...A Vampire's Lie...
The sound of footsteps radiated off the corners of the long hallway and Yugi looked down from the white ceiling to see his boyfriend still pacing restlessly. He squirmed around in his seat uncomfortably. He was starting to get sore from sitting in the same chair for the past two hours. He let his eyes set on Jou, who was leaned up against the wall on the opposite side, glaring fiercely at Yami with his arms crossed over his chest. With a deep sigh, Yugi looked back up at the ceiling and prayed to every god listening that a fight wouldn't erupt between the two extremely short-tempered vampires. He almost laughed when he heard someone punch the wall. Not even the gods could control these two.
Yugi shifted his eyes quickly to see Jou's fist still stuck in the wall and Yami, who hadn't even noticed since he was still pacing. He hadn't even acknowledged the blond vampire until Jou roared angrily: "Would you stop pacing already!? You're sending me up a fucking wall!"
Yami stopped in his tracks and Yugi instantly got to his feet to try to stop the events that were about to unfold. He didn't get to Yami in time as the other walked up only inches from Jou and took him by his neck. "I'm going to count to three and if you're not out of my sight, then I'll tear your fucking head off!"
Yami slowly let go of Jou's neck and stood back. "One."
"Yami please!" Yugi begged, wrapping his hands around the vampire's wrist. He turned to Jou and frowned. "Jou, go now."
But the blond didn't go. In fact, he didn't even budge.
"Two."
Jou laughed. "Can you possibly count any slower? What's wrong, Kaiba never taught you how to count that far?"
Yami immediately made a break for Jou and Yugi could barely keep him back. However, the sound of the door opening made everybody freeze in their tracks. All eyes turned to see a tan woman walk out of the room. Her eyes were a beautiful green and dark raven hair ran down her back. She wore a golden necklace around her neck and had a gold headband with a green jewel in the middle that rested on her forehead. She was preistess Isis Istar, Malik's older sister.
"Isis," Yugi said softly. "How is he?"
"Alive," she responded briskly. "He lost a lot of blood but he's doing okay now. He's still unconscious though."
Yugi nodded. "Thank you Isis."
The female vampire bowed gracefully. "Let me know if you need anything else, my lord."
With that, Isis walked away, leaving the three youths to stumble into the room hurriedly. Across the room, they all saw Kaiba lying on the bed next to the closed window. His skin was pale and his hair was a beautiful mess. His steady breathing reached the other's ears and they all exhaled, none of them aware that they had been holding their breath in the first place. The three walked over to the bed and Yugi shifted his eyes from Yami to Jou in an attempt to figure out what each one was currently thinking.
Yami's face was twisted with dangerous ferocity and his fist were clenched so tight that blood began to seep out of his closed hand. That wasn't so much of a surprise. However, Yugi was slightly taken aback when he looked at Jou. He watched as an unfamiliar emotion flashed in those dull amber eyes. It was something that he had never noticed before. An emotion that he had never seen. Yugi was about to say something when Yami's voice broke through the silence followed by a loud crash.
"I can't believe this shit! How the hell could this happen?!" Yami yelled angrily and, soon after, the chair beside him was smashed against the wall. Yugi gasped when he saw Jou's eyes snap up and glare with such hate and anger at the crimson-eyed king that Yugi took quick action. Before another fight could erupt, Yugi forced Yami outside the room snd closed the door behind them.
"Yami," Yugi said softly once he was sure that they were alone. "I know you're upset but this isn't going to help."
"I know Yugi but I can't control myself. I swear, I'm going to kill-"
"Maybe you should talk to the Superior. He'll know what to do."
Yami immediately shook his head. "Yugi-"
"Yami, your mind's in disturbia, it's like the darkness is the light. You can't see straight. You don't know what you're doing."
"I'm not-"
He stopped when he noticed Yugi's glare and immediately a sigh escaped his lips. He knew that look. And he knew very well that he wasn't going to win this argument. Yugi was just too damn stubborn. "Alright, I'll go," Yami said and then placed a small kiss on Yugi's lips. "Watch him for me," Yami added and Yugi couldn't help but smile. This was one of the few times that Yami ever showed how much he cared about his cousin. If the situation wasn't so serious then Yugi would have thought that it was cute.
With a small smile, Yugi nodded. "Be safe," he whispered.
"I will, beloved," Yami replied and, in a blink of an eye, he was gone.
"What the hell were you thinking? Jumping in the way like that?"
Yugi jumped when he heard Jou's voice and, for a moment, thought that Kaiba had woken up. However, when he peeked his head into the door, he saw Kaiba still resting peacefully on the bed. His eyes wandered back over to his best friend, who had his back turned from the sleeping brunet.
"You could have died, you idiot!" Jou snapped as he continued to stare out of the window, watching as the rain pounded on the glass. Yugi watched Jou's hands grip onto the railing. "I don't know what I would have done if that happened," the blond whispered softly.
Amethyst eyes immediately softened. 'Oh Jou...I didn't know.'
Yugi opened his mouth to say something but at that exact moment, Ryou and Bakura ran in the room, nearly knocking Yugi over in the process. Yugi's eyes widened in fear the second he looked at the two vampires. Each were littered with bruises and lacerations. Dried blood covered their pale white skin. A round discoloration rested on Ryou's cheek and Bakura entire left eye was black and completely sealed tight.
"Ryou!" Yugi yelled, after taking in his friend's beaten appearance. At this point, Jou was standing beside him with a worried look on his face. "What happened?"
"Yugi," Ryou said completely ignoring the other's question. With a quick look around the room, Ryou turned back to his king and inquired urgently: "Where's Yami, Malik, and Marik?"
Yugi placed a finger on his chin and responded thoughtfully: "I don't know where Malik and Marik are but Yami went to go talk to the Superior."
Ryou gasped. "Yugi!" he screamed fearfully. "Yami's going to die!"
The moment Ryou uttered those words, a large wave of silence crashed into the room and spread into the throats of everyone. The sun had set in the distance. In a slow motion, Yugi closed his eyes and inhaled a deep breath. When he reopened his eyes, they were a cynical blue. With his fangs showing clearly, Yugi turned to Ryou and hissed.
"Like. Hell."

