Chapter two, hey did you all know I wrote this before I posted chapter twelve of Kinta? Yeah, I worked ahead by a ton.

Disclaimer-I still don't' own, and even if I did do you think I'd tell you?

Okay, flashback-y dream things in this, I'm moving the story fast, so it's all starting now. Flashbacks are noted, and if you haven't read the song fic 'Bother' you are not allowed to read this, for once you readers need to know what's happening before the characters (and cause it will all make more sense.). So go read 'Bother' if you haven't. If you have read it, enjoy the chapter!

Also, times are specified in a couple places, yeah, reasons, acknowledge and move on because I explain next chappie.

That night Kinta stirred in her sleep the dream she was having.

~*~*~

"Bakura, just go, I don't need you pity."

"Not giving you pity, just some advice."       

"Well, don't."

"Can't help it, whether you like it or not I do give a damn about if you live or die. I care."             

~*~

Bakura put his arms around her and held her; he felt her tears finally come as they wetted his bare chest. He held her, the bitter and violent priestess crying in his arms

~*~

She sank into a deep kiss and let everything go.

Her and Bakura…

~*~

"Forget I ever existed." Kinta wiped his memory clean of her. " And I'll forget you."

~*~*~

Kinta shot up from her bed, what the hell! Her dream, no it had been to real… She tried to think, and she was hit with a flood of memories, the ones she'd erased.

She sank into her bed, barely able to move, she remembered it all, what the hell had she done?!

And why the hell did she suddenly remember?

_*_*_

At 3:30 am Bakura suddenly stopped, things flooded his mind, he sank to the floor, he'd been walking to his room, he'd just gotten home. Now he sat on the living room floor in a silence, everything was coming back to him. Unable to speak, unable to move, Bakura sat in a semi-shock.

_*_*_

Seto looked at his clock, it was 4:07, he groaned, he had to get up and go to work in about an hour and a half. But he'd been woken up by a weird dream, he had been in Egypt, and he was talking to..Kinta? That was weird, he couldn't remember a lot but they'd been talking about Yami and then she did something with the Band. Kaiba tried to remember, not like he had time to sleep anyway. He knew Kinta had been alive in Egypt but he hadn't known her, well he didn't think he had, he only knew about so much. But something else of what he had seen was odd. He had been talking like he liked Yami..

"So crazy dream, yeah, I ever had respect towards Yami, don't think so. I tried to overthrow him with the shadow games." Kaiba rolled over and tried to get some sleep before he would have to get up in an hour.

_*_*_

"Kinta! I'm going to scho-" Kilandra saw Kinta, sitting curled in silence eyes wide, and she stopped;  "what the hell happened to you?"

"This isn't good Kilandra, the memories, they came back.."

"What memories?"

"Mine. The spell undid itself."

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"Long story.. Long long story, but Kil? Bakura not an ally anymore avoid him."

"Will you try to make some sense, look I have to get out of here, must keep up the perfect act, explain when you can speak sensibly." Kilandra stormed out and left Kinta sitting as she went to Domino high.

_*That afternoon*_

"Kinta? Okay can you speak straight now? What the hell is up?"

"The magic of the band is undoing itself the spells it did, the memories it changed – they're back, same as before.."

"Point? The only person whose memory you've changed is Anthy, everyone else is dead now."

"No. I did it to myself and Bakura…"

"Bakura? But you didn't-"

"I did, I erased it from my mind. And his."

"Why?"

"I d-didn't want to hurt him." Kinta said with some difficulty.

"Where you two involved? Because you know-"

"Yes I know.  The pledge. And we weren't exactly involved, I. well...he.. Oh, … it's complicated. "

"Just don't let it interfere. If you break the pledge than the consequences will be dire. You swore. And I don't let people off."

" I know.." she whispered, "but Bakura will remember now, I can't face him, you neither! I'm not sure what he'll do but…. it won't be good. We have to avoid him."

"What was that bad that he'd hate you for?"

"I-I… I can't explain it…just, stay away from him. What happened today did you see him?"

"Ryou said he was sick."

"Then he definitely remembers, damn. I'm screwed."

"Obviously, well I'm leaving, you can ramble all you want but I'm going to do something worthwhile. You're changing Kinta; you know you aren't allowed to do that. You swore." And Kilandra left again.

Kinta sat motionless. In the past she'd taken advantage of Bakura and played with his mind to make him forget, then she wiped both their memories clean of each other before sealing herself in the band. She thought he'd die, but he didn't and now the past was haunting her, because along with Bakura came memories of her Mother.

_*_

Night came and Kilandra still hadn't returned, Kinta walked around a bit, what was Bakura thinking? Where was he? He knew and then what? He knew he could find her though Kilandra so why didn't he? She paced in the pitch black of the apartment before settling on the floor in a corner. Still thinking.

_*_*_

What were these images? Kaiba struggled to keep his mind on his work. The dream had come back, more too, during the day. It didn't fit with what he knew about the past, in the dream he.. it was weird. It seemed like Kinta had used the Sennen band to change his memories. But that was absurd. He always hated Yami, and this dream showed him helping and trusting him,. it must be overwork, his mind was making up things. That was it. No other reason. If there was another reason his structured world just might start falling apart.

 _*_*_

Kilandra walked out of the apartment smugly, Malik was in, now she was set, no one to oppose. It'd taken time but Malik was ready to work with them, mainly because of the promise of power and bringing down Yami. But now everything was perfect. The traps would be set and the knowledge to stop them was unreachable. Nothing stood in the way of her goal. She debated going back to the apartment where Kinta was. She decided against.

/she was pissing me off. I know where I can go, I'll be gone a day or two, and when I come back I can sort this out./  Kilandra walked thought the dark night intent on avoiding her yami gone soft.

_*_*_

bum bum bum. I love messing with things. It's so fun. And no Kinta's pledge isn't some stupid chastity thing or anything like that. It's very problematic though.

Kinta-like hell.

Kilandra-exactly like hell.

Kinta-I didn't mean literally.

Kil-it's true though. Oh well, review!!!!
