Chapter 8: Reunited of Sorts

Yami ran. He knew where Evvy was. Her tomb was far to the left and back. He had never visited her before. He was afraid to. Yami looked behind and saw Yugi and Anzu running behind him. He smiled, turned and waited. They caught up to him, panting. "Yamy, why the rush?" asked Yugi gasping. He put his hands on his knees and wheezed. Yami bent down and looked at Yugi. He was flushed and his eyes were closed, as he was gasping. Yami picked up the smaller boy and cradled him as he would a smaller child. Yugi's breathing slowed. Yami trotted with Yugi still in his arms toward the tombs. Anzu stood still as Yami trotted away. 'Ra, he is acting like a...guardian...'

::Very smart Child::

Anzu jumped

'What in the underworld?!'

:: You have figured the Pharoahs true side. One of his that is::

'Are you Ra?'

::NO!::

Anzu jumped again

::WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP THINKING I AM RA?! I AM NOT!!::

'Who ARE you?'

::My name is Shadii:

'What do you want Shadii?'

::To warn you of your Pharoah::

'Ra defend us. Whats wrong?'

::Are you aware of his misdeeds?::

'Of course I am. I was his personal slave for three days'

:: Do you know WHY he acts the way he does?::

'Uh...'

::Allow me to show you::

Anzu saw visions in her mind of Yami's childhood, and a woman. She watched as Yami cried her name... Evvy. [a/n: The name is pronounced Eh-vee. not eevee. I did not bite off the Mummy *cough* DarkLadySetsuna *cough* :-D]

When the visions were cut off, Anzu dropped to her knees horrified. That was what Yugi was talking about the other night. Yami turned around. He did not hear Anzu behind him.

.:.:.: Yami's P.OV .:.:.:

I didn't hear the girl Anzu behind me. Wondering what happened I spun, trying to keep Yugi in my arms. Anzu was on the floor, kneeling like she saw death and Anubis looming before her. I ran to her, holding Yugi to my chest, so he wouldn't fall. I held out my hand, just like she did to me. What if she was hurt? Anzu looked at me frightened, like I was a monster. I reminded myself, I was. Cradling Yugi with one arm, I helped Anzu up. I was a fool to run when she was probably tired. She murmured Thank You and we continued to run

.:.:.: End P.O.V .:.:.:

Anzu hobbled next to Yami horrified. The visions were so much worse, then how Yugi repeated it. Yami put an arm around Anzu's. He looked down at her, red eyes extremely concerned. Anzu walked, supported by Yami's arm. Yugi fell asleep against Yami's chest, supported by his other arm.

Yami made it to the tomb of the girl Evvy. Anzu was still hobbling. Now tears were running down her face. Shadii had sent another vision. Of Yami and a set of golden scales. The scales were not balanced. Yami was ripped from his body and was no more.

Yami carefully set Yugi down against a rock. He was still sleeping. He then caught Anzu as she nearly collapsed. He picked her up as easily as he did Yugi "Ra...whats the matter?!" Anzu wiped away the tears and shook her head. "It is nothing" It hurt too much. Too much to comprehend. The visions probably weren't true.

Yami set her down next to Yugi and turned and walked slowly to the sarcophogus of Evvy. He went to his knees and prayed to her spirit 'Evvy, I am sorry. Send me a sign. Please!'

Anzu passed out as she was the back of Yami's head. His blond bangs were pushed back so she saw blond from that angle amongst the black and red. 'Ra... he doesn't deserve that. Save him'
