Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh (seriously go look at the six other chapters)
It had been two days since that day at the carnival and Brooke was now knocking on Bakura's door. It had been five minutes. "Figures he tells me to come over today and then doesn't answer." She muttered to herself, turning to leave but then the door opened.
"Hello?" Ryou answered.
"Oh hey Ryou I'm Brooke, we talked on the phone. Bakura invited me over." Brooke explained.
"Oh hello! Sorry it took me so long to answer the door. I was sleeping, please do come in." He replied, putting his hand behind his back looking shy.
"It's fine. I just wanted to see if Bakura was around." She said entering the apartment. It was nice and to Brooke's surprise clean "Most likely because of Ryou."She thought to herself because she could not picture Bakura cleaning.
"Actually he's not available now sorry." He said looking a bit sad.
"That's alright, I'll just get going, but before I leave I have a question that's been bothering me." She said and Ryou sighed.
"What is it?"He asked.
"Well, when I was at the carnival with Bakura he was acting like you around Yugi and the others I asked him about it and he told me he would explain if I came over today.." She trailed off as Ryou was holding his head. "Are you okay?" She asked.
"I'm fine, just a headache. I'll tell you but you'll probably think I'm insane." He said.
"I bet I won't and if you are that's okay! I'm a bit insane too, and I know Bakura is." She tried to lighten the suddenly gloomy mood.
"Yeah, I guess you're right, well it's like this my father is a curator for the Domino City Museum, he went on a trip to Egypt and brought back this ring," He said pointing to the Millennium Ring. "He gave it to me and soon strange things started to happen to me, that's when Bakura spoke to me see he's a spirit who was inside the spirit. He used to be a tomb robber in Egypt. Yugi, who you met, has the Millennium Puzzle and has the spirit of the puzzle, but they have a better relationship." Ryou explained shortly. Brooke was pretty shocked.
"Wow, I can't believe it." Brooke said.
"See, I knew you would probably think I'm crazy." Ryou said with a small smile.
"No, actually in a weird way it makes sense, like why Bakura is scared to be himself in front of Yugi, the reason he didn't know how to play rock, paper scissors, and wanted to know about my bracelet." She said shrugging though she was still surprised, it not every day you find out your friend is a spirit (Oh yes they are friends!).
"I'm not afraid of the pathetic Pharaoh and his stupid friends." Bakura said apparently taking control.
"Hey, I wasn't done talking to Ryou! Are you always this rude? Never mind don't answer that, I know the answer. Anyways I think the Pharaoh could kick your—"She was interrupted.
"Ryou is used to it, as for what you were about to say about the Pharaoh, your wrong and if you ever try to say he is better than me, I will kill you." He said smirking.
"Friends don't kill other friends, besides you couldn't kill me if you tried because I have Special Man on my side!" She said grinning.
"What the hell is Special Man?" He asked.
"He's the coolest superhero ever!" She exclaimed, laughing.
"Ryou is pretty up to date on most comics, and I admit I read a lot of them and I have never heard of him. What are his powers?" He wondered.
"Well he can fall up stairs, he can't fly, he has special vision, and a pancake attack. Oh and his catch phrase is "Oh my Golly!" She said and then began laughing really hard.
"What kind of superhero is that? He can't fly and falls up stairs and you think he can stand up to me." Bakura said smiling.
"Nah, Special Man wouldn't stand a chance he would probably faint. I was bored one day and decided to make a superhero." Brooke said shrugging.
"And you succeeded in making one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of." Bakura replied smirking.
"Don't mock Special Man only my friend and I can do that, besides he's awesome." Brooke responded, sticking out her tongue. "Anyways back to this whole you're an Egyptian sprit thing I just wanted to say you could be a bit nicer to Ryou and that I think it's kind of cool to have spirit for a friend." She said.
"We are not friends."Bakura said.
"Looks like someone is in denial and I'm not talking about the river." She replied and laughed, Bakura just shook his head.
"That wasn't even that funny." He said smiling.
"Yes it was and you know it!" She exclaimed happily.
"Also, I'm not a nice person therefore I will not be nice to Ryou." He replied.
"Whatever, I think you are somewhat nice or else you wouldn't have invited me to the carnival and here." She pointed out.
"I only invited you to the carnival because it would be something Ryou would do if he made a new friend and I invited you here because…" Well he was going to come up with an excuse but he really didn't know why he invited her to the apartment.
"Admit it you like to hang out with me." She said smirking.
"You don't have a ghost of a chance of ever hearing me say I like to hang out with you." He said seriously.
"A ghost of a chance? Where did you get that from?" She asked laughing.
"It doesn't matter." He replied shrugging.
Looking at her watch, Brooke's eyes widen."Crap I got to go, thanks for having me over and explaining everything to me friend." She said grinning.
"Were not...never mind. I'll see you later." He replied with a slight wave.
"Good you're getting out of denial. I'll have to sing the FUN song next time." She said laughing.
"The FUN song?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
"It's from SpongeBob!" She stated thinking that was all the explanation it would need.
"What is SpongeBob?" He inquired.
"I forgot I'm with an ancient spirit, go ask Ryou or I'll tell you next time." She said heading out the door.
"Goodbye," He said.
"Bye-bye." She said waving.
