Dranzer's POV
I woke up and looked around myself. This land was familar, but...... No! Where was Kai? This is a desert! Where am I?! I must be dreaming, its the only explaination!
I look around myself once again, and saw a phoenix, a beautiful golden phoenix nuzzling her egg.
/Mother?/
The phoenix did not notice me, or if she did, I would be dead. No phoenix can withstand the power and anger of another phoenix, that is the only way we can die, by one of our own kind killing us.
I watched the golden phoenix, and saw a red phoenix land near the nest, with food.
The golden phoenix, whom I assumed was my mother, moved away from the nest towards the meat, while the red phoenix, who I also assumed was my father, went towards the egg to guard it.
I could not remember very much about my mother, or father, only their colours, and that is a constant reminder as their colours are both on me, whether in phoenix form or a mere human girl, they are always present.
Suddenly the veiw of the family blurred, and then vanished. I then saw another blur, which slowly turned into a clear picture, my parents were fighting against another pair of phoenix's. However neither group were getting the upper hand, though both groups were mortally wounded, and it was unlikely if either would last a few day's after. The rogue phoenix's fled, most likely believing that they would live to see another day. If only they realised.
My parent's went towards the egg, both looking at each other sadly.
/What are they going to do?/
They spoke to each other in a language I could not understand, my father picked up the egg in his claws, which I now gathered was myself, and flew into the air, my mother followed, but more slowly. Her left wing had been badly damaged during the fight, putting her through a lot of pain.
Once again the vision blurred, and vanished, only to be replaced by another one.
My mother was dying, ofcourse she was dying after that fight with the rogue phoenix's, however now she could not go on, her wing was too badly damaged to continue. She spoke to my father in the language I could not understand. My father looked stubborn, I guessed she wanted him to carry on without her and he was not happy with the idea. But the sadness in her eyes, I believe that is what made him go. He took to the sky, with my egg in his claw, and saw mother vanish, her ashes part of the desert plane. He let out a sad cry, letting other's of his kind that his mate was gone.
I was taken away, once more, to a palace, my father landed, ungracefully in Egypt. He too was nearing his end. The Pharaoh of the land walked towards him, he did not seem angry, nor displeased to see my father, the red phoenix.
'What brings you here, my friend?' The Pharaoh asked my father.
/Friend? My father knew the Pharaoh?!/
'I have come to ask you one last favour,' My father said, in the Pharaoh's own language.
'I would do anything for you,' The Pharaoh informed him.
'My friend, I am dying, my mate has already died and my time will soon be here. I wish for you and your people to look after the egg,' My father had place my egg, which looked like any other chicken egg, only a few times bigger.
'As you wish, however my people, nor myself, know how to take care of a phoenix,' The Pharaoh told my red father.
'I know that, however, she is the last of her kind. Her name shall be Dranzer, the fire phoenix,' My father proclaimed.
'I thought your mate was the only one who could see the future?' The Pharaoh asked him, for he was confused that my father would fore-tell such a thing.
'That was the last thing she saw,' My father informed him, sadly.
'How long?' The Pharaoh asked him. I was not sure if he was talking about my father's death, or my birth.
'She will be born along side your child, I know your wife is near to giving birth, it shall only be a few more weeks. And Dranzer will surprise you,' My father informed him, the Pharaoh nodded as my father bowed and took to the air, flying back to where my mother had died.
I don't think he made it. It was a long journey to the palace, and he was already losing his red colouring. My father made one last trip to the palace to let me live. And I have lived, I am here in 2003 with Kai by my side. I am happy to be here. So why am I going down memory lane? Why am i seeing the sacrifce my parents made for me? I think I have done very well.
Oh, here we go again, my vision had blurred........ Well, no reason to let anyone else know this trip.
I see myself, well, younger self, I am most likely only two years old, in human terms I would think. I do not know everything about phoenix's, just what the Pharaoh had told me, and I memories it by heart.
