Book Dragon: "Sorry, a lot has been going on and I've been thinking."

TombRobber: "That's surprising."

Bakura: *rolls eyes* "Better start the fic…"

Chapter 14:

                Bakura flapped quickly, flying in figure eights and looped-loops, enjoying himself fully. The pitch-black world continuously spins in front of his wide brown eyes. Small lights of white and yellow lighting in the darkness spinning as he flapped up and down. He laughed aloud feeling so light and carefree; it was wonderful.  Ryelle watched his enthusiasm, which had first been fear until he got use to it in the first 10 minutes. He zoomed around the air space randomly laughing and giggling, very oblivious to her presence. She flew somewhat close to him; to make sure he did not fall and break something or worse die. She shook her head as an unpleasant image of Bakura swooping down and breaking his neck. To further keep the thought out of her head she opened her mouth.

"You know, you know this neighborhood better than I do." Bakura stopped in the middle of a loop and hung there a moment, at the remembrance of her presence. She stopped herself, both wings flapping in unison, Bakura blushing at her. She looked at him for a confused moment but laughed a little at his reaction, she saw a small smile appear on his face as she spoke calmly.

"Do you know the way back? I can't remember the way we flew…" After a moment of his head swing from left to right and a few minutes of quick thinking, he replied in that English accent of his.

"I believe it's that way…" He said as he pointed to his right.  She nodded in agreement and started to fly in the direction of his pointing, Bakura flew after her, no longer flying in loops or shapes, just right next to her.  She did not look at him, trying hard not to make eye contact, for his presence was making her nervous. Bakura started to talk his voice smooth and somewhat quiet.

"You know, I always wondered what it would be like to fly…it's actually more wonderful than I thought it had been…" Ryelle guessed he hated the how quiet it was, something Ryelle was now more than familiar with. After a few moments of hesitation she decided to speak, she herself, now sick of the consent silence.

"I think I kind of knew what it was like to fly… I always had dreams about it." Bakura looked at her, a surprised glint in his eyes.

"Then again my dreams never made sense…" She smiled slightly and continued about her dreams, some made no sense and where quite funny in Bakura's mind, for he laughed a little and talked of some of his own dreams. She laughed at some of the bizarre ones like being chased by different types of food, and doing weird things like jumping off roofs and falling up ward instead of down. She told him about one she had about smoke alarms chasing her out of her house as a child. They both cackled loudly about how weird that one turned out. They flew like that for about ten minutes until she saw the one familiar light ahead of her in a lone window at the top of a small curved roof, Yugi's house. Her laughter was reduced to a small smile; with out a word she pointed to the building. Bakura's eyes followed her pale finger to the house; a grin appeared on his face. Minutes of silent flight took place until both sets of feet landed softly on the green roof. Bakura watched her leafy emerald wings flap down to her shoulders as his bright white ones hung. Ryelle started down off the roof onto the windowsill but then Bakura's white wings caught her eye; she blushed quickly at his continuos staring and spoke.

"Sorry…" She closed her eyes from where she stood, haft way on and off the roof, and started thinking quickly. The same thing going through her head repeatedly in the blackness of her mind. Bakura felt a bright light warm his shoulders as something popped loudly behind him, white feathers fell around him as the presence of his wings disappeared, and to his surprise, he felt no pain. Ryelle's eyes opened at the sound and she smiled at him as she slowly slipped into the window, being careful not to hit her wings on the sides. Bakura followed into the room, more nimbly than the first time, and they both stood in silence. The silence filled both sets of ears, everything around completely and utterly quiet, so quiet Ryelle had haft a mind to break it. She opened her mouth and almost spoke but a loud shouting killed the silence and in the next second she found herself haft-way down the narrow stairs with Bakura at her back. She continued her crazy pace down the stairs, jumping the last three, and stopped in the middle of the kitchen. The whole entire floor was in an up roar, Joey and Tristin where yelling in the direction of the other room, Shadi stood in the middle of the room baffled, Tea standing next to them very quiet, and Yami and Yugi where no where to be seen. Shadi looked at the both brown eyes staring into the kitchen, he looked clam but still very perplexed. It was then shouting sank in.

"GET OUT OF HERE NOW! NO BODY INVITED YOU!" 

"I'm not here because anyone invited me; I've come to get her." A smooth voice only Corey could posse said.

"And besides no one else here could get her besides me, she's mine you mutt." Joey turned red this rage and tried to tackle the jerk but Tristin held his arms, trying hard to keep him researched. Unfortunately, no one could contain Ryelle. She walked out into the room slowly, fists clenched and red from the pressure. Corey smiled glad to see her.

"You've done a good job hiding from me. But face it I'm resistible…" She glared at him coldly and spoke in a low tone.

"You hubris fool…"

"Ah you're speaking to me now… I knew you would." He said smoothly.

"Get your ass out of this house…now." He waved his finger at her.

"You have such a tongue; I'll have to teach you a lesson later, your mine." He said, his eyes looked somewhere behind her, and he spoke smugly.

