Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ The Millennium Items ❯ Busting Out ( Chapter 8 )

[ A - All Readers ]

Anzu walks in on the scene and looks at Yami like he's gone crazy. Anzu goes over to Yami, but stays away so she doesn't get hit by the sword, "Are you all right?"
 
Yami stops swinging the sword and looks over at Anzu, a huge smile set upon his face. "Princess Anzu! You won't believe it! This sword is MAGIC!!" He raised the sword in front of him, looking at it with admiration. "With this sword, I'll be able to protect Yugi .... I'll be a true warrior." He shakes his head. "Ah! We've got to get out of here!"

He grabs Anzu by the arm and drags her behind him as he runs through the castle with the Magic Sword in hand, trying to find a way out of the castle. He can hear the henchmen closing in on them and turns around a different corner and pulls the princess up a flight of stairs with the Henchmen close behind them.
 
Anzu screams as she sees one of the Henchmen coming at them with a sword ready to strike.
 
Yami thrusts the sword up in front of him and swings at the Henchmen. With a burst of light the Magic Sword shatters the other sword, and throws the Henchmen over their heads and crashing into the other Henchmen behind them. Yami smiles victoriously.

"OHMYGAWD! HELP!!" Yami looks down the staircase and sees Ryou running up with a guard dog barking ferociously behind him.

"This way Ryou!" Yami says and continues up the staircase along with Anzu and Ryou. As they get higher, they reach a store room filled with wine barrels. "You keep going with Ryou, princess!" Yami says, as he turns 'round and splits open the wine barrels in order to slow the henchmen down.

He then follows the princess and Ryou once again out into the courtyard, more and more henchmen coming after them.
 
Everyone has seen them by now and they all are on the chase. Marik was leading the chase, "AFTER THEM!!" Ryou, Anzu and Yami find the drawbridge. But they are trapped. Marik smirks at them being trapped, "Ha, ha, ha! We've got you now!" One of the Henchmen throws an axe and it almost hits Anzu, she screams and yells to Yami frantically, 'Ah! Yami! DO something! Use the sword!"
 
Yami, who is trying not to get hit with the spears that are being thrown at him, swings at the chain holding up the drawbridge with the sword. The chain breaks immediately, spinning up into the air and the drawbridge coming down.

Yami looks around as he hears Ryou coming down after them, screaming like a girl, the dog still hot on his tail.

"OHMYGAWD! OHMYGAWD! OHMYGAAAAWD!!"

"Quick, Ryou!" Yami says as he and Anzu get onto the drawbridge as the gate begins to close. Ryou quickly zooms under the gate just as it closes, the dog banging right into it and whining at the loss of its prey.
 
The three keep running to away from there to the forest.
 
Back in the castle.
 
Marik walks a bit slowly to King Bakura's chamber's he mumbles to himself, "What am I going to do? What am I going to say to him?" He looks down in worry and strokes his throat, still a bit red from when Bakura choked him before, and gulps. "He's going to choke me again... but... maybe this time will be different' he looks to where he's going, "yea! I'll tell him that it wasn't my fault! Not at all! And if he thinks it is I'll show him!"

Marik stops at the door to Bakura's room; he gulps and knocks on the door slightly, afraid again. Marik opens the door and peers in, seeing his king, "Y-You're Majesty?"
 
Bakura looks up slightly in the dark and let's out a raspy breath. "Do you bring news of the younger brother?"
 
Marik gulps again and comes inside, he looks down, "n-no my Lord. It's about the o-older brother. He, the princess and YOUR brother have e-escaped...” Marik looks up slightly, and embraces himself for pain around his neck
 
Bakura let's out a raspy sigh and gestures for Marik to come closer.
 
Marik's breath pauses and his heart pounds at seeing this. He shivers for a slight second, looks down and walks over to his lord, fearing the worst that Bakura can do to him.
 
Bakura grabs Marik's throat and holds on tightly as Marik struggles against his grip, looking at the door and thinking of what he should do. "My brother ..." He drops Marik abruptly. "They'll find the little one. Have the gwythaints follow my brother and the boy!"
 
Marik coughs a bit and breathes deeply, rubbing his hand against his throat, he looks back up to his king, "yes sire, right away!" And with that Marik quickly runs out of there and orders the gwythaints to follow the gang, in which they obey and take off.
