Staffel.1; how they came together

Chapter.5: - Trust you

It took at least an hour until they managed to get home without paying much attention. Normally there was nothing wrong with that, but it would be problematic if you were met by someone you knew who were not familiar with your background story and then suddenly saw your duplicate in front of you. That would be difficult to explain and also needs a good idea to make it seem sensible that suddenly someone who looks like Malik is someone like Ryou and someone like Yugi, you would almost have said they each had an older twin brother. Fortunately for them, however, the streets and the sidewalk were mostly empty, it all looked pretty normal for the few who walked there. There was a great silence the whole way, nobody had said anything, the only thing you could hear were the footsteps of the others, the animals made loud sounds around them or the howling of the wind that blew past them every now and then. Everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts and activities while they were walking. But for the yami's it had felt a little more difficult than they initially thought.

Initially, when they were looking for the three lights in this short time, Bakura and Marik began to talk to each other in order to develop ideas on how to gain the trust of their respective lights. The problem was that they each had no idea how something like this worked, even though they had mostly wound themselves into the darkness in their hearts, they still had problems to come to terms with it and deal with it. You tried again to ask for the help of the Pharaoh but how are you supposed to manage this completely perplexed? It was clear that their lights now hated them, rejected them or even repelled them, but if you knew the two Yami's well you could say that they didn't give up the word in their vocabulary. You are aware that you have to do everything in your power to get along reasonably well with your other half, which in turn would mean trying to gain your trust and to fight to convince you that you are no longer as malicious as before are.

Of course, as always in the imagination, it is always easy to act as you imagine it is more difficult than done. First and foremost, it was clear to them that they had to find out what the light likes in order to act without it looking like they were making something appear malicious! So the problem is how you would find out, you just ask, No, that's too conspicuous, ask Yami, no, he probably wouldn't know either because he couldn't understand the problem so well, you might be spying? Too complicated and time-consuming at the moment. Then probably hope for the best through compulsive conversations and don't let them slip away ... yes, that fits for the moment. After all, it should get out of town quickly, it just needed from both sides ... something ... what was that called again? Oh yes ... cooperation!

The silent silence in the living room still echoed through the whole living room in which they do not know how to interact with each other or who should start first. At the moment Malik, yugi and ryou were sitting on a long white coutch that stood in the middle of the room. If you were facing the coutch, Malik would sit on the left, Ryou would sit in the middle of the coutch and Yugi would linger on the right. Malik, who was sitting to the left of it, was sitting upright with his arms crossed and his legs crossed, also resting on the coutch. His eyes were closed and his expression was given a slight frown. It was written on his face that he was very tense, but it wasn't so difficult for him to get over this situation, he just didn't like to meet himself again whose presence he detested. Next to him sat Ryou with his legs drawn up, resting on his chest, propping himself up there, his arms wrapped lightly around his legs to play absent-mindedly with his head bowed in the direction of the knees on his white 3DS. Of course there was a small gap between the two supporting each other to see through to take a look at his game, which he tries to ignore the environment for the current situation for the most part. Of course, this restrained and nervous attitude about your walk only came over when he realized what situation you were in again. Yungi sat to the right of it and his attention was turned to the blanket, which was more interesting at the moment, his legs in the normal 90 degree position, but his hands and arms were used as pillows to support his head. His look was dreamy and emotionless, even in his mouth not a single angle and his eyes any emotions would remain hidden if they are there at the moment.

In the meantime, if you were standing behind the coutch and looking straight ahead, Marik was slightly to the right of the room, Yami on the wall where the TV owned by the hikari's was right next to Bakura's place in the big gap between marik and yami whose lone armchair stood there on which he is.

Marik who is sitting on a chair that was in this section of the house for an existing bar, which was normally made available for the kitchen, which here is usually a connecting counter to the right that functioned as part of the kitchen. The chair had only one leg and could turn as a small effect otherwise the chair head was curved like a sickle that points downwards and with the sickle ends the chair lower part was connected, which is round. He sat very casually on it with one leg wrapped in the chair so that his foot was on the right lap and his right foot dangled slightly, which sometimes even played on the support bar that was attached to the chair leg because it is mainly intended for that even Yugi would come up. His upper body stretched out as straight as a candle and yet leaned back slightly. His right arm leaned on the head of the chair as long as the left arm also simply dangled down. And that while he stared blankly at his halter half.

