Chapter 4:

Yamino sat on her bed crossed legged in a skirt which was a bad idea, but it was her own private room so she could do whatever she wanted. But she sat like that late into the night and pondered what her next move would be. She had had people trying to kill her before, but then she only had to protect her few friends while indirectly protecting the whole world. Now it was like she had to protect all of Egypt while indirectly saving the whole world. That just put a whole lot more pressure on her.

She threw herself into her pillows. "Confusion," she sang into the pillows. "I think I'm going insane," she muttered to herself. Yamino shook her head rolled over and looked up at the cieling. "Let's see," she thought out loud. "Bakura wants to kill me so Bakura= bad guy. Then there's me and the priests= the protagonists. Then in these action stories like Indiana Jones there's always a lover. So lover=...(she shook her head quickly so as to dislodge the crazy thoughts from her mind) Nope! Not gonna go there!"

Yamino jumped up on to her knees. "Ok battle plan!..." *crickets* "I won't ever have one will I?" Then a voice in the back of her mind chided her, "You never have a plan at least not one that ends up working out the way you want it to so why bother?" Yamino cocked her head in thought. "Yeah that's true. So to save the world I will do the very noble act known as...being lazy!" The voice would've facepalmed if it could have. "Wow, I really feel bad for the world having to have a savior like you!" She wanted to smack the voice, but what it said was probably true.

Yamino laid back on her pillows and fell asleep.

Soon enough pretty much about an hour later she was awoken by warning bells. Yamino growled to herself as she pulled herself out of bed. She went out to her balcony and saw Bakura's men trying to torch the palace. "Well that sucks," she sighed. She climbed on to the railing of the balcony judged her jump and let herself fall. She fell on the back of some guys horse. He looked at her like she was crazy...well, like he had just noticed it. Yamino smiled sweetly. "Sorry, kid, I'm afraid I have to take your horse." She pushed the man off the horse and looked around. "Takes a theif to catch a thief."

Yamino spotted Bakura easily on the outskirts of the destruction. It wasn't that hard to see him with his proud posture. He noticed her as well and began to ride off, slowly. Yamino smiled in exhasperation and shook her head. "He wants me to follow him." She shrugged. "Might as well, not like I have much else to do. I suck at running countries anyway."

So she ran after him on my pretty much stolen horse. Yamino eventually caught up to him and was riding beside him. He kicked out at her with his leg. She grinned, "Oh isn't this nice? A moonlight ride?" She chuckled as she ducked under his foot. He growled, "Your night will be bloodstained." She pretended to be worried, "Oh know, what'll I do? I know! I'll use this!" She unsheathed her sword. He rolled his eyes and unsheathed his. Yamino frowned. "What then? What do you want?"

Bakura looked forward. "I want to kill you where I died years ago." Yamino raised an eyebrow and poked him. "Nope, you're definitely alive!" He growled in annoyance. "Metaphorically, you dumbass!" Yamino nodded, "I knew that!" Bakura was making it obvious he currently wanted to straggle her.

Yamino sighed at a job well done. It always gave her a satisfying feeling when she annoyed someone to their limits. She looked ahead to the small dot that was growing on the horizon. That must be where he died, she thought to herself. I wonder how painful it was.
