Normal POV

Yugi, Ryou, and Bakura stopped when they got to Domino high school as Ryou had to take a breath. As the albino took his time Yugi groaned in frustration before turning a smirk toward Bakura, "Nice acting Bakura, didn't know that you could be such a mussy guy." Bakura rolled his eyes and turned his face away, still trying to get the blush off his face for the sake of himself. "Whatever, just don't make this a reacuring thing," the former thief muttered with his rough voice, then just as quickly glared at both hikaris with a look that promised horror. Ryou stood up straight as he and Yugi were dragged inside the school gates, away from the public eye.

Both shivered and Bakura lead them to the back, Yugi being the one who kept Ryou from running away. Then Bakura suddenly turned to them before saying,"Since you want to learn my tricks of the trade 'little devil' we will begin by breaking and entering."

Yugi stared dumbly for a few seconds before smiling at the white haired yami, a determined sparkle in his eyes. With a nod and a sigh from Ryou the two began to listen as Bakura shortly explained the basics.

Bakura shifted onto his right leg, his wild hair swaying with his body as he continued, "I doubt that you'll be doing any big jobs so we will use this pathetic waste of concrete as the practice grounds" he said as he smacked the wall. "Climb the wall."

Slience was evident as they all stared up to the chain-link fence that surrounded the roof. The wind whistled past the hikari pair and Bakura turned to face the wall, putting his hand and foot on the wall, before leaping and carefully crawling his way up the solid concrete and over the fence. The thief smirked down at the two as he swiftly landed on the roof, watching as Yugi sweatdropped and Ryou sighed.

Yugi shyly smiled at his friend while taking a gulp of air, he could just feel the high from telling off Yami rolling off his sweating skin. The tri-colored haired teen could here cars zoom by in the background as he approached the white wall and firmly put a hand on it. 'Now or never,' the boy thought.

With determination sinking in Yugi scaled the wall, granted not as fast as the 'albino monkey' as the gamer had dubbed him. Feeling a bit confident in his ability he looked around him as he got higher up, seeing cars passing by, Ryou chewing his nails, and a couple of kids dueling. Suddenly as the wind picked up with a torrental gust Yugi's grip lessened, sending the emotional teen flying downward with a shout for help. Bakura just glared as this happened, muttering a few curses, as Ryou yelp and prepared to catch the young lad. Sadly luck never seemed to be on his side as Yugi fell face first onto the ground with a resounding 'thud'. The albino yami, having gotten bored, settled down on the edge watching, with shadowed eyes, as the dust fell back into place revealing a disheveled looking gamer.

Yugi's eyes shined, pricking with tears, either from the dust or the emotional over-lapse. The though of failure frustated him, would he ever get himself back together. It was a useless attempt, sure, but should he contiune. At first his resolve was strong but could this one single failure set him off?

As the teen was having a battle with his inner self Ryou carefully walked over with steps that could compare to a mouse's. Before he was able to comfort the boy a deep voice from above (not kami-sama) spat out, "what? You giving up already you worthless buffoon if you were serious a scratch wouldn't cause this. I thought you were tougher you porcupine."

The "porcupine" twitched at the word and the world suddenly became darker, "what did you say," growled the teen with a force that rivaled Ra's screech.

Bakura smirked amused by the reaction to the simple word, "I called you sorry little excuse for hair a porcupine, or would hedgehog be a more accurate description?" It was clear that the yami was purposely enraging the gamer for what reason? Well that's what had Ryou worrying as he jumped away from the teen.

Eyes flashing a dangerous and vivid maroon blaze, Yugi scrambled up from his downward facing dog position to grabbing the wall and practically catapulted himself up and over, surprising both albino parties at the suddenness of it all.

The wind fiercely changed direction to follow the flight of the tri-colored haired teen, sending Bakura into a frenzy when he was forced backward onto his back before a weight landed on him. With a groan he open his eyes which he never realized he had closed and ,smirking, he stared straight back into the deep violet depths of Yugi's normal eyes. "Well," he said with a confident smirk on his face "looks like you passed brat."

Yugi just continued starring, but then fell over in exsaution leaving them in an interesting position. "Bloody crap," Bakura cursed.

"Yugi? Bakura are you guys o-ok," yelled Ryou when he finally managed to pull himself over the ledge, but a healthy blush formed on his face at the figures of the two in front of him. "Well, I guess that's a yes," whispered Ryou as to not to disturb Yugi and the now snoozing Bakura. With that a smiled creeped up on his face just as he reached the two that had slid to the middle to the roof top from impact, he sat beside the two and petted both of there heads giving a quiet whisper,

"Good Night"


I'm baaaa-aaack...
