Note: If I owned Yu-Gi-Oh, I would probably be Japanese and I would probably be rich. (I'd probably would have a life, too - but I prefer not to go there.) Well, hate to break it to you, but I have neither of those characteristics. In other words, I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or any of its characters.

Chapter 2: Dreaming of Egypt

When I opened my eyes I was standing on a barren landscape. Rolling dunes of sand were as far as the eye could see and the air was dry on my face. A vast plain covered with sand and gravel, with a mixture of sea shells, it appeared like the basin of an evaporated sea. In the distance I could hear a soft rumble. Storms of wind, sending vast serges of red sand clouds rose and rolled forward, burying every thing in its way. Despite the distance between us, I couldn't help but stand in awe. I could not remember how I had gotten there, but it did not seem to matter. I felt like I belonged, and I had not felt that way in a long time - not since Mom died... I looked down, I was wearing a long flowing gown that reached far past my ankles - the silken fabric brushed against my legs like flowing water. My hair reached down as far as my waist and fell down the middle of my back - stirring ever so slightly with the wind. It's rich dark color was like the raven's wing. My arms were held down by the weight of four golden arm bracelets - two on each arm. They glistened in the sunlight and glowed with a radiance that was not of this world. When I looked up a very lovely woman stood before me.

"I am Ishizu," she said as she bowed. Her murky green eyes searched my own. She touched her neck and I noticed between the folds of her cloth was a golden necklace with a strange eye. It looked so familiar. She continued, "I sensed your arrival, welcome young one."

"Who am I?" I asked. Nothing seemed to make sense.

Ishizu smiled softly and said, "You are Kamilah."

I frowned slightly, "No, I'm not. That's not my name."

The woman's smile warmed, "Perhaps not at this time - but soon. You will help the world defeat a great evil."

I looked around, obviously this woman was talking to someone else, but there was no one else.

"You can't mean ME," I said. The woman nodded.

Ishizu laughed and said, "In time you will learn, and then you must help the Pharaoh save the world! The future is still clouded - I see the duel, but I do not see the victor. While I pray the Pharaoh will win, I cannot say. But I do know this to be true. I know it in my heart as the sea knows all the secrets of the earth. You will decide if evil will reign over this earth. That is your fate."

"But..." I stuttered, "I'm just a girl! You can't expect me..."

"That is your destiny," said the woman in a positive voice, "I have seen it."

The wind began to blow and Ishizu stepped back, disappearing into the blowing sand.

"Wait! What are you talking about?" I called. She did not answer, but vanished.

The darkness took me once more.