Bakura just didn't sit on a chair like Marik, but on an armchair. This was also kept simple and was in the same white style as the coutch on which Yugi, Ryou and Malik sat. A medium-sized blue blanket lay on top of the headboard as a decoration. Bakura was lying on the armchair by positioning his legs over the left armlene and his head rocking over the right arm so that his body has the chance to sit slightly angled on the armchair floor. In return, he had his arms crossed on his chest and turned his head to the left in the direction of Ryou so that he could stare at his light with a hard look.

Yami, who was standing in a straight posture, in Bakura's vicinity as well as opposite the light, he had the perfect angle of view of all 5. He himself was right next to the television on which he had leaned with half his torso. So that the lower half of the upper body shows itself in the room. His legs and feet were not against the wall but also a little further into the room so that he kept a certain distance from the wall in order to keep his balance. And to make his position look more elegant, he draped his feet slightly over one another. He had also held his arms slightly crossed to his chest with whose eyes were also directed at the coutch where the lights were sitting

All in all, you could say that each of them had different feelings inside to show them in the city. Inside the thoughts there were certain conflicts although they didn't look like it on the outside, it was still there. Yami observed all their facial features with the appropriate body language in order to be able to organize everything more precisely. He started with Marik and could easily say that he looked slightly playful from his demeanor but still looked very emotionless, but he could think that Marik felt exactly the opposite. His emotions were mainly shaped by remorse and worry. He did not admit it but since he gave the good in his dark heart he felt the remorse for all that he had done to his other personality as well as the selfishness and the striving for harm. And make sure that he doesn't want to lose his good half so that he hopes for a new beginning. He couldn't say much about his different and better personality Malik at the moment, but he knows that he can be stubborn and ready for rejection just like marik. He was able to assess the two Marik well because he understood him better in the afterlife. Just as it got to know better with Bakura and Marik in his measurement, so it seems Yugi had done with Malik and Ryou. Bakura was just as emotionless as Marik, only that as an old thief he was better at hiding his emotions and veiling them externally with others. Which, in turn, could not have its light and was hidden in them by allowing himself to be distracted with something else out of sheer emotions. They were all like day and night. Even yami and yugi. Yami didn't worry as much about yugi about reconciliation as the other two. He had a pretty good connection to his light so that your connection to mountains can resist and it would stay that way.

But now Yami wondered who of all the different characters would lead the first step in the right direction. He went through them all but when he thought about it he couldn't find a suitable one. So this would mean that he would have to take the first step. He couldn't imagine that one of the other two Yami's would break their pride so early in order to make peace so straight away, even though there is still such a tense atmosphere around them. Just as he assumed that even the Hikari's wouldn't do anything because it would be too uncomfortable for them to say something wrong and in many ways to them. Yugi probably wouldn't have as big a problem with it as the other two, after all, he and his partner had already faced a lot. However, erf assumed that even he was a bit uncomfortable to be in the same room as the psychotic ex-ghosts. Who can you hold that up to? So in the end it was up to Yami himself.

After a while of the long lasting silence and pondering his own thoughts, he couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to finally interrupt it before it kills him in the sense of the word. Yami struggled a little into a standing position, took a deep breath and cleared his throat a little before he started. He was now standing so that he had everyone else in the room in view and began to speak. "It's nice to see you again after an uncertain time. I have to speak of the three of us and say that we really missed you. Malik and Ryou I can understand that you will be skeptical of this if I say that now after all that has happened should give you another chance because i can promise that you have changed and that you really want a new bond with you. Trust me. " Yami didn't expect much that a reaction came, but it surprised him that malik looked up and even gave him a pissed off voice and countered him with counter-questions. "Pharaoh, I'm sure that this is not all you are saying, but I still doubt you so that I doubt that I would trust you in any way or from this second chance. I don't know how it was possible for you to end from the afterlife and the shadowy but one thing I can say that I will never let this pain in my srch that it comes back into my life. I would rather kill myself than trust him the rest of the word, he looked with his hateful look at Marik and then at Bakura before finally looking over at ryou and yugi with a softer look. "- And I think Ryou's going to feel the same way. So to put it simply, I'll give it an ass.

