"Heyyy I like that idea, Austin! I've always tried to figure out if there was a spell to do that with Ryou and Bakura before in the past, but now I bet wishing for it is a great way to do it!" Mage says happily, and he hands Goku the Dragon Ball and hugs him as well. Then a confused frown suddenly appears on his face. "Wait a minute... I never knew Marik had a Yami named Melvin.."

Marik looked away.

"You would be doing a terrible mistake if you gave my Yami his own body... He's a psychopath, and he would more than likely kill us all..." He said sadly.

"Fine then, we wish for just Bakura to get his own body" I said as I nuzzled against Marik, just asking to be petted

"So it's settled, we find the Dragon Balls and get Bakura his own body!" Goku said as he put the Dragon Ball in his pocket "We just need a way to find the others"

"True...." Bakura agreed with Marik, nodding. "Do I need to give a demonstration to how insane Melvin is?" He asks Mage, his ears swiveling to the side and his tail waving.

Something deep inside of Marik lit up like fire. Melvin was pissed off, and wanted his own body badly. He demanded control, and tried tapping into Marik's mind. Marik howled with pain and clutched his head, a horrible migraine pulsing through his head.

"Marik! Are you ok buddy?" I asked as I was seriously concerned with him

"Please no Bakura" Goku said

Bakura rolled his eyes, then looked up at Marik and hissed, not wanting Marik to change.

After hearing what Bakura says about giving a demonstration, an angry look forms in Mage's chibi emerald eyes. He glares at Bakura as if his eyes were as sharp as daggers. "Actually, you've already given me WAY too many demonstrations of insanity, Bakura." He growls at him. Tears begin to well up in his eyes. "Almost every single time you took over my own creator's body, you were always making my life a living chaos!! I had my own Yami once, and I worked so hard for so long just to find a special magic scroll in the Monster World RPG that contained the one-use spell to give him his own body... He only had his own body for just a few days..." Mage begins sobbing in a very depressed manner. "But then you murdered him one day when you tried to kill me, Bakura! My own Yami had to sacrifice himself because he promised Ryou he would protect me!! Thanks to you, he's gone forever!!"

"Mage...Please calm down" Goku said as he hugged Mage again

"My god! I-I had no idea! Bakura, please tell me you've changed" I said

Marik was rolling on the ground in pain, sobbing hard from torture.

"STOP!!! YAMI STOP!!!" He cried out and walked over to a tree, slamming his head on the trunk, wanting the voices to get out of his head and leave him alone. His forehead was splintered and blood poured down his face.

Bakura snarled at this, unable to change back

"How dare you!" He yelled, not knowing a good comeback to Mage's remark

"I just wanted to know if you're nicer now" I said before running over to Marik "Someone do something!" I yelled

"What do we do?" Goku asked

Mage calms down some in Goku's hug, but is still deeply depressed. He reaches a shaky hand into a secret pocket in his white magician robes, and when Mage pulls his hand out, he stares miserably at his Yami's dark mage hat, which looks exactly like White Mage's hat, except it is in a black-and-purple coloration instead of white-and-yellow. "...This is the only part of my Yami I still have left. I don't think I'll be able to bring him back to life ever again." He mumbles sadly to himself. He immediately becomes even more angry after Bakura yells at him, so he yells back at him at the top of his lungs. "OH JUST SHUT UP, BAKURA!!"

"Why don't you shut up!?" he snapped back, snarling and running up to Mage, jumping up and grabbing the hat, putting it on, feeling really weird as he did this.

Marik looked sadly at the fight, tears rolling down his face.

"Stop fighting!! Bakura, stop it! Please!" Marik begged, his migraine still severe. "You don't even care about me... Nobody cares about me except Austin..." He sobs hard. "I'm in pain here and nobody cares!!!" He hugs onto Austin, tears and blood rolling down his face.

OOC: Hey WhiteMage, check out the discussions, I'm posting Malik's pic on there real soon.

Mage becomes extremely enraged when Bakura tells him to shut up, and is trembling with anger after the hat is grabbed out of his hand. "Why you... dirty little..." He snarls angrily, and he snatches the dark hat off of Bakura's head. Right after he does that, and to get back at Bakura for what he did, Mage quickly pulls the Millennium Ring off of his neck, and suddenly runs away from him with the Ring, his staff, and the dark hat in his hands, running at a surprisingly fast speed.

