"He's going to be really mad when he comes out of there." Ryou said once
they left. "If he does, you mean." Aisling replied. "I swear, he spends
more time in there than Mai does." Aisling nodded. "Crap. I just realized
something." Bluefire said."What?" Ryou and Aisling asked in unison.
"Malik's not the one that we have to worry about." "What are you saying?"
Ryou and Aisling asked in unison. "Malik and Bakura have a sort of a
symbotic relationship. They both get
something good out of their company. Malik gets protection from hithat dick Marik and Bakura gets
a friend and a partner in crime." Bluefire explained. "What are you getting at?" Aisling asked. "If Malik tells Bakura what we've done, then we're dead." "Oh crap. We're screwed. Maybe we can stay at a hotel for a while until he's calmed down?" Ryou shook his snowy head. "Won't work, he'll come looking for us." "What are we going to do if Malik says something then?" "Don't worry about it, Aisling. We'll think of something. Maybe we can keep him from saying anything about it at all." Bluefire spoke up. "How?" "Two words: Millenium Rod." Aisling scratched her chin, before nodding. "I see where this is going!" "Excellent. So, since he's still in there, one of us can go in and get
it." Bluefire said. The trio thought for a moment, before Aisling spoke up. "I'll do it. I know where he keeps it." "Are you sure?" Ryou asked. Aisling nodded. "Yeah. Don't worry. I'll only be a couple minutes. Cover me, ok?" Ryou thought for a while, before he nodded somewhat reluctantly. "All right, just be careful, love." "Aren't I always?" "No." "Don't worry, we've got your back." Bluefire assured her. "Hurry and get it." Aisling nodded. "Right!" She took off towards Malik's room. "She's braver than I think I've given her credit for." Bluefire said. "That's not going to do us much good if she gets herself killed. Come on." Ryou replied. "Right." Bluefire nodded. "Oh, crap." "What?" Ryou asked. "I hear Bakura coming this way. If he finds out what we've done, we're
fucked. Aisling had better get that before he does find out. If she don't,
well, my car's parked a house away." "Will you two take me with you?" "Of course." Bluefire replied, ruffling his soft, thick, white mane playfully. "I would never, ever leave you with that psycho if I could help it."
Aisling searched Malik's room, humming the 'Mission Impossible' theme song. "I know it's here somewhere. Aha! There!" Aisling grabbed the Rod, closed the drawer again, tucked it into the pouch at her side with her deck and took off out the door. "Hey! I got it!" Aisling yelled, showing her friends. "Oh crap, it's Bakura!" "What are you yelling about, woman?" He asked irritably. "Nothing, nothing at all." "What are you up to?" "Me? Up to something? No, I'm not up to anything..." She noticed Bluefire behind him, gesturing for her to leave. "Umm, I'd love to stay and chat, Baku-chan, but I can't. I'll...ummm, see you later. BYE!" She took off running. "Geez, that was close. A little too close for my liking." "Did you get the Rod?" Bluefire asked. Aisling nodded. "Yeah. It's in my pouch." She looked around, before she asked "Where's Ryou?" Ryou came up behind Bluefire. "Right here." Aisling nodded. "Okay, we've got to act fast. I just ran into Bakura, I think he was heading for the bathroom." "Damn it!" Bluefire exclaimed. "He must have heard Malik yelling." "Bluefire, you sounded like Lian Xing." Aisling told her friend. "Never mind that! We have to get ready to run."
Bakura looked around, before he found Malik on the floor of the shower. "What's all the yelling about...?" He noticed the blonde looking reddish. "Malik, what happened to you?" "Gee, what do you think?" Malik asked sarcastically. "The psycho duo and your Aibou were just in here, and flushed the toilet several times while I had the shower going." Malik replied. Bakura started to curse in Ancient Egyptian. "Umm, do you guys hear that?" Aisling asked. "You mean that cursing that sounds like Baku-chan?" Bluefire replied. Aisling nodded. "Hai."
"Yup. Come on, we'd better go." "Right."
Bluefire turned to Ryou. "Come on, Ryou. Yamyam's on the warpath again."
"Crap! To the car, NOW!" They took off running, dodging a couple people on the way. Just as they were almost out the door, Seto stopped them.
"What's with you three?" He asked.
"Don't ask, I'll explain in about a week, now please let us by." Aisling replied.
"I'm not going to ask." "Smart move." Bluefire told him. "Now, can you please move? We have to go." Seto nodded. "All right, I guess." He moved out of the way. "Thanks." Bluefire said as they ran.
