Bakura paced back and forth like an angry lion. His eyes glaring at the floor as he tried to think of how to follow up on Seto's surprise appearance. Apart of him realized he hadn't thought he would come, but he did. This had been a pretty pull out of the sky idea. After a sharp turn he caught Malik's purple eyes burning into him. "What.." Bakura growled.
"We should just kill them now." he shrugged. "Revenge is close, we shouldn't waste time on this."
Bakura nodded. "I know."
"Then why not now? Why not finish this, and you can finally be free?" for once Malik had everything thought through. His voice was now lulled together as if he was trying to coax Bakura into this.
"Because if I kill him, I will no longer be apart of this world either."
Malik smirked. "You do not know this for sure. Maybe you're separated for good. You are a powerful alternate soul, maybe this is something we're contemplating to buy time."
Shrugging, he walked towards the door to where his captives lay, but did not open it. He could sense his annoying slave on the other side, anxious and terrified. However, he wasn't jumpy as he was before Seto arrived. Damn that blue eyed CEO. "How can we know for sure?"
"Stab the boy, if you feel it, then you are connected."
"Why are you suddenly into this? I thought you wanted nothing to do with them being killed?" he turned back to the other. "Scared?"
Malik chuckled lightly. "I'm impatient and I don't want to be here anymore. You are being the coward by not fulfilling your revenge."
"Fine." Bakura replied, unsheathing his dagger and kicking open the door. The smell of dust filled his nose and he saw Seto and Ryou looking out the window. "Come here you stupid boy." he growled fiercely, his eyes darkening with sinister thoughts.
Seto jumped in front of Ryou with a letter opener in hand. He had found it on the floor underneath a pile of dirty books. The windows grew darker as the rain began to pour. Lightning couldn't be seen since it was still light outside, but thunder boomed as if it could sense the suspense. Ryou poked his head over the other man's shoulder. "Don't!" he yelled, probably to Seto.
"You won't touch him." Seto's eyes narrowed in a challenging gaze. His fist was white upon the golden piece of metal. What the hell was taking Yami so long in getting in here?
Ryou pulled himself away from the protector and Bakura walked over. Seto thrust the metal towards the evil man in front of him, but Bakura caught his wrist, twisted, and threw him into a wall. The sudden strength had caught both the victims by surprise. Malik watched with that silly grin still plastered on his face. His lilac eyes wide with anticipation. "No, leave me alone!" Ryou screamed, grabbed a book from one of the broken shelves, and chucked it in the general direction of the attacker.
The book halted in midair before falling to the ground. It smacked the wooden floors with a heavy thud. Another book was thrown, and the same outcome occurred. "Don't be so naive, Ryou. This will only hurt for a moment." Then with a grasp in the shoulder, Ryou cried out before he was dragged to the ground by a hard force.
"No! Don't kill me! Just leave me alone!" he screamed, kicking air.
Bakura put the boy in a straddle. "Shut up and hold still you annoying brat." The dagger was raised, and it gleamed in the rain streaked window pane.
Seto lunged for the dagger but Malik caught him and they both collided with the floor. A punch was raised towards Malik's face, and when it struck, the other countered with a fist to the stomach. Seto groaned in anguish before continuing his assault. He had to get to Ryou, he just had to. "Get off of me!" He yelled, the heavy man restricting him from most movements. More blows were delivered as they rolled for dominance. It was like fighting the ocean. One second you were on top, the other you were once again at the bottom, being suffocated by force. Even if Seto managed to deliver a perfect blow, it wouldn't matter since this man was clearly stronger than him.
Malik chuckled as the pain began to ebb away from his abdomen when Seto punched him. "You are no match for me."
"He may not be, but I am!" Yami's voice rang clear over everyone's screams and struggle. A golden light illuminated the room and Malik was flung over Seto and out a window. The bars, and the glass were both shattered by the force of the blast. Seto laid stunned for only a second before jumping to his feet to find Bakura. However, they were gone. "What?" came a gasped question from the winded CEO. Yami looked over and realized they were both gone, vanished into this air. Yugi came in a tad bit late, breathless. "In...the...front." He gasped. "The front yard."

Ryou felt the cold drops hit his face as Bakura's fist was pushing him down by the collar. The blade was still raised, but the whole scenery had changed so drastically that he hadn't had time to realize what had happened. The water startled him to his senses, and the muddy feeling on the back of his neck made his realize he was now outside. "Damn your friends." Bakura cursed, not moving his position. "Damn you! Damn everyone!" His eyes were wide with a sudden anger like hate. "You, the person who thought they could defile me, lock me up in your weak body forever, are going to pay for everything. Without you I will be the only Bakura with no weakness."
"I am the victim here!" Ryou shouted, hands pushing the other's chest, trying to get him off. "My entire life you have tortured me for your own amusement! I just tried to escape! I tried to push you back to save myself! Just leave me in peace! Please!" Tears welled up in his eyes. His darker side was so psychotic and selfish he had no idea what fairness was.
"No." Bakura yelled. "You are my weakness! With you here I can be destoryed! BUT I WON'T LET YOU! You will die first, I will live forever and I won't be tied down to some useless person like you!"
"Leave me alone!" Ryou yelled back. "Just go away!"
"DO YOU STILL NOT UNDERSTAND! I WILL NEVER GO AWAY! YOU CAN'T DEMAND ANYTHING FROM ME!" Both of their voices so loud that it was shocking no one noticed. It over powered the thunder, and the rain. Then the knife flashed at a different angle and descended downward.
"No! STOP IT BAKURA!" A terrified, anguished filled scream fill the air, and everything froze. Even the rain haulted in the air for a split second, and a dark tranquility flooded the air.