The first, after what felt like an eternity, spoke it in an exaggerated manner. but first the speech is interrupted by malik, who began to be in their presence in the name of all three lights and that with a harsh tone. The other two lights remained quiet. But marik jumps in again and again, but malik ignores him everything that gets his darkness is a dismissive look. At some point, Bakura seemed to be joining in and firing on Malik and Ryou. Yami tries to stop the screaming fight between the two. But it was too late Bakura got up and tried to draw his attention to him by picking up his DS and now a frightened ryou is sitting there. Ryou could only stammer and utter a little scream before he knew it he ran away. Bakura blinked a few times until he ran after him. Malik wanted to join him but yugi stopped him. Yugi whispered something in malik's ear but dan nodded and went over to marik and pulled him into the next room to talk to him about something, leaving a confused yami with a stubborn malik behind. "Malik, I am aware that it will be difficult for you, but I cannot explain to myself why I trust you at all, probably because I feel sorry for you, but it doesn't mean that you have to get along well. You can At least try to keep their closeness because I fear that we will stay here longer and that for an indefinite time. I cannot explain how this happened, that we are back because it still seems like a seal to us but I think we do will find out if you let us stay here. "

Malik still had his stubborn posture ready, but before that he looked more thoughtful. His previously tough mood remained and now automatically got the opinion of the others rolling. The others slowly shook themselves up one by one. Marik tried the other four first and now tried to say something to his other half but only came up against empty air when he wanted to talk to him, he hadn't even paid attention to him but pushed him straight against the wall .. Bakura had as The only commentary that came over insultingly for the three drained what made Ryou hide his head even more, whereupon Malik began to snort. Yami gave him a look that said he should shut up. Whose Bakura protested against it. With everything that ryou smiled on, he just began to feel even more uncomfortable than ever. His physical reaction consisted of the normal and usual quivering that mostly sprang out when uncomfortable. Bakura noticed this by his light and got up with a frown to go in the direction of ryou. Now ryou panicked and even more panic spread when his dark half stood directly across from him just to pick up the 3DS so that he could long into the eyes of the others. Bakura's eyes were instantly indefinable in contrast to ryous who were full of fear. He wanted to get deep inside, then it came too. He pushed bakura away with all his strength and started to run out of the door just before the tears. Bakura stood rooted to the ground for a few seconds that felt like minutes and began to follow him.

The others had observed this and were amazed at the short scene that was taking place in front of them. This had led to Yugi's attention. He moved his body to a normal sitting position and returned his head to its normal position. Yugi tilted his head slightly and thought about taking the time to look at everyone in the room. When he was finished with his mental sorting he got up without the others noticing anything and walked past them. He made up his mind to stroll over to Marik because at the moment Malik wasn't in his sensible mood in contrast to his darker self. He wanted to help both of them. So he nudged Marik lightly and motioned for him to follow him. Without striving again, he did so and followed him.

Yami was perky when the two left the room because he could well imagine what his aibou was up to and took this as an example to try the same with malik. Because it is easier when another hikari comes to a Yami and helps him to show how best to be / be / help his own hikari. Whereby he helped that another conversation between him and Malik won't start like before.Yami sat down on Ryou's now empty seat, loosened his own posture and started talking again. Their conversation had a bumpy start, but it quickly subsided and turned in the direction of Vertändniss as Malik recklessly mentioned his problems. His yami tried to convince him on the contrary, just as he tries to show things from marik's point of view with some things, but this was difficult for him because he couldn't get it across because it didn't come from himself. At the end of the conversation he had malik so far that they put the topic on the ice for so long until Marik combs Yugi. Malik agreed that if marik came into the room that he would hear him and would like to hear what he had to say from his own mouth, since he had previously ignored his request and refused to listen to his opinion.

In the meantime when Yami and Malik were talking, Marik and Yugi were planning to talk as well, only that they would get on in a slightly different way. At the beginning yugi Marik had indicated to sit down on one of the chairs while he decided to make a green tea and to get a drink for Marik as well. Since he didn't know which one he would prefer, he rummaged through his memory to remember what Malik liked to drink and then took out exactly the opposite for Marik. Although he didn't really understand that it was right, he assumed that he was resorting to the classic. So after his brewed black tea he took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator. He served the drink to marik who thanked him with a smile and said thanked him while he grabbed the opposite seat to sit down. marik could well imagine why Yugi ordered him to another room and was once again amazed but also grateful for the help. Marik thanked the light hesitantly and sipped his cool drink. For Yugi this was a matter of course, which is why he made a nodding smile and the word "no problem" uttered.

