*********

A figure accustomed to the night was once again walking its lonely path. The demon stopped his march. His face now upturned while the coarse silver hair pooled around his shoulders. His face was scrunched in a questioning manner. He seemed to be asking the stars for the answer to his problem. Yet the florescent moon kept the stars from doing so. Bakura looks down once again his eyes showing emotions he was use to ignoring. Abruptly Bakura turns his head forward now with his face set with a determined look. He begins to walk down the path but now with a new found determination locked in his soul.

***Ryous house (Yugis on the phone)

The house is filled with mummers. A soft voice is having some sort of conversation. The voice seems to be having problems convincing some one of something.

"I'm fine Yugi, really." A British voice stated. "No you're not Ryou. I'm your friend I know these things." Yugi says. "Why do you think something is wrong?" Ryou quietly asks. "Ryou your eyes tell everything. You seem hurt, and you constantly rub your arm when you're in a predicament. You're probably doing it now." Yugi declared.
He was right. At that moment Ryou was rubbing his arm. For a few moments Ryou just stared at his arm while his other arm lay on top of the scars that littered the ashen colored skin. Ryou then sighed into the receiver. "Your right Yugi, something is wrong. Yugi don't worry though I'm fine I just don't want to talk about it right now." Then a sigh was heard on the other side of the line. "Ryou, don't hurt yourself. Just know that I'm here when you're ready to talk." Yugi spoke, and then there was a tone heard to signify that one had hung up.
Ryou sighed then hung up as well. Ryou then slid down the wall until he was sitting on the floor. Ryou then placed his head in his hands, then the angel proceeded to cry his sorrows to the heavenly figures that had forgot to protect him. Then a thought hit him full force. His life was just a waste. He only worried Yugi, and the one he loved didn't even give him a fleeting glance. Why should he grace the world with his bothersome figure any longer? Ryou then lifted his head with the tears still streaming down his face and a plan to make everyone's lives easier and he would give up his life in the process.
Ryou now with determination oozing out of every fiber within him stood shakily, and began a walk to sweet surrender with the tears now long gone. He then turned to the stairs and took one stair at a time. Each step bringing him closer and closer to the one thing he thought would ease everyone's worries.
The higher he went the more the stairs seemed to be encased in shadow. The shadows laughed at him and the pitiful excuse that life seemed to be. Still higher he went though. One shaky step after another and he so close to the top. Then he was finally there, but he took a detour to his room for a moment.
He took a look around and found what he was looking for. A note-book and a pen, he then walked to the bathroom and began to scribble a note to whoever found him. As he wrote tears began to form again. The pain was already immense and he refused to let the tears fall. As the letter came to a close one tear fell on the inky surface. As Ryou closed the letter he let the pain take hold of him as he prepared for his last few moments of life.

****Back to Bakura

A jolt of pain hit Bakura and he fell to the ground clutching his head. The ring around his neck began to glow a silver color. The pain Bakura felt was not his own. The pain was coming from the bond that the ring made. The pain he felt was Ryou's own pain. Then Bakura began to see what Ryou was seeing. He saw Ryous wrist with a blade rasied above it. With a gasp Bakura shook his head of the image. The pain was immense but Bakura stood none the less. He then began to run as fast as he could toward the house he and Ryou shared with one world going threw the link and it made him run all the faster.

/Ryou!/

****Ryou

Ryou sat in the middle of the pasty colored bathroom with his ever trusty razor bade in his hand. The note he wrote (hey that rhymes. sorry on with the story.) lay discarded in the corner of the bathroom. At the moment Ryou had the razor blade poised above his other wrist staring at it with tears in his eyes. He seemed to be lost in though as he stared at the blade. The tears finally fell adding to the many he had already cried that night, the tears leaving long wet tracks to guide the other tears that were soon to follow. Then one tear fell on Ryous arm and that seemed to send all or Ryous pain to the brink. Then the last thing Ryou expected happened. He heard his name screamed in anguish over the link he and Bakura shared.
Ryous eyes went wide as he heard his name. Then he looked at the blade he held above his wrist and then all the pain came back as he lowered the blade to his wrist.

****Bakura

Bakura ran through the crowed streets as fast as he could. Time seemed to slow down at the exact moment Bakura wanted it to speed up. The street lights and their eerie glow seemed to follow Bakura and pushing him to go faster. Then he saw it, the front door of the house. The door that always seemed to laugh at him now was his only image of hope.
He ran to the door and opened it, only to find that it was locked. He searched for the key Ryou gave to him for emergencies, and right now classified as an emergency. Bakura found the key in his pocket and shoved it in the key hole and slammed open the door. Then Bakura ran up the stair case in hopes that he would find Ryou in time.

****Ryou

"This is it" Ryou thought as he lowered the blade in hope that he would soon end his life with one quick swipe of the blade, but it would never happen because at the exact time that Ryou lowered the blade to his skin the bathroom door burst open and he was tackled to the ground with the razor blade slipping out of reach.

****Normal P.O.V.

"What do you think your doing!!" an enraged Bakura screamed. "Leave me alone Bakura and let me die in peace!" a sobbing Ryou bawled. "Your not going to die tonight abiou" (*) Bakura stated softly. "No, no let me go!" Ryou said while his voice began to get softer.
By this time Bakura had gathered Ryou in his arms and was rocking him back and forth while he pulled his fingers through his hair as he whispered in his ear. Ryous sobs soon turned into hiccups. Bakura then picked him up and walked into the living room and sat down on the couch with Ryou still in his lap. "Now, Ryou are you going to tell me why you tried to kill yourself." Bakura said while he wiped away a few stray tears from Ryous eyes. Ryou then looked him in the eye as he also began to talk. "As soon as you tell me why you stopped me from doing so." Ryou stated "That's easy" Bakura said "It's because I love you and I couldn't let you die before I told you that."
For a second time that night Ryous eyes widened.
