The Torture

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Keith opened the door to his home, and stepped in. Since he was an officer, he had a bigger house, and one room used for his…. Illicit activities. It was here that he took Ryou, and dropped him on the floor. The boy yelped, having regained consciousness a few minutes before hand. He stared up fearfully at Keith and backed into the wall.

"I, I'm just a Healer in Training…" Ryou whimpered. "A fledgling. I have no rank among my people. I have no information to offer you!" Keith grinned and closed the door, locking it.

"I think you and I both know that not only is that not completely true, but that I want you for another reason. I will not have Bakura, so I will have you instead." Ryou's eyes widened and he backed into the wall.

"N-no… please…….." He begged, as the demon slowly approached him. Keith launched himself at the angel who screamed and scrambled out of the way. Keith chased him around for a while, but froze when Ryou grabbed his halo and waved it threateningly. Keith was aware of the damage that the halo could do to him, and he backed away.

"Stay back…" Ryou warned, eyes flashing. Keith smirked, and leapt at him. There was another chase around the room that Ryou could only define as a torture chamber. Keith snagged Ryou's ankle with his tail and tripped him, then pounced and pinned him, gripping the wrist of the hand clutching the golden ring.

"Drop it." He snarled, glaring into Ryou's wide eyes. He coiled his tail around and it slithered up Ryou's tunic and between his legs. Ryou screamed as he felt the tip resting against his entrence. Whimpering, he loosened his grip and let the ring fall to the floor. Keith smirked and removed his tail, and then dragged Ryou to his feet.

"Let's get started now, huh?" Keith growled into Ryou's ear, and flicked his tongue in, making the boy whimper.

"Please, no…" Ryou cried, as he was shoved across the room towards a wooden rack. Keith forced his wrists up high above his head and bound his wrists and ankles, leaving Ryou spread eagle, facing the wall. Keith grinned as he looked Ryou up and down.

"All right…" He drawled, pulling up a chair. He watched Ryou trembling in fear, and listened to his sniffles and whimper. "Your name?"

"…. Ryou…" Ryou responded, seeing no harm in telling the demon that.

"The names of your friends who escaped?"

"They escaped?!" Ryou gasped, and then let his head fall forwards with a smile. "Thank Heaven…"

"Their names?!" Keith demanded.

"M-Malik and Yugi." Ryou said.

"Their ranks?"

"Soldiers in training." Ryou replied. Keith grunted.

"What Arch Angel are you under the command of?"

"Pegasus." Ryou said, softly.

"Who is currently the one in charge?" Keith asked.

"Ummmm…."

"Who is the highest ranking angel among all of your people?"

"…………….." Kieth snalred and stood, pulling a whip from the wall.

"Tell me."

"The High Council Elder."

"There is no one higher?"

"……………"

"There is… isn't there?"

"……. No." Ryou's answer was followed by a crack and a shriek as Keith brought the whip down on Ryou's back.

"You lie!"

"No!" Ryou whimpered, and shrieked again, as he was given five lashes.

"You said `No', but the way you said it plainly said `yes' so you may as well tell me who it is."

"There is no one!" Ryou sobbed, and screamed as he received ten lashes. His refusal to talk the next time brought him fifteen, and then, twenty. By the end of the twenty lashes, however, he was crying out the same two words, over and over again.

"THE FOUR!! THE FOUR!! THE FOUR!!!"

"Who are they?"

"……………" Twenty five lashes more left Ryou's back nothing but tattered ribbons of skin.

"Who are The Four?"

"The, the Arch Angels of Araboth……." Ryou moaned. Keith sat straight up.

"They're only legends!" He snapped. "Michael, Gabriel, Raphael and Uriel do not exist, and nor do the other Angels of Araboth." Ryou groaned slightly.

"If you say so." Ryou panted. Keith snarled and stood, grabbing Ryou's tunic and tearing it away, leaving his entire body exposed.

"You will answer my questions. Other than that, you will be silent!" He snapped, and wrapped his hands around Ryou's waist over his lowest ribs. Keith began to squeeze harshly, increasing the pressure until Ryou began to whimper in pain again. "Who is in charge?"

"M-Michael….." Ryou whimpered. "Gabriel, Uriel and Raphael…….." He threw his head back and screamed as Keith snapped one of his lowest ribs.

