Disclaimer: No I do not own Yugioh, and this applies to all chapters.

My night had been entertaining thus far. It is amazing to say that Ryou does not blame me for our home getting turned into toast.

Naturally, Ryou calls over to Yugi's house. He says we were invited to stay out there. yugi is having Joey come and get us at the 7eleven.

My hikari is all stressed out and it is not making me any calmer. I am feeding off his emotions right now. And he is getting worse.

I am so disgruntled that I am jumping at every moving shadow. When I saw the headlights, I nearly Joey to the Shadow Realm.

"Hey Ryou," Joey greets Ryou as he climbs into the front of the truck. Ryou said nothing and watched me jump into the back of the truck. Ryou said nothing due to stress.

Joey looks at me," Doubt you are in much of a conversating mood right now, Bakura."

I growl at him in warning.

"Just as your normal self." Joey said and I glare at him and growl more threateningly.

Ryou spoke up," Joey, he is worse than usual. I recommend that you leave him the hell alone until I am capable of calming him down. I don't think I could stop him from sending you away right now."

"Can't you get him to return to the ring?" Joey asked, concerned.

Ryou shook his head," That may make it worse. Bakura, if he can't see what is going on and my emotions are affecting him, then it will make him worse. It will be safer just to leave him alone."

I listen as they turn on the cd player, album Heathen, by David Bowie.

"Faverote of yours isn't it Ryou?" Joey asks.

Ryou answered," It may help soothe Bakura. Bowie is one of the few to get him to relax to the point of sending everything to the Shadow Realm."

Not much time passes as Joey gets us to the Motou's place. Hey, countryside is always better than the city. There are more hiding places.

"It had just occured to me Ryou." Joey states, "Bakura and Yami may get into more fights. Aren't all of the yami's territorial? Witch one will be the dominate spirit?"

They get out of the truck and head to the house where Triston and Tea also are. They greet Ryou warmly witch breaks his melancoly.

Yugi, just finished doing something, greets Ryou.

"Where is Bakura?" Triston asks.

Ryou gestured to the truck,"you probably won't see him until I can get him calmed down. But in order to do that I need to be calm."

"Why?" Tea asks.

"He can read my emotions like an open book. I also affect his."

Triston asks, "Why not he try to socialize for once in his natural life?"

Ryou says,"He is in the truck bed if you wanna ask him."

Triston looks towards me. Since he is not advancing, he must have decided against it. Wise move, deciding to leave a disgruntled, insane yami alone. You might live a few more years.

"Wise move," Joey comments,"He snarled at me for talking to him."

"Yikes!" Triston says,"He may have hurt me! Isn't that one of those signs of the "If you are not my hikari then you better leave my alone" types of insanity."

Ryou followed up," Yes, the need to be left alone until I can calm him down. He will attack if you do not leave him alone."

"Sure?" Joey asks.

Ryou smiles,"Yeah. Uh, Yugi, This reminds me. Our Yami's do not exactly like eachother, What do you think we should do about them?"

"I don't know if it is fortunate or not," Yugi began,"But Pharaoh had to go on a trip that lasts three days. He left an hour before you called. I havent told him what's going on or we would have a bad series of fights if Bakura is as bad tempered as I heard he is right now."

Tea looks nervous as she hears these words coming from Yugi.

"I don't think we can stop them for a few days. Territory fights and all of that. Yami wont really like Bakura anywhere near his." Ryou says.

"Well," Tea says, as she senses that these two have alot to talk about. Stuff that she didn't know too much about because she is no Hakaril,"Triston, Joey, We probably ought to get home."

"Is Bakura still in the same place?"Joey asks. He is not really wanting to mess with me.

I start to move into a tree. There is one above me.

"No" Ryou commented. "He is in the tree above it. You should be safe for the moment if you don't acknowlege the fact he is there."

Triston, Joey, and Tea all go elsewhere.

"Are you serious that Yami does not know what happened?"Ryou asks as I move closer to them.

I think I can jump onto the roof.

Sucessful jump. Scared the lights out of the hakari's.

"Yami's, they can be a pain, especially mine."

"I think I know what to do about the situation about the Yami's." Yugi mentioned.

"What?" Ryou asked, curiously.

"With Yami gone for a few days, Bakura has a chance to explore and find faverote areas. When Yami comes back then it might be less to fight about."

I sit down on something lumpy. I grimace as I pull it out and into the outside light. A Dark Magician Figurine? From the looks of it, it had been here a while. I throw it down and almost hit Ryou.

"Hey!" Ryou yells at me.

Yugi picks up the thing,"This should be proof. Bakura goes up there more than Yami. This had gotten thrown up there by some kids that visited one time. Yami wouldn't go up there, nor would he let me. Someting about it being too dangerous."

"Bakura won't just take that little territory. My house was his territory. He probably will try to take some of Yami's territory. Alot of fighting. Are you sure you want us here?"

Yugi smiles," Of course! It is not just because the others are too scared of Bakura. I have thought for a long time Bakura would be better off in the country. He will probably explore and find more places. I fully expect him to take over some territory. If we are equals Ryou, then there will be no dominate spirit."

"Try telling them that."

"I probably won't need to. Yami is still to much of a Pharaoh to back down from Bakura. Bakura's pride as a Tombraider wont allow him to cave to Yami very much the same way.
