Bakura's POV

That BASTARD! How dare he come here to taunt me! Wasn't it enough that I knew he was fucking Ryou, but he had to rub it in my face?! Well by doing so, he was just ensuring an even more painful death than I had originally planned for him and his lover.

I would get revenge upon my traitorous Hikari and make him regret this fling with the royal pain in the ass. I know not why the ass had come to rub that in my face but it would not matter soon. I knew whom I had to see and the only thing stopping me was finding a way to see him.

Of course, I didn't dabble in the dark arts without a method of communication to other dark beings. To summon a demon I needed blood. To have a wish granted from a demon I needed souls. The more souls offered the better, for leverage would be key to getting what I wanted. I could not summon just some sort of common demon I needed to see a royal demon to ensure that they would have enough power to grant my desires.

I walked to the kitchen and looked at the cabinets. Opening one of them a got a small drinking glass and smashed it hard against the counter. I picked took the now jagged glass base and ran the sharp edges over my left palm. Blood immediately pooled; and with my right hand, I began to draw a summoning circle on the once clean tiled floor. Not knowing the true name of the one I wished to call I just concentrated hard on his image and energy signature. Keeping those things in my mind, I muttered an old spell and concentrated my energy on the circle.

A dark light burst through the circle I had just drawn and a shrouded figure towered a good foot over me. He was wrapped in a dark cloak that billowed exposing no skin. I was unable to see his face or discern any features that would give away the race of this being but it mattered not. I knew by his presence alone that I had succeeded in summoning the being I wanted. This being would grant me the body I wanted and all I needed in to give in return would be a couple souls.

If the being had eyes, I could feel them on me. It seemed as though he was testing my worthiness and soon concluded that my proposition would be worth listening to, after all I had succeeded in summoning a being of his power to me. His hallowed voice spoke crisply to me, not daring to waste time or words for he was a busy being and waste was not something he practiced. "What do you desire?"

Well that was an easy question, "My own physical body, and freedom from this cursed place. I also wish to bestow the gift of a physical body upon a friend."

There was silence as he processed my request. "And as payment?"
"I have two souls to offer as payment. The soul of a light being, pure of corruption, and one of darkness, completely tainted with the amount of his own power."

It seemed my payment was acceptable for he wasted no time answering me. "Agreed."

A wave of darkness overcame my being and I couldn't help but scream out as I felt the dark beings energy consume me. Breathing became difficult and my vision became blurred, I knew I was on the brink of unconsciousness. While I was fighting to stay alert and awake, I could hear his voice speaking to me mentally. "A portal will open and once you step through it will close, unable to reopen. Once you have passed through the portal you will have one week and I will come to collect your payment. No exceptions."

I nodded to myself, for I knew he could not see me through the blackness that covered me, but I think he took my silence as an agreement to his words and I felt his presence leave with the blanket of energy that once covered me. I fell to the floor; I remembered it being cold before I had blacked out.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I don't know how much time had passed since I had been out but it mattered not, my time wouldn't start until I exited the portal he provided for me. I lifted myself off the blood and glass covered floor and carefully brushed the shards off my arms and chest. I quickly scanned my surroundings, trying to find the location of the portal.

I didn't see it in my immediate vicinity and proceeded back through the kitchen arch to the living room, where I had spent most of my time here. A smirk made its way to my mouth as I remembered the spot the pharaoh had landed on after I had hit him, then I grimaced shortly after also remembering the reason I had hit him.

Not noticing the portal here either I walked outside, closing the front door behind me. Out in the front yard I saw the swirling vortex calling out to me. It was a dark black blemish on this pristine purple world. Before fully stepping through I suddenly wondered if this portal would lead me anywhere near Domino and silently cursed to myself as I had forgot to be specific, but it was too late for that because I had all ready stepped through.

I had braced my eyes, for I did not know what time of day it would be on the other side and to my relief, as I opened my eyes from a squint, that it was nighttime. I looked around and noticed that no one was in close proximity of me and for that, I was thankful as well. People tended to bother me with their nosey ways. Can't mind their own damned business.

I suddenly had the urge to check myself over. I did after all just acquire my own physical body. I made sure I had all the necessities first; two arms, two legs, two feet, ten fingers and I assumed ten toes since I could not see through my black tennis shoes. Everything seemed to be where it was supposed to, quickly glancing down my black slacks I released a breathe; good that was where it was supposed to be too. I had to make sure, I did not want to be the center of a joke I would find out about in an embarrassing way later. I walked briskly to a store window to glance at my face.

Although I was similar to Ryou in appearance the dark being had altered it, giving me a look all my own, and fitting of what I was. Sharp red eyes, straight perfect nose, medium pointed ears, and of course, the signature white spikes, overall I was gorgeous. I have to say that this body was definitely worth the two souls that would be paying for it. I undid the top buttons of the red shirt I was wearing to give myself more breathing room, while it complimented my eyes, it would be useless to me if I turned blue in the process of wearing it.

