"I'm going off to Yugi's, okay?" Ryou said as he walked into the living room. Bakura looked up from the program about daggers he had been watching.Â
"What?" he asked, not quite catching what his other half had just said.Â
"I'm going to Yugi's." Ryou repeated. "I'll be back by midnight. There's steak in the oven, just take it out when the timer goes off."Â
"Alright," Bakura said, already turning back to the screen. "Be careful, I don't want to have to come save you. And if that damn Pharaoh touches you I will personally wring his scrawny neck!" he clenched his fist at the thought, a dark look in his eyes.Â
"Don't worry," Ryou reassured his yami as he slung on his backpack. "Everything will be fine. Yugi's even giving me a drive home."Â
"Alright, but if anything happens call me!" Bakura looked at Ryou to make sure the importance of this was clear.Â
"Yes sir," Ryou mocked saluted. "See ya later 'Kura," he dropped a kiss on Bakura's head. Just as he was pulling away Bakura grabbed his head and pulled him to his lips. Ryou sighed with a smile and surrendered to the kiss.Â
"See ya my little hikari," Bakura whispered in their shared breath. Ryou blushed and nodded.Â
"Okay have fun," Bakura said, releasing Ryou. "But not with Yami!"Â
 "I will," Ryou smiled as he ran out the door.Â
"Wait, not with Yami, right?!" Bakura yelled as the door swung shut. The lonely click was his only answer.
He sighed and looked back at the screen. His program had changed, there was something with clothes and cakes on.... time to go. Or dinner, he mused. He clicked off the tele and threw the remotes on the couch before stalking off to the kitchen.Â
Three hours later a knock at the door woke Bakura from his near sleep. He sat up sleepily, wondering why he was on the couch. A quick glance at the watch told him that is was only nine. That was odd, Ryou wasn't suppose to be home till midnight, but who else could it be?
He growled, vowing that if there was solicitors at the door he would kill them. An impatient knock at the door called for his attention. He got up and slouched over to the door, still foggy eyed. He unlocked the door and tried to open it, his efforts being undermined by the chain. He closed the door, undid the chain, and re opened the door. Standing there in the hallway was his royal highness, the pharaoh himself. Bakura took one look and slammed the door shut. There was no way he was going to talk to that prick!
"Open up Bakura!" Yami shouted through the closed door.Â
"No," he growled, landing face first on the couch.Â
"It's about Ryou," Yami yelled. This caught his attention.Â
"What about right Ryou?" he asked.Â
"Come and see for yourself." Yami challenged.Â
He thought about ignoring him... but in the end his concern for Ryou over come everything else.Â
"What?" he snarled as he yanked the door open.Â
"See for yourself." Yami stepped to the side. A small child with white hair that tumbled to his waist and large doe eyes looked up at him shyly behind dark eyelashes. Blush colored his pale face as he smiled slightly.Â
"What does this brat have to do with Ryou?" Bakura demanded, glaring at Yami.Â
"Kitty!" the child yelled. He ran up to Bakura and jumped at him, throwing his arms around Bakura's middle. Bakura staggered back, thrown off balance.Â
"What the Hell?" Bakura yelped. "What in the name of Ra is going on here? Get off of me! Yami!!!!"Â
"He he," Yami laughed nervously. "You see, we were messing around with the millenium puzzle, and well... we kinda turned Ryou into a little kid." the last part was said in a hurried rushed.Â
"What?" Bakura roared. Looking up from the little kid, Ryou, who was hanging on to him.Â
"Yeah, sorry, I'll come back when I figure out how to change him back, okay." Yami ran off without waiting for a reply, not wanting to die yet.Â
"YAMI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"Â