My two year old self, in phoenix form, I do not think that I have learned to.......... She changed into a human! The Pharaoh is surprised to see her..... Me, do such a thing!
'Well done Dranzer,' The Pharaoh used my name, then I turned back into a phoenix; 'You just need to keep trying,'
And I did, I kept trying until I could not try anymore. I was exhausted, so I flew to my perch and slept.
Once again I was transpoted to another time in my life, I was in my human form, wearing what all the other women wore, except that I wore a silver tiara, to show I came from an upper class family. I did not like silver, however the Queen did not wish for me to wear gold, as it was only Pharaoh's and there right hand men who wore gold.
'Then I too shall become the Pharaoh's right hand man,' My young self proclaimed, and the Queen smiled.
'I think you mean right hand Phoenix. But I would think that even if you did earn such a position that you would keep this,' The Queen told me, she was a kind lady, very caring.
'Why?' I asked her, her answer was a surprising one.
'Your mother had kept it here, telling me that it should be kept for someone special. I only understood what she meant by that now,' The Queen informed me. I was surprised and shocked, and so I kept the silver tiara.
I saw myself in the market place, once again by being transported there, and I saw a boy pick-pocket. The boy had white hair and pale skin, unusual in Egypt, so I followed him, I thought we were kindred spirits. I never knew what danager lay ahead of me. I had managed to lose my 'keepers'.
I followed the boy into a house, down an alley way. I snuck in to the house, and saw the boy, who had present his finds to an older man. I was impressed, it was a fair bit of gold that he held in his hands. However the older man was not as impressed as I.
'Your useless! Pathetic! I trained you to steal things like jewllery! Expensive things! Not gold coins!' The man hit the boy's hand, the gold coins fell to the floor; 'I have already told you that gold is not good enough! We need more!' Now he started to hit the poor boy, and this was making me angry.
I had never see violence before, I had heard stories from the soliders of there fighting tales, but this was not right! The man was hitting a poor boy! Unknown to me, I was radiating fire, and it was not the kind that burns. The man saw me, threw the boy down and walked up to me with big, long strides.
'So, what do we have here?' He sneered, and I was mad.
Rather than replying with a witty come back, or something sarcastic, like Kai does, I just attacked him, changing into my phoenix form and burned him to death. My first killing. Though I was doing something right, he was abusing that boy.
'What are you?' The boy asked me, once had returned to my human form.
'A phoenix,' I said, tears in my golden-honey eyes, and I fled. I could not believe that I had actually killed a man, he was a very mean man, but I killed him! I ran into my 'keepers' who took me right back to the palace.
Once again I was transported. I saw myself, with another woman, who was a bit older than me, I was most likely only sixteen at the time, I saw the boy once again, picking the pocket of some rich man. He spotted my younger self and narrowed his eyes, he moved back from the rich man and walked towards her. He circled her once, then bowed.
'I did not expect to see you here,' He said, sounding like Yami Bakura.
'And I did not expect to see you here. Who do you work for now, sir?' She asked him, and he laughed; 'Do not make fun of me sir,' She warned him and he smirked.
'Sir? I am a thief, surely you must realise that, this is our second meeting,' He told her; 'If you must give me a name, call me Bakra*,'
'Bakra, I am Dranzer,' My young half said to him.
'A fitting name for a graceful creature such as yourself,' Bakra flirted with her.
She appeared was wery, he had said so himself, he was a thief, although she had nothing valuable on her, apart from the tiara, she backed away from him.
'You do not trust me it seems,' Bakra said, with a smirk on his face again.
'Have you given me any cause as to why I should give you my trust?' She asked him, then he suddenly took her hand and placed it on her forehead; 'No!' She gasped, and he let go of her hand; 'Where is it?!' She demand.