OOC: Hooray! I'm so excited, Rose!

Bakura snarls, then loses control, Ryou now unconscious on the ground, also a bit weak from the sudden change back.

Marik lost it.

"See?? Everybody just ignores me! I'm useless... I'm stupid... I'm... I'm worthless..." He started sobbing and fell to his knees.

"That's it, hikari, say it... you know you're all of those things... just give up... give up..." Melvin taunted him. Marik did. Overwhelmed by his self hate, he passed out, unconscious. Melvin laughed in triumph and took over his body. "What's up, motha****ers?" He smirks, a flash of pure evil in his eyes.

White Mage slowly stops in his tracks after hearing the darker tone of voice coming from afar. He turns around and sees Melvin, the sad and miserable look still in his emerald eyes... but surprisingly doesn't show any signs of fear as he looks directly at Marik's Yami.

Melvin got up and grabbed his Millennium Rod from his belt, and unsheathed it, revealing the blade inside. "Now it's a party..." He smirks in a sinister way, and approaches Bakura. He grabs him by the throat and pins him up against a tree, holding the blade up to his throat.

"Any last words, Bakura?" He grinned at him.

Without hesitation, and knowing Ryou will die if Bakura dies, Mage approaches Melvin, still revealing no traces of fear or terror towards him. Then when he walks up to him, he suddenly speaks to him. "He doesn't have any last words... because I'm the one taking the last words from him." Mage says to him solemnly. He stares directly into his lavender eyes with his own misery-filled, depressed emerald ones. "Kill me instead, Melvin... but please spare Bakura's life..." Mage then looks down at his own Yami's hat in his hand, and tears fall down from his eyes and onto the hat. "Besides, I don't have anything or anyone to protect me nowadays anyway."

Melvin growled and narrowed his eyes at him. He grabbed onto the collar of his robes and yanked him towards him, and held the blade up to his neck. He stared into Mage's eyes, with ones of pure coldness and hatred.

"I want to look you in the eyes when I kill you..." He said and applied more pressure to the blade, delving the tip into his flesh, some blood trickling out his neck.

"Marik no! Stop! You're not worthless, you're awesome!" I said as I hugged Melvin to try and snap him out of it

Goku on the other hand, punches Melvin in the face "Never hurt my friends" He growled

Ryou woke up with a groan, feeling himself get pulled down, getting up and growling at Melvin as he got dropped, seeing Mage and getting even more worried, jumping on Melvin.

"Let him go, you demon!" He snarled, oddly showing a lot of courage as he did so.

Goku moves Ryou "This is my fight" He said to Ryou before elbowing Melvin in the gut

"Come on Ryou, we have to help Mage" I said calmly as I ran over to him "Anybody have a first aid kit?" I asked

Lying on the ground after the blows from Goku makes Melvin let him go, and with some blood leaking out of his neck in a spot just millimeters away from the jugular vein, Mage smiles weakly at Austin question.
"I know healing magic, remember? Technically, I am a first aid kit." He says while streaming more of his magic energy into his staff. White Mage then points the tip of it at the wound, and within just a couple seconds, the blood on his neck is cleaned off and the wound completely vanishes like it never existed. He slowly sits up, staring at Melvin once again, but still does not show any signs of fear towards the spiky-haired Yami. Instead, he speaks to Melvin with a sad expression.
"Melvin, I know there's a reason why you always want to kill people without mercy. I believe I do know what that reason is. It's because people have shown you nothing but coldness and pure hatred since day one, isn't it? You want to be given love and compassion instead of those dark feelings..." He says calmly to him. Then, nothing but pure pity forms in his kawaii emerald eyes. "Just because you're a Yami, it doesn't mean you should always be seen as a dark being that is purely evil, Melvin. Trust me, my Yami may be my dark side, but he wasn't evil one bit." He tells him while hugging the dark mage hat close to him. Mage then looks at Ryou. "You remember Shadow Mage Bakura, right Ryou-sama? The Yami I only got to know for a few days before your Yami killed him?"

