trio: woohoo! I'm happy!
Yami K: why?
trio: why not?
Yami K: don't you have school today, or something?
trio: nope! ^_^ could you please do the disclaimer for me?
Yami K: *sigh* trio does not own Yu-Gi-Oh. All she owns is a few Yu-Gi-Oh cards, but that is the extent of her ownership. *looks at trio* um, she also owns Kevin and me.
trio: ^_^ on with the memories! Hmmm...who can I torture this time? Ooh, how 'bout Bakura?

_-_-_-_**Bakura**_-_-_-_
It was a perfect night. For robbing tombs, that is. The moon, nearly full, was mostly covered by clouds. The pyramids stood only a few hundred yards off, and yet I stopped. What was I thinking? I would not be shielded; I could be seen!
Then I felt a disturbance in the shadows. The world dissolved to gray, and I saw HIM. Both of them, actually. I watched silently as the pharaoh and the thief dueled. Why did she want to duel him? And was the pharaoh...blushing? I chuckled to myself. Perfect blackmail material.
Then it was over. Iras had won. Iras had won? Against the Pharaoh, the so-called King of Games? Every thief, crook, and robber within a fifteen- mile radius of the Palace already wanted her, but this would make her even more desirable. That is, if word ever leaked out. They vanished.
"Tomb robbing can wait...for now," I told myself as I started to follow them. Trust a robbers' ears more than you do your own eyes, I say. Even with their whispers, they were audible. And Iras was sensible, so why did she not suggest they be quiet? I took a wrong step, and Iras heard. She turned, but saw nothing, and went back to talking with him. Buildings can be so helpful sometimes.
I climbed up to the roof. I could watch them better from above, perhaps catch bits of conversation. And yet I made noise. Everyone knew that Iras had extremely sharp ears, and she obviously heard me. But this time, with nowhere to hide, she saw me. I saw the pharaoh nod, then her motions to come down and talk.
"Why were you watching us, Bakura?" the Pharaoh asked when we had gotten where no pathetic humans could hear us.
I glared. "That's none of your business. What are you doing, running around the city with a petty thief?" I was glad for the cover of night, as they would have seen in my eyes how I felt.
"Why do you care?" Iras questioned. "Our personal lives are none of your concern. You may as well ignore us and go back to robbing tombs or whatever." Anger at this magnitude I had never felt before.
"Iras..." the pharaoh began, but was cut off as I said, "I may have seen more than you think," then walked away. I could feel their stares piercing my back.
"Do you think he saw us...?" I heard as I walked away.
I set off to work. The pyramids now loomed before me. I was in awe, and I thanked Set for all of the help he gave me. But I was distracted. My mind was not in the tomb, where it belonged, but with Iras. Why was I thinking about her? She was completely out of my reach. "Oh great. Now I'm starting to sound like that pharaoh," I spat. I brought my mind back, and began my nightly work.
"Over here!" I heard someone yell. "I heard something over here!" I grinned as the guard slid to a stop in front of me.
"Looking for me?" the man trembled in fear, though it could have been laughter. "Well, since you've found me, I can't allow you to live. I call upon the Man-Eater Bug!" The Bug appeared, ready to do my bidding. "Why don't you take this pathetic human on a nice one-way trip," I continued, "to the Shadow Realm."

trio: AAAAHHH! My brain hurts! Bakura sure had a lot of thinking to do back then.
Yami K: well, he WAS a tomb-robber.
trio: true. But it's hard to write from his POV.
Yami K: you just did. It can't be all that hard, can it?
trio: whatever. Hey, Seto? *he looks up* could you please do the ending? *cute look*
Seto: okay, but ENOUGH WITH THE CUTE LOOK! *trio continues the cute look* *sigh* more memories coming up! If you want to read about the memories that the Yami's hold, then review!
trio: okay, that's enough. *Seto stops* it's easy enough to review...all you gotta do is press the pretty purple button!
Yami K: why?
trio: why not?
Yami K: don't you have school today, or something?
trio: nope! ^_^ could you please do the disclaimer for me?
Yami K: *sigh* trio does not own Yu-Gi-Oh. All she owns is a few Yu-Gi-Oh cards, but that is the extent of her ownership. *looks at trio* um, she also owns Kevin and me.
