Disclaimer: I suck. You think I own anything? HAH. I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, so
get over it..
News: Okay, it's been a LONG time since I've written anything, and I've realized this story is crap and it's turning into crap. So, I'm going to try and fix it, and there might be an alternate ending. Because it's special. Sorry if it gets. more like crap. lol. And I'm sorry there's a sudden change in a certain character's personality, it wouldn't have been like that in the story but I want to write it like that. Oh, and I'm using lyrics from a song I'm obsessed with right now. just so you know. I don't own that song either. Or the singer. o_O
Bakura opened his eyes the next morning, sitting up and rubbing the sleep from them while trying to figure out where he was.
'Ah yes, Ancient Egypt. I remember now.' He thought as he looked around the room, no one was there with him, not even Kali.
'Huh??? Where's Kali, where could she have run off to?'
Bakura slipped out of the bed and looked down at the tunic-like robe he was in, only shaking his head a little before walking into the main chamber. The younger Yami walked in from a set of stairs and looked up to see him standing there, he bowed quickly and stopped.
"Good morning my highness. Can I do anything for you?" he asked, Bakura shook his head.
"No thank you. Do you know where Kali went?" he asked curiously, Yami nodded, seemingly happy to be able to answer.
"Yes, I saw her walking into the desert, early this morning. I believe that she's sitting nearby." He looked at Bakura, wondering if he had answered his question, Bakura nodded and ventured outside.
(Kali 3rd Person POV)
Kali was indeed sitting outside, on a rock near the temple. She held her Ring in her lap, looking down at it.
'What is this? What does it mean? It's all so confusing. and how can I. how can I love Bakura? No, how can I love ANYONE.?' she thought, raising her head when she heard the sound of a flute, playing a tune that sounded strangely familiar.
'What is that? Oh, it's.' Kali stopped thinking once she remembered the lyrics, she glanced around to make sure no one was looking before she started to sing quietly.
"There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea.. you became the light on the dark side of me.. love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.. but did you know. that when it snows. my eyes become large and. the light that you shine can be seen."
Kali took a deeper breath and started singing louder, and with more soul, putting how she felt into the words.
"Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.... the more I get of you. the stranger it feels. Yeah. and now that your rose is in bloom.. a light hits the gloom on the gray..." she stopped when she saw a pair of bare feet stop in front of her, she looked up, blushing furiously when she saw Bakura standing there, looking at her thoughtfully.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to bother you." Bakura apologized, wondering if she was singing about him even though he didn't need to, he knew she was.
"No, it's okay, Bakura." Kali shook her head, scooting over and patting the place next to her, he sat.
"Yami is coming to get us today, isn't he? I have a strange feeling that whatever we're going to do, it's dangerous." Bakura let his hands hang down between his legs as he turned his head to look at her, a worried expression on his face.
"I don't want anything to happen to you, Kali." He sighed, Kali closed her eyes as tears suddenly sprang to life.
"Please Bakura, don't worry for me. I'm not worth the trouble." She looked down at the sand, Bakura raised an eyebrow.
"Why wouldn't I worry about you? I love you." He frowned as she began to cry harder, he put his arm around her back and hugged her.
"Kali, what's the matter?" he asked, Kali wiped her eyes and pulled away from him.
"Bakura, please, don't say you love me. You shouldn't. You deserve someone better than me." she looked at him sadly, Bakura just looked confused and a little offended.
"Kali, please, just tell me what the matter is! Why are you acting like this!?!"
Kali sighed and turned her head, lifting herself from the rock.
"I'm just afraid, Bakura, that I can't love anyone. I've never felt love before, or the way I feel about you. I'm so close to being certain that I'm in love with you that I'm scared. I'm scared that if I do fall completely in love with you, that I won't. I don't know, maybe I'm afraid that I'll only hurt you." Bakura noticed that she really did look scared, but he couldn't understand the sudden change.
"Kali, I am in love with you, and I guess I know how you feel. but I know that this is right and I want you to love me too. How could it hurt me to have you love me?" he asked, trying to understand the problem. Kali bit her lip.
"I don't know 'how' to love. I'm scared of it. I've never been shown affection before and now that you have I'm nervous. Please don't be offended, I just don't want to hurt you." Bakura stood and pulled her closer, embracing her again.
"Kali, I don't think you could ever hurt me, you're a sweet girl and you wouldn't hurt anyone, you know that." they remained in their embrace until they heard a horse neigh close behind them and someone's feet hit the ground. They parted and turned around to see a black stallion and it's rider, a burnt looking man in thief robes.
"Who are you???" Bakura asked, the man took a step forward.
"I am Auriel, the keeper of the desert. I have your friend Yami in the temple and I'm not letting him go unless you can defeat me in the dueling arena. no one leaves here unless they can defeat me!" Kali and Bakura's eyes went wide, Auriel crossed his arms.
"I'll duel you." Bakura answered, stepped forward. The man nodded his head once and signaled for them to follow, which they did hesitantly. Once there, Bakura looked around and suddenly realized his mistake.
"This isn't a duel monsters arena. this is a fighting arena!" he said in a panic, Kali gasped.
"What!?!"
Auriel laughed and threw Bakura down into the fighting pit, jumping down after.
"I never said what kind of duel this was, silly boy! Now stand and face me!"
Bakura spit out some sand that had entered his mouth and slowly got up onto his feet, his bottom lip split and bleeding because he had bit it when he fell. He glared at Auriel and clenched his fists, licking the blood off his lip and swallowing it.
"Where are our weapons?" he asked, Auriel shook his head.
"No weapons, only hands and magic!" Bakura's eyes went wide once more.
'No weapons? . Magic!?! I don't know any! Oh, how am I going to survive?'
Kali gasped again, and looked over to the side, Yami was chained to the wall. She ran towards him.
"Yami, oh, are you alright?" she asked, he nodded.
"Don't worry about me. You need to help Bakura. He won't last long against Auriel's magic attacks, you need to find something to deflect them. hurry!" he hissed, Kali hesitated before running out of the arena, frantically looking for something to reflect a magic attack back at Auriel.
"Are you ready, fool? Auriel asked, Bakura licked his lip again and took a deep breath, glaring at the man.
"Ready." He replied, just barely jumping out of the way as Auriel shot a bolt of electricity from a hand he kept behind his back, Bakura rolled on the ground and jumped back up to his feet, his heart racing.
'This is it. I'm going to die here in Egypt.'
Okay, there's an update, are you happy? :p Actually I've got a new inspiration, so you'll probably see more of this story now.