Ryou looks at Mage, sighing. He nods. "Yes, I do remember him, Mage" He said with a sad expression. "And I also remember how upset you were..." Ryou hugged him, not really knowing what to say, always thinking that it was his fault that Shadow Mage Bakura got killed that day. He started to tear up a bit from the thought and event repeating in his mind. "You were devastated..." he mumbled, a tear falling from his face as he hugged his creation.

Melvin snarled at the people who were attacking him, but the punches did not phase him one bit. He looked at Mage and grinned, showing his fangs.

"You're right... Nobody cares about me! Everyone just wishes I should go die in a hole somewhere..." He smirks. "Maybe I should do just that.... Bury myself alive out in Egypt somewhere... then Marik's body would die as well, and he'd never have a chance to get it back!" He burst into a psychotic laughter and grabbed Mage again, pointing the blade at his gut. "I'm trying to decide if I should gut you like a deer, or let you bleed out from your neck... Tough choice..." He raised an eyebrow, smirking at him.

The dark hat slips out of his hand after Melvin grabs him again, where it lands right next to Ryou after Mage is pulled away from him. Now feeling severely depressed and hopeless after hearing what Melvin says to him, he doesn't look at him right away.
"Melvin, I care about you. I was hoping I could be your friend, but I guess your response to that is already a no." Mage tells him in a sad manner. He then looks up into his dull, lavender eyes with his own, tear-filled emerald green ones. "...Can I at least give you a hug before you kill me?"

Melvin froze. His dull lavender eyes widened a bit, a faint and brief sparkle shining in them, but then quickly going away.
"You... you want to hug me?...." He looked down at the ground. "No one ever wanted to voluntarily give me a hug before.... Everyone's always been so afraid of me..." He says softly. Then he snarls at him, and grips the Rod tighter, signifying he was ready to stab Mage at any second. A psychotic look flashed about in his eyes, but then they grew soft again. He slowly sets Mage down and takes the blade away from his stomach. "I... I can't do it... I can't kill you for some reason..."

Ryou picked up the hat, then looked at the scene, scared out of his wits as he went over to slenderman, just because he though he was gonna get hurt.

Slenderman appears on the scene again when he spots Ryou quickly rushing over to him. He pulls him towards him, and hugs Ryou in a tight and secure manner. "Everything okay, guys?" Slenderman says to him, Goku, and Austin.

Meanwhile, White Mage doesn't break eye contact with Melvin after he is let go again. He slowly approaches him again. "Yes, Melvin. I'm serious. I do want to give you a hug." He tells him with a soft, compassionate expression on his chibi face. Mage wraps his arms around him, and he gives Melvin a big, comforting hug. "And I'm not afraid of you."

Melvin stared down at Mage as he gave him a hug and almost had a panic attack. He gulped and with shaking hands, he wrapped his arms around him as well and hugged him back. He pointed the blade towards Mage's back for a few seconds, but his hand shook so much that he just gave up and dropped the Rod to the ground, where a loud CLANG! was heard. A tear rolled down Melvin's face, not sure why he was feeling so different all of a sudden, and fearful there was something wrong with him. Why wasn't he wanting to kill Mage? Why was he not in the mood to kill? He didn't know, and it worried him.

Goku smiled "You've never had someone care about have you?" He said before joining the hug "I'm sorry for attacking you"

"I'm sorry Melvin, I thought you were just a jerk, but now I know that you just felt like nobody cared" I said as I gave Melvin a cat hug

(Ryou is still a kitty too, so he is just a tiny thing hugging Slenderman )

Ryou cuddled him and purred, still worried about mage.

Mage felt him shaking during the hug, so he loosens the hug just a bit, but doesn't break apart. He reaches up and gently wipes the lone tear off of his tan cheek.
"It's okay, Melvin. There's no need to panic." He says to him with a gentle and assuring tone in his voice. White Mage then notices Goku and Austin also hugging Melvin, and then he smiles up at him. "See? I'm not the only person here who cares about you. We all care about you!" He tells him with a happy grin on his face. Then Mage looks over at Ryou and Slenderman. "Right, guys?"

(@derpy Yeah I know he's still a cat. But who wouldn't want to hug a cute fluffy kitty these days? Not even Slenderman can resist a fluffy ball of fur filled with cuteness overload! )

An invisible smile forms on Slenderman's faceless face. He nods his head in agreement with Mage. "I care about Melvin too. He and I hang out all the time and play video games together. He's the best friend a slender man could ask for." He says as he approaches the Yami with the kitty Ryou still held close in his thin arms. Slenderman then joins the hug, using two of his tentacles in place of his arms.

