Keori: Well, here's my fourth chappie. It's supposed to be Keori trying to
make up her mind again.
Joey and Malik: Again?
Keori: Oh shut up and just read! Smiles playfully
Joey: Uh hmm...
Keori: Oh yes, and I don't own Yugioh. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Keori woke up, lying in her bed. Tears stained her chest and pillow. She was still wearing the clothing that she had worn the day before. She hadn't bothered in changing, no matter how cold and wet she was. She wanted to suffer. Suffer for what she had done to Joey.She wished she could make it all go away, make it so that she had never met him. So that they had never met her. They would be better off without her. She wished so hard that she had never left Egypt. Wait! That was it! She would go back to Egypt! Yes, leave. The others would be much happier. Especially Joey.
She sat up and looked out her window. It was still raining but now not as heavy. She reached for her clock beside her and instead grabbed something flat and rectangular. She pulled her hand back to her and looked at the object. It was a picture. A picture of her friends and her. They had taken this picture when she had first arrived. They were all smiling. Laughing to be exact. They were all on one side of the picture pointing at her and Joey. Joey had his arms wrapped around her and was kissing her cheek. Keori was bright pink but still was smiling. That was one of her fondest memories. The first time she had met the only friends she ever had. And now she was going to leave them.
She looked at her clock. It flashed 6:00 a.m over and over. That was good. None of her friends woke up that early. She had to hurry and get ready. She slipped out of bed and changed into her favourite clothing. She pulled on her dark blue jeans that had innocent running down her leg. She picked up a large grey t-shirt that had HI-NAY 66 written across it. It was once Joey's favourite shirt but he had given it to her. She hugged it to her chest and then slipped it over her head. She dug through her drawers looking for what she had put there so long ago. She found it. A flowing, snow white roab. Beside it lay a rich maroon coloured scarf. She picked it up and unfolded it. Wrapped in the middle of it were many gold bracelets, a necklace with a ruby scarab, and amidst it all lay a tiny, golden ring with the millenium eye ingraved into the centre of it amongst many diamonds. She lifted it to meet her gaze. She rotated it so that it caught the light just right and it reflected it onto the wall into a blriiliant rainbow of coloured light. She sighed. She needed someone to talk to and she hadn't spoke to her ever since she had done nearl killed Joey and the others. Joey had tried to pursuade her that it wasn't her fault and that nothing had happened to them.
"It wasn't her fault," she decided. "She was forced to and if she hadn't have done so we never would have met." She raised her hand and slipped the tiny ring on her finger. Instantly she felt the power surge through her body and was suddenly aware of a second presence.
//Welcome back, Sachi.//
\\Aibou? Is that really you? I thought you were never going to talk to me again!\\
//I'm sorry, Sachi. It wasn't your fault. I was just...no, there's no excuse. I am sorry.//
\\All is forgiven. I'm glad to be back.\\
//I'm glad to have you back. Listen, we are going back to Egypt//
\\What? Why? I thought you liked it here! Don't you?\\
//Yes, but that's not the point. The point is that we have to leave.//
\\Hai, Aibou. I will follow you anywhere.\\
Keori felt the barrier come up between her mind and Sachi's. She smiled faintly, memories of her many adventures with Sachi came into her mind. She had started this adventure with Sachi, and now she'd end it with her. She picked up her phone and dialed the Kaiba's number. She expected to get the answering machine but instead a semi-deep male voice spoke to her. "Hello! Kaiba corp., Seto Kaiba speaking. How can I help you?" Keori hesitated. "Hi Seto. It's me, Keori. I have something to ask you." Keori waited, "Uh.. Yeah, what is it?" She responded slowly, "I want you to tell the others that I am going back to Egypt. But you have to tell them after I leave. Could you do that for me?" There was an awkward silence on the other end and then, "I guess so. But why don't you tell them yourself? And why do you want me to tell them after you leave?" Keori whispered into the receiver, "They can't know. They might try to stop me. I can't let that happen. I... I just can't. Thank you, goodbye Seto, tell them I'll miss them. And I'll miss you, too." There was silence, and then there was a click on the other line.
She placed down the phone and continued to pack the remaining precious items that she could not part with. She zipped up the suitcase and walked downstairs. She entered the kitchen to pack a snack for the ride because she wasn't really into plane food. Turning to exit the room she nearly tripped over a black ball of fur. She yelped and skipped to avoid stepping on the peaceful body. She smiled, "Nanako, why do you always seem to be where you're least expected? Oh well, it's a good thing anyway. I could have forgot you and that would be a terribly dreadful thing." A pair of bright green eyes stared up at her, blinked, and then closed again, uninterested. She picked up the lounging cat and rubbed it behind the ears. A rumbling purr ran through it's body. She smiled. She was another gift from Joey. Most of the things that she cherished and loved were somehow connected to the young blonde. Her eyes grew misty. She blinked them back and strided to the chest of drawers by the front door. She opened the top drawer and picked out a small, cloth bag and slipped it into her pocket. She would need this. She walked outside and raised her head to the only true home that she ever knew. Individual raindrops splattered against the windows and ran down into the neatly trimmed grass. Tears welled up in her eyes as she turned and began the hardest walk that she would ever be forced to endure.
