AHHHH I got this updated tonight! This was a bit of a bitch of a chappie at first, but I manage to make it awesome! So, in this chappie I use two of my favorite songs: 'Love me Back to Life' by Celine Dion and 'Wrecking Ball' by Miley Cyrus. Yes, I am a fan of Miley Cyrus. I know she's crazy now but she still can sing. As far as I'm concern she can do whatever it is she wants to do. She doesn't judge me, so why should I judge her?
This will be the last update for a while unless something magical happens and I'm able to update tomorrow...but I doubt it. Got me a paper to write. Anyways, I hope y'all enjoy the chappie!
Endlessly:
I could love you endlessly, I could fall in love with you and we could keep a miracle alive. Every time I look in your eyes, I get lost inside of your soul. What are you doing to me? Don't you know that I hate you? Don't you want my blood on your hands? Don't you want me to scream? Don't you realize that it's too late to bring me back life? I'm already further than death. I'm drowning in my desire for you and my need to kill you. I want my hands covered in your blood, I want your skin underneath my fingertips I want you to reach out and touch me, I want you to burn me alive with your beautiful eyes. I want to hear your voice when I go to bed at night, I want to lie next to you and watch the world go by. I want to end you for good, I want to make you suffer, I want to see the look in your eyes when you look up at me when I hold the knife above your heart. I want you to know that any claims of hope you had of us is nothing but fantasy we'll never have. I want you to be the one that kills me, I want my blood on your hands.. I want you to end me I want to feel your passion. I want to feel your soul wrapping around mine. I I want to know if you feel this too. I want to know if I can kill you now. I want to feel you underneath me I want to feel something besides this loneliness I feel inside. I want to bring the demon out of you.
I want to know if it hurts when I cut you up inside. I want to know if you really hate me or if I really hate you. I want to make me scream, I want to feel the power within me grow. I want you to knock me out, I want you to defeat me. I want something so much more from you than I could ever get. I want you to bleed, I want you to scream. I need you to know you're driving me crazy. I need you to know my soul burns passionately for you every time you give me that look I think I'm going to lose my mind. I want you dead, I want your soul to scream, to earn itself to me. I need you to know this isn't a game anymore. And what would you think if I told you that loved you this whole time? What would you say if I told you I never wanted to hate you, that I never loved you at all? What if I was playing with your mind?
What if I was lying right now? What if I told it was too personal to tell you how I felt about you? What if I told you that everything you've done to me was nothing more than just a wicked fantasies you dreamt of? What if I can't take it back? What if I don't want to? What if everything I said wasn't a lie? What if I tried to bring you back? What if I really did love you? Would you love me back, even though you think of me as a fool? Am I fool to fall in love with you? What if I told you that loving you is so impossible, it's not reality. I couldn't take it anymore. You burn me alive, I'd give myself to you if I could.
Disclaimer: I do not own Yugioh. If I did, then Yugioh would have ended with Bakura and Yami admitting their undying love for one another and Seto would have pulled Joey into a kiss to shut him up because Puppy and Darkshipping rock!
Warnings: My usual, y'all know what that means, but for those of you who happen to be new to my awesomeness, it means there's lemony goodness!
Summary:
Moments away from destroying Zorc, Yami hesitates, asking Horakhty if she can set Bakura free. She agrees, telling Yami that in order for him to pass into the afterlife, he must break his enemy of the darkness, and he only as a year to do so.
Chapter Eight: Wicked Seduction
[Bakura's POV]:
The Pharaoh came in here earlier wanting to apologize for what happened in the bathroom last night. I don't know why he's even bothering, I mean if I were him I'd be whacking off to me too. He was very lucky to have seen my gloriousness.
What's so amusing about this is the fact that he didn't deny it. And even if he did, I would have known he was lying he was extremely embarrassed. It's amusing to see the Pharaoh so out of control. He's always been so in control of things, especially his emotions. Everything always works out for him. He's the 'King of Games'. He's so perfect in everyone's eyes and I hate it! That fool is far from perfect! He can't hold a candle up to my awesomeness!
The amusement wore off when our eyes met though. Something is going on with him, I'm not sure what, but for some reason I want to find out. He wanted to apologize for something besides walking in on me, but he never said what. He just stared at me and then ran off. The Pharaoh never does that! What is going on with him?
