DISCLAIMER: same thing of my other chapters. I don't own this stuff.

CH 3 New Friends, new places, new Pokemon

"I don't think he should know quite, yet." Said the spirit of the bracelet. "Not until it gets too outta hand.

"What do you mean? That was out of hand!!" DJ yelled to his Yami. "And, who are you? What did you do last night in that duel? I don't remember anything!"

"I'm an ancient spirit locked in the Millennium Bracelet."

"You mean, this?" DJ held up his arm showing the wrist band.

"What other bracelets do you where?"

"Shut up."

"Well, what happened last night was none of your concern, and it should stay that way."

DJ's eyes grew ten times their normal size. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN "NONE OF MY CONCERN?" YOU FREAKEN TOOK OVER MY BODY AND DUELED THAT FREAK WITH MY DECK, AND USE THE POWER OF MY BRACELET!!!!!! I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT A SECOND - SOUL THING INSIDE ME!!!!!! AND TELL ME HOW YOU USED THE BRACELET TO DO - WHATEVER YOU DID TO BAKURA! IS HE DEAD? ARE YOU EVIL TOO? HOW CAN I TRUST YOU?

"I don't see what your problem is."

DJ whipped out a frying pan that might as well be frying, because he charged toward the transparent image of his counterpart and slashed right through it. DJ fell flat on his face, but got up and continued to do this out of rage. DJ finally tired and fell on top of Bakura's unconscious body. It looked like he painted his face red. And all he could do was "UGH".

(thinking) "If you were smart, you wouldn't trust me! Ha! You're correct, I am evil, and you are but a pawn in my evil game! I've already made the fool of the Millennium Ring my victim by taking his Millennium Eye! Not betray the Pharaoh? Ha! I know much more than the Pharaoh can ever imagine exists! I shall one day use him and his powers to become Pharaoh myself!"

"DJ? What are we doing laying here?" the spirit of the bracelet heard in a British accent.

"NO, they're already back? Erase their minds, my bracelet!"

"I don't know, I guess we just fell asleep." DJ said dazed. "Why am I holding a frying pan?"

"Odd." Bakura said in a casual sort of tone.

"Whoa! We really over slept! It's 10 AM!"

"We had better get going, then." The still tired Bakura said dreamily.

The two got up slowly and walked straight past the Millennium Ring, which shone in the sun. A hustling Rattata crawled up to it and gnawed at it, which made an awful racket.

"What's that noise?" Bakura stopped and walked back to the Ring.

"AHH!" I can't believe I almost forgot it!

"What is it, Bakura?"

"It's my Millennium Ring! I can't loose it, it was a gift from my father!"

"Huh? WAIT, Bakura! Stop! That ring - it's evil!"

"Nonsense! I've had this forever, where did you get the idea that it's evil?" At that second, three or so dark type Pokemon stopped what they were doing and came to observe the Ring.

"What a silly Murkrow! Get off my arm! What?!" A Sneasel was purring and rubbing it's head on Bakura's leg.

"Whoa, that's scary. Anyway, there's another spirit thing in there! It took over your body and was talking evil and stuff, or was it a dream???????"

Bakura could just imagine what DJ felt like, right now. ?_?;

"I'm gonna catch this Sneasel!"

"Why?"

"It's one of my favorites! Mudkip go! Use Water Gun!" The mud fish Pokemon shot a stream of water at the Sneasel, but on impact, the water froze.

"Huh? What happened?" Bakura said, looking oddly at the frozen pillar of water.

"Bakura! Sneasel is Ice type, too. Not just dark!"

"Oh, no!" The Sneasel slashed the pillar of ice and blew it into an Icy Wind attack.

"Mudkip! Cover the wind before it reaches you! Mudshot!" it was too late. The wind had knocked out Mudkip. "NO! Go Larvitar! The green pokemon came out and stomped on the ground, ready to battle the Sneasel. "Use Rock Slide!" The small but powerful Pokemon summoned rocks above the Sneasel and commanded them to fall. The Sneasel was pinned. "Pokeball! Go!" The Sneasel was caught easily. "Yes! I caught a Sneasel! It's been my favorite Pokemon forever! YAY!!!"

"Bakura, where'd you get that Larvitar?"

"I caught it on my family's last trip to Jhoto, but if you want one sooner than that, I've heard there's a few in Rusturf tunnel near Rustboro city."

"Cool. I can't wait."

"Where are we going, now, DJ?"

"Away from all these dark Pokemon. In there."

"Yes! Another city! What's it called?"

"I don't now, Bakura, let's see the guidebook."

"It says here that it's Petalburg City." Explained Bakura.

"Cool! It's the first city with a gym to earn a badge in!"

"And just how do you know that?" Bakura asked, looking skeptical at the puny - sized city. He was turning his head every which way, looking for a gym, but all he could see was two houses, the Pokemon Center, the route out of the village, and a small pond.

"Well, you're gonna have to look around the Pokemon center!"

