Wish Upon a Shooting Star

Disclaimer: You know, I know and everyone knows that I don't own Yugioh. So let's not go sue the poor exhausted author k?

I apologize for the delayed update; you see I was suffering from extreme inspiration withdrawal, in simple English-MAJOR WRITER"S BLOCK!!!! Please don't hurt me pink fluffy elephants I've tried forcing myself but in the end all that happened was me staring at the story for about 2 secs before doing something else. Like learning to drive^^

I really have to stop writing at times like 1 AM...I can feel my sanity slowly drifting like a distant dream. Let's just hope this chapter doesn't get to weird.

Ok, large cup of tea by my side and music in the background. Let's get on with the story!

~~

Yami and Serenity rushed to the palace. Two guards stopped their entrance. "Get out of the way morons!" shouted Yami. "Sorry but you cannot go in without verification." Said the guard

"Are you blind? I am the crown prince Yami!"

"Sure sure! And I'm the Pharaoh. Get out of here you punk." Shouted the other

"You shall pay for your insolence." Yami took out his puzzle; with mind crush he threw the two guards into unconsciousness. "Sorry," muttered Yami as he grabbed Serenity's hands and they both ran up the stairs. They ran around looking for Yami's father, there was only one place left, the pharaoh's den.

~~

"What is it you wanted Teana dear?" asked the pharaoh.

"It's something very simple, I'm sure Pharaoh you can comply with my wishes."

"Whatever is it dear?"

"Your death." Teana took out a dagger that she had used to stab Yami.

"NO!" shouted Yami as he tackled Teana. Teana dropped her dagger as she fell to the floor and it slid to the other side of the room. Teana growled as she got back up, she attacked Yami and the two fought.

Serenity ran forward to check on the pharaoh. "Are you ok sire?"

"Why are you so worried about me? I've treated you nothing less then horribly, I even had someone try to kill you!" said a confused pharaoh.

"That's all in the past your majesty. We must get to safety!" she helped the pharaoh up and they ran towards the entrance. Teana had managed to throw Yami off of her; he went straight into a wall and passed out. In his last moments of consciousness he saw Teana run after Serenity and his father, then all went black.

~~

Yami woke up at the sound of someone calling his name. The room slowly came into view as Yami noticed that he was no longer in his father's den but against the wall in the throne room.

"You're up!" cried Serenity as leaned her head against his shoulder. Yami smiled but his smile disappeared as soon as it came. He noticed that Serenity's hands were tied behind her back.

"What's going on?" he asked. He attempted to unbind Serenity's hands when he found out his own were tied as well. "What happened?"

"Well after you passed out...

Flashback***

"Come back here!!!" shouted Teana as she ran after Serenity and the Pharaoh.

They both ran as fast as they could till the Pharaoh tripped and fell to the ground. "Leave me. You don't need me to burden your means of escape. You must get out of here as quickly as you can."

"Don't talk like that sire." Said Serenity in a very serious tone. "You are Yami's father, and I respect you as much as my own father. Besides, even if you were a stranger, I would not leave you with that madwoman. We should leave now before she gets here." And with that Serenity helped the pharaoh to his feet and they were once again running.

Though they could not see her, they could hear her voice everywhere. "Shame on you Serenity, leaving Yami behind. You can run now, but if you want to see Yami alive again, come to the throne room. If not... well you know what will happen."

Serenity's eyes widened, "Yami.." She started running back towards the throne room when she felt someone grab onto her arm. "Serenity," said the pharaoh. "Be careful, I wish to see the day of your wedding with Yami." He said a sincere smile over his face.

"Thank you." Serenity said, then she turned and continued to run, 'Please be ok Yami.'

~~

Teana paced around the room as she observed the unconscious Yami. He laid sitting up with his head slumped over. "Tsk tsk Yami. You know you could have been so happy had you just married me. You would still have become pharaoh sooner or later. Oh well, I guess I'll have to kill you now." She said as she placed her hand over his cheek.

"Get your filthy hands off of him Teana!" shouted Serenity as the doors of the throne burst open.

"About time you go here." Teana said with a very calm tone. "For a minute there, I thought you really would have left Yami here for your own safety."

"Let him go"

"For shame Serenity. Have you forgotten who is the one in control right now? You are no threat to me, and you have no power to demand things from me especially when I have these."

Serenity's eyes widened when she saw what Teana held. The two remaining magical stones that her father had given her, rested in Teana's hand. Teana closed her palm as she took the stones and put them back in their pouches. She then went up to one of the bowl of fire. She tossed the stones into the raging flames. It hissed and with a cloud of black smoke and the stones were no more.

"You dirty playing slut! How dare you steal my things! First Yami, then my stones, have you no shame?"

"Why should I? I did nothing wrong, you are the one that used your magic to bewitch Yami. If anyone is the dirty playing slut, it should be you. Now back to business. You want to save Yami don't you? Here's the deal. A life for a life, I am willing to take you in place of Yami. After all, even the Pharaoh would like to save you after your "heroic" act back there."

Serenity hesitated. She looked at Yami's unconscious form. She took a deep breath, "Why?" she asked.

"Why what?"

"Why are you doing this? If you loved Yami you would know that when you love someone you would never do anything to hurt the people you love."

"I did love Yami. But he loves you, and I won't let that happen." "Fine. But you must promise to let Yami go."

