Sorry for this late updates! college courses really getting to me ~pout~ oh well I hope you like chapter twelve to Zanshi! ENJOY!!!

Ryou opened his eyes to that of a concerned Malik. The last thing he could remember was Otogi…but it didn't take a rocket scientist to know what had happened to him. He covered his mouth and turned away from Malik not able to stand the look in his eyes.

"…Ryou." Malik said placing a gentle hand on his shoulder. "Don't be like that, I'm not angry or anything, it's…it's okay, everything will be okay Ryou." He said softly.

Ryou bit his lower lip shrinking a little. Malik kissed his cheek happy that he didn't flinch away at the contact.

"I gave you a bath…and put some clean clothes on you…I was hoping it would make you feel a little better." Malik said

Ryou looked down inspecting himself, which sure enough he was clean, and with clean clothes on. He sighed sitting up and found only a slight sting of pain when he did so. He smiled at Malik softly.

"Sorry…and thank you." Ryou said as Malik hugged him comfortingly. Ryou sighed returning the hug.

"The fight is tomorrow Ryou…They want to lock you up in here while we go out to fight." Malik said trailing off slightly.

"Let them fight Malik…" Ryou said making Malik turn to him curiously "Let them destroy themselves, then come back to me and we will run away together." Ryou said forcing a smile.

"But…but what if I get hurt? I could die doing this Ryou." Malik said.

"This time I won't leave you alone Malik…" Ryou paused "It's tomorrow…love me tonight." He said softly.

"Your still hurt though…I don't want to add to that pain." Malik said although he wanted Ryou terribly at that moment.

Ryou smiled gently at him "Don't worry, I want to know if you are all right this time, I want to be with you this time." Ryou said.

Malik smiled at him softly "Tell me you love me." Malik said

"I love you." Ryou said without hesitation.

"Good…I love you too." Malik said kissing him passionately. He wanted to go further but Ryou had been through so much and he hesitated somewhat.

"What's wrong?" Ryou asked softly. "I told you I would be fine." Ryou said

"It's just…I wanted our first time together to be special, this…here is not what I wanted." Malik said standing bringing Ryou to his feet and kissing him strongly. "I swear to you I will survive and then we will run away together…we could make love near the ocean, under the stars, anywhere you want we will go." He smiled kissing Ryou once more.

Ryou blushed slightly "Promise me again." Ryou said softly

"I promise." He said kissing him one last time.

Ryou nodded in response as Malik left him for the night.

Yami paced his room. He hated this he knew Ryou was in danger every second he stayed there, and had probably already endured some type of torture. He sighed heavily he wanted to protect Ryou and keep him safe; he truly cared for the boy and couldn't help himself. But Malik was also there hopefully he didn't turn Ryou toward their side and he still would come back to them.

Yami suited up like the others except for Kiaba of course who stayed in his cave of computers. He would slice Keith into ribbon's that bastard was granted mercy last time he opposed them but not this time. He would die this time and the night was creeping ever closer soon they would battle and he would take Ryou back. He polished his sword thinking of ways to cause Keith as much pain as possible until he killed him and smirked to himself placing the sword back in it it's seethe.

"Maybe Malik will have a little accident during battle…" He said to himself as Malik and Bakura walked in Joey behind them.

"Are you ready?" Bakura asked

"Where are we to meet them?" Yami asked

"The Cliffside, near the ocean. At least that's what we were told." Joey responded

"Yes." Yami answered simply

"Sir…what are we to do about Malik?" Marik asked worried slightly about his brother's fate.

"He is a traitor Marik we will handle him like all the others. This time he will not live do I make myself clear?" He said sternly

"Yes" all there boys responded as they followed Yami out into the night.

Keith grabbed Ryou's arm roughly. "Time to go little one." He said dragging him from the room as he was thrown over his shoulder. Keith smiled smacking his ass hard making Ryou yelp slightly.

"How about another round kid?" He said shoving Ryou to the ground and straddling him as he began to ravage Ryou's mouth who screamed at the contact.

"Hey Keith we got a deadline to make you can fuck the kid later alright?" Mai said coming up behind him.

Keith smiled "Your right as always…they will no longer be a part of Domino once we are through with them." He said.

"Your wrong!" Ryou yelled "You will not defeat them no matter what you do!" Ryou yelled angrily earning a slap across the face for his outburst.

"We'll see about that brat, you just can sit back and watch while we kill them in front of your eyes." Keith said venom dripping from his voice as they ventured off into the night as well to meet their opponents for the last time.
