I think that this is my favorite story, I can actually see this happening. Had this really happen in the real show, I think I would have liked the show more. Anyway, Great story!

O_O i... i...

with all the twists you worked, i don't know what i love more. i'm always on the lookout for a good evil!Ryou and i love how you worked him up to it. everything you did to the Thief King seems both odd and believable, even the other bearers abusing him. it was so sweet to see him practically canon when he's protecting Ryou! even the twists with IT feel right, Bakura somehow managing to break free of IT, all his schemes were to prepare yami for the final battle. a few thousand years sealed up with a dark god, you either find out the truth or give up, and even your 'nearly broken Thief King Bakura' wouldn't. -

and the revenge, that even Malik was involved, beautiful!

my only complaint is there was not smex, but overall story-wise it makes sense that there wasn't.

That... was awesome!

Holy crap. I really love this fic. (L)

Damn I love Gemshipping XD and Yuugi getting his ass tortured! The anime is all Woo-happiness, so this kinda thing makes a nice change.

Very nice way of portraying Thief King btw, it was different yet believable _

With love;

this was the story that introduced me to the world of yaoi and tendershipping.

gods, love this story.

wow...that was amazing! I love how Ryou is in this, and how all the relationships worked out within each other. It was genius.

No wonder is scored so high in the competition!

Kudos

-s.o

Oh, wow... this story is by FAR the best Yu-gi-oh fic I have ever read... I realize that the best reviews are of constructive criticism (well, at least they are for me, but I can find nothing wrong with this. The writing style is AMAZING, and it is a very refreshing and original way of looking at the Bakuras. Usually, the whole 'Zork factor' is completely ignored, but you actually included it- even if your story had completely sucked (which it did not), I still would have faved it just because you actually remembered him.

I especially like the very end... I would ask for a equal to see exactly what happens to yugi, but it is perfect on its own.

This gets 5 dark magicians out of 5!

Holy... Whoa! Most of the story I thought that they'd get a happy ending, then the Thief King disappeared. Then Ryou went nuts. Then Yuugi... Just, whoa. This was awesome, and... I think I'm in a bit of shock.

Very well done.

You have to mke a sequell...please!You can't leave Bakura...where ever he is!

This is good!and the idea is jist what would explain the hole Zork thing in the series...because otherwise it really makes no sence if you actually think about it.

But I refuse to acsept Bakura...The Thief King is actually gone...

Now I'm depressed...you made me cry most of the las half...well all the last half...and I don't want to hate Atemu but I do have grudge aginst all the others who never even bothered to think of why The Tief King did what he did ...'walk a mile on his shoes' you know.I particularly hate Anzu!

Is there even a way to save the thief thing you think?If there was something that could be done...what would it be?

This story is amazing! (and here I am revewing for a two year old story. XD) The plot is actually kind of simple, but it's well thought out and doesn't get boring at all even though it's such a long fic. I love how Ryou turns so evil, and everything seems pretty realistic to me. The ending is terrific, though, because it leaves a wonderful sense of forboding. Makes me want to look out the window and make sure Ryou hasn't taken over the world yet. :D

Oh Ryou! Im so proud of you and so is Bakura. I should know. Show that miget. Malik was deprived of that privalege for to long! Nice touch with Honda and Anzu. A sequel would be sweet. Please do one.

that was the best one-shot ive ever read!i love how Ryou and Malik team up to kill Anzu and tristen! and hurt the spiky haired miget

O_O... O_O... O_o woa nice... im speechless it was SO goos! good cant describe it! it surprises me that u only have 8 other rewiews... well 9 now

I like your way on showing Ryou as the next evil one... and malik.. brr i really like his knives :P u portray him as i have always thouht of him!

god that was good best yu-gi-oh fic i have ever read! and i mean it make a sequel or something just... make more

Boy Ryou can play the part of evil well when it's written well, . anyway i loved the oneshot great job, i even loved how you put Malik in there to help out Ryou, well bye for now.
