HIYA EVERYBODY! A big hug to all my reviewers. I still don't have 15 reviews but that's all right I'm happy anyway! ^_^
Cat eyes: Thanks for the review! [Hugs her best friend] YOU'RE SO NICE! [Chibi water works] I have nice friends!
Una1: Thank you for the wonderful review! I'm glad I changed your mind about Bakura. Now I don't know if he is truly like that, but there's a fact that at one point in Kura-chan's life when he was no different than Ryou. ^^ I have this thing with these kinds of characters. Even if they seem like 'one-dimensional sadists' I love giving them depth. I usually do this when I watch the show. There are so many episodes where it just screams 'HELLO! MAYBE I'M NOT SO EVIL!!!!!' ^^U I am strange but still. I'm glad I change your perspective on him.
Actually, you changed my perspective on Yami (O_O) yeah I know. I never told many people this, but deep down I detested Yami for some odd reason. BUT!!!!!!!! You changed my perspective! You are a truly gifted person I give you that! ^o^ Oh so many things I can do now! Actually, this chapter is dedicated to you! [Hugs Una1] THANK YOU FOR CHANGING MY PERSPECTIVE ON YAMI!!! Even though I had no reason to truly hate him, just think of kind of like Bakura's hate for Yami. He only hates Yami for what his (Yami's) father did to his village. I'm not quite sure if this fact is correct but hey, that's what I think. Thank you so much!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
blackcat212: Thanks for the review. ANOTHER FRIEND! ^o^ I feel so love!

Bakura: Disclaimer! Cower in its fear you pathetic mortal!!!!!!! Mawhahahahaha!!!!!!
Kyoko: I'm not doing the disclaimer. [Gets an idea] Yami can do it! He's a friend now!
Yami: Ok. Kyoko-san dose not own Yugioh. So don't try to sue her because all actually owns is eight issues of Shonen Jump.
Kyoko: They can't have them. mine. [Gets possessive]
Yami: 0.0U
Bakura: ---____--- welcome to my every day life.
Zoku: Your part of the group now.
Yami: May Ra help me.
******NOTES******
In the last chapter I really screwed up. The death of Bakura's hometown was not like that. But I wont tell you guys for fear of spoilers. I know I'm evil, but really. It takes out the fun. But if 4kids doesn't show the ancient Egypt arc, then I'll tell you. if you don't know. If you do. like Kage. GOOD FOR YOU! ^_^ I congratulate you!
Oh yes. Ryou might be a bit OOC in this chappy. I was hyper when I wrote it.
So. Enjoy! :P

The Seven Curses of Egypt
Chapter two
("If life gives you lemons, squirt them in peoples eyes!" ~ Neo Chick after we got off a chat with two of our friends. Gave us a headache.)
This chapter is dedicated to Una1
~*~*~*~
***Kame game shop, Domino City***
~~Yugi's POV~~
"Yugi!"
There's grandpa again. I swear if he asks me to do another chore I'll drop dead. That's all I've done today, clean, clean and clean!
\Don't forget about organizing!!!! I swear I'll be and old man by the time I'm done! NO pun intended!!! \ Yami added. I chuckle at that. Yami's down in the game shop, organizing the card rack for the tenth time today. I think he's sick of it, don't you?
"Yugi!"
"Coming grandpa!" I sigh and get off my bed. You never appreciate doing nothing and being bored till you have to do chores.
\Too true Yugi. Too true. \
I enter the game shop too see grandpa holding the mail.
"Bill. bill. bill. the national geographic. bill. and a letter for you Yugi. All the way from Egypt. Must be from Bakura or that freaky blond friend of yours." Yami snickered at this.
Grandpa handed me the letter. I sat at the table and opened the letter.
"Well, read it Yugi! I want to know what the tomb robber has been. oops."
You see grandpa knows about Yami, but not about Yami Bakura. I don't know how much longer we can keep it a secret. It's getting extremely hard not to spill.
"It's Bakura's nickname. We keep calling him that because. Because. We went to some fortune-teller and she said Bakura was a tomb robber in his past life! Not like he believed it anyway but we like to bug him about it!" I say quickly. I don't think I can keep this up.
\Nice one Yugi. I don't want to be explaining the whole Yami Bakura thing to grandpa. It was hard enough to get him to understand that I'm older than him. \
"Right. Anyway, read the letter Yugi!" Grandpa said.
"Ok. 'Dear Yugi,
This is Bakura's Father. I have some horrible news to tell you. Ryou is missing.' "
"What!" Yami gasped. We stared at each other. This is NOT good.
