By: Michelle Siu a.k.a. setokaibalover

Hi, I'm back with another chapter of A Noble Heart and a Noble Soul. So I haven't written in a while, well sorry, because I've been busy with my page and since school started I had to get things under control. My site will be up soon, so just wait. I'll get things back underhand well; let's start the chapter, shall we?

Seto: Michelle! You haven't been writing for so long! What happened?

Michelle: Aw. Seto-kun, that's so sweet! You care for me! Glomps Seto

Seto: Blush

Malik: Michelle, did you have a good summer?

Michelle: Malik! I sure did, it was fun! Thank you for asking! Glomps Malik

Malik: Sticks his tongue out at Seto

Ryou Bakura: Can we get the story started?

"How am I supposed to get into Pegasus' castle?" Seto asked himself.

"What am I supposed to be? An invisible guy that no one can see?" Malik asked

"No one asked you to come, you just tagged along. I'm going to save Michelle by myself, you got it?" Seto shouted.

"No, I don't think so. I am going to save Michelle! I'm in league with Pegasus, remember? My sister, Isis, and my brother, Rishid, were supposedly brainwashed. Well, that was because I stole Isis' Millennium Tauk and took it for myself!" Malik told Seto.

"Great, now help me find an opening to Pegasus' castle," Seto said hastily.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"Michelle, will you tell me now?" Pegasus said sweetly.

Then, Michelle started laughing for no apparent reason. Unfortunately, that got Pegasus really, really pissed.

"What's so funny?" Pegasus demanded.

"It's just the fact that you're holding wine in your hand AGAIN and your name!" Michelle burst out.

"I happen to like wine and what about my name? Maxi million Pegasus, there's nothing wrong with that!" Pegasus shouted.

"More like Maxi million Flying Horse!" Michelle laughed.

Pegasus' face grew red with embarrassment, then he looked really mad, and then he looked embarrassed again. Then, he looked very serious.

"Tell me your secret," He demanded.

"What secret?" Michelle asked innocently.

"If you won't tell me, then I'll go see for myself!" Pegasus said madly.

"No you won't, just try me!" Michelle said.

Pegasus tried and tried, but his efforts were in vain. For some odd reason, he could not look into Michelle's soul. It might have been because of her Millennium Items, but she had left all of them with Nikko, Naito, and her aibou, Yukiko. Therefore, it really didn't make any sense at all! "Why can't I see into your soul?" Pegasus cried angrily," What secrets do you have from me?"

"No, the question is what secret did you keep from me? Ok, I'll tell you." Michelle said.

"Perfect," Pegasus interrupted.

"Wait, I'll tell you, if you tell me where my sister is! Tell me where Sapphire is! Hand her over!" Michelle demanded.

"So you're that legendary duelist, that little girl keeps talking about." Pegasus said.

"Yeah, keep talking, give her to me!" Michelle shouted.

"She also said something about Millennium Items." Pegasus said slyly.



"Ok, we're in, now what?" Malik asked.

Seto ignored him and continued walking through the dungeons. Suddenly he heard a sound and stopped moving. He hid in the shadows with Malik at his side.

"Who's there?" A girl's voice demanded.

Seto realized it was a prisoner; he stepped out of the shadows and started to pick the lock.

"Who are you two? Wait a second, I know you!" She shouted pointing at Malik," Your one of Flying Horse's evil henchmen! GET AWAY FROM ME, DON'T COME ANY CLOSER!"

Seto had finished picking the lock, he opened the door and said," I'm Seto Kaiba, CEO of Kaiba Corp., we snuck in here to rescue a girl named, Michelle Siu, have you seen her?"

"Yeah I have, I saw her everyday before Flying Horse took me away," The girl said," My name is Sapphire Siu and I'm Michelle Siu's cousin. Why are you looking for her?"

"She was captured by Pegasus or as you say, Flying Horse, that's why I'm going to save her!" Seto told her politely.

"You save her? I'm going to save her too!" Malik cried angrily.

"You don't trouble to keep your voice down, do you?" Sapphire asked.

"Shut up little girl," Malik snarled, as he did his extra evil aibou, Raidon, appeared.

"You must be careful or my cousin will come after you," Sapphire warned.

"I saved her life, what will she do to me?" Malik asked.

"She's my cousin, please, if you like her, than you won't make fun of me," Sapphire told him.

"Can't you people be quiet? Have you forgotten that we are not supposed to be here and if Pegasus' men find us, we will be in deep trouble?" Seto cried.

"Oh, right." Malik replied.

The three of them set of by foot and soon came to a small set of stairs. Sure enough, they decided to walk up to see what was at the top. When they reached the top they heard shouting and arguing. It was Pegasus' voice and Michelle's voice.

"HELP ME! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!" Michelle screamed.

"No one can help you now! Give me your Millennium Items!" Pegasus cackled insanely.

"Michelle!" Seto yelled as he ran towards Michelle.

