Okay, tell me what you thought, i'm trying to come up with other stories so, bie.
(Oh, good news! I'm going to use paragraphs! T_T)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
-------------------------
Drans House
-----------------------
Yugi: Where could she have gone?
Joey: I'm stumped.
Tristan: You haven't even thought of anything.
Joey: I know.
Ryou: All she said before she disappeared was that she was in the sha.
Yugi: What could she have meant?
*Yami's Soul room*
Yami: Hmm...
Yugi: What do you think Yami?
Yami: Sha...Sha....shadow realm!
Yugi: Thats it! Thanks Yami!
Yami: Anytime.
*outside*
Yugi: Yami says she's in the shadow realm you guys!
Mai: I hate that place.
Joey: Yeah, we all know.
Ryou: How did she get there though?
Yugi: All i know is thats where she is.
Mai: Well, how are we going to get there?
Tristan: Not like we can teleport or something.
Ryou: Maybe, that book of Dran's has something in it that can get us there.
Joey: Well, lets go then!
---------------------------------------------
Drans house (Hmm...twelvish.)
---------------------------------------------
Ryou: *Flipping through the giant books pages* I can't find anything...no wait! Here's something.
Yugi: It says, shadow realm transport spell.
Joey: Now thats a horse of a different color!
Tristan: There's no horses here.
Yugi: Into the shadows we take our courage and our hearts, ready to fight off all offences...
The room lit up with black light as they were swept into the very pages of the book and transported to the shadow realm. Yugi looked around for a moment. Ryou wasn't there with them, but Yugi figured he was safe. H elead the group into the darkness and they heard Drans singing. Yugi follwed it into a large, arena like room. Ryou was sitting in the middle, tied up. He was glaring in every direction. Yugi rushed over to him and untied him.
Yugi: You okay?
Ryou: Fine.
Mai: Did you find Dran?
Ryou: Well, thats the bad thing...
Joey: Is she okay?
The doors around the area come down and lock
Ryou: I'm not sure, but i don't think we'll be for long.
Bakura: *walks out of the last gate as it locks behind him* So, you're looking for Dran?
Mai: What'd you do with her this time?
Bakura: Nothing. I haven't seen her.
Yugi: You're lying.
Bakura: I saw her run by here, but she was running pretty fast.
Joey: Gee...From you maybe?
Yugi: Just give her up already. We know you have her here somewhere.
Bakura: I can't get away with anything now a days can i?
Dran: *Walks up behind Bakura*
Bakura: You know, fear is a good motive.
Mai: Dran, you okay?
Dran: Fine...
Yugi: *whispers to Ryou* Why isn't she coming over here?
Ryou: She's too scared
Bakura: Yes indeed. Very scared at that. *strokes her hair*
Dran: *doesn't respond*
Ryou: You're twisted.
Bakura: Better to be twisted than good.
Yugi: Ryou, are we going to save her?
Mai: Yugi, we can't. He has her in his grasp. He can do anything to her.
Joey: Eh, you let her go you! *tries to punch him in the face*
Dran: *Shoves him backwards*
Joey: *Lands at Tristans feet*
Tristan: Looks like he has himself a body gaurd.
Ryou: I'm tired of this. Come on Dran. *picks her up*
Dran: *Bites him and snarls*
Bakura: She knows better.
Yugi: *Yawns* I feel tired...
Mai: So do i.
Joey&Tristan: *Are already asleep*
Bakura: Now it's just us three. You know your friends aren't very capable of protecting one another.
Dran: *Sneers* Haha.
Ryou: Dran, why are you being like this?
Bakura: You think she'd be nice and protect her captor.
Dran: *sits down* Bored..*sighs*
Ryou: Come home Dran...*sits on the ground*
Yugi: *Snoring*
Dran: Zipper pull.
Yugi: *has a zipper over his mouth*
Bakura: Come Dran. *Begins to walk the other way* Oh and by the way...*makes a cage fall on top of Ryou*
Dran: *Follows but stops* Ryou...
Ryou: *staring at the ground*
Dran: *runs towards the cage*
Bakura: Get back here!
Dran: *slashes the cage into peices* Ryou, come on!
Ryou: Alright! thats more like it!
Yugi: Ryou? Did you get her?
Mai: lets get out of here!
Dran: *staring at Bakura running towards them* One last thing *jumps out of Ryou arms and towards Bakura*
Bakura: *stops running* Wha..?
Dran: Bye bye. *Uses a shockwave to make him rocket backwards*
Joey: SCORE
Tristan: Shut up.
Bakura Staggered to his feet and glared at Dran. A millenium eye symbol glowed on her forehead. She looked around. It wasn't any one in that room. She put her hand on top of the symbol, but it was too hot. It stung something nasty, but she managed to re locate evey one. The doors were still locked. She turned around quickly trying to find a way to escape. There was a small hole above the gate. Just big enough for a rat. Her brain was going on full throttle thinking. Bakura was getting closer. Then it hit her. she turned into a small black rat and scurried through the wall. Ryou looked after her wondering what on earth she was doing out side. Yugi pulled every one away from the wall. Perfect timing. A giant dinosaur like creature was standing in the ruins. Dran was sitting on it.
Dran: Need a ride?
Yugi: Why are you riding a dinosaur? *sweatdrop*
Dran: Ey, this is the shadow realm.
Ryou: *shrugs*
Everyone hopped onto it's back and they ran out the door. Bakura didn't seem to follow he didn't need to. He had Ryou. Ryou looked at the ring as it glowed softly. Dran wasn't paying attention. She was shifting it into full gear and the wind (didn't know there was wind in the shadow realm V_VU) was blowing everywhere. The symbol on her forehead disappeared. Dran looked back at Ryou but...there was a problem. Bakura tackled Dran off the two story high dinosaur's back. She landed with a crack and the dinosaur skidded to a hault. it made a screech sound, like a raptor or something. Bakura was smiling. How could she have forgotten? She rolled her eyes and threw him off of her. Well, when people say strength lies in rage, they were right.
And at that moment, Bakura was pretty mad. Dran yet again came up with a plan. She seemed to go through the floor and disappeared into the shadows. (Cever) Bakura looked around cautiously. Dran jumped out from the wall at him. Her eyes had grown smaller than a pens point. He flew backwards and landed on his feet. (after a blow like that he should be DEAD) Dran turned around and looked at him. She smiled. Blood streaked down his back and dripped onto the floor.