" 'While at the dig Ryou had fainted so I took him back too the hotel. A good friend of his, I think his name is Malik, had stopped by to visit him and said he'd look after Ryou. When I came back Ryou was gone.
There was a note left behind. It said. 'Dad, I'm going back to the dig. Please don't get mad, but I want to find out what happened back there. Don't worry; one of Malik's friends will drive us there. Please don't worry. I'll be fine. Love, Ryou.'
I Just wrote this letter to tell you that Ryou has been missing for three days. Tell all of Ryou's other friends. I tried to contact you, but the line was dead, and I don't know any of his friends' numbers.
I'll keep you updated.
S. Bakura.' "
I was in shock. Bakura has been missing for three days already? What could have happened to him? I wish I could go to Egypt and figure that out.
\I know Yugi. I wish I could as well. \
/Who do you think is behind this? /
\I don't know. It couldn't have been Malik or his Yami. And I doubt Yami Bakura would ether. No one I can think of. I'm sorry Yugi but there's nothing we can do for Bakura. \
/But there HAS to be! There just has to be! /
~*~*~*~
***Egypt, three days before Yugi and Yami received the letter***
~~Third Person POV (A/n: O_O)~~
"PUT ME DOWN! THIS IS NOT FAIR! YOU BETTER PUT ME DOWN NOW!" Ryou screamed as he hit the back of his Yami. He was slung over Bakura's shoulder, legs kicking viciously and arms moving wildly.
Malik and Ishtar watched as the white haired Hikari was thrown, yes THROWN, into the front passenger seat and buckled in. The Hikari tried to unbuckle himself but found his seatbelt was jammed. Poor Ryou. The boy threw his Yami a glare as he sat in the drivers seat. Malik and Ishtar sat in the back seats of the jeep that they 'borrowed'.
"Bakura? Are you ABSOLUTALY sure you know how to drive? I don't want to die before I reach adulthood." Malik said to the already pissed off Yami in the front seat.
Bakura put the key in and turned it. "Hey, if the Brat can do this, so can I."
Ryou glared at this. His Yami couldn't even use the microwave. How many times did he have to tell him to NOT to put ANY metallic things in there. But then 'do not' is not in Bakura's vocabulary. He probably doesn't even know the meaning of it. But before he could say anything about his Yami's comment they were trusted forward.
"Oh! The yami figured out which pedal was the gas pedal. I'll give you an A for figuring it out." Ryou said sarcastically.
Bakura smirked. "I pulled it from your memory banks." He said simply before taking a sharp turn.
Ishtar clutched on the Ryou's seat's headrest and yelled at the top of his lungs. "This is suicide Bakura! Slow down!" He yelled as he clutched the headrest tighter, pulling at some of Ryou's hair in the process. "YOUR MORE INSAIN THAN MY HIKARI!!!"
"OW! Ishtar! Let go! But he has a point Bakura! This is CRAZY!" He yelled.
"WAHOO!!!!!!!!" Malik yelled. He was enjoying this. Ryou and Ishtar glared at him but were soon knocked against there doors when Bakura turned again.
"Bakura! Slow down! This is INSANE! YOU HEAR ME YOU CRAZY YAMI! INSANE! THAT'S SPELT I-N-S-A-N-E!!!!!"
Bakura slams his foot on the brakes. Ishtar fell forwards and Ryou hit his head on the dashboard.
"You know." Bakura said.
"What?" Ryou said nursing his forehead.
"I forgot to buckle myself in." Bakura rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly as Ryou's left eyebrow twitched in irritation. He was going to lose it any minute now. Ryou's face was beginning to turn red; his hands were clenched so tight that his knuckles were white.
"BAKURA." Ryou grabbed a handful of his Yami's hair and yanked, HARD.
"OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *BEEP*"
Ishtar and Malik sat in the back seat with two identical faces that seemed to say. O.Kay
"What are they doing now?" Malik asked as the watched the Bakuras' eyes glaze over.
"Having a mental conversation. And by the way Bakura's flinching, it seems that Ryou is getting his point across. "
Indeed he was. Ryou was smiling and Bakura was twitching.
"You should think better before you piss me off Bakura." Ryou smiled.
Bakura grumbled and started the car again. They drove off at a normal pace.
***Now we are in the desert. somewhere.***
Mumble.
Snore.
Mumble.
Snore.
That's how it has been for the past hour. Ryou, Ishtar and Malik had fallen asleep, leaving Bakura to drive by himself. Ryou was curled up in the front, mumbling and Malik and Ishtar were snoring and mumbling in the back seat.
"Ugh." Bakura said as he drove on.
