It is believed to be near the end of the world. All life forms are now destined for a short, meaningless life. Everyday is dark and gloomy and as soon as the moon hit the sky, none are meant to live. One by one, each by each their free will and life will be taken away by one soul. It is destiny for everything to be swallowed into nothing. There is only one boy who can break upon this curse, the one boy known as…
The two scientists look at each other, puzzled at this ancient artifact they'd just discovered.
"It looks like the rest got destroyed or taken away…" he let out a large sigh, brushing the soft dirt of his hand and onto his shirt sleeve, as he stared hard at the ancient Egyptian writing on the wall.
"What do you think it means Arthur? Could the world be in trouble…?" the elder shook his head, and placed his hand on the wall, his head swinging helplessly.
"If that's true then we must find the boy that is in this inscription as fast as possible." Arthur Hawkins, a well-known researcher and friend to Solomon Mutoh, the two agreed it was best to take the artifact back to the lab for research.
~~
It was a beautiful day in domino. The birds were chirping, and the wind was light. The sky was peaceful and calm, nothing more seemed to be so perfect.
Waltzing upon the pavement, a young boy, with light honey brown eyes, pale skin and long clean white locks of hair smiling contentedly to himself gazing at his watch every so minute.
He, known as Ryou Bakura the shy gentle type climb his way up back the staircase, and through the door only to be welcomed by his own apartment.
Closing the door behind him, locking the heat, he dropped all his school gear in a messy pile on the ground, crawling over to the mirror with a drowsy, faint expression.
"Wow, I really need to get some more sleep…" he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes, and tugged away at the tie around his neck, tossing it into the laundry pile next to the bathroom.
He forced a smile to his soft peach lips, his eyelids dropping more, as he scanned the stack of books on the desk. He ran his hand through his hair, releasing another sigh and he sat down on his bed.
`I'm never going to get any work done, if I'm this tired…' groaning, he hesitantly got up and collected all his books together and started straight away.
"Mmm what's the time…" Ryou squinted at his watch, yawning louder than ever. The watch read 8:56pm. He stared at it for a few seconds, not being bothered to move. Finally he'd finished all his homework for the week, yet that hadn't stopped him from feeling so tired.
The young albino gently rubbed his eyes, dragging his limp body to the bed, collapsing in a heap.
Shivering slightly, he mumbled tossing the sheets over his cold body yawning lightly and slowly drifting off to sleep.
~~
"7:30pm, nice to rise and shine. It's another beautiful day here in Domino! It's also time to wake up you lazy citizens as -" Ryou slammed his hand down on the alarm, groaning burying his head deeper into the pillow.
"Jeez, I feel like I haven't had any sleep in days…Ugh" hesitantly Ryou lifted his body from upon the bed, bags under his eyes as he crawled his way into the kitchen, yawning more as he does.
"Tea…tea… where did I put it?" he rummaged through the cupboards, smiling drowsily finding a packet of tea, and flicking the jug on.
Just as he was getting ready, something in the corner of the room next to his bed caught his eye.
"Well… what's this?" he scurried over the bed, kneeling down next to the item, his eyes widened with shock. His face turned a deadly pale, as he took a deep gulp.
"Wh-what's thi-this?!" he bit his lip, his hand trembling to reach the metal object on the ground. A blood-ridden knife, with the handle of a mythical dragon, Ryou felt as though he was going to be sick. He pulled his hand back shaking his head.
`I must be seeing things…No sleep isn't helping me much either…'
Heaving his frail body back up into reality he drank his cup of tea and got ready for school.
~~
"Hey Ryou!" a perky familiar voice chirped up, taking a seat next to Ryou.
The young albino forced a soft smile to his tinted lips, giving the other shorter boy a warm welcome.
"Heya Yugi. How are you?"
"Great thanks! You don't look too good…your face is a little pale…"
Ryou moved his hand to his cheek letting out a sigh.
"Yeah well that's what happens when you don't get any sleep I guess" he smiled warmly at the Amethyst eyed boy, who gave Ryou a sympathetic as the bell rang and all the students hurried to their seats.
"Alright class!" a lady with short thick black hair, strolled into the classroom, her dress neat and to perfection. In her mid-age she was surely a reliever.
"Now… Before I call the roll, The principal wanted to see one of you…with the name of Ryou Bakura. Which one of you are Ryou Bakura?"
His face turned paler than before. His heart raced as he raised his hand, slowly and shaky.
`This really isn't my day…Everyone knows the principal is a pedophile'
"Here miss" his voice was weak, and strained as he hesitantly stood up while most of the class gasped.
"Wooooo look what we have here boys! Ryou Bakura's been a bad boy!" Ryou felt his face flush, as he pushed his way past all the rude comments as a few snickers were heard from the class.
He quickly left the room, escaping all the mocking of the popular students as he felt the blood flow back to it's normal pace. His heart still raced furiously, as he crawled his way to the Principal's office.