Perhaps he realizes what he's done and feels guilty? Nah, that can't be it. He'll never admit that he's wrong. He always thinks he's right. He believes that his lifestyle is the only way to live and if the world doesn't follow that logic then people need to change. Why change them when you can destroy them? That's what Zorc always taught me anyways.
Zorc.
I had been raised by him. I served him and he served me. We were an incredible team of power and darkness. He taught me the ways of the truth and the facts of life. I wished he was still around so he could share with everyone his wisdom. Then again, he'd probably just laugh in their face and say they weren't worthy of him. Which, they're not.
It took me years to gain the privilege of knowing his greatness. At first, I was just a pathetic kid who cried then I realized that tears wouldn't cause those who took everything away from me to suffer, it would have to be revenge. So, I grew a pair, stabbed a few bitches and did everything in my power to get revenge..and I failed miserably.
Why?
I did everything Zorc told me to do, and yet it wasn't good enough! It makes me sick that the Pharaoh won in both our lifetimes and in his memories! I had so many advantages in the RPG we played and yet he rose above all of that and conquered Zorc like he was a spider under a shoe!
The Pharaoh is bound to this earth until he can release me from the darkness that is controlling me. I won't let that happen though. The darkness is the truth. I can't have that taken away from me. I don't give a damn what happens to him or me if he doesn't expel it from me within this year. No one told that fool to try and 'save' me. He's just wasting his time.
There is definitely something going on with the Pharaoh. I have to find out. If outright destroying him isn't the way to go, perhaps I need to look at this in a different light? Perhaps I need to be around him more. Yes, I'll have to endure the friendship squad, but that's a small price to pay for my revenge.
XXXXXXXX
[Yami's POV]:
How could I be so stupid?! I just wanted to apologize to Bakura about what happened in the bathroom and the next thing I knew, I was trying to talk about the past and apologize for that, but the thing is, I couldn't get the words out. I don't know why. I looked into Bakura's eyes to tell him, to let him know I was being serious, but when I did I couldn't speak. I could barely breathe. I have never had that problem before. I have always believed in giving a person eye contact when I was talking to them. It's just common courtesy. Especially when they're talking to you.
So then why, did I have such a hard time speaking to Bakura? I've never had this problem before. Perhaps it's because of the incident that happened last night? Yeah, that has to be it. I just find Bakura attractive, I'm not in love with him and I never will be. This will pass.
I stand up. My legs ache from sitting in that position for so long. How long has it been since I've been sitting on the floor? Well, it's time for me to get out of this room and be with my friends. Just as I'm about to turn the doorknob to walk out of the door, I hear a knock. I open it and Marik walks in.
"Is there something wrong, Marik?" I ask.
Marik turns to face me. "I don't know, you tell me."
"I don't know what you're talking about, Marik. There's nothing-"
"Oh stop with the bullshit, Yami!" Marik spits. "I know there's something wrong, now tell me what it is. Your friends are worried sick about you!"
"They're here?" I ask.
"Yeah, they just got back about ten minutes ago. They wanted me to talk to you, find out what's going on with you." Marik replies.
I sigh, taking a seat on the bed, Marik doing the same.
"You're upset about walking in on Bakura last night, aren't you?" Marik asks.
I nod, looking down at the ground.
"But there's more," Marik says.
I snap my head up. "What?"
"You like him don't you?" he asks.
"What?!" I exclaim a blush painting my face. "I don't-"
Marik chuckles, "Your eyes tell me everything."
"I just want to save him…" I mumble looking away, clenching my fists at my sides. "I don't have time to like him like that."
"You're not going to save anyone like that." Marik says. "I think you need to figure out what's really going on. If it's just lust, it'll eventually go away, but if it's more then we have a problem."
I sigh heavily, "I know. I need to spend time with him, get him to open up more to me, but I need to give him some time." I say.
"How about we do this: don't go around Bakura for a week. I'll tell the others not to mention Bakura to you whatsoever, and you do whatever you have to do not to think about Bakura and that incident. After the week is over, we'll go out and I'll see how you react around him." Marik says.
"Okay, I think I can do that." I say.
"Good, now get out of this room," Marik says standing up. "Your friends are downstairs and they're worried sick."
XXXXXXXX
[Duke's POV]:
Anzu, Joey, Tristan, Yugi and I had a great time at the arcade. I won three games in a row against Joey. He was pretty pissed about it, but he can get over it. We arrived back at Yugi's house. Marik was sitting on the couch watching TV. Joey went absolutely ballistic when he found out that Yami and Bakura had 'talked'. I don't know why,he knows Yami has a contract with the Goddess of Light about saving Bakura. How else is he supposed to save him?
