Chapter 9 - Dear Friends
The wave of light stops and Slifer disappears. All that remained of the battleground was Yugi, Tea, Joey, Tristan, and limp, either unconscience...or dead, Runi. Yugi walks over and kneels down, pulling the broken duel disk off of Runi's wrist. Then he noticed it. The gold band that had been around Runi's neck at the beginning of the duel was gone completely. He didn't see it anywhere, not even a mark. He shakes his head, it probably wasn't something he should worry about anyway.
Bakura walks out of the shadows and smirks. He was holding black book. "I don' think your little pathetic friend will be waking up any time soon."
Yugi blinks, he'd seen that book before. That was RUNI's book! What was he doing with it? Yugi then realises that this was NOT Bakura. It was spirit of Millenium Ring. "Give that back!"
Bakura smirks, "No, You see, it's former owner does not need it any longer."
"Then let's play a game for it!" Yugi says, changing into Yami and takeing out some dice."Here are the rules. It's simple, roll a 4 or lower and you win, if I roll lower then your number, I win. If you get a five of higher, you automatically lose. You can roll first."
"With pleasure," Bakura takes the dice and rolls it. He got a two. Snake eyes.
Yami takes the dice and rolls it. The first die lands on one and the second one stops spinning, but stay in that position not landing on any number.
"I win," he says then puts out a hand, "The book, please."
"You're a cheater!" he starts to run with it but Tristan and Joey tackle him. Joey grabs the book from Bakura.
"You shouldn't take things that aren't yours..." he says and hands the book to Yami. Bakura brakes loose of Tristan and Joey's grip and dashes up the street, so as not to be tackled again. Yami looks at the book in his hands curiously.
"Why do you open it, Yugi? I'm sure Runi will never find out if we took a peek." Joey says, walking over to Yami, after scowling at Bakura. Not so sure this was right, he opens the book to a picure of a noble red dragon and a small paragraph of swirly words, He reads it aloud to the others.
"Dear Friends,
I cannot tell you how much I want to Thank You. I thought I was forgotten, that's why, I believe, that my past self had returned to the living. It was filling in that space where I was empty. It wasn't that band, I have realised that was takeing my soul. I was taking my own, and only one that could show me friendship could bring it back. You are my new found friends and also my new found family. I will honor you till the day I die just like- what are they called again? oh yes,-like a samurai and live each day in your presence as a Pharaonic Guardian."
Sincerly, your friend, Runi Hontuu"
