Chapter Three

A New World

Malik looked up as he heard the lock on the door click. Yugi sat up when the door opened, and hey both gulped as the dreaded Pirate King looked in at them. He smiled.

"Good morning." He said, and Malik and Yugi blinked. "You may come out, if you like." Slowly, Yugi left the bed, and Malik looked down at Ryou,

"Ryou?" He called, gently. "Ryou, wake up."

"I'm awake." Ryou said, without opening his eyes. "I have been for quite a while." He sat up, and slid out of the bed not looking at the Pharaoh. Malik followed. Yami closed the door.

"I am called Yami." He said, and the three looked at him. "Welcome o the Black Magician. As long as you do not cause trouble, you will not be harmed or mistreated. You will have no reason to hate or fear us." To everyone's shock, Ryou promptly whirled, and swung his hand. Yami only had enough time to blink, before Ryou's palm struck his face.

"It's a little late for that reassurance." The boy spat. "I already hate you." Yami sighed as Ryou turned his back, and strode over to a window, looking out over the sea.

"I apologize. Now, I believe you could use some new clothes. All three of you. You are called Ryou? Come. You first." He opened one of three wardrobes. He pulled out a white linen shirt, and black leather pants. "Put these on." Ryou looked at the clothes, then took them, glaring. Yami smirked, and sat down, not taking his eyes off of Ryou. Ryou glared back for a few moments before deciding that this Yami would not be giving him privacy. He scowled, and slipped off the shorts pants he had worn to sleep in. He watched as Yami's eyes drifted down over his naked body. Ryou simply stood, and let him look. Finally, Yami looked into his eyes.

"Are you finished?" Ryou snarled, and Yami chuckled, while Malik and Yugi stared, shocked at Ryou's VERY uncharacteristic behavior.

"Yes." Yami said, and Ryou pulled on the pants, then the shirt. Yami smiled, and got up, tucking Ryou's shirt in for him, then handing him a belt, which Ryou put on himself. Yami then retrieved some black boots from the wardrobe, and watched Ryou put them on. They came up past his knees, and Yami knelt, folding the leather over, bringing them down to his upper calves.

"There. There's a hairbrush over there. Take care of that nest," He ruffled Ryou's hair. "While I take care of your friends." Ryou frowned, and whirled, stalking over to the brush, and began ripping it through his hair.

"You next, little one." Yami said, looking at his smaller look-alike. "What is your name?"

"Y-yugi." Yugi gulped. Yami nodded, and went to another wardrobe.

"These may be a bit big for you, but I'm sure I can come up with something." He said, and got out some clothes. He got Yugi into a dark red shirt, and dark brown pants. He then looked over Malik. Malik glared. Yami smirked, and gave Malik a white shirt, with brown pants, and a dark colored sash around his waist. He then looked over the three boys, and smiled.

"Not bad." He said. "Not bad at all. You all look great." Yugi blushed and smiled slightly at the compliment, Malik grunted, and Ryou scowled, and looked away. Yami sighed, and approached Ryou. "I know that no apology can make what I've done better, but you need to understand. This ship is now your home. And if you don't like it, you can't exactly leave. It would be easiest, if you just tried to adjust. All three of you." He glanced at Malik and Yugi. "As I said, this is your home. For now, I want you to remain under my supervision, or that of Bakura or Marik. Later, if we think it's all right, you can come and go whenever you want. Until then, you are confined this cabin, and only leave with me, Marik or Bakura." Ryou grunted.

"So we're prisoners." He snarled, and sat down at a chair by a chessboard. Yami sighed, and sat on the other side of the board.

"On a ship, we are ALL prisoners, little one. It's not like I could just decide to get up and go to the market, and I am the captain of this vessel." He looked at the chessboard between them. "So.... Do you play?"

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

Bakura snarled as the blade swiped across his cheek, leaving a cut. He glared at Marik, as the blonde's supporters cheered, and his own groaned. He smirked, and leapt forward, continuing the spar. He had the cut on his cheek, and one on his arm. Marik was sporting a single slash on his collarbone. Bakura caught Marik off guard, and cut his hand. Marik yelped, then smirked.

"That's two each. Next blood decides the match." Seto said, and the pair started again. The two darted back and forth, slowly making their way back towards he door to the captain's cabin. Bakura lunged with his katana, and Marik side stepped, and saw his opening; he punched Bakura in the nose. Bakura yelped, and stumbled back. He reached up and held his nose, until he felt something wet dripping from it. He stared as the blood dripped to his shirt.

"Marik is the victor." Seto said, and Marik gave Bakura a smug smirk. Bakura stared, eye wide.

"HE CHEATED!!!!" Bakura snapped. "He punched me in the nose!"

"And drew blood." Seto said.

"But, but, he can't..... awwww, dammit." Bakura grumbled, and Marik pat his friend on the shoulder.

"Hey, if I remember correctly, last time, you knocked me overboard." Marik said. Bakura snickered.

"Yeah. Took us nearly an hour to catch you." He laughed, and Marik grinned.

"I slept for a day straight after that swim. C'mon, let's get you cleaned up." He opened the door to the captain's cabin, and they entered, then froze. Yami was sitting at the chessboard, across from Ryou, and looked deep in thought.

"Hah!" He cried, and moved a piece. "Check! Try and stop this!" Ryou looked at the board, and moved a piece.

"Fine. Check." He said, quietly, and Yami stared.

"Okay. Fine. Ahah!!! Checkmate!!!" He crowed, slamming his piece down, taking out Ryou's Queen. Ryou sighed, and reached out over the board, and moved his bishop.

"There." He said. "NOW it's checkmate." Yami stared at the board in disbelief, then glared at Ryou.

"I hate you." He drawled in a monotone voice. "Six out of eleven?" At this, Bakura and Marik cracked up.

"So, the mighty King of Games has met his match?" Bakura snickered, and leaned on the back of Ryou's chair, grinning at a very ticked off Yami.

"Shut up, Bakura. Now go clean up before you bleed on Ryou." At that, Ryou squeaked, and leapt from the chair, scuttling over to Malik and Yugi on the sofa. Bakura grunted, and Marik brought him a bowl of water, and an old rag. Bakura cleaned his face, eyeing the three prisoners. Yami smirked.

"Now that you're here, I say we take these three outside for a while. And.... We can't keep all three of them locked up in one bed." Yami said. Bakura nodded.

"We need to gaud them." He snarled. "And I want my bed back."

"We should each keep one with us at night." Marik said, and approached Malik, smirking. He brushed his fingers over Malik's cheek. "I'll take this one......." Yami smirked.

"I doubt Ryou wants to stay with me, so Bakura can keep him."

"What?! Why me?!" Bakura demanded. "And why is he wearing MY clothes?!"

"Because Marik is taking Malik, and I'm taking Yugi." Yami said, shrugging, and Ryou and Bakura eyed each other. "And because your clothes fit him better." Finally, Bakura gave a disgusted sigh.

"Fine. Whatever. I'm taking a nap." And with a final venomous glare at Ryou, he vanished into his bed, and slammed the door, locking it from the inside. Marik sighed, and put a hand on Ryou's shoulder.

"Don't worry. He'll warm up to you." He said, and headed out to the deck, motioning Ryou, Yugi, and Malik to follow.

"I'm going to go see what we got last night." Yami said. "I'll meet you for lunch in half an hour." Marik nodded.

"You three, come with me." The blonde Egyptian said, and led them out onto the deck. "Welcome to the Black Magician." He said.
