Engulfed in Shadows
Chapter Two
by Ravenx


“I hate this party.” Malik whispers in Joey's ear.

The two stand by the stage in the Ballroom, the various candles around the room flicker on the dark red walls. Polished, dark, hard wood floors are being danced on by dozens of vampire couples. Long tables are against the walls on each side of the stage filled with sweet treats and cool liquid. The heavy burgundy drapes on the window behind the large four chairs on the stage are open to reveal a starless night, the moon shining brightly in the dark shy.

“I'm not disagreeing.”

“If one more vampire `accidentally' brushes my butt I'm telling Marik.” The pale blonde crosses his arms over his chest.

“Where is Marik, anyway? For that matter, where's Seto?” Honey colored eyes search through the moving bodies filling the large room.

“I don't know. I don't recognize anyone.”

“Neither do I.” Joey fidgets with the bottom of his sweater.

“Have you even see the others?”

“Nope. Wait…there's Yugi.” Joey points into the crowd at a tri-colored mop of hair heading toward them.

“Hey guys.” The smallest mate squeezes between two vampires to make it over to his friends. “The party is very…crowded.”

“Yep. Where's Yami?” Malik moves aside to allow Yugi to stand between him and Joey.

“Talking to someone about something. I don't know. I got bored.”

“Remind me to beat our kids when we get out of here.” Joey smiles sweetly.

“They just wanted us to have fun.” Yugi pouts.

“Yes, but are you having fun?”

“No.”

“Then this was a bad idea.”

“But it looks like Yami was having a good time.”

“Then I vote we should have stayed with the kids and let our mates come here.” Malik raises his hand in the air.

“I second that vote.” Joey's hand shoots up into the air.

“Guys, come on. Give it a chance.” Yugi swats both of his friend's hands down.

“We have been here for two hours. And half that time has been spent standing here with Malik.”

“And getting my butt touched by half the vampires in this room.” Malik pouts.

“Well, maybe we can leave in a little while. Just let the guys have their fun.”

“Looks like Ryou is having a good time.” Joey motions toward the end of the stage.

The other two mates look around him to find Ryou sitting on the stage with Bakura between his legs. The two white haired boys are in the middle of a deep kiss. Pale hands tangle in Bakura's thick hair. Bakura's fingers play in between the small stripes of leather running along the sides of Ryou's thin legs.

“Those two can't stay away from each other for more than one minute.” Malik rolls his eyes.

“Are you sure they can last that long?” Yugi giggles.

“Come on, lets go interrupt.” Joey moves along the stage followed by the other two until they are right beside the two lovers. “Are you two having fun?”

“We were until you showed up.” Bakura growls as his lips trail down his mate's neck.

“Kura, behave.” Ryou pops the back of his lover's head.

“I am behaving.” Bakura nips at the smaller white haired boy's ear lobe.

“Mmm…no you're not.” Light brown eyes close as Ryou drops his head back to allow Bakura access to his neck.

“How can you two be enjoying it here?” Yugi asks from behind Joey.

“I'm just enjoying being with Kura.” Ryou giggles as his mate's fingers brush across his bare lower back. “Where are the other guys at?”

“Don't know.” Malik moves to the other side of the couple.

“Then why don't you go find them.” Bakura growls.

“Kura.” Ryou warns.

“What?”

“Stop being mean.” Ryou lays his head down on the white haired vampire's shoulder, his brown eyes looking over at Joey and Yugi. “I found Seto.”

Joey looks behind him to find his tall brunette lover easily sliding through the crowd and over to the group. His arms wrap around the sandy blonde as soon as he reaches them.

“Hey, puppy.” Seto leans down to kiss Joey's cheek.

“Hey, baby. Where have you been?”

“Just talking with some people. Have you guys been having fun?”

“No. Its boring. I want to get out of here.” Joey leans back against Seto.

“Okay, I think it is getting a little boring. As soon as we get a hold of Yami and Marik we'll leave. Sound good?”

“Yep.”

“You need me?” Yami sneaks up behind Yugi, wrapping his long arms around his small mate's shoulders.

“Yeah, we want to leave.” Yugi pouts up at his mate.

“Really.”

“We're bored. You can stay but I think I want to go see what the kids are doing.”

“That's alright. I'm kinda getting tired of talking to some of these guys anyway. You want to go to, Malik?”