Marik's upstairs right now talking to Yami. Hopefully he's going to be able to figure out what's been going on. I hate to see any of my friends in distress, even if they do bring it upon themselves. Oh well, I guess you live and learn right?
"So did ya find out what's been going on with Yams?" Joey asks as Marik comes into the living room.
"Yup." Marik says flopping into the recliner.
Silence fills the air.
"Are you going to tell us?" Anzu asks.
"No," Marik says.
"Now just wait a minute you said you were going to help us find out why Yami's so upset!" Tristan yells.
"And I did," Marik says. "But it's not for me to tell you. All you need to know is that in a week, we're going to try and have Bakura and Yami around each other."
"Like by themselves?" Joey asks.
"Not quite," Marik says.
"That'd be hell on earth." I say.
"They'll eventually have to be alone though." Yugi points out.
"We'll reach that point when we get there." Marik says. "Let's just focus on getting through this week. And, I want all of you not to speak of Bakura in Yami's presence."
"Why not?" I ask.
Marik turns to face me. "If my hunch is correct, you'll find out why soon enough."
XXXXXXXX
[A week later….]:
[Yugi's POV]:
The week was finally over, it took us a miracle not to mention Bakura the whole week. We had gone out so Yami wouldn't be tempted to ask about the thief. Marik informed us that Bakura was getting better. I'm glad. Today, we're going to try and get Bakura out of the house. I haven't the slightest idea what he's going to want to do besides kill us, but I'm sure Marik can think of something.
We're all sitting in the living room. Grandpa had left at the end of the week to go to Egypt. He told us he'd get Ryou to call us when he got a chance. I tried to call him earlier last week, but I wasn't able to get a hold of him.
"Where do you think Bakura's going to want to go?" I ask.
"A graveyard." Duke shrugs.
"I hope not!" Joey exclaims. "Those things are freaky!"
"They have dead people in them. It's kind of the point nimrod." Tristan scoffs rolling his eyes.
"Still, I don't want to go-"
"Well, we might have to." Anzu says. "I mean I'm not for graveyards either, but we need to help Bakura and if he wants to go to a graveyard we're going to have to suck it up."
"He should suck it up and come to the arcade with us." Tristan says.
"He probably can't even play games." Duke scoffs.
"Except the killing games." Joey adds.
Duke, Tristan and Joey burst into a fit of laughter.
"He'd never beat me at a racing game." Joey boasts.
"Is that a challenge, mutt?" Bakura sneers.
XXXXXXXX
[Yami's POV]:
This week has been nothing but hell for me. Luckily, my friends were able to help some, but even they couldn't stop the thoughts from slipping into my mind. I thought that not being around Bakura would make this situation better, if anything, it's making it worse. I find myself craving his presence.
I keep having dreams about him. I have dreams about the past and the incident that happened last week. I have nightmares where I run out of time and he's destroyed before my eyes. I often wake up with tears running down my cheeks.
These feelings, they're getting out of hand. I have to be able to focus on my task. Today, we're going to see if Bakura won't go out with us somewhere, wherever he wants to go. Everyone seems to be in some sort of argument over it. I don't pay much attention to it. I can feel Yugi's eyes on me. I know he's worried about me. I know I should confine in him about what's bothering me, but how can I when I don't even know? I mean sure there's the bathroom incident, but I'm convinced there's something more. It has to be the pressure of this task getting to me. There's no way it can be….
"Is that a challenge mutt?" I hear Bakura sneer. I look behind the couch to see Marik and Bakura walking into the living room. Just the presence of Bakura has my heart beating wildly in my chest. I can't, for the life of me, stop staring at him. I force my attention on what he's saying.
"Challenge Joey to what?" I ask.
"If you'd been paying attention instead of having dream sex with me over there then you would know, wouldn't you?" Bakura smirks.
"Who the hell would want to have sex with you?" Tristan spits.
Bakura turns towards Tristan. "Let's just say I had men and women begging me to fuck them, does that answer your question?" Bakura sneers.
"I thought you were gay though." Joey says.
"I am." Bakura says. "Why? Did you want some of my cock too? I'm sorry I don't fuck dogs."
"Must you be so crude?" Anzu asks.
"Must you be so annoying?" Bakura shoot back coolly.
"We're supposed to be going out, not bitching." Duke says.
