Chapter 3 – High Hopes of Revenge

I can't believe it. Could… Jounouchi… really be turning gay.

Ugh.

As if the whole idea of him being queer wasn't bad enough… but its even worse because of who he's falling for.

The absolutely annoying…. Malik Ishtar.

That fucking control freak is nothing but bad news.

Yea sure, all the lady's adore him and find him to be extremely sexy…

They don't know the story behind the face…

The evil that resides in his black hole of a heart.

He claims to have turned to the good side… but I can read his heart like a book.

And I know for a fact he's still evil.

The pain he's caused me…

Is beyond explanation.

And as Joey's friend.

I can't let him experience the same dark abyss that I had to live in… the same hell I was forced to live for.

Otogi gave a painful sigh as he regained his thoughts. He was burned by the stingy sensation of his past. He blinked. "No." He muttered to himself demandingly in hopes to stop the reincarnation of the agonizing memories.

But… despite this whole situation. He couldn't let anyone see his weakness. For goodness sakes, he was Ryujji Otogi. He had no flaws… besides coming off as a jerk at times…. But what did it matter now anyway.

He wasn't going to tell anyone what happened between him and Malik, that was that. Not Yugi, not Anzu… not even his best friend, Honda.

And in desperation he decided that the single way to get Malik back, was pure revenge and poke fun at the fact that he was almost 99 sure that he was gay.

If he used this to cover up for… for the past. Maybe. Revenge would be possible.

Otogi sat up rubbing his head and attempt to fix his hair. He could hear heavy footsteps approach him, unmistakably the tapping of Honda's motorcycle boots.

At the sound Otogi wiped out every single emotion besides his hate and disgust in Malik and Joey from his mind.

No weakness could show.

None whatsoever.

"Those two are just disgusting." Otogi mumbled as Honda gave him a hand off the cold tile floor.

"Hey, you okay Otogi? What are you talking about… and how'd you get on the floor?" Said the brunette scratching the peak of his chin in confusion.

"Your so slow, Honda." He grunted. "What I'm trying to say is that… Malik is turning Jounouchi into a faggot."

"What!" Honda shook his head. "No way. Not our Joey at least."

"I'm dead serious."

"I'm sure pretty boy, Malik is gay… but… Jou!"

"Look." Otogi shot, darting frustrated green eyes at Honda. "I just watched those two fags flirt! And I wouldn't make this type of shit up."

"They were flirting!" Honda rasped in clear disbelief. "Joey doesn't flirt. It's not like him." He blinked. "Is this some type of April Fools joke, cause if is it's not funny."

"They were Honda!" Otogi gritted his teeth. "Joey asked Malik his size.."

"WHAT THE FUCK!"

Otogi nodded wearing a look that read: I-told-ya-so.

"You swear..?" He blinked wearing a clearly dazed look.

He's completely stupefied.

Pointy hair and all.

Heh.

Maybe, his love for his friend will turn him against Malik.

Maybe I'll turn them all against that bastard.

Otogi tried to keep the pleased smirk off his face. "I swear on the bible, Honda."

Honda blinked again trying to grasp the information, and realize the sad reality of the situation.

"Well." Otogi sighed, pincing the bridge of his nose. When he finally came to speak he swallowed first as if to replenish his senses. "All I know is that Joey is being a complete idiot. He told me that he has a crush on Malik."

"He what!" Honda put a finger to his lip. "Oh.. I get it. Joey is falling for Malik, and in turn it's causing him to queston his sexuality.. in turn the results could..."

"…cause Joey a life of ever going humiliation… destined to be forever shunned from society?"

"Yea. That's what I was trying to say. I just can't believe it's Malik, why couldn't it be me..?" Joked Honda.

"Don't tell me your becoming gay as well…" He frowned.

"No way! It's Shizuka all the way!" Honda shook his head raising innocent palms in the air.

"I'll pretend you didn't say that."

"Malik Ishtar…?" Honda repeated.

"Yeah. And who knows what that bitch will do to him. He's the type of guy who will fuck ya' then leave ya."

"Damn it!" Cursed Honda to himself. "Joey can be a dumb-ass. But I can't let that guy touch him like that!"

"And we're not gonna stand around and let him lose his virginity to a guy."

"That too." Honda nodded.

"Well, I say, we get to work then."

"Operation straight shall begin!" Said Honda boldly, flexing his biceps.

"That sounds so gay…"

Honda's phone gave a rang and he gestured to it, walking out of the room.

Otogi was left in his own thoughts…

We'll humiliate Malik. Draw everyone against him.

Not only will we convert Jounouchi into a completely straight man, we'll build inner hate of Malik in him.

In the end, Joey will come out happy, Honda will be happy, Yugi and Anzu will be happy.

And.

I will be happy.

As for… Malik…

Heh. Heh.

He'll be completely devastated.

Otogi grinned. Feeling energized from this sudden surge of evil, he pranced off behind Honda; plans of revenge ever growing in his head.

Next chapter… Joey is already questioning his sexuality even before Otogi and Honda can get to him. Malik is starting to wonder if a relationship can work between the two of them… and a surprise in hopes of achieving his ultimate goal. As for Otogi… he's getting worse… does he have a reason for his inhumane behavior, is he hiding something himself...? Or… has he really gone bad?

Find out next time… on Unguided Emotions!
