Oh! I thank thee soooooooo much for all the reviews! *bows at all of you that reviewed* Thank you thank you thank you!!! Oh yesh, and I think someone asked who Ryou was. Ryou is Bakura, and Bakura is Yami Bakura. ^_~ Hope that's clear! Hope you enjoy the story, and please R&R!!! Warning: Swear words! (mainly from Bakura! LOL)

*****************************************************

"Hikari!!! Hikari! Wake up!!!" Bakura yelled at Ryou, trying to wake him up. It was near morning, and Ryou's dad had fallen asleep.

"Hikari! Damn you! WAKE UP!!!" Bakura took his hand, and pinched his cheeks, his thumb on one side of his cheek, and his middle finger on the other cheek, and shook his head violently, yelling the whole time.

"Huh?" Ryou stirred.

"Well it's about time!" Bakura exclaimed furiously.

"Sorry." Ryou said, in his sweet British accent.

"Damn you! You sleep like a log!"

"Huh? What happened?" Ryou asked.

"Your damned dad knocked you out." Bakura explained. Then Ryou felt it. A surging pain went through him, and he felt a spot on his head. It must have been the spot where his father had hit him, and it was still bleeding slightly.

"Where is he." Ryou asked his Yami.

"Damned bastard fell asleep. Thank Ra." Bakura explained.

"That language of yours is very colorful." Ryou noted.

"And you just noticed?" Bakura said, a bit of sarcasm in his tone.

"Well, whatever." Ryou said, getting in that grumpy mood again. Bakura disappeared from beside him. Ryou got up, and headed to his room. He changed then went outside. He shouldn't get beat up for going outside this time. After all, it was morning. He should've been at school an hour ago, but he decided to just get out of the house and wander around. He pulled his jacket tight against him.

"You know," Bakura started through the mind link, "It wouldn't be such a bad idea to let me have a little fun with your dad." Bakura finished.

"No. I'm not going to let you banish him to the shadow realm. No matter how cruel he is. He's still my dad. He's the only family I have left." Bakura just smirked. "Besides…didn't you banish anyone to the shadow realm yesterday, when you took over?" Ryou asked.

"No, but I should've." Bakura said, sounding disappointed.

"What did you do then?" Ryou asked.

"Oh, just this and that. I broke someone's arm." He exclaimed happily. "But then again, he didn't put up much of a fight." He said, the happiness dieing. "If he had, I would've broken a few more bones, and then banished him to the shadow realm." Ryou felt a sudden change overcome him.

"Now what are you going to do?" He asked, as Bakura took over.

"I need to walk around. I need fresh air. I need to have some fun. I'm bored." Bakura explained forcefully.

"Fine" Ryou said through the mind link.

Bakura headed off. Maybe he'd have more fun, sense there were more people out now. He passed by a couple of small kids and glared at them. They cringed at the look he was giving them, and ran off. Bakura chuckled to himself. He walked on, and turned in an alley. He glanced around, and saw no one. Disapointedly, he turned around to walk back, when an icy hand grabbed him. He whirled around to meet the person. No one. There was no one there. 'That was strange' He thought to himself. 'I could've sworn there was someone who grabbed me.' He examined the alley more closely. He did this for about five minutes, until he came to the conclusion, that he was letting his imagination get the better of him. He turned to leave.

"Betta watch your back." A soft voice whispered with the wind. Bakura whirled around again.

"Who's there?" He asked. "Show yourself, coward! Or I'll," Bakura started.

"Banish me to the shadow realm? Oh please. You can't even see me." The voice whispered. Bakura glared in the darkness.

"Who are you?" Bakura asked. There was no answer. "Hello?" Still no answer. Bakura wondered if the raw meat he ate was getting the better of him. He relaxed, and walked out of the alley, and wandered off.
