Hi Wolfairer again well I have not got college until September due to me leaving Sixth Form and going to do my animal care YEAH! So I decided to write as much as I can before September because I don't know how busy I will be. Yeah and also I have two one shots that will be going up in the near future. So warning for this chapter is some swearing and one sided tendershipping. Enjoy.
Chapter 7
Normal POV
The desert heat was getting to three people in a old rundown jeep. One of them was a archaeologist which had long straight blue hair tied up in a ponytail with an old battered hat on top. He was in brown explorer clothes which were covered in dust. He looked like he was in his late 30s and at that moment was looking out the window taking in the scenery. suddenly the man sat up straight and quickly said to the driver.
"Stop the jeep. I said stop!"
As soon as the jeep came to a halt the blue haired man jumped out of the jeep and kept looking at the same spot in the horizon. One of the back doors on the jeep opened and another person climbed out of it. However this man was better explained as a boy because he was around 18. His hair was white and reached the middle of his back. He had a pale complexsion. He was wearing a light blue shirt and also a pair of jeans. He started to walk towards the other male and started talking to him as well.
"Father, why have we stopped? We're no where near the dig site yet and there's nothing here."
"Yes there is can't you see that white thing laid on the sand over there?"
After asking that the older man started to walk off towards the object. His son started to walk after him, However when they got close enough they realised that it wasn't something, but someone. This made the pair of them start running. The youngest easily got to them first as soon as he got there he drop to his knees at the side of the body on the ground. He pulled the form close to him and hugged it. He said quietly to the form in his arms.
"Bakura. Bakura, please wake up. Please."
Finally the other reached his son and looked at his son crying into the form that he spotted. When he finally got his breath back he says to his son.
"Do you know him?"
The younger one was crying over the body. Finally he answers his fathers question.
"Yes."
Bakura POV
I started to come round. I got the sense of deja vu. I slowly started to open my eyes and I had to quickly shut them again the sunlight hitting my eyes. Wait, what? I opened them the best I could and saw that I was in a cream tent and I was laid on a blown up bed. I looked down at my chest and saw that my wounds had been cleaned up as well as banaged. I tried to sit up and when I moved pain shot through my back as well as my front.
I finally sat up when a man walk through the tents opening. he looked at me with warm eyes that reminded me of someone. He started to walk closer to me and I just glared at him I'm not in the mood for some pervert to try and take advantage of me. I heard the man starting to chuckle and I snap.
"Don't fucking laugh at me I've had it up to here with wankers trying to shag me and then kill me so just let me go I've got to go now."
"Come now I not here to harm you. Infact me and the team saved you from dying out there. My son was determined to save you considering you're his friend afterall"
I looked at him obviously in an confused manner. I had no friends except from Marik, and obviously this can't be his father the only other person I could think of that I consider alright was...
"Bakura!"
I turned my head to the opening of the tent to see my look-a-like stood there. I smirked to myself and let out.
"Just can't keep away can you Ryou?"
My Hikari ran to me and hugged me this flamed up the pain again and I couldn't help, but let out a yelp of pain. Ryou quickly pulled away from me and calmly said.
"Sorry. What happened to you, Bakura the last time I saw you was when Yugi and the others told you to leave. Where did you go tell me everything."
I could tell that Ryou was really happy to see me, but I didn't have time to fill him in on everything that happened so I made it as short as I could.
"Well after I got told I wasn't wanted I bumped into Marik and we ended up sharing a flat together because I couldn't afford one by myself. Me and him ended up becoming more than friends. Mariku decided not to stay in the shadow realm and come back and kidnapped me and Marik. He was on about that Marik was his and I couldn't have him then he takes Marik and rapes him. Mariku brings him back to me and I find out. Mariku comes back and then stabs me. He must then realised that I was still alived and then chained me up and then raped me. I black out and then woke up here."
I looked at Ryou to see the pure terror written all over his face. I just sat there looking at him waiting for him to say something. I didn't have to wait much longer. Ryou again pulled me into a hug, but this time I pushed him away from me. I had already wasted to much time here already and I didn't know where Marik was and if he was alright.
"Bakura, I'm so sorry I should of been there for you, but I just left you to it and met up with my Dad."
Ryou started to cry. I wasn't used to comforting someone unless it was Marik. I decided to hug him to make him feel better. I said to him.
"It's ok stop your crying it's pathetic"
I heard my Hikari laughing and then he said to me.
"Y-you w-were ne-never good a-at m-making people feel b-better."
Suddenly there was a cough I turned to see Ryou's father still stood in the tent. Ryou must of seen him too because he got out of my grasp and said quietly to his dad.
"S-sorry Father I forgot you were there."
"That's fine I just thought I should let you know that we will be heading back to the city in a couple of hours."
Before Ryou could answer his father I quickly jumped in.
