Hi hi, thanks for the reviews.
To Peter Kim: That's a good question. I can see you don't keep your eyes in your jacket pocket. Enough sliming, I'm going to answer your question. Yami Bakura does not get boosted because he's in Egypt. He gets a boost because he's close to his own grave.
And? Yami is near his piramid too.
Well, according to what I've seen in the Manga Yami Bakura used to be a magician, even before he got the Millennium Ring. He was able to somehow withstand the power from the Millennium Items and he was able to play a Shadow Game, while the others needed their Items for that. The Pharaoh had no powers of his own, his powers camer from the Puzzle. We may assume that the... uh... remains of Yami Bakura still contain the power of Darkness. That's why he gets boosted and Yami does not.
Seto: (bursts inside) Has anyone seen my trenchcoat?
Ryou: Your trenchcoat?
Seto: Yes, my t-r-e-n-c-h-c-o-a-t.
Yami: We all know how to spell the word "trenchcoat", Kaiba.
Ryou-Ran: I believe Hikari Lunar has got it.
Seto: What? What would a dog do with my trenchcoat?
Marik: Nibble holes in it?
Yami Bakura: ?
Seto: No! My trenchcoat! (tries to free his beloved trenchcoat)
Wolf: Grrr!
Seto: OW! MOKUBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! SHE BIT ME! (runs away with half the trenchcoat)
Yami Bakura: Wow, good dog!
Wolf: Grr...
Yami Bakura: Uh... good wolf, I mean. (sees a mirror) Hey, what's that? (looks in the mirror, sees himself) WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! WHAT A CREEP! (jumps in Ryou's arms)
Ryou: OO"
Tristan: --"That's your own reflection, Yami Bakura.
Yami Bakura: Oh. (sees he's in Ryou's arms) OO"
Ryou: (drops him)
Yami Bakura: (falls) Ow!
Ryou-Ran: Shall we go on with the ficcie?
Marik: Yes, yes, yeeeeeees!
Ryou-Ran: Who's going to do the disclaimer?
Marik: Me, me! (summons disclaimer with his Millennium Rod) Ryou-Ran does not own Yu-Gi-Oh!
Ryou-Ran: No, but I really want to own Ryou! (hugs Ryou)
Ryou: OO"
Power of Darkness, power of...
It was late at night. The boys were asleep in Ryou's room, Téa was asleep in the living and Mr Bakura was snoring incredibly in his own room. The two Yamis present were awake.
Yami was exited to be in Egypt again. This was the country where he was born, where he had ruled and where he had died. He sat inside his soul room and played with his Puzzle. He held it upside-down. It looked just like the piramids outside.
Yami Bakura was having a bit of a problem. He paced up and down through his soul room. He was having too much energy. But where did that energy come from? It had something familiar, but he could not recall it. And he had problems with the Millennium Ring too. In the afternoon Ryou had gone outside to pee, and Yami Bakura had tried to take over, but he couldn't. Something had stopped him. Yami Bakura knew it was his own power that had prevented him from taking Ryou over, but he did not know why. He only knew he was very pissed.
"Rise and shine, sleepyheads!"a loud voice shouted early in the morning. Mr Bakura opened the curtains and allowed the light of the sun to flow into the room. It shone on the faces of the sleepy boys. "Aaaaw, I was having such a good dream!"Joey whined. "About hotdogs and things..." Yugi got up. "What time is i-oooooaaaaaaah..."he yawned. Ryou stuck a spiderweb of a head up and looked at a clock. "Five-thirty."he said. Tristan covered his head with his blanket. "Five-thirty? My god! That's so early!"he groaned. Mr Bakura laughed out loud when the boys reluctantly got up and went to the bathroom to wash themselves and get dressed.
"Why did we have to get up so early?"Joey muttered, while splattering water in his face. "It's short day, Joey."Ryou, who was combing his hair, answered. Yugi had taken the Puzzle off and hung it around his neck again. "What are we going to do today, Bakura-Kun?"he asked. Ryou made a ponytail too, just like his father. "I don't know. DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD! WHAT DO YOU PLAN ON DOING TODAAAAAY?!"he yelled. Tristan stuck two fingers in his ears. "I've found an ancient grave yesterday. I haven't been able to check it out yet, so we can do that today."Mr Bakura, who had been standing right on the other side of the door, answered.
Yami Bakura was alarmed. A grave? Could it be his... No, such coincidence could just not be possible. Unless fate had brought him to Egypt...
The people quickly had breakfast and then went by jeep to the place where Mr Bakura had been digging. "Ouch, you're sitting on me!"Joey groaned. They were all stuffed into one little jeep. "My legs are cramped!"Yugi cried. "Ow, that's my arm! OW!"Ryou uttered. Mr Bakura had trouble keeping the jeep under control with so many people sitting in it. After a ten minutes drive they had arrived on their destination. The gang more or less tumbled out of the jeep. Joey kissed the ground. "I'm so glad I'm back on earth again... aech! Sand in my mouth!"he said. Mr Bakura walked to a small tent. The rest followed him. Ryou's father cleaned the tent up and stuffed it into a bag. He revealed a big hole in the ground. There seemed to be nothing special about it.
Yami Bakura was sitting on the floor in his soul room. He could feel the hairs in his neck stand upstraight. He knew the energy came from the grave. He wanted to know what was going on.
"What's so special about this hole?"Tristan asked. Mr Bakura stuck up a finger. "It has been covered with sand a bit."he said. "Let me brush it away and I'll show it. Ryou, can you pass me the broom, please." He swept some dust and sand away. Something white appeared. It looked like... "A bone!"Joey shrieked, jumped back and accidentally banged Téa upside-down. Mr Bakura looked at him with sparkling eyes. "Don't worry, the guy is dead. He can't hurt you."he chuckled. Joey panted. "That's the problem!"he yelled in Yugi's ear.
