The Perturbation of Bakura

Twinken: Hello there! This is my very first Fanfic… I hope it's okay… please enjoy! :)

Chapter 1

The sweat from his face dropped to the ground, he was running as fast as his legs would take him. Ryou Bakura, a high school student, ran in any direction to escape. His long, white hair brushed behind, tickling his back. He looked behind to see if it was there, he saw nothing, but knew his Yami was right on his tail. Ryou tried to run faster, to escape the demon's grasp, but ended up tripping. He fell to the ground, scratching the palms of his hands. He desperately tried to get up, but it was too late for that. Yami Bakura, the evil spirit of the Millennium Ring, had him pinned to the ground. The fierce eyes of Yami Bakura stared into Ryou's scared, trembling eyes. Yami Bakura pulled a knife out of his pocket, and stabbed the ground with Ryou's sleeve. Ryou couldn't break free. Yami Bakura stood up, and took the Millennium Ring off from around his neck. He stabbed Ryou in the chest with the pointed ends of the Ring. Ryou felt the puncture, and his vision starting to go blurry. His shirt began to be stained with red blood. Yami Bakura watching the blood flow, and grinned.

"…Never disobey me! RYOU! This should teach you!!" Yami Bakura shouted, and laughed maniacally.

Ryou tried to speak, with his last breathe, "Y-Y-Yami… Ba-…" he couldn't finish. Yami Bakura looked down upon Ryou, still laughing. Ryou began to close his eyes, his vision still blurry.

"Y-Yami…" Ryou said last. He couldn't see anything anymore. He finally closed his eyes.

"Y-…" he couldn't make another noise.

Suddenly, Ryou bolted up in his place. He was panting, and sweating like crazy. He noticed his bed sheets, and that he was wearing his pajamas. He looked at them carefully, and saw there was no blood on them. He flopped his head back down on his pillow, and noticed he was trembling. He also noticed that his alarm clock was going off. He stepped out of bed, and grabbed the Millennium Ring, even though he didn't intend to. He put it around his neck, and went to go take a shower before heading off to school.

"Hey Bakura! How are you this morning?" Yugi Muto, one of Ryou's friends, asked when he arrived at school.

"H-Huh? Oh, Yugi, Hello! I-I'm… good this moring. How about you?" he said, thinking a little about his dream.

'It was just a dream… It was just a dream…' Ryou kept saying to himself in his mind. Yugi looked at him unsure.

"Are you… sure? You seem like you have something on your mind." Yugi asked, a little concerned.

"Don't worry, I'm perfectly fine!" Ryou said, putting on his best smile. Although, deep down, he knew that he was scared. Yugi was still unsure.

"Well… alright." Yugi said, "I guess I'll see you later then."

"Yeah, I'll see you later." Ryou said, still smiling. During his classes, he wasn't able to concentrate at all. He kept thinking about the dream he had last night.

'W-Why do I keep thinking of that?! Is it… Is it because it felt too real?' he thought to himself.

Later that day, when Ryou went home, he stopped before he grabbed the doorknob to his apartment room. He began to walk away, and thought to himself, 'I need to get this horrible thought out of my head. Maybe I just need to do something to get it off my mind…' then, without thinking, he started heading for the Turtle Game Shop, the place where Yugi lived. Ryou knocked, then opened the door. He saw Yugi's Grandpa, sitting at the counter.

"…Hmm? OH! Hello, Bakura! It's nice to see you again." Grandpa said, smiling.

"Hello. Um… where's Yugi?" Ryou asked, still not thinking.

"Um… UH… OH! I think he's in his room." Grandpa replied, having to think a little.

"Thank-you." Ryou said with a bow, and headed up to Yugi's room.
