Chapter 20: Going into hiding

A while later, Kaiba arrived at his mansion. As he lowered to the ground, he took a deep breath and thought over the events that took place minutes ago. "It's over…it's finally over…"

Just then, the door opened and Kisara appeared in view. She appeared relieved to see him there. He saw her and smirked. She laughed and went to him. Feeling happier than he had in either of his lives, he hugged her tightly. She was surprised by this. "Seto…"

He smirked more and looked at her. "It's over. I avenged my parents."

Kisara smiled. "Wonderful."

Kaiba just nodded. Kisara then thought of something and her face fell. "What happened to Bakura and Anzu?"

Kaiba sighed. "They're fine. Bakura got beaten up but he'll live."

"Where are they?"

Kaiba shrugged. "Who knows? They went into hiding."

Kisara nodded in understanding. She then started to pull him inside. "Come. You must be tired."

Kaiba nodded as he closed the door behind them. He started to follow Kisara into the living room but remembered something he had to do first. He went upstairs and into Mokuba's room. The kid wasn't in his bed but his brother sensed that he was still in the room. He looked up and saw Mokuba hanging from the ceiling, asleep with his wings wrapped around his body. Shaking his head, he whispered, "Night, kid."

He closed the door behind him, finding Kisara waiting for him. He smirked and hugged her. She just smiled. "It's really over?"

Kaiba nodded. "It's over…after all these years."

Far away in a wooded area, Anzu set foot on the ground and breathed heavily. She had traveled a great distance and having Bakura on her back didn't make it easier. She lowered down and let Bakura roll off. He groaned in slight pain as he looked at his injured wing. "Great. I'm practically useless."

Anzu smiled and moved some hair out of his eyes. "You're not useless."

Bakura just stood up and started walking. Anzu stood up and followed him. As they walked, she asked, "Where are we going?"

Bakura didn't answer and kept walking. Anzu stayed close to him in her fear. Finally he stopped and stepped aside to show Anzu what he was seeing. It was a medium-size cave in the side of the mountain. As she looked at it, he said, "It may not be your idea of a place but it's somewhere where we can hide…a place where no one can find us."

Anzu smiled and took Bakura's hand. "It's fine…but why do we need to go into hiding?"

Bakura gripped her hand and started to pull her toward the cave. "Malik has followers all over the place. They probably already know about my betraying him. But once they learn that he's been killed, they'll won't rest until they're hunted me down."

Inside the cave, they sat down. Anzu looked at her mate with concern. Bakura saw this and smirked. "No need to be alarmed. We'll survive."

"But…when will we tell everyone where we are?"

Bakura sighed deeply. "Who knows? It may take a while. But it's for the best."

Anzu nodded. She knew that he was right. After all, she was no longer human anymore. She was a creature of darkness and this was a path that she voluntarily chose. Looking at him, she saw that his eyelids were getting droopy. She smiled and had him lay his head on her lip. He almost immediately went to sleep. She sighed and touched his chest. "You're right. We will survive."

Back at Malik's lair, Rebecca came out of hiding. She had been hiding in a small cabinet from when Bakura and Kaiba arrived. As she started walking around, she saw that the place was littered with the bodies of her master's followers. Remembering her friends, she raced for the prison. She finally arrived and froze for a minute.

The prisoners were still screaming to be let out for the silence terrified them. Just outside the door to the prison lay Malik's body. He looked dead, which relived Rebecca. She stepped over him and went inside the prison. "He's dead! Malik is dead!"

All the prisoners cheered at that as she grabbed the keys from the wall. She started unlocking all the cells, setting her friends free. They quickly ran out, intending to get as far away from this place. At Mai's cell, Rebecca found her tied up at the end of her bed. She untied the older blond and asked, "What happened to you?"

Mai stood up and massaged her wrists. "That jerk Valon tied me up and disguised himself as me to tell Malik what Bakura was up to."

"What happened?"

"Bakura and Anzu got out of here. I heard a gunshot but couldn't see what was going on from where I was."

Rebecca beamed. "Malik was the one who got shot! He's dead now!"

Mai raised her eyebrow as she and the young blond stepped out. "I don't know about that."

Rebecca cocked her head. "What do you mean?"

"Only certain vampires can be killed by a bullet. Malik may not have been one of them."

Rebecca wanted to know more but Mai ran out. The young girl stepped out and waved at her older friend. "Good luck!"

Mai waved without turning around. "You too. Tell your grandfather I said hello."

Rebecca nodded as Mai ran out of sight. The young girl then turned her attention to the body of the evil vampire lord. She carefully approached him and crouched down, thinking about what her cellmate told her. Rebecca shook her head, thinking that Malik was truly dead. To her surprise, his hand quickly reached up and grabbed her neck. She screamed in pure terror.

The end?
