Ah, a Saturday morning. This is one of those days when Ryou has no school,
which means my schedule is freer as well. Lately Ryou has been trying to
teach me how to work the machines of the modern day world, but it's all
really just a big annoyance. As I materialized out of the Ring, I saw I was
in the kitchen, and Ryou was using the "stove" to make something to eat.
"Hi Yami."
I grunted. Yes, I can grunt when I want to, it means I am in a bad mood and you shouldn't mess with me. Got that? Good.
Why is it so cold? It's been getting that way lately, and it gets darker out earlier. When I asked Ryou, he went on about the Earth and how it goes around the sun or something. And something about an angle. Or something. I wasn't really listening. I didn't want him to rant on about the planet and such, I just wanted to know why it was so damn cold!
Anyways, back to the present. . . * POP * GAH! What was that?! Oh, just the thing called the "toaster." No, I wasn't afraid. I'm never afraid! I was just. . . startled.
Ryou laughed. Again, how dare he laugh at me. "I taught you about the toaster two weeks ago. You should be used to it by now."
I glared at the toaster, trying at the same time not to let Ryou see my agitation at what he calls a "simple" thing. Is he laughing again? Better not be.
As I walk into the dining room, something out the window catches my eye. WHAT IN THE NAME OF RA HAPPENED?! The ground has been covered with whiteness! And there is more white coming down from the sky. "R-Ryou?"
Ryou comes in carrying two plates of eggs and some toast. "What?"
"The ground and sky. . ." It must be a punishment from the Gods. What did I do? Oh, wait, I defiled and looted and bunch of your temples, stole from a bunch of dead Pharaohs, and tried to steal 7 of the most mystical and powerful items so that I could become ruler of the world. Um. . . OK, but other then that, what did I do?
Ryou laughed again. That's it! I'll teach him not to laugh at me! Later. . . After I figure out what's going on. "You forgot? It's the snow I told you about."
Hold the phone. Er. . . wait, no one has the phone with them. What's the point of that saying then?! ANYWAYS, halt! There. Snow? Ah, yes, snow! That thing that made the mortals look cold and miserable on the box, um, excuse me, TV. The thing that falls from the sky and makes everybody suffer. Muahahah. What a wondrous thing.
"So. . . it's snowing now. . . And this happens every year?" It NEVER snowed in Egypt. I never even heard of it.
"Yup. It snows all winter, which is now until about April."
"How many months away is that?"
"Six, I think." He smiled. Yeah, this kid is too happy all the time. Annoying happiness. *shudders * "And you're going to have to go out in it. It's part of teaching you about the new world."
Wait a minute! Going out in snow would only be an idea of that of a madman! Er, ok, you could kinda consider me as crazy, but I'm not stupid! "Me? Go out in that? You're kidding." He shook his head. "I am not touching that stuff! It's unnatural!"
"It's natural." Hikari looks confused. I'm confused as well, but you don't see me showing it! "I told you, it's just like rain. It is rain, only frozen a bit because the air temperature-"
"NO! I didn't ask WHAT it was, I'm wondering why I must go out in it." Not another rant, please!
"Because if I don't, you'll somehow find a way to get into trouble with it. You always do. I can imagine you out there, trying to banish every single snowflake that falls from the sky to the Shadow Realm."
Damn straight! Well, that would be a little complicated, and take a while, BUT I'LL SEND EVERY LAST FLAKE TO THE REALM OF SHADOWS! MUAHAHA! "Anyways, I'm not going out there. . ."
((2 hours later))
"Damnit." How the heck did Ryou force me to do this? Oh yes, I remember now, he threatened to tell the Pharaoh I was afraid of this "snow." I hate mortals. And I've also decided I hate snow, even though I haven't even been outside yet. No, Ryou says first we have to "prepare" by wearing coats and hats and gloves. Whatever.
