Your Alone and your Scared

"Great!" muttered Ryou as he shoved the phone into his pocket along with his gloved hands, "There goes Christmas" he whispered tears filling his chocolate brown eyes. His father was not going to make it, he was going to be alone for the first time.

If this was him a few months earlier then being alone would have been great. He would have enjoyed sitting in front of the fire with a mug of hot coco and a good book. But ever since Bakura left the thought of being alone terrified him. Sure the thought of having a killer psychopathic spirit dead was a good thing, but the emptiness overruled that feeling strongly.

He sighed again, slipping the key in the lock before he turned it. Pushing the heavy oak door open he made his way into the small apartment he called home. He placed the stuff down in the kitchen before he kicked his shoes off, returning to the kitchen and began making something to eat, he needed to get his mind off the thought of being alone.

As he placed the pan onto the hob he heard a whisper, at least he thought he did. That whisper, the whisper that haunted him for many years. He turned quickly, but nothing was there. "It is ok Ryou, he is gone, gone forever" he whispered, his breathing getting quicker. "Now you are just imagining things, your mind is clouded. Maybe I should go to bed" he whispered.

He poured the hot liquid into the mug and made his way quickly up the dark stairs, his soft footsteps seemed to echo through the entire building. /That is what you get for being alone!/ he scolded himself mentally. "Why did I not accept that invitation that Yuugi gave me earlier?!" he cried softly. He looked into the guest room, Bakura's old bedroom, he always did that now. He smiled when he saw no one there and went to turn around, before the whisper filled his mind again, this time louder.

"Hello again my light," the chuckle made him shiver, he turned to see the cold eyes of his yami. "What are you doing here?" he whispered fiercly, fear obviously in his voice. "Oh I made a new friend, who helped me get back to you dear hikari," chuckled as another man appeared. The same snow white hair and cold eyes as Bakura, but he was tanned, and had a scar under one of his eyes. "Meet my new friend, and my dark, Akefia."

Ryou stepped back quickly, "Y-y-you.... the thief!" he whispered. "So you have heard about me dear... Ryou is it?" the tanned male chuckled."We heard all about you being alone." Bakura said. "So are you staying for good this time?" Ryou whispered, inching back out of the room. "Yup!" Bakura said cheerfully and Akefia nodded. "Don't worry your not the only one, Yami's mini host person as also got him back, as well as our dear pharoah." he shrugged. "You mean Atemu?" Ryou's face lit up visibly. "Oh so you smile when he returns but not when we are here?" Akefia growled. "Please!" Ryou gasped bowing his head making both 'Kura and Akefia raise an eyebrow. "I did not mean it like that, it is just.... he is kind and you two are....welll...." "Evil?" the two darks said at once. "Yeah I guess" he shrugged.

"So are you a spirit 'Kura?" the young male asked his legs swinging from the counter from which he sat. "Yeah, we all got to be human again, well Akefia is some human deamon thing because he is way too old to be a normal human" he chuckled. "While I am still 16 and will stay 16 forever" he sighed. "So you are not human?" Ryou asked confused. "I guess I am not" he sighed. Akefia was too busy trying to stab at the mouse he had caught not so long ago. "Can I eat this?" he asked licking his lips. "Yeah why not?" 'Kura shrugged. "No!" Ryou cried covering his eyes. "You are way too squeamish Ryou" 'Kura chuckled.

5 minutes later Bakura was on the floor laughing and Ryou had ran to the bathroom to throw up as Akefia placed the mouse in his mouth. "That was amazing, never knew you had such a big mouth" 'Kura laughed. "I should have cut off its head first" Akefia hiccuped.

"So will you go comfort him or will I?" Akefia smirked.