After a couple of sips of the hops, Marik began to try to eat something that would demand more than his stubborn good side. He began to open to him in a way, but only as much as it was necessary. He asked yugi the things that he couldn't regulate with himself, and Bakura couldn't help either. Yugi is happy to answer his questions. Marik mentioned, for example, that he doesn't know how to be towards his light, because he thought no matter how honest he was with him, Malik would still reject him, which would make him fear who this would happen. Their conversation went on for a long time and some encouraging solutions emerged. But at some point towards the end of the dive he couldn't help himself when a thought struck him that prompted him to ask yugi again what he could do to make everything good for him. Whereupon Yugi with a good-natured smile gave him a helpful approach how he can at least make Malik behave skeptical about his own thinking. Yugi slowly ended their conversation so as not to keep the others waiting in the room next door. He took Marik again to the side to hand him something from the cupboard. He handed it to him and nodded to move ahead.

Marik came into the room on the way to his seat without looking at his light, but his way drove directly past Malik, which is why he openly held out his hand to him, which yugi thought it could get his attention. "Here!" That's all that came out of Marik's mouth. Which left Malik slightly surprised but he had accepted it with thanks anyway. Marik could only grin and gave him a hectic, happy nod with an expressive request. This time yami malik gave a little push forward by signaling something to him with a hand sign. So that he should now get into marik's action. Since Yami was still sitting next to Malik, he had felt it was better to give both of them a little space and somt left the coutch and grabbed his happy-looking Aibou with him.

A shimmering shadow began to envelop malik's eyes, but his voice was different than when you looked at it. The little "t-thanks!" the flea in his mouth was only spoken rather gently to hide his emotions. But even this made Marik a little happier inside. He couldn't help but sit next to his other half just to pull him into a hug that was unusual for you. Malik's eyes shot up at this unexpected action but despite reluctance there was something in him that felt soothing, he didn't like it, it was so unknown and new normal he only knew something from his sister but from his vicious other half it was different again. It made him give in and at least accept the hug.

In them something like a strong touching force was emitted that neither of them had known before. There were two opposing feelings, one that radiated warmth and the other that appeared ice cold. The radiant pure warmth of the sun makes one of you feel good and perfect while the other got the inner feeling as if his skin was on fire that are only trying to tear him apart, although it was so uncomfortable he could tell that the heat was inside flowing through him feels as if she were part of him. The same happened with the ice-cold feeling, only that this time the dark side felt in complete cold bafand and bleak leeers. If the little light by his side weren't there right now, he wouldn't feel complete. The lighter half of both, however, got a comforting boost of the cold, into his heated fiery warmth, in order to dull them in which he was currently located, the cooling made it more bearable and to get used to the new temperature change.

Feeling this within made her withdraw from the embrace. There was gasp and gasp smoking from both sides while they forcibly clung to their own clothes at heart level. You didn't need many words to understand what had happened or what it was. They understood well that there was probably a mutual reaction of their bodies which this triggered when they hugged each other, so it ended up being a new task for them and it was up to the two of them to deal with it. And this time there was no no because this time you are not as a person with two faces on earth but as two different people who are supposed to cheer each other like the others, one who is now to be seen as Hikari and the other as Yami. And no more than a living other personality.

"Marik! You know I don't trust you"

"Yup, I know that"

"But ... I guess I can learn to deal with it as long as you don't try anything stupid"

"Me too ... thank you ... my Hikari"

While Marik and Malik had found their own way to find a new start and that even with a little help, Bakura Murrich is now after Ryou to achieve this. He came up estimated 3 minutes delayed so that he still had enough field of view to see his counterpart to localize its direction. As far as Bakura can assume that his light was running in a rather quieter area where no people would lurk, which in Ryou's case was not so much choice, he had it easy to narrow down all the known places that this would meet . After several tricky ways that this environment possessed, bakura had lost his light from sight but he knew exactly where he was. Which did not make him too surprised by this fact. Bakura stopped briefly at the cemetery only to grimace and then walk through the large wide gates of the courtyard. He strolled through the cemetery to see all the innumerable flowers and graves. He remembered all the times he saw his host walk here. As soon as he remembered it was the same as before and nothing had changed. There was still the dead silence, the smell of all the rotten corpses and at night there would certainly still be the wonderful, scary atmosphere in the air that he loved so much. His feet moved in the meantime when he was thinking about his goal forever. After walking a few more graves, he noticed that there was a disturbance in the calm of the air. The feeling stretched like small stitches that pierced the silence again and again and you get the feeling that the silence causes your head pain only to surrender to the disturbance.