"So where do you want to go, Bakura?" Yugi asks.
"I think we should go to the arcade." Joey says.
"So you want me to kick your ass and then fuck you?" Bakura laughs. "My, my, no wonder Kaiba's into you. You little freak!"
"You're one to talk!" Joey shouts. "You're the one dat gets turned on from pain."
"I never denied anything." Bakura says. "Now then, are we going to go to this arcade of yours or are we going to admire me all day?"
"You flatter yourself too much." Tristan says.
'Really now?" Bakura laughs. "Then why don't you ask the Pharaoh why he got so turned on when he walked in on me taking a shower last week."
Silence fills the air. Everyone turns to me seeing the embarrassment clear on my face.
"Is that's what has been bothering you, Yami?" Yugi asks concernly.
I don't say anything. I should have known Bakura was going to exploit the hell out of that situation. He'll do anything to see me to embarrass me and see me in pain.
"Of course it is!" Bakura cackles. "You should have seen him when he walked in on me! He wouldn't stop staring at my-"
"Bakura that is enough!" Marik shouts.
Bakura turns to his friend. "Stay out of this Marik!" he growls.
"I'm not going to stand here while you embarrass Yami! How would you feel if you were in that situation?" Marik yells.
"I wouldn't be chicken about it." Bakura says. "I'd take what I want and be done with it."
"Everyone doesn't want you!" Anzu shouts.
"The Pharaoh does." Bakura says.
"Can we please just get to the damn arcade already?" Tristan shouts. "No one wants you, get a life!"
"Tristan, just stop." I say getting up.
"But-"
"Let's just go." I say walking out the door.
XXXXXXX
[Bakura's POV]:
We're at the loud and obnoxious arcade. Marik had come into the room telling me I needed to get out with the geek squad. I didn't want to, but he told me that I didn't actually have to be around them totally, but I needed to get out because being cooped up in that house wouldn't be good for me and besides, it gave me an excuse to see what the Pharaoh's so upset about.
"So what game do you think you can win against me mutt?" I ask.
The arcade is loud, roaming with idiot and blinding lights. I don't understand how anyone can enjoy coming here. I shouldn't have to be here, but I'll do what I have to do in order to crush my greatest enemy.
"Anything but a killing game." he says. "We know how much you like that, sick freak."
"Ah yes, there's nothing better than killing someone." I sigh.
"Whatever," the mutt snaps. "Let's just play a game so I can kick your sorry ass."
"Then pick a game fool!" I shout.
The mutt turns to Bland Ass and Dice Boy. They must be having some secret meeting. Not that I care.
"Joey, you should challenge Bakura to DDR!" Friendship Bitch shouts from across the room.
How her voice is that loud I will never know, but then again I suppose if you're promoting stupidity it has to be that loud so people can hear you otherwise, you'd get drowned out really quickly.
"Can you even dance Joey?" the Pharaoh's Bitch of a Midget asks.
"Sure can, Anzu taught me." the Mutt says. He turns to me, "Ready to get your ass kicked?"
I smirk.
XXXXXXX
[Joey's POV]:
This week has been crazy. We were forced not to say anything to Yami about Bakura. I called Serenity she said that she would be able to come in in a few weeks, which really excites me. I miss my sister dearly. She said told me that she and mom were in Canada right now. I bet that's pretty cool over there. She promised to tell me all about it when she saw me again.
We finally found out what's been goin' on with Yams thanks to Bakura. Apparently, Yams walked in on Bakura and saw him naked. I don't blame Yams for being scared, if I were him I'd never leave my room! Speaking of room, I haven't been back at my house in a while.
Sometimes I sleep over at Yugs, others T. I know Dad's not really caring where I am at this point in time. I had talked to Mokuba the other day, he wants me to come over sometime this week to play some games, which is fine with me because Mokuba is really awesome.
Bakura and I are going to play DDR. I know there's no way in hell he can be any good at this game. As I've said before, all he understands is killing. He can't possibly know what fun is. Yams is seriously just wasting his time on this idiot. He doesn't care that Yams can't go to the afterlife because of him! He doesn't care about anyone but himself. He thinks he's the most amazing thing in the world and acts like everyone wants him. Umm no. I mean I'm bi and I do admit, he is attractive, but looks aren't everything, at least to me they're not. But then again with Bakura, they probably are because he's so heartless.
"You can go first mutt," Bakura says.
"Works for me." I say.
