*Thirdly sorry about the formatting of this story! I'm sorry if it bugs anyone! But I hope you read anyway!

*Fourthly! I can't promise this will be a long fan fiction! I have no idea how long it will be, but I wasn't planning on making it go on forever Eg-100,000 words or anything, I have no idea how long it will be, hopefully at least 30,000-60,000 wordsbut not overly long, (Never mindit will be long~ Sorry!) especially since this actually started out as something I was just texting my friend to bug her, thats why I made it in the lay out I didbut then I turned it more into a story and yeah (by the way I stopped texting it too her)

*Fifty! I can't promise how often I will update this! It might be slow or quick! I don't know! But I'm still writing my Match! (thieves) fan fiction and it comes first, this was just something silly I was doing on the side

*SIXTHLY-please point out any mistakes in my writing!

*Lastly!

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-gi-oh or the characters! And this will not change through out this fanfic unless I say so! (Probably won't ever happen!)

Chapter one

Mistaken Prince

— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —

Once

upon

a time

there lived a prince

he was really cool

he had white hair and brown dough eyes

he was well respected through out the kingdom

except by a group of thugs who couldn't care less

he wished to escape palace life though

he hated it

everyone telling him he was better than the next guy

just because he was born

he wanted to be normal

and equal

but where ever he turned everyone looked at him

judgemental eyes

scanning his every move

every action

he wanted to be free from this curse

he wanted so badly just to walk among his people

to be treated as an equal

so he snuck out

at the dead of night

he threw away any traces of his royalties

he stole the clothes from one of his many slaves

the ones he had begged his father so often to release

he ran off into the night

running happily through the streets

he hadn't seen it at night

the waters glistened in the moon light

the shady trees whistled in the night air

the cold night breeze flew through his snow white hair blowing off his brown hood

He didn't know where he was going

But it was sure to be fun

No one should have noticed his escape yet

The guards knew not to bother him while he slept

They would surely notice by daylight

But he wouldn't come back

Let them hunt

He smiled gleefully

Hugging his necklace fondly

His brother has given it to him before he escaped

He hasn't seen him since

He could swear he saw a flash of white hair from his twin

But never long enough

He had hated the palace life

He missed him though

He hadn't been brave enough to leave then

But now he was

He was ready for freedom

Even if it meant leaving everything behind

He never really spoke with his father anyway

And his sister had drown along with his mother

There were theories she killed herself and her child

Others said it was murder

He didn't really care which it was

He had practically been alone since that day

Nothing had made sense since it

He missed his dearest sister Amane

He wrote to her sometimes

But he was only little when she died

He couldn't stop the cold wet liquid rolling down his cheeks

"Ouch!" He was suddenly stopped as he ran into another something

He hadn't been watching where he was going

Hopefully it wasn't a guard

"Bakura!" the voice growled, "where the fuck do you think you went off too!"

The prince jumped slightly at the others choice of language

But mostly because of what he called him

Bakura

His brother

He stared at the other teen

He knew his eyes were still probably tearing

"What the hell!" The other teen snapped, "are you crying for Ra's sake!"

Ryou sniffed slightly and shook his head

The other teen was bronzed tanned

Compared to his pale skin

His honey golden hair was spiked up all over the place

"What the hell!" The other teen roared quietly, "we don't have time for this!"

His eyes widened as the purple eyed teen threw him over his shoulder and begun running down the streets

He could hear the guards in the distance

They were calling to each other

"The rebel went this way!"

Ryou froze

Was this teen truly one of the rebels

The ones who hated him?

What was going to happen when he figured out he wasn't this guys friend

Though than again he was grateful for now

The teen was helping him get away from the guards

He wasn't ready to return to the palace yet

"Your bloody quiet today," the other teen snarled, "you have been gone for days!? And now you return dead!"

So did that mean this Bakura was away?

This Bakura?

Could it actually be his brother?

He could pretend to be him?

Just until he returned

They were going down an old passage way

To an underground place

He looked around

It wasn't very big

He could see different exits and openings

Some kids were staring at him

Were the resistance against him all kids his own age?

Someone with tricoloured hair was eyeing him off

He couldn't help but bury his face deeper into the other teens shoulder

He didn't want to be recognised

Especially while in the company off

So many people who hate him

Though they do not even know him

The other teen threw him onto a hard mattress

"My bloody brother has been worriedly sick about you asshole," he growled stepping back

He stared at him shortly before assessing the room

It was concrete box practically

Nothing like the palace

But he like it

He scanned over the other teen

He was much bigger than his slim frame

And looked much stronger

"What can't you bloody speak now!?" He demanded

"Bakuraaaa!" A voice squealed through the little room

The sound echoed on the walls

He looked much like the other teen

Except much littler

Well the same age

But his hair was nicely combed down

He wore a lot of jewellery though

Much like the other teen

"Where the hell do you think you went!" The other teen demanded hugging the pale prince fondly

"Around," Ryou decided to answer

Though it probably wasn't very smart

He didn't know how this Bakura teen acted

Or sounded

"Are you sick?"

He shook his head as the other teen leant back and looked him over

He assessed the taller teen out of the two

The one who had brought him here

His face was blank

But his eyes begun to shake violently as he noticed the red soaked hands

Blood

He gulped nervously as he glanced to his shoulder

Now covered in the same liquid

"Come on Marik," the older teen gruffed

"But Mariku!" This Marik kid moaned

He shook his head and the other teen seemed to understand

They both left

He was alone

He couldn't even get back to the palace if he wanted to

Though he didn't think he was going to be able to be this Bakura guy

Maybe he should sneak out again?

