Engulfed in Brightness
Chapter One
by Ravenx

The sound of little feet is heard running down the dark blue hallway, they stop in front of a large wooden door. A small fist reaches up to knock on the hard surface, a giggle escapes through small pink lips as light violet eyes look down the hall in the direction they came from. The door finally starts to open but before it is open too wide the little feet run inside, knocking the leg of the tall white haired boy on the other side.

“Hey!” Bakura looks down to see a flash of pale blonde go pass him.

“Kura? Did you say something?” Ryou walks out of the bathroom with a large, fluffy towel in his hands, his long white hair hanging wet around his face.

“I think we have a visitor.” Bakura points to the little pair of legs sticking out from under the large black and red covered bed as he moves away from the still open door.

“We do, huh?” Ryou smiles as he hears a muffled giggle coming from under the bed.

“The little runt nearly knocked my leg off.”

“Watch what you call my son.” Two pairs of brown eyes turn to see Malik in the doorway. His long, pale blonde hair brushed out of his face, violet eyes searching the room as his hands smooth down his tight tan shirt over his slim frame. His dark brown leather pants riding low on his hips. “Now where is the little runt?”

“Why can you call him that but I can't?” Bakura sits on the arm of the black sofa.

“Because he belongs to me. Now where is he?”

“I don't know, he ran in here so fast we didn't see where he went.” Ryou tries to cover his laughter as he points to the legs sticking out from under the bed.

Malik rolls his eyes as he moves forward quietly.

“I wonder where my little sweet pea went.” His bare feet move silently over the plush black carpet. “I was going to see if he wanted to play video games but since he isn't here I guess I'll go play with Zemti.”

“No!” The little legs kick and move until they back up enough for the little boy to stand, he runs over to Malik, wrapping his tiny arms around his leg. “I want to play.”

“There's my baby.” Malik chuckles as he reaches down to lift up the little boy, brushing the soft pale blonde hair out of the bright violet eyes. “Come here, sweet pea, let me get that hair out of your face.”

Malik sits the boy down on the large bed before reaching into his pocket to get a hair band. Pulling the soft hair behind the slender shoulders, he ties it in a low ponytail at the nape of the boy's neck.

“Better?”

“Yeah.” The little blonde haired boy giggles as Malik sits next to him.

“So, what you two planning on today?”

“Nothing. Mind if we come play with you guys?” Ryou throws the towel into the bathroom before shutting the door behind him.

“Nope. I think every ones planning on coming over. The boys will be running a little late cause they all have meetings to go to.” Malik gets up, picking up the little boy beside him.

“I want Uncle Ryou to carry me.” Large violet eyes look over to the white haired boy.

“Sorry, Raia but Uncle Ryou can't, you're too heavy for our miracle mate to carry.” Malik smiles over at Ryou.

“Stop calling me that.”

“Why not? That's what you are.” Bakura walks over to stand behind his mate.

“No, I'm not.”

“Ryou, you have got to be the only male mate in history to carry twins.” Malik shifts Raia to his other arm.

Ryou blushes as Bakura's strong arms wrap around his mate's large, rounded stomach covered by a large, form fitting black shirt. The loose jeans pool over his bare feet. Leaning back Ryou rest his head on Bakura's shoulder, his hands coming up to lay on top of the vampire's.

“Hey!” Bakura jerks his hands back from Ryou's stomach. “Why is every one running into me or kicking me today?”

“Don't know. Maybe you should ask Raia and Athan.” Ryou moves over to the door.

“I still don't understand how you know which is which.” Malik follows the white haired boy with Bakura right behind him.

“I don't either. I just…do.” Walking down the long hallway, the three boys stop at another large door.

“Go on in. Marik went over to talk to Yami about something.”

Entering the tan colored room, Ryou moves to sit on the sofa. His hands going to stroke his large belly. He smiles up at the boy in Malik's arms before patting the cushion next to him. Raia smiles and practically jumps out of his dad's arms on to the sofa, snuggle up into Ryou's side as a thin arm wraps around him.

