"We have to go back for Jaden!" Rizu protested. "I'm sorry Rizu we can't! It is too late for him. Now just put on your helmet." She reluctantly put on her helmet and her matching pilot goggles. Rizu had been prepared for this moment for awhile; in the side compartment of the duel runner they had some food and clothes for Rizu. At the first chance she had she changed into a pair of camo pants and a long sleeve purple shirt.
Yusei knew they couldn't go to Alexandria "why Jaden did you have to be so thick headed at such a bad time…?" Yusei thought to himself. But, after bouncing around from place to place, and small houses to motels, to just plain out camped out near the forest. Yusei finally realized they had to go there, it was the only place where they could actually have a home and the pharaoh was a reasonable guy, but in his heart he had a bad feeling.
They got to Alexandria a few weeks after Marik's second appearance. The pharaoh Atem granted them a small guest house; it was full of beautiful furniture, vases, and hieroglyph paintings on the wall.
"Wow." Rizu said slinging her back pack onto the king sized bed. "This place is amazing! Now that were here let's go see the pyramids! Ooo or maybe we should go down to the river back and look at the hip-" "No." Yusei said sternly cutting her off. He went around shutting the curtains to the glassless windows. "We aren't here on vacation. Marik knows we are here somewhere, and we must take every precaution that we won't be found."
"Aww…" Rizu whimpered "Watch some TV or something." Yusei suggested. "This is Egypt. They don't have TV! It's not fair!" "There is a Mad Man out there who wants you! And he'll do anything to get you!" Yusei snapped at her. "This is going to be very unfair! But hey, Life's never fair! So just deal with it!" Rizu's eyes started to pool with tears. Yusei looked at her and then hit his head against the door frame and sighed. "Look I'm sorry, Rizu. I didn't mean to snap at you like that." And he turned back to her "it's just that I'm under pressure and I don't know what I would do if I lost you." Then Yusei sighed again, grabbed a small back pack and went to the market.
Rizu found a mangalla set and fiddled with that for a while then took a nap on the bed, which she was glad about since it was a real bed, not the ground. Yusei came back later with some bread, fruit, and goats milk which Rizu was not happy to try, and to be nice bought her gold bracelet that had the initials Y & R. Yusei decided to wait to give it to her.
A little after an interesting tasting dinner there was a knock on the door. Yusei got it and Rizu hung around the corner trying to stay out of sight. Yusei opened the door slightly and there stood a boy.
"Hello, yes, I'm selling rings so my family can afford food for next week. They are only 1dinar." "OMG rings really I want to see!" and Rizu sprang out of nowhere and stood behind Yusei. Yusei sighed and rolled his eyes. "So which one would you like Rizu?" Yusei said muttering under his breath. She picked a little gold band. Yusei paid the boy and practically slammed the door.
"Okay, don't do anything that bone headed ever again! He could have been a person of Marik's, Rizu!" "Oh Yusei, it was just a little boy." "Just remember we are only like a desert away from, possibly Marik's pyramid, house, or something!" "I'm pretty sure it's more like five deserts, he seemed so self centered, like he probably lives in Upper Egypt." Rizu replied. But, Yusei's cautiousness and assumptions were right. Just on the other side of Alexandria Marik stood with a locator hooked up to the rings the boy sold. And he sent his rare hunters, a band of ruthless villains who did everything he told them to do especially find things, with a sketch he'd drawn of her.
