Tis chapter 8, yay!

Disclaimer-I don't own. If I did, Yami, Bakura and Malik wouldn't have shirts. ^_^~*

_*_*_

Kinta started to pick the lock on the door, after a few seconds it opened. Kinta crept into Anthy's apartment, she saw Shadi sleeping on the pull out couch, she laughed to herself, and she made her way thought o Anthy's room. She left the door open, rule one of thieves-leave the door open. Then you can get out faster.  Anthy lay asleep on the bed in the corner, Kinta drew out a dagger, her favorite, a smooth sharp blade with a slight curve in it, the handle smooth ivory, with a few ornamental jewels, the grip was wrapped in a leather for better handling. Kinta used it for important things only, and killing Anthy defiantly counted.  She crept toward the bed silently, she may have been a priestess but she was also a practiced thief, it was quite a task getting around the pharaoh's night watchmen but she did that often in Egypt. Anthy lay face up on the bed Kinta decided where to strike, a hard bow to her chest, she would strike a major artery if not the heart itself, it would also puncture a lung, killing Anthy in maybe a minute-a very painful minute at that too.

 Kinta raised the dagger for the blow she brought it down with her full strength.

Clink.

It had hit something, something metal.

"Oh shit." Kinta knew that wasn't good thing.

 Anthy began to stir, Kinta backed away towards the door, still entranced, what had stopped her blow?

Anthy leapt from the bed; ready to attack-but it wasn't Anthy.

There where a black mark around her eyes, which looked snakelike, her hair was a silvery white like Anthy's she wore glove on her hands-gloves with blades on them. She wasn't Anthy.

"No, no, Sekhy priestess."

"Anshi!" Kinta knew who it was Anshi the thief, she'd lived in Egypt and had been sent to death by Yami after almost pulling off the biggest jewel heist ever.

" Ah, not trying to kill Anthy now are you? Because then I'd have to hurt you." Anshi said taunting, "that pretty knife says you were, that's not very nice." Anshi snarled then leapt at Kinta.

Kinta avoided the blades but was knocked to the ground; she got up quickly and prepared to strike. She lunged with the dagger, which Anshi blocked. The two girls exchanged blows, they were inches away but neither could land a blow they backed into the hall still sparring. But eventually a blow had to land; Anshi drew blood from Kinta's side with her clawed glove. And Kinta cut Anshi's arm, both wounds menial, both girls had fought with much worse, neither going to give up. Anshi pressed forward gaining ground.

"Quit it Kinta, you know I'll win."

"You sure 'bout that?"

"Completely."

"Don't be."

Anshi leapt at Kinta, and knocked her down, they landed hard on the floor knocking over a table in the process.

/ This is getting loud I don't have time for this; if Shadi and Anthy come I'm finished. /

 Kinta regained her ground, and backed away, "we'll have to finish this later Anshi, been fun. " Kinta drew a second dagger out, and threw it towards Anshi, it flew past her.

"Missed.?" Anshi snickered.

Glass shattered.

"No I didn't." Kinta ran past her and jumped out the window she'd just broken. She landed in a dumpster-hard, the second dagger laying a few feet away. She grabbed the dagger and leapt from the dumpster unharmed. She ran; she didn't want Anshi following, good thing Anthy's apartment was on the second floor, any higher jump she might have missed the dumpster, and if it had been six or more stories it would have killed her-hands down.

_*_*_

Kinta cursed everything as she entered her apartment, she hadn't killed Anthy, and they would be after her soon. As soon as Anthy and Shadi told the others she was dead-well not quite it just would be harder. Kinta didn't like harder.

Tomorrow they'd be ready, leisure time was over, Kinta had to attack if she wanted to win this, and she did. She wasn't going to let Yami beat her. He didn't have the right, egotistical bastard-just like his father.

_*_*_

Kinta and Bakura pulled away from the students in their science class to talk, it was a lab meaning everyone would be busy screwing around and asking the teacher, which chemicals were which, perfect time to talk.