"Oh well. It's better than having them singing 'found a peanut' and 'the wheels on the bus' or that 'Goldfish jingle (A/n: That yummy snack that smiles back until you bite their heads off!!!)'.
"This silence is actually quite nice. No Ishtar complaining about how his hair is getting messed up. No Malik complaining that he's going to die of starvation. No Ryou nagging about how fast I'm going.
"Why am I talking to myself?"
He had finally gotten the hang of driving and was now on the road some where in the desert. He didn't even know where he was going; only following his little remembered knowledge of the way.
The sun was setting in the west, painting the sky a beautiful display of crimsons, oranges, yellows and golds. Kind of like watercolour paints on a canvas, blending and mixing so perfectly, leaving its elegant colours to take your breath away. The rolling dunes of sand, a mixture of browns, creating the sea and the sun ever so slightly reflexes off of the grains, splashing the sand with hints of rich gold colours. It was such sights he missed so much from his days as a tomb robber.
"Hun. ugh." Ryou groaned as he began to wake up.
"Seems that you're awake." Bakura said, keeping his eyes on the road.
Ryou blinked and rubbed his eyes and gave out a kitten like yawn. "How long have I been asleep?"
"An hour." Bakura replied simply.
Ryou blinked again then nodded. He turned his attention to the road before them. Seeing the sky he sighed.
"My mom used to tell me stories about this place." Ryou said to Bakura.
Bakura slightly turned his head to look at his Hikari. "Really?" he asked.
"Yeah. She said that Egypt is one of the most mysterious and beautiful places on earth. So wild and untamed. yet civilized in a way. It holds you're in a state of awe with its history. No matter how old." Ryou said.
"Those are some pretty meaningful words there Hikari. Yet I guess I have to agree with your mom on this one." Bakura said staring ahead towards the horizon.
"Yeah."
Silence
Snore.
Mumble.
0.0 "Eeeep!!!!!" Ryou squeaked.
--__-- "Not this again." Bakura growled.
Ryou looked like he was about to say something but quickly shut his mouth.
"Ungh." Malik said as his head hit the door. "What's going on? Where's the fire?"
---___---U "Malik." Bakura grumbled.
^^U "Nothing to worry about Malik. You just. startled us that's all." Ryou said sweat dropping.
"Oh. Well. are we there yet?" Malik asked.
"No." Bakura replied.
"Oh. Ok! So. Are we there yet?"
***A little while later***
"Are we there yet?" Malik asked.
"No." Bakura replied.
"Are you sure?" Ishtar asked.
"Yes."
"Are you really sure?" Malik asked.
"Yes"
"Are you really, really sure?" Ishtar asked.
"Yes." Bakura replied getting annoyed.
"Are you really, really, REALLY sure?"
"YES!"
"Oh!" Both said.
"Are you sure?" Malik asked.
Bakura's eyebrow twitched.
"No, no Hikari! You'll drive him nuts if you ask the same thing over and over again. Try some variety. like this! Are you Positive?"
Bakura was banging his head on the steering wheal.
"Oh! I get it! Are you certain Bakura-chan?"
"ARRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
***In Canada.***
The authoress (me) looks up from her fic when she hears the sound of agony.
"ARRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Wow. and to think I just wrote that. cool!"
***Back to our Protagonists (BIG WORD!)***
Silence.
"Hey! Look! Where here!" Ryou points out.
"FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!"
***When they are out of the jeep because Kyoko is way to lazy to type that and plus it's boring :P so ha!***
"So. this is the spot?" Malik asked as they looked at the open doorway.
"Yes. This is the spot." Ryou said as he walked over to them.
Bakura was inspecting the doorway when he slipped and fell down a. hole? What's that doing there?
"Ah shit!" Bakura yelled from the bottom.
Malik, Ishtar and Ryou peered down at the silver haired Yami.
Soon the group was together at the bottom of the hole. It was dark except for the flashlights that Ryou and Malik held. It seemed to be carved out of stone. Cobwebs hung in various spaces, giving the gray tunnel a forbidding look. The shadows crawled across the walls stealthily, and you could hear a faint drip in the distance, echoing quietly across the tunnels. Their foot steps were the only noised that broke the thick silence that hung over them like a veil of evil. watching them.
They came to a break in the path. two doorways with high arches. Over each was a celestial body. over the right was the sun, and over the left was the moon.
"Which way should we go?" Ryou asked, his voice echoing down both pathway.
"Let's split up. We can cover ground easily that way." Ishtar suggested.
"Ok, sounds reasonable. How bout Ryou and I, and Ishtar and Bakura? Sound good?" Malik suggested.
