Hi. Another day, another chapter and more typing. I hope the other chapter was enjoyable. During this time period I looked at some research materials to help me with the next few chapters. This chapter will have Japanese suffixes like chan and kun. What may be said here later on could get disturbing, but it's as true as the creator designed it to. I don't own Yugioh and never will. I wish I owned Ryou though, hee. Now hope you enjoy the story.
AKA: I would like to thank Imaginix Fairy for reviewing. I would like to know though is a story alert a good or bad thing? I wish someone would tell me. Okay now.
Play Three Ryou Exposed:
In the beginning: Ryou's School Daze.
"Ryou, get up it's time for school," stated the mother shaking her sleeping son gently from under the covers.
"Umm. Morning already. (yawn) Alright I'm up." And with that his mother stood aside giving him room to get out of bed. The mother left the room and Ryou stretched his arms a bit. His direction turned to the Millennium ring still lying on the desk glowing brightly.
"Oh yes. I need to get something so that I can wear this ring to school today," he remembered and jumped out of bed. However he realized that he had to get ready for school first so he took that into consideration and started undressing. (Author: Yea!)
Downstairs a yawning Amane wearing a light blue nightgown with bunny slippers and Father wearing red striped pajamas and regular gray slippers, slowly exited their rooms. Both looked tired and ready to hop back into bed. Just then the smell of cheese and toast tickled their noses.
"Yum," both said with glee. Both ran downstairs and headed towards the kitchen. Whenever food was involved it was: "Eat first, do everything else later." They stopped in their tracks a few feet from the kitchen to not run into the mother fully dressed and wearing a lilac apron as she walked by. She was barely a few feet past them when the father asked, "Dear what's for breakfast?"
She rubbed her hands with her apron and turned to their direction. "Well you'll be glad to hear that it's Welsh rabbit," she said and walked off.
"Welsh rabbit?" both questioned and sniffed the air. The smell of the steaming Welsh rabbit traveled through the air and into their noses, igniting the two ran as if they entered the Olympic marathon. (AN: Welsh rabbit is melted cheese on either crackers or toast, not real rabbit.) The reason they rushed was because of the fact that the mother only made one per week. Sure she could make one herself, but it didn't have the same flavor and texture as her mother's. With the father's absence, Amane obtained all the Welsh rabbits while Ryou contented to having his favorite food cream puffs. With the father's return this meant that Amane would have a rival for her cheesy delight. They rushed each at the same speed. The cheesy morsel could be seen as they ran, but soon they got themselves stuck through the doorway as it could only allow one to go through at a time. The two struggled each pushing and shoving the other trying to reach their breakfast.
"Father, I was here first!" shouted the struggling Amane.
"No you weren't I was," defended the father who shoved Amane's head towards the support beam. (AN: Father's shouldn't do this. Not even if they were starving for three weeks)
"I'm a growing girl and need my daily source of calcium. And that Welsh rabbit is just the right amount so I should get it," she reasoned shoving her father's torso behind her.
"I know that you're a growing girl, Amane; but Daddy needs his Welsh rabbit," he explained getting his right leg through. "Besides Daddy's been gone a long time. Don't you think that I deserve this meal after my hard work?"
"What hard work? All you did was travel and get stuff," she proclaimed making her way through the door by pushing his hip towards the support beam. By getting his hip out of the way, she made her passage through the doorway. The father tried to rush, but Amane was too far ahead. By the time he made even two steps, the plate was in her hand and walked to the table, knife and fork in the other hand. She sat herself down, opened a napkin, and placed it in her lap. As her knife dug into the Welsh rabbit, the father came up behind her chair watching with sadness as the knife sliced the Welsh rabbit in half. The melting cheese stuck on the knife as it skated across the toast. The sound of toast crunching like a kid stepping on fresh snow nearly made him cry. He would have mourned over the lost of his meal until he got an idea. He went over to the side of the chair as Amane sliced a corner and stuck the fork in. She scarcely lifted the piece in the air when her father used a cheap trick.
