Chapter 1: Yami Bakura's New Power

It has been a week since Yugi and Yugioh got back from the Pridelands. They liked the experience for the most part. They really enjoyed the beauty of the jungle. They were currently at a baseball with their friends. The Dodgers and Orioles came from America to play in Japan. It was the bottom of the 9th, the Dodgers were down by three runs. The score was Orioles 9, Dodgers 6, and the Dodgers had two outs. The bases were loaded, and the next man stepped up to bat. The Orioles pitcher threw a slider. The batter swung and missed for the first strike.
Then the pitcher threw a fastball that went pretty far out of the strike zone for ball one. The pitcher did the same thing two more times, and the count was 3 balls, 1 strike. Then the pitcher threw another slider for the second strike. The suspense was at its peak now. The next ball would decide who won. The pitcher threw another slider. The batter was ready for it this time and swung as hard as he could. The bat made contact, and the ball went flying. It sailed over the fence, winning the game for the Dodgers. The crowd cheered, and started exiting the stadium.
"That was a great time," Bakura said.
"Yes it was. Those teams are good," Yugi added.
Suddenly, Yami Bakura was struck by what looked like lightning. The strange thing was that there wasn't a cloud in the sky.
"Yami, are you all right?" Bakura asked.
"Yes Bakura, I'm fine," Yami Bakura responded. "Strange, there's no cloud in the sky. Also, I'm not hurt in any way," he added.
"Let's get home," Bakura said.
Bakura and Yami Bakura headed for home while their friends did likewise.
"What do you think could've happened with Yami Bakura?" Yugi asked.
"I don't know, but I have a feeling that it's very good news," Yugioh responded as he flew through the air.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the game shop. Yugioh landed and but Yugi down. They went inside adn up the stairs to their room. It started to get dark. Yugi was still worried about Yami Bakura. Yugioh saw Yugi's worry.
"Don't worry Yugi. Everything will be fine. I don't think that Yami Bakura was struck by ordinary lightning. I felt magical power from the bolt radiating through his body. It is the same power that radiates from me," Yugioh said.
"That can only mean that the Great Spirit gave Yami Bakura the power," Yugi said with relief.
"Yes Yugi, I did strike him with power. He's feeling it now," the Great Spirit said.
Back at Bakura's house, Yami Bakura was feeling the effects of the "weird" lightning. The first way was that he didn't have the need or want to eat or drink anything. Four hours later, Bakura went to bed. Yami Bakura usually slept as well, but he wasn't sleepy at all. He just watched Bakura sleep.
'I wonder what is happening to me,' Yami Bakura thought.
The next money, Yami Bakura moved to awaken Bakura. He thought he put a gentle grip on Bakura's shoulder. Bakura's eyes snapped open.
"Can you loosen your grip on me?" Bakura asked in pain.
Yami Bakura took his hand off and said, "Sorry about that. I guess I don't know my own strength."
"Yeah, but how did you get that strong? It felt as though I was being squeezed by a giant," Bakura said. He tried to move his shoulder, but it was broken. "Aaahhh!" he screamed in pain.
Yami Bakura removed Bakura's hand and very gently put his own on the shoulder. He started to massage it. As he massaged it, he saw his hand glow blue. Bakura didn't feel any pain from it, so Yami Bakura kept his hand on Bakura's shoulder. Bakura felt magic coursing through his shoulder.
A few moments later, Yami Bakura removed his hand. Bakura tried to move his shoulder again and was amazed that he moved it without pain. It was no longer broken.
"How did you do that?" Bakura asked.
"I don't know. I guess it had something to do with that weird lightning," Yami Bakura resonded.
\Maybe you should speak to Yugioh about it\
//I already know. I'm almost at your house now//
A few minutes later, there was a knock at the door. Bakura went to the door and opened it. Sure enough, Yugioh was standing there, and Yugi was with him.
"Come on in," Bakura said.
Yugi and Yugioh entered, and Bakura locked the door.
"So, what's happening to me?" Yami Bakura asked.
"The Great Spirit has given you the same powers and abilities as me," Yugioh responded.
"So that's why that lightning didn't harm him," Bakura said.
"That's right," Yugi said.
Then Yami Bakura gasped as he felt someting trying to push out of his back. He then screamed in pain. Whatever was trying to come out was applying a lot of force to his back.
"Yami, what's wrong?" Bakura asked.
"His wings are trying to come out," Yugioh responded with worry evident in his voice. "Don't worry Yami Bakura. Everything will be fine. I had to deal with getting my wings to come out too. Just relax and concentrate on pushing them out. It won't hurt anymore after you've brought them out once," he added.
Yami Bakura closed his eyes and breathed deep. He pushed out with his mind, and his wings extended. They were feathery and as white as Yugioh's wings.
"Now, how do I use them?" Yami Bakura asked.
"I can teach you that," Yugioh responded.
"Let's start now," Yami Bakura suggested.
"Okay," Yugioh said.
They went outside. Yugioh spread his wings, and Yami Bakura did the same.
"Now, you must concentrate. Feel the air under your wings as you flap them," Yugioh said as he slowly flapped his wings. He felt the air underneath him and started to lift off the ground.
Yami Bakura closed his eyes. He cleared his mind and focused on the air around him. He felt the air go underneath him, and he slowly flapped his wings. He began to lift off the ground. He continued to concentrate and got higher and higher. He hovered in the air and opened his eyes. He was a few hundred feet.
"Well done," Yugioh said. "Now, let's take Yugi and Bakura flying."
They landed. Yugioh picked up Yugi adn Yami Bakura picked up Bakura. They flew off. Yami Bakura was a fast learner like Yugioh was. He mastered the art of flying in only an hour. They landed back at Bakura's house.
"Come Yami Bakura, I'll train you as I did Yugioh," the Great Spirit said.
Yami Bakura was then transported to the same place as Yugioh was. He went through all the training that eventually led to the training of becoming one with the elements. He successfully completed the training in a week just like Yugioh did.
"Well done Yami Bakura, you are ready," the Great Spirit said.
"What am I to do with these powers?" Yami Bakura asked.
"The evil sorcerer has targeted Bakura as well as Yugi. Yugioh is good at protecting multiple people, but another person with the same powers and abilities as him will help him even more," the Great Spirit responded. He then transported Yami Bakura back to the house.
Yami Bakura retracted his wings without a tinge of pain.
"So, you also only took a week," Yugioh said.
"Yeah. The Great Spirit told me that the evil sorcerer wants to kill Bakura as well. I will do all in my power to help out when necessary. You will need a powerful friend, and I'm that friend," Yami Bakura said.
Yugi, Yugioh and Bakura nodded. Yugioh picked up Yugi and flew for their home. He arrived in ten minutes. He put Yugi down, and they entered the shop. Yugi kept his grandfather posted about Yami Bakura the entire week.
"Well, Bakura's going to be in good hands, just as you are Yugi," Solomon said.
Yugi nodded. He went to his room and sat on the bed. Yugioh came up to join him. They just talked about what has happened to this point. Their conversation lasted until dinnertime. Yugi went to the kitchen and ate his dinner. Then he went back upstairs. A few hours later, he was fast asleep in bed. Yugioh smiled.
//How's Bakura doing?//
\\Bakura is fine Yugioh. I'll do whatever I can to protect him. I'll also do all in my power to protect Yugi if the time should come\\
//As I will with Bakura//
\\Well, good night\\
//Good night// Yugioh closed the link. 'Sleep well Yugi,' he thought.
