At the moment when Yugi walked in silence from a stairs, where it was dark, so dark that you couldn't possible see anything. Yugi thought about a story what his grandpa told him long ago. It was how grandpa found the Millennium Puzzle. He thought about the spirit of the pharaoh, that he could set free, when he win the duel, what he was waiting for.
Suddenly he hears a void just beside him: "Yugi! Hurry up, or we come too late for your duel with the pharaoh.
Tea stopped walking.
"What's up Tea?" Tristan asked.
Tea answered: "I was wondering why we have rushed in this so soon? This could be the final chance to hang out with the pharaoh, before he leaves us for good."
"That's true. I was so pumped up for this duel; I forgot this could be his last one." Tristan Said.
"My friends, I know how difficult this must be, however Yugi and the pharaoh must carry out this battle ritual as quickly as possible. If too much time should pass, our window of opportunity will close." Ishizu said.
"We all Know how you're feel Tea, but this is what is best for the pharaoh, he doesn't belong in our world. Now his spirit finally has a chance to go home." Yugi said.
"You're right, let's do this!" Tea Said.
"I probably don't say this as often I should Tea, but you know, you are one of the bravest people I ever met. I know this is tough for you Tea, and I just want to say that I am proud." Joey said.
"If you dorks start to holding each other hands then I am out of here. I didn't come here to listen to your friendship speeches." Seto said full of anger.
"MAYBE IF YOU HAVE SOME FRIENDS, YOU WOULDN'T FEEL THAT WAY!" Joey screams.
"That was harsh man." Tristan said.
"Oh, like he didn't deserve it." Joey replied.
"Let's go." Yugi said.
Then they walked further down the stairs. At the end they came in a huge chamber, a place like there wasn't been someone for almost five thousand years. At the end there was a gigantic stone, the Millennium stone. When Yugi saw the it, he looked surprised, that he finally has found the resting place of the 7 Millennium items.
Ishizu walked to the plateau where the stone was on.
"Alright Yugi." Ishizu said.
Yugi walked to Ishizu, and to the plateau. Everyone that has come with Yugi, to support Yugi, was watching how Yugi walked to Ishizu. Ishizu kneeled.
"Before the ritual can begin, the Millennium items must be returned to the stone where they came. The Eye of Ujosh will then appear in your soul Yugi, and will separate the pharaoh's spirit from your own. Now, if you accept these terms of the ritual, I ask or you will place the 7 Millennium items within the Millennium stone." Ishizu said.
Yugi walked up the small stairs from the plateau, and to the stone. He kneeled for the stone. He opened the bag he has wearing, and took the Millennium Items out of the bag, and placed them into the stone. First the Millennium Eye. Followed by 5 other Items. At least the Millennium Puzzle.
While he took the last Item, he thought at the first moment he completed the puzzle.
"Please, grand my wish and my wish did come through, the day I met my friends." Yugi thought.
Yugi looked behind, to all of his friends, standing there, waiting for the moment that Yugi will place the Puzzle into the stone, waiting for what to come. Then he looked back to the puzzle, and moved slowly to the place in the stone where the puzzle must be, and placed it. At the moment he placed the puzzle, it start to glow. The eye of Ujosh starts to glow as well.
"The eye is searching deep within for the spirit who is in Yugi's mind. Ones there're separated, the ultimate duel can begin." Ishizu said.
When Yugi was standing there, for the stone, another shadow was born. A light flash was followed. Yugi was split up. Now 2 Yugi's are standing there, one bigger and older than the other.
"Hey, I seeing double." Joey said nervous.
"No, it's the pharaoh, Atem." Grandpa said.
"No way!" Mokuba said.
The two Yugi's looked to each other, turn around and walked away. When they have walked for a couple of seconds, they stopped walking. Turn around again.
"This is the first time in my life that I hope for my opponent's victory, nut in order to truly test our ready to separate, I must fight with all my strength." Atem thought.
"Pharaoh, now you have left the Millennium puzzle, I can't hear your thoughts anymore, but still how know what you're thinking. And I'm feel the same way. If you thought me anything, it is to put your heart into your deck, and duel with everything you've got. And that's exact what I'm going to do." Yugi thought.
"I guess we go to find out who the true King of Games is." Seto said.
"Here we go." Joey said.
"Are you ready for this?" Atem asked to Yugi.
"That's we're here to find out! Right?" Yugi answered
"LET'S DUEL!" Both of Atem and Yugi said.