“You're going to make a great dad, Ryou.” Malik sits next to Raia, reaching out to turn on the television hanging on the wall in front of them. “Why don't we wait for the others to get here before we start playing. We can listen to some music.” Flipping through a screen he programs the video game system to play a CD that's in it.

“Kura, can you go get me something to drink?” Ryou turns big, brown, puppy dog eyes to his lover.

“Yeah, be back in a little.” Bakura sighs before kissing the soft white hair of his mate and leaving.

“Man, I still can't get over how much Bakura has changed in the last five years.” Malik looks at the closed door.

“I have my ways.” Ryou giggles as he starts to tickle Raia. “Are you going to help me when Athan and Brennan are born?”

“Yeah.” Raia giggles as he scoots into Malik's lap. “Daddy help.”

“What should I do? Maybe this.” Malik begins to help Ryou tickle his youngest son, the three of their laughter bouncing off the walls.

“What in the world is going on in here?”

Malik and Ryou stop tickle Raia to look over at the door. Yugi stands in a pair of tight black leather pants and a tight burgundy tank top. He smiles over at the three on the sofa as he enters the room carrying a small boy. The tri-colored hair of the boy rest on Yugi's shoulder, his eyes closed, his arms and legs hanging limply.

“Better question is what happened to little Akira?” Ryou sits up holding his belly.

“He was asleep but Yami said to come on over. You mind if I lay him on the bed, Malik?”

“No, go ahead.”

“How are you doing Ryou?” Yugi asks as he gently lays the small boy on the white of the bed. He brushes a strand of blonde hair out of Akira's face before moving over to the sofa.

“Besides the back pain, sore muscles, and almost consist kicking to my organs I'm fine.” The white haired boy smiles at his small friend who sits in between him and Malik. Raia doesn't waste any time hopping into his lap.

“Hey Raia.”

“Hey Uncle Yugi.” Raia buries his pale blonde head in Yugi's shoulder as his small fingers pick at his little purple shirt. “I want poppa.”

“Poppa will be here in a little bit, sweet pea.” Malik turns his gaze from his son to Yugi. “What are they talking about?”

“I don't know. Really wasn't paying much attention.”

A soft knock sounds throughout the room. Malik gets up and opens the door to reveal Joey, his white jeans hanging loosely around his feet. The dark blue tank top hugs his growing stomach tightly as his long arms brush back his sandy blonde hair.

“Hey, can I come in?”

“Of course.” Malik smiles as he steps out of the way. “You can sit on the couch next to Yugi and Raia.”

“Thanks, my feet are killing me.” Joey waddles over to the sofa before plopping down.

“I know what you mean.” Ryou rubs his belly.

“I don't know which of you has it worse. Joey being two weeks away from delivering or Ryou carrying six month twins.” Yugi looks back and forth between them.

“I think we both have it rough. Ryou might have it a little harder though since this is his first pregnancy and its twins.” Joey reaches out to pinch Raia's little toes, earning him a giggle.

“Plus they are Bakura's kids. Double the trouble. Double the pain.” Malik chuckles.

“What about my kids?” Malik jumps as Bakura's voice sounds behind him.

“Don't do that!”

“Whatever. Here Ryou.” Bakura hands Ryou a glass of water.

“Thanks Kura.” Ryou pats the arm rest next to him, Bakura sits down looking around.

“What are we doing?”

“Waiting for the others. Maybe we can go swimming or something besides playing games.” Yugi sits a squiggling Raia down on the floor, the little feet starting to move as soon as they touch the soft carpet.

Raia runs to the closed door, his little hand reaching for the handle and turning it with a little difficulty.

“Where do you think you're going?” Malik puts his hands on his hips looking down at his son.

“I'm going to get Poppa.” Raia calls before running down the hall.

“I swear he can't stay still for more than ten seconds.” Malik rolls his eyes as he sits in the floor in front of the sofa. “Man this is weird.”

“What?” Yugi asks.

“All of us are going to have kids under the age of five at the same time. That's like never happened.”

“I know. The closest we've come to that was with Hikaru and Zemti.” Yugi smiles as he looks over at the still open door. “There's my other baby.”

“Dad, I'm not a baby anymore.” Hikaru walks into the room, his tall frame moving to stand beside the sitting Malik.

