Taking a deep breath, she continued, "Moka, I need a favour…."
On with the story
After arriving at Kaiba-Land, everyone split into different directions: the duelists to get registered, Kaiba and Kisara to the tower and the guests to check into their rooms. Having noticed that Mana and Mokubah weren't present each group thought that they were with another group. It never occurred to them that the two were up to something.

Meanwhile, Mokubah, Mana and Roland were at a smaller, almost forgotten heli-pad. After giving him a big hug, Mana got into the whirring helicopter.
"Please take her to the airport, Roland, and help her get onto the right plane for Egypt. After the plane has left, come back here and give me a missed call. Also, please don't say a word about this to anyone."
"Yes, sir." Roland acknowledged and lift off, heading to the airport.
Waving good-bye until they were gone, Mokubah turned around and walked back to join the others.

Having carefully rejoined the group, Mokubah wondered what he was going to do to keep anyone from noticing Mana's absence, but luckily for him, Zigfriend Schouder came to his 'rescue'
A.N. THE TOUNAMENT WILL PROCEED AS THE CANON

Having safely arrived in Egypt, the young magician quietly left the city behind her and went to the Pharaoh's tomb.
Casting an invisibility spell, she sneaked in, and silently walked down the halls towards the main chamber, which was dedicated to the Pharaoh.
After entering the main chamber, Mana glanced around a bit, before uttering a spell that will cause all illusions to drop.
The last syllable barely left her mouth before all the illusions dropped, causing a narrow doorway to appear.
Heading down the hall, the girl arrived in another chamber, which was about half the size of the main chamber. And there, in the center of the chamber, stood Mana's tablet, the tablet.
Walking up to the tablet, Mana looked straight at it and said: "I am the daughter of the gods. Heed my command and take me back- back to where it all began."

Having felt a powerful pulse, Marik looked up.
"Ishizu, did you feel that?" He asked his sister.
"Yes, I did. Someone has entered the Pharaoh's tomb and uttered a very powerful spell."
"What if it's Bakura?" Marik asked, "We all know what he's capable of!"
"Then we better go and investigate." Odion suggested.
Having thoroughly searched the rest of the tomb, and turning up empty-handed, the trio headed to the main chamber.
Upon entering it, Marik said, "Either I am delusional or something, but I could have sworn that that exit over there wasn't here before."
"You are not delusional, brother, we see it too. A powerful spell must have conceiled this exit and an equally powerful spellcaster must have undone the spell." Ishizu said.
Cautiously entering the "new" chamber, the three of them stared around in awe of the beautiful room. The whole chamber was covered with pictures and hieroglyphics, telling stories of the Scorned Lady. No lighting was needed, because the tablet in the middle of the chamber, which once kept the awful snake as well as the beautiful woman captive, gave off its own light.
"This is magnificent." Marik whispered, still in awe.
Walking deeper into the chamber, something caught his eye.
"What on-?" Gasping, he called Ishizu and Odion over. "Guys, get over here! There's an unconscious woman over here!"

(A.N. Yami has just won the dueling tounament which was held in Kaiba Land)
That evening, as everyone lounged in their hotel room, the phone rang. Teá, being the closest to it, answered it.
"Oh, hi, Ishizu, how are you?" she asked cheerfully.
After a few minutes of idle chatting, she motioned Yugi to come to the phone.
"Ishizu wants to talk to the Pharaoh, she says it's urgent." She whispered to Yugi.
Quickly swapping with Yugi, Yami answered the phone.
"Greetings, my Pharaoh. I apologize for disrupting your rest, but my brothers and I thought it be best to call you as soon as the tournament was over."
"Did something happen, Ishizu?" Yami asked as dread started to fill his heart.
"I am afraid so." Ishizu answered. "This morning, we felt an intruder cast a powerful spell. When we did our rounds in the tomb to find the intruder, we came upon an entrance that has never been there before. We also found an unconscious woman in the chamber. Upon further inspection, we found that the walls were telling us an unknown story of the girl. We would not have called you, but when we had the girl in better lighting, we realized that, except for her colour of her hair and her skin-tone, she could pass as Dark Magician Girl."
Wide-eyed, a single word left Yami's lips: "Mana!"

Slowly opening her eyes, Mana sat up. After waiting for a while to let her eyes adjust to the brightness of the sun, she looked around.
"It worked. I'm back in the past." she whispered.
