"What's going on?" Marina wondered. "I don't like all this noise." Her friend, Serenity, cringed.
"Marina, I'm terribly sorry, but the Yami demanded that all the stone carvings of the monsters he sealed away yesterday to be carved today."
"Is he insane?" The young pharaoh's younger sister was on her feet before Serenity had finished. "What about those poor stone carvers? How much money are they getting for this?"
After the girl was finished, Marina's eyes flashed so dangerously that Serenity was surprised she didn't faint or even die. She stormed out of the room, while motioning for Serenity to stay there. Her magic would be more protection than Serenity would.
Her magic was unique, one of a kind. No one else in history had ever had Gray, as they now called it, Magic before. It was a combination of Shadow and Light, both halves completely equal. If one power overruled the other, she would be in excruciating pain. But that had only happened five times in her 14 years, and she had promised to herself that it would never happen again. Her monsters were also...one of a kind. Only a few beasts did she have, and the rest were all of the Fairy and Angel types. They were all Gray monsters, neither shadow nor light. She had given the future "Fairy's Gift" card to Anzu, as a reminder that they were friends and would be friends forever and longer. To Jounochi she had talked her brother, Yami, into giving the future "Flame Swordsman", and to Honda had given the future "Soldier of Doom." She had given the future "Angel of Nevermore" to Jounochi's sister Serenity, who she had been talking to. She herself had also given Yami Kuriboh.
Now, her lovely features were contorted with anger as she stormed off to where she knew Yami would be: the throne room. As she stomped in, her 22- year-old brother looked up and said lazily, "Oh, you've come at last, have you? I thought you would complain much earlier than this."
Marina was known as the loveliest female in the world, with long black hair that she could sit on, clear aquamarine eyes framed by the longest lashes anyone had ever seen, and a slender and perfectly carved figure. Just then, she made anger look like mere pouting, but Yami knew better. He sighed.
He was the one who had taught her all she knew of dueling. It was he who had done his best to raise her well when their parents died when he was 11 and she was 3. He knew her, and they were closer than most siblings. Yami did not attach easily to people, but his sister was an exception. She was just the opposite: Yami accused her of being too kind-hearted.
"All right, all right, I'm sorry! I purposely let Serenity hear that they were only getting a few coins at the most to see how angry you would get, all right? Don't bite my head off, please!"
"Fine, whatever," Marina sighed, but Yami knew he was not yet forgiven. "I'm visiting the Place of In Between." One final glare at him, and she disappeared to the one place where he couldn't follow. The Gray Realm. Only she and her monsters were allowed there, unless Marina was shielding someone. Yami had visited the Gray Realm many times under her protection.
As soon as Marina stepped into the home of her monsters, she felt better. No one could follow her here. The sweetest little girl in the universe with angel wings was standing beside her. Her hair was dark brown, and her eyes a darker blue than Marina's. Feathered angel wings sprouted from her back. Beside the angel was a creature that looked like Kuriboh with pink paws instead of green.
"Angel of Innocence! Kuribess! How did you know I would be here?"
They both looked at each other, Kuribess cooed, and the Angel of Innocence, better known as Anaia, answered with her cherubic lips in a smile said, "Gray Angel told us."
Gray Angel was Marina's favorite and strongest monster. Her name was Anreielle. Marina walked through the mist that was always swirling around the entire Gray Realm, happily greeting each of her monsters as she passed them: Cissandra, the Child of a Fairy's Kiss; Wendie (Winter), Sandie (Summer), Sria (Spring), and Aliandre (Autumn), the Fairies of the Seasons; who if Marina used Polymerization would turn all four of them into the Supreme Goddess of Seasons. She talked to Wenna (Water), Fionisha (Fire), Fendria (Earth), and Wesis (Wind), the Angels of the Elements, and if she used Polymerization on them, the four would become the Ultimate Angel of Elements, and so many more monsters that Marina couldn't count. When she was happy and content once more, she snapped her fingers to leave, and to make up with Yami. No portal appeared. Marina frowned. This wasn't right. She couldn't be stuck?! She blinked, and transported herself, and Kuribess and Anaia with her to the edge of the Gray Realm, to the bridge where she could pass into the Shadow Realm; they hadn't left her after all of that time. Gray Magic was compatible with any magic at all, so she could visit both the Realm of Light, and of Shadow.