"S-Solomon……" Ryou whimpered. "He's the highest aside from the Angels of Araboth……. The highest among we lesser angels."

"The Angels of Araboth do not exist…" Keith snarled, and pressed down on Ryou's broken rib, bringing another scream from the angel. "Lucifer does not exist, and neither do they."

"L-Lucifer…… does not exist…. because…. Michael….. Defeated him……" Ryou groaned, and screamed again when his other rib was snapped. Keith snarled and headed to the door.

"I'm hungry… You can sit there and think about whether or not it's good to tell me useless myths. I'll be back." And he left Ryou in the dark.

"They do exist…" Ryou whimpered to himself. "Raphael is… my teacher….." (AN: see the author's note at the end of the story to get the scoop on Araboth)

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Bakura sighed and his tail twitched. He had collapsed from exhaustion hours ago. Who knew what Keith was doing, or had already done to his lover? Bakura moaned slightly at the intense feeling of pain and helplessness in his chest. He couldn't even think of his execution in the morning because he was so worried about Ryou.

"Dante, please…." He whispered. "Please help him. Let his end be peaceful, and painless." It was all he could ask for. As long as Keith had Ryou, the only thing before the young angel, was death…

And back at Keith's house, Ryou was wishing for death. He was screaming, tears streaming down his face as Keith slowly forced a long, thin blade into his side, carefully avoiding his organs. Keith had given up questioning Ryou an hour before, realizing that Ryou really had no information of value. Now, he was simply making him scream in pain. He pulled the blade out, making Ryou whimper and sob again.

"That's a bad wound…." Keith drawled. "Maybe I should cauterize it." Ryou sobbed hearing this. Keith grinned and moved away. Ryou began sobbing hysterically as he heard Keith return. Then, there was a burning pain on his side and a sizzling of flesh and blood. Ryou threw his head back, and screamed. Keith backed off and watched the shuddering in the boy's wings. He smirked as he looked over the damage he had done to the boy.

"First aid time." He said, and grabbed Ryou's left arm. Ryou sobbed as his newly dislocated shoulder throbbed. Keith grinned and jerked, popping everything back into place. He moved to Ryou's broken wrist, and did the same.

"Normally….." He snarled in the boy's ear. "I'd wait. But I can't any longer. We'll need to get you a healer tomorrow, kid. Trust me. You're gonna need it…" Ryou yelped as Keith slammed his body up against Ryou's, jarring his several broken ribs painfully. He whimpered when he felt Keith's burning arousal pressing into the small of his back.

"We've been like this twice before…" Keith growled, his hot breath caressing Ryou's cheek. "But I was never able to have you. Well, as they say, third time's a charm…."

"Noooo….." Ryou moaned. "Please, no…. Please!" He let his head drop as Keith ground his hips into his backside and run his hands up Ryou's arms.

"You have no idea how much it turns me on to hear you begging me for mercy…" He chuckled, and then released Ryou's wrists, letting him fall limply to the floor. He stepped back and watched the angel cowering on the floor. He kicked him over on the back and stripped himself, sitting on Ryou's chest, making the boy scream again at the pain in his ribs. Keith grinned and used this opportunity to force his length into Ryou's mouth, forcing him to deep-throat him from the start. Ryou gagged and thrashed, trying to escape the smothering pressure. Keith groaned and grabbed Ryou's head to hold it still, and began roughly thrusting into the boy's mouth. Ryou clawed at his sides, which was the only part of Keith he could reach. Keith grinned and began trailing his tail up and down Ryou's body. Ryou screamed around the thick hard flesh in his mouth.

"That feels good…" Keith growled, ready to cum. "Do it again…." And he slid his tail between the boy's legs to rub against his entrance. Ryou jumped and sobbed, letting another scream loose. But the scream was cut short when Keith came with a gasp, spurting thick seed into the angel's throat. He moved away and watched the angel gag and vomit.

