" She's not answering her cell." Merideth said as she Yami and I run down the road. " well then how the hell are we suppose to find her? It's not like we can senesce her." I could tell that Merideth was worried even though she didn't show it. She growled and said, " we'll find her, there's got to be someway of finding her." we ran for about a block and a half until I saw that Yami had stopped. I yelled for Merideth to wait up and went to see what had bothered the pharaoh.
" Yami?" he looked at me the eye of Horus on his forehead. " I can senesce another Millennium Item." I blinked at him. " you do?" I asked, he nodded and pointed down an ally. I frowned. " do you think Krystal's down there?" Merideth looked around. " it's our best bet, come on!" and the three of us took off down the ally.
( Krystal's POV)
" I might be able to help Bakura, but how am I suppose to tell him without the other guy hearing me?" Ryou looked at me with panic stricken eyes and I knew that Bakura was in danger of getting his soul stolen. I bit my lip. Think, think, think, come on Krystal think. "Ryou can you use the mind link to tell Bakura what I say?" I asked him hurriedly. " uh yes I can." I nodded and quickly whispered to him what I needed him to tell Bakura, I wasn't sure if it would work or not and I was deeply prying it would. Hey I like the show and all, but I'm no duleist like Charnelle and Merideth.
Ryou looked at me with a raised eyebrow. " are you sure that will work?" he asked. I laughed nervously. " I think so, after all it worked when Yugi did it." he seem to gain some confidence with that statement and so we both turned our attention back to the duel. ( A/N: again I'm not good at writing duels so back to Charnelle)
( Charnelle's POV)
We ran down the ally a little more until we came to a crossroads. I swore loudly. " why is it when we try to rescue someone we always come to a damn T-junction!?" I looked at Yami the eye of Horus still on his forehead. " which way?" he studied both ways for a minute. "left." so we ran a little more that way and then when we came to a clearing…BOOM!
We were thrown backwards on our assess. I sat up coughing slightly from the dust in the air. I looked to see both Merideth and Yami knocked out on either side of me. " what the hell happened?" I got up and looked around. " this isn't the ally." I looked around with wide eyes. I was standing in the middle of a beautiful city square that was completely light blue and white all over. I looked ahead of me and nearly fainted at what I saw.
I saw me, with long beautiful black and red hair sitting near a grand white fountain looking around as if looking for something. As I stepped closer I saw that I was wearing a long slickly blue robe that seemed to flow like water when she, I, oh you know what I mean stood up. " Princess!" I turned to the sound of the voice and found myself looking at the knight version of Critius.
" How are things at the front brave knight?" I heard myself ask. " not at all well my Princess, I'm afraid that the enemy has breeched the north gate." the Princess sighed and looked at the building behind her. " how much time?" Critius lifted his sword. "not much, an hour at the most." " I see." I walked closer but then stopped and not because I wanted too, I couldn't move any closer. " Critius, I'm going to need your help." ( A/N: I know that's not how it's spelled but oh well sue me) " I will do what ever is needed of me my Princess." there was silence for a moment. "good. Because I need you to do the unthinkable." she started to glow a bright red. Critius backed away slightly. " Princess?" she turned around and I was surprised that even though her eyes were dark red almost pure black you could still see the sadness behind them. " when this is over, you must destroy me."
I blinked once and then I sat up again. I found that I was back in the ally with Merideth and Yami standing over me. " are you okay?" Merideth asked helping me to stand. " yeah I guess, what happened?" " there was an explosion caused by the seal being broken. I blinked. " but who broke it?" both Merideth and Yami turned toward the clearing of the ally. I saw Krystal trying to help Bakura wake Ryou up. I blinked again. Bakura??? I leaned toward Merideth. "What is he doing here?" she shook her head. " no idea."
We ran over to them as Ryou woke up. Krystal saw us and smiled. I shook my head smiling slightly. " it's just like you to get sucked into a portal and not tell anyone." she shrugged. " oh well, it happens." I heard Merideth snort. " we're glad your okay." I looked over at Ryou and Bakura. " do I even want to know how he got his own body?" " probably the same way Yami Marik did." said Merideth. After introductions and Krystal told us what happened were done Yami turned to Bakura with a 'I'm goanna kick your ass if you have anything to do with this look' on his face.
Bakura gave him the same 'I'm goanna kick your ass regardless' look. I stepped in between the two. " I don't think Bakura has anything to do with this Yami seeing as he was just in an Orichalcos duel." I turned to Bakura. " what are you doing here anyway? We're not suppose to see you this season." Bakura raised an eyebrow. I shook my head. " never mind. Look maybe we should all just go back home for now."
" I agree, I'm tired." said Krystal and Merideth nodded. I looked at Bakura. " I know you don't like the Pharaoh and you don't know us." I pointed to myself, Merideth and Krystal. " but I have a feeling that this is the beginning and we may need each others help. You in?" Bakura frowned. " what do I get out of it?" he asked. " not my puzzle." said Yami angrily. Bakura shrugged. " then there's no reason for me to help you, I have better things to do." I smiled at him. I had the perfect leverage. " if you help us, I can give you a sneak peak at how you plan to defeat Yami and gain his puzzle." Bakura looked at me somewhat intrigued while Yami, Krystal and Merideth looked scandalized.