As she stepped into the Shadow Realm, she shivered. Goosebumps rose on her arms, and Anaia, who was flying with Kuribess in her arms, flew into Marina's arms, and wouldn't go anywhere else. Marina comforted her as best as she could, though she was scared, too. No monster or human could attack the Angel of Innocence without killing themselves because of her piercingly childlike sad last glance that made you feel as if you had murdered a defenseless baby, and so Anaia was afraid of no one. But if even Anaia was scared, something was terribly wrong. Kuribess, Anaia still holding her tight, shivered as well, which was also frightening. Kuribess and Kuriboh were boosted up by 2000 attack and defense points just by being near Anaia.
The Mystical Elf suddenly appeared. "Mystia!" Marina cried. The elf turned around. "Mystia, what on earth is wrong?"
The elf was agitated; Marina could tell, and that worried her even more. Mystia did not scare easily.
"A shadow game, between the Pharaoh and the High Priest Kaiba" Mystia put a world of scorn into the word 'Kaiba'. "Is going on. No one can get out of the realms, if that is why you're face is dead white."
"A shadow game?" Marina gasped. Yami always emerged victorious from every battle that he played, but so did Kaiba. And Kaiba had a Blue-Eyes White Dragon at his command! Marina shuddered to think what he could do if he unleashed its power. Who would win this time? "Please, Ra, Isis, let Yami win," she prayed. "Horus, Anubis, don't let him lose!"
"Please!" Anaia and Mystia echoed faintly. "He has been a good Pharaoh, all the people love him...Oh, Gods, please!"
All of a sudden, the tension in the air grew stronger, and they all could feel Yami drawing in more and more Shadow Magic.
"What is he going to do with all of this magic?" Marina cried out loud in frustration tears springing from feverish eyes. "Tell me!"
Mystia's skin went from light blue to white with a slight blue sheen. She grabbed the Princess' arm. "Get out of here, Princess" she said urgently. "If you do not have complete Shadow Magic, what he is going to do will kill you! The amount you have is not enough, and the Shadow will overpower the Light in you!"
"What is he going to do?!" Marina screamed.
"He is going to seal the magic into the Millenium Items! Go!"
Marina transported herself and her two monsters to the edge of the Gray Realm. With all of Marina's other monsters, they watched as the Shadow Realm seemed to explode. Heat burned their faces, and Anaia had started to cry softly, burying her small face in Marina's shoulder, thoroughly soaking it with tears. Anreielle's beautiful black eyes were shut tight, as if she could shut out the noise, screams, and terrifying scenes that were playing before them. Wendie swayed where she stood, her face paler than white marble, while her lips had turned red from blood, which was trickling steadily out of a cut in her lower lip. The eyes of Fionisha had turned a bright, glowing red, and her pupils had opened all the way up. She stared into the distance, seemingly lost in shock. Dethane, one of Marina's few male cards, a Marina fell to her knees with a thump. He was sealed away. Everyone was. She hadn't even had a chance to say that she forgave him. "Isis," she whispered, tears spilling from her eyes. There was only one thing to do. She took the necklace from around her neck, the necklace that she had poured her power into, and stared at its three pearls. One was white, one gray, one black. she sealed herself into the gray one, timing it to wake her up when Yami had awoken from his Millenium Item for at least two weeks. He was inside the Millennium Puzzle, probably. It was his favorite one. He had often spoke of it proudly, as if he was glad that he himself had made such a wonderful thing, never mind that others favored the Millennium Rod.
I am so sorry! It's so short because I couldn't make it longer because I wanted to give you all an idea of what happened before the actual story begins. I'm terribly sorry if you wanted it longer, but...you can tell me that in a review! Please! Hehehe, bribery. Well, I'll see you people later. And also.if you like Marina, please go and read Lady Pheonix Star's story, and complain that Marina's being SO abused!!!! Thanks! ~*Water's Angel*~
Also, please DO NOT yell at me, Twisted Fool. You've read this already so just shut up about the comments.
