Disclaimer: WolfKeeper989 does not own YuGiOh! Or any of its characters. I do not own "Breaking the Habit" by Linkin Park. Just the idea for the songfic.

First of all, I must say: GO YUGI! GO YUGI! GO YUGI! GO YUGI! GO MARIK (THE GOOD ONE)! GO MARIK! GO MARIK! GO MARIK! runs around house doing happy dance Ok, now that's done, I am writing this little song fic in honor of Yugi and Marik beating evil Marik's $$!! This one is written to "Breaking the Habit" by Linkin Park. This is about good Marik's struggle with his dark Yami. Evil Marik will be called Malik in this fic.

Marik is only a floating eye on Malik's side of the field but that didn't mean he wasn't thinking. He was wondering how he got himself into this mess. (music starts)

Memories concern


Like opening the wound


I'm picking me apart again


You all assume


I'm safer in my room


Unless I try to start again

"Because of my blind hatred and jealousy. He was made." Marik knew he must help his Pharaoh or die trying.

[Chorus]


I don't want to be the one


Who battles always choose


Cuz inside I realize


That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for


Or why I have to scream


I don't know why I instigate


And say what I don't mean


I don't know how I got this way


I know it's not alright


So I'm breaking the habit


I'm breaking the habit tonight

He watched helplessly as the Pharaoh's attempts and free him and ridding the world of his darker half. He felt his insides writhe with guilt. But he still hoped that the Pharaoh would and give him a second chance at a life. But in case he didn't he wanted to rid himself of his guilt. He took hold of Tea's body one last time to apologize to Yugi's friend for all the trouble he caused. They didn't openly accepted his apology but he didn't care, he hadn't expect them to. He gave Tea her body back.

Cultured my cure


I tightly lock the door


I try to catch my breath again


I hurt much more


Than anytime before


I have no options left again

Then he sees his ever-faithful Odeon walk onto the field and try to persuade him to fight his other half.

I don't want to be the one


Who battles always choose


Cuz inside I realize


That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for


Or why I have to scream


I don't know why I instigate


And say what I don't mean


I don't know how I got this way


I'll never be alright


So, I'm breaking the habit


I'm breaking the habit tonight

The pharaoh had his darker half on the ropes but stopped his attack when his darker half reminded him by destroying him he would destroy Marik. Marik found the strength to overcome his darker half in his brother's words. He began to fight for control again.

I'll paint it on the walls


Cuz I'm the one that falls


I'll never fight again


And this is how it ends

He won but he knew wouldn't keep control of him for long so he hastily shouted to the Pharaoh,

"Hurry destroy Ra and my darker half before he regains control!"

"No!" screamed the darker half.

"We can't destroy him it might hurt Marik." reasoned the pharaoh's friend Yugi.

"Please, you must," Marik insisted, "this might be the only way to get my body back."

The pharaoh granted his request and attacked. He was surrounded by black but then there was a light he went towards. He was instantly enveloped in smoke. When the smoke cleared he realized that the tides had turned and his dark Yami was in his earlier position. He knew what he had to do...

I don't know what's worth fighting for


Or why I have to scream


But now I have some clarity


to show you what I mean


I don't know how I got this way


I'll never be alright


So, I'm breaking the habit


I'm breaking the habit


I'm breaking the habit tonight

Ignoring the rants and insists from his darker half he forfeit the duel to the Pharaoh sending the last of his Yami to the shadow realm. Now he could finally start over...
