relief fell upon her when nothing but leather outfits and clothing came into sights. She searched all the pockets of the clothing and all the shelves in the closet but closed it when again she found nothing.

The wardrobe.

It was the last place she hadn't looked.

The blue-eyed female walked over and coughed when the stench suddenly got worse. Kairi was careful with this closet. She gripped the handle tightly but was resentful to open.

Ryou and Malik popped into her head.

`Malik needs that cure and Ryou will be devastated if I don't find it' she told herself. The angel female then pulled the door open but as soon as she did, she ran behind the door.

Lucky for her instincts.

A dead body fell out of the wardrobe and the smell of a rotting carcass filled the air around her.

Kairi's eyes went wide as saucers.

It was a male who looked like he had been in his early teens. It was hard to tell because his body was shriveling up and green mold was forming around his body. His own blood was smeared everywhere and was starting to form a puddle on the floor. Bugs were swarming around the body, feasting on the flesh.

The white haired female's eyes widened when she saw a clear tube in the boy's hand. Her eyes widened even more when she saw it was filled with a blue liquid that must have been the cure.

"Oh Ra" she whispered. Her hand slowly reached out and she gently took the tube from the dead male's rotting hand. Blood dripped in between her fingers, the tube drenched with the fluid.

Kairi was about to leave when she saw a piece of paper wrapped around the note that she couldn't ignore.

For a minute she took her hand off her nose and unraveled the parchment, ignoring the foul smell to the best of her abilities.

It read:

~~~

Whatever you do, don't turn around angel.

~~

Kairi froze.

Now she was scared.

Not only was she now petrified of turning around but also somebody knew that she was an angel.

She shivered when she felt prickled travel up her spine. The white haired female didn't dare turn around because right then, she knew someone was behind her.

A sudden pair of hands wrapped around her neck and pressed onto her pressure points making the small angels body fall limp into strong hand.

Kairi didn't even get a chance to call for help before she picked up and carried bridal style out the door.

The bottle of blue liquid fell onto the floor and shattered on Bakura's floor before it could ever reach Malik.