Dran returned to her normal childish state. She ran. Ryou watched from Bakura's soul room. Yugi and the others followed her. He yelled to her, but she couldn't hear him. Dran looked over her shoulders. The rose turned to the roseblade and she sliced through the shadows and they were back at her house.
Dran: Although i just saved us all, what just happened?
Joey: Eh, i don't know.
Tristan: Well, that was scary. *passes out*
Yugi: I rode a dinosaur in the shadow realm..wait till i tell this to Grandpa!
Mai: *yawns* Well, i'm taking these two home. *grabs Joey and Tristan*
Tea: Bye Mai!
Dran: TEA?! WHERE'D YOU COME FROM?!
(Oh the randomness!)
Tea: I just walked in the door. ^____^
Dran: *Sighs* Oh well. Just skittish. *looks around*
Tea: Did Ryou go with you guys?
Dran: *sits up instantly* Ryou! Where is he?
Yugi: Dran...he's still in the shadow realm...
Dran: I have to go back in! *begins to pull out the rose balde*
Tea: *puts her hand on Drans shoulder* If you have justcame back from the shadow realm, you should wait till you go back in.
Dran: But Ryou might be in trouble!
Yugi: I'm sure he'll be fine. He can manage.
Dran: *Looks out at the now appearing moon* I hope so...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day(Don't you people ever get tired of the time? 5:00 a.m.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dran was the first to wake up that morning. It was still early and the sky was grey. She toom some time to wask her white and gold dress and headed out the door after it was dry. No one was out except some stray cats and some early birds. She peeked around every corner that she went by. The streets of Battle City were currently foggy. She could barely see. Someone grabbed her around the throat. She began to fall asleep. She looked up and someones purple eyes stared down at her. They looked familiar, but she was too tired to make out their face. She passed out.
Yugi had a bad dream and awoke several minutes after it happened. He had a dream Dran was kidnapped by someone. He chuckled softly. Mai had come home previously. Dran wasn't there. He stared around the room. Drans parents were staring at him from their painted places. Dran was painted while looking at the floor. He decided Dran was probally out walking. His elbow hit something hard. He lifted up a large book. Scrap book it said on the cover. He opened it. It was pretty old. one photo particualrily interested him. She was standing next to someone. Who..was that? Malik?! What was he doing in her photo album? She was smiling and so was he. A smile? On his face? Creepy. He turned the page. The next photo was strange. Her father was standing in front of the Sphinx. She was sitting on top of his shoulders, giving the peace sign. The sun didn't even blaze on the picture. Weird pictures. The next one was her standing in front of..Shadi?
Yugi: This is one creepy album...
Yami: Is something wrong Yugi?
Mai: *stretches*
Yugi: Look at this Yami. *hands him the picture of her and Malik*
Yami: Why would she be with him?
Mai: Hey, Yugi, is everything alright? Hey, isn't that Malik? *points to photo*
Yugi: Thats what concerns me. Look at this picture album. It's full of strange photo's.
She began flipping through the pages. She came across a picture of her holding something. She wasn't holding it really. It just, looked like it had attached itself to her. She was tugging on her moms shirt. It looked like some kind of armband. The next one was the same, only her mother was yelling at her and she had another band on. The next one showed her with dark lines and gold finger nails. Obviously she's a troubled child.
Tea: Well, judging by these pictures, she obviously has a bad past. *shows him*
--------------------------------------------
Somewhere same time
-------------------------------------
(Flashback)
Dran: *Six years old* Mommy, do you have any water?
Monica: *Hands her some bottled water* Here you go sweetie.
Manager: Hey, Moni, wats the deal with bringin' your daughter on the dig?
Monica: She wanted to come. She lives here. She should know these things.
Dran: *A gold band materalizes on her wrist* Mommy, what is this?
Monica: *looks* There's nothing there.
Dran: *watches more gold bands appear up her arms and around her ankles* What are these things?
Manager: Kid, there's nothing there. Now shoo.
Dran: *gets dark lines under her eyes* Moooomy...
Monica: Stop being a pain Dran.
Dran: *Goes walking in the city*
Shadi: *Walks up behind Dran* You are Dran correct?
Dran: *turns around* Who are you?
Shadi: That is of no importance to you. This is for you. Never let it go. *Hands her a small gold rose and disappears*
Dran: *Has black and gold streaks running through her hair* I gotta show mommy! Runs to the dig site* Mr. Manager.
Manager: What is it you little brat?
Dran: Where's my mommy?
Manager: She's on the plane with your father getting ready to leave.
Dran: Okays! *runs to the plane* Mommy!
Monica: Yes dear?
Dran: Look what someone gave me! *holds up the small golden rose*
Drea: Well, that thing looks interesting. Dran, pack up dear. We're getting ready for take off in about an hour.
Dran: Kay! *runs through the streets again*
She ran past many people. It seemed another archeoligist was there too. he was examing a ring with many points coming from it. She ran past all the booths and got her things from the dig site. She uncovered something in the sand. It looked like a necklace. It had a bug pushing a sun into the sky. It had lots of jewels on it. She picked it up and put everything back on the plane. She sat in the bedroom and watched as she left her home behind. She placed her hand on the window. She could've sworn she saw a giant dragon looming above the city. She just needed to sleep. She sat on her bed and took her hair from the horned caps it was in. (Yes, her hair is VERY spikey) It fell to her sides and shook loosely. It was that night that everything went wrong.
(End Flashback)
Dran: Hmm? *still a little drowsy*
Malik: *looking over her* Sleep well?
Dran: BEAST! *tries to rip his face off*
Malik: A vain attempt. *sits in a chair nearby*
Dran: Where are we?
Malik: Only the place where you once help Seto Kaiba Hostage. *Fiddling with a god card*
Dran: *catches a glimpse of the image*
For a second, she could have sworn she saw a giant dragon looming over the city.
Dran: That! What is it?
Malik: Interested are we? This is a god card. And it's the Winged Dragon of Ra. Nosey. *grins*
Dran: Grr...*pokes the floor*
The floor rippled like water. She pulled her hand away quickly. Malik glanced her way.
Malik: I see you find the floor amusing.
Dran: *Teleports out of the chamber**reappears at her house*
--------------------------------------------------------------
Drans house. You already knew that. 7 am.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Yugi: *Still looking at the photo album with Tea and Mai*
Dran: Where is Ryou? Is he back yet?
