Night, Malik's room, Egypt

Malik lay on his back on his bed, his arms folded behind his head. Yami Malik is out in spirit sitting on the very foot of the bed. Malik said nothing, and finally Yami Malik spoke up.

"I cant help to notice Malik, that you attitude lately has been very.distant."

Malik sat up. Now that it was a few years later since all those times with Yugi and the gang, Malik and his Yami had become friends, dispite the fact that Yami Malik had killed Bakura and attempted to destroy everyone eles. That was all behind them, and Yami Malik had softened a bit after a lot of convincing and help from his hikari. Malik looked at him, then to the floor in his room

"I cant stop thinking about that iteam I bought for Rikaju. Its so strange how the iteam feels so fimilar."

Y. Malik nods. "I too sensed something fimiliar about that iteam. Emence amounts of power where given off of it, and directed to me. Usually only millennium iteams can do that."

After those words, Malik didn't say anything. Yami Malik sighed and returned to the soul chamber in the millennium rod. Malik layed himself back down in his bed and shortly fell asleep. But his sleep wasn't peaceful, not peaceful at all. That night, Malik had a horrible and disturbing dream.

Malik's Dream

Malik is standing in the middle of no where. His millennium rod is gone, and the darkness around him seems to swallow him whole. Suddely a bright light blinds him. Out of the light comes Rikaju, though she didn't look right. Her hairstyle was different, and her eyes looked very sinister. Malik stepped back, but as he did, he found himself on the edge of a cliff.

The rusty old iteam, the one that Malik had bought for Rikaju, appeared out of no where. Suddely it begins to glow and the rusted covering begins to crack. Malik stares at it, bewilded and confused. But suddenly the evil Rikaju turns back to the Rikaju he knew well. As the iteam glows, it begins to swallow Rikaju up. "Help me Malik! Help!!!!" Malik looks at her horrified, and begins to run towards her. "No rika!" But before he could get to her, it was to late. The rusted form cracks and begins to fall off, but before Malik could see what the iteam was.

He woke up. Malik sat on his bed, confused and disturbed. He shook his head, then layed back down, and soon he fell into a deep sleep, and this time he was sleeping comfortably.
