Joy: Okay, I know I promised Pieces of the Puzzle, but I can't get that one out just yet. But I know everyone needs something to read, so I chose to type this up. I may add more, not sure. PotP is taking up a lot of my time writing wise. But everyone seemed to love my other Bakura story, so I decided to do another one. This one isa Journal type story.


Ichi

Okay, I cannot for the life of me believe I am actually writing in this thing. Ryou gave me this…journal…because he said I do not show my feelings enough or some sentimental shit like that. Oh well. Might as well give it a whirl, if nothing more just to shut the kid up for a while.

… Damn Ryou and his chibi eyes…

This morning I made a very big mistake. I woke up.

Ryou was downstairs eating breakfast…without the Ring… Why in Ra's name do I put up with him? Anyway, I gave him a most explicit order to NEVER go anywhere with the Ring. I mean, if some evil asshole were to come up and try to take his life, how was I going to send the fool to the Shadow Realm if Ryou did not have the damn Ring on?

Honestly, I do not really care, but I have to have somewhere for my spirit to reside and I promised Ryou I would not try to take that bratty Kaiba kid's body anymore. Why did I promise all this you may ask?

Because of those damn chibi eyes… They are so Ra damned annoying and they are also the only things on this forsaken planet I detest as much as the Pharaoh no baka. And that is saying something.

Anyway, Ryou was upset after our talk so I left him alone and went to watch TV. I found myself embroiled in those cartoon shows. Yes, I watch cartoons. You have a problem, too bad. Try to laugh and you will out for yourself what the Shadow Realm looks like.

So there I am, watching cartoons and this one show comes on: The Smurfs. It was on some cartoon channel I was watching. I have been studying the show, actually. And no, it is not dumb to study cartoons. You find the most interesting ways to torment mortals on cartoons. Most of my most brilliant ideas came from them. All evil beings could benefit from watching cartoons. Try it yourself, but do not steal my ideas. I am a thief, not you, Ra damn it! Ahem. The Smurfs. Quite an interesting show to say the least. I have made one overall observation while watching the show.

Smurfs are evil.

Do not fucking look at me like that damn it! They are! They are blue abominations that were sent to plague mortality. They are perhaps even as evil as myself. Let me give you some reasons for this observation.

One. They are blue. Blue things are already evil by nature.

Two. They always travel in groups and thinking 'happy' thoughts while still tormenting the supposedly evil wizard and other "evil" people. I mean, how many times does Gargamel have to fall into the pond or go through his roof before people see the truth! The only reason Gargamel chases the Smurfs is because they are always getting in his way and making him look like a jackass. I bet he was perfectly happy before they even existed. Hell, if I saw a Smurf and I was in need of some money, I would catch it and sell it too! The man wears rags and these filthy blue menaces run around happy-go-lucky and with plenty of food and water to feed their despicable army!

Three. They wear the same thing EVERY DAMN DAY! WTF!

Four. Jokey Smurf and the Bomb Surprise Gifts. Enough said.

Five. There is only ONE damned girl Smurf in the army. I do not know if I have to go into the whole girl/boy thing, but is this natural? Does that one girl get all those guys? Does she have them line up outside her door or something every night? How many can she handle? A lot apparently.

So, in short, the Smurfs are the only creatures shorter than the Pharaoh's hikari that I cannot stand. I find myself rooting for Gargamel every damn episode and praying to the Gods that he FINALLY catches those blasted Smurfs and turns them into gold.

Enough said.


Joy: There you are. Bakura's opinons of course. The titles of the chapters are gonna be Japanese numbers. 'Ichi' means one, btw. It counts up from that for every chapter.
