"You really think you'll get away with this?" He glared at the spirit of the Ring, all of his anger showing in his red-purple eyes.
"Oh, but I already have, Pharaoh! Look around!"
-Ryou Bakura is typing- ((Hang on guys, I gotta to do something, I'll be right back.))
She sat back in her chair and sighed. Another RolePlay session going fantastically. Then again, when did they not? This break would give her time to think of something good to reply.
She spent that time going back through a FanFiction website, wishing that people would update them faster... She had read a good one that hadn't been updated...what was it, last week? Yeah, that one about the RPG...she would like to have finished it...they only ever posted the first chapter... she wondered why somebody would post a first chapter and then not finish...
She jumped at the "pop" sound in her headphones. A private message on Skype!
"Yami Bakura"
"is it weird that I'm totally sitting here, wearing the Ring?"
They did this kind of thing all the time. They had both helped in creating the replica Millennium Ring.
"Only if it's weird that I'm sitting here wearing the Puzzle :3" She typed in return. It was true, she was wearing the puzzle. She sometimes wondered if she looked insane with a block of golden painted poster board hanging from her neck, but she didn't care, even if it did look insane. She was going to wear it anyway.
"So, anything cool and magical happen yet?"
Well, no. Not really not unless you counted talking to yourself "magical".
"Nope. How 'bout you, anything weird?"
"Nope."
The Role Play session continued and lasted for a few more hours, before she finally went to bed.
She woke up drenched in sweat, and put her hand to her head. "I thought I was finished with those dreams..." She thought. A reoccurring dream. A Nightmare. It had seemed OK at first. She was at "home"...the place she had moved from a couple of years ago. Since it HAD been a couple of years, she thought she would stop having the nightmares. She had watched her beloved dog get hit by a car again. She had tried to run and save him, in the dream, but of course, it being a nightmare, she couldn't move. She couldn't even move... she was shaking slightly, as the dream had lingered into her waking moments, and the paralyzing fear had felt only too real. She wiped her eyes, drying tears she must have cried while she was asleep.
She felt...pitiful. Still shaking from the sheer real-ness of the nightmare. When there it was again. That presence. It surprised her, and made her sit straight up. She looked around. There was nobody there... she was alone...then what was this? What was it she was feeling...?
It was most certainly, undeniably, there. A presence...a strong one...
And yet it was...comforting...
But it was overwhelming again...like the first time she had felt it, but still...familiar…
It didn't go away this time...no this time it was still there... he was still there…
"Who...who are you?" She whispered, slightly intimidated by the feeling that someone was there, in her room with her. She got the sudden thought that she didn't need to know..."No, I...I want to know..." She again got the feeling that she didn't need to know... was this...communication?
"You're...you're there...right? How do I know that you're really there? Am I imagining this...?" She questioned the air. Well, it was better than doing nothing.
Seemingly in response, the presence grew stronger. The feeling was almost frightening. In fact, it did scare her a little, until the feeling of comfort came over her. Just...comfort...the feeling that...everything was going to be alright...
She realized how tired she suddenly felt. A big change from a minute ago, when she felt wide awake despite how late it was. She yawned and then whispered, "Are you doing this...?" Yes. An answer...but less in the form of words or an actual voice, and more in the form of a strong feeling...it slightly worried her, being suddenly tired...but in a strange way, she was grateful...
Yes...it's going to be alright. Sleep now. I'll watch over you...
She was drifting off as she felt those last feelings, she still had questions, but she was so tired...
She woke up to the *Buzz* *Buzz* of her phone. What happened...? Dreamless sleep...long, peaceful, dreamless sleep...But last night...there was something...did she dream it? No, her sleep was dreamless...after that. After that moment...
She sleepily searched for her phone. "Bakura"
"Hey, you up? I wanted to ask you something." She looked around for the clock. 10:00.
"Sure, sup?" She typed back, hoping she hadn't done something wrong. She looked around her room. It was the same as it always was. Morning sunlight filtered through her binds, and her ceiling fan ran on high, keeping her cool in the summer heat.
*Buzz* *Buzz* "Bakura" She picked her phone up, quickly sliding the android unlocked to read the text.
"Is everything...alright?"
She was kind of nervous...maybe she had done something wrong...what did 'Bkaura' mean by that..? She texted back quickly, hoping she hadn't done anything to offend or worry her friend.
"Yeah...why?"
-sending...10:09AM- the phone said, letting her know that her message sent. She slowly stood up, stretching and yawning. She walked to the middle of the room, standing on the tips of her toes to reach the little string on her fan that turned the light on. *Buzz* *Buzz*
"Bakura"
"No reason...I...I just wondered if everything was...the same..."
What was she talking about? This didn't make sense...
"What do you mean...?" she typed back in hopes that she would begin to understand her friend's texts. She walked over to her dresser and sorted through T-shirts, finally deciding on an anime graphic-T for the day, and slipping it over her head.
*Buzz* *Buzz*
"I just...do you feel any...different?" What? This was just odd...different? Could 'Bkaura' know about last night? No, they hadn't talked since then...what was going on?
She stood in the middle of her room, confirming her answer. No...She didn't feel different...There had been something odd last night, but it was gone now...
"No...Not really...why?" she replied.
The reply came a few minutes later, *Buzz* *Buzz*, "Bakura"
"No reason...forget I asked..."