He stood in front of the door, inhaling the fresh air around him as he reached for the handle. His fingers trembled as he twisted the doorknob, revealing Mr.Greenlaw filing out millions of sheets. His light brown hair was neatly brushed to one side, and his glasses fell to the top of his nose.
"Please Ryou, I've been expecting you. Take a seat" he made a hand movement for Ryou to come through, his eyes still glued to the paper as Ryou softly shut the door, and sat down opposite the principal.
Ryou grabbed a tight hold of his Millennium Ring, which hung proudly along his neck. A golden eye perfectly craved, along with a golden rim. His father had given it to him for a birthday present, when he was seven.
Returning back to reality his eyes avoided the other male's, as he turned his head whenever he felt the haunting pair of brown eyes burning into him.
"Well, Mr. Bakura, you must be wondering what you're doing here, am I right?" Ryou nodded quietly, continuing to keep his eye contact avoided.
"Just for your information Mr. Bakura it's not me who wants to speak to you." His huff deep voice muffled out as he reached for his glasses and cleaned them neatly on his shirt.
He stood up; his eyes locked to Ryou as he walked his way past his desk and next to the young boy.
"Th-the-then wh-why am I he-here?" he stuttered out, his face flushed more as he felt two hands on his shoulders. His shoulders became tense, as he tightly shut his eyes wishing this were all a horrible nightmare.
"Mr. Greenlaw. Mr. Bakura." A deeper rich, more pure voice spoke out, as a middle-aged man, in his twenties, opened the door and closed it behind him.
He had light skin, and a bored expression. His blue eyes were dull, and his hair tied up into a short ponytail. The white hair he had seemed and looked a lot more professional than Ryou's.
Ryou felt the pair of hands leave his shoulders, as he relaxed peering over at the new male in the room.
"Mr. Bakura, I need to ask you a few questions. But before that allow me to introduce myself. I am Haku Shinaro." He nodded to the eldest male, as he left the room and Haku sat himself down. Nodding to Mr. Greenlaw to leave, the eldest male did so, hastily taking a few papers from his desk before retreating.
Haku gave Ryou a stern look, and folded his hands together on the desk in front of him.
"Now, Ryou I believe…Where were you last night? And what did you do that previous day as soon as you left school?" he flicked through the messy pile of paper flicking them casually, his hard glare returning to Ryou.
"Um…I remember I walked home, did my homework… Feel asleep during homework time, and then when I woke up it was nearly nine o'clock I think…then I went straight to bed." He recited returning a smile.
"Alright, do you have any problems. Such as, Angst, Suicide attempts, Sleep walking -
"Sleep walking?"
"Yes. Apparently sleep walking can cause murders. Due to one's dreams and feelings"
"Hold on a second! Murder…?" Ryou gasped out. He stared in complete shock, at the other male. His jaw dropped and his eyes wide.
"You think that I- Ryou Bakura murdered someone…?"
"Well, we have no other suspects."
"But you can't accuse me! I would never-
"Yes and out information shows that you wouldn't do something like this, but in rare cases it might not be your fault. If so we must investigate more into this situation"
Ryou sighed. He knew there was no way to convince his guy but how could they have thought it was him? `They have no proof… or evidence that I had even left home! Which I didn't!'
"Hey, but what makes your…well faulty information have any connection to me?"
"Well at the scene of the murder, Sims Street. An elderly lady and young man both said they saw a white hair male enter one young lady's home, and all they heard were horrid screams. The next day, the lady in the house was brutally murdered. And you're the only one that matches up the to profile"
The young albino stared hard at the other white hair boy, his eyes filled with fury. He clenched his knuckle tightly and muttered, "You fit that description too…"
"Yes I'm well aware of that. I too, am being held for a suspect" the older male nodded, taking a seat up from the messed desk.
"I'm going to have to take you back to the office for a thorough investigation. But first, may we please take a quick look at your home?"
"Yeah, sure of course."
~~
Ryou's heart raced, the sound of the pumping was blocking all reality surrounding him. Haku, several investigators, and Ryou were all sitting in the car, none dare to break the awkward silence.
His knuckles were tight and his breathing was heavy.
`I can't believe all of this is happening to me! What did I do to deserve this…' his thoughts dragged on, captured in a deep mist of fear, anger, and memory. He let out a deep sorrow sigh, while the car came to a halt and everyone fled to Ryou's small warm apartment.
"Everything seems normal…" Haku examined the room thoroughly, jotting a few notes down in his notepad before letting his eyes wander the room.
"Hold on… What's this?!" the young blue eyed boy paced his way over to the bed, bending down his eyes turning to a harsh glare.
"Ryou…" Ryou shivered at the slight angst in Haku's voice as he staggered into the bedroom, taking a deep gulp at his already dry throat.
"Ye-yes Haku?"
"Please explain."
