Last Time
"Greetings young children. I did not think you would have gotten this far. Pegasus's castle draws near are you ready to face your next challenge," asked the sphinx.
"What challenge," asked Joey.
"My challenge," purred the sphinx, "I'm Nagare, the youngest of sphinx sisters that you will meet. Master Pegasus has requested that I guard this gate. As you get closer to the castle you met my sister if you manage to get past me."
"What do we have to," asked Yami.
"Simple," said Nagare, "I will give you a riddle. You have as long as you like to solve it. But remember time is against you. And should you fail to give me the correct answer I will get to eat all of you. Give me the correct answer and you will continue forward. Agree?"
"Agree," said Yami, "So what's the riddle?"
"Patience young pharaoh," purred Nagare. "But here is the riddle. I eat all my life but when I drink I die."
A puzzle look appeared on everyone's face. This was going to be harder than they thought. Nagare smiled, looks like she'll be having roasted human for dinner tonight.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"I eat all my life but when I drink I die, huh," said Izzy.
"As anyone hear of that riddle before," asked Tai. Everyone shook their heads.
"This I going to be harder than," mumble Hoshi.
~*~That Night~*~
Nightfall came fast as Seto set up camp. Wit the help of Yamato they made dinner. Everyone else was focusing on trying to figure out the riddle.
"You have any idea what the answer to the riddle is," Yamato asked Seto.
Seto shook his head, "I never heard of such a riddle before. It's a new one to me."
"Same here." Seto struck a match and ignite the wood. Soon the fire was going. Meanwhile Hoshi sat far away from the group puzzled by the riddle. The lighting of the fire caught her attention. As the fire grew and crackled sparks, something clicked in Hoshi's head. She walked up to Nagare.
"So child do you have an answer," purred Nagare.
"I do," said Hoshi.
*What is Hoshi thinking? Does she have an answer,* thought everyone.
Hoshi smiled, "The answer to your riddle is fire. Fire eats the oxygen in the air to live. But when it drinks it died. Water extinguish the fire, causing it to died."
Nagare looked at Hoshi shocked that a young girl could solve one of her hardest riddles. She sighed in defeat the gates open and she said bitterly, "You may proceed."
"Yes," said Hoshi.
"How did you figure it out, Hoshi," asked Seto.
"Simple when you lit the fire it crackled and grew. The answer just popped into my head from there."
"She see a fire and the answer pops into her head and we have been sitting here for hours trying to figure it out and she solves it in five seconds," mumble Joey.
"Lighten up Joey," said Yugi, "At least we didn't become dinner for a hungry sphinx."
"I know. So tell me how does Hoshi figure out these things so fast."
"I don't know. Maybe you should ask her."
~~Later~~
Everyone set up camp for the night after pasting through Nagare's gate. In the shadow a monster that looked like a clown stood watching the DD and Yugioh crew as the fell asleep. Giggling the clown took out a blue power and scattered over the children as they continue to sleep. Giggling the clown disappeared. This would be fun to feed upon the dreams of these sweet children.
~~Dream world~~
"This is weird, said Joey. He looked around. He was back home.
"Big brother!" Joey turned around. His little sister was running up to him.
*What is going on here,* thought Joey., *I thought I was in the shadow realm.*
"Come on big brother," said Serenity. (Sp?) She dragged him to the bus stop and climbed on. Soon they got off at a familiar beach. "Remember this place Joey?"
Joey nodded his head. Was he back home with his sister at the very same beach he promised to take her to again? Or was it all a dream. Suddenly the sky grew dark as a storm began to brew in the ocean. The was a scream as Joey looked just in time to see his little sister being pulled into the ocean and swept away with the strong current. Joey jumped in to save her but never got that far. The current pulled him back to the beach as Joey watch helplessly as his sister began to drown under the strong current. "No.....NO...NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Joey slammed his fists into the ground.
~~Somewhere else~~
Yami looked around. He was in ancient Egypt again. The scene whirled and formed the Shadow Realm. Upon there he saw Hoshi and Yugi ripped to pieces by a monster. "No," whispered Yami as he saw the two people who mean the most to him killed. At the same time Hoshi and Yugi were going through something similar, as was everyone else. Their love ones killed right before their eyes and them not being able to help in any way.
~*~
Hoshi looked around. This had to be a dream, wait not a dream a nightmare. This can't be real. Hoshi put her hand over her heart. *This ISN'T real. Yami and Yugi hearts beat as one with me and I know that they are still alive. THIS IS JUST AN ILLISION!*
Hoshi looked around for a way out of this mess. There was no way out. "hehe." Hoshi stopped, in the wind someone was giggling. Then something hit her full force. Images of the past and the present flashed before Hoshi's eye. Every bad and horrible memories flash in Hoshi's mind as she dropped to the ground trying to rid her mind of those memories.
Summoning her power she said, "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!! Digital attack!" A white light filled the area as Hoshi found herself back at camp with everyone else.
Tai sat up. "What happen," he asked. The last thing he remember was that he saw Kari and Agumon died right before his eyes. Everyone else started to wake up too.
Hoshi blinked she didn't understand what happen. "hehe." Hoshi looked up there was that giggling again. There standing in the darkness was a clown. Hoshi gasped, "It's the Dream Clown."
The others looked at it. "You mean the thing is what cause that nightmare," asked Yugi.
"That what it sound like to me," answered Tristan.
"It's bad enough that Pegasus is back and out to kill us. But now a clown is toying with our minds too," complained Joey.
"You said it," mumbled Sora.
Yugi focused an energy attack in his hands. "It looks like it doesn't know that we broke his spell just yet. How about we destroy him fast," he commented.
"Sound good to me," said Seto.
Yugi let go of the attack, "Heaven's Light!" The attack spiral up to the Dream Clown. It gasped as the attack came towards him. There was no time to dodge it. The clown to full force of the attack ripping him to pieces. Yugi looked at where the clown was standing. A serious looked was on his face. "Never toy with my friends and family Pegasus. I let you go the first time. I'm not going to let that happen again."
~~Pegasus's Lair~~
"I hear you Yugi-boy, but time is slowly clicking away. You and your sister are the only thing left. Once I have you power nothing will stop me. Nothing you hear me," said Pegasus with an evil laugh.
~*~
Our group of friends made their way onward. Which each step they seem to make it closer to Pegasus's castle. But once again there was a gate stopping them. Once again there was a sphinx awaiting there for them. She looked just like Nagare but older.
"Greetings young child. I assume that if you made this far you have beaten my sister. I'm Neo the second of the sphinx sisters," said Neo.
"Another sphinx. Man how many more are you," asked Yamato.
"That I can not tell you. You will have to find that out yourself. Here is my riddle. See if you can solve it. Thorn, Stew, Shout, and Seat what I'm I?"
"Huh what that suppose to mean," asked Izzy.
"Figure out the riddle and you will get four answer. I await you answers when ever you are ready," said Neo. She settled down on her perch.
~*~
So does any one know the answer. Sorry if I mess it up a bit. I don't remember the real way it goes so I kinda made another way. don't worry it the same answers it may just be another version of what you hear. Sorry if I made Yugi a little OOC when facing the Dream Clown. I had someone destroy the Dream Clown. I gave Hoshi a lot of the spotlight in this chapter already and I didn't want to use her again and Yami didn't see the right person to put in there at the moment. Oh well. Please Review.
P.S. I'll take riddles the more riddles the more chapter I can make with them.
All right here we go. I congratulate Mathais-8888 and Rachel Tobiason for getting the riddle right. Congratulate!
Also I don't own digimon or yu gi oh or the little bit of Cardcaptor. I do own what ever does
