Reality strikes

A/N: well, chap 4, I hope you all like this so far, and if you're a little bored I can promise you that it'll probably get better from here. Oh, and I found out that Ryou actually did have a sister, but she died, well, as much as I would love to be accurate, it would kind of ruin the entire point of this story, so my apologies. Well, it's getting a little late, so I think I'll scoot and let you read on!

Note: a huge thank you to Yugiohluver for reviewing! Thanks for reviewing! And a thank you to S.A Bonasi for reviewing and giving me a lot of advice, go read her fics! And now that I'm done ranting you can go and read the rest of this one.

Yami and Bakura burst out of the kitchen, up the stairs with the two younger ones following unnoticed. Bakura pounded on the door

"Asami!" no answer. They crashed the door open to find her curled in a tight ball on the ground. Her eyes were closed and her face twisted with pain

"Asami!" yami shouted, springing at her

"get out!" she shrieked. Her cry was like a hunted animal.

"but..."

"get out now!" she buried her head and screamed. The shriek rang through the house days later. Then she unfolded and lay on the ground, screaming and thrashing

"we better keep her in here." Bakura said as she lay jerking on the floor.

"oh yah!" yami screamed as she jumped up, heading for the door and the two little boys. They each grabbed an arm and held on for dear life. She thrashed, scratched, fought and bit at them. Her screams echoed there. She looked like a wild animal, sweating with wide mad eyes. She shrieked, screamed and cried. They held onto her, not willing to let her ggo.

After about five minutes of hell the shrieks turned to wails of pain, then went to sobs, then to unconsciousness. The room was frozen like that. Ryou and Yugi standing frozen in the doorway, Yami and Bakura in the middle of the room supporting the unconscious girl. Finally the spell was broken. She twitched and her eyes flickered open. They lowered her to the floor whare she crouched on her hands and knees, vomiting and panting for air. Yami looked at Bakura who looked at Asami.

"are you ok?" Ryou asked timidly from the corner. She nodded

"can we get you anything?" Yami asked

"coffee." she rasped. Yami looked at the two younger boys and they went downstairs to make the coffee. Asami tried to get up but fell back to the carpet. Bakura slipped out to go answer a call from the boys and it was just the two of them.

"do you need some help?" she smiled weakly at him

"that'd be nice." but instead of pulling her to her feet, he picked her right up off the floor and carried her down the steps.

"well," she whispered "I wasn't expecting that,"

"neither was I." he said, depositing her on a chair and pooring her a cup of coffee. She drained it quickly and leaned back, staring up at Ryou and Bakura who stared at her

"well," she laughed "now that you've seen the more pure evil side of me, do you still want me to stay, I could've killed any of you, I don't know what I'd do if anything happened to any of you." they all just laughed at her

"there's no way you're leaving now sami," Ryou chirped, walking around and plopping himself in her lap. She stroked his hair.

"I haven't been called sami for years, ok, I'll stay, but only promise me one thing, if you ever see that happen again you'll lock me up, and if my eyes change even in the slightest, get me away from people, that means that it won't be long before I go into total freak out mode, and then I'm really dangerous." she leaned back and closed her eyes.

"I have a question." yugi said, leaning against yami on the couch

"what's that?" Asami mumbled

"well, you sounded like you were in pain, I thought you were pure evil and that you'd just try and kill us, or something like that"

"well, luckily for you, I still had a little bit of sanity..." Bakura laughed

"I beg to differ,"

"shut up," she smacked his shoulder affectionately, "if I'd lost it all I probably would've killed you, you see, the reason my yami comes out is that she has to much stored up energy, when I let my mental block down and she comes out, if I can keep part of my mind I can hold back a little, but this is unimaginably painful because there is so much energy that it feels like my insides are being torn apart, that's the problem, sometimes I'd rather loose it completely thatn deal with that," she shivered and got up, "if you don't mind, I'm going to sleep for a while, I really need it, you cannot imagine how much that takes out of you."

yami picked her up and dropped her on the couch, "we'll go over to Yugi's and my side of the house for a little while, sleep well." they all left.

"sleep well," bakura mocked as they sat in yami's kitchen.

"shut up"

"admit, you like Ryou's sister, my sister for that matter,"

"where in your unright mind did you come up with that," bakura just smirked

"it's the most obvious thing in the world farrow, she's pretty, smart, and single, you're ugly, stupid and single," Ryou looked horrified

"Bakura! that's mean!"

"well, it's true,"

"yes, I see the family resemblance, not," yami sneered playfully "she's pretty, sweet, caring and you...well" Yugi punched him

"stop bickering, the bare fact is that yami likes the pretty, smart and crazy Asami,"

"trator, you're supposed to support me" yami grumbled

"yah, and pigs fly," Yugi teased

"you have been hanging out with Bakura WAY to much,"

"if only he WOULD turn out like me," said Bakura, "perfect in every way," Ryou snorted and tried to hide his laughter.

"shut up and go do something else." The boys left the kitchen and yami, who was thinking, did he really have feelings for her, or was he just the friend in need, could he be in love? No, he had only know her for about an hour. What was wrong with him! He couldn't be in love. People just didn't fall in love because they carried a nutcase down the stairs after almost being murdered, stuff like that just didn't happen, especially not to him. No, he wasn't in love, or was he, could it be possible? No, not possible at all... or was it?

A/n: ooooh! Is Yami in love? This is sort of depressing, I want him and one of my own chars is taking him!...well, I do...um *sweat drops* yah, it's the coke, always does that to me, well, review! As usual, I will post the next chapter as soon as I get one review telling me to continue this. So, again, review! And you know the drill, all flames will be givebn to Bakura, and you don't want that.

Bakura: ooooooh, shiney and firey and pretty! *pats a new flame thrower*

Uh...yah, so PLEASE don't give him flame thrower food *gets on her knees* pretty pretty please? Let me tell you something, he's not quite right in the head, and when you give him fire it makes it worse, so if you missed my point, don't flame! There, I think I made my point. the next chappy will be up soon, review pretty pretty please? Everyone who reviews gets a bakura plushy!

thanks
