Me: Hey everyone! I'm really sorry, I have had a super busy week! And the week before. So I haven't been working on stories as much. Sorry
Bakura: No excuse
Atem: Oh shut up
Yugi: Anyways, SilverHowl doesn't own Yu-Gi-Oh!
Ryou: Please read and review
"Hey Marik, I need your help." Bakura said. He explained everything to Marik. Back at his house, Marik looked over at Malik. He decided to go ahead and leave. He wrote a note and lightly rested it on Malik's face as he was fast asleep. It didn't take him very long to reach Bakura. It took him a while, since Bakura had to be following Yugi. "You take the girl and I'll get Yugi. As soon as I'm away with Yugi, let Téa go and give her this." He said handing Marik a note. Marik very creepily stalked Téa, and shaking his head Bakura followed. Marik looked to Bakura, and they nodded. Bakura wrapped his hands around Yugi while Marik grabbed Téa. Marik put a hand over Téa's mouth so she couldn't scream. "I'm sorry Yugi, but I must save my Angel… And to do that I must bring you to Dartz… I'm sorry I hope you can forgive me and if I can help you to escape, I will." Bakura said. Yugi's eyes showed fear. He didn't want to go back to Dartz. Bakura sighed, and began dragging him off. When Marik saw them disappear, he gave the note to Téa, and let her go. Then he raced back home. Téa looked at the note.
It read: "Dear person, please give this to Atem. You may read further, but I really don't care. Just make sure this gets to Atem. Dear Atem, I regret having to do this. But Dartz is holding my Angel prisoner, and I don't want Dartz killing him. So I had to kidnap Yugi. Then I have to somehow get you as well. Either somehow help me to get Ryou, or I will have to come after you next. I'm so sorry, I didn't want our reunion to be like this. Signed, Bakura." Téa gasped. She ran all the way to Atem. "Atem! Atem!" She yelled. At this point, Téa had tears streaming down her face. She gave the note to Atem, who widened his eyes when he read it. He was absolutely furious. His hands shook and he ripped the note to pieces. He went to Alexa and told her what had happened. "Well I don't want to lose either of you, so I suggest helping Bakura to find this Ryou person." She said. Atem nodded. He searched through his phone, finally finding Bakura's contact. A long long time ago, they used to be friends. He texted him, "Meet me at the park on 42nd." He ran there, and sat on one of the benches waiting for Bakura.
Bakura nervously came around the corner. He had a gun under his shirt on his back side in case Atem tried to do anything. "Alright let's get this over with. Take me to where this Ryou person is being held." He said. Bakura got on his motorcycle, and Atem got onto his own. He followed Bakura all the way there and they stopped by the forest. "Why don't we just call the cops?" Atem asked. "Because, they make too much noise. Dartz will easily know we came after him. Then, he'd probably shoot Ryou." Bakura said without looking over at Atem. "Bakura, who is Ryou?" He asked. Bakura bit his lip. "Uh, no one." He said. Atem wasn't stupid. He could tell Bakura liked this person. He never imagined Bakura could ever fall in love. Atem was angry, but he was more so with Dartz then Bakura. They finally got to the cabin. "He's in the basement, in a cell. We'd need to get keys." Bakura said. "How do you already know that?" Atem asked. "Because they caught me. They locked me up next to Ryou's cell, but we couldn't actually be together." Bakura said. "You must really love this girl, huh?" He asked.
Bakura looked down. "Ryou… Isn't a girl." Bakura said. Atem's eyes widened. "I know, it shocked me too. I thought I'd end up being like you and falling for a lady." Bakura said. He kept his face to the ground. Atem sighed. "Well, let's just get him out of his prison." He said. Bakura smiled, but didn't let Atem see it. He knew they wouldn't be able to get in without Dartz noticing. He would tell Dartz they were there. He felt bad about it, but he was desperate. They crept up to a window, and crawled through it. Bakura jumped down onto the floor. He saw Dartz. Their eyes met. Bakura winked, and Dartz moved to the side so Atem wouldn't see him. He moved along the wall so he was directly across from where Atem would be. As soon as he jumped down, Dartz sprang from his hiding spot and grabbed Atem. His eyes widened, surprised about how much stronger he had gotten, and the wind was knocked out of him. "Traitor!" Atem yelled. He looked at Bakura, and he could tell he was ashamed. At least he knew that Bakura didn't want to do this.
"Now where is Yugi?" Dartz said. Bakura faltered. He thought he only needed Atem. Hearing this, Atem glanced over at Bakura. He had the look of shock in hi eyes. He never intended to give Yugi to him. But now he would have to. "I-i thought you only needed Atem." Bakura managed to say. Dartz glared at him. "It's Yugi's fault too. So if you want to see Ryou, you better hand him over." He said. Bakura gritted his teeth. "Fine. Meet me at the abandoned warehouse tonight at midnight. You better have him or I'm not giving you Yugi." He said. Atem could see the pain in his eyes. He didn't want this anymore than Atem did. But still. Dartz finally nodded. "Alright then. Pleasure doing business with you." He said with a cruel smile. Bakura glanced back at Atem, before finally leaving those two alone. "My, my. Look who I finally have. You better start your praying boy. Cause you and your brother will need it desperately." He said dangerously. He pulled out a knife, and laughed when he saw the flash of fear laced Atem's face.