"You can do it Joey!" I hear everyone cheer. Even Marik is cheering me on, which is rather surprising since he's Bakura's bff and all. Though, I do have to admit, he's a pretty cool guy.
I step on the platform,it's show time.
XXXXXXXXX
[Bakura's POV]:
The friendship squad is screaming their heads off at the mutt playing DDR. It's quite amusing, he's not terrible but he definitely won't be able to beat me. I lived and breathed things of this nature. Dancing, singing, sex, stealing. It was the way of my life, a way of survival. The mutt has no idea what he's doing. The song he's dancing to is over. He jumps off the platform sweating, his shirt sticking to him.
"Beat dat!" he shouts giving his losers high fives.
I walk towards the platform, looking over my shoulder at the Pharaoh. His eyes are locked on mine.
"It's show time." I smirk setting up the system.
XXXXXXXXX
[Yami's POV]:
Joey had challenged Bakura to a game of DDR. I knew that Joey had been taking dancing lessons from Anzu, and since Anzu was going to be going to school to become a professional dancer then I knew she had been teaching him well. Admittedly, he still needed some work, but he was so much better than he used to be. He ended up with a pretty high score, now it's Bakura's turn.
Everyone's eyes were glued on Bakura as he danced. My own wouldn't leave the thief. He can sing and dance! He dances like a killer seducing his victim for the final strike. His eyes meet mine. He smirks, twisting and moving his body in ways I never knew could be possible. It's beyond extraordinary. He has yet to miss a single beat to this fast pacing song he's dancing too.
"My gods!" Yugi gasps. "Bakura can really dance!"
I glance at Joey with the corner of my eye. He and Anzu both have their fists clench at their sides, staring at the thief. I'm sure they are in disbelief about now. And who wouldn't be? No one would expect anything like that from the tomb robber.
The song ends and Bakura walks off the platform.
"I told you you can't beat me." Bakura says. "Anyone else?"
XXXXXXX
[Marik's POV]:
We have been at the arcade for a good four or five hours and Bakura is kicking ass. I knew Joey didn't stand a chance against him, but I wasn't going to say anything. I wanted Bakura to dance so I could see how Yami reacted. He reacted just the way I figured he would: his eyes glued to my best friend like he was the most beautiful thing in the world. I have to admit, Bakura is very sexy when he dances and when he sings, you can forget it. That deep voice would drive anyone crazy. He told me that he's 'turned' so many men gay just from his voice alone. I believe it.
Duke, Tristan, Yugi, and Anzu have challenged him to DDR. Duke and Tristan didn't fare too well. Anzu, on the other hand will be a different story. We watch as Anzu perfects the moves, her wanting to be a professional dancer has to make her good at games such at these. I watch Bakura watch her. He studies her every move, her technique. He's searching for her weakness. He growls when she gets a super high score.
"That was amazing Anzu!" Yugi exclaims.
"Thanks, Yugi." Anzu smiles.
"How 'bout ya beat dat?" Joey says to Bakura.
Bakura smirks. "Pharaoh, you're next."
XXXXXXX
[Anzu's POV]:
The unbelievable has happened and Bakura has beaten me in DDR. Now he and Yami are going to challenge each other to some game. I'm not sure what they're going to play though, but whatever it is I know Yami can beat him. He's the 'King of Games' after all. Bakura may be amazing at dancing, but he's no match for Yami. I'm sure Yami can beat him in DDR.
Joey and Tristan, of course like usual, got hungry so we're all sitting down at the table. Well, everyone except Yami, Bakura and Marik.
"I can't believe how good Bakura is at dancing!" Joey cries.
"I know man!" Duke exclaims. "It's like he invented the shit."
"He probably has been dancing all his life." I say.
'So have you." Tristan says.
"True," Yugi concurs. 'but you have to put into the fact that Bakura is a 5,000 year old spirit from Ancient Egypt."
"Yeah, that's true. I just find it weird he's good at anything besides killing." Tristan says.
"I know," Joey says taking a bit of some of his fries.
"Did anyone see the way Yami was looking at him?" I ask.
"I did," Yugi says.
His and my eyes meet.
"What's going on guys?" Joey asks.
"Nothing Joey." Yugi says. "I'm going to go check on Yami."
XXXXXXXXXX
[Yami's POV]:
Bakura beat all of my friends in dancing, including Anzu. I was shocked that be beat Anzu, but for some reason, I'm glad he did. I'm not sure why though. I loved watching him dance. It was like he was dancing for me or something. His eyes would meet mine from time to time. I loved seeing him like that, it was beyond beautiful. I have never seen anything like it in my life.
