Yuugi laughed not believing Vivian, "W….what are you talking about? You're just thinking too much, Vivian. At time like this we shouldn't worry and get out through the window…." He opened the window to find dark, purple, swirling, energy spinning around instead of the normal blue sky. Fluffy flapped its wings rapidly in the room in alarm. Yuugi was worried. He didn't know what was happening. Why couldn't they get out? What was going on?
Ryou gasped.
"I'll go and check the situation." Yuugi offered, running out of their room.
"Wait! Yuugi!" Ryou shouted and quickly followed behind. Vivian quickly tagged along as well. They opened the front door and walked out but ended up back in their old room before. "Why…are we here again?" asked Ryou.
Yuugi looked around, "Eh? Where's the landlady? She's gone!"
Ryou and Vivian's eyes suddenly went widen, "Yu….Yuugi, behind you!" Ryou cried out in fear, shockingly pointing behind his friend.
"Eh?" Yuugi slowly turned around and his eyes twitch in terror.
"Fresh human…meat…." A dark ghostly figure whispered holding a long sharp knife in their hand. A wide wicked smile spread across their face and they let out a loud evil laugh. It slowly walked towards Yuugi and his friends.
"I'M NOT HUMAN!" Vivian screamed and quickly transformed to her monster self and ran away from Yuugi and Ryou.
Yuugi quickly turned to Ryou, "Don't move! The best thing to do now is not to get separated…." But it was too late. The door from the room suddenly slid open and a dark black smoke drag Ryou into the darkness.
"Yuugi…save me…save me…." Ryou cried in fear, his hands was trying to reach out to Yuugi.
"RYOU!" Yuugi tried to grab his hand but Ryou was completely pulled into the dark smoke and the door shut close. "RYOU! RYOU!" Yuugi shouted, continuing to knock on the door but no one answer.
"Meat…fresh….human meat…" The ghostly figure was in front of Yuugi, "Fresh…." It smirked reaching for the boy. Yuugi's eyes widen and he held his breath. The figure suddenly squealed in pain when a grey feather had strike its hand.
A pair of arms was wrapped around Yuugi's waist, "Bakura! Why are you here?" Yuugi cried out in shock but was relief as well to see his friend.
"I was hanging out in this place when I felt a weird aura…." Bakura looked serious, "Come to think of it…these guys aren't considered monsters…." Three more dark gloomy ghostly figures appeared and were coming towards them.
Yuugi's eyes widen, "Could it be vengeful spirits?" He thought and he felt something touch his foot and screamed, clinging onto Bakura.
Bakura smirked and stamped onto the figure's hand who screeched in pain. He lifted Yuugi into his arms, "Let's go!" Yuugi held tight, "What? Have you fallen for me best friend?" Bakura grinned down at the boy.
"What?" Yuugi's face turned red for embarrassment.
"Oh come on! Don't be with Atemu anymore, be with me, I am a man you can rely on." Bakura's grin went wider as he continue to tease him.
Yuugi shook his head, "Why are talking about this now? I'm more worried about Ryou!"
"Ryou? He's here?" Bakura asked looking around the room, "Where is he?"
"The shadow took him. You have to save him!" Yuugi shouted.
Meanwhile, Yami and Joey went back to the lodge since Yami was worried about Yuugi. He and the others sure were taking a long time to get ready or else something must have happen. "Yami! This….." The lodge was now surrounded by mystery dark mist, "What is this….?" Joey tried to opened the door but his hand got reflected back, "Waaaa! I can't get close, like there's an impenetrable barrier surrounding the lodge!" Yami's eyes harden, "What's happening inside? Oi! Yug! Ryou!" Joey yelled out. The front door swung opened and a cat Vivian and Fluffy ran out.
"Vivian! Where are the other two?" Yami asked her.
She flung herself to Yami, "Ah….I was so scared, Yami." Her face went pale, "There was a very scary human-eating monster that attacked us!"
"Then what about Yug and Ryou?" Joey butted in on her story.
She shrugged, "I don't know."
"Let's find them quick." Yami said giving a nod to Joey.

Ryou huddled himself in a corner with his hands over his ears. He was so terrified and scare and he wished Yuugi was here to help him or the devil boy again he had long to see. The house was suddenly breaking apart and a piece of wood from the roof fell towards Ryou, "AHHHHHHHHH!" He shut his eyes, waiting for the impact but a figure scooped the boy out of the way in time. "Bakura!" Ryou cried out when he realized he was in Bakura's arm. He noticed Bakura's large grey's wings and sharp claws from his fingers.
"Sorry for letting you see such a scary sight…because this was the only way I could get in quickly…" Bakura explained to the boy, knowing that Ryou was afraid of monsters. Bakura was surprised when Ryou flung his arms around his neck, "Ry….Ryou?"
"I like you. I don't care what you look like. I like you, Bakura." Bakura's eyes widen at the declaration and Ryou finally smiled in relief. Humans….monster, he didn't care anymore.
"Ryou!" Yuugi ran over to the boy and hugged him when Bakura let him down, "Thank god you are okay." The house started to crumble down more.
Bakura looked up ahead of the room with a smirk, "Hey, are you kidding me? Are you trying to destroy this place?"
Yuugi's eyes lighten up, "Yami!" Yami stood at the center of the room with broken parts of the lodge lying on the ground.
Yami had his hands on Yuugi's shoulder, checking for injuries, "Yuugi….are you alright?" His voice sounded really concern.
"Yes, all thanks to Bakura who saved me."
Yami glared at Bakura who grinned back, "Hi!"
"Why is it such a coincidence to meet him here….?" Yami frowned.
"BAKURA!" Someone shirked out loud and Bakura smile sheepishly, "What's happening here! My hotel and workers are all confused…..?" The lady in the red kimono demanded in anger who introduced the boys to her place earlier.
Bakura scratched his head, "Ah…that's because….ah-that's right!" He clicked his finger and begins to whisper in Yuugi's ear whose eyes widen and he ran off.
"Hey! Yuugi?" Yami yelled out feeling confuse.
"Sorry, I'll be back soon!" Yuugi shouted back and kept on running.
Yami sighed, "What is he up to now?"
L and Kaiba arrived at the scene, "What happened?" L demanded while trying to catch his breath. Kaiba scanned around the broken, torn place.
"Atemu." Bakura spoke up from behind Yami in a serious voice, "In this period I was gone, you've gone stronger."
Yami turned around and raised his eyebrow, "Yes? So?"
"Let's have a showdown next time!" Bakura smirked, "And the bet shall be Yuugi."

"Eh?" Hiro frowned, "The barrier implanted was destroyed…weird, who would have such power?"
Asami took off her sunglass with one hand and in her other hand she held an umbrella, "What are you talking about?" She asked.
Hiro smiled at her, "Nothing."
