Chapter 1: My Loneliness
Ten years ago…
:: Bakura's POV (age 7) ::
I ran through the grey streets; muddy water splashing under my tired, bare feet. My breathing uneven and forced…I had to keep running. Winding through the unfamiliar buildings and alleyways, I continued to blindly run ahead; not sure on where I was going, and whether I was going to stop. All I knew was that Mum was in trouble, that Dad was dead and Mum would be too if I couldn't find her.
Gritting my teeth at the sudden sting at my side, I charged on into the darkness; never minding the icy cold rain that began to fall on my pale face, stinging my eyes and hurting my view of site. I desperately tried to cover my face with my arms, but it only resulted in me slipping face first into the wet, hard road.
Bloody and torn, I tried to get up, only managing to sit up and cradle my arm. No person on the street took notice of me, neither did they care; pushing past to make their way back to their homes…pushing me back into the muddy water of the side road.
Bewildered, I edged my way to the pathway and leaned against the wall. Using the railing for support, I managed to stand up again. This was no time for rest…not when my mother's life was at risk. But I had lost my way hours ago. I had no idea to where they could have taken her.
That was until in the distance I saw her; I heard her call me; I saw them.
Robotically, my feet starting working and I ran to her. She had been crying; her once shinning eyes were red and filled with tears. She managed to twist her way out of the men who were holding her and she tried to run to me. Another held her back by her hair; her beautiful, long, grey white hair.
“Let go of her!” I screamed, trying to hit the man who was holding my mother, “She's my Mother! What are you doing to her!?!”
I had managed to hit him in the groin, resulting to him falling on the floor.
My mother grabbed me close to her and we hugged like that for those three seconds, her tears unknown to where they fell as the rain began to pour, before another man pulled me away.
“Mum!” I cried, twisting frantically as a hope of escaping his clenches. My mother only screamed again as a tall man tried to hold her back from me again. She managed to kick him away and ran back to me, pulling me free from the hold of the other. The men tried to get us again, which was really started to get me pissed with all the repetitiveness; but a lady in black leather halted them with a wave of her hand.
“What's happening to us Mum?” I asked as Mum cradled me, “Why is this happening?”
“Oh…I'm so sorry sweetie,” My mum answered, “Dad borrowed money from the wrong people and now these mean old people want their money back.”
“But…why?”
“I don't know sweetie. They're just mean people. Don't you worry about a thing…Why are you out here though? I left you with your aunt.”
“I don't like her,” I pouted, crossing my arms.
“It doesn't matter though sweetie.”
“Where are they taking you?”
“I don't know.”
“Will you be back?”
My mum looked at me but didn't say anything else.
“Mum?” I asked again.
“Okay, that's enough.” The lady in black said, walking up next to us, “Say your goodbyes before you die.”
“Please! Spare me! Just give me some time and I'll get you the money! Please! My son needs me!” My mum said, holding me tighter to her.
“Are they going to k-kill you? They can't!” I cried. I was so overwhelmed with everything that had happened.
“Sorry,” The lady sneered, grabbing my mother's arm away from me, “You've had long enough.”
“Mum!” I screamed, trying to reach her again but the tall man held me back.
They dragged my mum, screaming and kicking, towards a black van.
“I love you!” My mum called out to me before she actually was dragged behind the van and out of my site. I had to see her…I had to! What were they going to do to my mum?
“I love you too Mum!” I called back, and with my might, bit the arm of the man harshly. He shouted in pain and let me go. The blood still warm and fresh in my mouth, I ran towards mum. Like in a slow motion, I saw the van come closer towards me. I saw the lady raise a gun. I saw my mother, tied down to the ground…
“M-Mum?” My voice quivered as I saw her fate.
“It's ok…I love you…Bakura…” Mum said, putting on a brave smile for me. Her brown eyes, her grey white hair, just like mine; my own mother, my flesh and blood…Then there was nothing. The gun sounded, the bullet hit my mother…and those brown eyes of hers closed for the last time.
Tears came to my eyes for the first time as I knew my mother was dead. She left me alone.
“Mum?” I said, barely in an audible voice.
The rain began to cease and darkness once again prevailed. How could things go so wrong?
“She deserved it you know,” The lady said, patting me on the shoulder. She looked at me and then said, “You know what? I'm actually willing to take you in, how does that sound?”
I remained mute and just looked at her. My eyes must have reflected my anger as she just laughed and in a mocking voice said, “My, my…are we just a little bit sad about what just happened?”
I hit her hand away from my cheek where she had placed it. Then like a spoilt child, I turned around so that my back was to her.
Laughing again, the lady bent down, her face next to mine and in a smooth voice said, “Bakura is it?”
I didn't say anything.
“Perhaps you would join me and my friends? I like a guy with attitude such as you; and when you're older, I think you'd have a very delightful looking body.” She looked me up and down, “Very delightful…”
At those last words, she extended her tongue and licked my cheek. Disgusted, I punched her in her pretty face, still motionless as I saw her fall on the ground. She was by all means shocked that I could possess such great strength.
“I'd rather die then go with my mother's killer.” I said simply, whipping around to face her, fists clenched.
“You're going to pay for that,” She said in distaste, and getting up she said towards her men, “Take him with us. He could be helpful one day…all he needs is a bit of training on understanding whom his boss is.”
I backed away against the wall as the men closed in on me. I was trapped…but a sudden surge of weird power flowed through my veins, enveloping me in an unknown spirit. The Millennium Ring that I had around my neck began to glow eerily. This was unknown to me…but I felt safe. My father had given me this item before he died. He said he got it from some dig site in Egypt, and that the Ring would protect me as long as I had it. If I needed protection, then all I had to do was activate it, `It was meant for you…' my father's words echoed in my mind.
I had no idea how to work it, but it seemed like the Ring took over me. In a loud and raspy voice I said, “I think I'd rather you come to where I live…”
Confused, the men stopped advancing, the lady right next to them. I smirked and the Ring gave off a bright, blinding light. They covered their eyes and the next thing I knew, we were in a different Realm; the Shadow Realm.
“I hope you enjoy your stay!” I sneered, laughing almost maniacally, and left them alone in the darkness, alone with not even their sanity…completely alone, with no way out. Their screams proved the realms horrors.
…In another part of the Shadow Realm…
I sat and thought of what had happened. I was alone too…with only the so called comfort of the darkness. There was no way I was going to go back to aunt…she's a horrible aunt, always abusing me for fun of things…Besides, my so called extended family didn't like my family…and I could always fake my death. I knew how to look after myself; it was just one of the things Mum and Dad taught me.
“Mum…Dad…what happened to us? Where'd you go?” I whispered, more to myself then anyone else, bringing my knees towards my chest to hug myself, “I'm so alone…”
All alone
Well there you have it! What did you think? I know that the fic doesn't seem to bemuch yet, but trust me, it will be. I just wantedto do this chappie so you'll get more of an understandingto why Bakura likes this certain someone in the future, (when he's 17). Not telling, though you could guess. )
Please Review! They will be very much appreciated.And be easy on the flames… I'm sorry if it sucked.
