(Author's note)

Hey, if I owned Yu-Gi-Oh, the series would be about Ryou Bakura instead of Yugi. And if I owned Inuyasha, Kagome would be in love with Sesshoumaru, not his half brother.

Translations are at the end of the chapter. Aren't I so nice?

Answers to reviews—

Sora the Taske – Well, thank you

Black-Flare-Shadow – "how do you pronounce Ryou?"(and Bakura): Ryou is pronounced "Re-you" and Bakura is supposed to be pronounced "Bah-koo-rah" instead of how they say it in America: "Ba-kur-ah"

Bunny1 – "cofusing but god!" : Um…is English your first language? I think you mean "Confusing but good"

Sirius-Black-is-not-Dead – Yay! Someone agrees with me! (Slash-fun)

Raven and Rose – There, I updated.

Starting the story—

Last chapter—

"You!"

This time—

Kagome drew another arrow. Ryou's eyes widened. His hand subconsciously moved to where his dueling deck should be. It wasn't.

Kagome released the arrow with a "thwap". Ryou, on reflex, crossed his wrists in front of his face and braced for impact. As the sacred arrow flew, an emerald green translucent shield appeared around the confused albino.

Kagome was in shock. Someone had stopped her arrow! She looked, in horror at the demon in question. He too looked scared.

Ryou-

"Clink." Ryou looked down. His Sennen Ring was twitching. It rose into the air and all five points flew to point toward the girl's (Kagome's?) Bag.

"You have a Sennen item," Ryou stated. The girl, who was speechless at seeing an object move on its own, gaped at him, and then replied,

"Sennen..?" Ryou pointed at her bag.

Kagome-

Maybe he's not an evil demon… maybe he can tell me about the girl in chains…

She made up her mind and opened her bag. She took out the Sennen Scales and showed them to the white haired boy.

"The Sennen Scales..." he muttered.

"C-can you tell me about- about the girl? The girl in the dark place?" She said, not knowing if she was supposed to ask that.

"The dark place?" the boy asked. "The dark place is called the Shadow Realm. The girl was an ancient spirit. You freed her, I suppose?"

"Yes," Kagome said, not expecting that answer.

"She is the Spirit of the Sennen Scales now. If you freed her that means that her soul is the other you. The darkness of your soul," Bakura, who had switched with his hikari, said.

"The other me?" she said mostly to herself.

"Now can I ask you something? Why in Ra's name, did you shoot an arrow at me?" she laughed nervously at this.

"Um…I thought you were an evil demon?" Whatever Bakura had expected her to say, that wasn't it.

"…"

/Tenshi, go get Malik and the others. / Bakura told his hikari.

/Um… Doushite/ Ryou asked.

/Because we have a Sennen item holder here, and I don't want to deal with her alone. / The yami answered. The hikari nodded and separated from his body. Then the spirit-Ryou floated off to find Malik.

Kagome watched, wide-eyed. "I was right!" she proclaimed. Bakura raised an eyebrow. "You! You're a demon possessing a human!"

"Why, in Ra's name, would you think that?" Bakura inquired.

"You're obviously a demon from you're powers, but you don't look like one," Kagome said, wondering why she was explaining herself to this demon, "And I just saw the spirit of the human you're possessing run down the street."

"Wrong," Bakura said, "That was my hikari; my light; the other side of my soul. But you were close. It is technically her body." (It's not a typo; Bakura refers to Ryou as a she.)

"Oh…"said Kagome, trying to understand all of this.

"My hikari left to find the others."

"Others?"

"I'm not dealing with this on my own," Bakura snapped, "The others can explain it to you further."

"Oh, alright…" she said, "I- I'm sorry, for shooting at you…"

Bakura snorted, "You couldn't have hurt me,"

Kagome blushed, embarrassed. "Well, I'm still sorry."

Bakura looked at her oddly. I'll never understand mortals.

"Oi! Kaitou!" Came a familiar voice. Oh, no… Doushite!

"Hello Malik."

"I feel so loved," said an annoyed voice. (-.-0 my friend used to say that all the time. She's stopped saying it, and I started.)

"And Seto." Kagome held her hand out.

"Kagome Higarashi; miko in training," Kagome introduced herself. Seto raised an eyebrow.

"Seto Kaiba. CEO of KaibaCorp," he said stiffly

"Hello!" the boy with sand colored hair said, "I'm Malik!" he smiled happily.

"Ano…Malik-kun?" asked Ryou. "Who gave you sugar and WHY!" said Bakura.

"Isis-nee-san is awesome!" Malik proclaimed. Bakura, Seto, and Kagome sweatdropped.

"Oi, Malik," said Bakura, "The onna here has the Scales. Deal with her." Malik looked at Kagome again, then back at where Bakura would have been. That is, if he hadn't already left.

"'Kura!" called Malik. There was no answer.

"Rrrriinngg!" came a ring tone. Seto reached into his trench coat and pulled out a cell phone.

"Hello? … Yes ….No…Of course," Seto said, "I have to go." Seto took off down the street, coat billowing. (I wish I could do that! Maybe the coat is possessed..?)