"Will you be able to take me back where you found me exactly?"
"I should be able to, but why? I mean you were in the middle of the desert"
"I need to go and save Marik from that Bastard, I won't let him suffer."
"Ok, but you should wait until you're feeling 100% better."
"I'm fine now so don't worry about me."
"Ok. Well I'm going back to the dig site. Ryou you coming or what?"
"Um, yes I'll be there in a few minutes Father."
"Right."
After that Ryou's dad walked out of the tent. I turned to see that Ryou was staring at me with his puppy eyes. I quickly lost my temper and I snapped out at him.
"What are you looking at?"
"You. You've changed I mean you usually wouldn't care about anyone, but now you're determined to go and save Marik. What is he to you I mean you said he was more than a friend to you, but what?"
I Realised that Ryou was right that Marik had changed me a lot I used to only give a shit about what happened to me and getting my revenge on the Pharaoh but that changed when I lost my last battle in the Millenium World and got myself a separate body, no one was interested in me and all told me to leave only one person care, one person wanted me to be safe. Marik. I fell for him hard and no one was going to separate us, until that fucker Mariku came along and had to ruin our life together.
I came out of my thoughts to see that Ryou was staring at me again. I sighed and started to answer his question.
"Ryou he is more. I thought that he was just going to be a good fuck, but my ice heart melted and I fell in love with him."
I waited for Ryou to reply, but I didn't get the reply I thought I would get.
"So you love him, but is your love returned to you does he even care about you or were you a thing he could use to get what he wants."
"You're wrong Ryou. Marik gave up more to be with me then I did to be with him. His brother and sister disowned him because of him being gay and not just that I was also the Thief King once and that was also against the tombkeepers rules. He wouldn't of done that if he wasn't serious about me. So what's your problem with him."
"Nothing. I have no problem with him. I just can't believed that you have shown a weakness to someone."
I started to think what he could mean, but then I realised that he was telling the truth I would never show any kind of weakness and now I'm quite happy telling anyone that I'm in love with a certain Egyptian.
I smiled at Ryou and that made him smile back at me sweetly. Ryou looked away from me and he said to me.
"Well I'm happy for you I just wished that it turned out different."
"What do you mean Hikari?"
"It doesn't matter I'm just happy, but do you think Marik is still alive. I mean if you say Mariku is back he'll obviously want to get revenge on Marik for sending him in the shadow realm and everything."
"No Mariku thinks that Marik should be with him because of them being a part of each other, and obviously that is basically crap. I mea-"
"What if it isn't?"
I looked at Ryou in complete shock I mean I didn't think he was going to jump in and say some of the things that he has and now he says that I couldn't believe that Ryou had changed so much.
"Ryou if you are saying Mariku is right then you're as mad as that psycho."
"I'm not saying that everything he has done is right, but he could be telling the truth about them meant to be together because of them being yami and hikari and Yugi and Atem were also in love with each other. Maybe that is how it was meant to be yami's together with their hikari's."
"Ryou that's not how it works the reason Mariku is even here is because he was created out of Marik's anger and hate that means Mariku is a part of Marik. Not a different soul."
"Yeah but Mariku is his own person like you are a yami and you're your own person so it works."
I saw that Ryou was starting to get upset again, I could see the unshed tears in his eyes. I don't understand why he was getting so upset over this. Finally the tears started to flow from his eyes . I pulled Ryou into another hug, but didn't say anything this time I waited for Ryou to calm down , but the tears kept flowing. He started to try and say something.
"D-do I me-mean som-something t-to y-you Ba-Bakura?"
"Of course you do Hikari."
I heard Ryou give out a sigh of relief. He pulled away from me and then he did something I didn't expect. Ryou pushed me back down on the bed and he got on top of me and straddled my hips. I was quick to ask.
"Ryou. What are you doing?"
"Shh, just relax Yami."
With that Ryou connected his lips with mine. My eyes opened as wide as possible. I tried to push Ryou off me, but I was still weak from the blood lost. I tried to turn my head, but he grabbed my hair to stop me from moving. Ryou then let his tongue out of his mouth to try and get into mine. With that I found my strength and hooked my leg around Ryous waist and flipped us over. I was just able to keep myself above Ryou with my arms and knees. Again Ryou shocked me by buckling his hips upwards this caused me to yell out.
"RYOU STOP IT NOW!"
I watched as the young one underneath me stopped moving and just stared at me with them innocent eyes. I slowly moved to sit on the other end of the single bed. I tried to be careful so I didn't reopen any of my wounds. I turned my head slightly so I could just see Ryou out the side of my eye. I watched him sit up and edge closer to me. He quietly said to me.
"Did I even have a chance with you Bakura?"
I turned to look him dead in the eye and saw all his emotions. Worry, concern and I could also see a bit of hope. I looked away from him and answered.
