Chapter 34
Touzoku wasn't in my room when I got back, and I frantically searched the palace. No where. Nothing.
I stopped a servant.
"Have you seen Tou- Bakura?" I asked, and he gave me a look.
"Touzoku? The King Thief? He was locked in the dungeon Amenankhans." I sighed. Of course he would get caught.
"Thank you." I nodded, and walked off towards the dungeon. And sure enough, he was chained to the floor.
"Princess." He smiled, and I rolled my eyes.
"What did you do to get yourself down here?"
"I didn't do anything this time." He laughed, but shrugged, continuing.
"I was caught in your room, and although I have a few royal hits on me, they stuffed me in here. Either way, I'm a thief...And being in your room made it worse." He shrugged, and I frowned.
"I'm sorry...Here, let me help you..." I walked to the chains, and touched them, watching them melt off his wrists and ankles.
"You'll get in trouble too." He said, a smile on his lips.
"Yeah, well, it will all end soon. So I don't see a problem." I shrugged, and he stood up, rubbing his wrists.
"We should get going, this time, walk with me. You'll be fine." I reassured. He nodded, walking next to me down the halls. We got weird looks, but no one stopped us or said anything to us directly.
"I attract a lot of attention around you Winter Sun." He remarked, and I shrugged.
"They'll talk if they're going to talk. I learned that a long time ago, being born from my parents."
He didn't say anything, and sat down on my couch.
"I wish they had T.V here..."
"They have T.V in the spirit realm..."
"I can't go there, remember?"
"I know...I still need to solve that..." I pondered on what to do, sitting on my bed and closing my eyes.
"I now what you did with Yami..."He mumbled, and my eyes snapped open, wide with shock.
"And he knows what you did with me." I pointed out, and he sighed.
"Dessert Flower, it doesn't mean I'm not jealous. Ryo especially...He's never even got to second base..." Touzoku smiled in a way I didn't like, and guilt poured over me.
"He must hate me..." I looked down, my hands gripping part of my robe.
"Eh? Egyptian Queen, I don't think he'd hate you...Us, maybe, but you? No. He loves you more then anything. He just came to me for advice, and I told him to stick with what he was doing, you need that from someone, and when we're...Us, he can be your rock to fall back on."
I looked up to Touzoku with a look of confusion and anger.
"Thank you...but you should have left that for us to talk about..." I sighed and went back to meditating, leaving Touzoku in silence.
I woke up when warmth and light tickled my face. I sat up, rubbing my eyes and looking for Touzoku, who was fast asleep on the couch. I sighed...At least he had respected my wishes for quiet when I tried to find a solution...Did I have enough power to separate them? I wasn't sure, and I had to wait to find out...
And then another thought dawned on me...
Why had the Pharaoh not called me?
I quickly sat up, a little too quick, and ended up falling on the floor. Waking up Touzoku, who walked over to me.
"Are you alright, Princess?"
"Yes, I'm fine...Just...Stay here...I'll be back." I hurried off and he shook his head.
I scrambled to the Pharaoh's throne room in a semi-orderly fashion.
"Pharaoh?" I asked, opening the door to find him and Mana talking. When I appeared before them, Mana gave me a weary smile and a half wave.
"Amenankhans...Yes?" The Pharaoh asked, turning his attention to me.
"You haven't called for me..."
"Mana has taken your place while you were out doing you Oracle business..." I almost yelled at him, but help back.
"I see..."
"We are in grave danger...Zorc is coming to attack this village...He found out of my return. We my need you Amenankhans." He explained, looking far off.
"Of course...My Pharaoh." I bowed my head and left. I ran back to my room, finding Touzoku still there, smiling as I entered the room.
"Princess-"
"Sit." I commanded, and he gave me a funny look, but sat on the floor.
I took the ring, and looked to Touzoku.
"I have to separate all of you from Ryo's body...Zorc is coming, and I need to do this before, Yami knows how to stop him..."
"Of course...Go ahead." He nodded, and I put both hands on the millennium ring and summoning their spirits, then once they were out of the ring, I created their bodies to look like them..
And then they were set, I spoke the words.
"DOSHU BODIRA TUQARA!" I cast the spell, and they were in front of us, looking like themselves.
"Ebe.."Ryo said, and Yami looked at me as well.
"Thank Ra that worked...Anyways, Zorc is coming, and Yami knows how to kill him..Or about him...And I needed to separate you all first...But you can go to the spirit realm in the ring at any time...But I need your help." I quickly gave them the short review, and they nodded, smiling.
"Of course. Eshebe, you can beat him at any time...You're pure light and magic, he's darkness. Just set him on fire." Yami shrugged, and I looked at him.
"It's that easy?"
"To the best of my knowledge." He nodded, and I sighed.
"Well, at least this is done...Welcome back..."I smiled at both of them and told them why they couldn't' come back before, and even in that little time, Zorc still made it quickly.
"GET READY TO DIE PHARAOH!" Zorc yelled, stomping on half the city and rambling on about how he'd rule the world. I scuffed, and stepped out in front of his path.
"And who's this?" He laughed, booming across the canons and pyramids."
"I am Amenankhans...I am here to kill you."
"A puny human girl? MUAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH? PATHECTIC! MOVE ASIDE MORTAL!" He yelled, and I held out my hands toward him, as others hit him with arrows and tried to help with their small magic, which was mostly just Mana casting a protective spell around the people in front. I ignored her attempts, and cast my fire,starting from inside him, and working my way to over throw his dark influence on the eclipse that was happening.
I pushed the shadow from the sun, only getting it to move a little bit, but that was enough to engulf him in white flames, and as he screamed obscurities at me, I felt the magic take over, and throw a new found power at him:
Light beam.
It blast all magic being used on him back except for the light beam, and everything went white for a minute, until it faded.
That did him in, and the demon burned to ashes, the solar eclipse ending.
I sighed, taking back control, a little tired, but ready for anything.
"Mana!" The Pharaoh yelled, and I turned to see where Mana stood, there was no ashes.
At least I'd gotten rid of someone who might let the secret slip.
The Pharaoh knelt down beside the ashes, picking them up to only have them slip through his fingers.
"MANA!" He screamed to the sky, then turned his gaze on me, glaring with anger.
"YOU! YOU DID THIS! SHE TOLD EM EVERYTHING, AND MY MEMORY CAME BACK! YOU HORRIBLE PERSON!"
"She just saved you." Yami stepped in front of me, and I sighed, pushing him aside.
"Yami, go away. I need to do this now."
"You're powers..."He whispered, and I nodded.
"Will be fine. GO." I touched him, and sealed all three Bakura's of them in the ring.
The Pharaoh came closer, pulling out his dueling disk.
"Duel me, and you live." He spat, and I rolled my eyes.
"Put that away Pharaoh. I don't duel, I fight for real." I said, and the disk burst in flames. He gasped and threw it to the ground.
"Fine."
Authors note:
So, Zorc is dead, and the Pharaoh's challenging Eshebe to the death...with a children's card game? Not on Eshebe's terms. Fighting with magic, fists, REAL fighting. Not some duel. Please Pharaoh, grow up. :\
Yeah, stuff happened again :)
