Chapter 1-
The Return of The Forbidden One
About 3000BC- Ancient Egypt
As I walked down the streets of Cairo, people were shouting and rushing during the weekly flea market, trying to get the best deals they could before it ended. I was on my way to the palace to prepare for a ceremony, which would involve the end of what is called the Shadow Games. In this event, we would also bury the Millennium Items, items that would bring out what is known as Yamis, the up most inner power that a person has. The only problem was people not destined for these items would unleash an evil force, one of many reasons to erase them from existence.
"We thought that you weren't coming."
"Don't kid yourself. I'm ready to let go."
"But you're the only one who hasn't given up the item."
"Yeah, but I still have a use for it."
"What reason?"
"My own. Now let's get this ritual ready. We only have a week left."
I wouldn't say what reason, but there is only one person who knows of my plan. The Pharaoh. As this being the case, I could fulfill my destiny, which would carry me on to the next life. Not knowing exactly what it was, I was assured that it would be just as fulfilling as this one. Walking in to the palace placed me at my knees, for the Pharaoh wished to speak to me by looking for me personally.
"My old friend, my son is sick and we need you to perform a ritual to heal him. Can you do this?"
"Of course, I have to perform any thing that the Pharaoh asks of me."
"But you do not have to, if you can't find the convenience for it."
"And would be willing, even if I had other plans."
"Thank you very much. Your actions will not go unheard of."
I may be the Pharaoh's old friend, but it is still my duty to do what he asks. And I'm the godfather to his son, so if any problems that the prince might have, I am there to guide him through it. Being as the prince is sick, I will perform my own signature ritual of healing.
As I prayed to Ra, I felt my ring burn and my skin melting. The prince began to feel the effects of the power being exerted on him. When I was finished I felt a new sense of power that would lead to something that not even I can handle.
As the week passed I worked on my "Ritual Cards" for the Shadow Games. I introduced them three days before banning the game completely. But I also introduced five other cards, which when completed, formed a legendary beast that was said to have been forbidden to return to Egypt. The beast is known as Exodia The Forbidden One.
On the night before the ritual was to be held, I decided to play the Game one last time. I, being the one to have something that no one else had, the Pharaoh was the only one who would duel me. As the duel progressed I began to lose, and that is when my yami took over and the Heart of the Cards was passed to me.
My yami fought with no remorse. The Pharaoh called upon his yami, and the duel began to get ugly as cards began to release their power. My yami started to pull up the pieces of Exodia and I couldn't stop what was going to happen next.
I had no idea when I created Exodia that he would be so powerful. I knew that he would be strong, which is why I made him in to five pieces. But what I had thought would be just a strong monster would turn out to be the nightmare that everybody feared: the return of Exodia.
