CHAPTER FOUR: NAME CHANGE (by Rhapsody)

Bakura flopped down on his bed.  He was exhausted from worrying about his cousin and his enemy together all day (and from foiling Yami's attempts at… eh… romance).  Ryou was exhausted too, from working all day.  He came in and fell onto the bed beside Bakura, who disappeared into his Ring without a word.

He heard (Light) Kikai come in and walk down the hall.  She stopped at his doorway.

"You know, it wasn't very nice of you to draft me for your job when I was on a date, Ryou," she scolded the boy.

"Well, you should help out more."

"It's not my fault my Dark doesn't do anything 'round the house.  I never get my body back from her unless we're on a date and she wants to make out with Yami."

"Did she come in yet?"

She sweatdropped.  "Bakura walked her in and gave her a lecture about 'going too far with that perverted pharaoh.'  She fell asleep in the middle of it and went back to her Item."

Ryou sweatdropped too.  "Sounds like Kikai…"

"You know what?" she said suddenly.  "I don't like my name.  Kikai!  It means 'weird.'  I'm not that weird; well, except for my Millennium Item.  My Dark can have my name.  I wanna be called something else."

"What?" he asked.

"Um…  I don't know.  I'll let you know… when I think of it!  I'm going to bed."  She yawned and walked off.  Ryou fell asleep too.

"Stir, stir, stir the brew, make it nice and thick.  Pour it in the Pharaoh's drink and watch him lose his wits," Isis sung, to the tune of "Row, Row, Row Your Boat."  She frowned and thought a moment.  It didn't exactly rhyme.  Oh well.  She shrugged and returned to her potion-making.  Yami would lose his wits, indeed…  And fall for her.

Bakura awoke in the middle of the night.  Declining to wake his Light, he took an ethereal form and wandered into the kitchen, rubbing his eyes and yawning.  He opened the fridge and stared into it a little.  Something rubbed against his legs and he gave a start.

"Wha?"

"Woof," was the reply.  Bakura looked down and saw a scruffy white dog.

"How'd you get in here?"

Then he noticed the dog door in the kitchen one.

"When'd we get this?"

The dog shook himself all over.  He had rolled in mud after catching the Frisbee, so he got the kitchen pretty messy.  Bakura growled.

"You stupid dog, my Light just cleaned this…"

Cease your whining, puny human!  When I take over this world you will be my slave! the dog replied, a strange glint in his slanted purple eyes.

"What?!"

The dog did not say anything more.  He growled instead, and barked once.

"Shut up, you'll wake everyone!"

He grabbed the dog and kicked it out.

A dog that wants to take over the world… he contemplated as he returned to room.  Am I just dreaming?

He went back to bed with his question unanswered.
