A.N. This is for JMProductions' songfic contest. I used Bring Me to Life from Evanescence. Bakura's completely OOC! This hasn't been my best work, but I'm bored and this passed the time. Thanks for reading! Review! No flames please!
How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core
Bakura walked around the Shadow Realm like he's done dozens of times, looking for a specific person. "Amane?"
He spotted her sitting down, eyes glazed over, blank. He immediately knew something was amiss. "What's wrong?" he asked, an unusual gentle tone in his voice.
"Nothing," she mumbled.
where I've become so numb
Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
"Ryo," she mumbled. "Ryo."
"What about him?"
"Ryo," she continued to chant.
The Magician of Faith appeared from the mist to Amane's side. "She's been doubting herself and her relationship with her brother. Help find her with her confidence." She disappeared, leaving Bakura to watch where she once stood.
Wake me up
(Wake
me up inside)
I can't wake up(Wake me up inside)
Save me(Call my name and save me from the dark)Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
For Amane, this was a never ending nightmare. She died in a car accident, the lasting thing she said to her brother was that she hated him due to a fight. Worst of all, she was somehow sent into tthe Shadow Realm. Though Bakura didn't seem like the person for it, he was the only one who could keep her spirits up in this place of everlasting darkness.
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing
I've become)
Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave
me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life
She wants to be alive again: To see her brother once more, to go back to the beach, her favorite place, and feel the wind in her hair, sand beneath her toes, the cool water. "Ryo," she continued to chant. "Bakura. Help," she croaked. He turned to go, but she grabbed his arm. "Stay."
Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)Wake me up
"Amane, snap out of it." He couldn't bear to see the girl like that. He does have a heart, to people's suprise. His time in his own body helped him develop that. Unfortunately, that didn't give him a lot of time in the Shadow Realm which equaled not much time with Amane.
(Bid my
blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me

me from the nothing I've become)
"'Kura. Help me. I just wanna die."
He didn't have it in her to tell her she was already dead, only to live in the shadows.
"Please snap out of it. I don't want you to be like this."
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life
Frozen inside without your
touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead
"Bakura? Bakura!" Her eyes once again showed emotion. "You're back!" She tackled him into a hug, causing him to fall onto his back. She buried her head into his chest. "I missed you," she whispered.
All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark
but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it
seems
The two spent what felt like an eternity talking to each other.
Amane got up from his chest and kissed his cheek. "I love you, Bakura."
His eyes grew and a ture smile made its way acros his face.
They had feelings for each other for awhile but pushed them away.
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without thought, without
voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
It was time for Bakura to head back to the land of the living. "Don't leave me," the girl begged.
There must be something
more
Bring me to life
Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't
wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
"I have to," he said with an apologetic tone.
"Take me with you," he whispered, not letting him go.
(Call my name and save me from the
dark)
"I can't."
"Save me from here."
Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I
come undone)
Save me (Save me from the nothing I've become)
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life
"Wake me up from this nightmare," she begged. "Help me, 'Kura."
He looked at her, sadness in his eyes. "Sorry, Amane." He disappeared.
