~~~Chap 2~~~

Alister sighed as he landed his purplish-red feathers ruffled a little. He saw something glinting in the sunlight. He flew over to it and pulled it out. It was a black lamp. Alister blinked.

"A lamp? What's a lamp doing out here?" he wondered aloud. The lamp shook causing the bird to jump.

"Who's there? Alister? Is that you?" came a familiar voice. Alister's grey eyes narrowed.

"Marik? W-Wh-What are you doing in a lamp?" he asked smirking as he held in his laughter.

"That's not important you fool! Release me!" Marik ordered. Alister snorted.

"No way! I'm done takin orders from you!" he said.

"Let me out, Alister! Don't you want to be human again?"

"You know something? Your nothing with out me! You were nothing before I came along Marik! I made the plans and I did all the work! And what did I get? I got turned into a damn bird! And you know what?" Alister asked.

"I've Had it! I hate to be dramatic! But it's time for me to fly the coop! Terrific! Fine! I'm drawing the line! Before I end up in parrot soup!" he sang as he picked up the lamp and took off towards a well."I was a fool, to ever let you run the show! I'm cuttin' ya loose, pal! Look out below!" Alister let the lamp go sending it plumeting into the well mariks yelling echoing as it fell. Alister smirked."Arrividerci! C'est la vie! Hope all goes well! I'm looking out for you!" He flew off towards Cairo. He entered the town and landed.

"I'll be running this town in a week!" he said he looked at the camel and sneered."What's your problem liver lips! Don't think I can do it? Okay, I'm little. Been playing second fiddle., and I don't get no respect! I turn the other cheek, this busted beak is all I get!" He sang flying over to a stand and taking a few grapes the man saw him and swatted at him. He took off.

"I never found a friend that I could trust, they promised caviar and left me eating dust! That's some reward for loyalty! From here on in! I'm looking out for me!" he sang. "Oh I don't need nobody else, I'll never fail! I'll cover my own tail! I can take care of myself!" He sang landed.

"You know it just don't paty to give a hoot. I'm givin' allmy heart, and what do I get? The boot! I'm through with That! I'm flapping free! From here on in, I'm looking out for me!" he sang. He heard the neighing of horses and flew up and saw to familiar thieves. They where throwing gold into the streets. He blinked."Bakura and Joey? What are they doing/" he wondered as the two thieves handed a bag to the orphanage people. As the two thieves asteered their horses away Joey sighed.

"Are we giving away everything?" he asked.

"Not everything." Bakura said pulling out the jeweled flower." This is for Ry. the rest is ours." he added. Alister Blinked as he watched Bakura and joey head towards the palace. The white haired thief stood up on the back of his stallion and jumped on to the carpet.

Alister frowned, 'The palace? Ryou? The prince? Why in seven hells would they go there?' Alister thought. He turned and flew off.

Bakura got off as carpet landed on the balcony. He saw thief who growled at him.

"Whoa. Bown boy. It's just me." he told the large wolf. Thief growled again and lunged tackling Bakura and pinning him. He growled again then licked Bakura's face. Bakura chuckled. and pushed the grey wolf off."Ok Thief! Ok! I'm glade to see you too." he said. He stood and dusted himself off. He looked at joey.

"How do I look?" he asked.

"I think you look fine." Bakura turned.

'Ryou!" Bakura said. Ryou smiled.

"Where were you? I missed you." the prince said. Bakura pulled out the jeweled Flower.

"I had to pick up a few things." he said holding out the flower. Ryou took it.

"Oh, 'Kura! It's lovely!" he said Bakura smiled. Ryou kissed him. Then pulled away."It must have cost a fortune." he said walking in side.

"Oh on. It was a steal." Bakura said following his lover inside.

"Father wants you to join us for dinner tonight. He's making a royal announcement." Ryou said.

'And he wants me there?" Bakura asked as he walked up behind the prince wrapping his arms around his waist. Ryou smiled leaning back against the thief's chest.

"It's about you."

"Am I in trouble/"

"Let's just say it's a dinner you don't want to miss." Ryou said

"Ry, what's going on?" Bakura asked. Ryou turned in his lover's arms and wrapped his arms around the thief's neck.

"I promised Father that I wouldnt spoil his surprize." the prince said. "You made quite impression, you know."

"So, I'm not in trouble?" Bakura asked pulling Ryou closer.

"Ofcourse not! You defeated Marik, saved Cairo, and rescued a prince. Your a hero." Ryou said. Bakura smiled.

"Yeah, I guess I am." he said.
