How Things Were (for lack of a better title)

Blink.
'What just happened?'
Blink.
A young black haired woman sat on her couch with a completely blank look on her face. She brought her hands to her face and rubbed her temples.
'I remember sitting down and turning on the TV. but that was an hour ago. I don't remember a thing I did during the last hour.'
Isis got up and walked to her kitchen. She turned on the sink and splashed cool water on her face in an attempt to clear her mind, then she poured herself a glass. Sitting at the dinner table she leaned her tanned cheek onto her hand.
'This has been happening a lot. I'll just be doing something and then hours later I'll come to and won't remember a thing. Just like a black out, but different. like I'm being controlled.'
"Argh!" She slammed her fist on the table. This was too frustrating. Isis knew she had a lot to deal with as it was, what with her brother, the god cards and such. And now she had this to add to the list. This type of thing had never happened before, her "black outs" were recent happenings.
Isis sighed, thinking. She remembered that sometimes she had used to think there had been another presence in her trying to take control, but she would just push the feeling away. That had been way back when she had received the millennium tauk, and the feeling had stopped until now. Now when she had so many other problems to deal with.
Maybe that old presence she had thought she felt was back and that was what was taking control of her. If that was so the presence must have grown stronger. Maybe this all had to do with her millennium tauk.
Isis thought about that for a moment and then slammed her right fist into her palm as a realization hit her.
"That's it! This has to do with my tauk. The presence, the black outs. I must have some type of a yami or a soul trapped in my body," she muttered to herself. Then she frowned as she remembered what kind of trouble her brother's yami caused. For all she knew during her "black outs" she could be going on shooting rampages or blowing up buildings.
'I'm going to have to learn to control this yami or I'm in big trouble.'
Isis yawned and rubbed her blue eyes. It was late, so she decided it was off to bed with her. She would have time to deal with this in the morning, it's not like anything could happen over night.

The little black radio next to Isis's bed turned on signaling that it was 6:30 AM and time to get her ass out of bed.
Isis rolled over, slapped the off button and sat up groggily. She pushed on her white slippers and looked out the window, her eyes unfocused. Rain. Just what she needed when she had to walk to work.
Grumbling Isis shuffled to the bathroom to take a shower. On went the hot water and in went Isis. This always helped to put her in a better mood. A half-hour later a happier girl rung out her long hair in front of the mirror and brushed it. Then she scrubbed her teeth and left the bathroom.
After her usual waking up ritual Isis always had coffee before she left for work, so she headed to the kitchen and started the coffee pot. While she waited for dark liquid to fill her mug, Isis decided to try and contact with the presence inside of her. She had seen the way Yugi and his Yami communicated, they seemed to think at each other sometimes rather than just talk.
/Hello?/ She thought uncertainly at whatever was inside of her. Since there was no response Isis decided to try again, but this time maybe more persistently.
/Hello. Hello, answer me!/ She thought forcefully. A few seconds passed before she got a reply.
//I was hoping you would leave me alone.// The voice seemed gruff, but feminine. Isis hadn't expected the spirit to be so hostile. It intimidated her a bit, well maybe a little more than just a bit.
/Who are you?/
//None of your business.// Isis's eyes went wide with anger. It seemed to her like she had a right to know who this person.er. spirit was. They were using her body after all.
/Tell me who you are!/ Isis mentally growled.
//You really want to know?// The presence baited Isis.
/Yes./ She replied eagerly.
//Too bad, 'cause I don't even know.// Isis scowled, well her tauk could solve that problem easily.
/If you told me where and when you were from I could show you with my Millennium Tauk. It shows the past and future. Come out and I'll show you./
//I don't think so, you're coming in.// Isis felt a strange pulling sensation somewhere inside of her as her soul was taken somewhere deep inside of herself. The next thing she knew Isis was in a large, dimly lit room. The torches burning on the walls gave the room an eerie felling that could make person's skin crawl. This place seemed to be in close resemblance to a dungeon. There were hieroglyphics carved into the walls along with strange pictures. In the center of the place stood a girl. She had a very dark and mysterious aura that radiated around her.
The young looking woman appeared almost identical to Isis, only minor differences separated them. The spirit's eyes were harder and looked almost psychotic, her hair was far less tame, and she seemed to stand taller than Isis. She stared hard at Isis before walking up to the girl and placing her palm on Isis's forehead.
//I'll find out my past without your pitiful help. You do not need to know who I am before I myself remember.// Isis could suddenly feel pain pulsing from the spirit's hand. She collapsed unconscious to the ground. Yami Isis then took over the lighter girl's body. The girl's face showed curiosity, fear, and excitement as she took off the necklace and looked at it.
'So this is what I've been sealed in all this time.' She looked at the tauk a moment longer before replacing it on her neck.
"I guess it is time for me to find out about my pasted in ancient Egypt." murmured Yami Isis. She scrunched her eyes closed as blinding light from the tauk engulfed her. The young woman was no longer in Isis's kitchen with the dripping coffee pot, she was now in a time far before that.