“Yep. I'm tired of getting my butt touched.”

“Who's touching your butt?” A growl comes from behind Malik causing the pale blonde to jump and turn around.

“Marik! I…I didn't know you were there.”

“Who is touching your butt?”

“I…I don't know.” Malik steps back as Marik's pale violet eyes swirl with silver. “Calm down.”

“How can I be calm when someone is touching my mate?”

“Don't worry about it. Let's just go see the kids.” Malik smiles sweetly at his mate.

“Fine but you tell me if anyone touches you again.” Marik leans down and kisses his small lover's forehead.

“Okay.”

“How are we going to leave? Do we tell them or what?” Ryou asks, his head still resting on Bakura's shoulder as his mate rubs his back.

“No, we'll just sneak out through the door by the stage.” Seto hops up onto the stage, bending down to grab Joey's hands he helps the sandy blonde up.

Yami moves closer to the stage, his strong arms lifting his mate up. His dark purple eyes look around at the crowd of dancing vampires before jumping up on stage and slowly moving toward the door hiding on the side of the stage. Bakura is next one up on the stage, stopping when he sees Ryou isn't moving.

“What's wrong?”

“Aren't you going to help me up like they did?” Ryou turns a pout toward his lover.

“You're already on the stage.”

“You could at least help me up.”

“Fine.” Rolling his eyes, Bakura lifts Ryou up by his under arms. “Happy?”

“Yes.” Turning around the smaller white haired boy stands on tiptoes to kiss his mate. “Thank you.”

“Whatever.” The two move toward the others near the side door, Malik and Marik following behind them.

Seto opens the door and stands aside letting the others enter the small room before he follows. Shutting the door he turns only to bump into Marik's back.

“Why are you standing there? Go on.”

“I can't. You're son won't let anyone move.”

“Huh?” Seto looks over the pale blonde's shoulder to see his youngest son standing in front of the door leading to all of their bedrooms.

“Brayden, what are you doing, baby?” Joey walks over to his son.

“I'm here to redirect you all down to the pool.” The tall brunette points to the door leading down to the basement.

“Why?” Yugi speaks up from the middle of the group.

“You'll just have to wait and see. Now go, all of you.” Brayden pushes them all to the door.

“You boys haven't done anything bad, have you?” Seto asks as the two brunettes follow everybody down the stairs.

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

“ ;Zemti, help.” Raia carefully tries to make his way to the bar near the right of the door, his arms are filled with different shaped boxes towering over his head.

“Can't.”

“Akira, Hikaru, Brennan, Athan! Someone! Help!”

“I'm here, I'm here.” Akira takes several of the boxes from the pale blonde. “Better?”

“Much.”

“Kurai, get away from that cake.” Akira yells to his little brother who is standing on one of the benches by the pool.

“But I want some.”

“Wait until father and the others get here. Hikaru, can't you keep an eye on him?”

“I'm busy helping Zemti with the banner.”

“Saiai, watch Kurai.” Akira calls to his oldest brother as he reaches the bar, placing the boxes behind it.

“We're watching Adrian.” Drake calls back.

“They can't look after two?” Akira mumbles.

“They're new to parenthood, give them a break.” Raia sits his boxes down on the bar and watches as the tri-colored boy puts them behind the bar with the others.

“Where are Athan and Brennan?”

“I think they're hiding behind the curtain so they don't have to do any work.” Raia points toward a large dark blue curtain hanging from the ceiling in the corner to the left of the door, the thick fabric bunched on the cool white and blue tiles.

“Are you guys hiding over here?” Akira pushes the curtain back to find the twins leaning against the white wall.

“You two could help us.” Raia comes up behind the other vampire.

“Didn't want to.” Athan balances the tip of a small dagger on his finger, his dark brown eyes watching as the rubies and emeralds shine in the light.

“You guys seem to be handling it fine.” Brennan leans his head on his older brother's shoulder as his lighter brown eyes look upon the dagger.

“Get your butts up and help.” Akira growls.

“Leave us alone.” Athan rolls his eyes.

“Get off your lazy asses and help us.”

“Raia!”

The pale blonde jumps around, his pale violet eyes as large as saucers.

“Dad! I didn't know you were here.” Raia smiles innocently.

“You know I don't like you talking like that.” Malik points his finger at his youngest.