'Some thief took it, before you were near me,' Bakra told me; 'Besides, you would look better in gold than silver,'
'It has sentimental value,' She informed him, unable to believe that she had lost the only thing that connected her with her parent's
'Really? Why?' Bakra asked.
'My mother made it for me,' My young half whispered, tears welled up in her eyes.
Bakra looked deep in thought for a moment, then he spoke; 'I will get your tiara back, as it means so much to you.........'
'But?' She asked, wiping her eyes. Tears were annoying, they only come to us as a human.
'But I would like one thing from you in return,' Bakra told her.
'As long as you get it back for me,' She told him, not caring what the price would be, she just wanted the tiara back.
'Good. Where do you live? I shall deliver it to you,' Bakra said, wiping some of my young half's tears away.
'Can't I met you here?' She asked him, knowing that he would never be allowed into the palace.
'No, I don't know when I will manage to get it. It would be easier for us both if I knew where you lived,' Bakra pointed out.
'You cannot get to me,' She told him and pointed towards the palace.
I saw his eyes widened with surprise, then he looked at her once more, trying to figure out what she could be if she lived in the palace.
'You could not be a solider, nor a guard, and yet there is no way that you could be a servent, you are too beautiful for that,' Bakra said, making her blush; 'What do you do in tha palace?'
'I do not do anything. I help the Queen get dressed, I deliver letter's to the Pharaoh if he is away, but I mainly just live there, I am friends with his son Yug**,'
'What?' Bakra seemed angry; 'You are to marry the prince?' He demanded to know.
'No. I am friends with the prince. I am a phoenix, I could only marry one of my own kind,' She said with a slight laugh.
'I will get you in the palace,' Bakra told me, as if a vow; 'I will give you back your tiara,'
'I do not believe you could get through.........' She started to tell him, but he no longer listened.
'I shall see you in a day,' Bakra said and kissed her hand, then he left, moving into the crowds, and she somehow lost him, even though her eye sight was better than any human.
My younger self returned to the palace, worried about Bakra. Once again I was transported, this was starting to annoy me. I would see what happened the next day.
Bakra had not come during the day, my young self must have thought that he would not come at all, and she was relieved with that.
'Your guards are not very tough,' Bakra's voice came through.
'What?!' My young self turned round to see Bakra on the balcony; 'How..... its impossible......'
Bakra held out her tiara, he walked towards her and placed it on her head. He then held her chin between his index finger and thumb, then kissed her. My half was surprised by what Bakra was doing, her eyes were wide, and he pulled back.
'Why did you do that?' She asked him and he smirked.
'My reward,' Bakra said, as if it was nothing important.
'You had better go,' She said to him.
'When will I see you?' Bakra asked her.
'In the prison if you do not leave now!' She exclaimed, and Bakra saw the worry that was in her eyes.
'Fine, I shall wish to see you in the market soon,' He said, however it was too late, the guards had found him.
They were surprised to find a thief in the palace, but even more surprised to find him holding my young half. Add to the fact that she was a phoenix it would have been a bigger surprise.
'Get your hands off Lady Dranzer!' The Captain of the guards ordered.
Bakra complied, however he moved swiftly and jumped of the balcony.
'No!' My young self cried out.
'Do not worry my lady,' The Captain of the guards came up to her, and pointed downwards. My half walked to the end of the balcony and saw Bakra, fighting the guards, and failing to win.
'No,' She whispered, a small tear escaped her eye, however the Captain of the guards did not see it.
I saw where Bakra was, in a cell. He was bleeding in different areas, however I knew, and so did he most likely, that they were just scraps, nothing to be alarmed of. His eyes moved from every cornor of of the prision, trying to figure a way out.
I now saw Bakra infront of the Pharaoh, myself was there as well, along with the Queen and Yug. But even now, Bakra looked right into the Pharaoh's eyes, he showed no fear to the man who ruled Egypt, and who could easily kill him.
'How dare you enter my palace, and then place yourself upon Dranzer,' Pharaoh's word echoed in the big room.
