Kuraki-chan: I'm back again! :D So as I said, this chapter is short, and kind of sad, but it gives you more insight to Virah and..well..it can only get a little worse from here before it gets better :D I promise!

Elvirah: *growling* I am going to rip out your entrails and do a dance on them!

Kuraki-chan: EEP! I can only write so fast, Virah! SHADOW, HELP!

Shadow: Hah, you're funny for once, you know that?

Kuraki-chan: So I'm probably about to lose my entrails but I'll keep updating, don't worry! :D

What You Want

14; Sometimes Goodbye Is A Second Chance

With Virah's mental defenses down, Marik kept attacking her over and over again. There were a couple of memories from her Guardian training when she was barely fifteen and kept losing her fights, one from when she ran away and was attacked in the middle of the night, and one when she was a little girl and lost in some foreign country because her parents forgot about her. But the one about to play, would ruin Virah to no extent.

As soon as Marik said he was sacrificing his three monsters, Virah knew this was the end for sure. She was down to a mere 300 life points and he was about to summon Ra. Above them played Virah's foster dad abusing her for losing another duel and getting bullied at school. She was only eleven, but he abused her since she was eight until she was about thirteen. He'd use the most pathetic reasons to do so.

"You worthless little brat!" He yelled at her. "You bring disgrace to our family!"

Little Virah shook with fear, backed against the kitchen wall. "I-I'm sorry f-father! I'll get better, I promise!"

"Promises are nothing, you soulless whore."

Virah relived that memory as her father hit her and kicked her over and over again. She cried and screamed just like then when her father took a kitchen knife and began slashing at her arms and back. Blood spilled from the poor girl and Bakura couldn't take it anymore; he rushed up to the deck and held her up, trying to help her hold on just for a little longer.

"Virah, Virah hold on!" Bakura held the frail girl up as Marik summoned Ra. "Virah I'm right here! Don't let me lose you again, dammit!"

She opened her eyes and smiled sadly, letting tears fall. "The flames took my soul before, now it's time they take me."

"A man with no soul doesn't cry, Elvirah." (A/N: True Blood quote from Terry Bellfleur right there!)

She reached up and caught a small tear that was falling from his eyes. "Than it looks like you have a soul as well, my king."

"I'm not letting you go again."

Marik declared his attack and Virah nodded. "Sometimes goodbye is a second chance; yes you are." As Ra's fire came close, Virah pushed Bakura out of the way and was consumed by Ra's golden flames. She then dropped to her knees, and fell forward. Bakura leaned against the rail in pure shock.

Marik laughed and began to leave saying, "I guess she is weaker than I thought."

Everyone rushed up to help her and Ryou picked up the one card left in her pale and bloody hand – the Seal of Orichalcos.

"She could have won if she played that," commented Tristan.

"When did she draw it?" asked Téa.

"On her first turn," Bakura answered grimly, still in shock. "I could tell by the look on her face."

"Than why didn't she play it?" Ryou asked.

Nobody had an answer to that; not even Bakura.

"Sometimes goodbye is a second chance…" Virah's voice rang in Bakura's ears as he stared at her limp, pale, and bloody body.

Shadow: *clears throat* Kuraki-chan will be out of commission for a little while, so it looks like I'm stuck doing this. To start, don't ask any questions on Kuraki's whereabouts – otherwise you will be joining her. Next, it looks like I have to tell you fools the origins of her chapter titles from twelve to what she's got written now which looks like…twenty – her being in the midst of writing twenty.

Jeeze, talk about song-fic much. She already has the last chapter title planned as another damn quote from What You Want by Evanescence. *reads some paper* Are you serious? I have to give them a description of the next few chapters too? SON OF A BITCH!

Ugh…well in fifteen Virah's…fuckin' screwed. Sixteen…to start, fuckin' weirdo for the chapter title. Her iPod is full of fucked up shit. But it looks like…eh, Kaiba gets pissy like usual (what else is new?), Virah runs like she's never run before (welcome to my fucking world), and more shit goes down. Seventeen…OH DAYUM! GET SOME! *laughs hysterically* Eighteen looks kinda stupid but apparently it's import—ohh, I get it now! Ugh, so many stupid bonds in this story. What do we have for nineteen…oh, mommy dearest gets a cameo, Virah gives a creepy warning about something, and…GET SOME PART TWO! *laughs again* Jeeze, talk about a sex drive. Ahaha! I am so giving you guys this quote from chapter nineteen;

Virah's smile returned. "Alright; it's gonna be fun, I promise! So…what do you want to do until the others return? They should still be out for a few hours."

Bakura's signature smirk appeared. "I'm not sure you want to know the answer to that."

"You want to play monopoly?" Virah grinned.

Bakura's lips twitched. "No."

"Trouble?"

"Closer," he chuckled.

"Candy Land?"

"I'm in Candy Land alright," he looked at her with lustful eyes.

"I'm stuck in Molasses Junction," Virah sweatdropped.

"You like it sticky, huh?"

"I think I'm going to blow chunks."

"I think you want to blow something else."

Virah felt the bile rise in her throat. "You are a sick bastard."

Ah perverts; they're so much fun to toy with—HOLY SHIT IMPLIED LEMON! Oops, don't think I was supposed to say that. Myyyy baaaaadd! Hn…what's she got for twenty so far…? Oh Jeeze, I guess Marik's not as stupid as we thought.

Marik:I resent that, dammit!

Shadow: Resent what? I just complimented you ya dumbass!

Bakura: *laughs at Marik's expense* Dumb blonde.

Marik: Take that back you stupid thief!

Bakura: Or what?

Marik: Or…or… *smirks* Tch, you're so old, you knew the Burger King when he was just a prince!

Shadow: *sweatdrops* Uh…aren't you a fucking vegan?

Marik: o.o NOBODY SEES THE WIZARD. *runs away*

Shadow: Alrighty than… v.v'' I'm going on break because I have therapy to attend. Bakura, disclaim.

Bakura: The hell? Why me?

Shadow: *death glare* Because I fucking said so.

Bakura: *eye twitch* Kuraki-chan doesn't own anything Yu-Gi-Oh much as she wish she wants to *snickers*. Just her own fucked up characters like Shadow who's now off to therapy. I still have no idea where Elvirah or Kuraki are at this moment, nor will I probably ever know because those three wretches never like to tell me anything.

Kyrie: Do you ever wonder why?

Bakura: What the fuck? Get outta here! ._. That's it, I'm going to therapy with Shadow. Kura, out.
