KMC: *Is crying*

Yugi: What's wrong KMC?

KMC: I-I missed the first episode of Yu-Gi-Oh last weekend... *sniff* I can't believe I set up my tape wrong.

Yugi: Awwwww *pat pat* It'll be on again.

KMC: *Is still crying*

Joey: I will just be reading the disclaimer... KMC doesn't own Yu-Gi-Oh or any of us... she only wishes she did.

Bakura: Joey, show a bit of compassion....

Joey: The girl made me sick...

Bakura: *Chucks millennium ring at Joey* I said show compassion damn it!

Yugi: *Is staring at Bakura* Now that's just not right.

Yugi sat in the waiting room of the hospital, wringing his hands. He didn't know what was going to happen to his friends.

"Calm down aibou, I'm sure Bakura and Joey will be just fine!" said Yami, inside of Yugi's head.

"I hope so," said Yugi softly.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

(Bakura's point of view)

My eyes opened slowly, pain and dizziness welcoming me back to reality. I looked around. Stark white wall surrounded me and my body felt so heavy that I could barley move. Summoning every bit of strength I had, I sat up, trying to remember what had happened. I grabbed my head as all the memories came flooding back, making my headache worse. Joey... was he okay? I had to make sure.

I lifted my arm, and realized an IV was in it. It finally hit me that I was in the hospital... talk about a slow reaction. What should I do? I wanted to see Joey... to make sure that I hadn't screwed up completely. I was swinging my legs over the side of the bed when the door clicked open. A woman walked in, in a white coat and with a clipboard. She had short brown hair and large brown eyes. Tall and thin, she was very pretty. She smiled at me and shook her head.

"You sure are oblivious to being sick aren't you?" she said walking over to me. Apparently she was sarcastic too.

Without any effort at all, she lifted my legs and swung them back onto the bed. I tried to protest but she waggled her finger at me.

"Now, now I know you're confused, but you have to calm down and stay in bed. Otherwise you'll just make yourself worse. You may not realize it but you are pretty sick. You have to recover before you move at all. If you were to actually get yourself on the floor, you would've toppled like a game of Jenga. Personally I'm amazed you were able to lift yourself up. You must have nerves of steel," said the woman as she pulled the white sheets over me.

"Please, I want to know how my friend is? And who you are," I said.

"Well, the name's Dr. Matsa, but you can just call me Dr. Kris. I don't like being formal with my patients unless I have to. Anywho, your friend is the blond boy that came in with you, correct?" said Dr. Kris, checking her clipboard.

"Yes, his name is Joey, I want... I want to see him," I said trying to lift myself up again, but this time sickness took it's toll and I flopped back onto my bed, dizziness beating me silly.

"All right honey, if you don't calm down, I'm going to sedate you," she said smiling in a good-natured way, "But I can't let you see your friend yet. He's still out like a light. I'll tell you what, if you let me check on him for you, I'll send in the short guy that came in with you to talk,"

"Be nice Dr Kris, his name is Yugi," I stated shaking my fist feebly at her.

"Okay, I'll be nice. I'll send Yugi in. I was only playing with you anyway," said my doctor as she walked out of the room.

A few minutes later, Yugi popped his head in the door, smiling slightly.

"Hey Bakura, you okay?" asked Yugi.

"I've been better Yugi," I stated.

"Awwwww, I'm sorry Bakura," he said, pulling up a chair next to my bed.

"Yugi, were you the one who brought Joey and me here?" I asked.

"Yeah, but Yami helped me out. He made sure Joey was okay while I checked on you," said Yugi.

Yami's name struck a chord. My yami must've regained consciousness while I was out. He stirred in my mind and began screaming at me. I winced and Yugi took notice.

"Hey Bakura, are you all right?" asked Yugi.

I barely heard him over my yami's voice. Before I knew it, I had blacked out again.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

(Yugi's POV)

Just as Bakura blacked out, the woman who had come and gotten me came back in.

"Listen Bakura, your friends still out and..." she stopped when she saw he had passed out.

"Oh dear," she said, walking over and checking all off the monitors around him.

"Heart rate has increased, but nothing too serious.... He'll be okay, he just must've exhausted the little strength he had,"

I breathed a sigh of relief and she turned on me.

"Hey, you're Yugi right? Bakura was glad when I said I was sending you in," she stated.

"So you're Bakura's doctor?"

"Yeah, Dr. Kris is my name. Hate getting formal with patients unless I have to," she said shortly, "I just finished explaining that to Bakura."

"Ah. Hey, how's my friend Joey?" I asked.

"The blond one's fine. He's just unconscious, and I think it will take a while before he wakes up. He's suffered some respitory problems before he got here, so they will have to keep him here for a couple of days," Dr Kris informed me.

"Oh... I'm just glad he's all right. I was afraid I might've been too late when I found them," I said.

"You were great to bring them here. They both needed help," said Kris.

"Yeah,"

"Well, I'll inform you when your friends are okay. You go back to the waiting room alright?" she said.

"Sure," and I walked out of the room, Yami feeling the need to shove it in my face that I had worried so much, when both of my friends would be okay.

KMC: I'm dragging this out as long as possible.

Bakura: You mad me pass out again?!

KMC: Yeah. Your point?

Bakura: *Grumbles*
