Summary: Yami and Bakura decided to stay in this time era, leaving their friends in the past. During their time in the future, Bakura and Honda started to fall for the former Pharaoh. Who will win the Pharaoh's heart?
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu – Gi – Oh. I do own the plot to the story. That counts for something!
"Give it up, Bakura! You're down to your last few hundred life points," Atem shouted to his opponent, who was about ten yards away from himself. The white hair teen sneered at the former Pharaoh's comment, even though he was right.
"This isn't over until I say that this duel is over, Pharaoh," the tomb robber stated with much venom as he can, snidely adding the other yami's old title with a devious smirk. The tri colored hair teen glared threateningly towards his opponent, making the other male's smirk to grow larger.
"C'mon, Atem! You can kick this good for nothing tomb robber's ass," Honda shouted with as much enthusiasm as he possibly can. Yūgi chuckled at his friend's antics, making the taller teen to blush a light pink. Atem smiled at the brunette before turning his attention back Bakura, resulting Honda's blush to rival that of a tomato.
"Just make your move, thief, or else you forfeit this duel and Atem wins yet again," Jonouchi stated, crossing his arms and glared whole heartedly at his friend's opponent.
"Geez. Seto really has changed you," Anzu said with an agitated sigh, rubbing her temples to sooth an oncoming headache. The blonde looked at his female friend, confused at what she had just said. The female brunette sighed impatiently before waving her hand to dismiss the thought and turned her attention back towards the game.
"Shut it, blondie. I know that I have to draw a card now. I was just thinking of a strategy to turn this duel around. Something that you lack in," Bakura shot back towards Jonouchi, picking up a card from the top of his deck. The former tomb robber looked at the card, another smirk forming on lips as he started devising a plan to finally defeat his toughest opponent. "I use the magic card, Change of Heart," the white hair teen shouted, activating his and his hikari's favorite magic card. "Now your Dark Magician is against you! How sad. Oh well, not my loss. Now, Dark Magician, use dark magic attack on Atem's Fierce Knight!"
The other yami yawned at the attack, making Bakura to give him a funny, yet quizzical look. From the side lines, Ryou was shaking his head in disappointment. Bakura, you baka! Either you're a complete idiot or you were oogling Atem during all of his turns. Did you forget about the faced down card he has on the field? the white hair former hikari thought, predicting his yami's opponent's next move.
"Did you forget about my face down card or are you just plain stupid?" the former Pharaoh asked, a smirk forming on his lips. "You just activated my trap card, Mesmeric Control, reducing my Dark Magician's attack points by eight hundred, giving my Gaia of the Fierce Knight the advantage it has against my Dark Magician," the tri colored hair teen explained as his knight counter attacked his Dark Magician, destroying it from the game.
Shit. I'm screwed now. I have no monsters out on the field, Bakura thought, biting his lip as he tried doing some last minute thinking before he lost the game.
"Now, destroy his life points directly," the tri colored hair teen shouted as his Fierce Knight went straight to his opponent and attacked, getting rid of the few hundred life points he had left.
"Dammit," Bakura whispered, looking down in shame as the duel ended.
"Yeah, Atem! I knew you could do it," Honda shouted, waving his arms in the air to show his excitement. He, followed by Yūgi, Anzu, and Jonouchi, ran to the former Pharaoh to congratulate him on yet another victory against Bakura. Ryou quickly congratulated the yami before slowly walking over to his yami.
"Dammit. Why do I always loose to him?" the said yami muttered quietly, looking down towards the ground in shame. "I always think things through, but during the last couple of games, I just can't think straight." Soon after those words left his mouth, the former tomb robber's knees gave out, making him fall on the hard concrete floor. Ryou rolled his eyes at his yami's actions, but nonetheless sat down right beside him.
"I don't know for sure, but it might have something to do with your crush on him," the former hikari explained, placing a reassuring hand on his friend's shoulder.
Once Bakura's mind slowly processed what Ryou just said, a blush started to form on his porcelain face as he jumped up in shock at his former hikari's assumption. The shorter one of the two chuckled at the yami's reaction, knowing him too well for what he'll say, or rather shout, next.
/How can you even say that, you baka! I – I – I don't nor will ever like that damned Pharaoh!/ Bakura shouted through his and his former hikari's still working mind link, pointing towards the said male. The shorter white hair male winced at the loudness of his former yami, rubbing his temples in a soothing manner to prevent a massive headache to start.