"So what happened?" Bakura asked her.

"I meet someone unexpected." Kinta replied bitterly.

"Who?"

"Anthy's Yami."

"Which one?"

"What do you mean which one? She has more than one?!"

"Yep."

"Why did you not tell me this?!"

 "Didn't seem important I forgot, don't have a cow. So which one?"

"Anshi."

"You know Anshi huh?"

 "Who doesn't after what she pulled."

"Yeah she was good. She's usually up for a bit of mayhem just not against Anthy."

"Why did you not tell me these things?! You knew I was going after her!"

"Thought you could handle yourself." He smirked.

"You bastard. You're lucky I'm alive and she just scratched me not gutted me. You asshole. Hell she'd beat you, you know it too."

"True. "

"It's the end of it, she'll act now, which means we have to prepare."

Bakura nodded and waited for her to go on.

"I can trap Shadi, I have an idea, you need to be in my head again like with Malik."

"What's with him anyway?"

"Trying annoy me, I can hear him you know, if he didn't have those stupid gold rings on his neck I could have cut his throat normally and shut him up…"

"You now a lot, why most priests didn't know these things."

"I had too, you'd be surprised if I told you who I really was."

"You're still lying?" Bakura asked with a glare.

"No. What I've said is true, but ii haven't told you everything that's all."

"Care to spill?"

"You'll find out soon enough Bakura. " Kinta said smiling; "you'll find out soon enough.  Look we'll take Shadi when he probes my mind with the ankh. Led him along and trap him. Steal his items and get out, of course then they'll realize us, so we have to get out fast, recover and prepare to take Yami."

"Sounds standard."

"I have a feeling it'll happen today once school lets out you're in. waiting for Shadi, make up an excuse fro being gone to Ryou before then."

"Simple enough."

"Good. After school. Things are going down today. Countdown is almost up."

_*_*_

/you set? /

/duh Kinta. /

/so how's Malik? /

/ He's making evil eyes at me, it's kinda funny. /

/well if you're set then I'll go now, to the game shop. /

Kinta left school-Bakura in her head and headed toward the game shop.  Kinta walked thought the door to see Anthy and Shadi talking to Yami, Yugi was nearby along with Joey tea and Tristen all looking a little confused.

"Kinta!" Anthy said with a smile Kinta knew was fake." Just who we wanted. This is Shadi, the Keeper of the millennium items. We were hoping you'd let him enter your mind, and then he can figure out about your item. It's not like you have anything to hid so I assume that's aright?" Anthy asked, eyes challenging Kinta while she kept a calm Voice. Anthy knew if Kinta let Shadi in her mind then it would solve everything, and prove her evil, if she refused it'd prove her evil also. Anthy won wither way.

"Of course I will, anything to figure this al out. Hello Shadi." Kinta took Anthy's challenge and kept her act up not missing a beat, she shook Shadi's hand in greeting-after all 'she'd never seen him before.'

"What do I do?" Kinta asked Shadi politely.

""Just stay as you are, don't be surprised, Shadi raised the Ankh to Kinta's forehead, preparing to enter her mind.

_*_*_

Oh and I leave you. Evil I am.

In case anyone wonders I'm almost done, at my planning it'll have 12 chapters total, maybe 11 if I change

things a bit.

Kinta-when do I win?

Kil-who said you win?

Kinta-well I assume I do since it is my story….

Kil-it's not mandatory; I can kill whoever I want.

Kinta-but you're planning the sequel already!

Kil-doesn't mean shit. You might die, or lose or win or whatever I feel like.

Kinta-liar you wrote it already. I saw the draft.

Kil-but that's all I've written of it. Plus we have to tell everyone your secret still.

Kinta-forgot about that..

Kil-_-;;; that's half the reason you're here!! How could you forget?!

Kinta-*shrug*

Kil-oh well review folks! I'm writing chapter 9 as we speak do you ever want to see it? If so review!