Tea: Dran, i didn't hear you come in.
Mai: Ryou hasn't come back yet.
Dran: *curses in Egyptian* Well, i'm getting tired of waiting.*uses the blade to open the shadow realm* Later. *jumps through*
Yugi: There she goes.
Tea: And she claims she doesn't love him.
Mai: As if. *Smiles*
-----------------------------------
Shadow realm
----------------------------
Dran: *Sits down on the ground and whispers into the rose blade* Find Ryou.
The blade flickered and an image of Ryou came through. He was on a dueling feild. He must have gotten himself into a duel with Bakura somehow she thought to herself. He was losing and something sinister lurked behind Bakura. It looked like some cannon. WHile it was still playing she got up and began running. She could hear someone's life points go down. She jumped through another glob of shadow and came out next to the arena. Ryou looked down at her as his life points were struck to zero. His feet were locked in place. The cannon that was behind bakura looked in front of Ryou. it began to power up. Drans eyes materialized dark lines beneath them. She gabbed the head off the cannon and squeezed. She used all her strength.
The head of the cannon came off. But it was still powering up. It was now ready to fire. She climbed in front of Ryou. The blast released from the cartridge. Dran jumped in front of it. The show hit home. It zapped her right above the heart. Pain etched it's way through her veins. She gritted her teeth. Ryou looked on helplessly. The color drained from her face as hr heart was coming to a stop. Her eyes were turning colors. But they stopped at gold. Her eyes widened.
******************************************************************************
Dran, we will always love you, no matter what happens. You can be
the worls most awful person, and we would still love you. If we ever died,
then you need to be strong and courageous. Dont let that courage die.
If you die, then it dies. Keep strong!
******************************************************************************
She shifted slightly and her fingernails were extending. She tried to fight it. She just wanted to die. All she wanted was to die. To leave and never return. Her teeth were growing as well. The golden bands from her flashback were coming into sight. The lines beneath her eyes were darker now. Keep strong. Don't ever let that courage die. She opened her eyes wider. They now resembled cats eyes, with those slits in them. She tightened her body as bst as she could. She forced her hands in front of her. The blast was stopped at her hands. She progressed forwards, pushing the beam back into the source. This could kill her.but she didn't want Ryou to die.She glared up at Bakura, who was laughing like a drunk man in a corny comedy club. (Very, very hard.) She shoved it into the mouth of the cannon and it overloaded. Bakura ducked down and so did Ryou. She closed her eyes and a tear ran down her face.
The machine ignited. It exploded. Bakura and Ryou were safe, but Dran was badly hurt. She held her hand to her side, trying to keep her blood from spilling to the floor.. Her fore head was beaded with sweat and her throat was on fire. She swallowed her saliva. It was just as hot as her throat. She glanced back towards Ryou and smiled. Her eyes went blank. She fell onto the floor and the rose clinged tauntingly on the ground. Her celtic rose necklace still hung from her neck. She was dead. Ryou peeked over the top of the arena and saw Dran lying on the ground.
Bakura: She dies too much. *sniggers*
Ryou: SHUT UP! *hits him with a rock*
Bakura:*Is hit on the head by the rock* You've got guts...ow...*rubs head*
He ran over to Dran. She died with a look of fear on her face. He held her close to him. Why would she do such a thing? Sacrificing her life to save him? In her Egyptian mode, she looked feirce and unsettled. Her eyes were opened wide. He closed them. He wiped the tear from her face. But it was replaced by his own. His tears clicked on the ground.He felt cold all over. No wonder. He looked at the floor. Her hand was touching it. The floor was rippling like water. It was sending out ice all over the place. Bakura stood over him.
Bakura: Aww. What a shame i couldn't kill he myself.
Ryou: Well, you'll be killed soon enough.
Bakura: What?
Joey: GOTCHA! *jumps on his back*
Tristan: Hold him Joey! *Runs over and holds his hands behind his back*
Bakura: Monkeys.
Ryou: *Still hovering above Dran*
Yugi: Bakura, i can't beleive you would do something like this!
Bakura: Hey, she's the one jumped in front of the damn cannon!
Mai: Shut up.*ties him up*
Joey&Tristan: SCORE! *hi-five each other but miss and fall down*
Yugi: *looking at Ryou* *put his hand on his shoulder* Ryou, she's gone.
Ryou: But she always comes back...why should this time be any different? *has tears dripping from his eyes*
Mai: Well, there's nothing we can do now. *pulls him off of her*
Yugi: *Follows them out* And Bakura, We'll always remember this.* snarls*
Bakura:*unties himself* Oh i'm shaking in my shoes.*glares after him*
-----------------------------
Drans Room
---------------------------
Ryou: Why can't we bring her back?
Yami: She sacrificed herself for you Ryou.
Dran: *has been laid on bed*
Yami: We;ll send her to her grandmother in Egypt. She'll see to it she gets properly buried.
Mai: Ew, you mean they're going to take out her brain? *gags*
Tea: Mai, shut up.
Joey: Hey! Tea is mad!
Tristan: Lets make it worse! *laughs dumbly*
Ryou:*glares*
Joey&Tristan: *runaway*
Yugi: Well, there's the bus thats going to take her.
Ryou: *touches Drans hand one last time before she's loaded on the bus*
Tea: *listens to it drive away*
Ryou: *Gets up and walks away*
------------------
outside
---------------
Yugi: Ryou! There was nothing you could do!
Ryou: I just stood there and i did nothing to help her. I'm such a shmoe.
Yugi: That's not a word and there was nothing you could do. She'll be buried in Egypt.She'll get to see the god's even.
Ryou: Not when she wasn't ready to. She didn't deserve to die! She never did anything to anyone, and she still died...
Tea: Yugi's right. be happy. She's fianally free. And now she'll be happy forever.
Mai: You're lucky it wasn't you up there.
Ryou: *looks towards the sun* I don't think i'll ever get over it...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Egypt High noon, close to sun set
--------------------------------------------------------
Bakura: *sitting on top of the Sphinx* Stupid child...
Dran: *glares at him*
Bakura: She's alive..?
-----------------------------------------------------------
Drans house
-----------------------------
Ryou: *Having flashbacks about all the time he has spent with Dran*
Yugi: You alright?
Tea: Spacing out again i see. *smiles*
Ryou: She isn't dead...