"That was the hard part…" Keith chuckled. "Now, I'll do the work." Ryou jerked at this, and scrambled away. Keith grinned and grabbed the angel by the hair. Ryou cried out as he was dragged across the room and forced onto his knees. Keith tied his wrists tightly behind his back, leaving a long piece of rope free. He stood and tied the rope to a hook on the ceiling, making the angel yelp as his arms were jerked up painfully. Ryou sat up to ease the pain in his arms. Keith chuckled and tied another rope tightly around the angel's neck.

"Not that easy…" He sneered, and pulled the rope, securing it to a hoop on the floor, forcing Ryou to bend over. Ryou whimpered as his arms throbbed from the painful position as well as their current injuries. Keith circled the angel, watching him trying to shield himself with his wings.

"Your wings…" He snapped. "Drop them if you don't want to lose them." Ryou squeaked and slowly let his wings fall limp on the floor. "Good choice." Keith said, and continued to circle the fledgling. Finally, he stopped and knelt behind the boy. He bent over him and Ryou moaned helplessly as he felt the head of Keith's erection rubbing at his entrance.

"Are you a virgin?" He hissed into Ryou's ear. A shudder rippled through his thin frame as the demon's hands stroked his body, finally moving down to grip his length. Ryou's head fell forwards with a sob as Keith began to massage his lax member.

"Stop…" Ryou moaned. "Please, stop!!"

"Mmmm…. Yes….." The demon groaned, lustfully. "Cry…. Beg… plead…. I want to hear it all……" Ryou bit his lip at this. "Scream." Keith whispered into his ear, and then began to force his way inside of the wounded angel. "Scream for me…." And Ryou did.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Okay, so what's the plan?" Otogi said. Ahmose took the paper that they had brought him and began scribbling on it.

"The Gates of Hell are here." He said, and Joey knelt to see better as Marik and Yami peered over the ex-councilman's shoulder. "The secret passage is here."

"Your people will be furious for giving us this information." Seto said as he and Tristan also knelt, and Yugi, Malik and Otogi followed their example. Ahmose looked at him.

"My people are corrupt, close-minded fools. As was I, Bakura, Marik and Yami. It took your angels to open our eyes. Our people are wrong. Your kind is not a horrible enemy that must be destroyed. You are the complete opposite. For the first time, I have seen my kind for what we truly are, and I am ashamed to be one of them." Marik and Yami nodded their agreement.

"Anyway, back to this…" Tristan said, poking the map.

"Of course. Now, here are the soldier housings, and here are officer housings. Keith's home is here. If Ryou is alive, that is where he will be."

"Poor Ryou…." Malik moaned, and Marik laid his tail on Malik's shoulder and coiled it gently around his throat. Malik smiled up at his demon lover briefly.

"Now, this is the tower. It is our base of government, and where the council will be, and the square before it is where Bakura will be publicly executed. He will be in the prison, which is here. As you can see, this will not be easy. Our best bet is to sneak in through the secret passage. Our priority is Bakura. He will die at dawn. Ryou will be dead or alive, and we cannot change that. What we do not want to do is waste time going to his rescue and end up losing Bakura. If we save Bakura, Ryou will still be there. As long as we get him out. Our timing must be perfect; we are only going to get one chance at this."

"Let's do it." Seto said, standing.

"Not that easy. We need a distraction." Ahmose said, and also stood, smirking. "Otogi… That is where you come in." The green eyed angel blinked.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Muffled sobs came from the angel as Keith continued forcing himself on the angel, over and over again. Ryou was gagged, when he didn't have Keith's erection stuffed down his throat. Keith had been at this for hours. He would do all he could, then disappear for awhile only to return for more later. Ryou had lost count of many times Keith had filled him with his release, and how many times he had been forced climax as well. Ryou had cursed his body a hundred times over as it betrayed him again and again. But while Bakura could pleasure him by taking him, all he felt with Keith was pain. It was the most intense agony Ryou had ever felt, and all he wanted was sweet release. He dreamed of losing consciousness and waking up in Bakura's arms, all of this nothing but a nightmare. But he knew this was not a dream, so all he dared to hope for was death.

