Keara, Yami and Aqua woke up later in the night and seeing that Yugi was still asleep with the pups, they left the forest and started to make a plan of attack. /"I'll head to the hospital and get the milk for the pups."/ Aqua said and they nodded.

"We'll head back into town and see if we can find any sign of Dartz or Pegasus. I know they'll still be out searching for anyone so we need to make sure they are safe." Keara said and Aqua nodded. /"I'll meet up with you all later after I make sure the pups are accustomed to their temporary home with Yugi before I leave them."/ he said before running off towards the nearest hospital.

When he was gone, Keara and Yami headed back towards Domino City.

Ryou purred in his sleep before waking up and looked down to the still sleeping Bakura. He smiled before getting up and walked over to Diamond's room and knocked. She opened the door and smiled.

"Hey, Ryou. Come on in." she greeted and held the door open for him. Ryou smiled to her as he walked inside. Since he never changed out from his new Shadow beast form, that's how he was for the time being. /"Diamond, I want to ask you something."/ he said and she nodded as she sat on her bed beside him.

"Ask away, Ryou."

/"Tell me, what do you know about Shadow beasts?"/ he asked. "Well, there's not much since I never got to know Bakura all that well in the past but you can ask him for more info about them but I tell you what I do know." she said and started telling what she knew about the Shadow beasts. Once she was done, Ryou thanked her before heading back to his room.

Bakura was awake and looked to him. /"Where did you go, Ryou?"/

/"Just went to go ask Diamond about something."/ Ryou answered as he sat down on the bed beside Bakura and he leaned down to nuzzle him.

/"Well, you know I miss you when you are not by my side."/ he murmured as he continued to nuzzle him. Ryou nuzzled him back before lifting his head. /"Hey, Bakura, how many Shadow beasts are left in the world? I was always curious about that when I met you for the first time."/ Ryou asked.

/"As of now, there are not many because we would rather go for human mates instead of those in our kind but when the one we want finds out we're a shadow beast, they would leave us because they think we are too destructive or too beastly. Then there were also many hunters that hunt for our pelt so we lose a lot more of our kind that way."/ he answered.

/"So, when you were looking for a mate, did you ever wish for children so the Shadow Beast race wouldn't be extinct?"/ he asked. /"Yes, I have but I thought I would never find someone. Until you came. Are you trying to tell me you would be willing to bear my children, Ryou?"/ he asked.

/"Of course, if it would make you happy and I always wanted to raise children of my own."/ Ryou said, smiling up at him. Bakura smiled and well and licked his cheek. /"It would make me very happy to know that."/ he said before lying Ryou down on the bed and climbed on top of him.

/"We should start now just because I don't want to risk that you would be captured by Dartz and taken back to Pegasus when I'm not around."/ he continued and Ryou nodded. Bakura leaned down to kiss him before he gave Ryou a night he wouldn't forget for a long time.

Jou and Kaiser were comfortably asleep on the soft comforter they were able to get for them and both Seto and Ruby watched them before they left to go hunt for Pegasus or Dartz once more. Ruby turned back to the warehouse and placed a spell over it so it one of them were roaming around the city, they won't be able to find them easily. /"We should get going, Ruby. Dartz may be out once again trying to find someone."/ Seto murmured and he nodded before they flew off.

Pegasus growled as he paced through his room. "If it wasn't for Aqua showing up here, I probably would've had someone to bear my pups and then get out of here but now I'm having a struggle with just finding someone thanks to them protecting the boy and his friends." Pegasus hissed.

Dartz watched him before speaking. "Maybe I can still have a chance of finding you someone. They may watch over them but they can only do so for so long. I may have a chance somehow." he said and Pegasus nodded.

"Fine then. Go and look for them and bring one back. Fail me this time then don't bother coming back at all." Pegasus hissed and he nodded before leaving out once more. 'He better not fail me. I can only avoid them so long and I'm not going to get killed without succeeding with my goal. My bloodline will forever taint this world until it's the only one left.' he thought before he sat down in a chair.

An hour later, Bakura laid by Ryou's side, listening to his soft breathing as he slept quietly. He leaned down to nuzzle him before he got up. 'Sleep well, Ryou.' he thought before he walked over to the window and opened it, jumping out before running off to see if he could find any trace of Dartz or Pegasus out on the streets.

'I know Diamond will make sure he's safe. I will kill them myself if they come and capture Ryou while he's vulnerable.' he thought once more with a snarl as he ran through the streets.