"Fine with me." Ryou said, handing Bakura the flashlight since nether neither him nor Ishtar had one.
"Yup." Ishtar said smiling. or smirking.
While Ryou, Malik and Ishtar discussed a few things; no one paid attention to Bakura. No one noticed the evil, malicious glint in the Yami's eyes. A look that no one has seen in a few years. His eyes were brownish blackish colour with hints of a dried blood colour, so cold and hard. Not that they were before mind you. just more so.
"Ready to go Bakura?" Ishtar asked his 'friend'.
Bakura looked at him and smiled a fake smile. "Yes. Lets go."
"Alright. see you guys in three hours? Alright?" Asked Ryou.
"Sounds good to me." Bakura said with the still fake smile.
"Alright! Ja ne!" Malik said waving cheerily.
As they headed there separate ways, Bakura let his smile turn into a smirk.
||Soon, all these fools shall fall into my trap and will never leave this sanctuary of Darkness. They will soon find out the fate of these people. And by then it will be too late.|| He thought smirking.
"Yo Bakura! Are you going to sit there all day?" Ishtar called.
"Coming!" He said and ran off to catch up with his 'friend'. Soon it will be too late for any of them.
~*~*~*~
DUN, DUN, DUN, DUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So? How was it? Hum? Tell me! ^_^ I want to know! Is Bakura really evil? If not than what's wrong with Baku-chan? I want your opinions. Kage. I think you know. or you don't remember.
Bakura: Ack! Yo made me evil!! You Baka Onna!
Kyoko: HEY!
Yami: You were evil to begin with.
Bakura: Oh yeah XD
Ryou: WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bakura: Don't you say that after you find out your all gonna die?
Zoku: We just did.
Bakura: ???
Zoku: Never mind! Review before this authoress goes mad!
Kyoko: You see the fishes swimming, oh look! The winners grinning! The snack that smiles back! Goldfish!

"ARRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
***In Canada.***
The authoress (me) looks up from her fic when she hears the sound of agony.
"ARRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Wow. and to think I just wrote that. cool!"
***Back to our Protagonists (BIG WORD!)***
Silence.
"Hey! Look! Where here!" Ryou points out.
"FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!"
***When they are out of the jeep because Kyoko is way to lazy to type that and plus it's boring :P so ha!***
"So. this is the spot?" Malik asked as they looked at the open doorway.
"Yes. This is the spot." Ryou said as he walked over to them.
Bakura was inspecting the doorway when he slipped and fell down a. hole? What's that doing there?
"Ah shit!" Bakura yelled from the bottom.
Malik, Ishtar and Ryou peered down at the silver haired Yami.
Soon the group was together at the bottom of the hole. It was dark except for the flashlights that Ryou and Malik held. It seemed to be carved out of stone. Cobwebs hung in various spaces, giving the gray tunnel a forbidding look. The shadows crawled across the walls stealthily, and you could hear a faint drip in the distance, echoing quietly across the tunnels. Their foot steps were the only noised that broke the thick silence that hung over them like a veil of evil. watching them.
They came to a break in the path. two doorways with high arches. Over each was a celestial body. over the right was the sun, and over the left was the moon.
"Which way should we go?" Ryou asked, his voice echoing down both pathway.
"Let's split up. We can cover ground easily that way." Ishtar suggested.
"Ok, sounds reasonable. How bout Ryou and I, and Ishtar and Bakura? Sound good?" Malik suggested.
"Fine with me." Ryou said, handing Bakura the flashlight since nether neither him nor Ishtar had one.
"Yup." Ishtar said smiling. or smirking.
While Ryou, Malik and Ishtar discussed a few things; no one paid attention to Bakura. No one noticed the evil, malicious glint in the Yami's eyes. A look that no one has seen in a few years. His eyes were brownish blackish colour with hints of a dried blood colour, so cold and hard. Not that they were before mind you. just more so.
"Ready to go Bakura?" Ishtar asked his 'friend'.
Bakura looked at him and smiled a fake smile. "Yes. Lets go."
"Alright. see you guys in three hours? Alright?" Asked Ryou.
"Sounds good to me." Bakura said with the still fake smile.
"Alright! Ja ne!" Malik said waving cheerily.
As they headed there separate ways, Bakura let his smile turn into a smirk.
||Soon, all these fools shall fall into my trap and will never leave this sanctuary of Darkness. They will soon find out the fate of these people. And by then it will be too late.|| He thought smirking.
"Yo Bakura! Are you going to sit there all day?" Ishtar called.
"Coming!" He said and ran off to catch up with his 'friend'. Soon it will be too late for any of them.
