Duel between Puzzle and Ring. Part-7
Okay the author here. JJ ::Waves:: I decided on Seto's past name as Setau. I decided on Bakura's past name as Bakenmut. This is my idea on these names so if you wish to use it for your fic please ask me first, Thank you.
The storm was growing angrier each minute. Yugi was getting more upset. He didn't like the sounds of the storm at all. Joey was worried about his friend. Lisa was looking through her deck. She listened to the wind scream it's anger. Setau had walked over to his desk. He looked at the teens. They were different from anyone he had ever met. He wondered more and more about them. "Yugi." The boy jumped. "Yugi are you alright?" Joey stood up and went over to Yugi. "Buddy calm down. It's just the wind."
"Is it or is it more than that? I don't know what to believe anymore. I..."
"Yugi. Joey and I are here with you." Lisa had put her deck away and came over to Joey and Yugi. She kneeled down in front of Yugi. "Yugi it's going to be all right. We're going to make it through this together." Yugi shook all over. "I don't know any more Lisa. I..." Lisa put her hands on Yugi's knees. "Yugi I know we've been through so much but just hold on a bit longer. Okay?" Yugi looked at Lisa and at Joey. "Okay. I just want to go home."
"So do I Yugi." Joey rubbed Yugi's head. "I don't like sand in my shoes." Yugi laughed out loud. "That's my buddy." Joey grinned in a silly way. "Thanks for being my friends." Lisa stood up. "It's I that should be thank you. You gave me a chance to be your friend. Even after what my Uncle did to you and your Grandfather."
Suddenly the wind died down. "Well it seems it's time to face Bakenmut." Yami rose from his bed. The teens turned to face the Pharaoh. "Are you all right Yami?" Blood Ruby eyes looked into Yugi's purple eyes. "Yes I am."
"No you still need some time Yami." Yami looked at Setau with a bit of anger. "I'm fine."
Lisa shook her head. "Listen your friend. You need a bit more time." Yami got up from his bed and then realized she and Setau were right. He sank back down into the bed. "Darn you two." Lisa just grin. "You just need a little more time."
"We will hold off Bakenmut for you." Joey held up one of his cards. "Joey's right, Yami. We'll keep him busy." Yugi jumped off the wooden seat. "Let's do it!" Lisa, Joey and Yugi exited the tent. "Setau, will they be okay?" Yami looked at his friend. "I hope so Yami. They are the only ones that can face Bakenmut right now. You still need another hour of rest so we can put his soul into the Ring."
"You mean..." Setau nodded. "Oblivion!!! That is what you must do. As I hold his soul."
"So as I do Oblivion, Bakenmut's soul will enter the Ring whole."
"No pieces of his soul will remain in his body."
"Good. He doesn't deserve any life in that body of his." Yami held his Puzzle. It began to glow. Once again it was asking questions. It wanted to know the connection he had with them.
~What connection? I have only known them for a few days.~ The Puzzle though kept pushing the question. ~Why do you think I have any connection with them?~
The Puzzle sighed and then filled Yami with it's engery. ~Your Jealous of them!~
The Puzzle jolted him. ~Why? I need you and you need me. Why would you be jealous of them. I would never leave you.~
The Puzzle then sent soothing power though the Pharaoh. ~I'm sorry if I made you feel like that.~
"Are you all right Yami?"
"Yes Setau. I'm okay."
"Let's hope our new friends can hold off Bakenmut for a bit longer."
"I know they will Setau. There's this feeling I have that they will." Setua looked one more time at the scroll. He got up and walked over to Yami. "Let's go over the plan one more time." Yami nodded.
Bakenmut exited the makeshift tent. He growled under his breath. Some of Hor's men were dead. Night had fallen and he could feel that the Pharaoh had gotten back his Puzzle.
Darn that woman. It was all her fault. It had to be her. All his planing gone with the gust of wind and sand. A cold evil grin came across his face. That woman will pay the highest price for what she had done. He would have her watch everything that would happen to her friends and then leave her alone in the desert. "Your time has come Lisa. I'll make sure of that."
"Bakenmut!" He turn to face Hor. -It seems the gods have more plans for the preist Hor.-
"What are our losses?" Hor shook his head. "We lost some good fighters."
"Fighters aren't important Hor. I feel we be facing something that our fighters can't deal with." Hor looked at Bakenmut. He started to think it was a bad idea to join forces with him. It wasn't the fact he didn't want power but it was the Ring that scared him the most now. "So how do you want to proceed?" Bakenmut touched his Ring. "Get the men ready to battle. We must move quickly before our dear little Pharaoh has time to counter attack." Hor bowed and ran to gather the men. "Time to die, my Pharaoh, and for Lisa to lose everything she loves." Bakenmut and his army marched towards the oasis.
Lisa, Yugi and Joey walked to the edge of the oasis. "Lisa?"
"Yes, Yugi?" The boy looked down at the ground. "Do you think we can stop Bakenmut?"
"Of couse we will Yugi. Remember that Bakura got the Ring in the future and ya know how it reacts to your Puzzle." Joey rubbed his friend's head. Yugi thought for a moment. "Then do you think that the Ring remembers his past?"
"Good question. Maybe we can ask it when we get back." Lisa rubbed her ankh. -Wish Nyla was here, she might be able to help us out with this problem.-
"Anyways, if this is the Ring we know and love, what cards do ya think it will attack us with?" Yugi thought for a moment. "Well I think the most dangerous card we be facing is Change of Heart."
