Yami JK: Now you're acting like a hikari.
Author: Shut up, yami. I can send you to the shadow realm.
Yami JK: Gee... I'm scared! Downright scared!
Author: Will you just shut the heck up!!!
Yami JK: Spawn of Anubis...
Author: Who's the spawn of Anubis?!
Yami JK: Do you see anybody else?
Author: Grr. . . when I get my hands on Hazeru and Rena they would pay... very dearly that not even you, yami, can stop me.
Yami JK: You're so crazy...
Author: Well... anyone would be crazy if they have a yami who would suddenly get their hands on the computer and continue a fic that isn't theirs!
Yami JK: Oh come on! Admit it! You liked my chapter.

Yami JK: KNEW IT!
Author: Don't tell me you could read my mind?!
Yami JK: You forgot the mind link.
Author: AUGH!!! FINE THEN! LET THE CHAPTER START!
Chapter 11:
Note: Okay. There's also a tinge of RyouxBakura. And I personally really like it. Oh gosh! I forgot about Ryou and Malik! Oh well... they'll appear now people.
"Wake up, aibou." Yami shook Yugi awake. Yugi opened his eyes slowly and rubbed his eyes. He smiled at the nickname that Yami gave him. He gave Yami a quick kiss on the lips as he giggled like a child.
Yami patted his back. "Now, now, aibou. There are people that I want you to meet." "Who?" Yugi asked. Yami smiled as he led him towards the door. Two people came inside. One seems like an albino with a very cheery smile on, and the other one with tan skin and blond hair.
"Yugi, meet Ryou," Yami pointed at the white haired boy. ",and Malik." He said as he pointed at the blond haired boy.
"Hi!" Yugi greeted. The two guys smiled. "Hi. So I finally met Yami's friend. He tells me a lot about him." Ryou said, breaking the silence. Yugi sighed in relief. He didn't want anyone to know their relationship yet.
"Yami?" Yugi whispered when Ryou and Malik spoke to each other for a while. "Yeah?" "Uhh... they don't know about out relationship, do they?" Yugi asked. Yami noticed Ryou's ears perk up. He giggled. "Malik doesn't. Neither does Ryou. But I got a feeling that he'll know soon enough." Yami whispered back.
"Whew. Saved." Yugi thought to himself. It caused Ryou to smile at him. "Saved by what?" He asked. Yugi was shocked. "Did he know what I was thinking?" Yugi asked. The thought was once again returned by a smile. "Kind of. I can read minds you know." "What?! You read my mind?!" Yugi shrieked. Ryou nodded. "Yep."
"Sorry Yugi. I forgot to tell you. Ryou can read minds. Malik can do the same. Let's just say that my power is to seal away your power for the time being." Yami explained. Yugi looked at them.
Ryou nudged Malik. "Hey Malik. Your turn to speak up." Malik shrugged. "Well... what more can I said. You said everything that I wanted to say." He retorted.
"Yugi, these are my cousins. Ryou is the son of my father's brother and Malik is the son of my mother's sister." Yami smiled. It was Ryou who greeted first. "Hi Yugi. Yami has been telling us about you." Ryou said once again in introduction.
"I just hope that he still doesn't know about our relationship." Yugi thought. Ryou laughed, leaving Yugi confused. "What's so funny?" "It's because I already told you that I can read your mind, Yugi. You can't hide anything from me." Ryou said.
Malik patted him on the back. "Ryou, you never changed!" Malik said. The four laughed. It was yami who broke the laughter. "Well then. What brings you here? It's been a long time ever since we've met. How long was that?" Yami thought.
"It's been three years, Yami." Malik said. "Oh! Right! Three years! Anyway, what is your purpose on coming here?" Yami asked.
"Well Yami. This was Ryou's idea anyway. I heard that you are in need for tacticians and royal advisors." Malik said. "Hey... Ryou, you are already currently Yami's royal advisor, right? Then where were you after we went to Saudi Arabia? And another one. What do you mean by three years? I just saw you a week ago." Yugi asked.
"Yugi, it was Malik who was gone for three years. I decided to take a break for a while. So that's why I went to the southern part of Egypt. There I saw Malik buying something from a merchant. I wasn't sure at first. But when I called him, he turned around and noticed me. I told him about the current situations that we're in. I asked him if he could be a part of us and he agreed. I was even wondering on why he was dressed as a peasant even though he's the pharaoh's cousin." Ryou explained.
Yugi nodded. "Okay."
Meanwhile, at the hidden magical place, Bakura and Anzu were once again looking at the crystal ball. They were talking about other plans for, well, exterminating the two. But Bakura's eyes were locked onto Ryou. Anzu noticed this and smirked.
