Chapter 4

Darkness that was all Dawn could see and her ears, the girl couldn't hear anything it was like she was both blind and deaf. She knew that wasn't the case, Dawn knew that she was in a hospital room because her body finally collapsed after the damage she cause. So why was still here in the darkness, couldn't the sweet taste of death reach her, it be easier if she was gone. Dawn wouldn't have to worry about anything, Atem, nothing but nothing was coming she was staying alive. Thankfully she could hear herself talk in this darkness, "Please let me go I don't want to be hear anymore. Nothing good will come so just let me die."

Dawn waited for a response and after what seemed like hours, a light appeared and it got closer to her until it took on a human form. A light still radiantly from the person, "I can't do that child because then you'll never know the truth about yourself and about Atem." Dawn wasn't scared of the figure the word that left those lips were warm and gentle, "The truth? What are your talking about?" The person spoke again, "It seems that after Atem left memories were unlocked. These memories that I will show you and Atem both will answer the question you been asking yourself all along and why these memories are resurfacing now"

She was about to question him when the room around began to change, she still had her appearance but her body was a spirit, a ghost like figure. The voice was heard again, "Your a ghost type figure because you need to watch these memories without having anyone noticed you or hear you. I will talk with you again once the memories are done." Then Dawn heard the voice no more, and watch the unlocked memories. The room changed to Egypt and the memories started to play on its own. Dawn watch as she saw a person exactly like her met Atem for the first time. With each different memory the room would change and now Dawn was in the throne room, the women had the same name as her and apparently this women was the Queen of Egypt.

Atem was also watching these memories unfold in his mind, he now understood what the voice meant. These memories are apart of his past and they started to fill in the blanks. He thought his remembered everything but these memories showed him, that no he didn't. As they kept going it was now the final battle between him and Zorc. The girl who look like Dawn was there and the Pharaoh just turned to her. He could hear himself say, "I'm going have to fight him alone you can't come with me my love for if you do you will suffer and I can't let that happen." Atem saw himself touch the Millennium Puzzle and whispered words then he looked back to Dawn. Atem saw those sadden eyes and saw a tear go down his cheek.

"Dawn my love once I leave you won't remember anything after this. I'm only doing this to protect you, I don't want in the future to know that you were a Queen Of Egypt. If they did you would have trouble every day and I can't have that you mean to much to me. I also will forget you and forget who I ever was but just know if we met again deep down in my heart I will know it your my love. I will fall in love with you again and you with me. These memories I seal will only come to surface if something happens." Then Atem watch himself walk over and then everything went dark again. The voice that he heard came back, "You realized what you saw my Pharaoh correct."

Atem couldn't hold back the tears that rolled down his face, he was happy of what he thought all along was true. The girl he saw in those memories was Dawn, not of some girl who look like her and he couldn't be any more happier. "Yes I did she is my wife, someone who I fell in love with again just like I said I would. Tell me how did the memories get unsealed" he heard the voice chuckled, "It was when you went into the after life Pharaoh. The moment those doors closed the memories that you sealed away with your power unlocked because you weren't they anymore." Atem smiled, "Thank you."

Dawn on the other hand was shocked she couldn't believe that after all this time, Atem was just so person she fell in love with but her husband from 5,000 years ago. The voice was heard, "I'm known as the sun god of Egypt I'm Ra. Dawn my child now you know the truth about who you are. You were the Queen of Egypt and you my Queen have special powers that can only be used once." "Why do I have to use them only once" Dawn asked? "Because your required to make the toughest choice of your life, go with Atem to the afterlife or bring the Pharaoh back into the living with his own body."

Dawn could either go with him or bring him back, that was a tough choice but she honestly she didn't need to think that hard, "I want him back in the living with me." Ra smiled, "You made your choice my Queen now wake from your sleep" and the moment Ra said this is when Dawn woke up in the hospital room. She looked around for a moment and the doctors who took care of her saw she was awake. They were glad but all Dawn could think about was now Atem was going to come back to her and she can finally tell him how she felt.

Atem was also woke up, and looked around. His friends and family were around because they were worried for him but he reassured them he was okay. He started to glow however and smiled, "Well Ra told me that she was giving a choice and I guess she made her choice. I will miss you all but a life without Dawn is not worth having" then in a matter of minutes Atem was gone. The man looked around, he was still in his Pharaoh attired and he walked around a bit until he walked outside of the tomb he was in and smiled. He saw pyramids in the background but turned around to see the modern version of his palace and town, "Cairo. I'm back in Egypt"

Atem then walked over toward a building so he could use a phone, he knew who exactly to call. 'Don't worry Dawn I'll be there soon.'
