Bakura's P.O.V.
"He means everything to her....She means nothing to him.....She means everything to me......I mean nothing to her"
I kept walking down the empty streets in the direction of the hospital. I knew in about an hour, it would all be over. Everyone would be happy. Barely any cars drove by me. I am thankful for that. I passed a kissing couple on the side of the street. It reminded me happier times. It was a brief second of warmth before the cold took over.
I finally reached the park. If I walked another block, I would have gone to the hospital, but that is not my intention. No, not at all. I sat down by the lake. Me and Anzu loved comming here. The park was away from the hustle and pollution of the city. It was so serene and peaceful. I sat back and watched a family of ducks swim in the dark. All of them seem carefree. They didn't even notice the snow falling around them. I just sat in the snow....watching others more fortunate then me. My hands were buried in snow, but it didn't bother me. The cold stung, but it was a good sting. The kind of sting that reminds you that you are worthless.
I took a deep breath and remembered the information Malik once told me. "The only way for any Millenium Item Spirit to truly die is to willingly kill himself. They also need a good reason to die." I had one. The blade glistened in the moonlight. The snow still fell. Did anyone have any idea that one more life would be leaving the world tonight? I doubt it. Would anyone care? Hahaha, I'm glad I can still laugh, even at times like this.
I remember that I promised Ryou I would never ever take another life. I gave him my word. That is what pains me the most. I would break my promise to him.
I stood up and walked away from the lake. A bit of snow clung to my beautiful knife. I shook the stuff off. The cold was making its way throught my body. Soon my hands were numb. A strong gust of wind made the snow twirl around my face, like a ballet dancer. "Anzu...." Dammit! She is gone! She doesn't care for you! Stop thinking about her! Yes....I had more important things to think about.
I tried to grab my Ring for reassurence. I found it was absent. My neck felt strangely light without it. But i knew that I couldn't keep it. When a Millenium Spirit takes off their item and gives it to their Aibou or the other way around, they become free. I am no longer Ryou's Yami. I am no longer Bakura. I am the Kind of Thieves. I once was anyways.....now I am a thief of innocence. A thief of joy. I am stealing Ryou's innocence and happiness. Who cares if a thief dies anyways?
It is a good thing Ryou has it. The Ring I mean. He will not die with me. No...no....he deserves to live. Life is too good for some people though. People like me.
I walked a few more paces forward to the exact center of the park. That was my favorite spot in all of Domino. Something about it drew me there. A giant statue of an angel stared over me. It stared down at anyone who walked pass. Its hands were together and it was praying. It reminded me of the Change of Heart card. I loved that card because it wasn't all evil, but not all good. It represented a perfect balance. "How appropriate" My favorite card was going to watch me pass into the afterlife.
Snow covered the aging stone. It was pure white instead of the usual molding grey. Innocent and untouched by the evils of the world. That is how it looked. Underneath its mask of snow however was its true self. Old and decaying. It was an ancient statue and inscribed on it was a message. I read the message everyday. I based my life around it ever since I learned the error of my ways.
-Good things happen to Good people-
"Hehe...Must be easy to say when your an angel. When this world can't reach you." I can't believe bullshit like that affected me. Its all a lie. Good people end up with nothing. Yugi isn't the one with Anzu and he is a good person. He loved her but he didn't get her. Ryou is a good person and had his share of girlfriends. They all left him heartbroken though. Everyone of them used him for his kindness and took advantage of him to buy them nice things. Being good, you ended up with nothing. Kaiba has been a bitch to all of us, and he ends up with the love of his life.....Yami, I don't care if he saved the world, nothing can justify how he treats Anzu. I tried to become good, it seemed like the right thing to do.....
How is it fair? I am the one who gave my heart and soul to Anzu. He is the one who treated her like a whore. Yet she loves him, not me.
"Maybe we can still be friends?" Impossible. They always want to be friends afterwards. Do they not understand that they break your heart? Do they not understand you can't face them without a tear forming in your eye? No, they will never understand.
This world is too insane for me. There is no fairness...no justice. I wanted to dystroy this world once. But I remember a phrase I myself said to Yami Malik. I raised my head to the sky.
"I am the Darkness!" My scream echoed through the park. Birds were sent flying. I looked down again. I finally realized what that meant. You can't dystroy the Darkness. Unfortunately, the Darkness covers this world completely. I can't dystroy what is already dead.
I picked up the knife. I brought it to my heart. The same heart that was so easily broken. Broken by a mortal. I half expected someone to run out of the darkness and save my life. Some sort of savior. Wouldn't that be nice? Then, a grin spread over my face. Freedom was comming. Soon, my troubles would be over. Soon, I would be at peace.
"I'm sorry Aibou...." I plunged the blade with all the force I could muster into my chest, splitting my heart in two.

I fell to the ground. I knew my time was short. I looked up and saw the angel staring at me. I could swear it was crying for me. I guess the only one's who care are the ones not of this Earth. A tear made its way down my face. A trickle of blood made its way out of my mouth. Life is so cruel. I'm glad I don't have to face its cruelty anymore. I will leave just how I arrived, alone. I guess Destiny did win in the end. Pointless to defy it really. Then, a few words escaped my mouth before light overtook me.....

I'm sorry Bakura.......*tear*
I was listening to Ashita Moshi Kimi Ga Kowaretemo, the first YuGiOh! closing theme. It's such a sad song. In fact, all the closing themes for YuGiOh! are really sad. I think I'll go listen to some Slayers music now, that always gets me happy.
Oh yea, I made the quotes up myself. If they come from somewhere, I was entirely unaware of it.
Please stay around. The epilouge is still to come.
