Bakura Proves Himself

By Sailor Phoenix1997

Sara stuffed a few things into her backpack and slung it over her back. She walked to her cousins' cabins and shoved the doors open. Kim was snoring almost as loudly as an elephant in her room. Kiki almost sound like a jackhammer and a chainsaw on full blast in a music studio. Sara had to cover her ears to try to block out the Who-Can-Be-Louder-Contest. Sara could feel the snoring in vibrating in her chest.

"Goodness knows what these two are doing with the blimp," she muttered to herself. She dared to move deeper into Kim's room. She shook her cousin awake and did the same with Kiki. Once they were out of bed and getting ready Sara sat down in a chiar that hadn't been knocked over by the snoring. "How did I fall asleep with all that racket?" She got up and left the blimp before Kim or Kiki could jump on her and start their morning screaming. Mokuba, Noah and Bakura were already outside and bakura was too preoccupied with trying to show the boys a technique to get the soccer ball from the ground to the head to notice Sara coming at them.

Sara sat down on a log with her elbow on her knee as she watched Mokuba give the trick a try. Suddenly Sara could hear a high-pitched ringing. It was quiet like it was miles away but it seemed to be echoing in her ears. She rubbed her ear to try to rid herself of the annoying sound. The frequency changed and it sounded like the shrill noise one could hear when they turned on the television or had a headache.

"Is it just me or are those 'trees' getting closer?" Noah asked. The frequency kept changing in Sara's head as she looked in the direction that Noah was pointing at. Small maples and oaks did seem to have gotten closer. Sara grabbed her Summoner as Bakura took hold of his Ring. Sara ran up so she was next to Bakura. If you didn't know better you would've thought they were related.

"Noah. Mokuba. Get behind us. Now." The two preteens obeyed without hesitation. Sara started snarling as she saw three trees move closer. "We know you're there! Come out if you're not cowards!" Sara snarled as the familiar face of Austin appeared. "Seriously? You again? Let me make one thing clear to you! Seto had nothing to do with your betrothed! Or you're country or whatever it is you're so upset about. I don't remember! And to be honest I don't quite care right now! I've got an impending headache and I'd rather not have to take it out on you!" Ryan stepped out from behind another fake maple. Sara moaned. But the third that appeared was big and burly. His hair was black as night and he wore black sunglasses that made him look like a movie star want-to-be. His black jacket was a little much saying as the temperature was nearly cooking Sara despite what she was wearing. He was dressed entirely in black and thick combat boots looked nearly tough enough to crush a skull under. In his hands was a small remote like for a model airplane. He turned the dial and the frequency changed in Sara's head.

"Careful Morticai," Ryan said as he crossed his arms over his chest, "The boss won't be happy if you hurt his little sis."

"For the millonth time. I'm not Olivander's sister!" she screamed with her fists clenched. Morticai turned the dial a little more.

"There we go." Mokuba and Noah winced as the frequency hit their ears.

"What is that thing and what do you want?" Sara demanded furiously.

"We're after a few souls here, princess," Austin said. Sara took a quick breath but it wasn't noticed by any of the boys.

"And this," Morticai gestured to the remote in his hand, "THis affects frequency levels in the air. RIght now it's on a knockout level." Sara dropped her shoulders and looked around. She started laughing.

"Check your batteries. No one's knocked out here." Morticai smiled.

"It rebounds off of steel and then knocks out it's target, princess." Sara's eyes widened. The entire inside of the blimp was made of steel. And Seto and her cousins were still in there.

"Leave them out of this!" Bakura shouted enraged. The Ring around his neck shone for a second and the hanging bits rattled. Sara smiled at her new friend as he started shouting about how involving innocents was cowardly and wrong.

"Do I look like I'm interested in a lecture from you?" Morticai asked. "I'm here to collect a soul. THe boss wants her's. His orders were clear as day."

"Well. You've got another thing coming! You'll be Dueling me!" Bakura shouted as he grabbed his Duel Disk.

"Bakura," Sara said a little worried. Bakura winked at her and drew his hand.

Morticai had decided to Duel Bakura. Bakura's life points had barely been phazed but Morticai would've needed a miracle in order to win.

"My turn. Draw!" Bakura looked at his hand. "Change of Heart, Monster Reborn, Just Deserts, Trigon, and Ancient Elf. Me and my need for a new deck. I hardly know how to use these cards." Morticai had Dream CLown and Saggi the Dark Clown out on the field. He also had one card face down and the Seal of Oricalcos in use.

"He's only got clowns in his deck. I wonder what happened to him," Sara thought to herself.

"I summon Ancient Elf in Attack mode! ANd I'll have him attack your Saggi the Dark Clown!"

"Activate Trap! Destruction of Dragons!" It didn't stop Bakura's Elf from destroying Morticai's Saggi the Dark Clown.

"Ancient Elf's a spellcaster type. Why play a trap for dragons?" Morticai smirked.

"It infects all dragon or warrior type monsters with a deadly virus."

"So?"

"All dragon or warrior type. And in this game doesn't stop at cards." Black smoke flowed from the card and filled the Dueal area and poured a little ways towards their audience. Sara covered her mouth as she started coughing. SHe fell to her knees as her coughs shook her entire body.

"Sara!" the boys shouted as she trembled during the few seconds the coughing ceased.

"See what I mean?"

"You animal! Leave her out of this!" BAkura demanded.

"You'll have to beat me," Mortacai said with a smile. Bakura placed his hand on his deck.

"If you're done I will!"

"FIne then. Turn end."

"My turn. Draw! And I play La Jinn the Mystical Genie of the Lamp!" La Jynn rose in a pillar of green smoke. "And I'll have him target your Dream Clown!" As soon as the Clown was gone La Jynn disappeared and the Seal closed in on Morticai. Bakura ran out of the Seal and over to a still coughing Sara. A bright flash of green light shot towards the sky and Morticai fell face-first into the ground.

Sara's coughing ceased a few moments later. She spent a couple of minutes catching her breath before she went running into the blimp. She ran right into the wall but kept running as pain shot through her side. Seto pushed himself up and opened his eyes. He'd been looking for Sara near the blimp's exit when a loud ringing had knocked him out.

"Seto!" He looked up just in time to catch Sara as she fell into his arms.

"Hey there stranger," he said teasingly. She squeezed him tightly before she pulled away.

"I was worried." Mokuba and Noah ran up to the couple and wrapped their arms around their brother's neck. Bakura stood around the corner and smiled. He closed his eyes and leaned against the wall. He felt a hand around his wrist and looked to see Sara. "Come on. You're as much of this family as I am." She pulled him to the others before he could say anything.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Even if you're not blood related you've got a Millennium Item. And we've got to stick together. Got it?" Seto smiled. He recognized that tone. It was the one Sara used when scolding her brothers.

Hey everyone. It's Sailor Phoenix1997 here. I was thinking lately that there are so many good anime artists especially when it comes to Yugioh. I would send my ideas to Japan for Yugioh's creators for Seto's happy ending but they're not doing his original series anymore. So I was wondering if there are any artists who're willing to draw this stuff up like episodes. I know a few people who'd be interested in seeing those things. I talk about my books with boys at my lunch table and they always tell me they wish they could see it. So. If any of you want to draw up my stories and put them up on Youtube or something I'd be totally fine with it. I can't do it because 1) I don't have a youtube account and my parents won't let me get one and 2) I am awful when it comes to drawing.
