With Ryou.
Ring, ring, ring, ri-
"Hello? Who the bloody hell calls at… two in the fucking morning?" A sleepy yet sharp toned voice spoke into the phone.
"Ryou, don't be like that. I know you're not a morning person but I called you five times prior and you need to get up." A deep, gentle voice came from the phone.
"Officer Odion?" Ryou groaned but sat up anyway and began messing with one of his many piercings in his right ear. "Why are you calling me?"
"Ryou just call me Odion no titles please, and I am calling you because you need to get up!" Odion said laughing into the phone.
"Fuck it, I'm up. I'm up." Ryou mumbled into the phone. "Again, why are you calling me?"
"It's about your flight to Japan."
"What about my flight? Damn it, was it pushed back again? Shit, that's the third time already this has happened! Malik is going to be upset by the news and I don't have the heart to-" Ryou began but was cut off.
"No, no, let me finish Ryou. Listen it was not that, your flight has actually been pushed up." Odion said. Ryou, now temporarily fully awake, just blinked and stared at the phone speechless. "Ryou…Ryou you still there?"
Finally coming to his senses, Ryou was about to cheer for joy before an uneasy feeling came over him. Despite that feeling, one thought kept rolling through his mind. I-I'm going to see my family…I am going to see Malik again.
"Y-yeah I'm…I'm still here…" Ryou's voice came out shaky and slow. "You just surprised me that is all. B-but I was not supposed to move for another two weeks. Not that I am unhappy about this…just why the sudden move, that's all?"
After a minuet passed Odion sighed. "Ok Ryou, its two things. One being that there is very strong sand storm coming to Cairo that will last for who knows how long. It's supposed to me the strongest recorded. And second…"another sigh came. "Some of his 'friends' are looking for you and Malik. They want revenge on you two for having him thrown in Jail. My sources say that they are looking for both of you, but they will be satisfied if they only have one."
Ryou panicked began to hyperventilate. NO! We finally got away from him! His gone and in jail! Why would some of his cronies even think to touch us!? I can't let them hurt Malik. I WON'T! I-I can't do that to him…he should have never been brought into this mess in the first place.
"D-do they know where Malik is? Is he safe!?" Ryou demanded over the phone. He could not forgive himself if anything happened to Malik. He was his brother, his only family.
"Yes Ryou. Don't worry Malik is fine. They don't know either of your locations. But we need to get you out of Cairo now because they have been seen heading your way after getting a tip from an unknown source." Ryou let out a breath he had been holding.
"Good, at least there is some good news out of all this. I'll call Malik about me coming home early then."
"No Ryou. You should not do that." Odion said over the phone in a mischievous way.
"What, why not?" Ryou whined into the phone, now confused.
"Well first off you need to pack because you flight leaves in about two and a half hours. And second why don't you surprise him. Your first day of school as a junior starts today you know. Let him think of it as a…welcome to school present." Ryou could hear him grinning at the latter and he laughed.
"I don't see why I have to go to school. It seems like a waste of time."
"Aw, come on Ryou. It would be funny! You know how he makes a scene when he is surprised. Besides, I already enrolled you at his school. No going back"
Ryou sighed but smiled none the less. "Ok, fine I will surprise him at school. But fair warning," Ryou laughed. "Next time I see you, make sure you keep an eye on your watch. I might take it as a souvenir to remember you by." Ryou laughed into the phone.
"I know you're a major kelpto Ryou but don't do that again!" Odion whined in a very girly way. "I really like this watch! IT LIGHTS UP!"
Ryou laughed at this again. "Ok, I will consider not taking it with-…wait…Odion…you woke me up at 2 in the morning to tell me that I have to be ready in about 2 hours? Why did you wait till now to tell me?" Ryou said in a deathly low voice and calm voice.
"Y-yes...well you see Ryou…that's a really funny story, heh it's just….SEE YA! GOTTA GO! MEET YOU AT THE AIR PORT!" Odion said quickly.
"Odion…DON'T YOU HANG UP ON ME!" Ryou yelled into the phone but the line was already dead. Ryou was gripping the phone tightly enough to crack the plastic case.
I am going to kill him. I don't care if he saved our sorry hides and is finally getting me on a plane to my brother. I am going to kill him.
Ryou's eye twitched in annoyance but soon calmed down and looked at the clock. "Three o' clock" It took a minuet but after realizing what time it was, he was up in a flash running around his room. "CRAP I AM GOING TO BE LATE!"
Ryou quickly ran to the bathroom and stepped in to that a quick shower. He did not bother taking how his many earrings cause to take them all out and put them back in would waste what little time he had left.
