Okay so to clear up any confusion, before this story, Bakura killed Yami after winning the ultimate shadow game. Zorc is not in existence because frankly, I have no patience for him. But otherwise, enjoy, I guess. It may not make any sense, but I just felt like writing.

Enjoy and review, thanks.

Disclaimer: I own nothing. I'm not rich and fucking Japanese, now am I? Nah, nah I'm not.

Monster

Am I truly a monster? Was I not justified when I ripped that damn pharaoh's heart straight from his chest? He deserved it, you know.

Because of him, well his father, my entire village was slaughtered.

My family...my friends... they didn't deserve that... and you come here and think that my actions aren't justified, Ryou?

I lost everything because of him! I watched as my life was ripped into shreds!

It had been a normal enough day, that was for sure. Nothing seemed to be amiss, after all it was my little sister's birthday- let me finish, yadonushi.

I...I had made her a present out of the finest wood that I could steal, a little wooden horse. She was so happy when I gave it to her. So happy that a beautiful twinkle, almost as beautiful as the stars in the heavens, appeared in her eyes. That twinkle and how it faded is engraved into my memory.

That twinkle turned to a look of panic when we heard the screams of our people from outside of our little shack.

My mother, who had been sitting on her old chair, shot out of it and pushed my sister and I toward a hole under one of our beds. We had used it to hide before.

My had father urged us on then grabbed his sword and left to fight.

When my father had been out of sight, I snuck past my mother and went out. I had wanted... I had wanted to fight for my family. When I got out there, it was truly a sight of carnage and madness. How could anyone be that cruel...?

I watched as my own father was thrown into that dreaded pot... I was only five-years-old, Ryou, keep that in mind.

After seeing that horrendous sight, I ran. I couldn't stand it any longer.

I hid and when I felt like it was safe, I peeked out and saw what my family had become... those damned millennium items...

So do you still think I'm a monster, Ryou? Am I still the villain?

...

I think not.
