Chapter 2
Gold Trinkets and Bad Dreams
"Thank you," Kara said, "you're welcome" her host replied. Kara drank the tea deeply and sighed. "By the way" Kara started "my name is Kara.Montgomery", "I'm Tristan Taylor", "nice to meet you Tristan Taylor" Kara jokingly said, Tristan chuckled at her joke. "Why exactly are you here? Don't your parents wonder where you are?" Kara saddened shook her head no, "My parents..well I never knew them, and I came here because back home if you 'borrowed' anything" Kara smiled and motioned with her hand " you get punished or worse put to death." Tristan looked aghast with what she had said. 'Good', Kara thought, 'he must not know any more.at least not yet.' "Hmmm?" Kara looked up lost in her thoughts, "I said do you have extra clothes?" Tristan stated "no just the clothes on my back" she responded "ok then.uh do you have any money?" Kara furrowed her brow "I think so" she fumbled with her jacket pocket "aha! Here we go!" she handed Tristan a wad of cash. "That is two thousand-American, is that enough?" He just looked at her with disbelief "this is more than enough!" "Ok, good cause I need to get it converted to the yen right?" she asked. "Right" he replied. "Well any"- Kara yawned -" way I need to get some sleep". When Kara was shown to her room, she checked that the door was locked, when she was assured it was, she went over to the floor length mirror, and sighed 'why am I such a freak?' she thought to herself examining her now purple eyes; she shook the thought away and waved her hand in front of her chest and murmured "Vicon Minossa", golden scales appeared under her hand. Kara smiled at her reflection in the mirror, the scales glinting in the moonlight. She settled on the bed and unwrapped her bondages on her thigh and set to the painstaking long task of healing herself, all the while the third eye insignia glowed on her forehead.. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
There was blood everywhere.the Pharaoh wept as he cradled the still warm body. "No! Please! No!" he cried out. He held the body like a lover who met his true love for the first time "no." he whispered, his hot tears spilling off his cheeks onto the stone cold ground. Yami Yugi bolted upright in his bed. He panted wildly getting a good look around the dark room. 'Ugh.I don't know how much more of this I can handle..' Yami thought to himself. 'What can you not handle?' asked a familiar voice. 'Nothing! Just a dream.. That is all' Yami replied sternly. 'Ok I was just wondering..' Yugi trailed off. Yami sighed 'it is not your fault it's just that. I am plagued with these strange dreams.' 'is this the reason why you asked me to let you take over my body?' Yugi inquired. A few weeks ago Yami had asked Yugi if he could have full control of Yugi's body for a short while. 'Sure' Yugi had agreed 'but you have to do my homework- and well! And when you are done with my body, I shall have full control for the next month, ok?' Yami had grudgingly agreed to his terms. Yami sighed again 'Yes but I thought that they would get better not worse.' he placed his head in his hands despairingly 'these dreams are driving me crazy!' he thought to himself 'we'll find a way to solve these dreams ok?' asked Yugi. Yami was too tired to argue or agree with his alter ego so he just laid back down and fell into a restless, dreamless sleep.