The center of the room glowed deeply and a faded image of Dran. She held an outstretched hand towards Ryou, but when he reached for it, he found it was only a hollogram of her. Was she trying to reach him somehow? He got up from his chair and took off outside, leving behind a very puzzled looking group of friends. Dran was running like the wind, passing through Battle City (Wow). Ryou's heart hurt from the wind pressure but he wouldn't stop running. Drans eyes burned, but she couldn't blink. The suns rays were pentrating the clouds above, leaving shing beams of light coming down. Ryou eyes brightened and Drans heart flew alongside the wind when they saw each other. Dran lept into his arms and began to cry tears of joy. Ryou was crying too. He hugged her and she hugged him back. The rose glowed and became warm next to her heart. They were finally together again.
They will never be seperated. They can overcome anything together. When they are together, all that is majestic bows to their hearts joy. The sun shone brightly and Dran's features returned to normal. Someone put their hand on Drans shoulder. She turned around and couldn't beleive it. It was her mother and father! Ryou looked at Drans expression. She looked happy, yet scared. Dran slowly approached them. They took her up in her arms, and she once again felt like the innocent child she once was. Monica smiled and stroked Drans hair. Drea smiled brightly at her. She was taken back to the memories of her life. Like when it all started. But when did it start? Did she really know?
That didn't matter now. Because what came next broke her heart. Her parents, who felt so real, disappeared as suddenly as they had appeared. Drans happy expression was shattered on her face. Tears filled her eyes, but she did not cry. Ryou looked at her once more, at the tears silently falling down her face. Yugi came running up to them, not beleiving Dran was alive. A shadow flew over the sun, and all was dark. Dran got up and readied herself to fight. But somehow, she didn't want to fight.
Ryou saw the shadow out stretch a pair of gigantic wings. A dragon roar echoed through the empty streets. Dran didn't move. The wind force of the roar blew through the air and into her face, but she stood strait, and she didn't even blink. Not even a flinch. Golden eyes opened from atop the shadows highest point. Dran began walking towards the massive shape. Yugi stared at Ryou.
Yugi: Whats going on?
Ryou: I'm totally clueless...
Tea: *comes running up with Mai and Joey*
Joey: Hey Yug, we saw that thing all the way from the park!
Mai: We can't stay here Yugi, it's too dangerous!
Yugi: Okay. *begins to run away with Mai and Joey, but stops* Ryou, lets go!
Ryou: I can't leave without Dran!
Joey: Quit bein stubborn!
Dran: *stops when she right beneath the massive object* ...
Mai: What is she doing?!
Dran: *puts hands up* Show yourself...
The whole city was illuminated by a golden sunvurst of light that abrupted from her palms. The shadows were torn from the object, leaving a very familiar golden dragon standing tall.
Dran: Hello, Winged Dragon of Ra.
Yugi: *runs over to Dran* Dran! we gotta leave! *tries to pick her up but gets shocked*
Dran: *glaring near it's shoulder*
Ryou: *looks up* Isn't that...?
Malik: *calls down from high up* Well, it's so nice to see you all again.
Dran:*teleports to the other shoulder* Nice to see you too.
Malik: You haven't changed a bit have you? Ever since i first saw you. And also since the day i was forced to raise you.
Ryou: *stops Yugi from interfering* Yugi, this is her past....not ours..
Yugi: But..Ryou...
Dran: *looks towards Ryou, then back at Malik* It was nice to see you again as well.
Malik: But, we shouldn't dwell on the subject.*lifts her in the air with the Rod* Games never end till one player loses.
Ryou:*turns and walks the other way*
Dran:*turns into a snakeand slithers down to Ryou at light speed* Ryou, i'll be there in a moment. I need to take care of buisnessss.....
Mai: *grabs Yugi and Joey and heads inside*
Ryou: You just came back Dran. I don't want to lose you again.
Dran: I have to go this time Ryou. It isn't optional.
Ryou: *takes Drans hand* Then i can make it optional, please, just stay here Dran. Don't leave.
Malik: I'm waiting Dran. What will it be?
Dran: *lets go of his hands and gets next to Malik* Ryou....i'll come back...someday....
Bakura: *Invisible to all except Ryou* Well, looks like your protection is gone. And now, now you're all mine.
Ryou: *looks at him and then towards the spot where Dran left* She's gone again...
Bakura: Revival through loves tears doesn't last that long you know.
Ryou: LEAVE ME ALONE! *catches up with the others*
Bakura: *sits on a bench and crosses his legs* TskTsk Little Ryou. You should know better than to run from me.
----------------------------------------------------
Dran: *flash back*-
-------------------------------------------------------
Egypt, high noon, Drans boarding the plane (not shown last time)
Dran: *sits on the counter next to a fellow archeoligist* Hello!
???: *looks up* Hello child. Do i know you form somewhere perhaps?
Dran: Nope.
???: Then, why are you here?
Dran: I dunno.*shows him a keychain attached to some kind of round artifact with an eye on it* Looky!
???: Where did you get that young miss?
Dran: Found it. *wipes something off of it* Why ya wanna know?
???: Just curious. That looks like this one. Only smaller. *holds up a ring with a triangle in the middle*
Dran: *feels a starnge force coming out of it*
???: It's actually quite heavy. Would you like to hold it?
Dran: *hops off the counter and backs away* No...thats okay....*runs off*
Merchant: That girl is a pharaoh in the making. I don't think she could ever be one though. Alright, back to buisness sir.
------------------------------
End of flashback
------------------------------
Dran: *sitting next to Malik watching him enslave the minds of more and more people*
Malik: When i get my hands on the last god cards, nothing will stop me!
Dran: Will you give it a rest? Eesh. You are so persistent. Why can't you just go and find them yourself?
Malik: *sweatdrop* I can do as i wish. You on the other hand, cannot.
Dran: *Stands up* I am 10,000 years old! I lived and thrived before Egypt did! I can do what ever i want on my own time!
Rare Hunter: *walks in* Sir, is everything okay in here? I heard Shout....
Poor, poor hunter. Not even a chance to finsih his sentence. Dran jumped on him, growling and snarling, and begin to tear away at his body. It was several minutes before Malik pulled dran off of him, her finger nails dripping blood. She was still snarling and began to fidget and thrash in his arms. The rare hunter stumbled to his feet, shaking, ready to collapse. Malik put a bandage on it and sent him out the door.
