Other Games?
A/N: ireneotaku and I like to play games… besides Duel Monsters. This pretty much came to life when she kept beating me at Speed…
Constructive criticism is accepted and very much appreciated! This is rated T for TEEN due to language… and I think that's it. People of the internet, you have been warned. Enjoy!
DISCLAIMER: If I owned any of these games or Yu-Gi-Oh, I'd be rich, famous, and not here writing. Since this is lucky number 35, it's a safe bet that I don't own anything famous like Yu-Gi-Oh or any of the games… though I do enjoy playing them. And all I own is the plotline.
Chapter 1: Let the Games Begin!
Ryo walked into his apartment after a long half day of school. He slipped off his shoes and threw he bag down when he saw his yami sitting in the kitchen looking through a deck of Duel Monsters trading cards. He had a look of serious thought fill with strategic ideas and thoughts. The hikari just sighed and shook his head.
"Again?" he asked as he walked into the same room. Bakura looked up and snorted.
"You don't know how hard it is plan all of this out," the yami said in defense. Ryo raised an eyebrow.
"Really," he challenged, "then if you've been working on a strategy all day, then beating me would a piece of cake." He pulled out a deck and put it on the table.
"Hey," the yami asked out of the blue, "how did you get all of those cards to fit in one pocket?" Ryo looked at his yami, then at his cards, and then back. He shrugged.
They shuffled their decks and began playing.
Eventually, at the end of five minutes Ryo finished off Bakura. The yami just stared at the cards in amazement and shock. He then looked up at the hikari.
"I demand a rematch!" he yelled. Ryo shrugged and gathered up his cards and then shuffled. His yami did the same, but with a serious look of determination on his face.
But the outcome was the same with Ryo the victor. They played it over and over and over again, until Bakura just slammed his fists into the kitchen table and yelled. Ryo flinched back a bit, but when you live with a sadistic yami who starts throwing a tantrum when they stop showing his favorite show on TV at the end of every season or when they run out of steak, you get used to it.
"How," Bakura asked, "how the hell do you manage to beat me? I don't get it!"
"Maybe you just take it too seriously," Ryo suggested, "I mean, it's a game, not a live-or-die death match." Bakura snorted.
"You don't get it, do you," he growled, "I have to master this game! Once I do, I'll be able to defeat the pharaoh once and for all!" He started laughing manically, and lightening started flashing and thunder began to boom. Ryo just rolled his eyes.
"Who said he was going to challenge you to a game of Duel Monsters?" The hikari asked. Suddenly, Bakura stopped laughing, and the thunder and lightening left all of the sudden. The yami turned to his hikari. Ryo gulped.
"You're absolutely right!" Bakura yelled. Ryo looked at him, puzzled.
"What?"
"No one said that we had to play Duel Monsters," the darker half explained, "so that means that I could've been training for nothing! But how am I going to know which game he's going to challenge me with…"
"Maybe you'll just have to practice with every game you can think of," Ryo suggested rhetorically. But Bakura looked at him and smiled.
"Oh, you have got to be-"
"Ryo," Bakura shouted, "You're going to help me master every game imaginable!"
"What," the hikari squealed in disbelief, "Bakura, that's impossible! There are so many games from different times and regions! Some require more than two people to play, and some only require one! It's an impossible task!"
"We'll discuss it tomorrow," the yami said as he looked at the clock, "hey, it's already 11. You never did your homework!"
"Homework," Ryo asked, "you mean the work the teachers unnecessarily give us at the end of each class? No, I just do it the period before it's due."
"Nice," the yami admired.
Ryo walked into the grocery store with a grim look on his face. He sighed when he thought about what his yami had planned the night before. But he didn't say anything about it all day, so maybe he had forgotten about it. But that was highly unlikely, considering the fact that he remembered that he swore revenge on the pharaoh about three thousand years ago, and he still remembered.
But it didn't hurt to hope, right?
He picked up everything they needed, such as creampuffs, milk, cereal, steak, eggs, and soda. He paid for it, and then went home. But when he walked through the door, his mouth went agape, and he dropped the food.
All around his apartment, were different games; board games, card games, video games, everything.
"Guess he didn't forget after all," Ryo mumbled helplessly to himself. He picked up the groceries and headed for the kitchen, where, sure enough, his yami was sitting at the table with a smile on his face. The hikari tried to ignore him as he put the food away.
"So which one do you want to start with first, Ryo?" Bakura asked once the hikari had finished.
Ryo sighed.
"This is going to take a long time…"
A/N: Will Ryo be able to play all of the games? Will anyone save him? Will I eventually get a life and leave this place?
The chapters may be short, so sorry about that, but hey, that means that I'll be able to update this one faster! (Once I update my other multis)
Please leave a review! (And I know it's short, so I don't want to hear anything about it!)
