The Firebird
Flame One: Sight
I can… I can…I can…
I can see!
My world. My creation. The humans are destroying my home. The world must be purified. Someone must awaken me. I will coat the world in flames. And I will start this world anew.
Someone will awaken me.
I can…
I can see…
I can see him.
I can see the pharaoh.
He is part of the destruction. He may call for a less polluted home, but he will unleash its eternal destruction upon this earth. My fire will destroy him once more.
Yami Yugi stared at the haze that seemed to settle on the streets like a fog. He hated this. The pollution and destruction and no one was doing anything about it. He looked up and couldn't see the stars.
"Damn." He said.
"What's wrong?"Yami turned around and saw Yugi standing at the doorway.
"Nothing's wrong."
"Liar."
"Okay. Okay. A lot is wrong."
"Like…?"Yami looked out the window again.
"This world."
Yugi looked confused. Yami explained. This world was so polluted that the real stars hide themselves at night, and no one can enjoy them. It didn't matter what some people were doing about it. The damage had been done.
"I see." Yugi said.
Yami stared back out the window again. Maybe tomorrow he would duel and make himself feel better. He sighed and crawled onto the air mattress that was his bed at the moment. He was gonna sleep and hopefully feel better in the morning. It was Summer Vacation, and there was nothing better to do.
I will get him…
He is asleep…
I will enter his mind…
I will enter his dreams…
He will not hear me…
I will enter his hikari…
He will hear me…
~*~*~*~*~
Yugi looked around. He was standing on a grassy hill, under a perfect, cloudless blue sky. He could smell lilacs on the breeze. He saw a mountain, and something was calling him to climb it.
"This is the perfect world." He said to himself.
Yugi noticed that the grass and plants and f lowers stopped at the foot of the mountain. He shook his head once and began the surprisingly easy climb. He looked behind his shoulder and what was once green was now brown and polluted. Smokestacks from cities poured black smog into the once blue skies. He shook his head and continued his climb.
There was no lava or magma in the crater at the top. But there was a small bulge, like a hill or a shrine or something. Yugi slid down the side of the wall to get a closer look.
The bulge was actually a bird statue. It was haunched over, head still towering a few feet over Yugi's head. Yugi stared in wonder.
~You…who are you…~
I'm Yugi Muto.
~Have you seen…?~
Seen what?
~What happened to my world?~
It's polluted. People and factories and cities are destroying it.
~What? How would you…someone so pure…live in a world like that?~
I have no choice.
~I need wake. Rise from my eternal slumber…~
Will you fix the world?
~Awaken me Yugi Muto.~
Call me Yugi. How do I wake you? And why would I want to?
~I will cleanse the world. Make it pure for you to live in.~
Am I the only one who is pure?
~Awaken me…~
I…
~Let me rise from my slumber and cleanse this world.~
I…
~This world is dying. Zorn. Destruction. Death.~
I…
~Awaken me…~
I want to live somewhere where I can look up at the skies and see the real stars at night.
~Yes…~
I want to go to a river and not see bottles and paper floating in it.
~Yes child…~
I want this world to be reborn.
~And so it shall be…~
The stone bird moved. Its eyes opened and the stone around it crumbled and fell away. Yugi stepped back. The bird was completely composed of fire and magma. It did not harm Yugi though. The fire did not burn. It flew to the top of the mountain and waited for Yugi to come. Yugi was taken aback by the sheer size of this bird. It screeched once it saw the pollution and destruction of her world.
With one sweep of its great wings, it was airborne, and washing over the world's cities and towns, leaving fire and ruins in its wake. Yugi watched in horror as he heard the screams of those dying. He ran down the mountain to find himself in the ruins of Domino.
"Yami! Yami!"
He saw Ryou, and Seto. They didn't seem to hear him. Yugi thought immediately that he was dead, and so were they. Someone put their hands oh his shoulder. He whirled around and saw that it was Malik.
"Come, but I can't promise that it'll be good."
Yugi looked at what they were crowding around, and he screamed.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Yugi! Wake up Yugi!" Yami cried, shaking him a few times.
Yugi woke with a start.
"What time is it?"
"Three AM. You were talking to yourself, and towards the end, you were screaming."
"What was I talking about?"
"Something about cleansing the world and stuff like that."
Yugi shook his head once or twice.
"You're okay right?" Yugi asked.
Yami looked puzzled.
"Why wouldn't I be?"
Yugi shrugged.
"Never mind. Go back to bed."
Yami said nothing, but gave Yugi one worried glance before crawling back into bed. If Yugi was concerned about something, then the outcome couldn't be good.
