AN/ Okay, so this is a continuation from "Meeting" but this is going to be an actual story.

WITH CHAPTERS

I KNOW RIGHT!

Well, it's as best as I could get it to be and I like it. I know I do it far too much, but Ryou and Bakura are so fun to write for! 3 We never really get to see them interact so I often do things like this.
Bakura isn't very evil to Ryou though. That's my only problem; I need to make him more evil. =u=;

This whole story is pretty much just about Ryou and Bakura and how they get alone and whatnot. Its rather OOC, considering Bakura is actually (usually) nice to Ryou, but yeah. I'll shutup now! =D

Oh well, enjoy! ^^

Two Souls, One Mind

Ryou looked at the clock. 10 minutes until his father arrived back home. He had settled himself at the same old air port café, with the same old tea and the same old spot that always seemed to be available whenever he came to the airport to wait for his dad. Waiting… he didn't enjoy is as much as he used to anymore. So much had changed in the last year. He has gained new friends but found one enemy. An enemy that lived within the ring that hung around his neck.

Ryou sighed. Tossing it away would do no good, it would always come back to haunt him. He had tried more than once, but the spirit who lived inside it was persistent… Annoying, as well.

"Ryou what are you doing?"

"Waiting for my father" Ryou responded via their mind link. At first, it had seemed so odd to him that there was a 5,000 year old spirit in his body but now it was rather normal. He had learned not to talk out loud in case anybody thought he was just a crazy young kid. He thought back to one of his visits to his mothers after acquiring the ring. Yep, that had been a total success.

His mother had tried to take the ring off of him, but the spirit had blasted her away rather rudely. Even if he did scramble her memories of it, she came to avoid Ryou more often than she usually did; she was pretty sure that he was insane. At least his dad still loved him.

He hoped.

"Stop having a flashback sappy moment and pay attention to me!"

Ryou turned to the spirit, shrugged and took another sip of his tea. He was rather resentful towards the spirit and usually chose to simply ignore him in favour of his tea. They had a hate, hate relationship. It didn't help that on the first day of meeting him, he had taken his body for a "test run"

Ryou hummed to himself to try and ignore the constant blabbering of the spirit. He was talking about some Pharaoh again. Revenge, the Pharaoh and Millennium Items were the only thing that the spirit ever talked about. Ryou sighed. Yup, this was the life. Being randomly taken over by a crazy spirit and having most people around you not trust or care for you. Yeah. This was the life.

He had Yugi and the gang though. For that, he was extremely grateful. He had to go through this alone he would of probably tried to find a way to slaughter the spirit. He put a hand over the ring absentmindedly and thought. Yugi also had a millennium item. That's why the spirit had been attracted to Yugi. Yugi had something the spirit wanted, but he would rather not live to see him get it. From what he figured, the spirit was extremely powerful. He had only been out of the ring for a year and even in a few short months the spirit had already fully regained all of his power.

He had to be careful with what he did; he didn't want to endanger anyone. He knew full well what the spirit was capable of.

Ryou glanced up and looked at the arrivals. People were flooding in, now. If he were younger he would probably run up and hug his father, but he'd rather not with an old spirit invading his every thought.

"Note to self, Try to pry information out of him" he muttered out loud.

He glanced around. The spirit had apparently given up and returned to the confines of the millennium ring.

"Your father is approaching." The spirit alerted him.

"Leave me alone, then."

He heard the spirit laugh "Only for a little while, though!"

"Spirit!" he growled.

He heard more laugher. "I'm gone!"

He felt their mind link cut and he knew for once, he could get some peace.

He looked up at his father and smiled warmly. Finally, with the spirit off plotting in his soul room, Ryou could rest. He and his father embraced in a big hug; Ryou buried his face in his father's chest and remembered the last time he was away; when he had received the Ring.

"Ryou, it's nice to see you again."

"You too, father!"

"I see you haven't parted with the ring I got you" he smiled.

Oh if only he knew. Ryou glanced at it and shrugged.

"Let's just say it's taken a liking to me."

"More like you're just the reincarnation of my soul..."

"Shut up, you."

His father laughed.

"Alright, let's go get my bags then we can go home."

"I wouldn't have it any other way."

Okay, the ending sucks.
Sorry guys 8D