"Michelle, are you okay?!" Malik cried.

"Michelle, I finally found you!" Sapphire cried joyously.

"Sapphire, are you alright?! What did he do to you?!" Michelle asked happily and worriedly.

"Excuse me? I was in the middle of torturing her!" Pegasus said angrily.

No one listened to him, so he got really mad. He had enough; he trapped Michelle in a card. Because Michelle hadn't brought her Millennium Items, which she only had two that she brought with her, she hadn't bothered to bring all her yami's except Yukiko. Yukiko wasn't with her because she was told to stay at the camp site to protect the others. Therefore, she was trapped within the card. This time Pegasus made sure that they wouldn't ever be able to get her back, he used his most powerful one. He wanted to make her friends suffer.

"What did you do, you monster? You trapped her like you did to Mokuba! I can't believe you!" Seto shouted angrily.

"HOW DARE YOU! HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO MICHELLE?" Sapphire screamed.

"No. She can't be gone." Malik whispered.

= What is it? Do you need someone killed? =

- Leave me alone, Raidon. -

= Who defied your orders, Malik? It couldn't be your dad, I killed him already. =

She's gone, trapped in a card. She'll never live again. -

= Maybe I can do something about it. =

Ok, please try! -

"Who did this?" Raidon asked in a mighty voice.

"Hahaha! It was me!" Pegasus said gleefully.

"You find it funny? You defied my master, now you must face the consequences." Raidon said taking his Millennium Rod out and turning it into a dagger.

"What do you want?" Pegasus said fearfully," No stay away!"

First, Raidon ran up to Pegasus' shrine to Cecelia and trashed it; he ripped up all his paintings and everything! Nothing that reminded Pegasus of Cecelia was left. It did leave something, a crying and weak Pegasus. Seeing this, Malik seized this opportunity to stab Pegasus many, many times, until he was dead.

"How is Michelle supposed to be restored now?" Seto asked coldly.

He picked up the card that Pegasus sealed her in, something very peculiar was on it. It was a monster card, more like human, but it was called THE GODDESS OF HATHOR.

NAME: THE GODDESS OF HATHOR

TYPE: ALL

ATTACK: 6000

DEFENSE: 6000

FACTS: THIS CARD IS NOT AFFECTED IN ANY WAY BY MAGIC CARDS, TRAP CARDS, OR EFFECT MONSTER CARDS. FOR EACH POWER CARD THE OPPONENT OR THE HOLDER USES ON OTHER MONSTERS, THIS CARD GAIN 500 ATTACK AND DEFENSE POINTS.

Seto was awed by the stats of that card. He wondered why Michelle had become this card. When Mokuba, Yugi's Grandfather, and he had been captured, they never became a card that could be used in the game. Suddenly, Malik's voice snapped him out of his trance.

"Hello? I'm guessing Yugi knows how to restore Michelle; he did restore the girls, Mokuba, and the others. Anyway, since Pegasus let out that high pitch scream, his guards are probably on their way, so let's go," Malik said.

"I agree," Sapphire told him," They are probably on their way; we should go with Michelle's card."

"Ok." Seto said pocketing the card.

Yami Bakura snuck up to Pegasus' building, he saw Pegasus laying dead there. None of Pegasus' guards were there yet, so Bakura took this chance to steal his Millennium Eye. again. Pegasus had gotten the eye back because Shadi found Bakura. Now, since Pegasus was dead it wouldn't matter!

Bakura did his little evil laugh thing and then left.

"Did you get Michelle back, big brother?" Mokuba asked.

"." Seto couldn't speak because he was overwhelmed with sadness.

"Well? What's that supposed to mean?" Yami asked madly.

Suddenly, a loud P.A. came on. "DUE TO PEGASUS' DEATH, THE TOURNAMENT IS CANCELLED!"

"MALIK, COME HERE RIGHT NOW! I NEED TO TALK TO YOU!" A loud and powerful voice called. It was Isis.

"Ummm. Yes?" Malik asked innocently.

"What have I told you about ordering Raidon to kill people?" Isis demanded.

"Please, Isis, go easy on him. He doesn't know any better." Rishid pleaded.

"That is unheard of! An Ishtar does not act that way!" Isis scolded.

"I'm sorry, Isis, please forgive me," Malik pleaded," I won't order him to do anything like killing someone every again."

"I will watch after Malik," Rishid said.

FLASHBACK

"I will protect Malik with all my life," Rishid told Malik's father.

"Daddy, will Rishid always be with me?" Malik asked in such a cute voice.

"Yes, he will, and so will Isis," Malik's Dad said.

"I'll make sure he causes no trouble." Isis had promised. END FLASHBACK ************************************************************************

"Do not forget, Malik, I promised father that I would take care of you!" Isis told him.

"HELLO? DID EVERYONE FORGET ABOUT MY AIBOU?" Yukiko asked madly.

"Oh right," Joey said.

"How are we going to get her back?" Yukiko asked.

