Tenshi: Well, hi everybody! ^^ It's just Duke, Yugi, and me this time. Kerra went to go hang out with Iris-sama and we're not too sure where Yami went. Right Yugi?
Yugi: *shrugs* Don't look at me. I don't know where he went.
Tenshi: -_- Great even my muses are leaving. Oh, well. ^^ Might as well look on the bright side. I officially have two reviews (or more) so I thought- what the heck- and decided to write the next chapter.
Kerra: *peeks her head out from her room* Liar. You just don't want to do your math homework!
Tenshi: ^^" Um, yeah.
Yugi: *sighs* Tenshi.
Tenshi: ^^" Anyway, review responses are at the bottom instead of at the top. It's just easier that way. Also, like I promised, this chapter is about the yamis and it's basically in their point of view. Sort of. ^^" Also, Pegasus MIGHT be in this chapter, I'm not sure yet. If he is, then Seto MIGHT be in here also. This story is basically writing itself so don't be surprised if something new pops up. *turns to Yugi* Okay, now you can do the disclaimer.
Yugi: ^^ Okay. Disclaimer: Yam-
Duke: How come he gets to do the Disclaimer? Why can't someone else do it?
Tenshi: Because Yugi is SO CUTE!!! *hugs Yugi*
Duke: -_-
Yugi: ^^ Anyway, back to my job. Disclaimer: Yami's Tenshi does not own Yugioh! or any of it's characters. So please do not sue. Thank you.
Tenshi: Also, this chapter is dedicated to all who wanted to hear about the yamis. Well, here you go. *Tenshi and Yugi snuggle into their bean bags, this time with lots of chocolate bars. Duke grabs a candy bar and sits down in his bean bag, confused* Enjoy!
Chapter 6: All the Lonely Spirits
*Bakura's P.OV*
*//Oh, how tormented a soul may be, thriving, thrashing,-and firmly refusing to see outside of its prison//*
Ah, how long has it been since I have seen the outside world? It feels like forever. Who knows? Once can't tell passage of time when one's spirit is trapped in this confounded thing, so it could very well be forever. But then, what does it matter?
Ever since that thrice-damned High Priest betrayed me and put my soul in this twice-cursed ring, my mind has been plotting terrible revenge. I don't know how long it took me to finally realize that I wasn't getting out of here, but I did accept it, bitterly and defeated. Thinking, for that was practically all one could do here, I wondered what it was exactly my life had lead up to.
Some might think that's deep thinking for a Tomb Robber, but I wasn't born a thief.
When I had been born, there was no joyous cries, no cuddling arms, and definitely no loving parents. I was the last of five children and had come as a total surprise to everybody- and not a good surprise either. My father, who hadn't wanted any children at all, was furious at the birth of yet another mouth to feed. My siblings and I never got along. They never bothered caring about me and I never spared any love on them. Yet, no matter we disdained each other, we were bitter enemies against our father.
My father did terrible things to us, both physically and mentally, but I won't bother thinking about them. All I got from him were cruel words, but there was the occasional beating. Mostly, he left us alone and that was when we liked him best.
My mother never raised her voice against my father's behavior nor did she offer any sympathy. She was always tired of life and it seemed that there had been too much pain for the woman to absorb. I never quite disliked her, but she got no love from me.
As soon as I was twelve I left that household, forever, and I haven't looked back since. That was when I got into grave robbing. I'm not too sure how it happened, but I knew that I had to make a living somehow. The mazes and traps of the tombs fascinated me and I soon became a master of getting in and out of tombs. No one could catch me, though the Pharaoh Yugioh came close.
He had laid a trap for me when I was fourteen and I still seethe at the thought that I had almost been caught. The pharaoh was certainly clever and I suppose I respect him a bit for that. However, respect does not mean I liked him. Narrowly escaping with my life, I plotted revenge.
So what had I done?
Why, I snuck into Yugioh's father's tomb and along with the treasures, I took out the body. Now it was blasphemy enough to even go into a pharaoh's tomb and it was practically damnation to take a body out, but I didn't stop there. I silently entered the pharaoh's palace and dumped the body right outside Yugioh's door. Ha! How the pharaoh had raged after that!
Two years later, I had met Priest Seth and everything went downhill from there. That bastard betrayed me and trapped me here for who knows how long. Oh how I wish I could see his blood spill in my hands.