He stopped only to look around but everything is the same and no ryou in sight. His stature pulled himself together and prepared to hit one of the stones against it when he got the feeling of screaming everything out of himself. He was with his fist, which was only millimeters from his point of impact, to calm his nerves, but when he heard a very slight sniff from one direction, his hand stopped abruptly. His movements slowed down throughout his body and his heart muscle began to beat a little more regulated. His head began to clear and stepped closer to the sobbing smoke, more tense but also frowning. What he assumed is him.

Ryou couldn't hold back, he had to mourn and let out his feelings that had plagued him for a long time. Actually, he shouldn't cry, he hadn't had a reason to, but deep inside there were all hidden emotions that he couldn't hold out for long. And the breaking point was now. He sat on his knees in the grass with his head bowed so that his white pony hid his eyes and only parts of the tears are visible. When the tears reached their climax, it felt to him inside as if he was choking on the seeping drops, as if knots were forming in his trachea so that there was no place for any substance to drain, so it sounded like sobbing. His eyes were clouded with watery spots, he masked his perception when he only paid attention to the falling substance that was now beginning to stain the ground. The only thing he still noticed her somehow was that one thing was not lingering with him. Although he thought it was him, as he could feel a slight pull in his side. He had the hope that it was not so and yet this londrous presence did not disappear. Around him, the air felt very heavy in his estimation, as if he couldn't breathe, which just made the howling sound even more dull. He quickly noticed a little jerk on his side again, but this time it wasn't as uncomfortable as the first but it felt as if his soul was greeted with a more pleasant coldness that soothed his inner turmoil.

Immediately next to Ryou's right side, Bakura was also kneeling on the grass and with his hands and arms next to him. he looked into his lighter half face to watch the waterfall stain Ryou's face. He just couldn't help but lift one of his arms to touch one of Ryou's cheeks to wipe the flood away. He himself was amazed at how quickly he switched from anger to ... care. What made him grin at the thought of why he was doing this because the reason was kneeling right next to him. Bakura straightened up to continue on the way but he stopped himself when he saw Ryou voluntarily turning his face in his direction. Bakura looked into the eyes of his little light, for many of them his brown eyes for the first time, which she let out in the twilight and so you could see his tears that went back but that were still sticking to his face, the traces were obvious. When he looked at her like that, a new feeling overflowed him that seemed unknown to him, it felt so ... warm. Ryou's tears faded and his face went back to the tombstone. Both sat in silence next to each other. Bakura didn't like it and went ahead because it looked like the moment was right. "I'm sorry ..." Bakura whispered to Ryou. Which slightly confused Ryou. "what do you mean by that?" a frown came over the yami his face. "I mean that I regret a lot of what happened earlier, just like the things I did! And for being back for an unknown reason, I thought that I want to / can / will make amends." came out of his voice with full glory. "Why are you telling me that? You know that I can't hate whoever you don't even after you've done all these horrible acts!" End came Ryou with a slight smile on his face whose head has meanwhile been turned back to bakura. "Huh?" said a stunned Yami, "I mean that I'm not really mad at you or whatever, it wouldn't be me!" "But why don't I understand I hurt you, I hurt your friends and I hurt everyone you like and loved, including yourself. Why are you so forgiving then?" "That's the point, I don't forgive you but I understand why you did this and you get my sympathy for that. " Yami bakura was amazed by this. He lowered his head himself so that his face is shaded by his pony. Ryou looked up to see this and let out another smile only to approach his yami and give him a light hug.

Bakura was happy about Ryou's confession and allowed him to hang on to him. he would enjoy the moment of peaceful silence around you before it is interrupted and you still have to go back to go to the other two yami and hikari couples. He could feel the warmth of the other in this embrace for a long time and how enlightening he felt, as if his body had missed this closeness and was now on fire with all tangible kindness. This felt good, but he still had to get used to all the stuff that was normal for everyone. He ended up saying "... thank you Hikari". Then he pushed Ryou back slightly. After an immediate 5 minutes they broke up and stood up to accept the way back to the Hikari resistance. On the way home, another question came to Bakura's mind. "hey ... Yadanoushi?" "hmmm?" "why did you cry earlier?" "oh, uhhh, it wasn't bad, it was just something like pent-up feelings that didn't have to go outside" "are you sure" a nod came as an answer and the rest was left behind because it seemed obvious that no one wanted to rummage through. But to bakura's counter he could guess why ryou chose the place.

Even if it didn't work or look like that, both couples had at least accepted the other in their vicinity in their own way and even let them linger in their vicinity. It would be a long journey, full of gatherings and arguments aimed at making peace.
