Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Purple ❯ a sligt introduction ( Prologue )

Disclaimer: I don't own Yugi-oh. Surprise, ne?^ ^ On with the story!

~A slight introduction~

What to begin with, what to end? I don't know where to begin telling my history. Oh well. Actually, I kinda do. In the very beginning I have to state that I'm not a real person, or at least didn't start as one. Yeah, you heard right. I wasn't always a person. More like a bit of it. A pretty big chunk of another person, all right, but nonetheless, just a part. What I was?

Honestly, I don't know. Worse intentions, the personification of the other's hate, pain, and despair, bad karma… Call it whatever you want. In short, I was his black side, his darkness… his yami. But I was no real yami either, though. I've gotten to meet some of the real stuff, so I know what I'm talking about.

Yami no Bakura. The ancient spirit of a tomb-robbing bastard who calls himself the ´King of Thieves´ and inhabits the millennium ring (and quite often its possessor, also). Rather psychotic, with a tendency for self-mutilation (as long as the self that suffered was the other one) and a definite sadistic streak. I kind of like him, despite the fact that he can get pretty annoying when he wants to.

And then there's the other one. Yami no Yugi. Or "Pharaoh ´Iforgotmyownname´" as I secretly dubbed him. A hell of an annoying guy, really. An ancient Pharaoh who'd managed to seal away his memories during his stay in the millennium puzzle. Hah, how stupid can you get? I'll admit it right now; I can't stand the guy. One could practically say that he and I tried to kill each other during that little ep. in Battle City, or at least were getting as close to it as a several-centuries-old spirit and a part of a person can come anyway.

There. I'm already at one of the greatest differences between us. Both of the other two yami I know are several hundred years old. I'm not sure if it's three or five thousand since they both claim different dates, even though it's already proven that they lived at the same time (and gave hell to each other even back then). Yami no Bakura claims it to be 5000 years while Yami no Yugi says something about 3000 years. Due to the fact that the latter isn't even able to remember his proper name most of the time, I tend to believe Yami no Bakura´s version. That guy might be slightly disturbed due to a centuries long stay in a golden trinket, but at least he still knows how he actually landed in there!

So yeah, where did I let off? Ah yes, the age. As you see, yami in general tend to be some millennia old dudes who got their souls caught up in the millennium items and now used the bodies of their reincarnations and current hosts to communicate with the world. Me? I'm five years old. (The first one who says "little child" is dead meat!)

About five years ago, my ´host´ or ´other self´ was man-handled by his own father rather badly, which ended in him stashing up all his bad feelings and emotions, which in turn created, well, me. I killed his old man and used his body for my own means until Yami no Yugi banished me to the shadow realm in the Battle City finals. Admittedly, I also was quite a lunatic back then and tried to destroy the world and bring sacrifices to the darkness to increase my own power, but hey, you try consisting just out of negative feelings! At least I took care of our body…

…

…

Ok, ok, so I didn't! Sue me! Point was, I am my very own person with a very separate mind now, including emotions, intentions and - that's important - sense of sanity. Do you understand? SANITY!! Like in S-A-N-E. It's terrible! Admittedly, I'm not much saner than before, but it's still far too much! It makes me think about more than reaching one goal. And, what's far worse, it makes me realize that I'm currently bored out of my head. See, I've already begun talking to myself.

My name? Oh, yes, I forgot.

I´m Yami no Malik.