After nearly falling asleep in the warm shower twice within 5 minutes, he deemed himself clean and quickly grabbed a set of clothes and dressed. He wore a form fitting red v-neck shirt, tight black low-riding pants with a couple chains hanging from his hips, combat boots, a black beenie that covered up a little bit of his long white hair, a two leather bracelets around his wrists, and a very deep red chocker. It was an outfit Malik gave him as a present when they were allowed to go shopping for his birthday.
After dressing, he grabbed his backpack and threw in; his only two change of clothes, his story journal, pencils and pen, his late sister's locket, and a picture of Malik and him when they were at the hospital the day they were rescued as well as a couple other pictures of them. With all of his possessions neatly packed away, he quickly ran out of his room and into the kitchen of his safe house he has been staying at under the protection of the police. He left a note saying 'Thank you for everything, going home'.
He quickly left the house without looking back. The elderly couple was friendly enough and even offered for them to take him in. He politely declined their offer though. But after much persuasion, Ryou finally agreed to come back and visit them and even have this place as a safe house for him and his brother if anything were the happen.
After quickly haling a cab, he made his way to Cairo's airport lost in his thoughts. I wonder how Malik is going to take me being back so soon. He will most likely cause a seen by shouting something and say I am a ghost and flick salt on me yelling 'be gone evil demon! You are not me brother!' It was funny the first time he did that to me but now it's just annoying. After letting his mind wonder and falling asleep for the rest of the ride, he was awoken with a start at the airport.
Still in his half awake state, he paid the driver and walked into the airport, backpack in toll. He nearly ran into Odion after entering.
"Hey Ryou, you're late! I have you ticket right here though. You have all of your stuff?" To answer his question he lifted his back pack into the air. "That's all you brought? I thought you-" But Odion was cut off by Ryou.
"I am not fucking taking anything that pig gave me to wear. I'd rather leave what's in the past there and focus on the future." Ryou deadpanned.
"Yes, young grasshopper." Odion mock bowed and grinned at Ryou who could not help but smile back. "And promise me right when you see Malik, slug him as hard as you can and say 'that was for not going through with the bet' He will know what it means."
At this Ryou laughed. "I promise to hit him as hard as I can muster." Ryou turned to go through customs but heard Odion call his name one more time.
"Oh Ryou! One more thing. Can you please try not to do that mix language speaking thing when you get there. I know you do it when you're angry or embarrassed or even frustrated but-" But Odion was cut off again.
"Odion, I will try not to. Ok?" Ryou smiled at his friend who pulled him into a Bone crushing hug. "C-can't breathe! Need…air…" With that He quick let go of Ryou chuckling. "Promise to come for a visit?"
"I promise. Take care of yourself Ryou. Now hurry up you plane takes off in a half an hour." With a final wave good-bye, Ryou turned to leave and check in with his plane.
After watching Ryou clear customs, he went to check the time but noticed him watch was missing. "RYOU! I TOLD YOU NOT TO TAKE IT!" Odion yelled. In the distance he could hear Ryou laughing hard.

In another taxi.
That is the last bloody time I am riding of a crowded plane. Stupid women giving excuses about their crying children being newborns, stupid brat kicking my seat, stupid old geezer drooling on my in his sleep, stupid metal scanners making me take out all of my earrings 'just to be safe' and worst of all stupid Starbuck giving me a large decafe coffee. Now I have to rely on the 12 packets of sugar I put in it to keep me awake. You know what, screw the world…ok ew….how would that be even possible? AGH! Nope, not going to dwell on THAT image in my head not edged into my head. Ryou thought as he was silently cursing out of habit in his mix of languages as he was nearing the school grounds. Oh well, at least I am here now. It's nearly been 2 months since I saw him last. He is in for quite a surprise.
After the taxi pulled up at the school's gates, he paid the driver and exited the vehicle, approaching the building.
Immediately, he could see what stereotype group each person belonged to; the jocks and cheerleaders over in their little popularity corner, the goths and punk rockers over against the side of the school, some smoking, others most likely writing poems and songs about random stuff. They're really good, well at least the ones Ryou heard when he went to a poetry slam once. The computer geeks and nerds were debating which software or comic super hero is better on the front steps. There are the otakus and fangirls a few paces from the step currently either streaming Netflix on their IPods or fawning over their favorite boys at school at nearby tree.
Ryou could not really see who it was, but he knew there were two in the crowd. Ryou got a glimpse of white hair and another with tan skin somewhere in the mix that were now heading into the school engulfed in the crowd of girls..