"What's that look on your face, oh high and mighty high magician Bakura?" Anzu mocked. "Don't tell me that you got hit by a cupid's arrow to fall for the pharaoh's royal advisor? What was his name? Ra-oo?" "It's Ryou." "Ryou fine whatshisname. Well... don't tell me that you're falling for him?" "No. That will never happen. He is the pharaoh's cousin, therefore he is my enemy too. And I don't fall for my enemies."
Back to Yami and Yugi's place...
"So... what are we going to do now?" Yugi asked. "Okay. Malik, are you okay to stay with Jou? He's the second in command of the guards. Seto's the main commander. You'll be the one to train the guards and do the tactics with Anzu." Yami said as he received a nod from Malik. Yami turned around to Ryou. "Ryou, you'll stay as a royal advisor." Ryou nodded.
Yami felt Yugi tugging his sleeve. "What is it Yugi?" He asked. "Yami," Yugi started. "I want to fight too. I don't want to be a bother. I want to learn on how to protect myself. I want to know how to defend myself. Train me please." Yami looked at Yugi and sighed. "I can't Yugi. You know how busy I am." Yami said.
"Then let me be the one to train him." Ryou said. "After all, I also know how to fight. I can use magic myself. I'm not a weakling, Yami." He said. Yami hesitated but accepted Ryou's offer. Malik grinned and poked Yami's shoulder. "Stop hesitating Yami. You know Ryou's power and skill is so strong too that it even rival's the high magician's capabilities." "Gee... I'm flattered." Ryou said as he slightly blushed. "It's true! Come on, Ryou!" Malik said as they all eventually laughed.
"Yami's very lucky. He has such good friends." Yugi thought. "Well... let's see you fight, Ryou." Yami said. Malik crossed his arms. "What for? Ryou doesn't need to show off." "Nah. Just to check if you're still sharp. You know. Years without using your fighting skills may get you rusty. Care to fight with Jou?" Yami challenged. "I accept, Yami."
One of the palace's rooms looks like a huge barren wasteland. The sand is flying everywhere. "It's been a long time since the last time I used this room. I also miss Jou and Seto. The five of us used to practice here, remember?" Ryou said. The door opened again as Jou entered. When Jou saw Ryou, Malik, and Yami together, his face beamed with delight as he ran up to them.
"Ryou! Malik! How're ya buds?! Yam's (err... that's what Jou calls yami in this fic) here also. Seemz like Set's the n'ly one missing. Too bad." Jou said as he placed his arms around his three friends. "Well... meh betta watch meh tongue eh. Em speaking with da pharaoh. Watcha called meh for, Pharaoh Yami?" Yami giggled. "Well... I need to you practice with Ryou for a while." Yami said.
Jou 'whoopee' as he got his sword out. "Yea! Meh wanna fight wid ya for a long time, Ryou!" Ryou took out his weapon too.
Author: Sorry for the disrupting. Ryou's weapon kinda looks like Ren's (Shaman King) weapon. What is that called anyway?)
"Are you ready, Ryou?" Jou asked as he made a fighting stance. Ryou just stood up straight and smiled. "Ready when you are, Jou!"
"Start!"
Jou ran up to Ryou first and made a frontal attack. Ryou made a defensive stance against a frontal attack. "This is good. Ryou thinks that a frontal attack is what I'll do. Well... he got it wrong. When I'm just a few inches away from him, I'll sway and change my position and attack him from the back to knock his weapon away and win this match. This is good." Jou thought to himself. "Ryou, you're going down!"
What Jou didn't notice was the blade was in front of Ryou instead of at the back. Ryou grinned to himself.
"This is perfect. It seems like I've made the right stance. Jou's making me see that he's gonna do a frontal attack but in truth he'll switch positions and attack me from behind. I got your plan Jou. You won't win against me." Ryou thought.
Jou suddenly jumped up and landed behind Ryou. He didn't see Ryou smirk. Jou turned his back and aimed for Ryou's weapon. "Just what I thought." Ryou thought to himself as he swayed his arm, which was holding the weapon to turn the weapon towards Jou. The blade of Ryou weapon was just inches near Jou's throat. Ryou smirked.
"Anything better Jou?"
Jou jumped backwards and ran towards Ryou. He raised his sword up to hit Ryou. Ryou was a bit shocked but managed to turn around to make his weapon stop Jou's attack. "Jou, you're getting rusty." Ryou said. "No I'm not!" Jou said as he made a swift turn around Ryou and tried to slash him. Ryou managed to hit Jou's sword and knocked it out of Jou's hands.