'I never placed myself upon Dranzer!' Bakra snarled, then he was whipped by a guard.
'I never asked you to speak. Nor do I wish to hear your voice!' Pharaoh said to him angrily.
'Lord,' My young self stepped forward and bowed, she went on her knees, right next to Bakra; 'Bakra is not at fault,'
'What?' Pharaoh looked at the my young self with surprise.
'My tiara was stolen, Bakra said he would find it for me,' She told him; 'He did not know when he would be able to get it, so he asked to know where I lived. I am sorry Lord. I was at fault. I told Bakra that I lived in the palace..........'
'She was against the idea of my entering the palace!' Bakra cried out, and a guard was ready to whip him, when the Pharaoh held up his hand.
'So, you were helping Dranzer. All right, but that does not explain why you were upon her, in her own room,' Pharaoh said, his eyes were on Bakra alone.
'I told her I wanted a reward. She never asked what it was. All I wanted was to kiss the human phoenix,' Bakra said and the Pharaoh, along with the Queen and Yug, were all surprised.
'How do you know.......?' Yug asked him.
'A few years ago she saved me from my father, she saw him hitting me, and became angry. She changed into her phoenix form when my father spotted her,' Bakra explained.
'I am sorry Lord,' She said, keeping her head down.
'So, you just kissed her. However you realise that Dranzer cannot fall in love with any mortal, and you realise that you still broke the law. Dranzer cannot get you off the hook. You broke into the palace and then you put yourself upon Dranzer, without her knowing what you were going to do! Suppose Dranzer was not a phoenix?' Pharaoh demanded an answer, but Bakra could not answer the question. He had been caught, for the first time in his life.
'Sire, what do you wish to do with him?' The Captain of the guards asked the Pharaoh.
'I think the boy needs to learn a hard lesson. He will be building the tomb for my death,' Pharaoh decided and my younger self gasped.
'Pharaoh, no......' She said, everyone heard it, the Pharaoh ignored it.
'Take him away,' Pharaoh ordered the guards, who went to pick Bakra and drag him to the dessert.
'I'm sorry,' She whispered to Bakra.
'I will see you again Lady Dranzer,' Bakra vowed, as he was dragged away.
I was left there, helpless. Dranzer, my young self, had found someone she cared about. So what happened then? How could they live together? These thought's entered my mind, as my vision blurred and I was taken somewhere else.
It was not a very long vision. Just Yug becoming Pharaoh, his father had died over a month ago. And myself? My young self had not forgiven Pharaoh for his ruling of Bakra. So much so that after Yug was pronouced Pharaoh, she transformed into her phoenix form and flew away.
* = Bakra, I know very bad name, just using Bakura's name and getting rid of the 'u'. I could not think of anything else!!!
**= Yug, another very bad name, Yugi minus the 'i'.
And I have lost the Kai and Bakura romance!!!!!!!!!! Nah, I haven't! Honest, I just wanted to get these two out of the way first.
Dranzer: Its still us?
Yami: Seems so, and why not?
Dranzer: Well, I thought it was a Kai/Bakura fic..........
Yami: Yes? So?
Dranzer: Never mind. Anyway, 2 thank you's for reviewing this time.
Yami: Huh, I thought so.
Dranzer: Shut up! Anyway, sexy yaoi-gal, thanks for the compliment. JadesRose, Blue Demon does not have a spell checker, it was deleted some time ago. Don't blame us!!!
Yami: Depends what she means by incorrect spelling.
Dranzer: Shut up! JadesRose is a sensible person/author. Two pounce on each other.
Blue Demon: I really hope to get some more reviews soon............ Oh well! Notices Dranzer and Yami fighting. Huh. Maybe I should let Kai out now..........
Dilandau: Blue Demon does not own Beyblade or Yu-Gi-Oh! Now, can I have my flame thrower back?
Blue Demon: All right. But you have to cook with it.