Ryou sighed. At least I will get the 'whole high school experience' I have heard so much about. Not like I wanted it. It's all just a bunch of masks everyone wears. I can see most of them just by looking at them…well except that blonde bimbo cheerleader; she is exactly like her stereotype. Oh well, I better go face the music and 'live up the dream'. Bullshit metaphors and unwanted hassle more like it.
With one more sigh, Ryou walked into the school building taking a sip of his coffee, ignoring all the stares he was getting from everyone on the way. After quickly finding the main office and getting his language speaking under control, Ryou walked up to the secretary. "Um. Hi I am new here? I just arrived-"
"SHUSH!" the woman cut him off.
Ryou just stared at her a couple moments and looked around the office with a bored look on his face. After looking at all there is was to offer such as bobble head here and there, he decided to try to talk to the secretary again. "Look ma'am I just need a time table, I was set up to attend here with my brother and-"
"I will be with you in a moment." The secretary said sternly while glaring at him before returning to what she was working on before he came in. Ryou just glared right back and finished off his coffee.
After about five more minutes of waiting as well as frustration growing in Ryou, she took off her reading glasses and turned to Ryou with a fake smile. "Now what was it that you wanted?"
Ryou gave her a fake smile in return before continuing. "I just need a time table. I am new here, my brother already attends. He was expecting me to show up."
The secretary put back on her glasses and turned to the computer ready to search for the needs information."Name."
"Ryou." He deadpanned.
"You full name, smart ass." She gave him a bored look.
"That is my full name, just Ryou." He glared at her.
"Oh so your full name is Just Ryou? Well nice to meet you. That's a really weird name." She mocked him.
"Look who's being the smart ass now" Ryou muttered but loud enough for the woman to hear it. She glared at him for a minute before sighing.
"You said you had a brother?"
"Yeah Malik, He's my adopted brother."
"Whatever I don't want you life story. I take it he is that junior I saw in here yesterday after getting in a fight that he so happens to claim as 'self defense'? Is he an Egyptian, blonde hair, purple eyes, an inch or two taller that you?"
"Yes that is him." Ryou's frustration grew even more, but this time towards his brother getting in a fight.
After typing in a little more, she turned back to Ryou after printing out the schedule "Here is your schedule for the year and have a nice life in hell." She finished sweetly and turned back to her computer after handing Ryou his timetable.
"Damn bitch. Who Does she think she is? The Queen on England? I swear she is going to get itone of these days." Ryou cursed under his breath as he walked out of the office and into the halls that were now quiet and empty.
Looking down at his schedule, he began looking for his form room which seemed to be located in friggen Narnia for all he knew. After a couple turns down random hallways, he finally came upon the room that matched the one on his timetable and walked up to it. "Hello new hell known as room A-2, such a disappointed to see you." And with that Ryou quietly knocked on the door to his form.
Soon after knocking, he heard someone call for him to come in. Taking a deep breath, Ryou slowly opened the door and walked into the room. "Um, Hi? I am kind of new here and my time table said this is my form? Mr. Hittle?" Ryou questioned, while looking down at his timetable.
"RYOU, HOW THE HELL ARE YOU HERE?!" With the sudden screech he looked up and noticed a bunch of shocked faces as well as a very animated face of Malik. Ryou could see that most of the emotions running across his brother's face were confusion, happiness, and shock.
Malik was a tall, tanned Egyptian. He was dressed in simple tight black pants, with blue converse. A deep blue T-shirt with words on it saying, 'it's an unfair life. So many dates, so little time' with a black windbreaker over top that was zipped up half way. Accompanying his clothing was his gold arm bands, chocker, and two earrings he received from his parents. His hair was platinum blonde and his eyes were a light lavender and kohl out lining them, which brought out the color even more.
Ryou noticed that he must not have been the only new transfer because in the front of the classroom were two tall, tanned, and very muscular teens. One with platinum hair sticking out everywhere and the other with white silvery hair that ended at his shoulders. Both had an expression of shock yet amusement seeing how each could understand one of the two languages Ryou had spoken.
"Hi Malik, I see I am in your form? Stupid secretary on her bloody period. Any way…why is everyone looking at me like that?" Ryou asked, not realizing that he has slipped into his habit of mixing two of his fluent languages together. After saying this, the white haired one burst out laughing, while the platinum haired one now watching in amusement.
"Malik, who is this? Is he another new student that you know?" Mr. Hittle asked Malik.
"Eh sorry sir, umm…well how to explain…he's my adopted brother when I was living in Egypt as said two months prior. He was supposed to come in two weeks but…well hehe, here he is without telling me" Malik said giving Ryou a glare with his last statement whose response was a look saying I'll tell you later.
"And why can't we understand him?" Mr. Hittle questioned with slight amusement in his voice.