They heard somebody pant and saw Ryou was trying to carry a heavy bag with tools over to them. Tristan went to help him, after sending Joey a look full of evil amusement. Together he and Ryou carried the bag over to Ryou's father. Mr Bakura took a closer look to the bone he saw. "It appears to be a piece of a knee."he said. "Can you give a little shovel, Ryou?" He and Ryou scraped the sand away and cleaned the bones, while the others removed sand, gave them tools and watched.
After two hours they took a break. Joey was drinking coffee and was feeling hot. They were all sweaty, exept for Mr Bakura, who did not seem to suffer from the heat at all. Ryou was forced to wear long-sleeved shirts because his pale skin would burn easily in the hot sun. He had the advantage of his white hair reflecting the light of the sun, so his head stayed cool. "Oh, this is killing me!"Tristan sighed. "It is fun, but it's also killing me!" He slammed a can of cold Domino cola down his throat. Yugi was sitting in the shadow of a palm-tree. "Hey, I can see someone coming."Téa suddenly said. They saw a big cloud of dust coming in their direction. "It's a motorcycle."Ryou said. "Marik."Yugi added. The gang leapt up to greet him. Marik took his helmet off. "Hi!"he said. "I wondered how everything was going." He did not seem to suffer from the heat either. "Everything's okay, we're just a little hot."Tristan said. "Hot?"Marik asked. "I find it relatively cool today." He laughed as everybody stared at him in surprise.
After the break they continued their work on the grave, Marik gave them a hand. He, Mr Bakura and Ryou slowly managed to completely clean the skeleton. The others were too tired to work and were just lying in the sun. Ryou came to join them after a while.
"Oh, look, this guy did not have such a good ending!"Mr Bakura's voice suddenly came. The members of the gang rushed over to him as fast as they could. The skeleton was now completely revealed. There were golden rings around the bony fingers and golden bracelets around the ankles and wrists. An arrow stuck out from between the ribs. A few plucks of white hair were still attached to the skull.
Yami Bakura was looking at... himself. The skeleton in that grave was his own. A dark power seemed to radiate from the skeleton. It drilled itself a way through Yami Bakura's skull and made him scream out.
Ryou suddenly saw everything get black in front of his eyes. He felt a pang in the head. He let out a gasp, but camouflaged it as a cough. Nobody noticed.
Yami Bakura was flat on his back on the floor of his soul room. He could feel the power of darkness enter his soul. The Ring on his chest was glowing a bright, golden light. His eyes bulged. He did not know if his spiritual body was able to deal with so much power.
Ryou was in pain. His face was covered in sweat and he was trembling. He tried very hard not to groan. His cheeks had an alarming red color.
Suddenly the gang heard a moan and a slump behind them. When they spun around Ryou was lying in the sand. His hair had gone loose and covered his face. "Ryou!"Mr Bakura cried. He brushed the hair away from the face of his son. He looked at Ryou's red cheeks and lay a hand on Ryou's forehead. "I think he's got an overheat."he said. He picked him up and lay him down underneath a tree. Yugi poured cold water into Ryou's half opened mouth. Ryou did not swallow.
Marik was having his suspicions. Ryou could not have an overheat because he had been completely fit seconds before he collapsed. And his Rod picked up a strange power... a dark power he did not know, coming from Ryou's chest. The others turned away to place the tent above the grave again. Marik knelt down besides Ryou and pulled the collar of Ryou's shirt down. He saw a brown cord. When he pulled it he saw the Millennium Ring. It was glowing a golden light.
Marik did not know what was going on, be he did know it was wrong. The Spirit of the Millennium Ring had to do something with it.
Yami Bakura saw Marik was holding the cord the Ring was attached to. He did not like him do that, he knew Marik knew his weaknesses. So he wanted to "influence" Marik's thoughts so he would let go of the Ring. He prepared to use just a bit of his powers.
"WOOOAAAH!"Marik suddenly screamed and flew ten feet back. An enormous jolt of energy had hit him. He rolled over the ground until he banged into Tristan's legs. Tristan hauled him to his feet. "What's your problem, Marik?"he angrily asked. Marik looked a little crossed-eyed, but quickly recovered. "The Ring... I touched it..."he weakly said. He could not remeber anything of what he had thought before. He only remembered the Ring had given him quite a blow.
"Come on, kid!"Mr Bakura bellowed. "Do you think a necklace can give you a shock? There's going to be a big thunderstorm tonight, perhaps it was just static electricity!" Marik nodded, but still had his doubts. He glared at the Ring that had stopped glowing and was lying innocently on Ryou's chest.
Yami Bakura looked at Marik in amazement. He had used just a fraction of his powers. Not even one percent, but it had sent Marik flying. He could not believe his own eyes.
Suddenly a sharp pain cut through his head and made him drop to his knees. He did not know what was going on, he did not understand. His power had increased, but it hurt him. And it did not obly hurt him, it hurted his Hikari too.
Ryou moaned and clutched with his hands at the fabric of his shirt.
So far chapter two.
To Vejita girl: You know, I write "Marik" in stead of "Malik" for three reasons:
As far as I know the Japanese name of the Yami is "Yami no Malik" and not "Marik". I can't help it, I always stick to the names used in the Dutch version of YGO A boy named Malik stalked me some years ago and I have vowed to never use that name for people or characters I like. And I like Marik.
I hope this explains why well enough.
Marik: I got a part, I got a pahart!
Yami Bakura: And you got a jolt, you got a joholt!
Marik: I hate you.
Yami Bakura: I hate you too.
Marik: Then we hate eachother! Isn't that good of us? (slaps arm around Yami Bakura's shoulders)
