I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh. All rights to respected owners. It is just a father son story with out of character Bakura. NO YAOI AT ALL. No matter how much you may think it is, it's NOT. Flames and constructive criticism are very welcome. Please enjoy. Rate and review. Saving Nny will be updated very soon. Sorry for the wait on that.
Chapter one.
Ryou sat in his dark room sniffling. The shadows cast an eerie light on the walls making nightmarish shapes appear and vanish as if they were hunting the boy. Ryou was scared for he was all alone in the apartment. His father had left the white haired nine year old to look after himself once again as he was headed back to America. Ryou cried into his pillow in the darkness, scared and lonely. Abandon. His father left for work all the time but, every time he left Ryou felt even more abandon than before. The only object proving his father had even came home was a strange gold colored ring with a triangle in the middle and some odd looking spikes on the bottom. Ryou's dad had left it because he had dubbed it worthless. Fools gold. Ryou had taken it because it was the only thing of his fathers he could cling to. Now it sat unceremoniously on the desk reminding the poor boy of his sad fate. How could his father leave a nine year old boy to fend for himself? If Ryou had looked behind him, he might have noticed the shadows forming into a shape of something. Or someone. The shadowy figure looked around at his new surroundings. What was this place? How did he get here? Then he noticed the sniffling figure on the bed. Slowly he inched closer. Closer still. Dim lighting from the moon outside the window revealed a young boy laying on a bed. The moonlight turned his white hair to silver. Why was this mortal sad? The shadowy figure wondered why he even cared. Perhaps it reminded him of someone or something long ago? The figure crept forward to peer down at the child. It appeared he was still unnoticed by him. So he decided to make his presence known.

"why are you upset?"He asked.

Ryou looked up at the sound of a voice. His tears dried and he began to shiver as he slowly worked up the courage to turn around. Maybe the voice was just his imagination. After all he did here it in his head. But his worst fear was confirmed when he turned around and saw a shadowy figure looking down on him. He began to quake and tears brimmed in his eyes. The figure backed off a couple steps. Something about him intimidated Ryou and scared him. Even in the moonlight the figure was still nearly as dark as the room itself.

"W-Who are you?"Ryou whimpered sobbed.

The figure studied Ryou as if inspecting a dangerous animal. The boy had white fuzzed out hair with coco brown eyes. He was wearing blue jeans and a blue button up shirt. The boy appeared to be scared of him. Well it isn't everyday a stranger finds himself in your house is it? He decided to answer the boys question, provided he answered his.

"Bakura."He said.

The boy looked slightly less afraid now that the potential threat had a name. But he still coward on the bed in fear.

"I-I'm Ryou. W-Why are you here Bakura?"Ryou said, voice shaking.

"Why are you sad?"Bakura countered.

"My dad left for America again."Ryou said.

"That's all! That's nothing to cry about! You still have your mother to watch you!"Bakura said.

He couldn't believe what he was hearing. The boy was crying because his father left for a little while!?

"M-my mother's dead."Ryou said shaking silently.

The room fell quiet once again as Bakura assessed the situation. Did that mean the boy was left alone to fend for himself? Who would abandon there young child like that and run off. Was he abandon for good?

"Surely your being watched by someone? How long will your dad be away?"He snapped rather angrily.

"No. Dad usually leaves me hear alone."Ryou said sadly.

The dark figures eyes glowed blood red as rage won out. Bakura was very mad. Madder than ever before. Ryou hid under the blankets in fear. Bakura was scaring him more than anything ever had.

"How dare anyone leave there young children alone like this! Ra help him if we ever meet because i swear i will feed him to the shadows! Ra dam his soul!"Bakura nearly shouted.

He then went on to curse in several language's most of witch Ryou failed to understand. Finally, he calmed down enough to confront the boy. Ryou shivered as Bakura sat on the edge of his bed. He wasn't sure why he cared or why he decided to protect him. Maybe he felt sorry for him? He had no idea why, but he felt as if he should father the boy in his real fathers absence. So he gently reached out to him. Ryou pulled away frightened. But it soon became apparent that Bakura was offering him comfort. He let himself be pulled closer to him. Bakura dried his tears and patted him on the shoulder. He made the biggest decision of his life at that moment. He was going to father the boy.
End.
