Twenty Three – darkness unleashed

Yami's body began to change as he unleashed his monstrous form of the bat.  Another set of wings had ripped out of his back giving him a total of four wings.  Yami's rage and anger caused the ground to shake as his powers began to destroy things.  The three Egyptian gods stood by Yami's side as they have not moved since being summoned forth.

"You will all pay dearly for what you have done!" roared Yami as he commanded the three Egyptian gods to strike.  The Egyptian gods did as they were commanded as they attacked the duras destroying most of them.  Yami's rage and anger seeped into their being as they have never sensed such anger, rage, and despair.  Yami felt like he had lost everything.

Meanwhile.......... Seto felt himself floating as darkness surrounded him.  He knew that he had been killed by the two duras that they were trying to stop.  He could feel a dark power erupting close by him.  He could feel this intense anger, rage, and despair as if it was his own.

'Atemu.' he thought to himself as he knew that the vampire had unleashed the dark powers that laid with inside of him.  Seto could feel his own heartbeat slow down.  'I can't die just yet I had promised Mahad that I would watch after and care for Atemu in his place.' Seto thought to himself.

~That's my big brother. Keep on fighting cause its not over yet.~ stated a familiar voice that Seto recognized instantly.

"Mokuba?" questioned Seto.  A bright light cut the darkness as the ghostly form of Seto's little brother appeared before him.  "It is you Mokuba.  But what on earth are you doing here?" asked Seto.

~I have come to help you brother.  We want to give you a chance to become something else.  Something much stronger and more powerful.~ replied Mokuba.

"But what about Atemu?" asked Seto.

~He will be given the same power once you feed him your blood.~ replied Mahad as he entered the darkness.  Mahad looked different than before as he looked like he used to when he was alive back in Egypt.

"But what will we become?" asked Seto.

~Hybrids.  A cross between vampire and werewolf.  We will also be giving you Seto Kaiba the means to bear children.  This way the world can always be protected.~ replied Mahad.  Seto just nodded his head that he understood as both Mokuba and Mahad disappeared from Seto's sight.

Seto's heart jumped as his body undergone the transformation combining the looks of a werewolf with that of a vampire.  Seto's body shifted form to that of his first werewolf form minus the tail.  His ears stretched out from the side of his head to a point which were similar to Yami's ears.  Fur covered his body but it wasn't as bushy as it once was. A pair of large black bat wings ripped out of his back forcing Seto to open his eyes.  His eyes were blazing blue as they glowed with power.  Yami and the three Egyptian gods had joined together with the vampire as part of their forms formed on him like armor.  Yami and the Egyptian gods had killed all of the duras including both Bakura and Merick.  It appeared to Seto that the vampire's attention was turned on the humans that were being protected by the Shadow Realm magic users that Yami had summoned.  Seto knew that he had to act fast to stop Yami.  Kicking open his new found wings, Seto flew at Yami tackeling him to the ground.  Seto's sharp fangs teared into his own skin as he forced Yami to feed.

"That's enough Atemu!  If you kill the humans then you will be no better than the duras that we were trying to stop.  It's all over now.  Let it all go!" snapped Seto. The three Egyptian gods unbonded from Yami as they retreated back to the Shadow Realm.  Yami drank Seto's blood slowly as his eyes refocused seeing Seto.

"..........Seto.........?" he asked as he came back to.

"It's me Atemu.  Don't worry, I am not going anywhere." replied Seto as Yami hugged him crying.

"I thought that I had lost you." cried Yami as blood tears streaked down his face.  It was rare for Seto to see Yami like this as he held him close to him.

"You will never loose me Atemu.  I am forever yours." replied Seto.  The sorcerers that Yami had summoned dispersed the spell shield before they had disappeared back to the Shadow Realm.  Seto had used his magic to mind wipe all of the humans this way they would forget that the duras had ever existed.
