The Eighth Night
Chapter 4: A New Challenge
"Senui!" Sam danced over to the Scales and started to shake them. "Come on out, you bail of rotting hay!" The spirit of the Scales, who looked strikingly similar to Shadi, appeared with a scowl.
"What did you just call me?" he growled.
"I called you a bail of rotting hay," she answered with an evil grin. He got the idea, and the match began.
"You, my dear, are an overgrown weed of an Easter bunny."
"You are as creative as a piece of petrified wood."
"Sam, you are so disgusting that not even hyenas would eat your rotting carcass."
"You are a hunking glob of camel snot."
"Daughter of he who bathes in dung!"
"Neat freat!"
"You running out of insults?"
"Not yet. You are the cud from a goat who ate camel dung, your mother was a lard-eating slug, and your father smells of vomit and jackal dung!"
"…"
"Give up, Senui?"
"… Meanie."
The match was over, and Sam had won! She gave her opponent a hug, and after a moment, he accepted the gesture. Just then, Ashali, Sam's mother, called for her.
"Sam! Come down here! Your uncle wants to discuss something with you! Bring the items with you!" Ashali yelled.
"Coming Mom!" Sam turned to the spirits. "You'd better get back to your items. I've got to bring them downstairs with me." The spirits returned to their items, and Sam carried them downstairs and placed them on the table. "What do you want to say to me?"
"Sam," Shadi began, "this is an important matter. I won't be the guardian of the items forever, and I don't have any descendents to pass on the items to. I have discussed this with your mother, and we would both be honored if you would take up the position as the next guardian of the items."
Sam was in complete shock. She had always dreamed of spending the rest of her life with the items, but never believed that her wish would be granted. She eagerly agreed to the deal.
"This won't be an easy task. First, I'm going to have to take that Millenium Seal away from you, since it is not one of the Guardian's items." She handed her uncle the Seal. "You will go through a series of tests, starting with an isolation from the items. For the next two months, you will live at the Duelist Kingdom with Pegasus. However, you won't be alone." He motioned to the items. "Choose one of them to take along with you." Sam thought carefully, then picked up the Ankh. "You have the rest of the weekend to prepare for the task. Your mother has already alerted the school, but you will have to tell your friends about your departure. Do you understand?"
Nodding, she placed the Ankh around her neck. She could feel Ankhkare entering her mind. She smiled as his energy filled her body and his spirit opened a door in her mind. She turned to her uncle.
"I'm ready to face anything that comes, whatever the dangers may be."
Ending Note: Sam- I'm with Ankhkare! I love you, KKR! *hugs KKR*
KKR- *choking* No … *cough* No problem. *cough* Please stop choking me!
Sam- *lets go* Sorry. Please, review this story!
