Bakura's house-

"I don't see why you're whining about this, it seems pretty cool to me," complained the spirit of the Sennen Ring while examining his own newly grown canines.

"I cannot go to school with fangs!" said a distraught Ryou with the adorable English accent that makes his fan girls swoon.

"Well why not?" demanded the King of Thieves.

"It's- well-I- ….I don't know," admitted Ryou. "It isn't normal?" Bakura gave him a confused look.

"I hate to break it to you – well, actually I don't, but nothing in your life is normal," Bakura pointed out.

"Fine, I'll go to school with fangs." Ryou gave in.

"Yay!" said a carbon copy of Ryou.

"Ah!" screamed the real Ryou.

"Calm down, woman," said the copy in the voice of Bakura.

"Bakura! I- could you show me how to do that?" asked the albino hikari. Said yami looked confused- well, like a confused Ryou.

"Do what?" he asked.

"That! Look and sound like me," explained the hikari.

"Why would you want to know how to look like yourself?" the yami inquired.

"No, I mean I want to know how to look like you," Ryou stated, used to Bakura's quirkiness by now.

"Oh. Why?" Ryou shrugged.

"Why not?"

Bakura grinned. "I think I'm rubbing off on you."

"Nani?" said the confused hikari.

"You're doing things just for the hell of it."

"Oh."

Later that day --

After School Let Out–

Ryou sighed in relief. No one had noticed his teeth.

/Well, no one can see your teeth if you don't talk/ said Bakura

/I don't want anyone to know I have fangs, yami/ Ryouexplained.

/…I don't understand you /

Ryou ignored him.

/Try the illusion again, hikari/ Bakura commanded.

He closed his eyes. When he opened them, he looked exactly like Thief King Bakura.

/You're getting better at that, hikari/ Bakura noticed.

"Bakura" walked to the Kame game shop where the "Friendship cult" as Bakura liked to call them, was gathering like they did every Friday afternoon.

Kame Game Shop –

Yugi was in the middle of an interesting conversation with Jounuchi when the door to the store opened. A boy about the same height as Yami stepped in the door.

"Bakura," Someone whispered.

"Yu-Gi-Oh!" A flash of light visible only to the holders of the Sennen

Items filled the room. Suddenly, Yugi grew 10 cm and went through puberty.

Yami held "Bakura" up by the collar of his shirt.

"What. Did. You. Do. To. Ryou!" he hissed.

"Let go Pharaoh. The brat is fine." Said the mock Bakura. Ryou dropped his disguise. To anyone watching (for there were a few) it appeared that Ryou had once again gained control.

/Yami really doesn't like you, does he// Ryou remarked.

/What was your first clue/ Bakura said sarcastically.

"Hello Yami." Said Ryou. "Sorry about my yami. He…is in a bad mood,"

Yami looked him over. "Ryou- the tomb robber…he isn't hurting you, is he?" asked Yami, looking concerned.

/That little-/ Bakura started.

"No-no! N-nothing like that!" said Ryou quickly.

Yami looked Ryou in the eyes, then seemed to except his answer and went back to his conversation.

"So…Isis said Shadi contacted her?" Yami asked Jounuchi.

"Yeah, she said he lost his Sennen scales and wanted her to check if Malik or Bakura's yami had it."

At this, everyone looked to the spot on the floor Ryou had been occupying a moment before.

"Hey…Where'd he go?" Anzu wondered aloud.

So…..What do you think? Criticism welcome.
