Chapter 13: Revelations
"What's wrong, Bakura?" Yuugi inquired, the three Millennium Item holders were still awake.
"Look at this." Bakura held out his Millennium Ring, one of the spikes pointing towards Pegasus' castle. "One of the points of the Millennium Ring is pointing towards Pegasus' castle."
"You're right." Yuugi blinked.
"It did the same thing the first day I came to Domino High School" Bakura added. "It was pointing at that time too, at your Millennium Puzzle."
"So, the Millennium Ring is pointing towards Pegasus' Millennium Item?" Yuugi mused.
"Millennium Item?" Bakura blinked.
"I quite forgot about that little titbit." Ami admitted. "One of the Millennium Ring's powers is detecting the presence of the other Millennium Items."
"Just what are the Millennium Items?" Bakura wondered. "Where did they come from? Right now, I don't know anything at all. Come to think of it," he turned to Ami. "How is it that the Millennium Ring couldn't detect your Millennium Scales?"
"That's," Ami drew her face close to Bakura. "For me to know and for you not to find out."
"I warned you she's in teasing mode." Yuugi chuckled, seeing Bakura's flush after Ami pulled back.
"Oh, shut up." Bakura muttered.
"You know, you'll have to put in more effort if you want to woo her." Yuugi suggested.
"Wha…" Bakura blinked.
"Consider this cousin approval." Yuugi grinned.
"Ami," Bakura poked his head around the tree the trio were under. "Have you not slept? Or have the memories of the past been plaguing you?"
"How…" Ami hid her shock.
Bakura hushed her, ""I have a question for you, if you do not mind me asking it." He held out a lotus flower bud to her. "On the night you arrived to Domino, I dreamt of you… of us and Marik… was it real?"
"That dream that you had," Ami sighed, her golden ahkh manifesting, its power allowing the bud to bloom. "Was a memory. But this flower is as real as anything. It cannot leave you, because it has found its carer once again. I know you have many questions more, but I cannot answer them all, not now."
"What if I told you that I do not care?" Bakura's eyes stood firm. "What if I told you that I want to know what happened, if whatever dreams I have been having of you were true?" the reincarnated palace gardener looked on as he witnessed a flash of pain fly past Ami's face.
Ami, on the other hand, did not know that his had dreams that were all memories of their past, and now that he had told her that, she had no choice. "Yes, every single detail was true. You were the head gardener of the royal palace, and Marik was one of the royal guards, working his way up the imperial ladder. The two of you fell in love with me almost simultaneously, it wasn't even funny."
"The both of us agreed to share you?" Bakura echoed.
"Yes," Ami snorted in amusement. "Isis had no complaints, she's just happy that his little brother had found someone, even if he had to share. Then, when Serenity poisoned the two of you in a fit of childish envy…"
Bakura pulled the reminiscing former Princess into a hug, "No matter what happens to me, whatever I become, and you will always have a place in my heart… Did I tell you these words?" he whispered.
"You did, so did Marik, on your dying beds." Ami admitted. "I was there when the both of you took your last breaths and I never forgave Serenity for what she did. In retaliation, the Silver Queen had forced me to go through the 'Wheel of Reincarnation' and had my powers restricted to first stage."
"I'm sorry." Bakura muttered, kissing her softly. Soon, the kiss deepened, his fingers clasped with hers. Once again, he tasted dew and fresh lilies, and once again, he felt whole. This girl, he loved her, be it in this life or in the past. He would love her for all eternity… He had left her before, but no longer. He would never let go of her, ever again; this, Bakura Ryou swore.