Hm, ok now. Walking out the door. . . Ra, it's cold out here! I'll turn into an icicle! Stepping off the porch. . . AH! IT BLINDS MY EYES! THE WHITENESS!!!! It's everywhere you turn! And it's all so gleaming white! Ryou, why the hell are you looking at me like that? I glare- yeah, that's right, you better look away. I love the reaction the pathetic mortals get when I glare.
I'm still half blinded. "Ok, I went out in it, can I go back in now?" Ra, for it to be this cold out can simply NOT be natural.
Ryou frowns. Or at least I think he is, I'm not sure because my eyes hurt too much to really tell. "No, we haven't done anything yet." He says. I groan on the inside; I never let my emotions show outside. What kind of tomb robber do you think I am, one who goes around whining about every little thing? No, I wasn't feared throughout all of Egypt for whining about. . . Whoops, now I'm ranting.
My first step into the snow. AH! IT'S TRYING TO CONSUME ME! IT HAS MY FOOT! BEGONE, EVIL STUFF OF WHITE AND FLUFFYNESS! Well, there goes SOME of it into the Shadow Realm at least. And I have my foot back. And Ryou is staring at me again. Not even my glare is stopping him.
"What? Were you expecting to walk on top of it?" How dare he mock my intelligence! Even if he was right. . . Ryou is sighing in that hopeless way. He seems to do that a lot when trying to teach me. "It's like water, Yami. You can't walk on top of it unless it's packed really tight, which it's not right now."
I continue to show no emotion whatsoever. I am Bakura, the King of Thieves, soon to be the ruler of the world, and I will not give in to anything, not even snow! It's testing my patience, however, and you do not want to do test my patience. As you can ask many of my victims, I have very little of it.
"Since this is the first snow of the season, I was thinking of going down to Yugi's house so we could all hang out together." Hold the. . . Um, I dunno. Halt. Yeah, that works. Anyways, stop right there.
"I am NOT going over to the Pharaoh's house. And you can't make me." Hah! You can't, either!
"I knew you'd say that. But just think about it; you get to see Yami Yugi and his first experience with snow. It could be more. . . interesting then yours has been." Hm. Hikari is right here. If I saw the Pharaoh making a fool out of himself, I'd have a laugh for years.
"Yugi is making him go out in this too?" Hah! I DO get to see the Pharaoh suffer! Of course, to make it satisfying I'll have to act like I don't care that's it's cold enough to make me numb and this accursed snow is now going down my boots, making my feet turn to ice.
Ra, it is unnaturally cold out. Cold. . . cold. . . . cold. I've never felt anything like it before. And I don't like it.
"Yami, it's not even that cold out." What the hell is he saying?! "It's gets a lot colder than this." COLDER?! Ra, that's not possible! "At the worst days, it hits negative 20 degrees." What in the name of. . . all that is right with the world? Is it the apocalypse or something?! THE TEMPERATURES GO TO NEGATIVE?!?!?!
I let out a little breath. HOLY * censored *!!!! I can SEE my breath! It looks like mist or something. Who would've thought? I still hate snow.

Well, that's chapter 2. ^^;; Still doesn't seem to be going anywhere, but it WILL get better. I'd appreciate reviews, please. Oh, and this is a little OOC, but still. . .
Bakura: Why the heck are you making me look so stupid?
GF: Because I can. And because it's funny.
Ryou: I don't really rant on, do I?
GF: No! Of course not! I'm sorry Ryou, I just had to do that. You don't really rant. At least, I don't think so.
Ryou: It almost seemed you were making fun of me.
GF: NO! NEVER! You're my favorite character! It only seems like I'm picking on you, 'cause like I said, this is OOC. . .
Bakura: You're the worst writer I've ever seen.
GF: *gets mad * THAT'S IT! *starts to chase him with her fire mallet. . . again *
Ryou: *sighs as he watches Bakura and GF fight * He just has to push her buttons. . . Well, I guess I'll say this, review please!