Even I can admit that I am a bitter soul and perhaps I can even be called a demon. I now lived in the shadows and they were eating away at my spirit. I was becoming nothing but evil itself.
*//Observe how an Angel can soften the Demon's heart.//*
That is until I met him- Ryou.
I suppose I could say that I met him in my dreams, though I am neither awake nor asleep in this prison. It was so strange. There I was, being consumed by the darkness that is this item, and I knew that this was it; my soul was to be ripped in shreds. Then there came light.
It chased away the darkness and made the shadows release their hold on me. Amazed and surprised, I went towards it and what I found changed my life- forever.
At first I was sure that it was an angel- a tenshi- that I watched that night. The boy lay there, on the dark cold floors, sleeping. What was strange was that he looked just like me! But no, not quite. He had the same white hair, but his fell softly around his shoulders; not jagged like mine. His skin was pale and when I knelt down and brushed his cheek, the skin felt as smooth as satin. Surprisingly, he apparently felt my hand caress his face, more gently than I ever remember being, for he let out a content sigh and his small mouth made a soft smile. A name instantly popped into my head, as though I had known it and treasured it my whole life, 'Ryou'.
I met him many times after that and he was always asleep. For the first time ever, I was shy and I shivered to think what he would do should the boy open his eyes and find me. I couldn't bear it, but I didn't bother to think about it much. For the first time in my life, I was content and happy.
Slowly, I began to notice that the boy would change and I concluded that years passed. I watched the gently boy grow into a kind hearted teen and all while he slept. But I knew that life was not so kind to this tenshi. As time went by, I saw more and more bruises mar the boy's skin and I felt rage toward those that dared to hurt him. It made me want to leave the Ring more than ever. I swore each time I saw a bruise or a cut that should I get out of this Ring, I would take care of the boy first.
It is strange how this boy has come to melt my heart, but I don't really care. Somehow I know that I can hand this boy my heart, fragile as glass, and he would treat like a treasure. Oh, what I would give to get out of here!
"Thinking again, Bakura?" a feminine voice whispered.
"What do you want, Damasu?" I growled.
A child-like being with dull yellow hair stepped into view; her green dress fell to the floor, hiding her foot steps, and in her palms there was a red heart. She also had wings. One was that of an angel, white with soft feathers. The other was that of a bat or demon, black and had a claw at the end. She was the Change of Heart and she was my only company, save for Ryou. I nicknamed her Damasu, which means "to deceive". I thought it a fitting name for one who tricked monsters to turn against their monsters. We met rarely and even then, we exchanged few words. We both kept to ourselves and we made quite a pair. She, the guardian of the Millennium Ring and it's holder, and I, the spirit trapped within it. I suppose that's irony for she was my favorite monster. She often has the annoying habit of knowing what I'm thinking though.
So I wasn't surprised when she said, "It is sad of how you long for freedom so much." What surprised me was, "but you needn't worry, Master. You shall be free soon and you can protect that little one with all of your heart."
I obviously gaped at her for she gave a short laugh.
"Yes Master," she smiled. "You will be free soon." With one last smile, she left.
I bowed my head in thought. Finally, I was going to be free. A boy with white hair popped into my mind. I gazed at the shadows, wistfully, 'Ryou.'
*End Bakura's P.O.V*

*Yami's P.O.V*
*/Darkness can not be without Light for Light brings hope and Darkness consumes Hope.//*
I have decided that I do not like the darkness for all that I've been renamed. It always seems to destroy and I have had enough of pain. Sighing, I hope and pray that Yugi is alright.
Yugi.
I have never dreamed that I could care about something so much. For some reason, this boy meant more to me than life itself. And it didn't take much to figure out why.
The boy looked like my double, but then again not quite. His skin was smoother and his eyes more bright than a star. They were a soft violet that sparkled hope, innocence and tranquility. Whenever he was in pain and he looked at you with those eyes, you could feel your whole heart break. From the first time I saw him cry, I knew that I wanted to stop those tears from ever coming again.
For Yugi was an angel. Maybe not literally, but he was the purest of innocence and I could feel it in every fiber of my being that my purpose was to protect Yugi. Not only was it part of my destiny, but I wanted to do it. Wanted to make sure those violet eyes never filled with hurt again, to see that the pale skin never bruised, and to make sure that this boy retained his innocence. He was my Light and I would have no other.