Malik: Fool. Next time, you will think twice before barging in! *sits down after using chain energy to keep Dran from moving*
Dran: *snarling*

Yugi: Where could she have gone?
Joey: I'm stumped.
Tristan: You haven't even thought of anything.
Joey: I know.
Ryou: All she said before she disappeared was that she was in the sha.
Yugi: What could she have meant?
*Yami's Soul room*
Yami: Hmm...
Yugi: What do you think Yami?
Yami: Sha...Sha....shadow realm!
Yugi: Thats it! Thanks Yami!
Yami: Anytime.

Mai: I hate that place.
Joey: Yeah, we all know.
Ryou: How did she get there though?
Yugi: All i know is thats where she is.
Mai: Well, how are we going to get there?
Tristan: Not like we can teleport or something.
Ryou: Maybe, that book of Dran's has something in it that can get us there.
Joey: Well, lets go then!
---------------------------------------------
Drans house (Hmm...twelvish.)
---------------------------------------------
Ryou: *Flipping through the giant books pages* I can't find anything...no wait! Here's something.
Yugi: It says, shadow realm transport spell.
Joey: Now thats a horse of a different color!
Tristan: There's no horses here.
Yugi: Into the shadows we take our courage and our hearts, ready to fight off all offences...
The room lit up with black light as they were swept into the very pages of the book and transported to the shadow realm. Yugi looked around for a moment. Ryou wasn't there with them, but Yugi figured he was safe. H elead the group into the darkness and they heard Drans singing. Yugi follwed it into a large, arena like room. Ryou was sitting in the middle, tied up. He was glaring in every direction. Yugi rushed over to him and untied him.
Yugi: You okay?
Ryou: Fine.
Mai: Did you find Dran?
Ryou: Well, thats the bad thing...
Joey: Is she okay?
The doors around the area come down and lock
Ryou: I'm not sure, but i don't think we'll be for long.
Bakura: *walks out of the last gate as it locks behind him* So, you're looking for Dran?
Mai: What'd you do with her this time?
Bakura: Nothing. I haven't seen her.
Yugi: You're lying.
Bakura: I saw her run by here, but she was running pretty fast.
Joey: Gee...From you maybe?
Yugi: Just give her up already. We know you have her here somewhere.
Bakura: I can't get away with anything now a days can i?
Dran: *Walks up behind Bakura*
Bakura: You know, fear is a good motive.
Mai: Dran, you okay?
Dran: Fine...
Yugi: *whispers to Ryou* Why isn't she coming over here?
Ryou: She's too scared
Bakura: Yes indeed. Very scared at that. *strokes her hair*
Dran: *doesn't respond*
Ryou: You're twisted.
Bakura: Better to be twisted than good.
Yugi: Ryou, are we going to save her?
Mai: Yugi, we can't. He has her in his grasp. He can do anything to her.
Joey: Eh, you let her go you! *tries to punch him in the face*
Dran: *Shoves him backwards*
Joey: *Lands at Tristans feet*
Tristan: Looks like he has himself a body gaurd.
Ryou: I'm tired of this. Come on Dran. *picks her up*
Dran: *Bites him and snarls*
Bakura: She knows better.
Yugi: *Yawns* I feel tired...
Mai: So do i.
Joey&Tristan: *Are already asleep*
Bakura: Now it's just us three. You know your friends aren't very capable of protecting one another.
Dran: *Sneers* Haha.
Ryou: Dran, why are you being like this?
Bakura: You think she'd be nice and protect her captor.
Dran: *sits down* Bored..*sighs*
Ryou: Come home Dran...*sits on the ground*
Yugi: *Snoring*
Dran: Zipper pull.
Yugi: *has a zipper over his mouth*
Bakura: Come Dran. *Begins to walk the other way* Oh and by the way...*makes a cage fall on top of Ryou*
Dran: *Follows but stops* Ryou...
Ryou: *staring at the ground*
Dran: *runs towards the cage*
Bakura: Get back here!
Dran: *slashes the cage into peices* Ryou, come on!
Ryou: Alright! thats more like it!
Yugi: Ryou? Did you get her?
Mai: lets get out of here!
Dran: *staring at Bakura running towards them* One last thing *jumps out of Ryou arms and towards Bakura*
Bakura: *stops running* Wha..?
Dran: Bye bye. *Uses a shockwave to make him rocket backwards*
Joey: SCORE
Tristan: Shut up.
Bakura Staggered to his feet and glared at Dran. A millenium eye symbol glowed on her forehead. She looked around. It wasn't any one in that room. She put her hand on top of the symbol, but it was too hot. It stung something nasty, but she managed to re locate evey one. The doors were still locked. She turned around quickly trying to find a way to escape. There was a small hole above the gate. Just big enough for a rat. Her brain was going on full throttle thinking. Bakura was getting closer. Then it hit her. she turned into a small black rat and scurried through the wall. Ryou looked after her wondering what on earth she was doing out side. Yugi pulled every one away from the wall. Perfect timing. A giant dinosaur like creature was standing in the ruins. Dran was sitting on it.
Dran: Need a ride?
Yugi: Why are you riding a dinosaur? *sweatdrop*
Dran: Ey, this is the shadow realm.
Ryou: *shrugs*
Everyone hopped onto it's back and they ran out the door. Bakura didn't seem to follow he didn't need to. He had Ryou. Ryou looked at the ring as it glowed softly. Dran wasn't paying attention. She was shifting it into full gear and the wind (didn't know there was wind in the shadow realm V_VU) was blowing everywhere. The symbol on her forehead disappeared. Dran looked back at Ryou but...there was a problem. Bakura tackled Dran off the two story high dinosaur's back. She landed with a crack and the dinosaur skidded to a hault. it made a screech sound, like a raptor or something. Bakura was smiling. How could she have forgotten? She rolled her eyes and threw him off of her. Well, when people say strength lies in rage, they were right.
And at that moment, Bakura was pretty mad. Dran yet again came up with a plan. She seemed to go through the floor and disappeared into the shadows. (Cever) Bakura looked around cautiously. Dran jumped out from the wall at him. Her eyes had grown smaller than a pens point. He flew backwards and landed on his feet. (after a blow like that he should be DEAD) Dran turned around and looked at him. She smiled. Blood streaked down his back and dripped onto the floor.
