*sighs melodramatically* I wish you people would R&R.I really want to know
whether I'm good at writing or not, & what my strengths & weaknesses are as
a writer, since I want to do it as I career, so please let me know what you
think.
Thanks go to Shaami this time for a review & a very nice one it was too. I really had no intention of writing this & no planning has gone into it, unlike my Resident Evil fics, so I'm glad you like it so far & I'm glad my poor attempt at fluff wasn't too bad.
Ryou looked around, noting the looks of pure shock on the faces of Yugi & the others, he had tried to dissuade them from listening in, but had failed, they were too curious. "Yami & Bakura? No way." Joey said, clearly still in shock after what they had just heard. "A Pharaoh & a tomb robber? It's impossible; it has to be some kind of trick. Besides, my Yami isn't gay." Tea added afterwards. "Don't be so stupid Tea. It's blatantly obvious that they are both 'gay' & Yami has never & will never be yours." Ryou said, shocking everyone with his harsh tone. "Do you know something we don't Ryou?" Malik asked bluntly. "Perhaps, but ask Yami said, it isn't any of your business. You should leave them alone, they need some privacy, their past doesn't concern you." Ryou replied, his voice still holding a slight harshness. He had known for a while now, having seen Bakura's memories through his dreams, as Bakura was unable to keep a block up when he slept, though he had never told Bakura what he had seen, knowing he would be angry & embarrassed. Ryou sighed, thinking about when he had received the ring, his first meeting with Bakura had been pleasant, then, only a year later, Bakura had changed & became angry & horrible, at the time, Ryou hadn't known the cause, except that it had something to do with his memories, Bakura had told him that much when Ryou had found him crying in his soul room, that was the last time he had seen the real Bakura. Then, a few weeks ago, Bakura had started having dreams about his past, dreams Ryou had also seen, finally letting Ryou know why he had changed. It had been a relief for him, as he had always kept the ring & Bakura in the hopes he would get his friend back & with these new facts, it had made everything worthwhile. Ryou jumped slightly as he felt a hand placed on his shoulder, he looked up to see Malik looking at him, almost concerned. "You phased out, are you okay?" Malik asked in a concerned tone, though Ryou saw straight through the façade, knowing Malik was only asking because he wanted answers from him, he had learnt enough from Bakura to know how to read people's intentions, so he simply nodded & turned to leave. A familiar voice halted him. "We want to talk to you Ryou." He turned to see the door to Yami's room open, with Bakura looking at him expectantly. Ryou looked confusedly at him, but followed his request to enter the room nonetheless. Bakura closed the door firmly, after giving death glares to everyone stood outside. "You know everything I do, right?" Ryou shook his head. "I've only seen your dreams, so I knew about the two of you, but I only saw, I don't know your past." "Do you know about Ankhenbamaat & Merenra?" Bakura asked, trying to be tactful. Ryou hesitated slightly, before nodding. "Yes, I saw them & Nef & Messheps." "Do you know." Saharen started to ask, but was cut off. "Yes, I know." Ryou replied, knowing the question but not wanting the group in the hall to know. He saw Bakura's relieved look, though he wasn't sure whether it was because of his answer, or because he had stopped the question from being completed. "I think we should go to our's, so we can talk freely, rather then having those idiots listening in, it's either that or I set my Man-Eater Bug on them." Bakura said in perfect seriousness. Ryou was surprised to see Yami smirk & almost tell Bakura to carry out his threat. Seeming to sense Ryou's shock, Yami looked at him & whispered, "They're Yugi's friends, not mine & if the bug wants to eat Tea, it's fine with me." Bakura laughed at this & pulled out the card in question, waving it & waiting for Yami to respond. Yami smirked again, but then looked serious & somewhat disappointed. "Better not, Yugi has a crush on her & he is my aibou, so I wouldn't want to hurt him." Bakura nodded, also looking disappointed, this caused Ryou to smile slightly, he knew how much Bakura wanted to kill Tea, but had always stopped himself, thinking it would hurt Yami. Bakura made his way to the door & then stopped suddenly, both Ryou & Yami looked at him questioningly, a smile rose on Bakura's face as he pulled out another card. "If I can't set my Man-Eater Bug on them, I can at least stop them from following us." He then turned the card to face them & Ryou saw it was the Chain Energy card, he nodded slightly, remembering the previous time the card had been used. He saw Yami smirking & realised they were going to say some false information before using the card & heading to his house. "Maybe we should go to the park instead?" Bakura suggested, wearing the same smirk as Yami. "That's a really good idea Nub, it'll be sunset soon & sitting by the lake would be so romantic." Yami put on his best 'love-struck schoolgirl' impression & the three had a hard time stopping themselves from laughing. "That sounds quite lovely. Shall we go then, before it gets too dark?" Ryou replied, surprising himself & the two yami's that he was as good at the 'game' as they were. Bakura gave him a 'thumbs-up' before exiting the room, Ryou couldn't help but smile, having made his yami proud of him for the first time ever. Ryou & Yami stood back as Bakura used Chain Energy & then followed him out of the Game Shop & back to the house he shared with Bakura, for once thankful that his father would not be home.
