Act 2


Ryou opened his eyes slowly, and yawned. Warm in the light embrace of Joey, he seen the sun had already started to rise. Then he realized his Yami had rejoined him, and
what had happened last night came flooding back to him.

/Yami?/ he could feel that the former Egyptian was hurt somewhat.

//What?// was the growled reply Ryou got.

/Are... you alright?/

//I'm fine. You're very nosy. Now shut up or I'll....// Bakura left the threat hang, making Ryou's imagination run wild.

/Alright.../ Ryou sighed, and carefully disentangled himself from Joey. Standing up, he noticed Yugi was gone also.

~I wonder where he went....~ Ryou listened intently, and could hear a whispered conversation in the woods to the right of him. ~Sounds like Yugi and his Yami...~

Walking quietly through the underbrush, the conversation got louder until Ryou was sure it was the multicolor haired boy and his Yami. Breaking out into a small clearing, he startled the two inhabitants of it.

"Oh, hello Ryou. Are you alright?" Yugi asked, shifting on the log he was sitting on. Ryou nodded.

"I'm fine. I just..... what were you talking about?" he asked.

"Bakura and the other Seto..." Yami growled. Ryou blinked. "Is Bakura alright?"

"Well, I guess. He wouldn't tell me." Ryou shrugged, then took a deep breath to calm himself. "I'm going back to the camp, alright?"

"Alright, just be careful..." Yami warned, and Ryou headed back.

Curling back up in Joey's arms, the pale haired boy gave the blond a faint kiss, grinnind when Joey smiled slightly in his sleep and tightened his hold around Ryou.

//Ryou?//

/Yes Yami?/

//Why do you love him?// Ryou was shocked at the question. One, because why would he even care, and two because Ryou had half expected to try to break them apart.

/Because... I do..../

//But why?//

/I don't know./ Ryou shifted in Joey's arms slightly. /May I ask, why do you want to know?/

//Just because...//

/Well, alright. Yami.... it isn't because you love me, is it?/ Bakura took a sharp intake of breath as a pang went through his body. He didn't answer the question. He didn't love his hikari, but well.... he had gotten closer to him because of all this. Ryou being raped and all.

~He wouldn't love me anyway. Not after the shit I've put him through...~

//Never mind.//

Ryou laid thinking over what his Yami had said, alright, asked.

~Does he love me?~


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


A dark form with blazing azure eyes hung in a tree surveying the scene. The leaves formed a bowl around him, hiding him from the sleepers below.

~He may love you but he will die today, I can assure you of that. And then you will be mine again.... and this time I won't just dump you. That was stupid of me, to throw away a toy as nice as you my little Ryou.... you'll come back to me...~

Joey awoke when he felt something in his arms shift uncomfortably. Opening his eyes, all he saw was a mass of soft white stuff that smelled like strawberries.

"Ryou?" he asked, burying his head into the boy's hair. The boy shifted and rolled
over so that they were face to face.

"Morning." Ryou smiled. Joey glanced about, and, upon seeing that no one else was awake, kissed the boy gently.

"Morning to you too. How are you and Bakura?"

"Fine..." a look of worry passed over the delicate boy's features.

"What's wrong?" Joey asked in concern.

"Nothing. It's just that I'm worried. There's no doubt that today the dark Seto will strike again." Ryou whispered. Joey hugged Ryou to him.

"Everything will be fine in the end." he whispered back. Ryou smiled, then touched his lips to Joey's. The blonde deepened the kiss, tasting Ryou's mouth slowly and rolling over to bring the other boy on top of him.

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

Yugi and Yami were about to go back to camp, but stopped upon seeing the position Joey and Ryou were in.

/I didn't know they were together./

//Neither did I.//

/I'm glad for them though. Ryou needed someone to hold on to after he was raped... and Joey needed someone to care for./

//You're right Yugi.//

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


"You know someone's watching us." Joey whispered to Ryou as they broke apart.
The boy's brown eyes widened.

"Who?"

"Yugi and his Yami." Ryou slowly got off Joey and they both sat up, pretending nothing had happened. The two multicolor haired boys entered the camp.

"Hi Ryou, hi Joey." Yugi said, quietly and cheerfully.

"Hello Yugi, Yami." Joey greeted back. The Ring glowed suddenly and Bakura materialized, looking around warily.

"Yami?"

"Bakura?"

"Shh..." Bakura could sense the other Seto was near, and was prepared to fight it. It took Yami a moment to sense it as well.

"Yugi, Joey, Ryou, get the others up and move them quickly."

"Why?"

"The dark Seto is near, now go!" the trio of mortals did as they were told, and quickly woke up T'ea and Tristan. They quickly moved off.

"I don't need your help Pharaoh." Bakura growled. Yami didn't answer, and the two waited. Finally the dark shadow jumped from his tree.

"Ah, two of you now? That's nice. Now I can get two Items instead of just one..." the spirit materialized and cackled evilly. "It would be a lot easier if you just gave me them.

"Never. You raped my hikari and you expect me to just give you the Ring? Bastard." Bakura spit at him. The dark Seto wagged a finger at him.

"When I kill you your 'hikari' will become my new toy." he said.

"The hell he will, and the hell you'll kill me. Now are we going to talk all day or are we going to fight?" Bakura grumbled. A small ball of green light formed above Bakura's head and the dark Seto laughed.

"We're going to fight of course you dimwit." he smiled as the green ball exploded....
