Entombed

Chapter 2

It had been two months since the newest inmates had been relocated here. Each was trying their best to get used to their new living arrangements.

Early one morning, Marik took the tea to Ryou for breakfast. "Here you go." He said gently, unlocking the cell and going in.

"T-Thanks," he shed a small smile, appreciating the kind gesture.

Pulling out a prewrapped blueberry muffin, he offered it to the whitette.

Smiling fondly, he accepted the offering. He hoped that he wouldn't get Marik in trouble for him doing this.

Marik smiled back. Blushing, he whispered. "I thought you liked blueberries."

"Yep, I-I do," he munched on it, glad to have something to get his energy back.

"Good. Well, see you later, Ry." Marik walked out.

"Bye," Ryou watched him leave, looking down as he sighed, finishing off his makeshift breakfast before going back to the bunk.

Yami walked up to Yugi. "Gotta get you back before Marik gets in trouble." Yami whispered.

"Ok," Yugi got up, figuring it's time to go back in.

Leading Yugi back in to the cell, Yami opened it.

Going inside, he went to the bunk, noticing Ryou is still there. He hoped that he would be ok.

Locking the door, Yami went back to the control room. Looking over his orders, he sighed. Getting up he went to fetch Bakura. Following Yami, Bakura went with him. Being deposited at the Warden's office, he frowned but waited.

"Yes, come in," Zorc said, having taken notice of who it would be. "What can I do for you?"

Bakura frowned. "The guard brought me up here because I wanted to find out what I could do to get Ryou Bakura into general population, rooming with me." he said.

"That's cute," the warden couldn't help to be amused by this request. "It takes a long fucking time for that to happen, cupcake. If you're hoping for that then you have to earn it."

"How do I earn it?" Bakura asked, staring at the warden.

"I'm glad you asked," smirked Zorc, a glint in his ruby coals. "The best way is to be my bitch for a few weeks. If you perform well then you'll be greatly rewarded. If you fail then....I'm sure you don't want to know what would happen next."

Bakura's jaw tightened, but he nodded. "What do you want me to do?" he asked, accepting the terms.

"Hmm, didn't think it would be that easy, but good," nodded Zorc, still thoroughly amused by this. "You'll start tomorrow. Yami, make sure he's here after he's been fed. If this goes well then you might get that promotion you've wanted."

Yami nodded, taking Bakura back with him. As Yami put Bakura back in his cell, his crimson eyes were worried. "Be careful," is all Yami said as Bakura grunted, going in and sitting down across from Malik.

"How'd it go?" Malik asked, knowing he'd need to tell the fluffer his story of how Marik messed up while behind the bars in their cell.

Shrugging, Bakura sighed. "I'm his bitch. But I'll get the chance for Ry to be under my protection...and I won't mess up this time." Bakura picked at his pants.

"That's good," nodded the blonde, hoping he would be ok.

"So, what the fuck were you talking about with Marik?" Bakura eyed the psycho.