Dran returned to her normal childish state. She ran. Ryou watched from Bakura's soul room. Yugi and the others followed her. He yelled to her, but she couldn't hear him. Dran looked over her shoulders. The rose turned to the roseblade and she sliced through the shadows and they were back at her house.
Dran: Although i just saved us all, what just happened?
Joey: Eh, i don't know.
Tristan: Well, that was scary. *passes out*
Yugi: I rode a dinosaur in the shadow realm..wait till i tell this to Grandpa!
Mai: *yawns* Well, i'm taking these two home. *grabs Joey and Tristan*
Tea: Bye Mai!
Dran: TEA?! WHERE'D YOU COME FROM?!
(Oh the randomness!)
Tea: I just walked in the door. ^____^
Dran: *Sighs* Oh well. Just skittish. *looks around*
Tea: Did Ryou go with you guys?
Dran: *sits up instantly* Ryou! Where is he?
Yugi: Dran...he's still in the shadow realm...
Dran: I have to go back in! *begins to pull out the rose balde*
Tea: *puts her hand on Drans shoulder* If you have justcame back from the shadow realm, you should wait till you go back in.
Dran: But Ryou might be in trouble!
Yugi: I'm sure he'll be fine. He can manage.
Dran: *Looks out at the now appearing moon* I hope so...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day(Don't you people ever get tired of the time? 5:00 a.m.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dran was the first to wake up that morning. It was still early and the sky was grey. She toom some time to wask her white and gold dress and headed out the door after it was dry. No one was out except some stray cats and some early birds. She peeked around every corner that she went by. The streets of Battle City were currently foggy. She could barely see. Someone grabbed her around the throat. She began to fall asleep. She looked up and someones purple eyes stared down at her. They looked familiar, but she was too tired to make out their face. She passed out.
Yugi had a bad dream and awoke several minutes after it happened. He had a dream Dran was kidnapped by someone. He chuckled softly. Mai had come home previously. Dran wasn't there. He stared around the room. Drans parents were staring at him from their painted places. Dran was painted while looking at the floor. He decided Dran was probally out walking. His elbow hit something hard. He lifted up a large book. Scrap book it said on the cover. He opened it. It was pretty old. one photo particualrily interested him. She was standing next to someone. Who..was that? Malik?! What was he doing in her photo album? She was smiling and so was he. A smile? On his face? Creepy. He turned the page. The next photo was strange. Her father was standing in front of the Sphinx. She was sitting on top of his shoulders, giving the peace sign. The sun didn't even blaze on the picture. Weird pictures. The next one was her standing in front of..Shadi?
Yugi: This is one creepy album...
Yami: Is something wrong Yugi?
Mai: *stretches*
Yugi: Look at this Yami. *hands him the picture of her and Malik*
Yami: Why would she be with him?
Mai: Hey, Yugi, is everything alright? Hey, isn't that Malik? *points to photo*
Yugi: Thats what concerns me. Look at this picture album. It's full of strange photo's.
She began flipping through the pages. She came across a picture of her holding something. She wasn't holding it really. It just, looked like it had attached itself to her. She was tugging on her moms shirt. It looked like some kind of armband. The next one was the same, only her mother was yelling at her and she had another band on. The next one showed her with dark lines and gold finger nails. Obviously she's a troubled child.
Tea: Well, judging by these pictures, she obviously has a bad past. *shows him*
--------------------------------------------
Somewhere same time
-------------------------------------
(Flashback)
Dran: *Six years old* Mommy, do you have any water?
Monica: *Hands her some bottled water* Here you go sweetie.
Manager: Hey, Moni, wats the deal with bringin' your daughter on the dig?
Monica: She wanted to come. She lives here. She should know these things.
Dran: *A gold band materalizes on her wrist* Mommy, what is this?
Monica: *looks* There's nothing there.
Dran: *watches more gold bands appear up her arms and around her ankles* What are these things?
Manager: Kid, there's nothing there. Now shoo.
Dran: *gets dark lines under her eyes* Moooomy...
Monica: Stop being a pain Dran.
Dran: *Goes walking in the city*
Shadi: *Walks up behind Dran* You are Dran correct?
Dran: *turns around* Who are you?
Shadi: That is of no importance to you. This is for you. Never let it go. *Hands her a small gold rose and disappears*
Dran: *Has black and gold streaks running through her hair* I gotta show mommy! Runs to the dig site* Mr. Manager.
Manager: What is it you little brat?
Dran: Where's my mommy?
Manager: She's on the plane with your father getting ready to leave.
Dran: Okays! *runs to the plane* Mommy!
Monica: Yes dear?
Dran: Look what someone gave me! *holds up the small golden rose*
Drea: Well, that thing looks interesting. Dran, pack up dear. We're getting ready for take off in about an hour.
Dran: Kay! *runs through the streets again*
She ran past many people. It seemed another archeoligist was there too. he was examing a ring with many points coming from it. She ran past all the booths and got her things from the dig site. She uncovered something in the sand. It looked like a necklace. It had a bug pushing a sun into the sky. It had lots of jewels on it. She picked it up and put everything back on the plane. She sat in the bedroom and watched as she left her home behind. She placed her hand on the window. She could've sworn she saw a giant dragon looming above the city. She just needed to sleep. She sat on her bed and took her hair from the horned caps it was in. (Yes, her hair is VERY spikey) It fell to her sides and shook loosely. It was that night that everything went wrong.
(End Flashback)
Dran: Hmm? *still a little drowsy*
Malik: *looking over her* Sleep well?
Dran: BEAST! *tries to rip his face off*
Malik: A vain attempt. *sits in a chair nearby*
Dran: Where are we?
Malik: Only the place where you once help Seto Kaiba Hostage. *Fiddling with a god card*
Dran: *catches a glimpse of the image*
For a second, she could have sworn she saw a giant dragon looming over the city.
Dran: That! What is it?
Malik: Interested are we? This is a god card. And it's the Winged Dragon of Ra. Nosey. *grins*
Dran: Grr...*pokes the floor*
The floor rippled like water. She pulled her hand away quickly. Malik glanced her way.
Malik: I see you find the floor amusing.
Dran: *Teleports out of the chamber**reappears at her house*
--------------------------------------------------------------
Drans house. You already knew that. 7 am.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Yugi: *Still looking at the photo album with Tea and Mai*
Dran: Where is Ryou? Is he back yet?
Tea: Dran, i didn't hear you come in.
Mai: Ryou hasn't come back yet.