Dilandau takes the flame thrower and runs away.

Bakra complied, however he moved swiftly and jumped of the balcony.
'No!' My young self cried out.
'Do not worry my lady,' The Captain of the guards came up to her, and pointed downwards. My half walked to the end of the balcony and saw Bakra, fighting the guards, and failing to win.
'No,' She whispered, a small tear escaped her eye, however the Captain of the guards did not see it.
I saw where Bakra was, in a cell. He was bleeding in different areas, however I knew, and so did he most likely, that they were just scraps, nothing to be alarmed of. His eyes moved from every cornor of of the prision, trying to figure a way out.
I now saw Bakra infront of the Pharaoh, myself was there as well, along with the Queen and Yug. But even now, Bakra looked right into the Pharaoh's eyes, he showed no fear to the man who ruled Egypt, and who could easily kill him.
'How dare you enter my palace, and then place yourself upon Dranzer,' Pharaoh's word echoed in the big room.
'I never placed myself upon Dranzer!' Bakra snarled, then he was whipped by a guard.
'I never asked you to speak. Nor do I wish to hear your voice!' Pharaoh said to him angrily.
'Lord,' My young self stepped forward and bowed, she went on her knees, right next to Bakra; 'Bakra is not at fault,'
'What?' Pharaoh looked at the my young self with surprise.
'My tiara was stolen, Bakra said he would find it for me,' She told him; 'He did not know when he would be able to get it, so he asked to know where I lived. I am sorry Lord. I was at fault. I told Bakra that I lived in the palace..........'
'She was against the idea of my entering the palace!' Bakra cried out, and a guard was ready to whip him, when the Pharaoh held up his hand.
'So, you were helping Dranzer. All right, but that does not explain why you were upon her, in her own room,' Pharaoh said, his eyes were on Bakra alone.
'I told her I wanted a reward. She never asked what it was. All I wanted was to kiss the human phoenix,' Bakra said and the Pharaoh, along with the Queen and Yug, were all surprised.
'How do you know.......?' Yug asked him.
'A few years ago she saved me from my father, she saw him hitting me, and became angry. She changed into her phoenix form when my father spotted her,' Bakra explained.
'I am sorry Lord,' She said, keeping her head down.
'So, you just kissed her. However you realise that Dranzer cannot fall in love with any mortal, and you realise that you still broke the law. Dranzer cannot get you off the hook. You broke into the palace and then you put yourself upon Dranzer, without her knowing what you were going to do! Suppose Dranzer was not a phoenix?' Pharaoh demanded an answer, but Bakra could not answer the question. He had been caught, for the first time in his life.
'Sire, what do you wish to do with him?' The Captain of the guards asked the Pharaoh.
'I think the boy needs to learn a hard lesson. He will be building the tomb for my death,' Pharaoh decided and my younger self gasped.
'Pharaoh, no......' She said, everyone heard it, the Pharaoh ignored it.
'Take him away,' Pharaoh ordered the guards, who went to pick Bakra and drag him to the dessert.
'I'm sorry,' She whispered to Bakra.
'I will see you again Lady Dranzer,' Bakra vowed, as he was dragged away.
I was left there, helpless. Dranzer, my young self, had found someone she cared about. So what happened then? How could they live together? These thought's entered my mind, as my vision blurred and I was taken somewhere else.
It was not a very long vision. Just Yug becoming Pharaoh, his father had died over a month ago. And myself? My young self had not forgiven Pharaoh for his ruling of Bakra. So much so that after Yug was pronouced Pharaoh, she transformed into her phoenix form and flew away.
* = Bakra, I know very bad name, just using Bakura's name and getting rid of the 'u'. I could not think of anything else!!!
**= Yug, another very bad name, Yugi minus the 'i'.
And I have lost the Kai and Bakura romance!!!!!!!!!! Nah, I haven't! Honest, I just wanted to get these two out of the way first.
