Chapter Sixteen
"Chapter Sixteen"
The Quote:
"Keep these concepts in mind: You've failed many times, although you don't remember. You fell down the first time you tried to walk. You almost drowned the first time you tried to swim. .... Don't worry about failure. My suggestion to each of you: Worry about the chances you miss when you don't even try."
-- Sherman Finesilver--
So, we went our separate way, Ryou happily, and quietly, pulled out his Duel Monsters Deck and looked through it, separating cards into separate piles, I noticed that he was planning a whole new strategy. I saw him flip through an old binder of cards, He put two more trap holes in, I noted.
I leaned back against the wall, glancing at the clock it was about ten till… "Yugi should be here soon…" I muttered softly. As much as I don't like that hateful Pharaoh, but I suppose Yugi isn't as bad…
I tapped my foot in rhythm to an old song I once new, a long time ago. "Come on Yugi, I have other plans to deal with later, and I don't want to miss my chance…" I mumbled a little out loud, though nobody heard me, Ryou was too into his cards and the other guy, that I suppose I will call him 'Dad' just to be a little friendly. Well I think he has a lot of unpacking and getting ready for the next dig…
Okay, I admit, I'm a little bored…I have stuff to do this morning, and a lot of other plans I need to conjure up. I began humming a short tune lowly only for me to hear…then I heard it, a knock at the door! Ryou must've heard it too, and answered quickly.
"Hello."
"Hi! Ryou! How have you been?"
"Hi, Yugi I've been pretty good, truly."
I chuckled, yeah, note the pretty good part, but Ryou has been acting a lot happier than in the past, that's probably because of me…
It was a couple of years ago, when I was around and sickening, another day of school rolling by, Ryou got up, late again, I was in my soul room starring into nothingness, just dark. Thinking…
Ryou groaned when he saw the clock, again setting his digital clock for 5:30pm instead of 5:30am. He fell out of bed and landed on the floor, his room was nothingness, though that was my fault. Ryou, who back then just slept in the next day's clothes was already dressed, I can recall having to wear the same thing for weeks on end, so don't complain… he ran into the washroom and covered up, bruises, scars, and whatever else.
Then he'd grab a beagle, or anything eatable in the whole dammed house. And ran out the door complaing, or looking depressed.
And it was the same when he would come home, sleep, eat, whine, mumble, look depressed, go back to bed, possibly get attack by me...punched, slapped… cry, forget homework…sleep…
That was Ryou's life back then, because of me. Me…it's all my fault…damn now I have mixed feelings again…
But that's what it was, my entire fault, but because I changed a little, it impacted Ryou's life a whole lot! So…if I change more will Ryou get better? And fall out of depression? Or is this all still my fault?
Well, I don't know and I have to shove these thoughts to the back of my mind until some other day.
"So, Yami Bakura…are you ready?" Yugi asked me politely.
Of coarse, he would ask me nicely, but yes I was ready… but I was ready for something else.
"Okay, Yugi."
"Great!" Yugi turned to look at Ryou and smiled before saying, "I'll have everything under control, we'll do fine. And we'll be back in an hour, give or take, all right?"
"Okay Yugi, I guess I just continue doing what I was before." Ryou gave a small smile before turning back into the living room.
"Okay, let's go!" Yugi smiled happily and walked out the door. Outside the sun was shinning, an assortment of different clouds in the sky. I followed Yugi out the door, assuming we where just going to walk down to where ever, since we weren't that far away from most of the stores.
I guess this means I'm on peace terms with this midget today. Maybe this is my chance, my chance to prove myself; to everything I've known…even myself. All right, then if this is my chance I'll have to do a good job today.
We started walking along the sidewalk when Yugi started speak, "I'm sorry that we have to walk, but I know it's not that far away, we should get there and back pretty good." Yugi looked up ahead at the clouds. The clouds where in accord with one another today, they waved across the sky like the wings of a bird, and rolled over the sky like hills.
I like the sky; it's the same sky that looked down upon me in Egypt, the same sky I looked up at. Now, it's looking down upon me today, probably laughing, but I'm the one who is going to have the last laugh one day, you will all see...
"It's fine, Yugi." I simply stated, making it clear, that I did not want to socialize with him. He got the message and kept face forward. And his mouth shut.
We were less than 15 minuets away from our destination. So like normal, my mind wandered to a far of place in the deep, dark chambers of my mind. In a little corner, in the back of my memory, was precisely where my thoughts lead...
"I'm…sorry…I hadn't meant to…" A weak soft voice whimpered.
"No, your not!" The look alike, kick the smaller boy in the back, "You'll never learn!"
"Why?" The smaller boy whimpered
"Why?" the stronger, graver one question, wanting no answer, because he answered the question himself, "Why? Because you'll never understand! You'll never see anything the way I saw the world, you'll never see my side of the story!" He kicked the smaller boy again and disappeared back to the ring around the whimpering boy's neck.
"I'm sorry…"
Oh, great just fine, see what happens when I think too much, I get horrifying memories, of myself… Why, am I shaking? My god, I can't keep my hands from shaking. Some of these memories must've really frightened me… I'm just going to breath deeply and get this over with…
We both turned the corner, and the store Yugi had in mind was in front of us. Good now it's almost over, what a relief. "We got here pretty fast, don't you think so?" Yugi perked up and asked me.
"I guess."
Yugi opened the door, and walked in, I took one last glance at the sky and the clouds. I saw three pigeons fly over the sky up in to clouds. For some reason, the sky was always at peace, and that was my peace, I liked the sky…
I turned my head from the sky and walked into the store. I looked inside the store, it was a small, general store, that was pretty general, but it had exactly what Yugi was looking for, a radio. I don't know much about modern technology, but it looked better than the one I had blow up, thanks to Yami…
Yugi picked the medium sized box off the rack and carried it to the old man by the counter, seeing this made me laugh, sorry but here is little Yugi carrying a box almost half the size of him.
He's pretty strong for a little guy; I chuckled faintly, but kept my mouth shut. Yugi did get the box to the counter, and he smiled politely at the old man.
The old man, looked for the bar code, after finding it, he punched in some numbers on the keyboard. "That's $29.99 young man." He spoke with the same politeness Yugi had. Yugi handed him a green card and slid it through a box with numbers on it. Then he presses four numbers and stuck the card back inside his pocket. "Here you are." The old guy smiled and glanced at me. Here we go with the odd glances again.
"Hello, Ryou. How have you been?"
I sweat dropped; does Ryou know this person too? Do I look that much like him? Seriously…
"Ah…I'm fine, thank you." Five second, nice, answer!
"Good to hear that." He smiled. "Well, off with you!"
"Bye!" Yugi smile and picked up the bag, that said "John's General Store." He walked over with much difficult and handed the bag to me, "Your turn." Yugi said to me and walked out the door.
Again, all of you go thank Pink Sugar, or this chapter would've been very short…
And, thank you all, so much...
