Part One

"Yadonushi!" The call was accompanied by the slamming of a door; Bakura was home. "Get down here, boy!"

Knowing that if he didn't go his yami would just come upstairs and find him Ryou stayed where he was, in his room watching TV. A month ago he would have scrambled down the stairs to avoid Bakura's wrath, but since the thief had gained a physical form he'd learned that, when it came to hurting his hikari, Bakura was all bark and no bite.

"Damnit yadonushi! Why don't you come when you're called?" A very irritated tomb-robber said from the bedroom door.

"Oh, I'm sorry 'Kura. Didn't hear you." The light lied, smiling sweetly.

"…that's ok." Bakura sighed, completely falling for Ryou's false innocence.

"Where were you anyways? I was worried…" The seemingly angelic boy said, wanting to see how long the spirit would go for his act. He wasn't worried; he trusted his dark to take care of himself.

"I'm sor -" Bakura almost apologized, something Ryou had never been able to make him do before, but stopped as he remembered why he'd been angry. "Get your shoes on, we're going somewhere!"

Damn, so close…"Where are we going?" Ryou was genuinely curious.

"…I can't tell you."

"Why not?"

"Because."

"You know I'll find out when we get there anyways." Ryou was now tying his shoes.

"Fine…we're going to the game shop." Bakura admitted.

"May I ask why?…You're not after the pharaoh –I mean Yami – again, are you?" Ryou demanded suspiciously.

"Not at the moment…and you'll find out later! Let's just go." Bakura stalked out of the room. Sighing, Ryou followed.

The Mouto Residence

The former pharaoh was pacing angrily around Yugi's bedroom. The shorter boy hadn't asked him why yet because he wasn't sure he really wanted to know; Bakura had been there earlier. Yugi hadn't known he was there until the albino thief had come marching angrily down from Yami's room saying something to the effect of 'stupid, stuck-up, pointy-haired BAKA!'.

Well, even if he was afraid of the answer, he didn't want the spirit to ware out a path in his carpet. "Umm, Yami? Is something wrong?"

"No, aibou! Everything's perfectly fine!" Yami yelled in a manner that assured Yugi that everything was not perfectly fine. He didn't stop pacing either.

"Is it something Bakura did?"

"YES!…well, not really. More like his reaction to something I did."

"…I'm sorry Yami, but I don't get it."

"I doesn't matter! What matters is that the next time I see that baka tomb robber I'm going to banish him so far into the shadow realm that… well I'm too angry to think of what right now, but it will not be pleasant!" Yami ranted as he paced by the window where he saw two white haired boys walking towards the shop. "Damnit it's him!" Yami retreated to his soul room, seeming to forget the vow he'd made seconds before.

Sighing in a way similar to that Ryou had used, Yugi went to answer the door.

On the street

"Come on 'Kura! We're here now, why can't you tell me!" Ryou really, really, wanted to know why they were going to visit the Mouto's. Ryou was friends with them, but he knew his yami wouldn't want to pay a social visit.

"Because!" You won't go in if you know…

/ I heard that! …but I' too curious now so I guess I'll go anyways./ Ryou said threw their mind link as he rang the door bell.

"Good." Bakura smirked as he disappeared to his soul room.

"Bakura!" Ryou protested as Yugi opened the door.

"Hi Ryou! Where's Bakura? Yami said he saw both of you on the street." Yugi greeted his friend pleasantly.

"He's hiding in his soul room…don't ask." Ryou shook his head.

"Okay…so what brings you here? Want to come in?" Yugi said, opening the door wide enough so that the albino could come in.

"Thanks…and I don't know." Ryou said calmly, before a look of extreme annoyance came over his face.

/ Just say it/

/No/

"Umm, Ryou?" Yugi said confused by his pale friends behavior.

"Yugi…" Ryou still looked very annoyed, but sighed in defeat to his dark. " Yugi, my yami wants your yami to know that he isn't speaking to him."

"…Huh?" That didn't help Yugi's confusion.

/Fine! See if I care! …Yugi, tell Ryou that that's great because I'm not speaking to his yami either/

/Can't you just tell him yourself/

/NO! If the thief's in his soul room when I talk to Ryou then I may as well be talking to the tomb robber/

/…fine/

"Yami says that's great because he isn't talking to Bakura either." Yugi said with less than half the enthusiasm his dark had.

"Bakura says he expected Yami to say that; only a brat like him would come up with something so childish." Ryou said equally unenthusiastic. He didn't bother pointing out that this was his yami's idea.

"Yami says that Bakura started it."

"Bakura said he might have started this, but your yami started it earlier."

"Yami says that that was Bakura's fault to."

"Bakura wants to know how…and so do I." Ryou added in defense of the spirit he'd come to consider family.

"Yami says Bakura was sending him signals."

"Yeah, like what!" Ryou said for both his dark and himself.

"Tons of signals! He came over when it was barely even morning, he was talking weird and saying things like 'I'm not sure how to tell you this', he even kissed him back for the first few seconds!"

"Umm, Yugi? WHAT THE HECK ARE WE ARGUING ABOUT!"

/That's a good question Yami…what did you do/ Yugi accused threw their mind link.

/ Bakura, I'm sure you aren't innocent either. / Ryou thought to his yami, then said out loud. "I think you both have some explaining to do."

"I second that…Yami, I think you'd better come out here." Yugi said glaring down at the puzzle.
