Quality Time

Marik sighed as he closed the door to Bakura*s bed. His friend was already asleep, and the last thing Marik saw was Ryou*s eyes drooping. He turned to face Yami, Yugi and Malik, and smiled.

*I*ll give them under a minute to be asleep.* Yami said.

*You*d win. Bakura is already, and Ryou will be in the next fifteen seconds if he isn*t already.* Marik sat down by Malik and leaned on his elbows propped on his knees and looked at Yami. *That little squirt saved Bakura*s life, Yami.*

*Yes. This should definitely improve things for Ryou. Hopefully he*s back in everyone*s good standing for this.* Yami said. Marik cocked his head, and held out his hands, teetering them back and forth like a scale.

*Saving Bakura*s life, racking Yami..... Bakura*s life, Yami*s balls...... Bakura*s life, Yami*s balls...... Hmmmmmm........* Marik mused, and Yami snickered at his friend*s antics. *Nope. When you slam someone in the nads, it*s personal, my friend. I think Ryou still has a way to go before the crew forgives him.* Yami laughed.

*Maybe.*

*They won*t hurt Ryou, will they?* Yugi asked Yami, grabbing his arm. Yami looked at the large violet eyes staring at him. He smiled.

*No. I don*t think so.*

*Not after seeing your blade covered in blood.* Marik said. *That*s when they know that you mean business...* Malik gulped, remembering the sight of Ryou*s attacker slumping over, dead. Yami looked at Malik.

*I*m sorry if I frightened you.* He said, and Malik shook his head.

*I*ve just..... Never seen anyone die before.*

*You may want to get used to it.* Marik said, putting an arm around Malik. *You are, after all, on a pirate ship.* Yami chuckled.

*I think they figured that out, Marik.*

*When Ryou hurt you....* Yugi began, and Yami looked down at him. *You were going to kill us, but you stopped...*

*It was a test, Yugi. We have no use for cowards on this ship.* Yami said. *When we take prisoners, we test them to see if they have the balls to join the crew.*

*And Mai and Ishizu *had the balls,* huh?* Malik giggled, and Yugi giggled too. Marik and Yami blinked, then chuckled as well.

*Okay, okay..... The guts.* Yami said, making the other three just laugh harder. *Oh, shut up. Anyway, we do this by making you face the ultimate thing; death. Anyone who breaks down and begs for their life isn*t worth it, and they are killed. Those who face it with no fear...... well, no one is completely fearless in the face of death..... Those who face it with courage and bravery, as you three did, are worthy to live. You three are definitely worth keeping around.* Yami said, giving Yugi a noogie.

*Yami....* Yugi said, saying the man*s name to his face for the first time. *Would you really have killed us if we had been afraid?* Yami sighed, and leaned back, deep in thought.

*I honestly don*t know. When I saw you, something in me..... Sparked. For some reason, the more I see you, the more I believe that we were destined to meet.....* Yugi*s eyes widened.

*...... Me too.........* He said, quietly, and Malik rolled his eyes.

*Oh, for cryin* out loud......* He muttered.

*C*mon, Malik.....* Marik said. *Don*t tell me you didn*t feel it.* Malik looked at him. *I did.* Malik looked at his feet.

*Maybe... I don*t think THEY did.....* Malik said, motioning to Bakura*s bed.

*I don*t know if Ryou did.....* Yami said. *But Bakura did. He could hardly say a word, and that*s something significant for him.* Marik laughed.

*Yeah. *Bloody hell Marik.................... Bloody Hell.......* that was hilarious!* Marik mimicked, making Yugi and Malik giggled slightly, and Yami outright laughed.

*Yes, Bakura definitely felt something.* Yami said with a grin. *He*s a good man. One of the best I*ve ever known.* Marik nodded.

*He*s crazy!* Malik squeaked. Marik snickered, and flipped over, so he was straddling Malik*s lap. *Eep!*

*No, I*m crazy.......* Marik hissed. *He*s pretty sane compared to me.* Malik*s eyes widened.

*You seem like the sanest one on this whole damn boat!* He gasped, and Marik chuckled.

*That*s because Bakura screwed me and screwed me good last night.* Yugi and Malik*s eyes nearly popped out of their heads. *I go without sex for too long, and I get pretty scary....* Yami laughed.

*Last time he and Bakura got in a fight, Marik went without for nearly two weeks. One man died and one lost his manhood before I screwed him into submission and ended the terror.* The captain grinned at the memory. *That was one hell of a night.*

*That was one hell of a fuck, Pharaoh.* Marik said, grinning over his shoulder at Yami, who clapped his hands over Yugi*s ears and gave Marik a look of mock horror.

*Marik! There are children present!*

*You were the one talking about pounding me into the bed, Yami.* Marik said with a grin. *Next time I need some relief, maybe this delicious little one will help me out....* Marik said, turning back to Malik and licking his cheek. Malik gasped and stared at Marik. Looking into the wild lavender eyes he felt something in him stir.

*Maybe....* He whispered, and Marik look surprised.

*Really?*

*Okay, so I lied.....* Malik said. *I did feel something when I saw you.* Impulsively, he darted forwards and pressed his lips to Marik*s. Marik*s eyes widened. Sure, he was delighted, but he had expected Yugi to make the first move out of all six of them, and here Malik was kissing him. But hell, he wasn*t complaining, as he kissed Malik back. Yugi and Yami sat on the love seat with identical expressions on their faces; eyes wide and disbeleiving, mouths hanging open. Slowly, they turned to look at the other, before turning their gaze back to the two blondes making out on the sofa. The kiss finally ended, and Marik slid off of Malik and back to his own seat on the sofa, a dazed expression on his face. Malik had his head tiled back and his eyes closed, lips slightly parted. Slowly, he opened his eyes and looked at Yami and Yugi.

*What possessed you to do that?* Marik gasped.

*.......... I got sick of waiting for Mr. Goo-goo Eyes Yugi to put the move on Yami.* Malik breathed, and Yami looked at Yugi who flushed a bright crimson. There was a sudden knock on the door.

*Enter!* Yami called, after a moment. Seto entered, looking very grim. *Are we through the worst of the storm?*

*Seto?* Marik said, noting the pale complexion of the pirate. Seto threw a piece of rope onto the table in front of the four boys, followed by a shorter length.

*What*s this?* Yami asked, sitting up and looking.

*THAT, was Bakura*s life line, Yami.* Seto said, and picked up one end of each piece of rope, and handed them to the Pirate King. *Yami, that was no accident. Look. It didn*t snap, there*s no sign of wearing.*

*What?* Marik gasped, and stood to see the rope himself. Seto nodded, and took a deep breath.

*Yami, this rope was cut. Clean, by a knife. On purpose.* Seto said. Yami*s eyes widened as he felt the rope carefully.

*By Ra.....* Marik breathed. *He*s right!*

*Someone wants Bakura dead.* Seto said. *And he would be dead, if it weren*t for that boy. Are they sleeping?* Yami nodded, mutely, looking like he was in shock. *You should tell Bakura when he wakes up. If someone wants Bakura dead, they most likely want you and Marik dead, too. There*s a traitor on this ship.....*
