Mariku hissed in pain as he was burned by ANOTHER hotfoot. The castles spinning wasn't
helping His Equalibrium."That stings!" He pressed his back against the wall and thought for a moment.
"Now where would I hide a reluctant love slave?" He
asked himself. "Talking to yourself? They say that's the first sign of insanity you know." A weak voice said
from the shadows. "Who's there!" Mariku hissed. "It's me you dumbass. " "Bakura! There you are. I was
just looking for you." Mariku said as he pressed a spot on the wall.
A door apeared and He began picking the lock. The lock clicked and the door swung open.
Bakura stood up and nodded to him. "Mariku." He said. "Bakura." Bakura's bottom lip trembled. "Seto..?"
"Dead." Bakura looked down. "I knew. I just....didn't want it to be real." he whispered. Mariku took Bakura's
hand. "C'mon. Let's get out of here." The despondent prince only nodded and Mariku dragged him down
the halls.
There was an Evil cackle behinde them. "Now, now. Did you really think that I would let you steal
what I so rightfully earned Mariku?" Came an amussed voice. "Tea." He hissed. Bakura snapped out of his
daze and glared at his captor. "Now. Give him back." Mariku tightened his grip on Bakura's wrist.
"I'm not letting you take what belongs to the kingdom." "I AM NOT A OBJECT! DON'T TREAT ME
LIKE ONE! I'M NOT YOURS TEA! NOR AM I MY SUBJECTS! I...belong to no one now that my heart has
died." Bakura yelled, but his voice fell into a whisper when he reached the last sentence.
"Now's NOT the time for mourning! Go hide somewhere while I take out the Trash." Mariku said
in reply. Bakura glared but nodded. "Kill her." He said before dashing off. Mariku nodded. " A death wish.
A direct order from the Prince. And my own need for vengence against your family. That's incentive enough
for me to condem you, Tea." He said. Tea giggled. "Oh Mariku, don't make me laugh. I'm not that easy to
sway."
Mariku glared at the brunett. "I vow here and know that I WILL kill you!" He yelled before charging
with his sword. When he got close enough he slashed at her. Forming a cut across her pale cheek. A
second later, it began to turn red and blood began to leave the wound. "Damn you! That'll leave a scar!"
She screamed.
Mariku snapped his fingers. "Damn. I ment to cut her head clean off. Must be getting rusty. Oh
well." He put his sword in Pseudo Space and streatched out his fingers on his right hand. "Now. Let's see.
Hoe did it go again? Oh, Right. IRON REAPER, SOUL STEALER!"[1] He cried as he slashed at Tea's
neckwith his hand. "Ha! It did nothing!" she said. "Oh. It's over. You're just to stupid to realize it." Then there
wasa huge cut on her neck. Blood poored out of it, staining the carpet a dark red. "I shall be going now."
Mariku said as he left in search of his Prince.
What he didn't see, and it was something that would come back to haunt him, was a
Koopa Troopa and a Boo lifting up Tea and takeing her out of the castle. She screamed one last tihng
at his retreating back. "YOU'D BETTER HURRY AND SAVE HIM! THE CASTLE WILL COLAPSE IN
2 MINUTES!"
Mariku cursed and sprinted. "Bakura! Let's get out of here!" He yelled as he felt the castle
begining to implode. Bakura Looked at him with narrowed eyes. "What did you do!" He hollared as they ran
down a hallway, whicj was 10 stories up I might add, that was a dead end excepth for a window.
"What now?" Mariku asked looking up at the sky. Bakura thought for a moment and pulled
an umbrella out of Psuedo space. "Use this and jump. It'll stop you from going to fast. When you land I'll
jump after you and you'd better catch me!" He said. Mariku raised an eyebrow in suspicion. "Sounds like
you've done this before." He said. Bakura looked away. "A few times." He whispered before thrusting the
umbrella into Mariku's hands. "Go Quickly!" He hissed. Mariku nodded and jumped out of the open window.
When he got 3/4 of the way down he opened the umbrella and landed safely. "Ok! you jump!"
He yelled to Bakura. Bakura gulped and Closed his eyes before jumping. He Fell quickly and Mariku
barely caught him. "Whew." He sighed in releif before standing up. "Yep. We don't want a Pancake for a
future ruler now do we?" Mariku asked. "MARIKU ISHTAR!" Bakura yelled before hitting his savior.
"And what are you doing here anyway?" He asked. "Well EXCUUUUSE me PRINCE! I was just
saving your Life![2]" Mariku said in a teasing tone. Bakura 'Hmphed'. "Don't I get a reward?" Mariku asked as
they walked away from the castle. "My...Reluctant Eternal Gratitude and..." Bakura Kissed his cheek.
"A thank you." He said before dashing off into the sunset. Mariku blinked. "HEY WAIT UP!" He yelled
fallowing him.

[2] A kiss on the cheek from Bakura if you can tell me where this is from! Bakura: HEY! I didn't agree to
that!
