Oh. My. God. I can't believe it took me this long just to update this fic!
I am truly sorry! Over Christmas break, I got a serious case of writer's
block, and then after break, I was bombarded with homework!!!! After that,
my laptop got a virus! Then, I kinda forgot about this fic, and one day I
got an email saying I got another review, so the next day I wrote this
chapter during study hall. Thank you very, very, VERY much, Sour Green
Apple, or else this fic wouldn't've been updated until this summer!
Disclaimer- If I owned Yu-Gi-Oh!, do you think I'd be writing crappy fan fiction for it?!?!?

How? How was I going to find Rishid if my yami was taking over? But then, a thought came to me: whenever my yami took control, he always tried to kill Rishid. Therefore, he would find Rishid anyways. But the problem would be me trying to revive Rishid. This was going to be difficult.
My yami had started walking. He knew where Rishid was. They were bound together by ancient but powerful magick. It also worked as a tracking device, so the one always knows where the other is. How convenient.
It feels weird to be walking but my being able to move your legs. After about fifteen minutes of walking, we were at a house far on the other side of town.
My yami walked in the house. Just like that. He just plain pushed the door open and walked in without a second thought (literally). Rishid was on the floor unconscious. It looked as if he had slipped on the sleek tiles.
Marik kneeled next to him and took out the Millennium Rod. I didn't know what to do, so on impulse, I sent a scream across the mind link. It worked. Marik went out of his way to let out a string of curses, then he put up his mental defenses.
Just then, there was a crashing sound. Marik started cursing again, and, after looking to see what the noise was and finding nothing, he pulled the knife out of the Millennium Rod.
Marik held it way above his head, and it was actually coming down towards Rishid when there was a loud scream. I was frightened, and even more so when I realized that it was coming from my own mouth-ok, *his* own mouth.
Not being able to feel what he feels, I started trying to see what had happened. It didn't take long, though, because Marik looked down at his ankle, which I realized was bleeding-badly. After examining his ankle for a few seconds, Marik then looked up and across the room.
As I looked, my stomach gave a jolt, like missing a step unexpectedly while going down stairs. It was the death adder I had seen in the park, coiled up across the room, with its neck spread out and markings on its neck like a king cobra's. But wait, death adders aren't cobras. I blinked, and when I looked back, there was a cobra staring back instead of the death adder. But I had just seen it, I know I had.
Marik got up, the Millennium Rod glowing blood-red in his fury. He started across the room towards the snake. It started to hiss. Its fangs were red from the bite, and there was pure hatred in its eyes. I figured it could tell the difference from me and Marik. Thank Rah.
I realized that if it had bit Marik, then it must've been on my side, not his. In all the confusion, Marik's metal defenses had gone down again, so I said through the link:
"Marik, don't go near it, don't hurt it!"
With that he replied, "Shut up, Malik, I'll do whatever I damn please, you can't stop me!"
As he finished his threat, I got an idea.
"Watch me." I sent over the link.
Marik stopped just feet from the snake in confusion of what I had just said. He was about to retort to it when he went flying halfway across the room and hit the wall, courtesy of me.
"You've bossed me around for that last time, Marik, I'm not going to put up with it anymore!" I gathered all my strength and will power, and picked up my left leg, and gave Rishid a kick. It sounds mean, but it worked.
Rishid started stirring. As he opened his eyes, Marik was confined back to the Millennium Rod, and I got control of my body again.
Rishid sat up, and looked around in confusion.
"My house! What happened!?!"
I explained to him how he had been unconscious and how Marik tried to kill him. Then, I told him about the snake. When I was done with that, I looked at my watch. I had only ten minutes to get back to the library and meet the person.
After muttering a hurried good-bye to Rishid, I flat-out ran as fast as I could to the library. When I got there, with three minutes to spare, I caught my breath. I walked around the side of the old building and waited by a tree where people usually meet. I kept looking around, and finding no one. After five minutes, I became aware of the pain in my ankle. I looked down to see a scar. Wow, that sure healed fast!
After ten minutes, I figured that someone was playing a mean trick on me, and was about to leave.
It was then I saw a figure running towards me..

J- MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Aren't I evil, not telling you who Malik's only friend is???
Yami J- No, not really considering that *you* don't even know it.
J- Which brings me to my next point. In your review, will you pretty please vote for who you want to be Malik's only friend? If no one votes, I have a back-up, but I really want to have the readers decide. Thankies!!!!
