The meeker boy stood behind his darker half, his thin arms wrapped around his love, one around his waist and the other snaked under his arm and across his torso, clinging to Yami Bakura's shoulder.
The two boys were in the shadow realm, Ryou was giving all of his strength to his darkness. Ryou was on the verge of collapsing when Bakura realised and caught his little hikari before he crumpled to the ground.
Bakura turned back around to glare at and punish the 'demon' that had forced him to use so much of his and his hikari's energy.
He glowered at the pharaoh standing opposite him. As Bakura thought about what would have happened if he had drained all of his hikari's life energy, he got angrier and angrier. As the shadows swirled around him he channelled his anger into the shadow magic and the swirling shadows, obeying the Yami, came to tighter and forced a huge tornado of dark energy.
Ryou opened his eye's barely enough to see what was happening, he looked up, and saw his lover's anger, their surroundings and thought to himself, "The eye of the storm is truly the calmest place." Before drifting back into unconsciousness.
