Chapter 14- A Different Person
BAKURA'S POV
"What?" They all said with confusion after I told them my plan.
"Ugh you morons!" I shouted. I was quite mad at them. "Let me get Ryou first I said." I closed my eyes, and the next thing I knew, I was in a hallway. I went to the two doors. One was completely white and look like total innocence, and the other one was pure black. Can you guess which one is Ryou's and which one is mine? If you guessed that the white one was Ryou's: You're right. I went straight into his room, and he was on his white bed just laying down. He was smiling, and looking at the picture of Samalia. I chuckled to myself.
You have no clue who she REALLY is Ryou. She's just using you. She thinks you're nothing.
"What are you doing here?" Ryou said very sweetly & not mad at all. I was a little startled.
"Oh, Ryou you're actually talking to me."
"Well, why wouldn't I!" He said.
"Look, we are going to her soul room to wake her up." His eyes got big right when I said "her".
"Y..You mean S..Sam?" He said shaky. I rolled my eyes.
"Yes Ryou, we are going to SAM'S SOUL ROOM." I said making myself clear.
"Uh….uh. I want to….but isn't that rude?" I shook my head. It was very funny.
"Not really. We are trying to help her to wake her up." I said trying to sound convincing.
"Well since you put it THAT way, I'll come." He said cheery.
"Great." I said. I left the room, and went to my room across the hall. The next thing I knew I was on the floor.
"Oh there you are Bakura!" Yugi said. For Ra's sake he needed to stop being so damn annoying.
"Ya, Ya. So are you coming or not?" They all took a step backwards.
"I'm in." Said a voice. Ryou started walking towards me. "I want to be part of this." He said.
"Well, if Ryou is in, I'm in." Yugi said. Then one at a time, everyone was suddenly joined in. Even his royal pain in the ass was in. Can't believe THAT. And the reason was: We all wanted to know more. We wanted to see the true feelings of Sam. I saw part of it. It was amazing, and I want it back. We needed to catch up. It had been 3,000 years.
"Are you ready?" Said the Pharaoh. He held up the millennium key. I STILL had no clue how the hell he got that. It didn't matter, because we all wanted to go. We crouched over the body, and Yami pressed the key against her forehead. The next thing I knew, I was in a room. It looked like the Pharaoh's when I hid there after I lost the duel to Marik's Yami. It was a room with stairs, and MANY rooms. It was somewhat of a maze.
"Catch me as I fall. Say you're here and it's all over now."
What the hell was THAT?
"Yami, what's going on?" Yugi said nervously. "And why does this look like your soulroom?"
"Yugi, I don't know." The Pharaoh said.
"No one's here and I fall into myself"
"You guys, it's coming from here! C'mon follow the noise!" Joey said.
This truth drives me, into madness! I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away. If I will it all away!"
We went up the stairs down to a hallway, and that's when we discovered her. There she was. She was in her room (like the last time I saw her) but she was wearing all black. A black tank top, black pants, and there was a black jacket on the floor. She was sitting on the floor listening to her music. Her iPod was plugged into some speakers, so she could listen to it out loud. Her position was just sitting there in pretzel form. It looked like she was crying. And of course, she had her little "disguise" on. I rolled my eyes when I saw that.
She then took her remote, and hit the "pause" button.
"Oh, I wasn't expecting company!" She said. She turned, and looked at all of us. She smiled at us, and waved to us to come in.
"Please, please! Come in!" She said. She then snapped her fingers, and chairs appeared.
"Have a seat." She said cheerfully.
"So what brings you guys here?" She asked.
"Well, we wanted to know why you locked yourself in your soul room." I said a little mad.
She just stared at me with a puzzled look on her face. "I didn't 'lock' myself in here. I just needed thinking time." She smiled again.
"Oh, I see." Yugi said. There was a slight pause.
"Do you guys want a tour?" She asked.
"That would be awesome!" Joey said.
