Heavy rain poured down as a certain silver-haired boy allowed himself to be soaked.


/Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
your memories so clear/

He mourned as he slowly knelt down on the ground and faced his counterpart's grave. He didn't know what to say to him… he just wanted everything to be back to normal! It was his entire fault…

His entire fault…

"RYOU!!!"


/Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be
That you are mine
Forever love
And you are watching over me from up above/

"You finally… called me… by… my name!" Ryou stuttered softly. "Please… don't speak! I'll get you to a hospital!" Bakura said as he silenced Ryou with one finger to his lips and caressed his blood-soaked hair, "No matter how much you looked like hell… for me, you still look beautiful, Ryou!"

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

/Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile to know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are/

"No! Don't die! Ryou! You can't leave me here!" Bakura cried.

"I'm- sorry… Yami! I- I had always been- a burden to you!" Ryou cried as well.

"Please, Hikari! I know you're just making fun of me! I order you to stop it now!"

"Yami… I love you!" Ryou smiled as Bakura hugged him closer. "Please… don't leave me, Hikari! What am I without you?" Bakura asked while tears streamed down his face.

"Live life over again… in a new perspective!" Ryou answered.

/Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen/

"What good is a second life without you in it?" Bakura asked. Ryou smiled at those wonderful words. "You will still have me! I will be… in your memories!" Ryou said, closing his eyes. "I don't want memories! I want you!" Bakura sobbed.

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

/As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday
'Cause you are mine
Forever love
Watching me from up above/

"Please don't close your eyes!" Bakura was starting to panic. "I'm tired, Bakura… please… let me… rest!" Ryou begged. "Please say it's not for good…" Bakura whispered into Ryou's ears and cupped his Hikari's face by his palms. But Ryou never answered back. "Ryou?"

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

/And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave/

"Ryou… I will bring you back!" Bakura promised as he closed his eyes and leaned his forehead on Ryou's. "Please, Ra! Please… bring Ryou back!"

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

/Fly me up
To where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile
To know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
/

"Why did you have to do it?" He screamed as loud as he could at the top of his lungs, the rain slowly running down his face and into his body together with his tears.

"I can't live without you!"

He dropped to his knees heavily as he touched the grave of the person he loved most… Yami Bakura. "YAMI!!!" He lost everything now… there was nothing more left to face the world.

He remembered the smile Bakura had on his face when he transported his soul to Ryou's body. A smile of overwhelm. "Why did you have to sacrifice your life for me?" Ryou cried.

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

/I know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are/

"Wait for me, Yami…" Ryou whispered as kissed the grave and took a knife of his own straight into his heart. Right before he fell to the ground, the last words he had to say was, "I love you, Yami…"