He glanced up at the window

Too small

He could walk back the way he came

Hopefully everyone would think he was this Bakura guy

Bakura

His brothers name was Bakura

If he looked like this Bakura

Did that mean

No

He had no proof of this

But he needed to leave

The buff teen had had blood on his hands

He couldn't stay

If they

No

Once they figured out who he was

He would be dead

He froze as he heard the room next to him bang

The teen that had carried him away was screaming in a different language to his brother

Adding understandable swear words here and there

He was busy

He could leave now

While they were still busy

He quickly stood up and head faced at the floor

He ran

He wasn't really paying attention to where he was going

He was sure it was mostly straight though

"Ahhhh!" He jumped as he felt a firm hand hold him still

"Roar," the other teen chuckled with venom

It was this Mariku kid

He shivered slightly as he felt his shirt top become soggy

"You should get changed," the other teen suggested, "where did you get that anyway? The palace servants?"

The other teen was probably kidding

But he didn't know how true that statement was

"Yes," he decided not to lie

Even if he was found out

He didn't think he was going to aloud to leave

"Hmph," the other teen actually sounded slightly impressed, "you robbed the palace?"

He nodded slightly

He knew other kids from the area were staring at him

"You know I was joking when I mocked your 'Thief King' title?" The other teen said slightly amused, "you could of gotten caught and it would of been such an effort to break your sorry ass out."

"I know," he sighed

He really did know

how hard it was to break out

Since his brother did it everything was tripled

Guards

Locks

Security

His room might of well of been a jail cell

He had barely anyways to escape it

"Did you see Rishid at the palace?" The other blonde haired teen asked suddenly

"Rishid?" That was his top guard

He was the one who was meant to keep an eye on him

He hoped he wouldn't be punished from his actions

He had up get back to make sure

He had told him so many stories of his brothers

His sister lived in the castle too

He needed to go

"Not that I care about my brother," the other teen suddenly gruffed, "I mean it was his fault he chose the palace over us..."

Brother?

He had to get back!

"Let me go!" Ryou squirmed in the other teens grip

"Rishid-kun will be punished!" The other teen seemed to release at these words

Ryou ran with his head down

He was aware of the curious eyes following him

But he didn't care

He needed to run

He would sacrifice his freedom for the only one who had acted as a friend

The only one

He didn't didn't know why either

When the other teen said he was his brother

He wanted him to be safe

So the other teen wouldn't worry

The other teen had shown concern about him

No one ever showed that

Most of the servants and castle staff wouldn't dare touch him

He ran down another ally way

He had been running for a while and didn't seem to be getting anywhere.

"You know the castle is the other way?" A dark voice chuckled

He gasped as the blonde hair teen jumped down in front of his from a rooftop

"What is your name?" he half purred half growled

"Bakura," the white haired teen tried saying strongly

It made his feel sick in the pit of his stomach though

His brothers name

He loved his brother

But he felt sick saying his name aloud

He was banned from mentioning him in the castle

He was out lawed for his treason

He wasn't banned from the city

Just never aloud to return home

He clutched his necklace tighter

It was the only proof except memories that his brother had existed

"What is that?" The other teen broke in suddenly noticing how the other clutched his shirt

"Nothing..." Ryou quickly released the precious item

He wasn't even aloud to show it in the castle

He wasn't meant it have it

Their father had tried erasing every memory or trace of his brother

Much like he had with his mother and sister

"Look if your not going to bloody tell me why your acting so bloody weird right now," the other teens patience seemed to snap and he came closer and lifted up his chin calmly but with much force, "tell me something Bakura would only know."

Sugar! What was he meant to say

The truth

He breathed in slightly almost to scared to breath out as the other teens face was glued on his

They could be breathing the same air how close they were

"I snuck out of my home and I'm never aloud back," Ryou said.

If it was true

If this Bakura was his...his brother

That was true

All of it

"I'm banned from my home and my family have tried erasing every trace of me," he told the story as he had told him self so often, "is that what you wanted to hear?" he snatched his chin out of the others grip

"I suppose," the other huffed, "but if you present a threat with this new weirdness I will not hesitate to throw you at the guards"

"I know," Ryou looked down shyly "…I know…"

Was he going to be banned like his brother now?

it seemed like the other teen expected him to go back to that place

Where was that

he had been taught everywhere he needed to know in his kingdom

though he supposed if these were the rebels they would be hidden from palace staff and royals

"Tell me…" the other teen spoke again, "are both your parents home?"

"no…"

"Why?"

"My mother drowned," he looked at his feet hopelessly

He watched them drown

He hadn't died

Why!?

Some people said he made a deal with the devil

Others often told him he was just lucky

He was sure it was his fault for there deaths

But even so

No matter the reason

It hurt

Those word hurt

The ones he heard

The ones he was told

The ones he wasn't meant to hear

They hurt

"Ok," the other teen looked at the white haired kid in interest, "come home then or you can go on a wild goose chase around town until one of the guards find you."

he looked up at the other teen with wide brown eyes filled with worry

he didn't want to go home

his real home

he would follow this teen

he would be this Bakura child

For now at least
