Ryou was back out. He was still walking around, and he happened to be passing by Domino High, just as the students were coming out. He was going to walk by the school, unnoticed, when he heard his name being called.

"Hey Ryou!" A familiar voice cried out. It was Yugi, with his friends Jounochi, Anzu, and Honda.

"Oh, hi guys!" Ryou said, walking toward them.

"Wat's new with you?" Jounochi asked.

"Oh this and that, you know." Ryou replied. Kids were passing by, and he could feel Bakura's need to get out and just…well…send someone to the shadow realm.

'I can't believe after all this time you've been out, you still haven't sent anyone there yet!' Ryou said through the mind link.

'I haven't have the best of luck with that yet.' Bakura replied. 'I'm sure I will here though.'

'Not a chance!' Ryou replied.

"Hey Kaiba!" Yugi yelled. Kaiba ignored Yugi and kept walking.

"Hey! Kaiba! Aren't ya gonna stop and say hi? That's kinda rude not to, ya know!" Joey shouted at the brunette's back.

"I have important business to attend to, so if I were you, I'd keep your mouth shut, mutt!" Kaiba said without turning around.

"I don't like people who disrespect my friends." Bakura said coming out. Smirk on his face. He lunged for Kaiba…only to have Kaiba side step, and grab his arm, and twist it painfully behind his back.

'I shouldn't have done that; I should have seen that coming! I can't believe I didn't see that coming!' Bakura cursed in Egyptian mentally.

"Here!" Kaiba yelled. "Take your little pet albino rat back!" He said cruelly, shoving Bakura into Yugi and his friends. Without another word, he walked away.

"That's right! Run away, cuz I was about to beat ya to a bloody pulp! Punk!" Jounochi shouted at Kaiba's receding figure. Bakura growled and cursed again. Ryou chuckled within his mind. Ryou took over again, Bakura in high bad mood.

"Well, I'd love to stick around, but I got to go." Ryou said. Waving, he turned around, and walked of the school grounds.

"Bye Ryou!"

"C ya later Ryou!" He heard Yugi and Jounochi yell to him.

Ryou headed off toward home. If he didn't get there soon, he'd most likely get hit, or worse. He walked off as quickly as he could toward his house. After about 5 minutes, he had finally arrived outside his home. He took a deep breath and opened the door, and went inside.

"Where have you been?" He heard his father ask.

"I just got out of school!" Ryou pointed out, even though he hadn't gone to school today. He ducked as a chair came flying over his head. There was a loud crash, and he looked behind him to see it had knocked some glass cups of the end table next to the couch and shattering the cup into millions of little glass shards.

"You rat bastard! Get out of school early than!" Ryou's dad shouted. Ryou wanted to shout back at him, and say something like, 'It doesn't work that way!' But he knew better not to.

'That's it hikari! Let me at him!' Bakura shouted, fighting desperately to take control, but Ryou had a pretty good grip of his own body for some reason.

'No way Bakura! You already almost got your arm broken, trying to fight Kaiba! And you're not going to hurt my dad!'

'Damn you hikari!' Was all Bakura said in reply.

"Get this place cleaned up, and get me dinner, and do all your chores, than go to your room!" His dad shouted.

'Great. Chores meaning all his chores to.' Ryou thought. His dad grabbed a beer bottle and plopped down on the couch to watch TV. Ryou went to do what he was told. Throwing random stuff in the microwave, and doing a quick cleanup in the living room, without getting in front of the TV. After that, he quickly did his chores, and his dad's, and headed off to his room.

He plopped down on his bed, and closed his eyes. Just another normal day. Nothing to hard. Enduring his father's cruelty, which really wasn't that bad considering what he'd been through already. It was just another normal day to him, and he hoped tomorrow would be the same. He quietly drifted off to sleep…

"Just another normal day…"

Eek. That sucked, didn't it? I did. Ack! I'm a terrible writer!!! I hope you liked it. Did you really like it? Please say you did! Also, I put in Yugi and some other characters, hope you didn't mind. If you'd like to see them in later chapters, just say so! I could get them more involved with the story and all. Hope you enjoyed that! Oh, and please state if you want the pairing Bakura and Ryou or not, and I will think about it! Please R&R!!!