"Let me try!" Yami said.

Yami tried, but the spell was too strong.

"We can talk to her by dueling, but we have to get off the island," Sapphire said.

Seto arranged that a large helicopter come pick them up even though he was very sad. On the helicopter, no one could say anything. It was so silent.

The helicopter dropped each one off at their house, but Sapphire followed Mokuba and Seto home because she had no where to stay. When they got to the Kaiba Mansion, Sapphire had a whole wing to herself. Mokuba went to his wing and Seto went to his room, told everyone not to bother him, and shut the door.

"I must find a way to communicate to Michelle without dueling," Seto told himself.

Seto started to build a card hologram device, you could place a card into the slot or lock it in and the hologram of the card would stay there until taken out of the slot. He stayed up the whole night without stopping for food, drinks, sleep; he even lasted the night without going to the washroom! (Sorry, I just had to add that!)

Finally, it was done, the hologram device was finished. Seto smiled in triumph, now, he had to test it. He wasn't exactly sure that it would work and didn't want to risk Michelle's card. Therefore, he took out his Gyakutenno Megami card and place into the slot. Gyakutenno Megami appeared as a clear, looking solid, hologram. Seto shouted in great triumph, he was very happy.

"Seto, what's wrong?" Mokuba asked as he ran into the room, obviously thinking something bad had happened to Seto.

"Has something happened to Kaiba?" Sapphire asked coolly.

"No, I'm fine," Seto said impatiently," You can proceed to what you were doing."

"Okay, but if there's anything wrong, please tell me, big brother." Mokuba told him.

"Ok," Seto replied.

"Where am I?" Michelle asked.

"You are trapped inside a card," A voice told her.

"Who's there? Show yourself!" Michelle demanded.

"I am your guide. My name is Micha, I am a Wing Guide Goddess and was First Class Master of the Arts of all Egypt," Eilonwy said," I have come to train you."

"I don't need no training!" Michelle protested.

"You have many good skills, I can't deny, but you need to learn more," Micha said," You game skills are high, but you fighting skills are incredibly low! Not to mention many other skills, come to think of it, you could improve on your game skills too."

"Are you mocking me?" Michelle asked madly.

"Ummm. Yes." Micha answered," What's your point?"

"Nothing," Michelle said.

"I am going to teach you everything from Flying-," Micha started.

"Flying? You know how to fly?" Michelle asked dumbfounded.

"Yes," Micha said," Look carefully!"

Micha looked upwards into the sky and sailed upwards, she swooped down and did many unbelievable tricks. Michelle couldn't help but think that Micha looked really like. someone. She just couldn't figure out whom.

"First, I'm going to teach you how to fly!" Micha told her," It'll be easy if anyone related to you knew how to fly, but it's not that hard. My mom knew how to fly, so I got the hang of it first thing!"

Michelle was amazed at how much this person knew. She obediently followed the girl's instructions. First, she had to visualize herself in the air, and then she had to jump up. After that, you had to open your eyes and lift your arms. It sounds really easy, but it was actually pretty hard. Michelle got it right away and she was flying like a pro.

"Wow, you must be a very fast learner!" Micha exclaimed.

"I am learning from the best!" Michelle replied," How come you never came to me before?"

"Well, because I was pre-occupied with another girl called Yukiko, she is only a spirit however." Micha told her.

"YUKIKO TOOK LESSONS FROM YOU?!" Michelle shouted.

"Yep!" Micha answered.

"Ok, so just teach me all I need to know. I'm very eager to learn new things," Michelle told her.

"That's the spirit," Micha replied," so let's get started."

Meanwhile, Yami was getting really restless inside his Millennium Puzzle. He finally decided to go for a walk, he got out of the Puzzle and without even a glance at Yugi, and he left. Yami Bakura was really worried; he honestly couldn't get any sleep! In fact, no one could!

Everyone was headed to the park at the exact same time. Well, actually Yugi was already sitting on the swings with Ryou. They had both left their home to take a walk. Nobody could sleep because their friend was held prisoner inside a card. maybe forever.

"So how can we release Michelle?" Bakura asked.

"I don't know, but I hope we find a solution soon," Yugi said.

"Aibou? What are you doing here?" Yami asked as he arrived," I thought you were asleep!"

"Well, you thought wrong," Yugi told him.

"Ryou, what is your business here?" Yani asked.

"." Was all Bakura's reply.

"Yugi, Yami, Bakura, Yani, what are you all doing here?" Tea asked.

"Exactly, why are you all here? Why are YOU here Tea?" Joey asked.

"Why are all of you here?" Tristan asked.

"Well, it's probably the same reason why all of you are here," Malik said.

"Yes, I am sure all of you worry for your friend, Michelle," Isis agreed.

"There is only one way to restore your friend, O Chosen One," Shadi said coming out of the ground.

"What is it? And stop calling me 'O Chosen One'!" Yugi shouted.

"The only way is." Shadi said.
