Chapter Eleven – Running

The house was gone debris from the house lay all around the spot where it had one stood. Amongst the debris lay eight bodies, all but two were moving. The shadow creature kept their distance; they were waiting for their master who was coming. They waited for his commands and that the moment the command was to wait. But the creatures could not help the feeling of wanting to attack, but master's wishes was to wait and wait they would.

Out of the eight figures on the ground, now all but one was moving. Most of them had been had minor injuries, which consisted of cuts and grazes, but two were a little more injured. The one who had already been injured, before the explosion, now found himself trapped with a large piece of debris on top of his injured leg which prevent movement. He had also hit his head hard on something as the left side of his face was now covered in blood. Apart from that he was conscious, alert, maybe slightly dazed, and more concerned with the others' conditions then his own. He was anxious to see if they were alright, even though he was stuck on the ground.

The other person, who was badly injured as well, was lying a few paces away from the other badly injured person. Unlike the other, he was not alert. He was barely conscious, one arm was in a bad shape and he too had blood running down is face. Luckily, he was not trapped under debris but still was not alert. He could not hear his closest friend call out to him. He just lay there slowly losing consciousness.

Marik sat up rubbing his head, he wasn't badly hurt, he was a little shaken but that was from the hard impact to the ground. Looking around, Joey and Tristan lay close to him both were stirring as they came round. Odion was also sitting up with Ishizu and Tea next to him, a short distance way. But the Pharaoh and Yugi were not up or, from Marik could see, moving. Marik climbed to his feet and rushed over to Ishizu she was also coming round and seemed fine. He was too busy checking his sister to notice what Odion had seen.

"Marik look!" Odion said, shock in his voice.

Marik stood and followed Odion's gaze. Even though Yugi and Atem were a fair distance away, they could still tell the difference between them. He found what Odion was pointing at, it was the Pharaoh stuck under a large piece of rubble. Together they rushed over to him, relieved when they found him conscious.

"Pharaoh!" Marik called, "Are you alright? Don't worry we'll get this off you."

Atem made no response but he kept his eyes on Marik. Marik and Odion positioned themselves in the best position to lift the debris off the Pharaoh. Marik looked down at the Pharaoh, feeling his gaze upon him; those amethyst eyes didn't hold fear in them. They contained slight pain but mostly concern. Slowly, they lifted the debris; it was heavy and took a while to manage to get it off. But they succeeded and both men instantly went on either side of the Pharaoh.

Atem had closed his eyes as the debris trapping him was lifted off, but now he slowly opened them whilst he breathed deeply.

"Are you alright Pharaoh?" Odion asked.

The Pharaoh nodded and extended his hands to both men to help him to his feet. Both Marik and Odion gripped the Pharaoh's hands and then used their other hands to support the Pharaoh's back as they helped him rise to his feet. Atem hopped slightly reluctant to place his injured leg to the ground under he was on his feet. Delicately, he placed his injured leg to the ground. As he could put some pressure on it, he confirmed that it was not broken just had a large, deep cut to it.

"Is everyone alright?" He asked, quickly.

"Yes, mostly everyone is a bit shaken." Marik replied.

Atem nodded, "I know that Yugi isn't. I don't think he's conscious but I can take care of him."

"But Pharaoh, please, we can help both of you –"Odion started.

"No, we have to split up." Atem interrupted.

He went on to explain his plan to them, they protested trying to convince him that he needed help due to his injuries. The Pharaoh shook his head and reluctantly they agreed to the plan and both ran back to the place where they had woken. Atem wobbled when Marik had let go of him but managed to stay on his feet. He turned to face Yugi, whose eyes were half closed; worry filled him as Yugi still did not respond to his call. He was about to call to Yugi again but a laugh stopped him. A sinister laugh, Atem turned to face the owner of the laugh. Without really thinking about doing it, Atem took out the Millennium Rod from had been hanging. Amazingly, all three of the Millennium Items had survived the fall and stayed with Atem.

Bakura took in the scene around him, a smirk revealed itself. He loved watching people suffering. But he turned his attention to the Pharaoh who was facing him.

"Well well, nice to see you again." He said, sarcastically, "I must say, Pharaoh, you look very good when you're injured. You should stay like that."

"I know you want revenge Bakura but why destroy things with your shadow creatures."

"I am dominating Pharaoh. I will rule this world and you can't stop me. I know you have being doing something to my shadow creatures and it will never work."

"That remains to be seen,"

Bakura laughed once again, the Pharaoh didn't know when to surrender. He smirked again, regarding the Pharaoh one last time before he sent his shadows creatures to get rid of the Pharaoh and his friends for good. But as his creatures closed in on the Pharaoh and his friends there was a blinding golden light which stopped the shadow creatures in their tracks, the light was too blinding they could not see their targets. Even Bakura had to cover his eyes because light was so blinding. But eventually the light dispersed the eight people were gone. All of them. Vanished. Bakura let out a scream of frustration.

"Find them! Find the Pharaoh, bring him to me." He screamed.