Ryou whimpered as he felt Keith's hot release fill him and run down his legs. The demon stumbled back, exhausted. He smirked and sat next to Ryou, kissing his face and running his tongue over his body. Ryou sobbed weakly when he felt Keith's tail slide into him and begin to massage his inner walls. He twitched and moaned when Keith began rubbing at the one spot that gave Ryou any form of pleasure no matter how unwanted it was. He began harshly pumping Ryou's penis, growling vulgar things into the boy's ear. He continued this until he forced Ryou to climax again. Ryou wept silently as he knelt there, wounded and violated, kneeling in a pool of his own blood, and his and Keith's semen. The sticky substances coated his legs and left him feeling filthier than he ever though possible.

"You know…" Keith said suddenly, standing. "I'd better shower and get going. It's almost time for Bakura's execution, and I don't want to miss it." Ryou raised his eyes, and tears cascaded down his face. "How about this…" Keith offered. "Since I'm such a nice guy, I'll bring you his head so that you can kiss his cold dead mouth one last time." Ryou gave a mortified sob and went limp, crying helplessly. "I thought you'd like that…." And the demon left.

Ryou continued crying his eyes out. He tried fighting against the ropes around his wrists and neck, but he was too weak and the pain was too much. All he could do was wait for his tormentor to return and plead with The Four to save Bakura.

Bakura…. That name sent his heart and mind in ever direction. Grief for the lover he was losing, pain because he could not save him, anger because the bad guys were winning, and joy, knowing that he had found his soul mate and was able to share his most precious treasure with him. He had given Bakura his heart and soul, and offered him his body and virginity. And Bakura had accepted them. It was a small victory to Ryou that Bakura had taken his virginity and not Keith. And for a few hours, Ryou had been truly happy.

But Keith had come in and ruined everything. He had ruined Ryou's life. If he survived, he would never be the same. But the truth was, he didn't want to survive. His last thought as he lost consciousness was `Bakura, I am eternally yours……'

Ooooh, I'm an evil authoress……. Next Chapter: The Invasion

Okay, I had meant to explain all of this in chapter one but I totally forgot. -_-* Ryou and the other angels in this fic are lesser angels. Here's the deal. According to the Christian and maybe Jewish religion, there are four Arch Angels. First is Michael, who stands behind the throne of God. Then there is Gabriel, who sits at God's left hand. Then there is Raphael, who is kinda like the patron saint of science, medicine and healing, so Ryou looks to him. The fourth is Uriel, and he is the Angel of Repentance. He is also possibly the angel who wrestled with Jacob.

According to the Muslim relgion (I think) there Are Three more ArchAngels. The first is Metatron, who is possibly the most powerful Arch Angel, and there are hints that he may be Enoch (I think). Then there is Raguel, who is the Diciplinarian among the angels. Sariel, also known as Remiel, is the Grim Reaper, leads the souls to judgement, may have fallen with Lucifer, and may be a double agent between Heaven and Hell.

There are 7 levels of Heaven according to Islam, I think. They are:

1 Shamayim- ruled by Gabriel, curtain between Heaven and Earth

2 Raquia- ruled by Raphael, where the souls await judgment

3 Shehaquim- ruled by Anahel, where the saved enjoy eternity, and the damned suffer the eternal wrath of God. Basically our vision of Heaven and Hell

4 Machen- ruled by Michael, the Heavenly Jerusalem and the Garden of Eden

5 Machon- ruled by Sandalphon, Metatron's twin, and it is the prison of the Fallen

6 Zebul- Zachiel, basically, it is the "Angel University" For my fic, we may consider this the Heaven that Ryou has come from.

7 Araboth- ruled by Cassiel, and is the Home of God on his Devine Throne.

For this fic, I am calling all the angels mentioned above the Angels of Araboth, and this is where they reside. The Four are Micheal, Gabriel, Raphael and Uriel and they are the rulers of the Angels of Araboth. They are kind of like the gods of the lesser angels of Zebul. If anyone reigns over them, (the one divinity, spoken of in chapter one, basically God) the lesser angels are not aware of this higher power. The Four are the most sacred, and they will not speak of them, especially around demons. To do so is the highest level of treason, so after this chapter, Ryou will really be in deep shit with the angels.

FINAL LIST OF THE 14 ANGELS OF ARABOTH:

Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, Metatron, Sariel, Remiel, Raguel, Anahel, Sandalphon, Azrael, Zachiel, Astaroth and Cassiel

I hope this cleared stuff up for you, and if you read it all, GO YOU!!!! ^_^
