Well, here I go, off to my updating schemes again.

Just so you people know, I DO have this story planned out, and who will die, because THREE people die in this fic, and you already know who one of them is going to be!^^

See disclaimers in previous chapters.

****** Chapter 7 - Who Are You?

******
Yugi ran with all his might, knowing if he stopped, it may cost him his life. Teachers screeched at the top of their lungs for him to stop, but he shut his eyes and kept running. Bad mistake. He flew back once again as he hit someone, hard. As he stood up from the collision and grabbed his bags, he noticed that who he had bumped into was Miho, who appeared to have bumped into Tristan, who appeared to have bumped into Joey, who appeared to have bumped into Ryou, who appeared to have bumped into a girl he had never seen before. "Oh my god, I am so sorry!" he said as a sweat-drop formed at the back of his head.

Miho stood up and flicked a strand of her waist-length purple hair out of her face, "Next time watch where you're going!!" she said ignorantly, picking up all the books she had dropped.

"Hey! That's my buddy you're talking to lady!" Joey said, flinging his bag onto his left shoulder, "I suggest you find somewhere else to complain, cause we aint gonna take it, right Yug?"

Miho ignored the blonde and walked down the hallway. Yugi looked over at Tristan, who had helped Ryou up off the ground, "Thank you," Ryou replied picking up the only book he had simply dropped. He looked behind him and noticed the girl who had broken his fall was gone. "Did anyone else notice a girl around here?"

"I did...." Yugi said, looking curiously at Ryou. "Did you know her?"

"No. Did anyone see where she went? I think I gave her a bad fright, or maybe a bruise or two that I'd like to apologize for." He said, looking up and down the halls for the girl he had bumped into previously. As he looked down the hallway Yugi came from, he noticed big, bulky T-Bone come his way. "BAKURA!" he yelled, causing the young boy to flinch.

"Y-yes T-Bone?" Ryou said, standing as still as he could. "I have the yen...."

As Ryou reached into his pocket and pulled out three coins, he was lifted off the ground, "HEY!" Joey yelled as he moved closer to the miniature fight (more like miniature beating) about to happen.

"Back away Wheeler or your 'friend' here is going to get more hurt then ever before....."

"What did I do?!" Ryou asked handing the money to T-Bone, who took it and put it in his pocket.

"You, alley-way, escape route, sounds familiar, right?" T-Bone asked, clenching his fists in front of Ryou's face, "How the hell did you get out?"

"Why do you want to know?" Ryou said, aware of the violence that could be coming for him that very moment.

T-Bone obviously didn't anyone to irritate him that say, because he wouldn't hear one word out of Ryou unless it was an answer to his question. "Because there is NO way that YOU found a way OUT of MY ALLEY, unless SOMEONE just HAPPENED to TELL YOU the WAY OUT, so I suggest the YOU tell ME, BEFORE I HURT you BADLY. GET THE PICTURE?"

"A girl told me T-Bone, why it matters so much to you I'll never know....." but T-Bone didn't want to answer the question, all that was on his mind right then was to ask them.

"What did she look like?" T-Bone said setting Ryou down.

"I don't know, I can't remember. She had like; Navy Blue hair that looked like it was parted to different sides, why?"

"You got lucky Bakura, but if I catch you sneaking into my alley ONE MORE TIME, you are going to get hurt, and if it's not you," T- Bone said, stopping to glance at Yugi, "It'll be one of your friends...."

And with that, he turned on his heal and walked away from the frightened silver-haired boy. Tristan, Joey and Yugi looked at him, not understanding what that scene was supposed to mean, "Jesus," Ryou said, not noticing his three friend's stares, "I get attacked by two dogs and everyone makes a big fuss, AGAINST me...."