“All my sons are still my babies.”

“I told you to wait for me baka.” Zemti enters the room with Drake close behind him.

“I can't help it if you took too long.” Hikaru dodges a punch to his upper arm.

“Boys, don't even start. Akira's asleep.” Malik reaches over and hits both boys in their shins.

“Sorry dad.” Zemti sticks his tongue out at the tall tri-colored boy before moving to sit next to Malik.

“Hey honey.” Joey smiles up at Drake who now stands beside him.

“Don't `hey' me. You know you aren't suppose to go anywhere without me or father.”

“I walked down the hall. It's not like I went all over the mansion.”

“I don't care. You're just a couple of weeks away from having Brayden and father will kill me once he finds out.”

“Don't worry, I'll tell him not too.” Joey reaches out to pat Drakes arm.

“Oh, that's reassuring.”

The boys around the room chuckle at the interaction between father and son. A soft whining stops them.

“Hikaru, will you check on you're brother?” Yugi looks over his shoulder at his youngest.

“Sure.” As the tall tri-colored haired vampire moves past the door the other three Majestics enter.

“We having a party?” Marik looks around the room, he walks over to Malik and Zemti with Raia in his arms. “I found this little guy in the hall.”

“He wanted his poppa.” Malik smiles up at the two.

“How are you doing puppy?” Seto steps up behind Joey on the sofa.

“Wishing people would quit asking me that.” Joey mumbles as he leans back into the hand massaging his hair.

“I can't help but worry about you.”

“I know.”

“Father, Akira wants you.” Hikaru carries the little boy over to Yami who still stands in the door.

“Hey there, little one.” Yami takes his youngest son into his arms, the dark purple eyes looking up into his matching one.

“Poppy!” Akira smiles as he buries his head in the tall vampire's neck, his small arms reaching up, trying to encircle Yami's neck.

“Where are Saiai and Mikado?” Ryou lifts his head from Bakura's side.

“Mikado is in the lab working on something. I don't know where Saiai is though.” Yami says as he rubs Akira's little back.

“He said he wanted to get a workout so he's probably in the gym.” Drake speaks.

“So what the hell are we doing? Ouch!” Bakura's hand flies up to the back of his head.

“Don't say that word around Akira and Raia.” Ryou hisses.

“Sorry.” Bakura rolls his dark brown eyes.

“What does everyone fill like doing?” Yugi looks around the large group.

“Swim.” Raia pumps his fist in the air, his legs kicking against Marik's stomach.

“Watch it, baby.” Marik moves his son over a little in his arms.

“Sorry, poppa.” Raia giggles as he pulls on a strand of Marik's pale blonde hair.

“Okay, so lets say every one meet at the pool in half an hour?”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

̶ 0;Wait, wait. I have to sit down a second.” Ryou leans against the wall of the stairway, the light dancing off his bright brown eyes.

“Fine.” Bakura stops a couple of steps below his mate, turning to look at him.

“Don't just stand there, help me.” Ryou holds out his hands. Once Bakura takes a hold of him he leans back, grunting as he finally sits down on a step. “Thank you.”

“How are they doing?” Bakura squats down to Ryou's level in front of him, his larger hands snaking out to rub the bulge under Ryou's loose, light blue shirt.

“Good. Athan still wants to kick. Brennan is being a little angel though.” He smiles as a little foot kicks at Bakura's hand.

“Athan?” Bakura looks up at Ryou, after receiving a nod he strokes the left side of his mates belly. "Then this must be Brennan.”

“Yep. I can already tell he is going to be like me and Athan is going to be a little you.” Ryou reaches out to caress the side of Bakura's face.

“And that's a bad thing?”

“Maybe not.” Ryou winks.

“It's going to be difficult.”

“What? Having twins?”

“Yeah, and having three other runts running around. The others are going to be busy with their kids which means you'll have to learn to deal with taking care of vampire babies by yourself.”

“First, I helped take care of Akira and Raia. I think I know a little about caring for an immortal child. And second, you are going to help me. There's no way you are not helping with these kids. They are yours.” Ryou rubs his hands over Bakura's.

“I guess I'll help.” Bakura rolls his eyes as he stands up.

