"Isis militants have beheaded yet another American." a journalist reported on CNN, live from the streets of Syria.

Ishizu sighed. "I don't need my millennium necklace to predict this world is coming to an end."

She turned the t.v. off and walked into the kitchen, busying herself with dishes.

Five minutes in, Ishizu sighed. "Finally some peace and quiet."

Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock.

"Spoke too soon." she murmured, drying off her hands and then answering the door.

"Sister!" exclaimed her brother Marik, throwing his arms around her like he did when he was a child but this time Ishizu couldn't breathe.

"Hello-brother." she said, prying him off of her.

Marik made himself at home. He was followed by their other brother, Odion.

Odion smiled, gently embracing Ishizu. "Asalamolaikum."

"Walaikumsalam Odion." Ishizu greeted.

Marik plopped his feet up on the table. "Wanna duel, sis?" he asked.

"No, Marik." Ishizu said, removing his feet and sitting down next to him. Odion took a seat acrossed from them.

Marik made a face. "Why not?"

"Because there's much more to life than duel monsters." she stated.

"Like what?" he exclaimed.

Brrrrring!

"Those must be my brownies." Ishizu said, disappearing into the kitchen.


"Delicious." Marik said, licking his lips.

Ishizu sighed.

"Ishizu, what's wrong?" he asked.

"The Cairo scholars have rejected my application again, they say I don't have enough experience in the field." she said.

Marik gave her a small hug. "You'll always have me old sis." he said.

She smiled. "Wait, old?"

"Besides, I have just the thing to turn that frown upside down." he said, rummaging through his pockets.

"Oh no Marik not another worthless item. If I have to take one more piece of junk to the curator..." she started.

He presented her with a small box that resembled a rubix cube.

"Please tell me I found something." he said.

In under a minute, Ishizu figured out how to open the box, revealing folded parchment.

Ishizu pulled out the parchment and unfolded it. She gasped, something was written in ancient egyptian hieroglyphs.

"Whats it say?" Marik asked eagerly.

Ishizu studied the piece. "It appears to be some sort of chant." she said.

Odion shifted uneasily. "Miss Ishizu, I have a bad feeling about this." he said.

"Its just a chant, Odion." Marik said. "No harm ever came from reading a chant. So whats it say?"

"Come forth wind and earth,

From these things give me mirth .

Hear me water and fire,

Bring me to my greatest desire."

Poof! Ishizu vanished into thin air.

Odion jumped to his feet. "Miss Ishizu!"

"Sis?" Marik squeaked.
