The first conversation Ryou had with Thief King Bakura was weird to say the least, and from Bakura's point of view, annoying. The younger one was annoyingly innocent. The Thief King shivered just thinking about that conversation.

Ryou's eyes snapped open, fear settling in the moment he opened them. Where was he? This most certainly was NOT his room, as it was too dark, too foreign, and too weird. The walls were made of stone, various engravings carved into it. The whole room reminded him of a tomb.

"So, you are my pathetic other half."

Ryou spun around, already wide eyes widening even more, coming face to face with the speaker.

The other man smirked, "Easily frightened, aren't you? Tch, no wonder, you look like a rabbit."

Ryou frowned, saying the first thing that came into his head, "Do rabbits usually wear stripes?"

The man laughed, "I guess not" He paused then, contemplating his next words, "Your name. What is it?"

"It's impolite to not offer your own name first."

The man sighed, "It's Bakura, OK? Now for your name."

"Ryou Bakura"

"And your last name?"

"It's Bakura."

"That's MY name. What's. Your. Last. Name?" Bakura was slowly losing whatever patience he still had.

"Bakura," Ryou was confused. He had said his last name at least 3 times, so why was he still demanding it? Was he hard of hearing? No Bakura had heard his first name alright. So what was it because?

"Didn't you hear, me you great oaf? WHAT IS YOUR LAST NAME?"

Definately hard of hearing thinking HE was hard of hearing. Ryou sighed, he really did hate yelling.

"IT 'S BAKURA!"

"YES I KNOW IT'S ME! WHAT IS YOUR LAST NAME?"

Ohhhh...so he thought that he was saying His (Bakura's) name. He still wasn't sure about him being hard of hearing though...

"MY LAST NAME IS BAKURA!"

"Why didn't you just say so?"

"I SAID MY LAST NAME FOR TWELVE MINUTES!"

"Why are you yelling?"

"So you're not hard of hearing?"

Bakura scoffed, "Of course not!"

Ryou blinked innocently, "Well you acted like it."

Bakura sighed. Oh God, why did HE get the idiotic hikari? Why couldn't the Pharaoh get the idiotic one instead? Why? Why? Why?

Bakura shivered. Yes, he NEVER wanted to go through THATagain. He didn't want to be annoyed again. Hell, he would prefer fighting against Zorc AND the Pharaoh at the same time. At least his hikari no longer bother him...

"Bakura, could I please have some advice on my clothes? I just can't seem to find what to wear..."

Damn you Murphy's Law. Damn. You.

And that's the story. I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, so don't sue me. Flames shall be used to toast Firey and Jigsaw's marshmallows. Flamers shall be fed to the Komodo Dragons, as they have been running out of food. Half that was flashback, wasn't it? People shall hate me. This popped into me head randomly and was written in 5 minutes, so please excuse the lameness. Also please tell me what you think and how I could improve my writing.
