Finally, the Bakura profile pic streak has been broken! I can't help but feel like it had something to do with the creation of the previous chapter... Hm...well speaking of which:

In the previous chapter, Yami Bakura had a little talk with Ryou about the Fourth Wall. In this chapter, he begins...continues...starts? I don't know... his attempts to break the Wall.

As I said before, this chapter happens as if he never did the previous chapter. Also, each chapter works a bit differently in terms of knowledge and feelings. Like one chapter, Bakura will hate someone, and the next he may not hate him/her anymore.

The genre of this chapter is: angst (because I couldn't think of anything else)

6. Use the Millenium Puzzle on it, the same way Yugi used the Millenium Puzzle on the seal of Orichalcos.


Time to figure out what to do. The ideal place to start would be finding an object that could break magical seals or walls. But where would he find such an object?

A little while ago, Bakura had discovered that he could now watch episodes of Yu-Gi-Oh!, at least past ones, and was at the moment watching a re-run of season 1. He was about to click the next episode of the season, but instead accidentally clicked an episode in Season 4.

"Oh damn it. Better switch back." He was about to click on the 'back' button, but decided to see what this was.

/"Previously, on Yu-Gi-Oh!..."/ Yami said on-screen.

Bakura decided to watch what this was. This season was unfamiliar to him so he decided to find out about it, seeing as it had probably already happened and he wanted to be in the know.

He watched and heard about the Orichalcos, briefly. He watched as Yugi, apparently trapped out of control by the Orichalcos that the Pharaoh had stupidly decided to use, took the Millenium Puzzle from around his neck and smashed it against the seal in front of him.

To Bakura's surprise, the seal actually broke. He had only know this about it: Atlantis was waaaaayy older than Ancient Egypt, and therefore the Orichalcos was stronger than the Millenium Puzzle. Then why did the Puzzle shatter it?

Even though it didn't make sense, Bakura was fine with the idea. If the Millenium Puzzle could break something as ancient as the Orichalcos, which is much older than books or television or anything that the Fourth Wall would be associated with, then surely it would have the power to break the Wall itself.

Now he had a plan.


It was late at night. The moon wasn't even out; not only was the moon barely a crescent, but it was also hiding behind the clouds completely.

Bakura stood across the street from a building. The only lights around were the streetlights, which he stood out of the illumination of, and the giant glowing "GAME" sign.

He smiled and snuck across the street.

He looked through the window checked the shop for any signs that someone was there or had been there but might come back. There were none. He took a few steps back and examined each window. None of the lights were on.

His smile grew. He began to climb up to Yugi's window. He looked in.

The only light shining through the window was a glow from the closest street lamp that barely even entered the room. But Bakura only needed that much; he had excellent eyesight.

He saw Yugi sleeping in his bed, the covers drawn up to the shortest spike of his ridiculous hair. The Millenium Puzzle might have been on the table right below the window, but none of the light reached it, and even Bakura couldn't see in total darkness.

Bakura quietly and skillfully broke into the room through the window.

He landed on the table below the window. Then he hopped off and faced it. He tried to peer through the darkness and attempted to make out some shapes, but it was too dark. He still couldn't see anything. He could try to feel around for it, but he didn't want to trigger a trap. If the Puzzle was there, Yugi might have placed some sort of alarm there that would wake him up. Bakura couldn't risk that.

Instead, he activated his Millenium Ring. This would work either way, both by adding some light to the room and by pointing out he Puzzle. It glowed and a single prong pointed directly at a triangularly shaped object. It was right next to Yugi's bed. A bit closer than where he had expected it to be.

As Bakura walked closer, the Millenium Puzzle was illuminated more and more by the glow of the Millenium Ring.

"Too easy," Bakura whispered.

He stepped closer to it, close enough that he could even hear Yugi's light breathing. He reached for the Puzzle. However, just before he touched it, he noticed Yugi's deck right next to it and didn't grab the Puzzle. Instead, he decided to mess with the little pathetic midget of a host that the Pharaoh calls his "friend" and "aibou".

He grabbed the deck instead. He shuffled through it, then removed and pocketed five cards from it: Dark Magician, Dark Magician Girl, the Change of Heart, Polymerization, and Monster Reborn. Let's see how well the King of Games can duel without his most valuable and used cards, Bakura thought sinisterly. He placed the deck down in the exact position it was in when he had picked it up.

Then he grabbed the puzzle.

Bakura held his breath for a few seconds waiting to see what would happen.

Nothing. Yugi didn't stir.

Bakura chuckled softly. Stupid hikaris. Always ignorant and weak.

He looked around. He gasped when he realized that he could actually... Well... see the Fourth Wall. It was somewhat off-putting, but Bakura just shook of the shock.


"YUGI!"

Huh?

Yugi suddenly felt his dream fading away and being replaced by a familiar location: his and Yami's soul hallway.

"Pharaoh? What's going on?"

The Pharaoh and Yugi stood face to face. Behind him, Yugi's door was opened. Behind the Pharaoh, his door was closed.

