Chapter 2: Regrets

Ryou had a great time at Yugi's house with his friends. They mostly played
Duel Monsters, a game that Ryou had grown quite attached to. He had
almost forgotten about his Yami...until...

// Use those two cards as a combo...it'll take away the rest of Yugi's life
points. //

/ Huh? /

// Just do it! //

/ Fine...but /

Ryou combined the two cards and took away the rest of Yugi's life points, as
he was told.

/ Yami? /

There was a long silence and then // what? //

/ W-why did you help me? /

//...//

/ Well? /

//... Don't get used to it! When we get home I'm still going to beat you. //

It figured.

__ Later that night.

As soon as Ryou waved goodbye and shut the door Yami came out of the
ring. Ryou tried to look afraid, but to tell the truth he new his Yami needed
his body to be unharmed...that meant he was safe. But only for two days.

Yami looked as though he was going to hit him but instead cussed and
punched the wall. Ryou was lucky...this time.

*!*!

The next morning was a Sunday. Ryou hated Sundays. One, he knew school
was tomorrow. But he hated this one even more because in one day he
would no longer be safe. Neither would his friends...nothing would be safe
from...from...those three.

Ryou quickly dressed and then went outside. He walked down the street to
Turtle Games shop (the place where Yugi and his Grandfather lived.) He
slowly opened the door and Yugi's grandfather quickly greeted him. The
store was just now opening and Yugi was upstairs with the others. Ryou
hurried up the stairs to Yugi's room and froze when he reached Yugi's
bedroom door. It was slightly open and soft voices could be heard from
inside. Ryou stopped and listened to them for a moment.

"Well Yug," came Joey's voice, "what are we goin' to do 'bout him?"

"I don't know but he seems to be getting much better... I mean he hasn't
showed up with any new bruises or cuts yet. And he doesn't seem to be quite
as afraid. I think something must have happened to his Yami."

Ryou suddenly knew who they were talking about, him. He listened more
straining his ears to hear everything.

Then Anzu spoke, "Well we just can't wait for him to tell us what's going
on."

"Like he'd tell us anyway! Face it the kid hardly ever talks. He's just messed
up."

"HONDA! How can you say that?!" Anzu shrieked causing Ryou to lose his
balance. Landing with a 'thud' outside the door.

Everyone inside froze and listened. Ryou stood up and slowly opened the
door. Everyone looked as though they had been caught doing something
seriously wrong.

"So..." Ryou said looking at the floor. "Is that what you all really think of
me?"

Anzu slapped Honda in the face and turn back to Ryou. "No of course not!"

// Yes they all hate you, now forget about them and return to your home! //
A dark voice mocked in Ryou's head.

/.../

Ryou turned to leave but Joey grabbed his arm.

"Listin' bud, we don't think dat of ya like that! We're just concerned dat's all."

"Please, Ryou tell us what's wrong." Anzu said with pleading eyes.

How could he tell them? How could he? There was no way he could explain
that he was going to kill all of them. He looked down at the floor. This was
too much for him. He was going to betray his best friends. His only friends.

"N-nothing, is w-wrong, o-ok?" Ryou's voice cracked. Tears began
streaming down his face.

"Ryou... are ya sure?" Joey asked placing a hand on his shoulder.

Ryou sighed deeply he had to tell them. Maybe they could help!

"M-my Yami...h-he's using me to..." Ryou suddenly stopped.

// YOU TELL I AND SWEAR I'LL KILL YOU! //

Nothing in reply.

//DAMNIT RYOU, I'M NOT LYING THIS TIME! //

Still no reply.

Yami was actually becoming nervous, he had to do something.

Fast.

He then did the only thing he could do without getting out of the ring. He
took over Ryou's body.

"No more questions!" He said sharply.

Yugi and the gang knew just what was going on, Ryou had been possessed.
