(Hikari's pov)
I slammed her door closed and sank against the dark cherry mind was reeling,all coming back to one thing. Yami and his damned mouth! What was he thinking pulling a stunt like that? But it also scared me...I didn't mind it... in fact, I wanted more. shocked at my own thoughts,I dug my nails into my arm. Was it possible I... liked him?I admired him,that's for sure, but beyond that? I needed to get out of here.I needed to clear my head and I had to do that somewhere away from him. I pulled on some heels and a coat and grabbed my camera. This was going to be a looonnngg night.
(normal pov)
Yami punched the wall next to him, and ground his teeth together. He was finally getting close to her and he had to do that? She probably thought he was a horn dog! Just like every other guy out there. Just like Tea. How was he supposed to gain her trust now? He shuffled inside the apartment and bee-lined to her room. I'm sorry, Hikari. he thought. In the short time the ex-pharaoh had know the brunette,he had grown to like,no,love her. She was smart, funny and a bad ass, plus she had beauty that could rival Cleopatra herself. A truly remarkable woman. He knew it would've taken a lot more time to gain her trust and he just had to he screw it up when he was getting somewhere and had to start all over was upset by this,but he didn't mind. As long as he still had a chance,he was fine. Slowly he turned around and walked towards the small living room. Yami sat on the couch and thought back to his conversation with Ahku. Even after 5000 years she was the same. And Hikari was just like her. With a smirk on his lips, Yami fell asleep,his head drooping onto his shoulder.
Hikari exited her room and tip toed past the kitchen, where the others were lightly drinking and discussing the latest designs of cards. Joey and Tristan were already tipsy,as they were light drinkers,and were clutching at each other singing the Danny Phantom theme song at the top of their lungs. After she was the clear,she walked a little more sloppier and rushed to the door, eager for the freedom that the night offered. On the couch to the right was a sleeping Yami,who,from some reason,was smirking. Hikari almost giggled as he began snorting,but thought better of it. She opened the door,and flinched when it let out a long creak,but Yami didn't ,with a click of her heels and another creak of the door,she left.
-mini time skip brought to you by Yu-gi-ohs!apparently,they are Yugilicious. and by the Creepypasta gang, who wish you a happy Halloween.-
Yami was shaken awake by a (very tipsy) Joey. "Yo,Yami, you're girlfriendss gonne." he slurred. "We look all over house, and she ain't" he gave a small hiccup "here." The blond then proceeded to fall over and laugh. He then looked under the couch and under the coffee table saying "Hikarriiiii? Ya there? Oh there's my other sock. I thought th' evil dryer got ya."
While Joey was doing stupidly funny drunk Joey things,Yami sat up and began thinking. She was gone and told no one where she was or why. It was most likely linked to the event that took place earlier that night. He could go after her,but the chances of finding her were slim to none. He had faith she would find her way back, one way or when that time came, he would be here waiting for her so they could talk.
"DO TH' HARLEM SHAKE!" two slurred voices cried before pile driving into him and wriggling around whilst making noises that resembled somewhat of a song. Oh this was going to be a loooonnng night.
(Imate's pov... WEREN'T EXPECTING THAT WERE YA? JOEY GET OUT OF THE DAMN STORY AND GO BE DRUNK SOMEWHERE ELSE!)
Once I told the other's I had never seen Domino square at night, they insisted that I go. And that Bakura should take me. So, there we were, huddled in our jackets because of the cold air. It had just rained so the ground and plants were glistening. But that was only a fraction of the magic I saw before me. Lights of all colors were everywhere, and strings of them criss-crossed between the buildings over our heads. Plants were well kept in small designated rows along the cobbled road,flowers slick with dew glowed from the lights. Soft music was being played by performers trying to raise money. And there was the fountain. streams of water bursting and falling down like fireworks, and there were lights and flowers surrounding (and I believe there were even some inside the fountain) it. The stones around it were smoothed and from above could they were placed and colored to look like a rose. But my favorite part was the all looked so happy and carefree. They were smiling and laughing and dancing in the and friends and strangers and families. It felt like a home.
I had begged Bakura to buy me an ice cream cone,and after a few tries, he caved. It was perfect. Frothy and the flavor exploded in my mouth. I froze mid lick when something rough and calloused brushed my fingers and I realized with a start it was his hand. He watched me, judging my reaction before he inhaled sharply and intertwined our fingers. I gave it a slight squeeze and to my surprise and happiness, he squeezed back. We continued to walk and talk about nothing and of everything until I finished my cone and went to throwaway the wrapper, all the while missing the warmth of his hand. When I returned , his face was thoughtful.
"Whatchya thinking about?"I asked before boldly taking his hand again.
"What does your friend look like again?" he inquire,slowly walking forward.
Doubt crept into my mind. Did he like her from what I'd told him and he's just being friendly and holding my hand? Oh fudge, am I friend zoned? Long brown hair, hazel eyes, with a splash of freckles and unfortunately taller than me." My stomach churned. this was it, wasn't it? "Why do you ask?"
I prepare myself for the worst and bite my pain in three... two... one...
"Because I think I just saw her...right there." he said.
My eyes snap in the direction he is pointing and I saw... "Hikari.." I breathed, before I ran towards her,Bakura in tow. "Hikari!" I shouted again!She turned around,looked me dead in the eye, and ran.
