Where have I gone wrong? My plan was perfect. All I had to do was defeat Yugi Mutoh; I would have taken over Kaiba Corp. We would have been together again, just like I wanted for ten agonizing years. You were not only my inspiration; you were my life. Since fate has cruelly separated us, I've lost all passion. Gazing at your portrait isn't a consolation because that's all it will ever be, a mere painting. I long for the warmth of your smile, for the happier days I spent with you.
Your death has opened my eyes to how ugly the world truly is. You were the only beautiful thing in the world, only you. You were perfect in every sense of the word. I remember when we first met. How could I forget? From the moment I laid eyes upon you, I was captured by your beauty. Nothing could describe how I felt when it happened. Compared to you, I felt rather awkward, but I forgot my troubles when your eyes met mine. It was from that moment I decided that we were destined to be together. How naïve I was.
You died on our wedding night. Just when we exchanged our vows, you crumpled to the floor. My world shattered then. Even before it was confirmed, I knew you were lost to me forever. Perhaps it was a lover's intuition, but at that time I refused to believe it. I was too shocked to do anything at first. It all happened so suddenly. Someone around me had the sense to call an ambulance while I was shocked into stillness. In the waiting room, I just sat there in nervous silence. When the doctor came, he only confirmed my fears. You were dead. He then started blabbing on and on about the cause of your death, but I didn't hear a word of it. I was stuck in my own little world.
I started researching magic and sorcery to find a way to get you back. I truly believed that if I tried hard enough, I would find a way. My search eventually led me to Egypt. There I met a mysterious young man named Shadi. Something about him urged me to follow despite his warning not to. It was he who gave me the Millennium Eye which was recently stolen from me. The Eye allowed me to see you again for one brief moment. I don't know whether that was an illusion or not, but I didn't care. I just had to see you again.
For the next few days, I carefully formulated a plan, a plan that would allow me to see you again. With the power of my Eye and the technology of Kaiba Corp, I truly believed that it would work. The owner of the company, an arrogant bastard named Seto Kaiba, refused to sell his technology to me. However, that did not deter me from the plan. It was practically common knowledge that five of his company's leaders easily betrayed his father to help him gain control of the company. I met with the power hungry leaders in private. We conspired behind the back of Mr. Kaiba to help me gain control. They were a little reluctant at first, but I seduced them with talks of power.
Everything went according to plan, but at a crucial moment, I failed. Despite the fact that everything was practically set before me on a large silver platter, everything fell into ruins. I failed you and myself as a result. There is no longer any hope. I'm so sorry Cynthia.