“No, you will help.” Ryou reaches out to pinch Bakura's bare knee.

“Ouch! Hey! Fine, I'll help.” He rubs the sore spot on his knee. “I think I liked you better when you were afraid of me.” He mumbles.

“Well, that was before I got to know you. Before I spent pretty much every minute of the day with you because you didn't want to risk me getting kidnapped again.” The small white haired boy smiles up at the vampire.

“Whatever. Ready to get to the pool?”

“Yep, help me up.” Ryou reaches out to grab Bakura's arms as his mate's strong hands lift him up by his under arms. “Thank you, Kura.” He leans over to kiss Bakura's cheek.

“No problem, now come on. I want to go swimming.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

&# 8220;Raia, come here.” Malik calls from inside the pool, his thin arms resting on the side. “You want to come join daddy?”

“Is Zemti coming?” The little pale blonde boy ask as he sits in front of Malik in his little black swim shorts.

“I don't know. Zemti, you want to come in?” Malik looks over toward a table where Zemti, Hikaru, and Marik are sitting.

“Huh?” Zemti looks over his shoulder. “Oh, I don't know. Why?”

“Raia was asking. Why don't you boys come on in?”

“Sounds good.” Marik walks over and picks up his son. “Want in there with daddy?”

“Yeah!” Raia reaches out to the smaller pale blonde in the water as Marik hands him down to Malik. “I like the pool.” The little boy splashes some of the cool water on to Malik.

“You remember how to swim?” Marik moves them away from the edge as Marik, Zemti, and Hikaru lower themselves into the pool.

“Yep.” Raia pushes away from his dad, kicking his feet under the water he moves his arms and swims over to Zemti. His little arms wrapping around his brother's neck. “See. I can do it.”

“I see that. My baby is becoming my big boy.” Malik swims over to Marik, turning to rest his back against his mate's chest.

“I'm not a baby. I'm five years old.” Raia holds up one of his little hands, all five fingers stretched out.

“Don't worry, Raia. Dad still treats me as a baby and I'm nineteen.” Zemti smiles as Raia swims away from him to the edge.

“Same thing goes for my dad.” Hikaru dunks under the water, coming back up with his normally spiky hair dropping.

“Uncle Ryou! Come swim with us.” Raia calls as Ryou and Bakura enter the large white room.

“I'm coming. Sorry it took so long. Had to stop on the stairs.” Ryou blushes as he makes his way to the underwater steps.

“Completely understandable. And don't worry the others haven't shown up yet either.” Malik watches as Ryou carefully enters the water, Bakura right behind him.

“Uncle Ryou, you know how to swim?” Raia moves through the water over to the white haired boys.

“Yep, your daddy and Uncle Bakura taught me.” Ryou opens his arms to the little boy who swims into them.

“Cool.” Raia looks over Ryou's shoulder at Bakura before whispering in the small white haired boy's ear. “Uncle Bakura scares me.”

The three vampires in the pool laugh as the little voice travels to their sharpened ears. Bakura growls slightly as he rolls his eyes before swimming to the deep end of the pool.

“What's so funny?” Malik looks around at the smiling group.

“Our little Raia thinks Bakura is scary.” Marik swims over to take his son from Ryou as the other boy goes to stand by Malik at the edge. “Well, sweet heart, you aren't the only one. Many, many people think the same thing. But if Uncle Bakura even dares to hurt you, I'll beat him up. Got it?”

“Yeah, poppa.” Raia pushes away from Marik to swim over to Zemti. “Can we go to the deep end?”

“Dad?” Zemti looks over at Malik.

“Okay, but keep an eye on him. No horse playing.”

“Got it.” Zemti, Raia, and Hikaru starts to the other end of the pool.

“My baby is growing up too fast.” Malik says watching them.

“Gonna try for another one any time soon?” Ryou leans back on the cool side of the pool.

“Probably. What do you say Marik?”

“I would love to have a load of sons. But I guess once we get ahead of Yami we can stop.” He smiles as he swims to Malik's side.

“Now I don't know about that. I still can't figure out how little Yugi keeps popping them out.”

