Hi all,
Thank you so much for your reviews! Sorry, I haven't updated, but I'm going on vacation tomorrow and wanted to get this up. Sorry for the length. Enjoy.
SMACK.
"Malik! Tell me now or so help me…I will…do…something," I scream at the blonde Egyptian, my heart in my throat.
"…You slapped me?! Seriously, Ryou?!" he says, rubbing the red blotch on his left cheek.
"It's been five minutes! You've just stared at me for FIVE minutes! You can't just say 'Well…that's what I wanted to talk to you about' and then not say anything," I said, my voice getting louder with each sentence.
"I just wanted to check your reaction. To see if you're up for this…" he trails off, looking me up and down. Oh God, he's pitying me. Fine. Pity me. Just tell me what the fuck is that doing here?
I take a breath, eyeing the millennium rod like it's going to bite me. I look into Malik's eyes, pleading. My mouth is open. My eyes are blinking erratically. I'm tearing at my hair and pacing. I'm sure I look like I'm about to lose my mind.
"Ry…we've found a way to get Yami back. Well Yugi found it. But Isis and I have verified it. We think it can work," he says, his eyes practically shimmering. "And if it works for the Pharaoh…it can work for Bakura or Marik. If that's what you want."
"H-how?" I ask. My eye is totally twitching.
"It's complicated. And, not entirely…well you'll see." Malik takes a deep breath. "Although we were physically separated from our Yamis, they can still be a part of us."
"…what," is all I can muster.
"I created my Yami. You two can do the same."
Please read and review.
