Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or Yu-Gi-Oh! So don't sue me. Authoress Notes: Yeah, Malik's always a little late. But he couldn't really help Ryou at that point cause he was to stunned at seeing Bakura again...so I let the resident Bish get hurt...Damn me.. Hospitals
There was a loud crash from the other side of the room, and Malik grumbled as he rose from his bed, wondering just what was going on. He whiped the sleep from his eye's and waited for the blurriness to subside.
Ryou was amazed, how had Bakura managed to turn things around so quickly?! Now he was not the one in control, the one banging his others head against the window, but instead he found his own head dangling out the window of his second story dorm room. His others hands pressed firmly around his neck and his air supply slowly deminishing. "Yami!" He glared his voice strained from his others hold "What did you do to her!?" Bakura chuckled at his other half, "Funny, your the one's who's life's in danger at the moment and all you can think of is her. Such a pitful creature." He chuckled his eye's curtained by the long bangs of his face he looked sinister, almost scary. "Just so you know, I can't tell you. But kitty had an accident similar to the one your about to have." He chuckled and Ryou noticed now, just how far he had been pushed. Far enough to where if Bakura let go, he was going to fall. "No! Yami! Please! Don't let go! MALIK! MALIK! WAKE UP!" He began to kick, trying to push himself back up and at the same time escape his other's hold, all the while Bakura had an almost demonic look of glee upon his face. "Poor Hikari, nothing will help you now."
A scream was the thing that fully woke Malik up as he sprung from the bed and noticed a white haired figure standing near the window, at first glance it was Ryou, but then he quickly relized it wasn't, just as he let something drop from the window. THen turned to face the blonde haired egyptain. He looked just like Ryou. Except, he his hair was slightly more jagged and messy, his eye's were the same color, but the gentleness of his roomate's eye's had faded into something more malicious, though still the same chocolate color, he wore a bit of eye liner as well as he looked to Malik and narrowed his eyes. Malik's own eye's were wide with what one might see as Terror. "Your..." But he never finished as Bakura slammed his fist against the back of his neck and Malik fell to the floor.
Ryou groaned as he looked around, and felt the grass against his back. His head was throbbing and it hurt him to breath. He felt numb and try as he might he couldn't will himself to get up. That ambulance, what if she was badly hurt, Or she was dead? No he wouldn't let that happen again. This time, if it happened there would be not coming back. No wishes on the millenium puzzle. He coughed something stuck in his throat. He felt his face grow warm and wet. He was so tired, and numb that he didn't even relize he was crying. He opened his eye's again, as the blur subsided he saw someone standing above him. A teenager, his black hair sticking up to the point that it seemed almost impossible, a white starburst in the center a bandana under his bangs, red eye's narrowed slightly and he seemed bored. "Are you hurt?" He asked simply. "Or allow me to rephrase that, can you get up?"
Hiei frowned at the older man laying on the grass before him. Koenma had demanded that he keep and eye on him outside the case. Kurama had the idea that he had more to do with the girl's cheating death than anyone else that would have died in that scenario. The man looked to him with half lidded brown eye's and nodded absently to him. "Then you can't." He knelt over and grabbed the mans arm hoisting him up before moving that hand to support his waist. The man groaned slightly in discomfort but then placed an arm on Hiei's shoulder to maintain balance and they began walking, as the man limped slightly on his right leg, the other barely able to support his weight.
Kurama sat on the other side of the darkened waiting room, his mother and Pegasus sat across from him and he simply crossed his legs and closed his eye's. It was strange. He was in his pajama's to say the least of how odd the situation seemed. He felt like elsewhere something bad happened as well. His mother said nothing just cast concerned glances at Pegasus every few moments until finally she placed a hand on his shoulders. "I think everything will be just fine. She might have to stay here for a while, but she won't..." She looked unsure of how to find a way to say these words without in some way hurting him. He growled slightly "She won't die. Go ahead, it's not as if those words are something I'm not used to." He stood up and she looked as though she were about to spout words of apology. "Death is something I'm very familiar with Shiori and you need not say anything to make me feel better. It's just the way things are." With this he walked out of the waiting room. His mother sat down. A look on her face that said she was about to cry when he stood up himself.
Pegasus watched the cars passing from outside the hospital doors but his gaze quickly turned to his feet as his vision blured and he fought back tears. The doors opened again Shuiichi stepped out as walked over to him sitting down beside the older man. Pegasus sighed and turned his head away. "I know I seemed rough, but I don't want pity." He growled slightly. Shuiichi chuckled "Then you won't get pity." Pegasus felt his eye's widen and he turned to look at the younger teen. "I know how you feel." He said calmly "When mother was sick, I would have done anything to help her. I was even willing to give up my own life." Suddenly his gaze turned to the street as a short boy walked towards them, and Pegasus noted the figure he was leading along.
Kurama felt his eye's widen. It was Hiei, carrying the limp form of Ryou Bakura he frowned trying to make it seem as though, this was all Kurama's fault. "What! Hiei! What happened?" The fire demon growled slightly "The human got pushed out of his window." He muttered and Kurama looked slightly shocked as the older man mumbled something in his hazy state of mind. "Is she....is she alright...please...let her be alright. Before his balance broke. His knees gave way and he fell limply against Hiei's side. Pegsus jumped up from his spot and caught the boy before he could hit the ground and examined his current state. "We need to get him inside, to a doctor quickly." Kurama nodded as Pegasus picked up the smaller boy and they ran inside.
Karasu blinked and opened his eye's head pounding slightly as he rose. Ruffled hair and all and looked to Malik who was sitting on his bed, frowning. "My don't you look like death warmed over." Karasu glared at his blonde haired lover and slowly rose. His head was pouding. "Well your not exactly miss Mary sunshine either Malik." He muttered as he rose up. "Yeah but you weren't bludgeoned on the head by someone who shoved your best friend out a window." "No I was just confronted by that weird girl from the antique shop..." He froze for a minute "Who got pushed out a window!?"

"Ryou." Malik replied nocholantly as though this sort of thing happened everyday. "Well your taking it well." He muttered as he walked over to his dresser pulling out a clean shirt and a pair of comfortable blue jeans. "Yeah. He wasn't there this morning. I called the hospital. Room 302." Karasu sighed.

"No what about you reason for sleeping on the floor?" He scoffed at the black haired man. "The girl from the antique store right? What about her." "Well.." He frowned slightly a twinge of something in the corner of his mind. A smirk, and a name that seemed to fuel a hatred and a strange lust in him that seemed almost to familiar. 'Youko Kurama' He growled slightly. "She said that I would remember my true self....but I must not become what I once was....whatever that means." Malik looked deep in thought for a few moments before breaking the almost intelligent moment by chucking a pillow at the raven haired man's head. "Then I guess we should just go talk to her, ourselves." He froze for a second. "Which brings me to the ironic part. She's in the hopsital as well."

Urm...yeah..anyways, next chapter brings up Seto again. He visits the house where Danielle and pegasus used to live, only to see what would have happened if Ryou had not made his wish. Confused and dissoriented, a certain former spirit detective hunting down our favorite psychic make's his appearance. I'll give you a cookie if you can guess who it is