Bakura looked at me coyly. " what makes you think I don't already have a plan?" I snorted. " you just got out of the shadow realm and you have no idea how you plan on getting the ring back from the pharaoh yet do you?" Bakura frowned at me and I knew I had him. " alright, but I want you to show me using the Millennium eye." I nodded and held out my hand. "deal?" he took my hand and we shook on it. " deal."
I smiled and turned back down the ally with my friends. " are you crazy? You can't show him DOTD ( dawn of the duel) it might ruin everything." I shook my head. " no it won't trust me, I already know what
I'm goanna show him anyway." Merideth shook her head. " you just became friends with the pharaoh's enemy." Krystal giggled. " I think Bakura might want to be more then friends with our Charnelle." I looked at her with a raised eyebrow. " yeah right, this is Bakura we're talking about." " yeah, but he is your favorite villain." " yeah he is, but that doesn't mean he likes me, he barely likes his hikari." no one said anything to that. " well I guess there's only one thing left to do now." said Krystal. " what's that?" asked Merideth as we came back to the street. She yawned. " sleep till we can't sleep no more!"
Yugi fidgeted, he felt his leg twitch slightly as the voice crying for help got louder in his head. He opened his eyes to find that he was inside the Millennium puzzle with Yami standing next to him. Yugi stood up and looked around searching for the voice. " so you heard it too?" he asked Yami as the two of them started down a hallway. Yami nodded. "yes, I could also feel another presence somewhere within the puzzle, but every time I think I've found it, it disappears."
" wait pharaoh, look." Yugi stopped in his tracks pointing ahead of them. Kuriboh was bouncing up and down in front of them. " Kuriboh what are you doing here?" Yugi asked. Kuri kuri was it's reply as it started bouncing away in the opposite direction. " I think he wants us to follow him." said Yami. Yugi nodded and they both started to run after the bouncy duel monster.
( Merideth's POV)
I couldn't sleep for some unknown reason, even though I tried I couldn't seem to keep my eyes closed. I keep trying to find a way to explain how the hell we got ourselves in this predicament, but sadly I come up with nothing. I can't deny what's in front of me, but I can't seem to except it either. I look at my two sleeping friends and wonder what was going to happen to them the next day, Krystal had been taken by a portal to help Bakura, but what if that happens again and it's a trap?
She's only thirteen after all, their both young. Charnelle had just turned fourteen two days ago before this mess happened.
And what is the deal with her being some reincarnated princess? It doesn't make any since at all. How can she help save the world? Mind you I have complete faith in my friend, it's just she doesn't have faith in herself half the time. I guess that's something she and Yugi and relate on, the both sell the selves short. I might be sixteen but I'm not stupid, and I do know that what ever we're suppose to here, it damn sure isn't going to be easy. I just hope they can handle it.
( Back to Yugi)
" Where do you think he's leading us?" Yugi asked panting slightly as they chased after Kuriboh. "I'm not sure Yugi." HELP! " there it is again." the ran until they saw Kuriboh disappear through a grey colored door. Yami opened the door to find the room was big filled with a soft white light seeming to come from every direction. As Yugi and Yami walked forward they cried out in surprise as they felt their feet fall beneath them.
" What's going on!?" Yugi yelled as they fell through an opened portal into what looked like an ancient city. " I'm not sure." Yami looked up and noticed a big terrifying looking black eye in the sky, it's single pupil a sickening yellow. " that thing doesn't look to friendly." Yugi said noticing it as they were pulled toward a tall bluish white building. As they entered they noticed tall crystallized statues in the center of the room. as they landed softly on the ground they heard a voice sigh with relief.
" I knew you would hear my call!" they turned to find themselves face to face with Dark Magician Girl. "tell me, why were you calling for help?" asked Yami. " pharaoh, the Dominion of the beats is in desperate need of your help. Our paradise is being threatened and as a result both of our worlds are in danger!"
Somewhere near the Atlantic Ocean…
A room covered in brown tile and bright flaming torches with pictures of souls from floor to ceiling is where three young men now walked into. At the front of the group was a big build blonde carrying in his hands a small black box his name is Raphael. On his left was a skinny red haired youth who secretly clutched a dirty toy action figure in his left pocket he goes by name of Alister. " wait till the master takes a look at what we brought him." said the young man on Raphael's right. His name is Valon and he has a Australian accent any girl would keel over just from hearing it.
They walked to front of the room where three large snake mouths could be seen, standing in front of one of the snakes is a man with long blue hair and as he turned to face the three young men kneeling before him you could see one eye was yellow and the other was green. " the pharaoh escaped did he?" he didn't wait for an answer. " no mater, I will get what need in the end." " yes master." said Raphael. " but you know me master, I never come back empty handed." he stood as he said this and presented the box to the man before him.
He took the box smiling slightly, a smile that would have sent shivers down anyone's spine had they been there to witness it. He opened the lid and pulled out a card… " Slifer The Sky Dragon. An Egyptian god cards will fuel the awaking of the great beast!"
( Back to Yugi)
" Are you telling me that if we pull the sword out it will release the dragon?" asked Yugi. DMG nodded. "and what happens if your wrong?" asked Yami. "I'm not wrong, I wasn't wrong about Charnelle being one of the chosen warriors and I'm positive I'm not wrong about you." Yami looked at Yugi. " are you ready?" he asked. Yugi nodded, they both grasped the sword and pulled…
