Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ The Exfoilation of Perenial Beings ❯ Chapter One ( Chapter 1 )

Sweet notes: Okay, a bit of an off shoot for me, but hey, I like it. The title means pretty much 'the exposure of long lived beings' but it's hard for me to describe because my computer's thesaurus doesn't recognize exfoliate or exfoliation.

Disclaimer: I don't own 'em.

Warnings: Lemon, blood, bishounen boinking, Yaoi, gay guys, Yami/Yugi, one sided Setouh/Yugi, PWP, AU, swearing and vampires.

'Where shall I begin, please your Majesty?' he asked.

'Begin at the beginning,' the King said, gravely, 'and go on till you come to the end: then stop.'

Motouh Yugi closed his scientific book and took off his reading glasses. Between his skull and his brain was a pounding, and although it did not make sense for a pounding to locate itself there, it was there, and it was very persistent in its own self awareness. Yugi checked his black wrist watch, it was ten at night and he still did not have a title for his paper.

The scientific book of names and 1,000 pages worth of thesaurus had not helped. In fact, nothing seemed to tell him an appropriate title to his paper.

So he wrote 'untitled' in and saved and closed and sighed. His spiky, strange, tricoloured hair didn't move as he stood and pushed in his chair.

He felt hopeless. He sighed and slipped into his coat before leaving the office.

Outside the world was dark and cold but the world was always like this, just sometimes the weather changed. Tonight the weather was very cold, the wind biting and the ground was covered in frost. Thick grey oozy clouds rolled over the full moon, casting shadows across the ground.

Yugi shivered and drew his coat firmer around his body, hurrying to his motor bike. He hated being out on a night like this, especially being out at night, alone with no means of defending himself if creepy crawlies attacked.

"What's the rush, Yugi-kun? You only just got out of school, and the night is only just getting ripe." A thick voice full of southern accent purred at him. Yugi could almost taste the lust in the voice.

Yugi stiffened and whirled around, his violet eyes wide and fearful. "Mr. Kaiba." He said softly in acknowledgement of the vampire. His hands fished his keys from his pocket and he bowed very vaguely. "I'm afraid I don't really have time to chat with you, Kaiba-san, I'm running a bit behind schedule-"

"Yugi-kun, I am a vampire, don't lie to me. I can smell it on your body. You don't have a schedule, you were just heading home." Kaiba's cool voice snapped over the diminutive form of the human and Yugi shivered in slight fear at the thread of anger the voice released. Setouh's eyes were drowning twin pools of blue fire, his hair a chestnut brown and cut short so the bangs slid to one side. The vampire, as usual wore a blue trench coat over a silk red chemise and skin tight black leather pants, making any observer aware that there was no underwear under those pants.

Yugi looked away from the vampire. He had seen the show, and he was quite positive he didn't want the show tasting him. Or any show tasting him. Especially a vampire. He liked life, and he wanted to keep it that way, alive.

He had been planning on going home, but at Kaiba's appearance he thought better of it, in fact, he thought he would go out on the town.

"Hmm, my little gem? What's got you so caught up in thought?" Kaiba whispered in his ear suddenly. Body far too close for comfort.

Yugi gasped and jumped away from the vampire, well aware that he was allowed to. Setouh could wrestle an elephant into submission, one little boy wouldn't be hard to keep in one place. "Nothing, Mr. Kaiba. But I do have somewhere I want to be." Anywhere away from you, Yugi thought silently.

Setouh's eyes glowed eerily. "And that would be?" his voice was a harsh purr, deadly.

Yugi swallowed and contemplated the safest night club he knew. Pagan Circles. "Uhh, meeting a friend at Pagan Circles, you know, the club." Mentally he justified this, maybe he'd get laid, that could be friendly.

"A friend or someone you can make friendly?" The vampire asked, stepping closer and practically pinning Yugi to a car. Probably Setouh's car as it was so late at night.

Nuts! The vamp was on to him.

"Uhhhmmmm…" Yugi breathed out, leaning as far away as possible. "Both?"

Setouh shook his head voice heading back into sultry tones. "Why don't you stop being silly Yugi-kun and come home with me, we can go to your home and I can fuck you into the floor. I bet you'd like it."

I bet I wouldn't, a little voice said in Yugi's head. "But I can't leave my friend's hanging out alone. It's wrong to just cancel stuff." Unless you didn't agree to said stuff, like being molested or raped. Yugi wasn't about to write something like 'Setouh: rape, nine tonight' into his diary.

"Hn. So, why are you out this late, Yugi-kun?" The vampire asked, a pale hand trailed down Yugi's nose and over his chin.

Yugi swallowed. "I was writing." The boy answered cautiously.

"Must have been a lot of writing." Kaiba commented.

Yugi swallowed and ducked under Kaiba's arm, heading for his bike with a quickened pace. Kaiba caught up with him easily.

"You're so touchy, Yugi-kun. Why can't you just relax once in a while and let me take care of you?"

Because I don't want to wake up in a coffin? Yugi thought. Damn that little voice, if Kaiba was able to mind read he'd probably be dead soon. But then, if Kaiba was able to take Yugi under with his eyes then Yugi would have been dead long ago.

"I'm not touchy, I'm just very busy. Unlike the undead I don't have eternity to play with other people's lives." He snapped slightly biting back the fear of snapping at said undead.

Kaiba tsked in mock shock. "My, we are sort tempered tonight. Usually my little Yugi is so docile and adorably uncomfortable. Tell me, are you not getting enough sex?"

Like he was going to tell Kaiba! Yugi mentally rolled his eyes. "Please, Mr. Kaiba. I don't have time to play around, I really am late." Yugi slipped his motorbike helmet on and he unchained the bike, straightening up and blushing as he realized the vampire had been watching his ass. The helmet hid his face but it was still embarrassing.

Setouh tsked again and turned. "See you soon, Yugi-kun."

"Goodbye, Mr. Kaiba." Yugi said out of habit. There was a moment of silence before the flurry of wind was drowned out by Yugi's motorbike humming to life. Yugi was glad too, he'd gotten away without his pound of flesh this night. He was considering seriously bringing some weapons to school.