My brain then reminded me of the mission at hand and somehow I forced the narcissistic part of me down for now. As much as I would have loved to keep on admiring myself, I had a deadline and some revenge to be carried out.

I looked around my area of occupation to see if anything here looked familiar. My spirits dropped when I noticed nothing that stuck up any sort of recognition. I wouldn't let this deter me though. I would just keep walking around until something did jump out at me; I just hope it won't take long.

While walking my thoughts soon drift back to a certain whitenette. I could feel our link strongly, even behind the thick wall I had constructed. I did not want him knowing where I was, for that could ruin the surprise of me showing up, and with my own body no less. I could just imagine his face, couldn't I? Now I was unsure. No, I was sure! He would be terrified that I have come back and be speechless that I no longer need him or his body. Yes, I couldn't wait. I would enjoy that look, and the look he would bear as I tell him of his fate, or rather his soul's fate.I couldn't help the smile that appeared on my face then, for at this moment with all the thoughts running through my head currently I was truly happy.

I knew the only thing that could possibly make it better would be to recognize something in the blasted town that would indicate where I was, and like magic, something did. Apparently, karma was being kind to me, finally. It was then I spotted none other than the Kami Game Shop. I was really tempted to pop in on my favorite person, but decided against it for I would rather see my precious light first. I knew, after all, that he also wanted to see me; or at least he thought he did.

I walked faster in anticipation toward my light's home. Before I knew it, I was standing in front of the front lawn. Dew was forming on the grass telling me dawn would approach soon. I walked up the worn grass path toward the small white porch. I stared at the door briefly before taking a deep breath and entering the small home. I noted that the door was unlocked and wondered what would possess anyone to leave their door easily accessible to the creatures of darkness, but no matter, it saved me the trouble of picking the lock.

I opened the door with great force and it ended up slamming against the hallway wall, announcing my arrival. The lights in the house were on, telling me that the person occupying the dwelling was awake. Oh well, I would not have the pleasure of waking him. I took a step forward and stood, allowing my eyes to adjust to the new brightness.

I heard the breaking of a dish and the hurried footsteps of a small being. Before I knew it, thin arms grabbed me around the waist and clung there tightly. I heard my name and knew instantly who it was. I was shocked as I heard dry sobs coming from the teen, and for an instant, I wrapped my arms around him in silent reassurance.

It was only for an instant though. Alarms went of dangerously loud in my head. I would not be fooled by this act. This false desperation would not fool me, and as quickly as I wrapped my arms around the little actor did I retract them. Anger seeped deep inside me and reacted violently, the whore had almost fooled me.

I placed both of my hands on his shoulders and roughly shoved him. His grasp around my midsection released and he stared at me shocked, as he stumbled back a couple steps to regain his balance. "Do not touch me. I do not want the Pharaoh's stench on me, especially from his whore." He blanched at my words and warmth filled me. Stay focused, I told myself, I would be able to enjoy his misery later. My attention soon diverted to blond Egyptian that had just entered the room. So Marik had been here. I had wondered why but the answer came easily. Marik was preparing for my return; he was guarding the home from the pharaoh like a true friend. Too bad, he was too late to save my Hikari from his own whorish ways. Not everything works out as you want it to.

I walked over to my friend, once partner, and I could see him eye me suspiciously. I knew he must have been wondering about the body I now possessed, and what was that I saw in his eyes, jealousy? No worries my friend for I will bestow this ability upon you as payment for your loyalty.

As per my agreement with the dark being, I had the ability to grant Marik a separate body from his Hikari. "I thank you for guarding my home in my absence. I assume you were watching my light as well; too bad you could not save him from his sluttish ways. No matter, I wish to thank you for the loyalty and friendship you have shown me." I came close to him and grasped his forehead pushing the power I was given to grant him his own body inside of him.

He screamed out much like I had when the process had begun for me. I was having a hard time looking away as the separation was beginning, but quickly remembered that my Hikari still needed dealing with. Looking back to him, I noticed he was still in the same place I had left him.

He was completely still and his eyes were a slightly blank. As I walked back to him, I noticed a tear sliding down his pale cheek. It would not deter or change what I had already decided to do though. He would be punished for his actions. He would learn that there were only so many times a person could forgive you. I could feel my anger burning deep inside me and spreading like a cancer throughout my body.

I roughly grabbed his arm and dragged him past the seizing Marik. At the contact of me touching his arm, I noticed him snap back to reality. I could sense the fear he radiated and it urged me on. I dragged him up the stairs and to the bathroom. I jerked his body in front of me and his eyes stared into mine wide. "You will stay in here until it is time for your punishment. There are no windows in there and the door will be sealed, you will be unable to escape unless I will it." I roughly shoved him in there causing him to stumble to the floor, his arm creating a loud banging sound as it slammed into the toilet. I slammed the door and quickly sealed it. That would teach that whore his place.
