Chapter 28
Marik Revealed
Sapphira's P.O.V.
There's a lot that I need to explain to Yugi. First, his duel against the evil spirit ended with the Pharaoh as the victor. Despite Marik trying to make him lose. Then Shadi told Yugi how Pegasus created the Egyptian God cards while I was in the room. Then he said that all seven Millennium Items were on the airship making him confused about it. I told him that my Item is the lost Millennium Item because there's barely any information on it.
Now, Joey has finished his duel against Odion because Marik made him use a fake god card of Ra. The result has made Odion fall unconscious, with Marik trying to fight his dark side for control. I won't let him fight this alone! He's my cousin and I won't let his dark side take him away from me! He's like the brother I never head! He's too important to me to let this happen!
I'll have to use the power of the Millennium Pendant, along with the markings on my right hand, but I don't care! I'm willing to risk revealing Zahara if it means that I can save my cousin! I won't let this happen to him! I refuse to allow it!
Yami's P.O.V.
As the man Joey dueled revealed who Marik was, I saw Sapphira came closer to him, looking worried but with a hidden determination in her eyes that was shinning brightly. Marik looked at us with a sneer, which only worried her more. " Yes, my name is Marik." Tea and Tristan looked at him surprised. " You mean, that Namu is really Marik?" He scoffed at that which made Sapphira even more worried. " Namu was just a way for me to get closer to Yugi."
Then Marik grabbed his head in pain. Sapphira noticed and ran came up to him with a look of fear and desperation on her face." Marik, you have to hold him back! Don't let him take over! You promised me that you would keep him suppressed! You kept him back before, you can do it again!" I looked at Sapphira confused, along with Yugi in spirit form. Sapphira knew Marik?
Marik looked at Sapphira with a pained look on his face. " I'm trying Phira, but he's gotten stronger since the last time! I can't stop him form taking over! Get back before you get hurt! Besides, it was only thanks to you and Odion that I was able to keep him back last time! I can't hold him back this time! Get back before he hurts you!" Sapphira shook her head stubbornly as everyone saw her Millennium Pendant glow with a brilliant light.
" No Marik! I'm not giving up on you! I'm not letting you fight him alone! I won't lose you to him! You would do the same if it was me!" Sapphira's eyes turned bright green and put her right hand on Marik's left shoulder and markings starting to glow from underneath the glove that were in Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Marik seemed to realize what she was doing and used the last of his strength to push him away as he was surrounded by a green and golden light. He looked at her with a sorrowful look in his eyes.
" I'm sorry Phira, but I can't hold him back any longer! I can't let him hurt you because I care about you too much to let you get hurt because of me! Thanks for all that you've sacrificed to make sure that he stayed suppressed and for trying to protect me from him. I owe both you and Odion for that, and once this is over I'll try to make it up to you, Phira. Count on it." He smiled at the last part. Then with a scream from Marik, we noticed some changes in him as I picked Sapphira up and held her close.
His hair stood up and eyes became smaller as the Eye of Horus appeared on his forehead. He smirked and laughed manically before he spoke. " At last I'm free from that fool Odion and Sapphira's imprisonment. It's too bad for you Sapphira that you couldn't save him before I gained complete control of his body. He is family after all. You even risked revealing the spirit in order to save him. It's too bad that you couldn't keep your promise to protect him from me." He started laughing as she glared at him with nothing but hatred.
" I will save him from you! It might not be me that does, but he will be saved! That is a promise!" He laughed manically before he replied. " Faith can only get you so far, Phira" Sapphira looked like she was about to explode from him calling her Phira. He noticed this and mocked her for it.
" Oh, that's right. That was Marik's childhood nickname for you, right? It's too bad that you won't hear it from him anymore. The Marik that you knew is long gone." After that, he left with her looking close to tears. Who exactly was he? And what exactly is Sapphira's relationship with Marik?
