Chapter 22: Family Greetings And A Kidnapping

It had been a week since Yugi had become his mate and Yami had never been happier than during that time. Things where going well between everyone, actually. Yami had even gotten back at Marik when he pointed out that Marik had gotten Malik knocked up.

'Oh the look on Marik's faces when Malik found out was just too funny', Yami thought to himself gleefully while he made his way to the back gate and the small hut near it, for they had received air mail that same morning. 'The fact that Malik went as far as to kick Marik out of their room made for the perfect topping for the cake too.' At that last thought a couple of very satisfied chuckles came from Yami’s mouth.

Making his way down the path across the yard, Yami thought about how he had sent his family a letter a couple of days before, informing them that he had found himself a mate. When he entered the hut he thought: 'I hope that they don't have anything against my mate being a human.’ The demon shrugged then, however, deciding that whether or not his family approved had nothing to do with the love shared between him and Yugi. With that thought Yami reached for the bird carrying a letter, a black bird with red-tipped wings. Yami recognized it to be the family bird and hastily tore the envelope open to reveal a letter written in precise, small handwriting.

A relieved sigh escaped from Yami when he instantly recognized the handwriting. Only his sister wrote like that, meaning that the letter was going to be a lot less threatening than if it had been written by his father or grandmother. Satisfied with that thought he started to read:

Dear Yami,

First of all, congratulations for finding a mate. I was very surprised when the first letter from you in months revealed that you had found a life companion for yourself. Grandma is dying to know if you two have any kids on the way. You know how she is about that. However, that doesn’t mean that the rest of us aren’t interested to know that. Actually, even father wishes to have some light shed on the matter. It is, after all, your duty to carry on the family line. I can’t say I envy you, bro.

Now, I do have something important to write as well, not that exchanging pleasantries isn’t important. I actually wrote to tell you and your new mate that father, grandma, cousin Mai and, last but not least, yours truly will be coming to visit in three days time from the day this letter was sent....

Stopping for a moment to look at the date Yami realized that he had only two days before the impending visit and nearly panicked when he worried about Yugi not being ready to face his family just yet. Shaking his head to dispel his worries he read on.

We are all happy that you have a mate and we can’t wait to meet them. And, since I know you worry about this: father said that he is fine with your mate being a human as long as they will carry your children. I will also give you a warning: mother is having one of her phases again so don’t let her around your mate unattended. Mai also sends her love and says that your mate had better be a cute one. Watch out for her as well, unless you want her to tell your mate things that are better not spoken of. Also, you need to take your mate’s measurements for grandma and me so that we can start working on their outfit for the mating show.

Of course, now that you’ve finally found yourself a mate, father is intent on keeping me safely home while mother keeps on trying to pair me up. Personally I think they should both give it a rest. I will mate when I want to and with whoever I want. Actually, I kind of like Marik’s older brother Rishid and it seems that he might return the sentiments. Which is why it’s so great that you are getting mated, since I can’t get mated before you, the first-born.

And, since we’re on the topic of Rishid, there are some news for Marik as well. His family is going to be coming for a visit along with us all. Rishid actually said that Marik had better have a family of his own under way when he shows up. His younger sisters Bell and Tin are already going on about becoming aunts and his little brother Tonin just wants to see Marik again after such a long time. Isis seems intent on pushing me and Rishid even closer together and she also finds it funny that you and Marik are going to be brother-in-laws soon. If Rishid would just ask me to become his mate, that is.

A shiver a dread went up Yami’s spine when he read the last couple of lines. Brother-in-laws? Him and Marik? He was getting a headache even thinking about it. The tan demon was bound to become even more intolerable if they were to become ‘brothers’. With that thought Yami read the last paragraph:

The whole family wishes to send their love to your mate and we also wish to say ‘welcome’ to the new member of the family. Also, Ella had been asking about you and I bet she would love to come and see your mating show so don’t forget about her. And that should be the last of it. I have stuff to take care of and we can talk more when I get there. Bye for now dear brother and give my regards to the person crazy enough to mate you.

With Love,
Your Little Sister Darth

Tucking away the letter Yami swiftly made his way back to the house, his thoughts preoccupied with everything he had just read. His attention was snatched away by a loud bang that came through the door and Yami quickly pushed the door open to witness complete chaos.

Malik had managed to find a frying pan from somewhere and was using it on Marik and, judging from the way Marik kept trying to get away from the swinging human, the demon had already received a couple of painful blows. Yugi was standing near the left hallway, looking like he was about to cry. Bakura was there as well and seemed to be the least of Yami’s worries, even though the white-haired demon was holding a human in his arms. Yami simply was not in the mood to deal with Bakura as well, though he did recognize the human to be the boy from that store, Ryou. And, judging from the way the human was not reacting to the racket Malik and Marik were keeping, the boy was a very heavy sleeper and Bakura had knocked him out.

Directing his gaze on the two tan males, Yami decided that they would probably be his first priority. Property damage was not something he wanted and it would be easier to calm Yugi down once the circus was over. And as for Bakura… Ugh, he would think about that when he had time for the kidnapping psycho. Now he had a house to save.

A.N. I hope you enjoyed this chapter and as always place review and tell us how it was. Also remember to thank Darth for her hard work on this. And as I said at the top sorry but there well be no new chapter for some time. I well try to make and get some up before two mouths. Well I will see all of you that have stayed with us this long as soon as I have made more chapters.
