Chapter 7

Disclaimer: do not own yugioh

Sorry if this was horrible I had a bit of a hard time with this one!

It had been two days ago that Ryou obtained that monster! After he had woken up from the night he thought it was just a dream, but then he noticed he was holding something! He looked down and noticed the card he was given in his hand and knew that he didn't just dream it. After he had put in his deck, which was very similar to Bakura's except that it had a few different cards and techniques.

Bakura was constantly watching his host that morning. Making sure that Ryou's monster's power didn't overwhelm him. Though to his surprise the monster didn't even try, it was content with its partner! It didn't surprise him that Ryou was brought into their family so easily, but it did surprise him when he was given a shadow monster especially that shadow monster.

Ryou himself was still in shock until he got to school, and he still only snapped out of it when Tea walked in lumps still on her face and screeching. She was ranting about how Ryou did it, Tristan backing her up while Yugi and Joey were arguing with them about it.

/Looks like Pharaoh's on our side light, and you split up that group/ Bakura laughed in pride making Ryou flush for seemingly no reason to others around him.

\Yeah so do you really think they are on your side now even slightly\ he asks noting that Yugi was looking annoyed at something the two annoyances said.

/No he killed my people he isn't about to help me just you because he thinks you are his friend and therefore on his side/ the spirit explains making the host freeze thinking something that might be interesting for his dark side.

\You know he doesn't remember his old life and he seems too nice to do something like that even if he did so maybe he didn't know what went on. Maybe someone did it with his men without his authorization or under false pretenses\ Ryou spoke up.

/And that would mean what exactly light/ Bakura question, he was a thief not a scholar!

\He was tricked into sending out his forces for something else, but instead of doing what they told him they attacked your village instead. Maybe they did it without telling the pharaoh the cost of the Millennium items\ Ryou explained carefully.

/That actually does make sense the one ruling was his father at the time and he believe that everyone was a nice person and would do as they said they would, a person easily tricked and now that I think about it the only advisor there was his scheming brother Aknadin/ the spirit conceded going back into the ring to think about what he just learned.

At lunch Yugi and Joey came to sit with the wearer of the Millennium Ring making it so the spirit and his host couldn't speak with each other much to their annoyance.

"Hey Ryou we wanted to apologize on our, or rather Tea and Tristan's, behavior! We really didn't mean to ignore you. And we really hate how the others talk about Bakura!" Yugi spoke bowing his head in shame.

"Yeah we've, Yugi, Pharaoh and I, thought about it and there most be a reason that Bakura hates Pharaoh so much and since he doesn't remember the past we don't know!" Joey continued knowing that Yugi always hated explaining that part.

/Well well tell them that I will tell them the reason if they come to our house today after school/ Bakura's voice vibrated as he spoke.

"Bakura says that he will explain if you come to our house after school!" Ryou repeated getting a choking noise from Joey while he was swallowing his food and a stare from Yugi.

"So he is back I had the feeling, but didn't want to confront you about it," Yugi spoke but his voice was unusually deep signifying the switch of control.

/He knew! And he didn't confront us! Maybe he is on our side/ Bakura mentally yelled making the one in control jump and giving him a huge headache.

"You knew? Yet you didn't confront us?" Ryou questioned getting chuckles from the ancient king.

"Well the spouts of magic, the separation, the temper, what went on in gym a few weeks ago, and let us not forget the people touched by shadow magic that weren't victims were enough to clue me in," Yami smirked making the wearer of the Millennium ring flush brightly. "And I didn't confront because you weren't doing anything bad. He did all those stuff to people who hurt you right! He wasn't trying to take over the world so I didn't need to step in!"

/Words of true wisdom or true lazy kings I cannot decide/ Bakura smirked.

"Pharaoh" Joey cried in exasperation getting another round of chuckles from the spirit of the Millennium puzzle.

The day went by quickly after that and soon it was time to explain things to the old king of Egypt.

"First things first we will be only telling you a short version because Bakura doesn't trust you yet maybe in the future he says, but he still has his doubts!" Ryou warned knowing that he needed to clear this up before going any further.

"It is a reasonable thought he has hated me for millennia and we will need time to trust each other!" Yami agreed wholeheartedly. Ryou breathed deeply getting ready to explain what happened.

"The Millennium items were created from the souls of ninety-nine villagers burned alive from the thief village of Kul Elna. Only of villager a small child escaped the cruel fate scared from seeing the deaths of his family and friends," Ryou was repeating the thief's exact word. "It was Bakura he was only a child and he watched this act done in the pharaoh father's word or so he thought now we think that the king didn't know and he was tricked into letting the people who killed his village go there!"

Pharaoh's eyes were wide in complete shock and Joey looked like he was about to puke.

"We thank you for telling us thief and thief's light it must have been hard. We are on your side and will think about this a lot!" Yami spoke before leaving bringing Joey with him not out of fear, disgust or anything like that but respect for the ones his father wronged.

Well now Bakura and Ryou have two new allies! Pharaoh knows what the reason for the grudge of the thief is! This was a hard chapter oh well!