Dran: *curses in Egyptian* Well, i'm getting tired of waiting.*uses the blade to open the shadow realm* Later. *jumps through*
Yugi: There she goes.
Tea: And she claims she doesn't love him.
Mai: As if. *Smiles*
-----------------------------------
Shadow realm
----------------------------
Dran: *Sits down on the ground and whispers into the rose blade* Find Ryou.
The blade flickered and an image of Ryou came through. He was on a dueling feild. He must have gotten himself into a duel with Bakura somehow she thought to herself. He was losing and something sinister lurked behind Bakura. It looked like some cannon. WHile it was still playing she got up and began running. She could hear someone's life points go down. She jumped through another glob of shadow and came out next to the arena. Ryou looked down at her as his life points were struck to zero. His feet were locked in place. The cannon that was behind bakura looked in front of Ryou. it began to power up. Drans eyes materialized dark lines beneath them. She gabbed the head off the cannon and squeezed. She used all her strength.
The head of the cannon came off. But it was still powering up. It was now ready to fire. She climbed in front of Ryou. The blast released from the cartridge. Dran jumped in front of it. The show hit home. It zapped her right above the heart. Pain etched it's way through her veins. She gritted her teeth. Ryou looked on helplessly. The color drained from her face as hr heart was coming to a stop. Her eyes were turning colors. But they stopped at gold. Her eyes widened.
******************************************************************************
Dran, we will always love you, no matter what happens. You can be
the worls most awful person, and we would still love you. If we ever died,
then you need to be strong and courageous. Dont let that courage die.
If you die, then it dies. Keep strong!
******************************************************************************
She shifted slightly and her fingernails were extending. She tried to fight it. She just wanted to die. All she wanted was to die. To leave and never return. Her teeth were growing as well. The golden bands from her flashback were coming into sight. The lines beneath her eyes were darker now. Keep strong. Don't ever let that courage die. She opened her eyes wider. They now resembled cats eyes, with those slits in them. She tightened her body as bst as she could. She forced her hands in front of her. The blast was stopped at her hands. She progressed forwards, pushing the beam back into the source. This could kill her.but she didn't want Ryou to die.She glared up at Bakura, who was laughing like a drunk man in a corny comedy club. (Very, very hard.) She shoved it into the mouth of the cannon and it overloaded. Bakura ducked down and so did Ryou. She closed her eyes and a tear ran down her face.
The machine ignited. It exploded. Bakura and Ryou were safe, but Dran was badly hurt. She held her hand to her side, trying to keep her blood from spilling to the floor.. Her fore head was beaded with sweat and her throat was on fire. She swallowed her saliva. It was just as hot as her throat. She glanced back towards Ryou and smiled. Her eyes went blank. She fell onto the floor and the rose clinged tauntingly on the ground. Her celtic rose necklace still hung from her neck. She was dead. Ryou peeked over the top of the arena and saw Dran lying on the ground.
Bakura: She dies too much. *sniggers*
Ryou: SHUT UP! *hits him with a rock*
Bakura:*Is hit on the head by the rock* You've got guts...ow...*rubs head*
He ran over to Dran. She died with a look of fear on her face. He held her close to him. Why would she do such a thing? Sacrificing her life to save him? In her Egyptian mode, she looked feirce and unsettled. Her eyes were opened wide. He closed them. He wiped the tear from her face. But it was replaced by his own. His tears clicked on the ground.He felt cold all over. No wonder. He looked at the floor. Her hand was touching it. The floor was rippling like water. It was sending out ice all over the place. Bakura stood over him.
Bakura: Aww. What a shame i couldn't kill he myself.
Ryou: Well, you'll be killed soon enough.
Bakura: What?
Joey: GOTCHA! *jumps on his back*
Tristan: Hold him Joey! *Runs over and holds his hands behind his back*
Bakura: Monkeys.
Ryou: *Still hovering above Dran*
Yugi: Bakura, i can't beleive you would do something like this!
Bakura: Hey, she's the one jumped in front of the damn cannon!
Mai: Shut up.*ties him up*
Joey&Tristan: SCORE! *hi-five each other but miss and fall down*
Yugi: *looking at Ryou* *put his hand on his shoulder* Ryou, she's gone.
Ryou: But she always comes back...why should this time be any different? *has tears dripping from his eyes*
Mai: Well, there's nothing we can do now. *pulls him off of her*
Yugi: *Follows them out* And Bakura, We'll always remember this.* snarls*
Bakura:*unties himself* Oh i'm shaking in my shoes.*glares after him*
-----------------------------
Drans Room
---------------------------
Ryou: Why can't we bring her back?
Yami: She sacrificed herself for you Ryou.
Dran: *has been laid on bed*
Yami: We;ll send her to her grandmother in Egypt. She'll see to it she gets properly buried.
Mai: Ew, you mean they're going to take out her brain? *gags*
Tea: Mai, shut up.
Joey: Hey! Tea is mad!
Tristan: Lets make it worse! *laughs dumbly*
Ryou:*glares*
Joey&Tristan: *runaway*
Yugi: Well, there's the bus thats going to take her.
Ryou: *touches Drans hand one last time before she's loaded on the bus*
Tea: *listens to it drive away*
Ryou: *Gets up and walks away*
------------------
outside
---------------
Yugi: Ryou! There was nothing you could do!
Ryou: I just stood there and i did nothing to help her. I'm such a shmoe.
Yugi: That's not a word and there was nothing you could do. She'll be buried in Egypt.She'll get to see the god's even.
Ryou: Not when she wasn't ready to. She didn't deserve to die! She never did anything to anyone, and she still died...
Tea: Yugi's right. be happy. She's fianally free. And now she'll be happy forever.
Mai: You're lucky it wasn't you up there.
Ryou: *looks towards the sun* I don't think i'll ever get over it...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Egypt High noon, close to sun set
--------------------------------------------------------
Bakura: *sitting on top of the Sphinx* Stupid child...
Dran: *glares at him*
Bakura: She's alive..?
-----------------------------------------------------------
Drans house
-----------------------------
Ryou: *Having flashbacks about all the time he has spent with Dran*
Yugi: You alright?
Tea: Spacing out again i see. *smiles*
Ryou: She isn't dead...