But something made my spirit ache. Something big was going on out there and great danger was brewing. Even from inside the pieces of the puzzle, I could feel a great power growing and growing; and it wasn't exactly the good kind either. My thoughts, which had turned to Yugi daily, now were filled with worried and I wanted, more than anything, to be freed so I could go protect my aibou, my hikari.
"Master, please," a childish voice chided me. A face with golden hair and big blue eyes popped up in front of me. "You're worrying us sick what with all of your sulking." The face backed up a bit and a teenage girl with a blue and pink hat along with a matching dress and wand appeared before me. It was the Dark Magician Girl.
"Leave him alone, Unmei," a deep voice whispered softly. "Can't you tell he's worried about the Little One?" A tall man with long purple hair and purple robes and hat stood behind her. He held a light blue staff that held an orb at the top in his right hand- the Dark Magician.
Unemei, the Dark Magician Girl, scowled, "I know that, Mahou. I'm worried about the Little One too. But HE'S worrying me more right now. I don't think this is natural."
Mahou let out a soft snort, "Since when has any of this been natural?"
I didn't even bother to listen to Unemi's retort. The two quarreled so much that I was starting to get used to it. The two had been assigned as guardians of the Millennium Puzzle and got more freedom than I did. For instance, they were able to travel (sort of) out of the Puzzle. They didn't like leaving me, but they did check up on Yugi now and then for me. I had nicknamed them myself, since I convinced them that they may as well have names. I came up with "Unmei"- fate, destiny- for my reasons and it was an inside joke that only the Dark Magician Girl understood. Mahou- magic- still doesn't get it. I suppose its sort of obvious of why Mahou was named for. He likes things nice and simple. Though they can be tiring, especially Unemi, they were still my companions and were more trustworthy than some humans I have known.
I scowled as my cousin's face appeared in my mind. Even now, the shock of betrayal captured me. I had always know that my uncle's son had never been loyal to me, but I had never figured him to plot against me. What's more was that he had won! I clenched my fists and had I still had a body, my palms would have bled.
That was another thing I would do once I was out of the puzzle. I would find what had happened to my cousin. Of course, I figured that many years had already passed though I have no idea how many, so it may be his descendents I come upon. It doesn't matter. He should pay for stripping me of what was mine and taking away my life. My crimson eyes narrowed into a fierce glare as I felt something akin to hatred burn and manifest itself in my soul.
"Master," I heard Mahou call softly. Making myself calm down, I looked up at him. He looked at me with deep, purple eyes as though he could see something inside me that I couldn't see. Seeing that he had my attention, he continued, "I feel that you will be freed soon." My eyes widened in joy. "But you should be aware, Master, that once freed there will be decisions you will have to make. I bid that you choose wisely. Others will yell at you to take the wrong path while your heart will whisper the truth. So, please listen Master." His eyes were starting to look desperate.
"Mahou," I asked softly. "What is wrong?"
Unemi gave a swift glance at her comrade.
Mahou just looked at me sadly, "I have foreseen you making a dreadful mistake. One that tore your whole heart to shreds. Please Master, do be careful of your decisions."
I contemplated these words, but so grand was the joy of being free, I pushed them aside. "Don't worry about it, Mahou," I assured them both. "I promise, I will be careful."
I turned back to my thoughts and the subject of Seth popped up again. Once more bitter hatred filled me and my eyes narrowed. Seth and his family would pay. Oh, they would pay dearly. A picture of wide, violet eyes flashed through my mind. Yugi. I couldn't take him with me. That much was sure. If Seth ever found my hikari, who knows what he would do to him. I let my mind tease itself with pleasurable thoughts of torture to use on Seth to avenge myself or should he ever hurt Yugi. Yes, once I finished off Seth and his descendents then I would return to my innocent hikari and I would protect him for the rest of eternity. Once again, my fists clenched and nails dug into palms. 'Oh Seth,' I raged. 'You will pay. You will pay dearly.'

I didn't even bother to listen to Unemi's retort. The two quarreled so much that I was starting to get used to it.

Yes, once I finished off Seth and his descendents then I would return to my innocent hikari and I would protect him for the rest of eternity. Once again, my fists clenched and nails dug into palms. 'Oh Seth,' I raged. 'You will pay. You will pay dearly.'