/Like I said, it was just an assumption. Though now I have an odd feeling that I'm right because of your defensiveness you just shouted at me./ Ryou replied matter – of – factly towards his companion, smirking at him before standing up. Bakura was blushing a shade of red that can put a tomato to shame. His secret that he kept, even from his former hikari, was exposed to the said person.
/I – it was not defensiveness! How could you even think that? Me? Liking that good for nothing Pharaoh? That's l – l – like a sick joke!/ the former tomb robber shouted, his face going more red by the second.
/Yeah, yeah. He's coming over here by the way./ Ryou sighed, shaking his head and crossing his arms in annoyance. The taller teen jumped a little before trying his hardest to get rid of his blush.
/What do I do? What should I say?/ Bakura rambled, almost tempted to pull his hair right off his head. He glared at his former hikari when he heard a soft chuckled escape the said person's mouth.
/Just be yourself, baka./
"Good game, Bakura," Atem said with a small smile as he was walking towards the two white hair males. It took all of Bakura's self control to not blush in front of the other former yami.
"Yeah. Well, I let you win," the former tomb robber shot back, sneering towards his enemy/crush. "Plus, my mind wasn't even on the game. It was somewhere else." The former Pharaoh chuckled before shaking the other teen's hand, sending a jolt of excitement right up his arm and through his body.
"Well, don't think too hard. I don't want my best opponent to be dead because of brain damage," were Atem's last words before returning to his friends.
/That… could have gone a bit better./ Ryou said before turning towards the direction of his house and started walk in said direction.
Yeah. It could have gone a bit better, Bakura agreed before sighing in disappointment and started to follow his friend home.
Where everyone else is, they were all chattering about random things. They were all talking about off subject topics. From Atem's win against Bakura to hanging out with one another. This all last until Jonouchi had to leave so that he can meet up with Seto for their lunch date. Anzu also had to leave because she made shopping plans with Mai and she didn't want to miss having a girl's day with her best friend. Yūgi needed to leave because he had to take his shift at the Kame Shop so that Sugoroku could get some things for his shop, leaving Honda and Atem by themselves.
Yūgi probably didn't have to work. I bet he wanted Atem to get to know me by himself so that we can hook up. I need to do that on my own, Honda thought as he shoved his hands into his pockets, looking around.
"Do you wanna get a bite to eat or do you have something to do?" the tri color hair teen asked, slightly tilting his head to the side to show his attention towards the other teen. The brunette looked the other way so that he can hide a blush that started to form on his cheeks.
"Where would you wanna go?" the taller teen asked, looking at the other male, knowing full well that his blush resided, as he waited for him to answer.
"We can try this new burger joint that isn't far from here," the former Pharaoh replied, pointing in the direction of the burger joint while still looking at his friend.
"Hell yeah! I've been wanting to go to that place for some time, but I never got a chance to," Honda shouted in excitement as he started to slow jog towards the burger joint. He stopped after a few yards so that Atem could catch up to him.
"I can tell that you're excited," the former yami stated with a small chuckle as he started to walk towards his brunette friend. Once he was next to said person, Honda started walking with the shorter teen towards the burger joint.
"Yeah! I hear that this new place is supposed to be great! Like a five stars," the brunette exclaimed, punching the air above himself in excitement, cause his companion to chuckle.
"Did Jonouchi tell you this?" Atem asked, side glancing towards his friend as he shortly waited for a response.
"Yeah," Honda answered, scratching his cheek in embarrassment. "He dragged Seto once and then called me to say, or shout, that the food there was to die for. That was like a few weeks ago," Honda quickly explained, switching from scratching his cheek to rubbing the back of his head. The tri color hair teen chuckled lightly at his friend, shaking his head, knowing how his blonde friend is when it came to food.
"Well, now it's our turn to try this place out," the former Pharaoh said, a playful smile forming on his lips. This action made Honda's blush to return, but the other teen didn't take a notice to it. "Let's go," Atem shouted happily, starting to run to their destination. The brunette chuckled at his friend's action before running after him.
Yes. It's our turn to try this place out. Together," the taller teen thought as he caught up with the former Pharaoh, smiling an excited smile towards the smaller male.
Hm… So both Honda and Bakura like our little Atem. Shall rivalry form between these two? Who knows? Only I do! =p
Just in case if there are any confusion, yes, Yami [Atem] and Bakura have their own bodies. They just stayed in this time era because they enjoy it. They also have their Sennen Items with. Other things shall be explained throughout the story.
Till next chapter! =]
