Ok. I'd like to clear a few things off. One, the person that pushed her had the black hair and red eyes back in chapter three. Two, I'm sorry I haven't updated in such a long time; I had to study for midterms. And three, id like to thank coolies for helping me out on this!

Lia shut the door quietly, turning to the bloodstained spirit. She walked back over to the kitchen, grabbing the medallion. The spirit stayed silent, with an intense look on her face. There was a bit of silence. Lia spoke first.

"W-who are you?"

The spirit chuckled. "I am your dark side. Or as some would call it, yami." Lia stared at her for several moments. "I need to lie down." She headed for the bathroom, grabbing some aspirin and water, and then sat at the couch. The spirit chuckled. "Your medicine wont help, but what I'm going to tell you will."

Lia looked up. "Ok then. Tell the story."

As the young CEO was about to leave the building, his body swerved around the other way, and walked back to Lia's door. /What's with me? /

He thought as had his ear pressed against the door. Kaiba heard a chilling voice, the kind that makes the back of your neck crawl. As much as he hated eavesdropping at someone's door, he couldn't pull himself away.

His fingers were digging through his pockets to find his spy ear bit he made as extra turning tech class yesterday. Slipping it on easily, he pressed his ear back to the door, amazed about what he heard next.

~*~*~*~*~*~

The spirit took a deep breath. "Four thousand years ago, a great and powerful evil rose from the ashes of defeat. The return of the shadow realm arrived. Neither army nor sorcerer could defeat it. All of Egypt, and the world, were in danger.

In yet of all the sorrow and hunger a simple thief had stolen an item from the market. The thief had stolen but a powerful item. It gave them extraordinary powers. Unfortunately.. the army abused her into using them to defeat it. The evil was defeated, but the thief died of heart failure.

Her soul was cast into the item at its own will; to one day seek freedom from Egypt. Centuries past, and the soul waited, and waited. Until this day they have been waiting to be free." The spirit trailed off, finally ending her story.

Lia put her water down. "So you're, that thief? The one who saved Egypt."

"Yes, but I do not know whether our crossings where pure luck, or fate. That is for god to know."

Kaiba heard it all, the chilling voice, the story, everything. It was nerve racking. He got up hastily, grabbing the math book he almost forgot, and raced down the stairs. He had to tell Yugi about this. It was too much to handle, but if he told him, who knows what that.. thing will do!

When he returned to his mansion, he immediately sat at the guest couch. His hands kept shaking, and they felt cold. Kaiba looked at a nearby window, his reflection showing he was quite pale, even though he felt flushed from running. /That's it! I'm defiantly not drinking coffee next week. /

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Upon the following Monday, it wasn't the best Monday for Kaiba. He dragged himself into the school, looking quite tired, since he couldn't sleep over the weekend. He didn't pay attention to his surroundings, too tired to think, when something really flat and really hard hit him square in the face. He fell back, and before his mind fell into blackness, he asked himself / Why me? /

~*~*~*~*~

So? What did you think of it? Was it good? Please R+R!!! It would be so great.
