Ichigo-chan:
Howdy y'all and welcome to Chapter three. I'm your beautiful authoress
Yami:
(Holds up sign reading 'Help Us' out of Ichigo-chan's
view)
Ichigo-chan:
(oblivious) And I'm so happy people like this story!
Bakura:
(holds up sign reading 'Unite and help us take her down')
Ichigo-chan:
(still oblivious) So, I guess I'll stop rambling and get on with the story
Marik:
(holding up sign reading 'Just review and demand she free us, better yet,
demand she step down as authoress and let us write the story!')
Ichigo-chan:
(doesn't even notice her characters revolutionizing against her) So, read and enjoy, Masa-kun!
Masa-kun:
My signs are gone.
Ichigo-chan:
What? Just get the story started; I'll see if I can
find them.
Masa-kun:
'kay. Ichigo-chan does not own the characters of Yugioh, but she does however own the forest. So, on with
the story.
Stuck
With You
Chapter
3: Only a forest away
Dedicated
to Mr. Bunny
"What was I supposed to do, put up a sign on
one of the trees reading 'Stupid tomb robbers beware'?"
"Don't ask me to do your thinking
for you!"
"Yeah, I can see you're tied up
enough trying to do your own."
Yami and Bakura glared at each other
for a second.
"Maybe you could have said," Bakura
went into an imitation of Yami's voice "Go away tomb robber I am peeing."
"I said that, in so many words,
twice!" Yami argued back. "Who's the baka who didn't listen?"
Marik chose this moment to walk up,
something dangling from his hands. "Can't we all just get along?"
Yami and Bakura transferred their
glare over to him. They opened their mouth to say something only to close it
once again.
"Marik," Bakura asked carefully,
"What the hell is that in your hand."
"Dinner!" Marik replied cheerfully.
Yami and Bakura studied the bloody
lump of…whatever the hell it was carefully.
"What…what is it?" Yami asked. It
didn't look like any steak he knew.
"Well it used to be a rabbit!" Bakura
quickly put his hand over his mouth as he ran deeper into the trees, Marik
staring curiously after him. "What's his problem?"
"Well, it could have something to do
with the fact you just proposed we eat a raw rabbit." Yami was looking a bit
green himself.
"Well, what's wrong with it?" Marik
was honestly curious. It was there, he was hungry. He didn't see the problem.
"You expect us to eat…THAT?!" Yami
knew his voice was rising, but he couldn't help himself. He was stuck with a
lunatic who thought they were going to eat a raw rabbit. He shivered a bit.
"You know something?" Marik replied
snidely, "I think you're just acting snobbish."
Bakura chose that moment to wander
back, sinking into a Bakura puddle on his rock. He moaned in pain, but neither
of the others noticed him, they were too involved in their argument.
"Snobbish? Never!" Yami replied
snobbishly. "I just know that hell will freeze over and disco will come back in
style before I eat that!"
"Look, what else are we gonna eat,
it's not like one of us has a bag full of candy bars!"
The Bakura puddle trickled over to
his bag and opened it. After looking in, he was apparently satisfied and dumped
it over poring out every kind of candied sweet imaginable. "Dinner is served."
Yami and Marik stared with their
mouths open perturbed. "Bakura," Marik began, "Why the hell do you have all of
that candy?"
"I thought I might get a little
hungry." Bakura replied sarcastically
Yami and Marik looked at each other
a shrugged before digging in.
"So, what're we gonna do with it?"
"WE?! You're the one who killed it;
you're the one who brought it over here, so you'll be the one to bury the
goddamn thing." Yami replied with a vicious look.
Yami and Marik were staring at the
ball of red fluff that had once been a happy bouncy bunny wit friends and
family. Well, that'd been before Marik had murdered him. Now they were men on
the run and had to hide the corpse where the moles would never find it.
Bakura had begged off this task. He
really didn't want to have to look at that thing again!
So, Yami and Marik were left
standing here debating what to do.
"Just toss it, and we'll get as far
way from it as we possible can." Yami proposed.
Marik thought hard, but could see no
faults in Yami's plan. Pulling his arm back as far as he
could he threw the bunny corpse far far away.
Later that night, the Yami's
realized they had another problem.
"Where the hell are we going to
sleep?!"
"Well, I don't know where the two of
you are gonna sleep, but I'm sleeping on my rock." Bakura said with an air of
finality.
"Oh come on Bakura, share. Weren't
you ever taught that?" Marik pleaded
"No."
"Deep down, you must be a kind
hearted person." He tried again.
"No."
"Goddammit
Bakura move over." Marik was reaching the end of his
patience.
Bakura raised his hand, and then
extended his middle finger. Marik gave an angry cry before leaping on Bakura to
try and force him off the rock. This didn't work however; as Marik was sent
flying off five minutes later.
"Ow."
"Fine, I'll share. But no bunny
killers allowed!"
Meanwhile, back in
Ryou also was worried; apparently
his Yami had gone missing too. Yugi could tell when he'd called to see if Ryou
had seen Yami. And what made it even worse was the fact that he could no longer
feel the link to Yami either.
Please be safe Yami
Malik was sitting comfortably on the
couch, watching TV when
"Where's Marik?" She asked curiously
"Fool probably got himself lost in
the forest again." He replied carelessly, though he was really worried. He
could no longer feel Marik.
Please
don't get in trouble you baka yami
Ryou was curled up on his couch, the
millennium ring in his hand. He couldn't feel him anymore. It was his fault
Bakura was gone, if only…
Please
be safe Bakura, or I'll never get the chance to tell you I'm sorry
Yami woke up suddenly and massaged his aching back, curious as to
what was disturbing his sleep. That's when he noticed Bakura. Sweat had broken
out all over his skin; he was biting his lip hard and mumbling something in his
sleep. Yami stared at him, wondering what was wrong. That's when he noticed
that the moisture around his eyes wasn't sweat.
Tears?
Bakura:
How do you expect the reader to know?
Ichigo-chan:
Shut up. Anyway, just what was Bakura dreaming about? And just what did occur
to make him leave? Also, why are their connections to their hikari's
cut off?
Yami:
If you don't know, how do you expect them to?
Ichigo-chan:
Quiet. Also, we'll have a moment of silence for Mr. Bunny. He was once a happy
bunny full of life and (bursts into tears) I can't do this.
Masa-kun:
(Pats her shoulder reassuringly with it's tail)
Ichigo-chan:
Mr. Bunny leaves behind 500 children, three wives, and cabbage. A five minute
silence please.
…five
minutes go by…
Ichigo-chan:
Now, I hope you enjoyed this chapter, it was dedicated
to Mr. Bunny. Masa-kun
Masa-kun:
Ichigo-chan still didn't find the signs. So, please review.
(Shouts
of "Shit I forgot" can still be heard)