"Yea, I would really like that." Ryou said.
"Okay one second." She said. She grabbed the remote and pressed "Play". "Hmm…. Let's try a different song." She skipped to the next song. "No, not 'Because Of You'. Oh how about this one? Ya this one is probably my favorite. 'Taking Over Me'." She said. The music played throughout the whole place.
"Okay, let's start the tour! Just one thing: If there is a door with a red mark, don't go in." She said. She got up, and we followed her. She shut the door, and began walking downstairs.
"Okay, all these rooms hold something important. Either memories, or items, or they are rooms. Just to let you know the memories are good AND bad. Just to warn you." She said and smiled.
While we explored she just stood, and watched us. The next song would play in the background. Some of the songs were: "My Immortal", "Everybody's Fool", "Surrender", "Bad Boy", "Bring Me to Life", "Whisper", "Haunted", and "Addicted".
"Help!" I heard a cry. I recognized the cry, it was Ryou's voice. I ran over to him. He was hanging on a piece of the floor. He was about to drop into darkness.
"Help!" He said. "Please!" He was crying.
"Ryou!" I shouted, and helped him up. Sam was just looking at the two of us.
"You shouldn't be in this room." She said slightly angry,
"Why not?" I said mad at her.
"Some of these rooms are PROTECTED by traps! If the door has a red mark, that means DON'T GO IN! I THOUGHT I MADE MYSELF CLEAR!"
"Oh I'm sorry." Ryou said as he hung his head in shame. Her eyes got wide, and her expression turned soft.
"It's okay. I just didn't want anyone to get hurt." She said and gave a slight smile.
"Oh."
We left the room, and "Sam" was just standing there. She had a sad look on her face. It looked like boredom.
"Well, I think I'm done. Ready to go?" Mr. Cheery Yugi Face said.
"Yup" They all said.
"Well, thanks for visiting!" Sam said.
"No problem." Ryou said.
"I'm gonna get some sleep, and then I'll be up." Sam said.
"Okay! Just glad that you're okay." Tea said.
"Bye" They all said.
I didn't leave. We had some "Catching Up" to do.
"You don't remember me, but I remember you." The song said.
Sam went back to her room, and I followed her. She continued listening to the song. She was sad, and I could tell.
"Why so sad?" I asked. She jumped and looked at me.
"What the hell do you want?" She asked.
"As your little song says 'Wanting you'. Maybe I want you now." I said, and gave a smirk.
"Well, maybe I don't!" She said.
"Now don't be like that Samalia." Her eyes got big when I said her name.
"Do me a favor Bakura, and listen to the song 'Everybody's Fool'. That song fits you too perfect. Especially when it comes from my view." She said. And narrowed her eyes.
"I'll do it, if you explain everything."
"How bout you leave me then hell alone?" She said harshly.
"Why so mean today?" I asked.
"Hmm…. Let's see: The guy I promised NEVER to see again comes into my room, and then kisses me. Then he goes into MY OWN SOUL ROOM without permission. Now he is frikkin stalking me! Do I need to go any further?" She said. She was very mad.
"I don't understand you Samalia. I thought you liked it when I kissed you. I thought you were happy to see me. But now you just seem mad all the time."
"It's called protection." She said. Her eyes like darts.
"Why do you need protection" I asked.
"Because… never mind." She said as she was walking away. I grabbed her am.
"You're not going anywhere. Now tell me why." I said.
"I need protection because…I don't want to get hurt again by you or anyone." She said sadly. She was in tears now. I felt sorry for her again. She wasn't a wreck or delusional, she was broken. And I felt bad. I was part of the cause for her brokenness, and I didn't want to make her even more broken. I brought her close to me, to hug her. She embraced me tightly.
"Have you ever loved someone so much that when they were gone, you felt like you couldn't breathe without them?" She asked. There was a slight pause. "That's how I felt."
We went back in her main room, and sat down. We did have a lot of catching up to do.