The office was relatively large. At one corner, there was a long table, one for conducting meetings, that was decorated with green and brown furnishings. At the other end was a desk that had several papers scattered around carelessly. There was a green office lamp that was bright enough to light up the figure at the desk, who was scribbling peacefully on a sheet of white paper. A soft sound near the balcony caught his attention, and the figure looked up to stare into fiery red eyes.
“Good evening, Lord Rajos,” he greeted with a small smile. “What brings you here?”
“Good evening, Superior,” Yami replied with a polite yet stiff bow. “It appears that I have a problem that needs immediate attention.”
Sensing the serious tone, the elder vampire placed his pen down on the desk and stretched out his hand towards an empty chair. Yami quickly complied with the silent command and, after about a minute of silence, spoke slowly. “There was an assassination attempt on my cousin’s life earlier today,” he said while trying to hide the anger in his voice.
The Superior instantly sat up in his chair. “Attempt? You mean Kaiba is still alive?”
Yami nodded. “Yes, he is. However,” he whispered grimly. “The culprit escaped. And Yugi insists that I consult you before making any…,” Yami reached for a word, “rash decisions.”
“Lord Azules?” The Superior repeated with a slight touch of surprise. “Is he still okay as well?”
Yami raised an elegant eyebrow. “’Still?’ What do you mean ‘still?’”
The Superior shook his head. “I just assumed that Kaiba was not the only one targeted." Then he inquired suddenly: “Lord Rajos, may I ask you something?”
“Of course,” Yami responded. He noticed the way that the light from the moon illuminated the different shades of light blue that colored the elder’s long hair. The next thing the Superior said caught him off guard.
“Do you really think it is a good idea for you and Lord Azules to be in a romantic relationship?” he inquired slowly.
“Why wouldn’t it be?” Yami questioned after recovering his composure.
“Well, its just that these relationships between people of separate clans, especially kings, have turned out very badly in the past. It would be a mistake for you two to conjoin your kingdoms,” The Superior explained hastily.
Yami bit his lip. “Weren’t you the one who asked that Yugi and myself come to a compromise?”
“Yes but this is not what I meant. I merely needed the war to end for the sake of all of the other clans.”
“Well, the war has ended,” Yami replied with a confused frown.
A long sigh escaped the Superior's slightly parted lips. “So there is nothing that would make you change your mind about Lord Azules?”
Yami, who had, at this point, grown weary of the Superior's incessant questioning, spoke very cautiously yet surely: “No, I’m afraid not.”
With a small nod, the Superior folded his hands across the desk and leaned forward slightly. At this angle, the light from his lamp on the table shined brightly in his eyes, sending a shadow over his different colored eyes; one a devilish brown and the other a menacing green. When he opened his mouth, his words flowed out slowly but clearly. His deadly tone was enough to send shivers down the Rajos king's spine.
“Then I’m afraid you leave me no choice,” he said carefully.
With a graceful move of his hand, the Superior snapped his fingers. Yami didn’t have time to react as two pairs of hands grabbed on to each of his wrists, yanking him completely off the chair. A hard kick to the back of his legs sent the crimson-eyed king to his knees in painful shock. With a sharp intake of breath, Yami looked up to see several sets of eyes, all glowing with different colors.
“What the hell is going on?!” Yami shouted while trying to tear himself away from the two vampires that were holding him in his place. When he didn’t get a response, he snapped his head to his right and glared into dark black eyes. “Otogi?” Then he turned to his left. “Honda?”
The brown-eyed vampire looked away shamefully and that’s when Yami felt his temper begin to boil in the pit of his stomach. “Answer me, damnit!” he demanded before turning back to the Superior only to see Lady Violetas and Lady Verdes standing on both sides of the elder.
“Sorry it has to be this way, hun,” Mai said softly, her eyes shining a light purple.
Confusion wrote itself across Yami’s handsome features. Why were all the leaders of the clans here? And, better yet, why was he being held down by two of them? Why was the Superior so worried over his and Yugi’s relationship? Why did someone try to kill Kaiba? Why–
Yami stopped. Like a jigsaw puzzle, every piece began to fit into place. Yami's eyes flashed a dark ruby as he struggled against his captives in a fit of uncontrollable rage. “It was you, you son of a bitch!” Yami snarled, his eyes flaring with anger. ”You’re the one who tried to separate me and Yugi! You’re the one who sent out the order on Kaiba! You're behind everything that's happened!”
The Superior clapped his hands, his smirk never leaving his face. “Very good Yami. However, the order was sent out on everybody, including you. Your lucky you're still alive.” And then as an afterthought: "I guess we'll have to fix that."
Yami glared daggers at the elder vampire. “I’m going to murder you! I’m going to rip you to pieces, you bastard! How dare you think you could get away with this! You all just signed your bloody death wish!”
With a sinister smile, the Superior walked over to the kneeling king, his white fangs shining clearly in the light. Placing one of his fingers under Yami’s chin, he forced the crimson-eyed vampire to look him directly in the eye. “I’ll be sure to make Yugi’s death as painless as possible.”
"Your dead!"
In a split second, Yami made a lunge for the blue-haired only to be forcefully pulled back onto the floor by the two holding his arms, dislocating one of his shoulders in the process. The Rajos king hissed out in pain as he was brought back up to his feet by Honda and Otogi. The Superior watched the little scene with a wide grin. It wasn’t until Yami was standing up again that the mismatched-eyed vampire made a small gesture, sliding his thumb across his neck in a quick motion.
“Kill him,” he said before walking out of the room, Mai and Anzu close behind him.
…TBC...
Yuri: OoOoOo bet some of you didn't see that coming. So, some people realized that, in the last chapter, the vampire who had told everyone to kill the two kings and their associates was Dartz (which is correct). However, no one put two and two together and said that Dartz was the Superior. But anyways, congrats to DarthAnimus who immediately suspected the Superior as the bad guy. But some of you did mention at one point or the other that it was him. And if any of you are wondering if it was the Superior who snuck out of the room, it wasn't but that'll be explained in the next chapter.
The sound of footsteps radiated off the corners of the long hallway and Yugi looked down from the white ceiling to see his boyfriend still pacing restlessly. He squirmed around in his seat uncomfortably. He was starting to get sore from sitting in the same chair for the past two hours. He let his eyes set on Jou, who was leaned up against the wall on the opposite side, glaring fiercely at Yami with his arms crossed over his chest.