“I know. Sorry, I just thought Brayden was going to warn us when you guys were here.” He shoots an evil look at the tall brunette in the back of the group trying to hide his laughter.

“They were done before I thought.”

“What have you guys done?” Yugi looks in amazement around the pool area.

The white walls are decorated with balloons and paper ornaments. A large banner hangs on the back wall with the words `Happy Birthday' written in dark blue on it.

“Throwing you a surprise party with your sons.” Mikado comes around the pool to kiss his dad on the cheek. “Have fun at the party upstairs?”

“Don't ask.” Yugi rolls his eyes.

“Grammie!” Adrian runs across the cool floor and into Yugi's arms.

“Hey, pumpkin.”

“Baby, don't run in here.” Saiai and Drake jog over toward the group at the door.

“I can't believe you guys did this for us.” Joey looks around.

“Can we swim now?” Brennan asks from the floor.

“Yes you little…”

“Raia.” Malik warns.

“Fine.” Raia holds up his hands, walking over toward the bar with Akira following.

“But we don't have our shorts.” Seto ruffles the hair of his grandson in Yugi's arms.

“That's what the curtain is for. So you guys can change, your shorts are in there.” Drake pulls his white tank top over his head leaving him in nothing but dark gray shorts. “Now get dressed so we can swim.”

“Sounds good. We'll go first.” Joey pulls Seto behind the curtain. “You two want to move?”

“We're going, we're going.” Athan rolls his eyes as he gets up, Brennan following him.

“Hey, babies.” Ryou wraps an arm around both of his boy's slender waist, their white haired heads laying on his shoulders.

“Hey dad.” Brennan kisses Ryou's cheek.

“That my dagger?” Bakura stands behind his family.

“Yep. Didn't think you'd mind.” Athan moves where he stands in front of Ryou, his chin on his shoulder, his dark brown eyes looking up at his father.

“Next time ask.” Bakura takes the dagger from his son.

“Sure.”

“Why didn't you two help them set up?” Ryou kisses the top of his sons' heads.

“Didn't want to.” Brennan wraps an arm around his dad's waist.

“They handled it.” Athan watches as his father toys with the silver dagger.

“You should have helped.”

“Your sons are just like you, Bakura.” Marik chuckles from his place next to the small family.

“What's that mean?” The tall white haired vampire narrows his eyes at the pale blonde.

“They don't want to do anything. Just sit around and goof off.”

“Marik, stop.” Ryou pouts.

“It's the truth Ryou.”

“I'm warning you, Marik.” Bakura growls.

“What are you going to do?”

“Marik, stop. Don't start anything. This is a party for us.” Malik pulls his mate away from the white haired boys. “Come on, Joey and Seto are done, we'll change next.”

The two disappear behind the dark blue curtain as Joey and Seto step out. Joey wears a tight pair of light blue shorts while Seto has a baggy pair of dark red shorts on.

“I hate that vampire.” Bakura growls.

“Don't start anything Bakura.” Yami warns, Adrian now in his arms.

“He shouldn't talk about my boys like that.”

“What is with you two lately? All you do is fight.” Joey leans back on Seto's bare chest.

“He has a problem with keeping his big mouth shut.”

“Let's just forget about it. Come on, puppy, let's swim.” Seto pulls his mate toward the pool, Brayden and Akira following them.

“Where's Duke?” Yugi looks toward Mikado.

“In our room. This is just for parents and sons, no outside lovers. You guys go change, I'm going to play pool anybody want to play?”

“I'll play with you.” Saiai follows his younger brother around the pool.

“I wanna watch Poppa.” Adrian reaches out toward Drake.

“Okay. We'll be over there.” Drake takes his son from Yami and follows his lover.

“Next.” Malik smiles as he comes out from behind the curtain with dark purple shorts on, Marik follows with a matching pair of shorts.

“Come on, we're going swimming.” Marik drags his mate toward the pool.

“Our turn.” Yami and Yugi move behind the dark blue fabric.

“Its hot.” Athan moves back from his dad to pull off his red shirt leaving him in only a pair of baggy black shorts.

“I know.” Brennan removes his gray tank top, his black baggy shorts hanging low on his hips like his brother's.

“How did the others like your belly ring, dad?” Athan reaches out to toy with the red stone.