"Oh!" Bakura said, breathing hard from DJ's loud yell. "Wow!" Bakura said, looking at another pond, a couple more homes, a Pokemon Market, and one of the largest buildings that Bakura had ever seen. "That's the -"

"Petalburg City Gym!" DJ finished. "Let's head inside."

"DJ, are you sure you're ready for a Gym match? You've only had a couple battles. I'm sure! Norman does sound tough, but I've come to Petalburg City lots of times and learned almost everything there is to know about him, like he's got Normal type Pokemon.

"Two things, DJ. Maybe you should wait until your Torchic evolves and learns some fighting type moves, and, NORMAN has NORMAL type Pokemon? That's too weird."

"What do you mean? Almost all of the Gym Leaders in Hoenn have names that go along with their Pokemon's type."

"I still think that's weird." Bakura said bluntly. DJ and Bakura continued torwards the Pokemon Gym despite Bakura's weird feelings about the leader's name.

"Here we are! The entrance to my first gym match!" DJ said with great excitement. They entered with caution; it was dark inside.

"Hello? Hello?" Bakura's voice echoed through the small room they had entered.

"LEAVE, NOW!"

"AAAHHH!!!" Bakura and DJ yelled in unison while jumping back.

"I'm Norman, da Gym leada. Sorry fer my rude orda, but every traina dat comes here is da same way. All a' you new kids dat left Littleroot town a couple a days ago are all comin' in not knowin' da rules a da gym."

"Whosie da whatie?"

"Cannit, Bakura!" DJ whispered loudly.

"What are the rules?"

"I should really put up a sign, or sompin', oh, sorry, but you must have at least 4 oda badges before challengin' me."

"But why?" asked Bakura with a dazed expression.

"Cause if ya don't have enough experience, my Pokemon 'll crush ya's." "Oookay" Bakura was practically yawning.

"So to get my first badge, I have to wait 'till - until I get ta - to Rustboro?"

"Yup, ya gotta face Roxanne fer yer first badge."

"Ugh! Now we have to go through the Petalburg woods!" complained Bakura.

"We would've had to pass through there, anyway, Bakura!"

"Yeah, but now we have to do it sooner!"

"Stop whining! The sooner we get in, the sooner we get out!"

"Good point."

"Okay, let's head in -"

"Sneasel, go!"

"Bakura, what are you doing?"

"Just some, protection."

"You're scarred of little worms and immobile cocoons?"

"Hehe, yeah." Bakura chuckled, embarrassed of his fear of insects. They entered the forest, on lookers looking at Bakura shaking in his shoes.

"Bakura, if your scarred of bug type Pokemon, how do you expect to cope with the darkness of ghost type Pokemon?"

"Bugs are just - slimy and creepy and crawly !!!"

"You know, Bakura, there is a ghost and bug type Pokemon, it's called a Shedinja. Maybe we'll see one."

"Hmm, that might be interesting, but it's still a bug type Pokemon."

"NINJA MASTER! FURY CUTTER ON WHAT EVER IS BEHIND THAT TREE!" "UUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!" Bakura fell back on the ground. He was shaking, and his shirt tore as if a ghost was slowly slicing it.

"Bakura! What happened?!?!" DJ asked with astonishment.

"W-W-W-W-"

"WHAT?"

"W-Worms a-and immobile c-cocoons?"

"What are you talking about?"

"T-that!" DJ looked to where Bakura pointed slowly.

"Whoa, it's a Scyther! Cool, let's see, good shape, good posture, perfect health, awesome level, this isn't a wild one.." DJ came to a not so obvious conclusion. "Now I can't catch it."

"Right you can't, I already did!" a girl's voice echoed through the trees from where the Scyther came from. She soon emerged from them to show herself. She wore a green tunic, had green hair, and was wearing go-go boots. Her blue eyes matched the bungie holding her hair in a pony tail. On her back was a quiver full of arrows, and in her pocket was the bow to fire with. DJ also noticed the small backpack hanging from her shoulder, which, of course, was also green.

"Hi, I'm Alicia from Fortree City, and you are?"

"Oh, I'm DJ, and this - this is Bakura."

"Nice to meet ya, sorry about my Scyther, we're training here. I like to take my Pokemon to train where they came from, so they can use their natural habitat as a edge."

Bakura was still whimpering.

"What's wrong with him?"

"Your Scyther -"

"Ninjamaster" corrected Alicia.

"Oh, anyways, it attacked Bakura, and he's a bit scared of bug type Pokemon."

"That would explain his shirt!"

That's the end of CH 3!!!!!! Now in this Chapter I'll refer you to another fan fictioner, SailorSun8. She has a ton of good stories and is in love with Bakura. She's not so fond of Ryou, (un-yami Bakura), though; she has a story of him cross dressing to go out on a date with Marik (some of you call him MaLik, I can't stand that!) any way, that's SailorSun8. C ya! I know this was a really long Chapter, it took up 7 pages on Microsoft word...