He was about to hit Jou when Jou jumped back and managed to grab the handle of his sword and counterattacked. Ryou turned around just in time to block the sword. They jumped away from each other.
"Man Ryou! You're better than ever!" Jou said as he smiled. "You too." Ryou said. Both were panting and sweating hard.
"Let's continue this Jou!" "Yeah!"
Every clash, slash, jumps, to make it short, every move made the fight even more exciting. Yami, Yugi, and Malik were watching the fight, amused.
"Whoa... this is incredible... I've never seen anyone fight like this before. Awesome." Yugi said in awe. Yami placed his hand at Yugi's shoulder. "Then be prepared Yugi. Sooner or later you'll learn all those stances. It's gonna be hard, but I know you could do it." Yami said. Yugi nodded.
"Take this Ryou!" Jou said as he made an attack on Ryou side. Ryou barely avoided it and it slashed his robe. "Nice one Jou! My turn!" Ryou said as he dashed in a fast speed towards Jou.
Yami was impressed even though he knew that he could do better. "Wow. When did Ryou ever learn to run that fast?" "No idea." Malik said as he turned his attention back to the fight. "Gee... I wouldn't want to face Ryou in a one on one fight. He improved a lot."
Ryou's weapon and Jou's sword met each other. The two jumped back and panted a lot. They were even using their weapon for support now.
"With a fight that fierce, it's no wonder that they're that tired." Malik said.
Jou suddenly sat down on the ground. "I give up." Ryou sweatdropped. "You give up?! What are you saying?! You aren't the type to give up, Jou. I'm a royal advisor and you're the warrior. If this is a magic fight, I'm sure that I have the advantage. But this is a weapon fight. You have the advantage Jou. I'm more tired than you! You have more stamina than I have." Ryou said.
"I still... huff... need my ... huff... energy... huff... to train the soldiers. Huff... and you too Ryou... huff... you still need your energy to train Yug'." Jou said as he stood up to help Ryou stand up. "Thanks. You have a point there."
"Wow! Awesome! What a fight! You two were great!" Yugi exclaimed. "Just wait until Yami fights. You'll say words that cannot even describe Yami here." Jou said. The four of them laughed.
"It's too bad we're only four." Malik said. "Learn to count, Malik." A cool voice said. They turned around to see Seto smiling at them.
"Seto!"
"I saw the fight. You improved Ryou. It's been three years ever since you last fought. You haven't been rusty." Seto said.
"Rusty? Yeah I have. A little. Jou managed to cut through my robe, see? I didn't improve. Jou and the others are still better than me." Ryou said. Malik patted him on the back. "Too humble, Ryou. Too humble."
"I can't believe you gave up, Jou!" Seto said as he patted Jou's head. Jou shoved Seto's hand away playfully. "I'm no dog, Seto!"
They laughed.
Seto looked at Yugi.
"You must be Yugi, right?"
"Right."
Seto walked near Yugi and whispered something to his ear. "Ryou isn't the only one who knows about your relationship with Yami. The four of us knows."
"WHAT?! THE FOUR OF YOU KNEW?!" Yugi exclaimed.
"If Seto told you about you and Yami's relationship, yeah we know about that." Malik said as he grinned like a Cheshire cat.
"But how did you know?!" Yugi demanded with a deep blush on his face. Yami have one too, though he tries to hide it.
"C'mon Yug'! Ur too obvious! Another proof is that you and Yami are H.H.W.W." Jou said.
"What's H.H.W.W?" Yugi wondered.
"Holding hands while walking." Ryou said.
That caused Yugi and Yami to blush deeper than ever.
They laughed.
At Bakura's place...
"Laugh all they want." Anzu said. "Yeah. Their happy days are soon to be over." Bakura continued as they both went out of the room and closed the dark curtain behind.
Author's notes: There! All done!
Yami JK: Lame fighting scene you got there, hikari.
Author: Shut up Yami. You're the one for fighting scenes while I do the general. My friend recommends the romance parts.
Yami JK: Hmm? And I really wonder how such a person with a weak imagination make a fanfic like this.
Author: Remember yami. I made you so I could take you out of this story.
Yami JK: Not if I get you out first.
Author: Remember. If I go, you go too. But it won't have an effect on me if I am the one who kicks you out.
Yami JK: Fine. Don't review her guys. Flame her. Flame her.
Author: Get back to the bracelet!
Yami JK: Nope.
Author: Augh... fine. Anyway... Ryou seems a bit OOC/OC. So are Seto and Jou. Gee I can't imagine Ryou fighting Jou that well. Nor are Seto and Jou being nice to one another. Well... reviews please! Please tell me what you think!