Bakura tapped his foot impatiently, while Ryou opened the front door to their home, he was watching for Yugi, his friends or Malik. He heard the door opened & quickly went inside, closing the door after the others & moving into the living room. "Hmm.say, do we get to have some 'alone-time' after this?" Yami asked as he walked in. Any reply Bakura may have given was cut short by the phone ringing. "Don't answer it Ryou, it's probably Pharaoh's brat." Bakura ordered. "Pharaoh's brat? You really should be nicer to my aibou Nub." Yami said in mock disgust whilst placing his hand on his forehead in a melodramatic pose. "I think it's a compliment to him, being associated to the ruler of Egypt." Bakura replied in a snotty voice, before bowing mockingly, & adding, "Though if the great Pharaoh disapproves then I shall halt the usage of that title." Yami simply smiled at the gesture, which only yesterday would have angered him, this made Bakura smile in response, glad that there was no longer any hate between them & that their relationship was returning to how it had been five millennia before. He sat down next to his lover & looked at his hikari. "First off, well done back there, I'm pleasantly surprised that you managed to join in with us & that you managed to be something other then polite. Next, is onto the questioning. You know you're the reincarnation of my brother An?" Ryou nodded. "I guessed it was the case from your dreams & how you acted towards me, but I don't remember anything from that time." "Hmm.you think we could use the items to show him some of his past & awaken his memories? Bakura asked his lover in a thoughtful manner. Yami shrugged, a gesture not often used by him. "I don't know, but there's no reason not to try it." "What do you think? Want to give it a try?" Bakura asked encouragingly. Ryou looked at them both, a worried look etched on his face. "I don't know. After all, neither of you know what you're doing & Shadow Magic is dangerous." "Don't be so weak Hikari, aren't you curious?" Bakura spat, though softening his tone as he went along. "Of course I'm curious, I just don't exactly want my soul being shredded & sent to the Shadow Realm. It would be foolish not to be worried." Ryou replied, slightly flustered. Yami smirked. "It isn't as if I don't know anything, nor would I be the one doing it, you see, my sister gave me one of the Shadow Monsters as a guardian, the Dark Magician will be helping us & he knows a lot about Shadow Magic." Ryou looked at him sceptically, but knew he was serious & finally he sighed & relented. "Fine, but if I end up dead, I'm coming back to haunt you both & I'll make sure you never have any intimate time together ever again." Bakura looked shocked for a moment & then smiled. "You're learning Hikari. Maybe there's hope for you yet." Ryou smiled in response & looked at Yami, Bakura followed-suit & waited for instructions. "Join hands & then focus on the items, we'll go to the Shadow Realm & Dark Magician will be there to guide us." Yami said finally. The three joined hands & the items began to glow, with a bright flash, the three boys vanished from the room.
I know I said I'd try not to bash Tea, but I couldn't help it, sorry if anyone likes her, I'll try not to do it again. Lots of OOC behaviour in this chapter, I hope it didn't spoil it for anyone.
Couldn't resist using the Man-Eater Bug & Chain Energy since the chapter turned out like that, I really liked the whole using Shadow Powers to bring the cards to life thing, I thought it was really funny & is one of the main reasons I like Bakura so much. So much to being original, huh?
Shadow Monsters is obviously the duel monsters, I thought they needed a different name, as they wouldn't have been referred to as duel monsters in the past as it is the name Pegasus gave them when he made the cards & the game.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed, please review & let me know what you think, even if it's a flame, I really don't mind, I just want to know what you guys think. C ya!
