Btw, if you want to know where Bakura lists the names of all his knives in his knife collection, check out Littlekuriboh's Marik plays Slender episode.....4? 5? One of those.

Bakura, after a bath and a change of clothes, had a cup of tea with Ryou. Ryou just chatted all about how scary the storm was and how lucky Bakura was to have survived.
But Fluffy wasn't listening. He kept thinking about those lavender eyes. How they pierced him like a...

"Wait a minute....?!" Bakura quickly checked his pockets, and his seat, and even his hair (because Ra knows what's hiding in there).

"What's wrong?"

"Knifey! My knife! My favorite knife! It's gone! No....not knifey!"

"Maybe you forgot it on the boat?"

"No, it was in my pocket when I jumped out!"

Ryou sipped his tea with his cute little pinkie out (because Ryou is so adorable!). "Maybe it's in the ocean."

Bakura hit the wall. "But I loved that knife!"
He tried to remember what happened after he almost drowned, but nothing came to him. He just woke up to a horrible voice and a cute person on top of him. But it wasn't too surprising, that's how a lot of people's awakening turns out. *wink wink*

"That voice....." Bakura shuddered.

"What voice? What are you talking about?"

"There was a person, with a beautiful face and gorgeous lavender eyes, and a horrible, horrible voice. But they were cute, so whatever."

Ryou smiled and wiggled his eyebrows. "So, where'd you meet?"

"That's the thing..." Bakura sat down again, upset. "I don't know if I was hallucinating. I don't even know if they're real."

"We all fall in love with imaginary people at one point in our lives."
You said it, Ryou.

"Yes, but..." Bakura stood up and looked toward the ocean. "There's no way it was imaginary. That person is out there somewhere, and I'm going to find them. I just need to look for blonde hair, lavender eyes, and a horrible voice. This shouldn't be too hard."

"You're tea's getting cold." Ryou whined.

"Tea is for British people."

"You. Are. British."

Bakura groaned. "I'm not British, I'm just gay."

Odion and Ishizu watched Marik's new habits in horror.

1) He was constantly humming. Annoyingly.
2) He was smiling like an idiot, and twirling his hair and spinning in circles.
Marik was picking petals off of a flower. "He loves me, he loves me not. He loves me..."

Ishizu didn't notice that her father was watching Marik's odd behavior as well. "Soemthing seems off about Billy..." He said.

"His name's Marik."

Ishizu was ignored, as usual. "Why does he seem so messed up in de heeaaad? Did Cornelius bite him and he didn't suck de venom out fast enough?"

"No. I'm afraid not."

A school of fish giggled as they swam by Marik's plucked flower piles.
"He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me, he-" he noticed the last petal on the flower. He already used up the other ones, so he rips it in half. "He loves me! I knew it!"

His father didn't pay any attention to the "he" part. "La-ove? Billy's in la-ove?"

"Marik..."

"Who is the lucky mermaid that will have the honor of marrying my little Billy?"

"MARIK."

He had already left to try to figure out who Marik was in love with.
But if he did find out, Ra knows what will happen?

***

"Thank you Odion! Thank you!" Marik squeezed him in a hug that could have suffocated him.

"Just don't tell Ishizu that you have this." He hugged Marik back, happy that he was happy.

Marik held the object in his hands. "I still can't believe you found this!"

"Found what?"
Ishizu stood in the entrance with crossed arms. There was no way Marik could be in anymore trouble than he already was.

Marik hid it behind his back. "Nothing."

With a raised brow, Ishizu got closer, and Marik backed away. They repeated this until he was against the wall. She held out her hand, and Marik looked down in guilt. With a tight grip around it, he showed her the knife.

Bakura's knife.

"Marik!"

"I'm sorry! It was so pretty! I just had to keep it."

Ishizu banged her head against the wall. "Marik, you are going to be the death of all of us."

He smiled as he opened the blade (I should mention its a pocketknife). He looked at his reflection in the metal. "This is Bakura's special knife. I need to take care of it." He blushed and sighed dreamily. He closed the knife again and held it to his chest as he lie down.

"Marik, are you gay?"

"What!?" He shot back up. "No! I'm not! It's just...Bakura is a really good.....inspiration......and.......role model. He's so cool! Have you seen his hair? Ishizu, it's like PEARLS. And his eyes, and his smile?"

He fell back over. "I'm so happy that I got to see him up close."

"See WHO up close?" Said a voice from the entrance.

Marik's eyes widened in horror as he saw his father.

"Billy....what is this place?"
