Author's Note: Still don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or its characters, though Nicole belongs to me. I didn't know what Ryou's Father's name was, so now he's Arthur.
'italics'= Bakura to Ryou
<italics>=Ryou to Bakura
Bakura refers to Yami Bakura, or Thief Bakura. I know in the Anime Bakura refers to Ryou, but did Bakura the thief not come first? Ah well, that's just how I'm writing.

Chapter Two- Meeting
Time: 2:32 pm EST
Location: In the front yard of the previously-mentioned house.
Ryou thanked the taxi driver as he sped off, and looked up at the address on the door. 234 Commons Road, just as he had been told. And he had been worrying that the cab driver had been drunk. Ryou set his bags down on the porch and raised a hand to the knocker.
*BAND BANG BANG*
From somewhere inside the walls of the house there was the sound of someone charging rather bodily up stairs yelling “Coming! Coming! Please don't leave!” and, a few moments later, the door opened with a click, revealing a teenage girl with pale-brown hair. Clutched to her chest was an odd plush doll, whose features mirrored the girl's eerily. The girl put her free hand on the doorway to catch her breath and looked across the threshold at the white-haired bishonen in front of her.
“Are you Ryou Bakura?”
Ryou nodded. So this was his new step-sister.
“Yes. Are you Nicole Frencheskini?”
“Yeah!” Nicole noted Ryou's accent. So her mom hadn't simply been confused, he really was Japanese! This was too good to be true! “I've been waiting for you! Come in, come in!”
Without waiting for him to ask for help, she took hold of one of the suitcases on the door step and led her step-brother inside. Once inside Ryou knelt and took off his shoes and, once he realized he wasn't in Japan, looked up at the girl. She shrugged.
“Mom's a little obsessed with cleanliness, so you don't have to bother with putting them back on.” She gestured to her own socked feet. Ryou blinked, and then nodded. At least that was the same as home.
Nicole led Ryou around the house to a small room in back. In it were a washing machine, a dryer, and a rack filled with shoes. “You can put your stuff in here while I show you around. Makes more sense then lugging it around while you pick out your room.”
Once again Ryou nodded. Somewhere in the depth's of his mind the spirit of the Millennium Ring stirred.
`This girl is rather trusting, no?'
<'Kura, please…>
`Don't worry, Yadonushi(1), I'll behave. For now…'
<'Kuraaa…>
`Besides, I sense a powerful dark force within the girl. She may be of use later.'

As Nicole guided him around his new home, Ryou couldn't help but wonder if his father's choice would cost them all their lives.
1: I think Yadonushi was what Bakura called Ryou in the original Japanese version. I'm not sure, so please correct me if I'm wrong.