"U-um. He has this thing when he gets frustrated, angry, or embarrassed, he kind of mixes two languages he knows together, but you know, unknowingly. Right now he is speaking Arabic and French I think? But I don't know. I can't speak it."
"Fuck! I'm doing it again!? Great, what's going to happen next the fucking queen of England coming through the bloody door as a zombie? Now THAT would be a sight to see. Listen here! I demand to eat your brains this instant!"Ryou cursed causing both the two students in the front of the room and Malik to laugh at what they could understand. After calming down enough,
"He is speaking French Mr. Hittle. Lucky for you I am fluent." Said the silvery white haired student at the front of the class. He was dressed in a plain green T-shirt and black slightly baggy jeans with regular gym shoes.
"What could you pick up from before when he first entered…Akefia was it?"
"Yes sir and from what I got he said hi to Malik, everyone looking and…" He chuckled again. "Just a thought about the secretary's attitude towards him earlier today."
Mr. Hittle groaned. "Oh God don't tell me it's Ms. Smith. I have lunch duty with her today. That old cougar is always bitchy, epically when she is on her period. (1)" This caused the whole class to laugh
Ryou laughed as well but more out of embarrassment. "But it's true. She was being a Royal Bitch. Last time I try to be polite, to a woman on like her period."
Akefia chuckled once again and walked up to Ryou. "I know right, but all bitchy secretaries on their periods aside. Ryou is it? Focus on one language. French or Arabic. Ok?"
Ryou nodded and focused on speaking French. "I focused on speaking French. Is that ok?"
"Yeah it is. Do you know when this all will wear off? And seeing as you just responded to you brother I assume you understand when people are speaking Japanese."
Ryou thought about this for a moment and looked up at Akefia. "It depends really. The longest it's ever run was about twenty minutes. And yes I can understand him. Just can't speak it."
"Ok let me tell the teacher." Akefia relayed Ryou's message back to the teacher who nodded understandingly.
"Ok thank you Mr. Akefia for translating. Now getting back to the matter at hand, will you three please introduce yourselves. Ryou start us off state your full name, hobby, a sport if you play any, and just for the hell of it favorite color. Akefia you don't mind translating until this wears off right?" The teacher I asked.
"Not at all sir." Akefia replied with a grin.
"Um. Well my name is Ryou, I like to write stories, I did gymnastics, and favorite color is…Lime I guess." Ryou said with a smile at the end.
Akefia relayed the message and right when he was going to introduce himself the teacher interrupted him. "Ryou, I asked for your full name not just your first."
"I did give you my full name…Its just Ryou…nothing else…" Ryou's face turned expressionless.
Akefia looked at Ryou suspiciously before relaying the message. Before the teacher could press anymore one the subject, Malik spoke up. "Mr. Hittle, that's a touchy subject for Ryou, you know…family and all." Ryou sent Malik a thankful look when Mr. Hittle accepted the reason and motioned for Akefia to continue the introductions.
"I am Akefia Touzoku, I enjoy reading, I play Rugby or as Americans call it football, and favorite color would have to be a deep red." When Akefia finished his introduction, he was looking at Ryou's chocker and neck out of the corner of his eye. At this, he immediately took a small side step away with a slight but unnoticeable blush across his cheeks.
The Egyptian who has kept quiet through all that has happened finally turned to the class to speak. "I'm Marik Ishtal, I like to swim, I also play rugby or like Akefia said Football, and my favorite color is light purple." Ryou noticed that through the whole introduction, Marik would not take his eyes of Malik as vice versa, but said nothing.
"Well now with introductions out of the way, let's find you a place to sit." Mr. Hittle scanned over the room. "Ok Ryou, you can sit next to you brother and in front of Bakura. Please raise your hands." Immediately after saying this, both raised their hands.
As Ryou was walking back to his desk, he finally noticed the other albino in class. To say he was surprised was an understatement. He was wearing a black '21 Pilots' T-shirt (2), a leather jacket, tight black jeans, navy blue converses, as well as black stud earrings. His white hair was wild and untamed, with eyes that were a dark mahogany color.
He took his backpack off and sat down but not before he noticed the evil grin directed at him on Bakura's face. Great. Just what I need, a creepy doppelganger. Hmm maybe one of us will die for unknown reasons soon like the legend says. (3) That would be scary and yet ironic.