Yami continued to run through the streets, Keara flying overhead. /"Any sign of them, Keara?"/ he asked, looking up to her. "No, not yet but I know one of them are out now. I can feel it." she told him and he nodded. They met up with the others and stopped there to discuss a plan.

While they were doing so, Dartz watched silently from the shadows and grinned. 'Good, as long as they don't know where I am, I can capture one of their little humans.' he thought as he ran out, unintentionally stepping on a twig and catching Yami's attention.

He growled when he spotted him and ran after him, the others following behind him. "I have him." Keara said as she grabbed him, gaining a yelp from him and she took him to a secluded area, the other demons following behind her.

Aqua came back soon with a bag filled with bottles of human mother's milk. He placed the bag down and shifted back into his human form, grabbing a dish and poured a bottle into it. "Come on, little ones. Time to eat." he said and the small pups woke up slowly before walking over.

They crowded over the bowl, getting their fill before they yawned and curled up back at Yugi's side. He smiled softly and walked over to sit next to them, stroking Yugi's fur quietly. He mewled softly in his sleep, snuggling closer to Aqua.

Anzu, who was still quite alive and tied to the tree, looked over to them. 'How could Yugi take this path in life and drag me into it? I don't want to become no meal to no stupid pups. So what if I did insult him and such when we were little, that doesn't give him the right to do this to me. I have more important things to worry about than this.' she thought.

Aqua growled and looked over to her, clearly hearing her thoughts. "Shut your trap, girl. If he chose to ruin your life like this then so be it. You don't deserve to be living for what you did. The world will be a better place without you roaming around."

"How can you say that? At least I'm not some sort of beast that kills others." Anzu hissed. His eyes narrowed. "Well, at least we kill for a good reason. There is much more evil out there than you know and it's our duty to protect others of the supernatural race."

That silenced her and he snorted lightly before he shifted back into a wolf and lied down by Yugi's side. /"Now, if you don't mind, keep silent. I don't need your grating voice waking Yugi. He needs his sleep now."/ he told her before he went to sleep as well, hoping for the best with Yami and the others.

Dartz was tied up by Keara's magic and he growled as he tried to escape. /"I won't tell you where he is. You can torture me all you want but I will never reveal you his location."/ Dartz growled. "You will tell us where he is. Now, where is Pegasus hiding?" she questioned, a whip of controlled magma in her claws.

/"I will never tell."/ he said and he cried out of he was hit with the whip, his fur being scorched easily. /"Tell us and we may spare your life."/ Bakura said, prowling around him like a hungry wolf.

/"Never. Torture me all you want but you'll still never get the location from me."/ Dartz hissed, glaring at them. "That can be arranged." Keara murmured as she whipped him again and again. The torture continued on, Keara using various spells and weapons on the unresponsive wolf.

Dartz was now bloody from head to toe and almost dead. He panted harshly and looked up to them with glazed eyes. He sighed, knowing this may be the end of him anyway. /"Fine, I'll tell you. Pegasus is hiding away deep in the city. Right behind a building that should be torn down soon."/ he confessed and she smirked.

"Pleasure doing business with you." she told him before looking to the others. "Well, we got his location. Let's get moving before he tries to escape." Keara said. /"Alright but just one more thing."/ Yami spoke as he turned back to Dartz.

/"This is for almost ruining Aqua's new life."/ he hissed and slashed him deep at his chest cavity, breaking his ribcage and puncturing his lungs with the powerful force behind his swipe. He gurgled, blood spilling out his snout and chest before he slumped over, dead. He snorted before looking back to them. /"Let's get going before Pegasus tries to escape."/ The group nodded as they ran or flew off once more toward their designated location.

"I knew I couldn't trust that blundering fool. Guess I'll have to find one of them myself. Hopefully I can without them capturing me." Pegasus whispered to himself as he shifted and ran out, taking a path through the back of the old restaurant he was hiding in, just as they arrived.

Yami sniffed the ground and growled. /"He was just here and he left already. He's probably out trying to find one of Yugi's friends. We best call it off for tonight and try again tomorrow. It won't be long before sunrise."/ Yami told them and they nodded.

"Need a ride back to the forest, Yami?" Keara asked and he nodded. They all said their goodbyes before heading back to the respective homes or hideouts until the next night, each hoping that they will find Pegasus soon so they can get rid of him for good.
