88 Last Time 88
Jabari watched him walk out of the crowded room. The thief was obviously not going to be in a good mood for a long time. What worried him though was that priestess. Bakura had seemed to like her, and now there was no way of telling if she was even dead. As sad and painful as it may be, she probably was.
88 This Time 88
The commander threw Rei roughly onto the hot desert sands. She just propped herself up and glared at the sand before turning it to him. The premonition she just had, had been the same as the last. The Pharaoh's men were coming, and going to stop them. However the soldiers still didn't believe it.
"You think you can scare us woman?" he cried, kicking her in her side. Rei flinched and held her stomach. "Stop with the lies and tell us what you really saw."
"I'm telling you, that's what I saw. If you don't believe me then just wait and see." she said in a low hiss.
The commander bent down and yanked her up by her hair. "Listen here woman. We ain't fool enough to fall for your tricks. You're just trying to scare us into thinking we're all done for. So we can let you and your people go." with that he snapped his fingers. A soldier came out with a 6 year old girl. Her dirt covered face looked scared. Rei's eyes widened as the soldier held a dagger to the girl's throat.
"Now..tell us the truth. Or we'll cut this girl wide open." the commander whispered in her ear.
Rei nodded as tears ran down her face. "Alright..I'll tell you...I saw a place, it looked like it was some sort of hut or something. There was mountains of gold and jewels in it. But there are people guarding it. Tribes people. I didn't want you to kill them. That's why I didn't tell you." it was a lie, but they didn't need to know that. She just told them what they wanted to hear.
The commander smiled and threw her back to her hands and knees. He then walked away from her, and looked at the soldier. "Kill the girl." Rei's eyes widened.
"No!" she cried and stood up.
Just as the soldier was about to slit the girls throat he burst into flames. The dagger dropped from his hands and he released her. Screaming in agony and pain he ran around trying to pat the flames off of him. The little girl ran over to Rei who picked her up and held her close. She covered her eyes as the man fell to the ground dead, his body still burning. All the soldiers watched in horror. What happened to the binding spell the shaman had placed on her?
The commander glared at the girl and made his way to her. Rei set the child down and stood in front of her protectively. She didn't know how she broke the spell either, but she did, and now they were going to pay. But when she tried to set the commander on fire nothing happened. Instead he marched right up to her and punched her to the ground. The little girl screamed and kneeled next to Rei.
"You will pay for burning one of my men witch!" he snapped, and was about to stab her with his sword.
However a voice stopped him, "Commander Dyshid, what is going on?" the commander froze. Rei looked behind him to see a group of men she had never seen before. The one in front had tri-colored hair and wore golden armor. He looked like a God.
It didn't take long for him to spot her, and quickly he rushed over. A man with spiked up black hair followed him, sword at the ready. The God like man kneeled next to her and rubbed the blood of her mouth. Rei didn't know what to do. Who was this man? Why was he helping her? The man then stood up and helped her up as well.
"Pharaoh Atem what are you doing? This woman is a witch! She must be destroyed!" the commander shouted. The spiky haired man stood in front of them protectively. Rei looked at the man who helped support her in shock. This was the pharaoh?
"You act like she isn't human Dyshid. Well she is. I know a number of people who have certain powers and they are no different from you and I." he snapped. Then, still supporting her he walked back over to his group of soldiers. "Your expedition ends here. You and your men are to come back with us."
Dyshid wouldn't hear of this. Without warning he knocked over the violet eyed boy and charged at the two. Rei quickly got out of Atem's grasp and stood in front of him. With all her might she called upon her powers. In no time a huge ball of fire had formed in front of her. She shot it at him which pushed him back. Her knees gave out and she collapsed.
Dyshids soldiers drew their swords and began to charge. Atem looked back at his men. "Stop them. Leave them alive if you can, but kill them if necessary!" he commanded. The soldiers nodded and drew their own swords. "Tenshi! Come with me!" he called out.
The spiky haired boy returned. "What is it Atem?" he asked.
"See if you can find anymore prisoners and free them." Tenshi nodded.
The little girl stepped forward. "I'll show you where they are." she said, then took his hand and led him away. Atem kneeled next to Rei who was gasping for air. The binding spell was still on her, and calling out that much power in such a short time had hurt badly. "Can you stand?" Atem asked.
"N-no..." she gasped. He nodded and picked her up bridal style. After some effort he managed to mount her onto his horse. It wasn't long before the battle ended. Tenshi brought over the people who were being held captive and his soldiers brought over the few men that had survived. A smile etched onto Rei's face when she realized Dyshid was not one of them.
Finally they were free of his reign. No longer would the lives of the people of her village be threatened. It almost made her want to cry, but she didn't. She wasn't going to cry in front of the others. Another thing was, the shaman was dead to. Now the spell really was off of her.
Atem soon mounted up behind her and grabbed the reigns. "Let the people ride with you. Especially the young, sick, and elderly. Dyshid's soldiers can walk back to the palace!" he called out. His men grinned and tied the other soldiers to the saddles . They then helped mount the people onto their horses. Tenshi rod up beside them with the little girl in front and a boy behind him.
"Look I made new friends!" he said happily.
Atem shook his head at the boy. "You never cease to amaze me Tenshi. Come on, lets get back home. As soon as everything is sorted out you can go to see your sister." Tenshi nodded.
After a days ride they reached the palace. The soldiers were taken to the prison below the palace, while the villagers were given fresh clothes, food and rooms with the servants for now. Rei told them of their village and how the commander had destroyed it and killed half of the people there. He had been after treasure and other things like it, as well as his men. He even killed his own soldiers that had disagreed with his methods.
Rei was to share Setsuna's room. Atem even was willing to give her a job at the palace if she agreed. The fiery maiden was going to think on that. She didn't know if she wanted to leave her people. Setsuna was very kind and showed her where she could keep her things. She felt sorry for her, since she could move her legs. But Setsuna just brushed it off like it was nothing and began to take her measurements for more outfits.
A knock soon came to the door. "Hello, can I come in?" came Tenshi's voice.
"Come on it Tenshi." Setsuna said writing down a few numbers. The violet eyed boy entered followed by the girl who was on his back and the boy who clung to his leg. Setsuna laughed at the sight of them. "I see you have a few lumps on you."
"Yeah, they won't leave me alone. But it's ok, I enjoy playing with them." he said trudging more into the room. "Well I'm leaving in a few hours just though I'd say good bye."
"Where are you going?" asked Rei, still not so sure she could trust this guy.
"To visit my sister. I've been having some weird dreams lately where I keep hearing her crying." he explained and dumped the two children onto the bed. They just laughed and jumped on it.
Once he had said that though Rei got a bad feeling. An image passed before hr eyes. "Does your sister have violet eyes like you and shoulder length hair?" both Setsuna and Tenshi looked at her in surprise.
"Um yes,...how did you know that?" Tenshi asked.
Rei looked at him sadly. "Cause I just saw a vision of her...she was in some sort of dungeon with a group of other women." Tenshi stared at her wide eyed then rushed out of the room. He had to find his sister and fast. Something had happened to her, and now he was going to find out what.