"No. Marik is my life and the reason I keep living."
I watched tears starting to form in his eyes, but this time he wiped them on his arm and gave me a small smile. I felt the bed lift up indicating Ryou got off the bed.
"I better get back to my father, we have a bit to do."
I watched him leave the tent and signed. I tried to get up and stand. It took me a few minutes, but I got there. I walked over to a wooden table that had a jug of water and a glass. There was also a bowl of different kinds of fruit on the table. I poured myself a glass of water and downed it in one. I could feel the water running down the inside of my body and soothing it. I had another three cups until I felt hydrated again. I then picked up an apple from the bowl and bit into it. My stomach was happy to finally has something to digest. When I finished with the apple I threw the rest on the floor I didn't give a fuck if someone would have a go at me I need to get back and find Marik and kill the bastard that had split us up.
After a while Ryou returned to the tent with bandages and clothes in his arms. I was laid on the bed again, but it was easier this time to get into a sitting position.
"I thought you would like some clothes, afterall you don't want to save your... friend in just your boxers do you?"
"Thanks Ryou I appreciate it and everything."
I took the clothes out of his arms and waited for him to leave. However my Hikari just stood there looking at the ground then suddenly said in a quiet voice.
"I also need to change your bandages."
I looked at Ryou and said to him.
"I'll be fine they don't hurt and I don't want my reflexes to be slow when I'm against Mariku."
Ryou looked at me with curious and confused eyes and he just simply smiled at me. He finally started to walk to leave the tent while I was unfolding the clothes. I was shocked to see something I thought I would never see again. The Millenium Ring. I turned around to see that Ryou had stopped at the opening of the cream coloured tent and before I could ask he said.
"You need it more than I do. Just promise me, don't die."
I smirked and replied.
"Promise and thanks."
I watched my lighter side turn and leave me alone again. I started to put the clothing on, after I pulled off all of the bandages wrapped tightly around me. The clothes contained a black t shirt and jeans. I slipped the Millenium Ring over my head and I felt like I would be able to do anything already and it felt like I was nearly complete again I was just missing one thing. Marik.
Several minutes after I was dressed Ryou's father entered and said to me.
"We're leaving now are you sure you want to be dropped off where we found you?"
"Yes I need to do this."
With that I followed the middle aged man to the jeep which was already filled with other people I climbed in the back and sat next to Ryou. I kept getting funny looks off the others. I just glared back at them, finally the rusty jeep started to move and I ended up getting lost in my thoughts of Marik and if he was still alive and waiting for my return. I picked up the Millenium ring in my hand and stared at it. I was hoping that I could fight Mariku and now stand a chance against him.
Suddenly the Millenium Ring started to glow. I said to shout at the front at the front of the jeep.
"STOP! I SAID STOP!"
Finally the jeep came to a quick stop I jumped out with Ryou close behind me and his father getting out of the front of the jeep. The middle aged man called out to me.
"What's going on why did you want us to stop?"
"I no longer need a lift I'm fine here thank for your help."
"What do you mean we're at least 30 minutes away from where we found you, I thought you wanted to be dropped off there?"
"No I don't anymore so you can carry on with your journey back to the city."
"No Bakura don't go."
I turned around to see Ryou with concern written all over his face. He closed the gap between us by wrapping his arms around my waist and crying into my chest.
"Please Ba-Bakura d-don't go s-s-stay w-with me."
"Ryou I can't. I don't love you like I love Marik."
After I said that the tears seemed to fall faster. At last Ryou's father pulled him off me and I could run to the direction the Millenium Ring wanted to take me. I could still hear Ryou's screams of my name, but I wouldn't turn back I had to get my true love. Then we could be together again.
I seemed to have been running for hours when I reached what looked like a ruin of a temple I explored around it until I found a door on the ground. I opened the door and started to walk down the stone steps. I whispered out while I grabbed one of the flaming torch off the wall.
"Don't worry Marik I'm on my way hang in there."
I carried on walking in the dark tunnels I had no idea where Marik could be, and how long this tunnel went on for, but I didn't care how long it would take me I would find Marik sooner or later.
Suddenly I was taken out of my thoughts by an ear shattering scream. Marik's scream. I started to run in the direction of the scream. When the screaming stopped I stopped running I needed to find him and fast. Again the silence was broken by a scream I ran again and I stood outside of a door the screaming seemed to come from. Then I heard the one thing that made my blood boil my lover screaming out.
"MARIKU PLEASE! PLEASE STOP IT! I HATE IT!"
With that I used the power of the Millenium Ring to make the door fly open and I looking in the room with determination. I was getting my lover back.
Well I think this is a good place to finish for now. Next chapter will be what happened with Marik when Bakura was taken away. Please R and R and you will be loved by me.