"Are there any more cards I should know about?" Lisa waited for Yugi or Joey to speak up. "There are a few others cards. Man-Eating Bug and Headless Knight cards that I know of."
"We best be ready for them then." They got out their decks and pulled a few cards out. The wind had died down altogether now. A silent calm make Yugi shiver. "We'll beat him Yugi."
"Lisa's right Yugi. There three of us to face him."
"But isn't that cheating?"
"Maybe if this was a normal duel but, this is a war for the rule over Eygpt or even power over the Shadow Realm." Lisa looked at her friend. Yugi was in deep though over what Lisa said. -Lisa does have few good points. Bakenmut isn't going to play fair. He just wants to kill Yami, not duel.-
"Okay Lisa what's the plan?" She raised one of her cards. "We make them so scared they run away before raising a hand against us." Yugi looked at his Dark Magician. "Let's hope we have the Gods on our side then."
Sounds of an army came to the teens' ears. As the army came over the last dune. They came face to face with a Red Eyes Black Dragon. The smell of brimstone came across the air. Bakenmut could only stare. He knew of no one with that monster but, there it stood. The dragon roared out a bloody scream. "How ya like my dragon, Bakenmut?" It was the blonde teen, Joey. That spoke. "Let's see if you can stop my Change of Heart card."
"Joey can't but I can. With this card, Magic Jammer."
"NO!!!!" both cards disintegrated. "I should have killed you Lisa and taken that boy from your dead hands." Hor watched in horror as most of the men dropped their swords, spears and bows and ran away. A few men held their ground. It was that Red Eyes Black Dragon that scared them away.
"Well we got most of the army to run but, Bakenmut is still here."
"True Lisa but, where is he going to run too. Yami knows he's got the Ring and wants to kill him." Yugi looked up at Lisa. "Try my Headless Knight Lisa." Bakenmut threw the card at her. The creature came to life. A suit of armor headed towards Lisa. No head on the monster for Lisa to look at it's eyes. "Try this card Bakenmut. Goddess of Light."
Yami and Setau had heard the start of the battle. Most of Yami's guards stood at the egde of the campment. "Why aren't any of you at the front line of this battle?" One of the men bow to the ground. "My king there is a Red Eyes Black Dragon up there and then there is all the power of evil in the air. We do not know what to do." Yami looked at Setau. "Do not fear the Red Eyes. For it is on our side." The men took up shouts of joy and courage. Yami whisper into Setau's ear. "Do you think that Red Eyes is Lisa's?"
"If not it's Joey's."
"What, that blone teen controls a Red Eyes as well?" Setau nodded to his king. "Well I am now speechless. Here I thought Joey's Time Wizard was his best card. My people, it's time to stop Bakenmut and the people who want to destroy my kingdom." The guards once again shouted in rejoice.
Then the land shook and a flash of light. Yami and Setau heard Lisa's voice boom across the dunes. "JUDGEMENT!!!" Again the ground shook. "What in the world was that?" Yami and Setau ran up the dune. Yami let out a breath of air. The shock was in his face. There stood a Monster he had never seen before. It was a woman in long robes , A headdress and then in her hands were the symbols of a Pharaoh. The Sickle and Flail. "What in the names of the Gods?"
"A Goddess of Light is her name, Yami. I can't say how I came into possesion of her, but she is mine." Lisa's body was giving a warm glow. Yami felt the pull of her power. The Puzzle started to glow as well. ~Calm down. It's okay.~ Bakenmut growed at the site of Yami and Setua. "Lisa I have an idea."
"What is it Yugi?" Joey had withdrawn his Red Eyes. "We can use this card." Yugi held out the Swords of Revealing Light. "We are those Swords. I can feel it." Lisa touched the card. "Ya mean become the Swords of Revealing Light." Joey looked at both of his friends. Lisa nodded. "So what going to happen to us?"
"If I'm right Joey, we go home." The three teens face one another and touched the card. They began to glow. They turn to face Bakenmut. In Union they spoke. "Your time is up Bakenmut. Swords of Revealing Light." Lisa, Yugi and Joey suddenly found themselves holding Bakenmut. "Yami!!! Setau!!! Cast your spell now!!!"
"But what about you!?!" Setau held back Yami from trying to get to them."It's our time Yami please don't worry about us." Yugi was holding on to one of Bakenmut's arms. Tears ran down Yami's face. "My Pharaoh?!?!"
"Do your spell Setau I will do my part. I hope Bakenmut's soul will never see the light of day again."
It happened so fast. Setau hold out his Rod and Yami shouted out Oblivion!!!
Bakenmut screamed echoed through out the desert. Then the light cleared all that was left was the Ring. Yami fell to his knees and cried. Setau ordered the Guards to capture Hor and the remains of Bakenmut's army. "Why Setau, WHY???"
"Only the Gods can answer you Yami." Setau then left Yami and walked over to retreve the Ring. He felt for a moment the souls of Yugi, Lisa and Joey. They touched his soul and told him they were heading home and to tell Yami they will meet him again in another lifetime. Setau smiled and headed back to Yami to tell him his friends were okay.
So did Yugi, Lisa and Joey go home or has something else happened to them? Thanks Jumper Prime for the spell check.
