Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Living with a Vampire ❯ The Vampires' Downfall ( Chapter 6 )

Recap: Yugi was taken to Pegasus' hideout where his blood was going to be used to bring back the Dark Vampire Lord. Yugi was under a sleeping spell to prevent mental communication with Yami. The vampires put a cloacking spell up so that Yami, Bakura and Kaiba wouldn't find the place until it was too late. Fate was kind twice. The connection between Yami and Yugi was back, and Ryou found the place where Yugi was being held. However, they were too late as the ritual was complete.

Chapter 6: The Vampires' Downfall

"We're too late," Kaiba said.
Pegasus and the vampires turned and saw Kaiba, Bakura and...Yami!
"How are you here? I broke the puzzle," Shadow said.
"Yugi's bond with me is too strong. It is more than strong enough for me to survive in case the puzzle is broken," Yami said.
Then the light intensified. After a few seconds, it was gone. Six vampires stood, one towering above the others.
"It is good to see you alive my king," Fear said.
"As it is you. Well done my subjects," the Vampire Lord said.
Fear, the other vampires and Pegasus bowed to the Lord. The Vampire Lord saw Yami, Bakura and Kaiba. He quickly grabbed Yugi.
"Retreat now unless you want to see your young friend die in front of your eyes," he said.
Bakura and Kaiba were going to try and get Yugi away from the Vampire Lord when Yami stopped them.
"Stop. The risk is too great. We have no choice but to fall back," Yami said.
"As you wish my Pharaoh," Kaiba said as Bakura agreed.
Bakura, Kaiba and Yami vanished and reappeared at the park.
//Don't worry Yugi. We'll think of something//
Yugi was calm. He knew that Yami would come through for him. The other vampires teleported to the city. An unsuspecting person came by and was sucked dry by one of the vampires. The others saw his and ran for cover.
"This is going to be fun," an elite vampire said.
The other vampires agreed as they flew through the air in search for prey. Back in the park, Yami, Bakura and Kaiba sensed the vampires' presence in the city.
"We've got to do something. The people are in danger of being killed," Bakura said.
"I know Bakura, but we can't just barge in on them. Especially because of all the people around," Yami said.
"Yami's right Bakura. We would be putting more people in danger. Let's head back to the game shop for now," Kaiba said.
The headed for the shop and got there in half an hour. To their great relief, everyone there was fine.
"Yami, what happened?" Ryou asked.
"We were too late. The Vampire Lord was released. We had to retreat or else he would've killed Yugi. Now the vampires are terrorizing the city," Yami responded.
"What are ya going to do?" Joey asked.
"We don't know yet," Bakura responded.
"Can't you use the tri attack on them?" Ryou asked.
"It's too dangerous with all the people around," Kaiba responded.
"I know. What if we could lure the vampires to a secluded spot? We could use it then, but at half power. Those vampires need to be stopped," Yami suggested.
"What do you mean by the tri attack at half power?" Tristan asked.
"The first time that we used the tri attack, it was only at 1% power (A/N: Sound familiar? If you have watched the fight between Frieza and Goku from Dragon Ball Z, you will know where this is going.). Using it at 50% power will kill the vampires and the elites," Kaiba responded.
"But how are you going to lure them away?" Te`a asked.
"I can help. I want to help you save Yugi," Ryou said.
"No Ryou, it's too dangerous," Solomon said.
"It's not a bad suggestion. Ryou helped us found Yugi," Bakura said.
Meanwhile, the death told had reached 50 so far. The vampires Lord had joined his subjects in the feeding. Pegasus was at the hideout to make sure Yugi didn't try to escape. Every station showed the horrific event taking place.
"We have to stop them and soon. Those poor people are at their mercy," Ryou said.
"I know Ryou, and here's how we'll do it. You will get their attention and have them chase you. Bakura will aid you to make sure that they don't get you," Yami began.
"You and I will then lead them to the outskirts of the city. There is an abandoned warehouse there. Yami and Kaiba will lay in wait. Once we lure the vampires there, we'll use the tri attack at half power and destroy the vampires," Bakura added.
"Okay, let's go," Ryou said.
Bakura picked up Ryou, and he, Yami and Kaiba flew off. Then they split into teams of two. Yami and Kaiba teleported to the warehouse while Bakura and Ryou headed for the city. Half an hour later, they saw the vampires. Bakura landed in an alley and put Ryou down.
"It's up to you for this part," Bakura said.
Ryou nodded and casually walked through the city. The vampires saw him.
"He's one of the young one's friends. Let's kill him too," Darkness said.
The vampires started to approach him. The people watched in utter disbelief as Ryou just walked like there was nothing going on. Suddenly, Bakura flew by and scooped him up. They flew away with the vampires following.
What Bakura, Ryou or the vampires didn't know was that they were being followed by the Air Force. There were 15 jets following on stealth mode. The pilots had orders to destroy all the vampires, not knowing that Bakura, Kaiba and Yami were on their side. They led the Army's ground troops.
Three hours later, Bakrua, Ryou, the vampires, the Air Force and the Army arrived at the abandoned warehouse. The troops held back, waiting for an opportunity to strike. They watched as the the vampires entered, unaware of the halfling's plan.
"Now, we get rid of both of you," an elite vampire said.
"Not if we have anything to say about it," a voice said.
The vampires saw Yami and Kaiba come from out of the shadows. Ryou and Bakura joined them. Yami, Bakura and Kaiba formed a triangle around Ryou and held hands. They started glowing. The glow intensified as they prepared to use the tri attack at half power. The vampires felt the increased power and tried to escape. Kaiba paralyzed them.
The vampires were frozen as Yami and Bakura continued to power up. A few minutes later, they were ready. Bakura gave the vampires a devastating energy beam. The vampires screamed out in pain. Then Yami gave them a more powerful taste of electrical fire. The vampires were turned to dust after that blow.
"That takes care of them," Ryou said.
"Yeah, but the Vampire Lord is still alive," Bakura said.
"And Pegasus must be with Yugi," Yami added.
"Let's regroup," Bakura said.
They nodded and left the building, only to be surrounded by the Army. The tanks surrounded the whole building.
"Back away from the boy," the sergeant said.
"Why should they back away? These three are my friends Yami, Bakura and Kaiba," Ryou said.
The troops were amazed. They didn't believe Ryou. They didn't see how he could be friends with three vampires.
"They're blood-sucking demons," the sergeant said.
"We are not blood suckers anymore," Yami said.
"But how do you survive without blood?" the sergeant asked.
"We can because we're not all vampire. We're also half human, making us halflings," Yami responded. "Now if you'll excuse us, we have to save our friend Yugi," he added.
Bakura held onto Ryou as he, Yami and Kaiba teleported to the game shop.
"How did your plan go?" Solomon asked.
"Perfectly," Kaiba responded.
"Now we have to deal with the Vampire Lord," Yami said.
"How will ya?" Joey asked.
"We'll have to go to the museum to find that out," Kaiba responded.
"What's important about the museum?" Tristan asked.
"There's a vampire section there. That section deals with how to deal with the Vampire Lord. We'll have to use our tri attack a different way to kill him," Kaiba responded.