"Amane, if you eat that Welsh rabbit, I'm grounding you for the rest of the month." he stated facing Amane with a grin as she stopped and placed the fork down.
"That's dirty, Father," she said as she slid out of the chair and her father took her place.
"No. That's being a adult," he said happily wolfing down a piece of the Welsh rabbit whereas Amane watched in anger. Knowing she'd been defeated she walked to the freezer, grabbed a box of chocolate chip Eggo waffles, took two out and put them into the toaster. Shortly, Ryou entered the room looking ready to go, suitcase in hand.
"Good morning, Father."
"Guh-muh-ing Ruh," the father said mouth stuffed with rabbit.
Seeing his father busy stuffing himself he turned to see an upset looking Amane poking at her waffle.
"Good morning, Amane-chan," spoke Ryou happily and uneasy realizing what had happened and started fixing himself a cream puff. "I see Father took your Welsh rabbit."
"Yes he did and he used foul tactics too."
"Did not," defended the father done with his meal.
(Ryou sighs)
"Um Amane-chan, shouldn't you be getting ready for school?" asked Ryou.
"School! I almost forgot, be right back," she said and ran out of the kitchen. Ryou went to fix himself a cream puff, while his father put away his plate. Before he left the father happened to notice something different.
"I see you're wearing the Millennium ring."
"How did you know, Father?" exclaimed the shocked Ryou. He unbuttoned a few buttons from his top uniform revealing the ring in the center of his chest. A semi-thin brown colored rope looped through the rings loophole.
"Just a lucky guess," said his father proudly. "I guess you'll be showing it off today, just don't lose it alright?"
"Yes, Father," he answered buttoning up his uniform again. (AN: poo)
"Okay I'm ready!"
The two men turned their direction to the ready to go Amane wearing her new orange and green uniform. The clock read 7:30, so there was no time to waste. They both said their goodbyes to their father and seeing their mother entering the kitchen, bid her goodbye as well. Walking a little ways from their house, Amane couldn't help herself by bringing up the event on how she lost her breakfast.
"It's so unfair. Grownups, they always get what they want," pouted Amane crossing her arms.
"Now, now Amane-chan. I'm sure it's just this one-day. Besides it has been a while since father ate some of mother's cooking," explained Ryou calming her down.
"I guess, but it still was a cheap trick."
(Ryou chuckles)
As they approached the school grounds they caught sight of three girls in a bunch giggling to themselves. By the look of their uniforms they were first years in middle school, the same as Amane.
"Ohayō, (Good morning) Kichi-san, Akina-san, and Nori-san," greeted Amane.
"Ohayō, Amane-san" welcomed the trio.
"Ohayō gozaimasu, Sasaki-kun, Arai-kun, and Yamada-kun," greeted Ryou.
"Ohayō Bakura-sempai," welcomed the starry-eyed and blushing trio. If Ryou could read minds then he would have heard so many complements.
"Amane, it looks like you will be hanging out a bit before school starts. I'll head off to class to pass the time." Ryou bid the girls a goodbye and headed towards the main gate. Kichi, Akina, and Nori watched him while Amane stared at them with a blank look on her face.
"Do you guys honestly think my brother is cute?"
"Shh. Do you want the whole world to know?" said the girls with Kichi and Akina pulling Amane aside as Nori covered her mouth. Amane sweat dropped as the blushing girls dragged her away and into the middle school class. Meanwhile Ryou discovered what his mother had meant during their conversation when their father got back. In the west wing of the school, hundreds of girls ranging from middle school and up were giggling and waving to him. Some greeted him as he had expected, but he didn't realize it'd this many. Some boys who came in grumbled a bit, jealous of how every day seemed like this. They passed by leaving a poor Ryou to face all these girls on his own.