"Right then, Next…" Mr. Hittle Sighed, "Please don't make me regret this decision you two. Akefia please to the right of Bakura and Marik; please take the seat to the left of Malik." The two nodded and went to their seats. "Right, now that all is right with the world. Your classes begin in 5 minutes, you can talk, write, doodle, sleep, put mustaches on people's faces that actually did fall asleep, I don't care. Just don't murder anyone. Ok? I am not going to jail because of you adolescents." When everyone nodded to him, Mr. Hittle promptly laid his head down on his desk, trying to get a few more minutes of sleep
Ryou laid his head down on his arms, the amount of sugar in his coffee with lack of sleep and jet lag finally taking its toll on him.
Right when he was about to doze off, he felt someone jab his head roughly from the left. Ryou lifted his head to glare at whom disturbed his almost peaceful sleep, only to remember that he was seated next to his brother. "Yes oh wise brother of mine? How may I assist you this fine day?"
"YAY YOU'RE BACK TO NORMAL! With that aside, I want answers now." Malik said, his eyes hardening with this last statement.
Raising his hands in mock surrender, Ryou now sat up all the way and turned to his brother. "Ok, I will explain myself and why I came up out of nowhere, but not here. We can talk at home."
"And why not here? I find it very cozy place. With the hard wooden desks, the beautiful scenery of a white board notes, and most of all the prying, nosy bastards like you Bakura." Malik said sarcastically.
"Oh hardy har, har Malik. You're a comedian."
"So you were being nosey!" Malik exclaimed. This only caused Bakura to laugh along with Akefia next to him.
"What are friends for, Malik? Prying their way into other friend's personal lives is all a part of the package when you sign up. Speaking of personal lives, aren't you going to introduce me here to the little creampuff sitting next to you." Bakura said with a wicked grin casted towards Ryou.
"Creampuff? So I am my favorite pastry? Please tell me I don't have to resort to cannibalism to enjoy the pastry." Ryou said with a sly grin.
Bakura just chuckled at this while Malik face palmed. "Great, thirty second after meeting Bakura and he has already poisoned you mind like everyone else he has met."
"Like yourself Malik? You are his friend after all." Ryou said.
"Silence!"
"Ishtar, I take offense to that. I am no toxin." Bakura scowled at Malik who just stuck is tongue out at him but then 'yelped' very loudly as a sudden sharp pain came to his shoulder.
"Fuck Ryou, I was insulting Bakura, not you!"Malik nearly yelled as he rubbed his abused arm.
"Oh Malik, he is just disturbed that you are mistakenly comparing works of art like myself to dangerous toxins." Bakura said very egotistically.
"Don't get a big head Bakura." Malik burst out laughing at this while Bakura narrowed his eyes at Ryou. "I only did it because Odion, a friend of mine, told me to saying something about Malik not going through with the bet. I don't know." Ryou shrugged while fiddling with Odion's watch.
"I THOUGHT HE WAS BLUFFING WHEN HE SAID HE WOULD GET THAT MONKEY! No way was I kissing it, that is just plain gross and wrong one so many levels…hey Ryou…where did you get the watch?" Malik said out of nowhere after noticing what Ryou was doing.
"The certain friend you did not kiss the monkey for. He woke me up at 2 in the bloody morning! Two hours after I finally fall asleep. I won't lie, it is a cool watch." Ryou smirked to himself despite his changing behavior.
"So you are working on 2 hours of sleep plus jet lag and you took his watch?" He got a nod as an answer just before Ryou laid his head back down, hoping to get some more sleep somehow. Malik just groaned at this. "Damn it!"
"What is it?" Akefia asked after listening to their conversation with mild interest and amusement.
"Well you see, Doctor Banner over here turns into the hulk very easily when sleep deprived." After saying this, Malik was hit with a note. Upon opening it he read, 'Fuck you Malik. Lots of love Ryou.' Malik immediately turned to look at Ryou after hearing sniggering coming from behind him only to see his brother flipping him off. "You're such a gentleman Ryou. Always a pleasure to have you around."
In the mean time, Bakura began on of his leisurely activities of messing with the innocent kids in class. At the moment he spotted a small sleeping star-fished haired boy named Yugi as his first target. Taking his chance he shot a spit ball his way, but at the last second the kid sitting behind said target moved at the wrong time to get a spit ball to the side of the head, just as the bell rang.
Using the mass of students leaving as a cover, Bakura immediately hid the evidence and left the room after realizing it was the captain of the wrestling team Ushio. He could most likely take Ushio, but more times than none, he will get other members on his team to outnumber you.
After getting pelted with a spitball, Ushio turned in the direction is came from and narrowed his eyes at Ryou, who was now finishing packing up for his first class, mistaking him for Bakura. After glaring daggers into the back of the boys head as he left the room with his brother, he silently vowed to make him pay for such a mistake and stormed out of the room soon after.
But in the back of the room still gathering his things sat Marik, seeing everything.
