 "And now, to finish it..." Marik hummed, as he snapped his fingers. "...Cannonholder, use the power of Gravekeeper's Chief to take out his remaining life points!" With that, the Chief faded away, before the Cannonholder shot one last blast at the peddler. |

Picking himself up from the deep pit he created from his fall. "Thank you for coming...I'll see you in Hell..."
BOOOOOOM!!
LP: -> 0
Cards of his scattered all around the street, including one black card that gave a slight glow.

Breathing slowly, Marik stumbled forward. ...gods... that was lucky... he thought, before he walked forward; eyes locked onto the dark card. ...so... this would be the kind of card Bakura aquired... fearsome in the right hands... Even so, among these cards were also the cards of Exodia... in the hands of a mere peddler, they were a dangerous tool. As soon as he'd make sure he couldn't use this Xyz card anymore, he'd take the Exodia cards for safekeeping. With that thought in his mind, Marik crouched down to pick the Xyz card up. |

And that was all it needed to strike a pounding pulse on his head.

His mouth opened, though nothing but a soundless scream erupted from his lips. He tried to let go of the card, but... it was as if some force was outright controlling his hand into not letting go of the accursed card. ...nh... gah...!This... pulsing sensation... it felt just so... familiar... too familiar... ...no... no, not you... you're dead... you're dead...! Get out of my head... GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!! |

The number 4 glowed on his head with a purple hue.

He could feel his eyes dilating, as he grasped his head desperately; clawing at his very skull in desperation as the pounding grew heavier and heavier, to the point where he was just unable to suppress it. ...no... stop it... I'm not... going to...! ...oh... yes... you... are...His eyes grew wide as saucers the instant he heard a second voice in his mind... ...and then, everything went blank, as he suddenly unleashed an unholy shriek, as something formed within his mind. [tag=odion!] |

"MASTER MARIK!!!" Shouted a deep voice, as a man ran up and took his hand.  "Calm yourself, master! I'm here!" Good ol' Odion forced the card out of Marik's hand and onto the ground.

Slowly, he breathed, as his expression was hidden from view... "...oh, but Odion... I'm as calm as can be." And slowly, he looked back at his adoptive brother...  ...with a completely different expression than the one Odion would be familiar with. |

"!!!" That one glance from Marik was more than enough to send chills to his very bones. "I.it can't be...."

With a smirk, he turned to glare into his brother's eyes, as if glaring daggers into his very soul. Who could tell what wicked words would be expelled from his tongue now that this corrupt fascimile of the actual Marik was in control? ... "...PPFFHAHAHAHA!" And he... burst out laughing. "Oh, that look on your face, Odion! It's like you thought I was going to stab you or something! It's just friggin' funny!" |

"Oh, come on, Odion, what's with that face? Surely you recognize me, right? Right?" Something was... definitely off about him. "...oh, I know what it is... someone's sour because he hasn't gotten his Gummy Bears today! Am I right, or am I right?" |

"...." Suddenly, he didn't feel as intimidated anymore. "What's gotten into you...?" He glanced down at the card he forced on the ground. "A black card?" |

He took the card from the ground now, and simply chuckled. "Apparently, that friggin' peddler thought he could one-up me, Marik Ishtar, with such a weak card! So what if he happened to have the strongest monster in all of Duel Monsters in his deck? I held the power of Steves in my deck! Which was totally just blowing his life points away by shooting cannonballs at him. But since these monsters are holograms, it's still family friendly somehow!" Yeah, as Odion would clearly notice, it seemed like Marik had, for lack of a better word, gone completely insane. Concern from the elder brother? |

"....right." His eyes narrowed. Oh he noticed alright... "Master, we're going back home for now." He took his shoulder. "I believe your sister may want to see this..." |

"What, you mean she didn't see this happening already? Whatever happened to that foresight of hers?" He rolled his eyes. "Because shut up, I reckon. Hah! What a laugh, am I right, Odio-!" And suddenly, his head swung to one side as if he had been smacked across the face... ...before he began breathing heavily and in a panicked state. "...th-that... that was..." |

"Master?" He put his hand off Marik. "Are you well now...?" Yeah, he still had no idea what that was about. |

He breathed slowly. "...I... I think... I have a problem." he uttered, as he looked down at the Xyz card he held. "...not a major problem... but an obnoxious problem." At that point, he winced... Oh, come off it, fancy-pants. How can you consider this a problem? Now there's twice the piece of feminine man to go around for the fangirls to enjoy!"...nh...!" ...just who are you?Is this a trick question? I'm Marik Ishtar, the most vile and evil villain in this series to date! And the most good-looking, too!...excuse me?!Still only a nine-and-a-half out of ten, though... we never did get that revolving chair and kitten, did we? Might be worth looking into..."...scratch that, Odion. I have a gigantic problem right now." |

"...indeed." He agreed. "Let us call off our search for Bakura for now..." He took a look at the card. "We'll need more answers on this odd card as well." |

Oh god. This is too much. XD "As you will..." He nodded. He was worried, but Marik was right. They may never catch Bakura if they just leave it be. "Then let's hurry." He lead out. |

After some time searching... "It appears he's left town..." He said, thinking. |

"Perhaps Ishizu can help." He looked over. "It wouldn't hurt to inform her anyway." |
