See y'all!

"STOP! Stop the thief!"

The old shopkeeper shouted as he ran after the white haired culprit chasing him down the dark streets of domino.

"Shit!"

Said thief cursed to himself as he ran passed the closed shops and into a smaller avenue.

'Well Bakura you have really done it this time! You have robbed banks and museums with the highest security and you get caught robbing a game shop?! How could I've become so reckless? Oh right it's that boys fault, why couldn't he get these stupid cards himself? Oh that's right he never asked me to get them for him… Fuck.'

The thief ran down the streets and dove between two buildings into an ally. He looked around for an escape route climbing up on nearest container forcing himself up the fire ladder towards the roof.

"Stop him!"

The old man was exhausted stopping to catch his breath.

"Wait here gramps I'll get him!" A boy with spiky dark hair appeared behind the old man running after the pale thief.

"Bloody hell he's fast!"

Bakura said as his new younger chaser was climbing the ladder getting closer and closer. Bakura threw himself over the edge of the roof stumbling before continuing his escape with his feet smattering against the concrete. Suddenly a pair of soft hands pulled him behind a big door leading into the building. Bakura heard the tapping sound of his chasers footsteps from behind the door.

"Where the hell did that limey fruitcake go?!"

The boy cursed to himself as he continued the chase in the totally wrong direction. Bakura let out a sigh in relief as he fell exhausted with his back towards the door catching his breath. Curious about his savoir he looked up and stared into a pair of deep lavender colored eyes who's owner was bending over him.

"MARIK?!"

Bakura screamed in surprise pressing his back towards the door.

"AHAHAH! Bakuraa you should have seen your face, priceless! It was so pathetic, but I'm surprised Yugi got you running like that, he's usually such a timid and quiet boy."

The blond Egyptian smiled from ear to ear leaning closer towards the sweaty thief.

"Who the hell is Yugi? And what in bloody hell are you doing here?!"

Bakura wiped the sweat of his face and pushed Marik away so that he could sit up without being pressed against the door.

"Yugi? Oh he's just a guy in my class, he practically lives in that game shop his grandpa owns, HATE his friggin' guts!..."

Marik suddenly started spacing out as if he was thinking of an extremely stupid plan to achieve vengeance on someone.

'Certainly hope it doesn't contain anything that has to do with rearranging sock drawers.'

Bakura shook his head at the thought, not even Marik could be that stupid… could he?

"Marik!"

Bakura snapped his finger causing the other teen to fall out of his trance.

"Why the hell are you here? How did you know I was here?"

"Oh! I saw you running from my window, I live here you see! Apartment A4 on the fifth floor, don't ask me why they name it like that I didn't build the friggin' house! But you think that they would have some kind of structure or system for it…"

"Marik please shut it you are giving me a bloody headache…"
Marik curled up his lips in some kind of pout and snorted angrily at Bakura for interrupting him.

"Hey! I just saved you y'know you should show a little bit more… What is that?!"

Marik picked up a bag lying tossed by his feet causing Bakura's heart to take an extra step chest.

"Ah! Marik that's mine let go of it!"

"Duel Monsters! And it's the packs I wanted to, the ones that contain the rare god cards! Bakura do you play? When I told you about how much I wanted these you didn't seem interested at all but this… this is amasing why didn't you tell me?!"

Bakura swallowed hard staring at the bag full of stolen cards that he had been working so hard to get.

'Bollocks I was going to say I found them by a coincident or something and give them to him. I didn't want him to know I went to such trouble getting them for him! What if he suspects something?! Oh crap, oh crap, oh crap…'

"Bakuraa?! Is it me or did your face become paler than usually? I mean cause that would be almost impossible considering you're so pale and all…Hallo?!"

Marik waved in front of Bakura's face trying to get a reaction from the guy.

"Eh wah?!"

"I asked you if you play the children's card game for friggs sake! Then you became all pale and stuff! Now answer dame it!"

"Eh… Ra no! I would never play such a stupid game! I was…eh.. I was going to sell them… Yes sell them! I need a place to stay, after living on your own all your life it can be ruff you know hehe…"

It wasn't a complete lie up until now he had survived by thieving and cheating his way into hotel beds or stayed the night at some random one night stand. He would never admit it and he didn't mind that much but deep down he wanted a place to call home just like everyone else in the world.

"AHW! Poor fluffy why didn't you tell me you needed a place to stay?!"

"Don't call me fluffy…"

Bakura growled as Marik pulled him down the stairs towards a hall of apartment doors. He stopped by the one furthest down to the right wearing a metal sign reading "4A", he pulled the door open and let Bakura in not even bothering taking his shoes off. Bakura stepped into a hall connected to a small but very tidy kitchen and a medium large living room, it had a huge window with view over Bakura's escape route and there was also a small balcony. The door to the bathroom was open so that it was visible from the hall, it was big and beautiful kind of making it feel so out of place next to the rest of the apartment, even though Bakura of course hadn't seen what was behind the last door next to it.

"I live on my own and it's pretty small but it would be so much fun to have some company!"

Marik exclaimed ecstatic. Bakura looked at the dark teen not sure if he had got the boys words right.

"Marik are you seriously suggesting… that I should live here with you?!"

"Well yes! Do you see any other homeless thief around here?!"

Bakura sighed.

"Marik you really shouldn't let thieves into your house and let alone let them live there!"

"Not a house it's an apartment!"

Bakura slammed his hand over his face shaking his head.

"Not the point Marik…"

"Ahw come on! Why not? I'm alone you need a place to stay win/win!"

Marik smiled.

"Marik I have no money to pay rent or any experiences to offer."

"You don't need to give me anything Bakura! Besides you can cook and clean and stuff it's not so hard to learn!"

Bakura looked at Marik doubtfully.

"Still…"

"I can take these cards as payment!"

"Deal!"

Bakura almost shouted as he grabbed Marik's hand into a handshake.

"Great! Now there's only one bedroom so you'll have to sleep on the couch until later if you don't wann sleep by my feet. I've always wanted my own kitty!"

"Marik Im not a kitty."

"But-"

"Not a kitty!"

Bakura took of his shoes and walked into the kitchen to look more closely on what was going to become his new home. Then a note on the kitchen table caught his intressed.

"Marik what is this?"

"That's my evil master plan!"

"And what the bloody hell is that supposed to be?!"

Bakura pointed at some weird gray doodle on the paper.

"Oh! That's Yugi's sock drawer."
