An Old Acquaintance

Marik and Kyana walked over to the park. It was not a long walk because Kyana's house was located very near the park. As they neared, they saw that the park was quite full.
"My it sure is full today."
"Yea, it usually is empty. I wonder what today is."
"Maybe school's out today or something. Well, let's just mind our own business."
"Good idea. Where do you want to go?"
"I think the lake sounds nice. It's very peaceful there and there are lots of benches too."

"Sounds good to me."
Kyana led them over near the lake. She found a empty bench and sat down.
"It's very nice out here today."
"It certainly is."
Kyana watched the lake.
Marik tilted his head and sighed. The air was so clean but it was so hot outside. He brushed his hair from his face with a finger. Something caught his eye. White hair!? B.Bakura??? Here!? Marik rubbed his eyes. He looked again. Sure enough.it was Bakura.
"Wh.what?"
"Did you say something?"
"Over there..Bakura." stuttered Marik.
"You mean that white haired person? Is he a friend?"
"Yes.no.I don't know. At least we used to be."
"Do you want to say something to him?"
"I kinda want to know why he's here."
"Okay. Let's go over." Kyana took Marik's hand and led him over to where Bakura was sitting. Marik sweatdropped. "Um.Hi Bakura!"
"Oh hello!" This isn't Bakura.this is Ryou! Marik thought silently to himself.
"What brings you here to Egypt?"
"Oh hehe" Ryou scratched his head. "Nothing really. I want to explore this place. It certainly is interesting."
"Yes.and there are still many kinds of.valuable things.know what I'm saying?"
Marik's eyes widened and he gulped.Bakura had taken over.
"Um yes.what are you doing at the park Bakura?"
"I could ask you the same thing."
"Oh.I just came here with my friend here. Bakura, this is Kyana.Kyana, this is Bakura. So what are you up to?"
"Nothing much. Ryou wanted to see this place.hehe I have other interests." Bakura eyed Kyana up and down.
Marik was quite taken aback by this. "I guess we'll be going now?"
"Nonsense. I'd like to get to know this friend of yours a little better Marik. What do you say to lunch?"
"Sounds good to me. Where shall we go?"
"There's still a lot of food at my house. Let's go there. Marik, Bakura, come with me." Kyana walked gracefully back to here house. "Come on in!"
Bakura looked around in awe. "Nice house."
"Thanks."
Kyana took Bakura's hand and took him to the kitchen. Marik sweatdropped again. She's holding his hand!? Why!? Ugh.what does it matter? He too walked over into the kitchen.
"What do you want for lunch? I have bread from this morning, fruits and I can cook if needed."
"Oh don't bother. Fruit and bread will be fine."
"Okay. I'll be back in a moment."
Marik sweatdropped once again (A/N: At the rate of this.there won't be any sweatdrops left for anyone! ^_^) He would have to talk.
"So.Bakura.Have you found anything interesting?"
"Yes.Many.I am a tombrobber my friend."
"Any luck at the pyramids of Giza? There are many undiscovered tombs I'm betting."
"Yes.you're probably right. So.Marik how long have you been back?"
"I lost track. A few months I suppose. What about you? I haven't heard from you since you were..ah."
"Banished to the Shadow Realm? Yes.indeed. But I have my ways of getting back. Ahhhh..It's good to be back in Egypt."
"It certainly is. Say, Bakura, how were you able to get back to Ryou?"
"Oh.you know when you were possessing Bandit Keith? Well, you had him break the puzzle. I manipulated one of them so I would be able to wander the maze. It turns out that I was deposited there after I "lost" my soul. It took a long time to wander that place.there were many traps. Far harder than the ones in ancient times in the pharaoh's pyramid. "
"Interesting. You managed to get out without the pharaoh noticing?"
"I think so."
Kyana returned with the bread and another bowl of fruits. (A/N: What is it with me and fruits?)
"Enjoy. Let's eat."
"So Kyana.where are your parents?"
At this question, Kyana's smile turned into half a scowl and Marik started choking. Bakura raised an eyebrow.
"Unless, you don't want to tell me."
*Gasp* "Sorry, choked on some grapes." *cough* Marik went to the kitchen to get a glass of water.
"Oh no, it's fine. It's just that my parents died in a car crash when I was younger."
"Oh.how old are you now?"
"Fourteen. You?"
"I'm sixteen. How long have you been living alone?"
"About five years now."
"I'm sorry about your parents."
He.he's sorry!?!? What in the name of Ra is this? He's sorry??? Never.Bakura could never be sorry. Marik thought to himself.
"Tell me Kyana, why is Marik here? Is he a friend of yours? Is he your boyfriend?"
Marik and Kyana blushed. "Um actually, Bakura, he's a good friend and since he really doesn't have anywhere to go, he's living here with me. It does get quite lonely."
Bakura's eye twitched. All of them finished their lunch silently. Kyana cleaned up the table and came back,
"So, you guys, what do you want to do for the rest of the day?"
"Oh I dunno. Do you want to visit the pyramids?"
"Sure would! Would you Marik?"
"Of course!"
"Ok then let's go! It's not very far away so let's walk. I'll get some water bottles."
They all set off towards the pyramids.