"I sense danger nearby," he said. "Somehow."

"In here? Or in the real world?"

"Back in your room. I sense someone messing with our Puzzle."

The Pharaoh expected his hikari to look worried and frantic, but that didn't happen. Instead, Yugi's face only showed annoyance and boredom. He even facepalmed. "I would have thought that you'd look a bit more worried than that."

Yugi sighed. "Same old, same old. Someone trying to steal the Millenium Puzzle and take over the world or something like that. It's just gotten so old. When will people leave us alone?"

"I understand," his Yami said calmly to him. "But you should still wake up, just in case. It might be the evil Bakura or some other thief."

Yugi nodded, but decided that he didn't want to anyway. Everything was probably fine.

"Good night, Yugi."

"Good night, Pharaoh."

The hallway faded away.

Everyhing is probably fine...

Something crashed against Yugi's head.

Or not...


During the exchange between Yami and Yugi, Bakura had been using the Puzzle.

He walked up to the Wall with the Puzzle and stood there.

He probably needed to activate it first. He activated the Millenium Ring and tried to connect to the puzzle with it. As an added boost, he also called upon the Puzzle piece that he had places a portion of his soul inside and activated that one piece.

He Millenium Puzzle glowed as it activated.

Bakura smiled. He lifted the Puzzle high above his head. Then with all his might, he smashed the tip of it against the Fourth Wall.

He heard a large CRACK! and was surprised to see cracks rapidly form in the Wall, just before it shattered in a giant hole. Bakura quickly turned around to make sure that Yugi was still asleep.

He was. The noise hadn't bothered him. However, he did seem a bit more tense than he was a few moments ago.

Bakura shrugged it off and turned to the hole in he Wall. He let the Puzzle deactivate and he carelessly tossed it over his shoulder.

"OW!"

Damn it!

He had probably hit Yugi with it.

He turned around and watched as Yugi thrashed in bed and fell to the floor.

He had.

Yugi sat up and rubbed the back of his head. Luckily for him, the Puzzle had hit him on a part of his head that was protected by hair. It had hit him hard enough to wake him up, but not hard enough to give him a concussion.

Bakura didn't care. He turned to the Wall and prepared to leave.

"Bakura?" Yugi asked from behind him. By now the clouds had uncovered the moon, so a sliver of light shone through the window and Yugi had enough light to see. Bakura turned around again. "What are you doing here? And why did you throw my Puzzle at me?!"

Bakura chuckled at him. "Good morning, Yugi. And you too, Pharaoh." Bakura couldn't see it, but he knew that the Pharaoh was probably standing next to Yugi in spirit form. "See this gaping hole behind me?" He pointed to the Fourth Wall.

Yugi looked and gasped in wonder. "What is that?" he asked.

"The Fourth Wall."

"The Fourth Wall?!"

"What? What is that?" Yugi asked. "You know what that is?"

"Yes, I do. It's-"

"I broke it using your Millenium Puzzle. I was actually quite surprised at how well it worked."

Yugi gasped again. "My Puzzle? But how?"

Bakura smiled and decided to mess with their minds just before he left. "Remember the Orichalcos?" he asked the Pharaoh. "And remember how you gave in to the evil and the darkness in your heart to have power and victory?"

Yami gasped as he remembered. "The... Orichalcos..."

"You went against your lighter and, at the time, smarter half in order to do so."

"Pharaoh! Don't listen to him! He's just trying to get under your skin! That's over now and you've already righted that wrong, remember?"

"I know Yugi," Yami said with a sigh. "But that moment still haunts me. You warned me and I took the easy, desperate, and wrong way out. I'm sorry."

Bakura watched Yugi turn to and shout at the air, but actually to the Pharaoh. "No! Stop apologizing! That day is over and done and you already redeemed yourself! Please stop worrying about it! I forgive you already!"

"But Yugi..."

Bakura watched the two converse for another moment before turning back to the Fourth Wall. "Well I really must be going now. Farewell my friends!" He leapt through the hole in the wall and looked back to see what would happen.

As soon as he walked through, Yugi stopped talking to Yami and tried to follow him. "Yugi, don't!" Yami tried to take over the body so Yugi wouldn't follow. But there was no need.

Bakura laughed. Yugi had almost made it though the Wall when it began to repair itself. Yugi just barely noticed and pulled his head back into his room.

The Wall catches the corner of one of Yugi's hair spikes in the repairs.

Bakura looks at him one final time, laughs, then turns around and walks away.


And so it continues!...

Stuff in this chapter that isn't mine:
Season 4,

The Millenium Puzzle's Fourth-Wall-Breaking abilities.

A note about how things are going to work with this: Each chapter has its own warning and genre. Read it to see what type of chapter it will be. And there will be an end to all of this, there won't just be me having him break it 10 random times and then end. You'll just have to wait and see! Hehehe...

Next chapter: Number 7 of the list, and Bakura brings sexy back!

See you next chapter!

BYEEEEEEEE~!
