A: Akefia screwed his eyes and followed Ryou. "Hey! Stop!" He followed the smaller one and frowned a bit... he shouldn't have been so harsh. "It's no use to run away from me... you don't know the city, boy... we did all of this already!" Following with a good amount of speed, he got closer to Ryou and tried to grab his wrist.
R: "Stay away from me!" He looked from the corner of the eyes seeing how close he had gotten. He couldn't let him have the ring, Bakura or not it was his. Ryou looked ahead spotting a corner alleyway. He made a sharp turn skidding slightly before taking off down the dark alleyway determined to get away from the man.
A: For Ryou took a sharp turn he grabbed into space and growled lowly, dashing after him. "Why all of a sudden... I cannot let you go! And I told you I wouldn't!" Jumping over a chicken, that just ran into his way randomly, he grumbled and tried to make his legs run even faster. "Wait now! It's senseless to run!"
R: "Y-You just want the Ring! I-I won't let you have it!" He yelled making another turn only to skid to a stop. Dead end. This isn't good. Ryou looked around frightened. He turned around to run the other way only to have it blocked off by Akefia. He slowly backed up holding the ring close, quivering in fear.
A: "That is not true and you know that." He growled out and frowned at Ryou. "I didn't approach you... because of the ring..." He was out of breath. "And the running... is totally useless.. so just stand still... I won't rip it out of your hands, for Ra's sake..." He approached Ryou slowly. "Easy... okay."
R: Ryou slowly backed against the wall. His legs felt weak from running. He felt weak. Ryou slide down the wall into a sitting position clutching the ring close. "You can't have it, I won't let you have it..." He whispered choking back tears.
A: Akefia felt something deep in his heart hurt, before he sighed deeply and approached further, kneeling before the other one slowly and lying his hands on the other ones shoulders. "Allright... I'll not demand it... for now." He said, his expression determined. "Why are you panicking so hard?" He blinked. "I mean... of course you want to keep it... but it's not like I'd kill you... for it..."
R: Ryou looked up at him as the tears fall from his face. "I guess I should tell you the truth...Everything..." He says holding the ring close. "W-When I was 8 years old I w-was given this ring from my father as a present...he had gotten it from a dig here in Egypt...I-I didn't know at the time b-but...there was a spirit sealed away in the ring that had chosen me as it's host. W-When I became older the spirit started to take over my body to collect the millennium items...s-so he could summon s-someone...Zork..." Ryou clutched the ring looking down.
A: Holding Ryou's shoulders still it is finally the name Zork, that let him jerk back and let go of the other ones shoulders, turning pale. "What was the name you said?" He asked, hoping he just misunderstood the other one.
R: Ryou looked up slightly. "Z-Zork...T-The spirit, Bakura tired to b-bring Zork back." He shivered. Why was this man suddenly paler? Was Zork really that bad?
A: He stayed pale and felt his heart beat loudly in his chest. "I give you a good advice, Ryou..." He whispered. "Either give me the thing or throw it in the garbage... everything this brings is pain... nothing more... it was made out of pain of the pain of a hundred... and it will never do something else..." He avoided the question about Zork, which he knew coursed through the other ones head... oh yes, he knew the name alright. It was the creature he gave his soul to for the satisfying revenge he should get... and the villagers...
R: Ryou hugged the ring to the chest. "I-I..." Ryou lowered his head more trying to think. What should he do? He knew Bakura couldn't be in the ring at the moment, he couldn't. If Yami had went back to being the Pharaoh, who was Bakura? and where was he hiding? Ryou slowly pulling the ring from himself throwing it away from himself. He didn't want it near him if Bakura was still around. Ryou slowly hugged himself choking out small silent sobs.
B/A: Seeing the Ring thrown away from Ryou, Akefia felt a strangely numb feeling in his body. He leaned forward though, still having a hold on Ryou's shoulders and whispered right into the other ones ear. "Very good, pet..." He didn't find the reason why his lips spoke those words... and also in that more sinister tone, he used around people he didn't like. "I'll take good care of it, Ryou... I swear..." He felt his body lift and was shoved back somewhere, when he had the grip around Ryou's shoulders loosen, a grin lying on his face. Turning around the other one took the Ring up and looked over his shoulder towards Ryou. "Well done, host. You just came here... and you're already making friends... good... you'll stay on the right side, when you ditch that losers." He chuckled darkly.
R: Ryou's sobbing slowly stopped and he looked up. He just called him host. "N-No...N-No you can't be here..." His eyes widen in fear as he slowly slid up the wall. "W-What d-did you d-do with Akefia?" He whimpers softly.
B: Smiling at the Ring, caressing it with his thumb he finally turned around with Ryou's whimpers and his cruel face melted with a mocking display of affection. "Naww... little landlord, don't fret. Your little friend is good and healthy... I still need him at least..." Laying the Ring around his neck he walked back over to Ryou though kneeling in front of him, taking up his chin. "Though you know... how much I hate to see you disregard my orders, little one... I told you to never discard the Ring from that sweet neck..." A finger trailed over his skin. "And the instant you think me gone it went flying..." Bakura chuckled and cupped both of his cheeks. "You should know by now, that you will never... never ever will get rid of me..."
R: Ryou stared at him in fear shaking softly. He jerked his face out of his grasp. "D-Don't touch me!" He yelled pushing his away weakly before gracefully slipping away from him running down the alleyway determined to get away from him. He should have never let go of the ring. If he hadn't then Akefia would still be there...He would still be with him..
B: Chuckling he didn't move to get after Ryou, but his voice rose, impassive, calm, only a voice that the spirit could hold, but still let it sound creepy and everybody around him freeze and being attentive. "Of course, host... you can go wherever you like and do whatever you want to do... but you're lost... without me here... alone, lost... useless, like you were ever without me... and of course your friend is still with me." The darker and blazing violet eyes looked after Ryou. "So run as far as you like... I'll know where you are... but maybe you'll never find a way out?" He raised and got the dust off of his coat, folding his arms in front of his chest after that.
