Chapter 6

Zahara Awakens

Sapphira's P.O.V.

One Year Later...

I walked down to the road that I knew led to my parent's house with a smile on my face. Today was my birthday and I knew that today was going to be exciting. My parents told me that they had a surprise for me and I can't wait to see what it is.

The day that I met Seto was the best day of my life and helped my life to get brighter. He took me to a martial arts school so that I could learn how to fight and defend myself. I ended up graduating in a year from all forms of martial arts because of how much of a quick study I was, and for that I was grateful for. Now I can defend myself without any difficulties and I can even show up anyone who tries to mess with me.

Unfortunely, the side effect of taking those classes is that I seemed to get a temper when someone tried making moves on me or attempting to flirt with me. My parents, Marik, Ishizu and Odion didn't find anything wrong with it. In fact, they mentioned that it's a good thing that I know how to defend myself in case I get into trouble. Which, unfortunely, seems to be a lot.

My blonde hair with golden highlights was still short and reached my shoulders and my bright blue eyes looked at the path ahead with excitement. I wore a light blue tube top with a teal jacket and matching fingerless gloves. I had a light green skirt that reached slightly past my kness with a brown belt above the skirt with a place to hold my dueling deck and light brown laced boots.

Once I reached the house I opened the door and found my parents in the living room with a box on the table. I walked over to them and sat on one of the chairs. I looked over at my parents who were looking at me with love.

"Hey Mom," I began. " I'm sorry that I'm late. I got delayed by looking at some new cards at some new card shop that I found."

My Mom seemed to smile at that. Ever since I started Duel Monsters, I seemed to always be looking at some shop in hopes that they have some new cards for the game. My parents were used to this, so they weren't that surprised.

"It's alright Angel," My Mom answered with a smile on her face. "We just finished wrapping your gift. We thought that you would be surprised at what we found."

I took the box that was on the table and opened it. What I saw there, however, gave me quite a shock of what I saw in there.

It was a golden heart with the Millennium symbol in the center connected wtih a brown rope to hang around someone's neck if they chose to. I looked at what I know knew as a Milliennium Item and I could feel the power radiating within the item. I looked at my parents and they nodded.

"Sapphira," My mother began. "We found that within the tomb of the Wife of the Nameless Pharaoh who was known as Zahara. The inscripitions within the tomb called that item "The Millennium Pendant," but it didn't say much else about it I'm afraid. The other researchers have called it "The Lost Millennium Item" because of how little we know about it. Something tells me that it belongs in your hands the most. Just remember not to use it for any evil intentions. Otherwise, I fear that something terrible might happen."

I nodded as I took the Millennium Item and kept it on the table as we started eating the cake and getting my presents opened before I went upstairs to my room for the night with the Millennium Pendant. I sat on the bed and looked at it in confusion of what it could mean. I know how powerful the Millennium Items can be from my personal experience of watching the power that came from The Millennium Rod. So I decided to risk it and put the Millennium Pendant around my neck. Almost immediately, it began to shine with a bright golden light and my world turned black.

Zahara's P.O.V.

I woke up within a room full of sand within an endless maze. I didn't know where I was or who I was, except for my name. However, I knew one thing for certain. The only that I could've awoken is if the chosen one has put on the Millennium Pendant at last.

I stood up and looked at an ancient mirror that was closeby to see myself within.

I had long blonde hair with golden highlights that went down to my waist and bright green eyes. I wore royal dress with dark blue outlining. I had golden armbands on each arm and simple shoes. I noticed that the Millennium Pendant was around my neck and I sighed as I watched my form to match my host.

My hair went down to my shoulders and my eyes stayed the same. My dress was replaced with a light blue tube top with a teal jacket and matching gloves. Then came a light green skirt with a brown belt above the skirt that looked to be used to hold something inside of it and my shoes were replaced by light brown laced boots. Lastly, the Millennium Pendant was around my neck.

I smiled at my appearance. I actually looked pretty nice and I think that I'll get used to the look. Now, I think that it's time that my host and I finally meet. After all, I'm going to be in her body for a while, so we should at least get to know one another for the time that I'll be here.
