Myself My Foe

"Ok, so what the hell is these things his not in the position to discuss with" by each passing second, the Pharaoh's patience becoming shorter.
He remained to shut his purple eyes shut, tried to relax his mind and most of all his temper, yet it seems the relaxation part is in vain.
Finally, he felt the pilot who announced their landing confirmed the plane is landing and his guess.
"Please fasten your seatbelts for we are going to land in a few seconds."
The Pharaoh who had not removed his seatbelt of throughout the trip did not even move. Sylvester who was sitting across from him smirked, he had been observing the pharaoh throughout the trip and he did not notice something unusual except that his hair is a mixture of black, blonde and purple and most of all, he isn't the patient type.
A few seconds passed and the plane landed in front of a large mansion.
"All your questions will be answered inside, if you will just follow me"
The Pharaoh opened one eye and found the old man Sylvester telling him something. Though he had barely grasped what he said, Yami Yugi followed him.
He led him inside the huge white mansion, climbed the grand staircase and led him into a large room on the topmost floor of the mansion.
"Good Morning Sylvester… I didn't expect you and Tara came back so soon" a voice of an old man spoke. He is a man in his late seventies with a pleasant face and a kind look in his eyes yet surrounded by a mystifying aura. Sylvester bowed when he approached the two of them, he acknowledged it with a nod while he gave the Pharaoh a warm smile.
"I see, we have a guest, could you introduce yourself young man."
It was an awkward situation for the Pharaoh for he does not know how to introduce his self; to begin with, he does not even know his name. He decided to use the name Yugi called him.
"My name is Yami Yugi"
"I am Tarrasque Mufwel" Tarrasque offered his hand to shake hands with the Pharaoh. The Pharaoh awkwardly took it; Sylvester whispered something to Tarrasque, which made the Pharaoh's brow furrowed for whatever Sylvester whispered to him it seems it is related to the millennium puzzle for Tarrasque gaze fell instantly on it.
Tarrasque nodded after Sylvester told him everything, he motioned for the pharaoh to sit down. The Pharaoh, alert as always raised his guard for anything that they might do to him.
Tarrasque resumed his seat behind his large mahogany desk. He folded his hands in front of him and placed it above the table.
"I know you already know why you are here. I guess the prophecy is true, a man from the past will come to protect the heiress of Atlantis"
Yami Yugi looked at him sharply and spoke in a tone he uses only when his determine to defeat his opponent.
"You are not assuming it's me, that man from the past, are you?"
Tarrasque shook his head and looked at him seriously,
"Yes, it is you Pharaoh. The item hanging around your neck confirms it all. The dream, I know you had met Tara in your dream."
The crest on the Pharaoh's forehead deepens.
"What exactly are you implying? Can you please explain everything clearly!" his voice boomed inside the room.
Tarrasque, however, remained calm although the rising of the Pharaoh's temper is very evident.
"Thousand of years ago, before Atlantis were completely destroyed by Dartz; unbeknownst to him, his father was able to save his sister, the princess Eria. The princess was able to escape and she lived in secrecy of her identity until she was married. It was prophesied that when Atlantis would once again rise from the waters, the true heir would bear the symbol of Atlantis and the symbol would be visible when the heir would turn 18. Along with this, a man from the past bearing the millennium puzzle was destined to protect the princess against Dartz. For the princess would bring hope and peace for the people of Atlantis once again. She will lead the people and rule over them justly. Unfortunately, just last month, on Tara's 18th birthday the seal was found in her nape. We thought it is not true after so many years, yet when we saw the seal, we now believed it. Your arrival convinced me much more."
The pharaoh leaned his head and closed his eyes, absorbing what the man had just told him.
A few moments passed by before he spoke,
"How could you be so sure that Tara is really the heiress aside from the seal?"
"It was told that the heir would only come from the bloodline of the Princess Eria. Tara's mother came from the bloodline of the princess of Atlantis, which made the seal more authentic."
Finally, the pharaoh opened his eyes and looked at Tarrasque grimly.
"So what do want me to do?"
Tarrasque's face lit up thinking that the Pharaoh is cooperating yet it was replaced by a serious look once again.
"By this time, Dartz had already known about Tara and he is determined to kill her so as to fulfill his evil plans. Yami Yugi, you are the only one who could protect Tara" he looked at him solemnly.
Yami Yugi's face hardened and he stood up.
"I am sorry! I cannot protect her… I still have my own problems to fix. If you do not know, Dartz using the seal of Orichalcos locked up my friend's soul. I still have to plan how to save him" he then spun on his heel and walked towards the door. He halted on his tracks when he heard what Tarrasque said.
"Tara will be able to help you… Please Yami, please protect the Princess at all cost. If Dartz succeed to kill her and have her soul, you won't still be able to save your friend. I beg you, Tara is the only hope for us all, for Dartz to fail."
He turned around and saw the two old men on the verge of tears. Even if he is emotionless, he could feel emotions stirred up inside him seeing the two men. Analyzing the situation, both parties would benefit if he agree, so with fierce determination, he spoke.
"Yes, I will do it…" the two men's face cheered. Yami Yugi left them and walked down the hallway all by himself.
At last, I made it.