Everyone is taking a break on games and eating. I excused myself to the bathroom. Marik and Bakura are eating at another table no doubt. I'm not going to be able to eat right now, not with the image of Bakura dancing in my mind. I turn the water on, splashing it on my face. I stare at myself in the mirror.
"No Yami, if you stare at yourself long enough, you're not going to change." Yugi giggles.
I turn to see my Hikari standing behind me.
"Hey, Yugi." I say.
"Are you okay?" Yugi asks worryingly.
I close my eyes, nodding. We stand there in silence for a moment.
"I wished you would have told me," he says pressing his back against the sink.
"Told you what?" I ask.
"About you walking in on Bakura." he replies.
I look away from him.
"Yami, why are you so embarrassed for? Everyone walks in on each other, nothing to be embarrassed about." Yugi says.
"That's not the problem." I mutter.
"Then what is?" Yugi presses.
I shrug. "I'm not sure, I just feel weird." I reply.
"Like how?" Yugi asks.
"I-"
"C'mon Yami, you can tell me." Yugi says taking my hand in his.
I turn so our eyes meet. I know I can trust Yugi, but what am I supposed to tell him when I don't have an answer to whatever's going on with me.
"I don't know why, but ever since I saw him like that in the bathroom last week, all I can think about is him." I whisper my fingers gripping the sink. "And then this whole thing about saving him too it's stressing me out."
"You know we have your back, Yami." Yugi says. "I know this is stressful, but you're saving his soul by doing this for him."
"I know," I say. "And he doesn't even care."
"He does," Yugi says, "He just doesn't realize it."
I smile slightly, "And then there's the fact that I keep wanting him." I sigh.
"Well, grandpa always told me that if it's lust it'll go away, but if it's love it lasts forever." Yugi says.
"I hope it's just lust," I mutter.
"Let's get out of the bathroom, get something to eat and help Bakura." Yugi says.
XXXXXXXXX
[Bakura's POV]:
"That was really uncalled for," Marik says taking a sip of his drink.
We've been at this Ra forsaken bitch fest for about five hours and everyone decided they wanted to get fat and eat, so that's what Marik and I are doing. The Pharaoh's pack of bitches are quite a ways from Marik and my table. There's only so much bitch fest I can handle. I creamed every last one of them in DDR. I don't know why they even thought they had a chance with me, they must be stupid.
"What was?" I ask innocently knowing full well what he's referring to.
"Don't patronize me, Bakura." Marik spits. "You know exactly what I'm talking about!"
"I don't see how that's any of your concern." I sneer.
"In case you've forgotten, Yami is one of my friends!" Marik shouts.
"And? I was just dancing." I shrug.
"No, you were trying to seduce him!" Marik cries.
"You are reading into shit too much." I say.
"Are you guys ready for more fun?" the mutt asks walking up to our table.
"Does 'fun' include your guts spilling on the floor?" I sneer.
"Bakura, stop it." the Pharaoh says. "You know Joey's just trying to be nice."
"Well then Pharaoh, are you ready to lose against me?" I ask standing up. I walk over to him, he stands there, frozen in place. I circle him, keeping an eye out on his movements. "I think we need to make this interesting don't you?"
"What do you have in mind?" he asks.
"Let's sing," I say. "In front of all of these people."
The Pharaoh pales.
"Are you scared?" I tease. "Poor wittle Pharaoh's too scared of the big bad stage."
"Yami doesn't have to do anything he doesn't want to do!" Friendship Bitch shouts.
I ignore her, continuing to circle the Pharaoh. "So? What's it going to be? Are you up for the challenge?"
"One condition." the Pharaoh says.
"What?" I growl.
A smirk spreads across his face. "You have to sing a love song that I choose."
I pale.
XXXXXXXX
[Yami's POV]:
Bakura has challenged me to a karaoke contest. I'm not sure what song I'm going to sing, but it has to be a love song because that was the agreement to our battle. Everyone is gathered around. Bakura's sitting at the front.
"What song are you going to sing tonight?" the man controlling the karaoke machine asks.
"I-umm…"
I hear shouts of different songs.
"Sing 'Wrecking Ball'." Bakura cackles.
"Bakura you seriously can't expect Yami to sing a girl's song!" Anzu exclaims.