“They liked it but I think your father likes it more.” Ryou giggles as he feels a hand reach around his waist to toy with the little ring.

“Oh yeah.” Bakura nips at the back of Ryou's neck.

“See, I told you it would be worth the pain.” Brennan smiles down at his dad.

“I guess.” Ryou rolls his eyes.

“Ryou, you guys can go in now.” Yugi calls as he follows Yami toward the pool.

“Come on, Kura.” The smaller white haired boy drags his mate behind the curtain, his hands moving to remove his two shirts.

“Let me help you.” Bakura smirks as he slowly lifts the red and black material over his mate's head.

Ryou blushes as a pale hand wonders down his bare chest as his shirts fall to the floor. The snap of his black leather pants is undone as Bakura kisses along his exposed neck and collarbone. Ryou's fingers fist in the silky white hair of the vampire, his pants sliding down his legs. Strong hands glide over the curve of his rear end as he lifts his feet one at a time and kicks his pants away.

“Kura, stop. We need to get out there.”

“Later.”

“No. We can have fun tonight.” Ryou pushes Bakura gently away and grabs a pair of blood red shirts from a small shelf and slips them on.

“Take them off.” Bakura growls.

“Nope.” Ryou smiles as he leans up to kiss Bakura's chin, his small hands moving to the hem of the black mesh shirt covering his mate's chest.

Bakura growls as his shirt is pulled over his head, his hair sticking up more than usual. Ryou kisses down his mate's chest, sucking a nipple into his mouth before dropping to his knees. His bright brown eyes shining up into darker brown. His nimble fingers unsnap and unzip the tight black leather pants that encase his lover's lower body. Kissing the soft white hair sticking out of the opening he brings his hands down to untie the thick black combat boots.

“Can't we just skip this and go to bed?” Bakura balances on one foot and then the other as his boots are removed.

“No. The kids went through a lot of trouble to do this. Well, not our kids but the others did.” Ryou smiles as he pulls down the black pants, leaning forward to kiss the tip of Bakura's thick arousal.

“Keep that up and I'll take you right here, right now.”

“Then I had best stop.” Ryou stands with a smile, grabbing a pair of black shorts he throws them at Bakura, giggling when they laid on top of his head.

“Dad, are you two almost done?” Brennan's voice calls through the curtain.

“Yeah, just waiting on your father.”

“I'm done.” Bakura growls as he yanks the shorts up his thin yet strong legs.

Athan runs into the curtain and behind his dad, his hands resting on Ryou's slim hips.

“What did you do?” Ryou looks over his shoulder at his oldest.

“Nothing.” Athan smiles innocently.

“Don't lie to me.” Ryou watches as his other son runs in and hinds behind Bakura. “What did you do?”

“I didn't do anything. It was him.” Brennan points his finger at his brother.

“Where are they?” A soaking wet Raia runs into the curtained area, violet eyes searching for the twins.

“What happened?” Ryou leans back against his oldest son's bare chest.

“Those freaks pushed me into the pool.”

“First off, I didn't do anything. Second, you were going to go swim anyway.” Brennan peaks around Bakura's broad shoulder.

“Not in my shirt. Not at that moment. And certainly not when I had my arms full of soda bottles.” Raia starts toward the twin behind Ryou only to be stopped by a firm chest in his way.

“I'd think twice before messing with my boys.” Bakura growls out.

“They messed with me first.”

“Not my problem.”

“Raia, baby, I'm sorry for what the boys did.” Ryou steps out from behind his mate. “They'll help clean up what ever mess they caused.”

“Dad!”

“But dad!”

“You'll help clean up the mess.” Ryou turns toward his sons, his eyes narrowing.

“Yes, dad.” Athan and Brennan say together, the twins move past Ryou only to get a swat on the backside.

“And behave.”

“Yes, dad.” Athan follows Raia out from behind the curtain.

“But, dad, I didn't even do it. Athan did.” Brennan pouts as he turns back around.

“Just help your brother, okay.”

“Fine.” Brennan pouts as he leaves.

“Why are you making them help?”

“Because they caused the mess.” Ryou turns to his lover.

“Raia could have handled it.”

“Are you wanting to get me in bed later?”

“Yeah.”

“Then I suggest you just stop talking now.” Ryou smiles sweetly as he leaves the curtained area followed closely by Bakura who just rolls his eyes.