What... the... fEFF.
(Hikari's pov Hikari I did change it a bit. But I had reasons.)
I flipped through the shots I had taken in the square. Blurry sky,delete. Close up of a flower,keep. It went on like that till I arrived at a certain one. It was a quick shot of a couple holding hands. The female, a redhead was eating ice cream while her head was turned to the male. His hair was a mass of white tangles and he was smiling back at her. I don't know why I took this picture, it was a heat of the moment kind of what confuses me was what I thought when I did. ' I am so going to tease her about this!' I did not know this woman. Or, did I? They both looked familiar,but I can'tpace where I knew them from.
"Hikari!" a voice called,I turned around, praying it wasn't Tea. But it was the couple... suddenly overcome with something I did not recognize, I ran. Twisted in and out of alley ways as fast as I could in heels, which was,mind you, pretty fast. and then,I found myself at a dead end.
Well this just fan-tucking-fastic.
I heard them behind me, panting. I had no escape, I was trapped.
" Oh my chickens, Hikari! You are hard to catch. Even with heels. Ah, remember that one time those boys were teasing you about wearing heels and you kicked the siccer ball farther than they could? And you... You don't remember me, do you?" The girl said. I shook my head and began analyzing the situation While she pouted and whispered to the male.
I could easily get past the girl. In my mind I could see how she moved in battle, her style. She had talent, but if I made a cut to the right and acted like I was going to strike her...how do I know all this? I made a mental note to think about it later, time was, after all, running fast. The male I had an inkling of him. I could tell by the way he held himself and the way his eyes kept flicking back to me that he was skilled in the battle field. He was my only concern, the one I had no idea about.
When the man focused back on the girl, I brought out my bow, knocked an arrow, and fired directly at his abdomen. I watched in satisfaction as it made it's target and... Bounced off?
The albino male let out a dark laugh and turned to me, smug expression in place. "Sorry to dissapoint you, but I've got amazing life insurance." He chuckled, unzipping his blue hoodie to reveal a gold ring with the eye of Horus in the center. And all at once, my vision turned black.
Here we go again...
(for the sake of not explaining an entire season, I'm going to switch to Imate's pov instead of describing Bakura's past)
Hikari slumped into a comotose state, her eyes had rolled back into her head and gave off a wierd glow. "What...the...dickens?!" I screeched, biting my lip.
"I have no idea what's going on, but I think this might give us A clue." Bakura said, lifting her arm to reveal an arm band. The one she had tried on...
"Can you read what it says? I havn't the slightest idea of how to read anciet Egyptian Hyroglyphics." I grumble, leaning against the wall. Bakura gives a grunt and studies the armband. When Hikari returns to normal, I'm going to kill her. Thanks to her my date with Bakura has been ruined.
"Alright, I can't say what it says unless I want to get my freedom taken away or worse, serve that bloody pharaoh. It's two oaths for all eternity. One binding her to the light, which is extremely bad an-"
"Of course you think the light is bad, you're a villain!" I cried, interuppting him.
"even by non-villain standards it's bad. And the second one negates the first bu binding her to the Pharaoh." He finishes. I'm glad for her. She always had a thing for the man. Especially in season zero where he was a badass phycaotic killer. Yeah, insanity is a good quality for a guy. The kind you want to bring home to your folks. 'He tried to kill us during the second course, he's a keeper'. Oh yeah.
Hikari suddenly gave a shout and shivered into consciousnes, while standing up. "That, sir, is one bloody past." She said, looking at Bakura. Oh, sha had that right. I took a closer look at her, and noticed something... Off. Hikari always seems like her guard is down ( but it isn't, trust me, I know all too well) but now she looks poised to fly. Eyes flickering around, analyzing everything.
"Well, it's been fun but now I've got to go. Life is way to short to take it slow. But before I go and hit the road..." She muttered, lifting her finger. My muscles froz and I stared at her in shock. "Oh don't look at me that way. I may not be bound to the light but that doesn't mean I don't have my powers. We should do this again. Ta!" And she walked past us. Like she owned the world. But when she turned the corner, I could have sworn another person stood there. A woman in white and red. But in the next moment, it was just Hikari again. Must have been a trick of the maybe I've finally lost it. I blame having to do all the housework. The stench of their rooms alone could drive any person to madness.
"Oh this is getting interesting.." Bakura muttered as the 'spell' wore off.
" What makes you say that?" I ask, rubbing my temples.
He gave a throaty chuckle and began walking away. "Let's just say, an old friend came to play."
He may not make any sense, but he was hot and could rhyme.
That was good enough for me.
...
Okay, not really, but you get the point.
(Hikari's pov)
I slowly opened the door and tip toed in. The house was quiet and dark, perfect for sneaking in undetected.
"Hi-Hikari? Is that you?" Yami's voice asked from the couch next to me.
So much for undetected.
" Hey Yami, how's it-"
"Do you have any idea how worried I- we were? Where were you?" He cried, grabbing my shoulders.
"Relax, I was taking a walk and some pictures. I'm fine, so you can stop worrying now." I reply, slipping off my shoes.
"Taking...pictures..? That's all it was?" he asked, relieved.I grunted a yes back. "Well, your back. It's early, let's go to bed." And we did. But the image of that girl and that man'a past kept me awake till the sky turned gray.