He almost laughed when he heard someone punch the wall. Not even the gods could control these two.
Yugi shifted his eyes quickly to see Jou's fist still stuck in the wall and Yami, who hadn't even noticed since he was still pacing. He hadn't even acknowledged the blond vampire until Jou roared angrily: "Would you stop pacing already!? You're sending me up a fucking wall!"
Yami stopped in his tracks and Yugi instantly got to his feet to try to stop the events that were about to unfold. He didn't get to Yami in time as the other walked up only inches from Jou and took him by his neck. "I'm going to count to three and if you're not out of my sight, then I'll tear your fucking head off!"
Yami slowly let go of Jou's neck and stood back. "One."
"Yami please!" Yugi begged, wrapping his hands around the vampire's wrist. He turned to Jou and frowned. "Jou, go now."
But the blond didn't go. In fact, he didn't even budge.
"Two."
Jou laughed. "Can you possibly count any slower? What's wrong, Kaiba never taught you how to count that far?"
Yami immediately made a break for Jou and Yugi could barely keep him back. However, the sound of the door opening made everybody freeze in their tracks.

She wore a golden necklace around her neck and had a gold headband with a green jewel in the middle that rested on her forehead. She was preistess Isis Istar, Malik's older sister.
"Isis," Yugi said softly. "How is he?"
"Alive," she responded briskly. "He lost a lot of blood but he's doing okay now. He's still unconscious though."
Yugi nodded. "Thank you Isis."
The female vampire bowed gracefully. "Let me know if you need anything else, my lord."
With that, Isis walked away, leaving the three youths to stumble into the room hurriedly. Across the room, they all saw Kaiba lying on the bed next to the closed window. His skin was pale and his hair was a beautiful mess. His steady breathing reached the other's ears and they all exhaled, none of them aware that they had been holding their breath in the first place.

Before another fight could erupt, Yugi forced Yami outside the room snd closed the door behind them.
"Yami," Yugi said softly once he was sure that they were alone. "I know you're upset but this isn't going to help."
"I know Yugi but I can't control myself. I swear, I'm going to kill-"
"Maybe you should talk to the Superior. He'll know what to do."
Yami immediately shook his head. "Yugi-"
"Yami, your mind's in disturbia, it's like the darkness is the light. You can't see straight. You don't know what you're doing."

"Like. Hell."

Yami, who had, at this point, grown weary of the Superior's incessant questioning, spoke very cautiously yet surely: “No, I’m afraid not.”
With a small nod, the Superior folded his hands across the desk and leaned forward slightly.