“Popping what out?” Yugi asks as he enters the white room followed closely by Mikado and Yami, Akira curled up in his father's arms.

“Kids.” Ryou watches as Yugi sits on the side of pool, his small legs dropped in the cool water.

“I can't believe it either.” Yugi smiles as Akira is handed to him before Yami jumps into the pool, the crystal clear water splashing on those around.

“Hey, watch it.” Malik wipes the water out of his eyes.

“Sorry.” Yami says as he resurfaces, swimming over to Yugi.

“Where are you going, Mikado?” Yugi watches his son swimming away.

“I'm gonna do some laps in the deep end.”

“What was he doing in the lab so late?” Marik looks over at Yami.

“He wasn't in the lab. I found him in the ballroom with Duke.” Yami rolls his eyes.

“I can't believe those two got together.” Malik leans his head on his mate's shoulder.

“Yeah, well if that idiot hurts my son he is going to pay.”

“A little protective, Yami?” Malik giggles.

“I don't think I'll ever like anyone who dates my sons.”

“Not even Drake?” Marik wraps an arm around Malik's waist under water.

“Drake is a different story. I know he would never hurt Saiai. Seto would kill him first.”

“Why would my father kill me?” Drake asks as steps into the water with Saiai next to him.

“Because you hurt Saiai.” Yugi speaks, his small arms wrapped around his son as the small purple eyes watch the water.

“He hasn't hurt me.” Saiai swims over to stand by his father, the two almost identical.

“I was saying if he ever did.”

“But I wouldn't.”

“Enough of this. Where is Joey and Seto?” Ryou rubs his belly under the water.

“Dad had to stop on the stairs for a minute.”

“I had to do the same thing.”

“Father is getting worried. He thinks dad should be put on bed rest for the remaining pregnancy.” Drake moves over behind his tri-colored lover, wrapping his arms around his waist.

“Yeah, but I bet Joey is just too stubborn.” Malik waves over at the door. “Hey you two.”

A bare chest Seto walks over to the pool with a blushing Joey in his arms. The tall brunette easily carries his mate into the water and over to the others before letting him stand on his own two feet.

“Why the blushing, Joey?” Ryou asks.

“I told him I could walk. But no, he has to carry me.” Joey slaps his mate's arm.

“I didn't want you to strain yourself on all those stairs.”

“Good thing your mate is a vampire or he wouldn't be able to carry you at all.” Marik motions to the large belly under the water.

“I don't care how big I get. As long as I have another wonderful son.” Joey sticks his tongue out at Marik.

“Why we hating Marik?”

“Oh! Kura, don't do that!” Ryou holds his belly while glaring at his wet mate beside him. “When did you get here?”

“I just swam over.” Bakura wraps an arm around Ryou's shoulders as he leans back on the edge of the pool.

“Pool!” All eyes move over to the little boy in Yugi's lap.

“You want to come swimming, Akira?” Yami reaches up as the little boy holds his arms out to his father.

“Poppy, swim!” Akira splashes his hands in the pool as Yami holds him to his chest.

“I'm going to go swim some laps.” Saiai moves off to join Mikado, Zemti, and Hikaru at the other end of the pool.

“Me too.” Drake calls over his shoulder.

“Those two are almost joined together.” Yugi chuckles as he turns his purple eyes to watch his son and mate.

“They're in love.” Joey leans back on Seto's chest.

“Yeah, you can't blame them for wanting to spend all their time toget…Raia! What are you doing over here by yourself?” Malik reaches out to take hold of his son.

“They weren't paying me attention.” Raia buries his pale blonde hair in Malik's neck.

“Well, you should of called one of us. You haven't been swimming long enough to be on your own.” Malik rubs his son's back.

“Kitten, he is a vampire. He doesn't breathe so what are you so worried about?”

“Are you not worried about your son?” Malik glares over at his mate.

“Of course I am. I just don't see the big deal.”

“Just go tell Zemti I want to have a talk with him later.” Malik swims over to Yami and Yugi, the two little boys start splashing each other with water and giggling.

“Sounds like you're in trouble.” Bakura snickers.

“Mind your own business, Bakura.” Marik states before swimming off to talk to his older son.