The center of the room glowed deeply and a faded image of Dran. She held an outstretched hand towards Ryou, but when he reached for it, he found it was only a hollogram of her. Was she trying to reach him somehow? He got up from his chair and took off outside, leving behind a very puzzled looking group of friends. Dran was running like the wind, passing through Battle City (Wow). Ryou's heart hurt from the wind pressure but he wouldn't stop running. Drans eyes burned, but she couldn't blink. The suns rays were pentrating the clouds above, leaving shing beams of light coming down. Ryou eyes brightened and Drans heart flew alongside the wind when they saw each other. Dran lept into his arms and began to cry tears of joy. Ryou was crying too. He hugged her and she hugged him back. The rose glowed and became warm next to her heart. They were finally together again.
They will never be seperated. They can overcome anything together. When they are together, all that is majestic bows to their hearts joy. The sun shone brightly and Dran's features returned to normal. Someone put their hand on Drans shoulder. She turned around and couldn't beleive it. It was her mother and father! Ryou looked at Drans expression. She looked happy, yet scared. Dran slowly approached them. They took her up in her arms, and she once again felt like the innocent child she once was. Monica smiled and stroked Drans hair. Drea smiled brightly at her. She was taken back to the memories of her life. Like when it all started. But when did it start? Did she really know?
That didn't matter now. Because what came next broke her heart. Her parents, who felt so real, disappeared as suddenly as they had appeared. Drans happy expression was shattered on her face. Tears filled her eyes, but she did not cry. Ryou looked at her once more, at the tears silently falling down her face. Yugi came running up to them, not beleiving Dran was alive. A shadow flew over the sun, and all was dark. Dran got up and readied herself to fight. But somehow, she didn't want to fight.
Ryou saw the shadow out stretch a pair of gigantic wings. A dragon roar echoed through the empty streets. Dran didn't move. The wind force of the roar blew through the air and into her face, but she stood strait, and she didn't even blink. Not even a flinch. Golden eyes opened from atop the shadows highest point. Dran began walking towards the massive shape. Yugi stared at Ryou.
Yugi: Whats going on?
Ryou: I'm totally clueless...
Tea: *comes running up with Mai and Joey*
Joey: Hey Yug, we saw that thing all the way from the park!
Mai: We can't stay here Yugi, it's too dangerous!
Yugi: Okay. *begins to run away with Mai and Joey, but stops* Ryou, lets go!
Ryou: I can't leave without Dran!
Joey: Quit bein stubborn!
Dran: *stops when she right beneath the massive object* ...
Mai: What is she doing?!
Dran: *puts hands up* Show yourself...
The whole city was illuminated by a golden sunvurst of light that abrupted from her palms. The shadows were torn from the object, leaving a very familiar golden dragon standing tall.
Dran: Hello, Winged Dragon of Ra.
Yugi: *runs over to Dran* Dran! we gotta leave! *tries to pick her up but gets shocked*
Dran: *glaring near it's shoulder*
Ryou: *looks up* Isn't that...?
Malik: *calls down from high up* Well, it's so nice to see you all again.
Dran:*teleports to the other shoulder* Nice to see you too.
Malik: You haven't changed a bit have you? Ever since i first saw you. And also since the day i was forced to raise you.
Ryou: *stops Yugi from interfering* Yugi, this is her past....not ours..
Yugi: But..Ryou...
Dran: *looks towards Ryou, then back at Malik* It was nice to see you again as well.
Malik: But, we shouldn't dwell on the subject.*lifts her in the air with the Rod* Games never end till one player loses.
Ryou:*turns and walks the other way*
Dran:*turns into a snakeand slithers down to Ryou at light speed* Ryou, i'll be there in a moment. I need to take care of buisnessss.....
Mai: *grabs Yugi and Joey and heads inside*
Ryou: You just came back Dran. I don't want to lose you again.
Dran: I have to go this time Ryou. It isn't optional.
Ryou: *takes Drans hand* Then i can make it optional, please, just stay here Dran. Don't leave.
Malik: I'm waiting Dran. What will it be?
Dran: *lets go of his hands and gets next to Malik* Ryou....i'll come back...someday....
Bakura: *Invisible to all except Ryou* Well, looks like your protection is gone. And now, now you're all mine.
Ryou: *looks at him and then towards the spot where Dran left* She's gone again...
Bakura: Revival through loves tears doesn't last that long you know.
Ryou: LEAVE ME ALONE! *catches up with the others*
Bakura: *sits on a bench and crosses his legs* TskTsk Little Ryou. You should know better than to run from me.
----------------------------------------------------
Dran: *flash back*-
-------------------------------------------------------
Egypt, high noon, Drans boarding the plane (not shown last time)
Dran: *sits on the counter next to a fellow archeoligist* Hello!
???: *looks up* Hello child. Do i know you form somewhere perhaps?
Dran: Nope.
???: Then, why are you here?
Dran: I dunno.*shows him a keychain attached to some kind of round artifact with an eye on it* Looky!
???: Where did you get that young miss?
Dran: Found it. *wipes something off of it* Why ya wanna know?
???: Just curious. That looks like this one. Only smaller. *holds up a ring with a triangle in the middle*
Dran: *feels a starnge force coming out of it*
???: It's actually quite heavy. Would you like to hold it?
Dran: *hops off the counter and backs away* No...thats okay....*runs off*
Merchant: That girl is a pharaoh in the making. I don't think she could ever be one though. Alright, back to buisness sir.
------------------------------
End of flashback
------------------------------
Dran: *sitting next to Malik watching him enslave the minds of more and more people*
Malik: When i get my hands on the last god cards, nothing will stop me!
Dran: Will you give it a rest? Eesh. You are so persistent. Why can't you just go and find them yourself?
Malik: *sweatdrop* I can do as i wish. You on the other hand, cannot.
Dran: *Stands up* I am 10,000 years old! I lived and thrived before Egypt did! I can do what ever i want on my own time!
Rare Hunter: *walks in* Sir, is everything okay in here? I heard Shout....
Poor, poor hunter. Not even a chance to finsih his sentence. Dran jumped on him, growling and snarling, and begin to tear away at his body. It was several minutes before Malik pulled dran off of him, her finger nails dripping blood. She was still snarling and began to fidget and thrash in his arms. The rare hunter stumbled to his feet, shaking, ready to collapse. Malik put a bandage on it and sent him out the door.
Malik: Fool. Next time, you will think twice before barging in! *sits down after using chain energy to keep Dran from moving*
Dran: *snarling*