"I can't believe you ran to the two wimps, they couldn't help you. Yugi is just a superstitious fool and Bakura is the weakest person I've ever seen. Why, he is ssoo weak he couldn't help himself. The twit…" Joey frought stronger than before in pure rage, Tristin was now being dragged little by little. Unfortunately, something had snapped in Ryelle's mind. Her eyes flashed dangerously, her fists now white. Her hair frizzed out a little, her body so hot she began to sweat. She gritted her teeth so hard they felt sharp in her mouth as a little blood trickled from her mouth. She was shaking from the rage so much she forgot about her wings, they spread to full length in a second, knocking things over and breaking them loudly. She tried to look as fierce as her anger boiling through her veins. Her hair ruffled, her mouth opened wide baring pointed teeth, and she found her voice.

"You get the HELL out of this house NOW or I swear I will hunt you down, you pathetic fool. You come anywhere NEAR these people and again I SWEAR I will KILL you in the most horrible way you can imagine. You have two seconds to get your LAME ASS out of here…NOW!"  She pointed a finger at the door and he sprinted out the door as fast as his legs would go, he looked pathetic. The door slammed shut and Ryelle grabbed at her wings and forcefully held them to her shoulders. She turned in a fuming mood and saw everyone looking at her. She saw Yugi and Yami had joined them through the corner of her eye, and Ryelle could tell they had shown up in time for her rage. Yugi had the whitest face she had ever seen him where and Yami's eyes were wide. Shadi looked a bit jumpy, Joey and Tristin just stood in complete surprise, Tea stood in horror, and Bakura looked terrified.  She glanced at them all and walked out the room in a normal pace, trying not to make eye contact with anyone, especially Yami, and walked up to the second floor still clutching her wings. After a moment of thinking, she spotted the bathroom and locked herself in, a small white walled room with blue tiles and creamy counter top with all sorts of different containers. It was then she saw her reflection in the open shelf mirror. Her eyes had an evil look had never seen before, her teeth were jagged like knives, her fingers like deadly talons, and she had dark blood trickling down the corner of her mouth. She jumped at her reflection, now realizing what everyone looked that way. She frowned quickly at herself and her eyes began to water. She looked like such a monster; it was frightening even to her. As one tear rolled down her face, her eyes slowly changed back to the eyes that looked at her in the mirror the few days before. It was that moment she felt to the floor, hands on the floor, weeping. She stayed like that for what seemed to be hours, crying until she couldn't cry anymore and she was back to normal, except the wings, they hung on her shoulders comfortingly as she slightly swung back and forth. Her body was now every sweaty and she was tired from her tear shedding; she got up slowly feeling like she could throw up. Very red and worn out brown eyes looked at her now; she looked at herself and realized she must not smell too good. Therefore, she filled the bathtub that was in there, removed her smelling clothes, and got in. She relaxed a little and got her emotions all sorted out, after what seemed like and hour she rapped a towel around herself and started to search for a hairbrush. When she finally found one some one slammed the door open. Her head swung in the direction of the door, Joey, Tristin, and Yugi stood there.

"We've come to see if your ok-"

"GET OUT!" She chucked the nearest thing she could find and chucked it at the door. Joey slammed the door shut as quickly as possible, and the container of hair gel hit the wooden door loudly. Her heard Yugi's voice from the other side of the door.

"Sorry… are you okay?" Ryelle, still somewhat stunned, had her eyes closed and shook her head talking.

"Yes, yes, I'm okay… you wouldn't happen to have any spare clothes would you?" There was a pause and then Yugi's voice came back

"Yes, I'll bring you some…" Ryelle sighed in relief.

"Thank you so much…" She heard footsteps leading away from the door, she relaxed a bit and started to brush her hair forcefully until all the knots where sorted out, her hair very smooth. Then another knock was heard and she opened the door a little and took the clothes given to her.

"Thanks"

"Your welcome." At that, she heard him walk away quickly until she heard no more steps. She glanced down at the clothes in her slightly damp hands. Blue jeans, white socks, and a blank tank top clasped in pale hands. She didn't think a second thought and put them on quickly, the shirt was a bit small and the pants where tight around her hips but the socks were fine. As long as the socks were comfortable she could live with her clothes, all though she still looked somewhat ridiculous in too short pants and the tank top that stop at her stomach, plus, to make things worse, the back ripped with her wings.  She shrugged and went down the stairs quickly, jumping the last four stairs, and landing lightly on her feet. She looked at the group sitting at the table, Joey and Tristin arguing over what should be eaten for dinner, Yugi and Tea just watching the fight, Bakura staring at the floor zoning off, and Shadi and Yami talking about something way over her head. Bakura noticed her presence and looked up at her; she looked right at him with her hair dripping onto the floor loudly. She smiled sheepishly and looked at Yugi, who realized she had come down too.

"Your clothes are a bit small… and… I ripped you shirt in the back, I swear I'll get you a new one." Yugi just nodded quickly and looked at Joey for support. She noticed Bakura staring at her in a dazed way from the corner of her eye. She looked at him fully, blinked at him in some confusion, and was about to ask him if he was okay when a loud rumbling sound interrupted her. Tea looked at Joey and Tristin somewhat annoyed.

"You guys are ALWAYS hungry!"

"I swear it wasn't me!" Joey looked are her in protest.

"It definitely wasn't me either!" Tea started at them with haft-closed eyes.

"Then who?" Ryelle looked at them astonished and sheepishly smiling.

"It was me…"

Book Dragon: "So ends another chappie!"

Bakura: "Yes and the story is coming to an end…"