(Ryou thinking) "I'm not good with girls." Now Ryou was just find with girls as long as they kept some sort of distance, were a small group, and didn't bunch up so closely to him. It wasn't that he wanted space, but being so close together made him feel uncomfortable.
(Ding-dong, ding-dong (pause) ding-dong, ding-dong)
(thinking) The bell, good. "Um...Ohayō gozaimasu, mina," greeted Ryou facing the crowd before heading off to class. If he stayed a bit longer he'd had seen that nearly half of the girls fainted at that moment. School hours went by without a hitch. There were some boring classes but all was okay. During the breaks, Ryou got a chance to show his Millennium ring, which filled the room with awe. The ending bell finally rung and everyone gathered outside. Ryou went off to the side of the walking students to catch Amane, but someone else caught him first.
"Hey, Bakura-kun!" shouted a male student running towards him.
"Oh, Jiro-kun, Konban Wa (good evening)," answered Ryou waving his hand in the air. He saw that he had brought some of his friends too. On his right was Yamamoto, Hideaki; a first year (10th grade), Inuoe, Masato; a second year (11th), and Nakamura, Taro; another first year. "What brings you all here?"
The boys had been friends for quite some time and some days after school would challenge each other with board games or RPG's.
"I hear you have that RPG game Monster World, right?" asked Jiro.
"Yes."
"So can I come over and play it, please?" the three begged.
"Sure. I just need to get to get Amane first."
"Nii-san!"
"Amane, there you are. Do you have any homework to do?"
"A little, but I can manage. So are these guys coming over?"
"Yes, they want to play the game Monster World with me."
"Monster World? Nii-san, really. I can't understand why you like those RPG's so much?"
"What!" exclaimed Taro. "RPG's are among one of the most popular games to date. Soon people will be able to play them on computers!"
"It takes a lot of skill and tactics to play," added Hideaki. "Besides that you get to play as warriors hence the RP or role playing."
"Maybe if you watch us play you'll get it," suggested Masato.
"No thanks, I'll rather do homework."
The group went home with each boy trying to convince Amane that RPG's weren't silly. When they entered the house, Amane headed straight up to her room while Ryou got the game. They gathered the necessities, chips, dip, and soda and brought it to Ryou's room. When they waited for Ryou to get back the boys started reminiscing.
"It's been a while since we've played with Bakura-kun," said Jiro rolling back and forth like a rocking chair, wrapping his arms around his legs and crouched down.
"I know we've been so busy with entrance exams that we never get time like this to just goof off." Masato said looking at the ceiling. "This is great."
The boys agreed and took a chip. Ryou came back with a happy grin board in his arms. They set it up to the point where it covered the whole table. The board consisted of trees, little houses, and arrangements. It was decided that since Ryou had invited them that he'd be the game master.
"Now everyone. Create your character." Ryou said happily. "I have the data sheets right here so let's go."
The sheets were passed out one by one. Masato decided to be a hobbit, Jiro, a half-elf, Taro, a dwarf and Hideaki, a bird-tail. Then they decided their class Masato: beast-tamer, Jiro: Martial artist, Taro: warrior, and Hideaki: illusionist. Once they rolled the dice to see how many points they would start out with the game began. The game went smoothly, there were some laughs when Taro accidentally got beat by a chibi monster, and when Hideaki got "stuck" in quicksand and had to skip his turn. The commotion woke up a scheming soul locked away in his room.
"What's all this noise?" he stated angrily. He came outside and started hearing his host's voice. It was his thoughts on how the game was going. The soul came to his host's eye sockets to see what the darn boy could be rambling on about. He saw the group laughing and playing along across the strange landscape.
"Now what could this be?" he asked. "A game?" It had been a few years since he'd seen the world and decided to watch. In an instant the yami had learned all that he needed to know.
"I hope the sands of time haven't weakened me," he chuckled quietly and then it led to a loud boast of evil laughter.
Okay this chapter was hard to do. The other two were pre made before I got my account okay so now I'm digging through my head trying to get ideas that don't sound rushed.
