Ryou slowly woke up. He was in his room at his grandmother's house, but he couldn't remember how he got there. His head hurt like hell and the only thing he was able to remember about yesterday night was Malik, who wanted to spy on the new neighbors.

"I'm going to take a shower, see what's there for breakfast and then I'll find Malik and ask him about yesterday" Ryou said to himself and hurried downstairs. He was sure something strange had happen cause he'd never slept in his clothes before. He always changed before bed.

15 minutes later Ryou went in the living room and was immediately attacked by his grandmother.

"Ryou! You're awake! I'm so glad you're all right dear. Does your head hurt? Are you hungry? What happened yesterday?"

"W-what about yesterday?" Ryou asked surprised. He really didn't know what to say.

"Well, yesterday one of the new neighbors brought you home. He told me you were playing outside and you fell from a tree and hit your head, but he said you are going to be ok. I showed him the way to your room. What a kind man…he looked quite like you though, pale skin, white hair…so Ryou dear what do you want for…" she wasn't finished asking and Ryou was already gong towards the door.
"I'm not hungry! Bye grandma! I'll be home for lunch." He shouted from the doorway and left the house.

"The kids these days are very strange…"

Ryou was standing outside Malik's house, ringing the bell eagerly. He knew Malik was probably still sleeping, but he wanted to know what had happened yesterday. Finally one of the second floor windows opened up and one really sleepy Malik glared at Ryou.
"I hope you have an explanation about why you woke me up… the door is open come in … " and he closed the window without saying anything.

Malik's parents were at work and he was alone at the house so Ryou was glad he didn't wake them up. When he the reached the room, the egyptian boy was already dressed and completely awake.

"Malik, are you going to tell me what happened yesterday?" Ryou said calmly.

"You don't remember? You've hit your head really hard then." Malik said with a laugh. "But you're ok so…"
"What do you mean I'm ok?? What happened??"

"I wanted to learn more about the new neighbors so we went to spy on the house and you fell from the boxes and lost consciousness. I ran for help but when I was down the street I saw someone bringing you towards your house so I thought you were all right and left. And you are all right. The only stupid thing is that you saw something from the window and you didn't tell me what it was so the whole job was worthless…" said Malik pissed and glared at Ryou.

"What?" the younger boy said with amusement. "But…but I don't remember anything…I only remember going with you and after that…. nothing" he said a little bit scared. "Something like this has never happened to me before."

"Maybe it's because you hit your head" Malik said, looking slightly worried himself.

"Yeah maybe…I have to go back now, it's almost 12 o'clock and I promised grandma I'll be there for lunch. Thanks for the talk and sorry for waking you up." And before Malik could say a thing the boy was already out of the house.

Ryou walked in and took off his shoes announcing his presence to his grandmother, washed his hands and went to his room to change his clothes. He was almost going to have a heart attack when he went in to the dining room. Sitting on the table were his grandmother and one boy not much older than him. He had dusty white hair, pale skin and dark brown eyes.
"Oh, Ryou dear, you're home." Said his grandmother and went to hug him. "This is the man who brought you here yesterday."

"Nice to meet you Ryou. My name's Bakura." The deep still soft voice of the man before him rang through Ryou's ears sending shivers down his spine. "I'm here to ask for your help but lets have lunch first. Your grandmother is such a nice woman, she offered me to stay and I just wasn't able to deny her."

Ryou just stood there not able to say anything. Trying to stay calm. But he had so many questions. Maybe he'll be able to ask after the lunch.
