What if # 1. What if Yami Bakura held all 7 Millennium Items???

Chapter 1; The light fades, the forces of Darkness near.

The scene is in a cafe in Domino city, it is 4: 37 am, a man sits at a table drinking coffee and eating noodles, we see now that this person is none other than Bakura, who sits there holding his Millennium Ring as he eats.

Bakura: "I feel it, the darkness building inside me. The evil spirit in my Millennium Ring is trying to escape again..." Bakura stands up and grabs his chest, screaming in pain. "No! I must fight him; I cannot let him control me. Ahhhhh...." Bakura walks stumbles into the bathroom of cafe and leans against the wall. " No, my friends, Yugi... Honda, Anzu, Jounouchi.... I can't let him endanger them...AHHHHHH"

A man passing by the door hears the screams and runs inside to see what is happening, he enters and to see a shadowed figure standing perfectly calmly looking away from him.

Man: "Hey buddy, are you okay? You were screaming like mad." The man walks up to him and places his hand on his shoulder "Hey buddy, are you alright I said."

The figure smirks slightly.

Bakura: "Oh I am fine, but the question is, how are you going to fare when you are reduced to nothing?"

The man stumbles back and looks at Bakura scared

Man: "Wha... what do you mean buddy, I was just trying to see if you needed help."

Bakura turns around and looks at him for a moment and smirks. His Millennium Ring begins to glow a bright Golden color, and he raises one of his hands and points to the man.

Bakura: "I like that shirt you have, that Cobra design is very nice. I am glad you like snakes, because you will be seeing them forever!" Bakura glows a mysterious color and casts Punishment Game on the man, giving him the Illusion of thousands of snakes biting and engulfing his body.

Man: "Oh my lord no, snakes everywhere...” The Man stumbles around and tries to pull the snakes off of him and he screams in agony as Bakura walks past him. "God no, please God save me"

The door closes behind him as Bakura leaves the bathroom and walks over to the table where he was eating and picks up a book bag he had brought with him. He opens it and takes the Millennium Eye out of it and pockets it, slings the book bag over his shoulder and walks out the front door.

Bakura: Reaches into his pocket and pulls out a picture and stares at it for a moment. " He has it, and he will give it to me. I will not stop until all 7 Millennium items are mine. Once I have all 7, I can unlock the power of the Millennia, and I will have unstoppable power at last. You have what I want, and I am coming for you Yugi Mutou."  Throws the picture to the ground, we see the picture is a group shot of Yugi, Bakura, Anzu, Honda and Jounouchi in front of the Mutou Games shop where Yugi lives. Bakura walks off laughing and heading deeper into Domino City.

Domino City: The Kaiba Corporation Building. We are in the office of its President, Seto Kaiba. He sits at his desk reviewing papers, signing documents when the telephone rings.

Seto Kaiba: Picks up the Telephone and presses a glowing red button on the phone. "Hello, Kaiba Corporation this is Seto Kaiba" Puts his pen down on the desk and picks up a glass of water and takes proceeds to drink.

Voice on the phone: "Hello, I represent Industrial Illusions. We are going to hold a National's Duel Monsters Tournament in Domino city, and we were hoping that you would be guest of honor and help supply us with Duel Stations for the Tournament. We are willing to pay for the stations Mister Kaiba, and this tournament is to be very important for both our company and the economy of Domino City."

Seto Kaiba: Swallows the water and puts his glass down. “Oh, and I am supposed to forgive you and your company after all the things you put me through? I don’t think so.” Goes to hang up the phone.

Voice on the Phone: “Wait Mister Kaiba, our boss Mister Pegasus would like to speak with you.”

Seto Kaiba: puts the phone back up to his ear. “Oh, he would. Fine, I’ll tell him no to his face. Put him on now!”

In a room somewhere else, a man turns around and hands a man in a red suit the telephone. The man is Pegasus J. Crawford; He is the creator of Duel Monsters and former business partner to one Seto Kaiba.

Pegasus J. Crawford: puts the phone to his ear. “Ah Seto Kaiba, you never call or write, and we used to be soo close.”

Seto Kaiba: “Yes we were, before you kidnapped my little brother and tried to take over my company. Why should I listen to a word you say Pegasus, and why should I help you at all.” He picks up his glass to take a drink.

Pegasus: smirks and laughs a little. “Oh Kaiba boy, did they tell you what the prize is for this Tournament? The prize is more like a piece of a puzzle actually. You see Kaiba you hold 3 pieces of the puzzle, that’s what makes you mighty. However, wouldn’t it be just great for giggles to see someone else draw a Blue Eyes White Dragon?”

Kaiba freezes in place, he is so shocked that he drops his glass and it shatters on the ground.

Pegasus: “ Kaiba? Are you there Kaiba boy? I hope so. Please say something Kaiba, are you hurt?” Pegasus laughs.

Seto Kaiba: Stands up in his chair and slams his fist onto his desk and screams at Pegasus. “What do you mean someone else Pegasus! There are only 4 of those ever created!  One was destroyed and I have the final 3. 

Pegasus interrupts Kaiba.

Pegasus: “Correction Kaiba, there were 5 created, one is in my own personal collection and I think it would be funny if someone else wielded the 5^th one don’t you? I mean think about it, with another one out there. That means there is one that can be used against you. I trust this has provided some motivation in helping me put on this little tournament. My colleagues will talk with you and give you the details. Ta Ta Kaiba boy.” Pegasus hands the phone to a man and begins to walk away. “Soon Seto Kaiba, while you are busy playing at my little tournament, my friends will be busy playing at your research and development department. With your technology at my disposal, I will see her again.” Pegasus sighs and disappears into darkness.