Melvin couldn't believe it. People were hugging him. He panicked again and tried to reach for the Rod on the ground, but couldn't.
"I....I...." His heart raced at dangerous speeds, and he breathed heavily and fast. "I have to sit down..." He gasped for air.

White Mage quickly lets go of him in response to what he says. "Melvin? A-are you feeling okay?" He asks him with a concerned kawaii expression.

Doing the same as Mage, Slenderman also breaks the hug, but he still keeps the kitty cat Ryou cradled comfortably in his arms. He begins to feel bored, and then he grins in his mind, coming up with a new (but completely safe) torture idea for Melvin. "I know what'll help make you feel better, Melvin." As he says this to him, Slenderman swiftly wraps one of his tentacles around Mage's ankles, where he then dangles him upside-down in midair. He then uses a second tentacle to tickle White Mage's ribs.

"H-hey!! Slenderman, what are yo---!!" Mage drops the sentence and suddenly screams with hard laughter right as soon as he is attacked with tickles, and tries covering up his ribs with his arms to avoid the tickles.

Melvin smirked, his heartbeat slowing down after Mage lets go of him. He then grabs his Rod off the ground and is about to torture Mage with it, but he has second thoughts. Instead, he throws it onto the ground, and tickles Mage's ribs also.
"Hehehe..." For once, Melvin was enjoying something that didn't involve murdering someone.

OOC: Brb guys!

Slenderman quits tickling Mage and then reaches a third tentacle at him, using the second and third ones to hold Mage's hands behind his back and away from his ribs, letting Melvin do the honors of tickling him while keeping the chibi white magician dangling upside-down. He gently pets the Ryou kitten as he watches White Mage with a invisible grin of amusement.

"Bwaaahahaha!! Aahahahha nuuuu!!!" White Mage's laughter becomes even louder after Slenderman makes his ribs now completely vulnerable to Melvin's tickles. He laughs so hard, tears start to roll down his face.

OOC: Bye Rose! I gotta go too, guys. A friend of mine and I are going to head over to a County Fair soon, and I need to get ready. Ttyl!

OOC: OKay guys~

Ryou snickered at this, laughing, his tail fluffing up as he paws at Slenderman, his ears perking up as he wanted to tickle Mage with his tail.

OOC: By the way, rose....I would like to see some of your art someday~

Melvin smirked wider and really started laying in the tickles to Mage.

"What's the matter, White Mage? Are you ticklish??" He chuckles and tickles him harder, finding great amusement in this.

OOC: Okay, see ya later WhiteMage. And derpyhooves, idk what to show you, so I'll just show ya this most recent thing I've done. It's Malik, which is Marik's ancient Egyptian version of himself, like how Thief King Akefia is Bakura's past self.

((Omg, rose....that is beautiful!))

Ryou kept watching, climbing on Slenderman's shoulder and tickling Mage's nose with his tail.

"Looks like somebody is having fun" I said to Melvin before looking up at Slenderman

"How about I tickle you!" Goku said as he tickled Melvin's ribs

(Thanks!! )

Melvin burst into laughter, and dropped to the ground, rolling around and trying to escape Goku's tickles.
"HAhaha!! N-no!" He cried out.

"Guess you're ticklish too buddy" Goku said as he continued tickling Melvin's ribs

(Heyyy wazzup guys! I haz returned! )

Slenderman loosens his grip on kitty Ryou as he feels him pawing at him, letting him climb up on his shoulder. He still doesn't let go of Mage, snickering as Ryou tickle his nose, and nods his head at Austin in agreement.

Due to laughing extremely hard at this point, Mage is unable to respond to what Melvin asks him. After Goku attacks the Yami with tickles, he begins calming down his laughter, but sneezes a few times during the process while Ryou tickles his nose with his fluffy white tail.

"Bwahahaha!!" Melvin continued to roll on the ground with laughter. "St-stop, I'm w-warning you!" He growled.

"Ok buddy" Goku said as he stopped tickling Melvin and sat next to him

I rubbed my head against Slenderman's legs

Melvin huffed and caught his breath, then sat up.
