Tomb Robber
by SSCeles
Disclaimer:...Well lets see here...I don't own Yugioh. I do own my character, Tetra.
So this is how it works:
--tells setting--
//Bakura's thoughts or him thought-speaking to Ryou//
/Ryou thought-speaking to Bakura/
\\Yami/Pharaoh's thoughts or thought-speaking to Yugi\\
\Normal Yugi's thoughts\
'a character thinking'
IMPORTANT: I'm currently rewriting and correcting parts of this fic. I thought I should mention here that there will be no out of body Yami's running around. It's just them controlling their "normal" counterparts. ALSO the original character Tetra is who YOU'D be if you're a fangirl reading this. Think of it that way. It was either an OC or Tea, so… you get the picture… This whole story sort of would never happen in the actual storyline. It is AU 'cause Battle City was CANCLED. Okie! All set!
**If you want a little background as to what's going on, go read my story Tetra.

--Yugi's Yami and crew corners Bakura after he finds out about Bakura joining sides with Malik. 'Battle City' has been cancled.--
"Tomb robber! How dare you join up with Malik?!" said Yugi's Yami, who had happened to be a pharaoh in past life.
"Listen, it was all Malik's idea!" said Bakura in protest.
"He was a tomb robber?" said Tetra in surprise.
Glancing at Tetra, Yami Bakura immediately found the curious look in her face.
//This could be my ticket out of pharaoh's grasp//
"Yup. In the good old days I could slip past all of little pharaoh's guards, and not even get caught."
"Really?"
The pharaoh cut Tetra off- "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't banish you to the shadow realm here and now!"
Tetra grabbed a book out of a shelf and prepared for the speech Yami Yugi was going to give to Bakura. He picked that skill up from Tea. She flipped through until she found the section she wanted in the old book.
'Curses of Egyptian Tombs.'
She read down some, barely paying attention to the lecture Yugi's Yami was giving to Bakura.
'Diseases were painted onto walls tot...' She turned a few more pages. 'as curses. How did ancient tomb robbers get past these traps and-'
Skimming down the page with her finger she read it in thought to herself. 'It remains a mystery, yet it has been said that powerful dark magic can penetrate most traps. That is why we find empty tombs today.'
It obviously didn't explain much. She tuned back in to the conversation- or rather- argument that was going on.
"Well?!" Yami demanded from Bakura.
"Wait!" Tetra nearly shouted and slapped the book shut. The pharaoh looked at her in shock.
'What could she want?' thought Yami.
"What is it?" Yami asked calmly.
"Bakura, how did you get past the curses they put on the tombs?"
Bakura smirked. //This girl is the ticket out.//
"It wasn't the curses that stopped me. That was the easy part. It was the traps that were the fun part."
"But how..?"
"Well, if we were in Egypt, I could just show you. I never did get to finish my work."
//I could get the girl on my side easily if she is curious enough. She seemed to be interested this sort of thing.//
"Don't listen to him." Yami said, fully knowing that Bakura was going to take advantage of her curiosity. Tetra frowned.
"Well it would be fun to go to Egypt anyway. You want to 'remember' your past, and Isis wants to talk to Shadi about the ancient scripts..."
"I still do not agree." the spirit said sternly.
It wasn't like Tetra to argue with a spirit. All the same- she was a girl, and from experience- Yami knew this one could be flat out stubborn.
Bakura looked on intently as they argued. //This is going exactly to plan.//
After a while the pharaoh gave up. "Fine. We'll go- but," he said sternly looking to Bakura, "I'm keeping a close eye on you."
"Great! I'll go on online and by us all tickets," said Tetra on a happier tone and with that she left the room.
\\How did I lose to that mortal girl?\\ thought-spoke Yami to Yugi.
\Easily from the looks.\ Yugi responded.
\\Yugi- if we go, Bakura could somehow get back to Malik.\\
\I understand. But we'll just have to keep an eye on Bakura.\
Bakura looked at the confusion flying across the pharaoh's face and silently chuckled.
'This is perfect.' He thought to himself, 'Once in Egypt I'll be able not only to get back to Malik, but I'll have some fun with an old hobby of mine…tomb robbing.' Inside his head a nearly silent voice came from the slightly open door of Ryou's soul room.
/...but I don't want to go back to see Malik.../
//Shut up Ryou and get back in your soul room before I lock you in there. I don't need you to ruin my plans.//