It has been 3 days since that conversation took place. The citizens of Domino City is hurrying and getting ready for the arrival of all the participants in the Duel Monsters National Championship. Especially Kaiba Corporation President Mister Seto Kaiba. He has made certain that Duel Disk systems are made to exact specifications and that all work will be done on time for the Tournament. However, Seto Kaiba isn’t the only person who is working hard, there is another walking on the roof tops of Domino city.

Shadi is in Domino City, searching for Bakura. He feels it is important that the evil spirit of his Millennium Ring be sealed again and that he must make it happen by all means. Shadi looks down over the city, watching people walk below him.

Shadi: “I know you are here Tomb Thief, I will find you and seal you once again. You will never hold all the Millennium Items, I will insure it personally.” Shadi takes his leg off the ledge and turns around to see the dark figure of Yami Bakura standing before him.

Bakura: Looks at Shadi. “I see you have come to Domino City, that’s quite nice, now I don’t have to go looking for you. You came to me.” Plays with some dice in his hand. “Very nice indeed Shadi, you are quite considerate of me.”

Shadi: Stare at Bakura coldly. “You are a horrible Tomb Thief, a man with no respect for the dead or the living. I saw into your heart when you awoke, I have come to make sure you are sealed back inside the Millennium Ring. Now return this young mans body and return to the ring now.”

Bakura: Plays with his dice in his hand some more, closes his eyes and smiles. “Shadi you wound me, you don’t really expect me to simply give up without having any fun first now do you? I have an idea; lets play the Game of Darkness. If you win, I will return to the Millennium Ring forever. However if you lose, you will face Punishment Game and the Millennium items to possess will become mine. This is the only way really Shadi, and I have picked out such a nice game for us too.” Holds two 12 sided die marked with x’s  in-between his fingers. “Dice Rolling. As you well know, Dice rolling was used to determine one’s fate back in ancient Egypt. It is a Dark Game and works as well today as it did the Millenniums past. So will you play my game Shadi?”

Shadi looks at Bakura for a moment, and then uses Magic to make his Millennium Scale and Ankh appear before him as Bakura grins.

Shadi: Places his Millennium items on the ground and stands up facing Bakura. “How does this game work?” Shadi asks taking a die Bakura hands him.

Bakura: “It is so simple, we roll the die. There are 12 sides. All but 3 have x marked on them. The others are numbers 1 thru 3. You must roll 1, then 2 and finally 3. You must roll them in that order, you can get the same number as many times as you like. As long as you roll a one, two and a three, you win. However Shadi, if you roll x, you automatically lose. And you will face Punishment Game, as well as your items becoming mine.” Bakura smirks looking at him. “I will go first.”

Shadi watches as Bakura drops his die on the ground, it rolls for a moment and stops on a 2.

Shadi: “You did not roll a one, so your two does not count yet. My turn now correct?” Bakura reaches down and picks up his die mumbling and nods for Shadi to roll. Shadi drops his die, it rolls and lands on 1. Shadi smiles a little as he picks up the die and holds the one in front of Bakura. “Well Tomb Thief, it seems I am winning so far. You may go now.”

Bakura: Smiles a little and drops his die. “You know Shadi, the object of this game is to roll one two and three, and not roll an X. However Shadi, there is one small problem with this game.” Bakura bends down and picks up his die holding up a one. “The odds get even worse each turn, and you still have a 75% chance of automatic defeat. The odds are poor Shadi. Your roll.”

Shadi: Drops his die, he watches it roll and smiles when it lands on two. He reaches down and picks up the die and looks to Bakura. “Well Tomb Thief, it seems while my odds may be bad, it seems my luck surpasses even that.”

Bakura: Gets an angry look on his face, he drops his die and watches it roll on a 3. “Damn it!”

Shadi: “Tomb Thief, soon you will be imprisoned inside the Millennium Ring once more. Then you cannot harm anyone.” Watches as Bakura bends down with evil eyes watching Shadi as he scoops up his die. “You will not harm anyone, and you will never have the power of the Millennia. This is your end Tomb Thief.”  He drops his die smirking; his smirk soon turns as his face is filled with fear.

Bakura: “Oh Shadi, look at that.” Reaches down and picks up Shadi’s die and shows Shadi the big X that he had just rolled. “You rolled X, that’s not a good thing Shadi. X is defeat, meaning I win.”

Shadi: Stands there looking down, he closes his eyes and stands there, awaiting his fate. “You won Tomb Thief, I respect the Games of Darkness, even unto the bitter end. I have lost, my Millennium items are yours as we agreed, and I await Punishment Game.”

Bakura raises his hand. His Millennium Ring glows and administers Punishment Game to Shadi, erasing Shadi’s mind, and leaving him an empty shell, with no mind of it’s own, it falls down and just lays there. Bakura walks over to Shadi and gives him a small kick.

Bakura: “Shadi, I do believe you have fallen and cannot get up.” Bakura says, and then erupts in laughter. He quickly turns his attention to the Millennium Scale and Ankh that lay in front of him. “It has been a long and difficult wait, but at long last.” He bends down and picks them up and holds them in his hands. “The Millennium Scale and Ankh are at long last mine. I am close now. Soon I will have all 7 Millennium items, and then once I have them, I can unlock the power of the Millennia and the world will be mine to control. I will be the supreme ruler, and soon Yugi Mutou, Malik, you two will suffer your friend Shadi’s fate.” He walks off; laughing and holding his new Millennium Items leaving a brain less Shadi lying on the roof, completely brain dead.

Yami Bakura has 4 of the mystical Millennium Items in his possession.  With their powers, what will become of Yugi Mutou and Malik when Bakura meets with them? Stay tuned for part 2 of 7. Coming soon, part 2. “The God Cards show their faces, Bakura’s power is shown.” Better get ready.
