Chap. 3-Naked

Fate quickly ran after the evil side of Ryou. She panted heavily. He kept staring at her, wondering why she was following. He knew she didn't see him do any recent robbings. He finally stopped and panted by a waterfall. "Why were you following me, girl?"Bakura asked. His semi-raspy, deep voice was no where near as warming as Ryou's good side. "Um, I'll tell you if you step into this room."she replied with a slight smile. She pushed the door half open with her foot. "No way! You must be that weird girl that Ryou keeps meeting. Scram!"he paused. She just gave him a look. He put his hand on the hole that was used as a door knob; he didn't pull forward, waiting for Fate's response.

Fate gave a sly smile. He looked at her, and didn't move an inch. She slowly put her hand on his. They both smiled as the door opened and they fell in. They just layed there. Fate sighed. Ryou knew as long as they were both in that room, he was safe from the evil spirit. He relized they were in an abandoned food tent. Neither wanted to leave. Fate no longer felt alone, she had his company. She told him her problems, her feelings, and he would always listen with a smile. Anything, he always seemed so interested, he really cared how she felt. Fate felt refreshed, like even though her family was gone, she could make it. "Ryou, eventually, we'll have to leave. We can't stay here forever."she paused. She wish she could. She felt so naked around him. She could tell him anything. She trusted him. "I know."he frowned,"I know he's going to do something terrible. He's gold-hungry. I'm afraid he might do anything to get what he wants, or what Malik wants."

"What? Who's Malik?" "Oh, Bakura's like, Malik's partner in crime. They both want to be as powerful as the dark pharoah. I'm afraid he'll take an innocent person's life. I cannot let him do it. I couldn't live, running away, because he would hide when I run away. They'll think I did it!" "You would never do anything like that! I wouldn't let them believe! Yet, you cannot let that happen. You know, how I told you about what the Pharoah told me..." "Yes"he sighed. He was cracking under the pressure. What if his darkside did kill someone in the future, or maybe in the past? "He also told me, anyone who believes their light is stronger, it is. I believe you can be strong. He said to never be afraid to reveal your light, Ryou! Believe in yourself! I know you can be stronger! You heart is in the right place!" "I don't think I can, Fate. Not unless your with me. But that would be too much of a bother. I couldn't ask you to do that."

"What if I said I wanted to?" she blushed. He was startled, "Are you sure?"he asked. They stood up. She pushed the door wide open. The sun was harsh on their eyes. She grabbed his hand and pulled him out. "We can do it, together!"she smiled.

Fate gave him great advice. She felt like she owed it to him. He helped her regain full confidence. Their adventure, together, was completed. Malik always trying to kill him, Malik always trying to kill her, their friendship growing. Fate showed him the full light. They eventually fell in love. They got married, and as soon as they did, he went on a long trip. When he came back, he said,"I brought a souvineer, Fate." She smiled as she saw her dog! She smiled as tears flowed down her cheek. Her only living family member. They kept her as their pet, the dog eventually died. They started a family, and then they grew old. Fate, who thought she would commit suicide when she was twelve, met Ryou instead. Malik killed Fate when she was older. Ryou lost hope, and forgot the incredible advice he gave her. His darkside came back and he died of losing all hope in light.