"Whelp he better, or he'll owe me a blow job." Bakura says.
"WHAT?!" I exclaim. "That wasn't part of the bet!"
"It is now," Bakura says. "So you either swallow my cum or you sing 'Wrecking Ball' your choice."
I groan in aggravation. I can't believe Bakura is making me do this! He'll do anything to embarrass me.
"Fine," I growl through gritted teeth.
XXXXXXXXXX
[Bakura's POV]:
I told the Pharaoh to sing one of the sappiest songs known to man: 'Wrecking Ball' by Miley Cyrus. I heard she's gotten a bit wild. Americans always do. The Pharaoh stands on stage, he looks like he's about to pass out from nerves, it's quite amusing really.
"We clawed, we chained our hearts in vain
We jumped never asking why
We kissed, I fell under your spell.
A love no one could deny."
My eyes widen when the Pharaoh began singing. So he can sing too. Well, this is going to be amusing, wouldn't you agree?
"Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me."
"I put you high up in the sky
And now, you're not coming down
It slowly turned, you let me burn
And now, we're ashes on the ground
He's staring right at me when he sings. For some reason, this is causing me to feel strange. Probably because he's singing such a slutty song.
"Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me
I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
And instead of using force
I guess I should've let you win
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
I guess I should've let you win
Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me
I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me."
Cheers erupt in the crowd. I do have to admit he makes that song song so much better than Miley Cyrus ever will. Now, it's my turn to seduce him. He'll probably pick a lame girly song to get back at me.
"Wow Yams," the mutt says as the Pharaoh comes to sit at the table beside his friends. "Dat was great!"
"Thanks," he says. "Bakura, you're up."
I stand up. "And what lovely song should I sing for my queen?" I sneer mockingly.
Marik smirks, walking up to the Pharaoh.
"'Love me Back to Life.'" he smirks.
"Oh good one!" Bland Ass exclaims.
"Good luck singing dat!" the mutt shouts.
"Watch me," I say getting up on the stage.

[Yami's POV]:
"I was walking dead
Stuck inside my head
I couldn't get out
Turn the lights down
The voices inside were so loud"
I knew Bakura could sing, but when sings songs like this, it's beyond amazing. He's sounds just as beautiful-if not better than the original singer, even though the original singer is a woman.
He made me sing 'Wrecking Ball'. I stared at him the whole time, pretending he was the only person in the room. I'm not sure why, but looking into his eyes made me feel so much better. It should have discouraged me, sucked away my confidence and made me feel worthless. It did everything but those things.
"Need a jump-start, catatonia
I couldn't feel,
I wish that I could disappear
The voices inside were so real
But you stood by my side
Night after night, night after night.
You loved me back to life, life
From the coma.
The wait is over.
You loved me back to life, life
From the coma.
We're lovers again tonight."
Bakura's voice is ringing in my ears. He's staring right at me. I'm not sure why, but it's making me weak. Everyone is cheering for him, I know he has to feel amazing. I know I did when they cheered for me. My friends are staring wide eyed at the thief.
"What can't he do?!" Duke exclaims.
"Beat Yams," Joey says.
I can't keep my eyes off Bakura, he's enchanting. He walks off the stage, coming towards me. I'm frozen in place.
"Back to life, back to life, back to life, back to life, yeah, yeah.
You woke me up, one touch and I felt alive
You loved me back to life,
Back to life, thought I died.
The voices inside were so quiet.
But you stood by my side
Night after night, night after night."
He's right in front of me. Everyone's staring at us. I should leave, this is getting out of hand, but I'm finding I don't want to.
"You loved me back to life, life
From the coma.
The wait is over.
You loved me back to life, life
From the coma.
We're lovers again tonight.
Strong hand, thick skin and an open heart
You saw through the pain, saw through the mask
You never gave up on me, yeah"
My breath catches in my throat when he takes my hand, intertwining our fingers together. He brushes the side of my face, staring deeply into my eyes.
"Life, life
From the coma.
The wait is over.
You loved me back to life, life
From the coma.
We're lovers again tonight
Back to life, back to life, back to life, back to life
Back to life, back to life, back to life, back to life
Yeah, yeah…"
Before I, or anyone else has time to protest, Bakura cups my face, pressing our lips together.
XXXXXXXX
AHH HAHA! Who saw THAT coming? Bakura's plan will be revealed more next chappie. Review lovelies! It's time for me to high five my bed. :D.