"Of course of course. You have my word." She said. Teana summoned two of her own bodyguards and they tied Serenity with her hands behind her back and shoved her next to Yami. "One thing Serenity. You should know that I am NOT a girl of her word." She smirked

Serenity's eyes narrowed. "You lied to me! How dare you go against your word! You are nothing but a dishonest bitch. If anyone's the witch here it's you." Serenity struggled against the string but she only succeeding into making the rope cut into her wrist causing a small and slow stream of blood to run down her palm. "You will be destroyed, even if it's the last thing I do."

End Flashback***

"And that's what happened." Finished Serenity.

"You should never have come back Serenity. You should have known that Teana is a cunning old hag."

"Tsk tsk. Yami you should know better then to talk behind my back. Egypt is slowly being taken over. As soon as my father's army enter Egypt with no one to control the situation, your father's rule will soon collapse and a new reign will rule over Egypt." Said Teana as she strode into the room. "But first, I think I will deal with this one first."

The dagger gleamed in Teana's hand. "NO!" shouted Yami. Teana hauled Serenity to the middle of the throne room. "You have given me much trouble Serenity. Now allow me to return the favor." With that Teana slashed the dagger over Serenity's arm. "You know, Yami only loves you for your beauty. I wonder what he will think of you when I drag this all over your lovely face, let's see if he still thinks you were the radiating beauty you once were."

"You leave her alone!" a voice shouted from the door. Teana looked over to be faced with High Priest Seto and the old pharaoh. "We have already destroyed your army, your father was killed upon sight. It's all over Teana. I have known of your plans for a while now, I simply haven't had any evidence, but I planned ahead anyways."

An evil grin made it's way to Teana lips. "You think a pathetic guy like you and an old geezer can defeat me? You truly underestimate me. I always have backup." The dagger went from Serenity's face to Serenity's neck. "You know I could just slowly drag this over her neck instead, and slowly watch as the blood runs from her neck."

Horror filled everyone's eyes. "Now if you don't want to see her die I suggest you foolish people to get out of my way."

"Give it up Teana, you will never win." Yelled Yami.

"Wrong! As long as I have Serenity as my hostage, she will forever be your biggest worry. I know you well Yami. You would rather give up your crown for the sake of this girl. That is your weakest point prince." She laughed out loud

"Stop it!" said Serenity. Teana stopped midlaughter.

"How dare you speak!" as the blade pierced a bit into Serenity's neck.

Serenity whimpered at the pain. "Yami, Pharaoh and Seto. I wish not be a burden. I thank you for all the care you've given me the whole time while I was here. Your kindness, I will only be able to repay you in another life. I am sorry Pharaoh that I cannot fulfill your wish" With that Serenity pushed the dagger across her next.

"SERENITY!!!" Tears poured out of Yami's eyes as he saw Serenity's lifeless body fall to the ground in a pool of her own blood.

Teana stood there in shock. She looked at the body in front of her.

"Arrest Teana, the Pharaoh will decide what to do with her later." Commanded Seto, he then ran to untie Yami.

Yami collapsed beside Serenity's body. "Serenity," he whispered, as he moved the stray hair away from her white face, "please wake up. It's all over the nightmare is finally over. Please wake up." He said as he shook Serenity trying to wake her up. "You promised that nothing would ever separate us again. We still have a long path before us. Don't leave me Serenity. Please wake up." He sobbed as tears kept dripping down his face and onto her face. However this time now matter how many tears he shed, he could not wake her up. "SERENITY" cried Yami.

The others could do nothing but stand by her body as they slowly wept in sorrow.

~~

"By the order of the Pharaoh, you Teana have been proven guilty of treason against the Pharaoh's rule and, the murder of the prince's fiancee." Proclaimed Seto, "The punishment is death."

"What? You can't kill me! Don't you know who I am? I am the Princess Teana, you better let me go if you want to see the sun rise again. When my family finds out they'll kill you, all of you!"

"Guards, take her away!" he commanded as he watched the screaming girl dragged out of the room. Worried, Seto looked over at Yami.

Yami watched everything through glazed eyes. He was happy that Teana finally got the fate she deserved, but there was still Serenity. Nothing he could do would make it possible for him to see her smile again, to hear her laugh to be with her through happiness and sadness. Yami's vision was completely clouded by unfallen tears.

~~

Yami entered a dimly lit room. There in the middle of the large room was a small platform covered in small colorful Egyptian flowers. In the center of the platform lay Serenity. She wore an outfit made of white silk; her hair was adorned with the most beautiful golden accessories. Her hands were folded across her waist as she lay amongst the flowers with her eyes closed.

Yami sat down next to Serenity's body, "My love I am sorry that I could not protect you. If it was not for me you could be living your happy goddess life. Where are you now? Back up in heaven? Oh Ra I miss you so much." As tears fell from his eyes again.

"Yami," came a voice

"Serenity!" Yami's eyes widened to watch Serenity.

"I know you miss her Yami," said Seto as he stepped out of the shadows onto the platform next to Yami "but do you think she would like to see you like this? She sacrificed her life so you could live a happy life. Do not make Serenity's sacrifice in vain."

"I do miss her ever so much Seto."

"I know. We all do. Serenity was a kind hearted soul." He said as he placed a hand on Yami's shoulder.

"Thank you Seto. I feel better now."

"You're welcome Yami. I'll leave you to have some private time with Serenity"

"Thank you"

Yami took Serenity's hand after Seto had left. "Serenity you have taught me so much. No one has showed me as much about love and courage as you have. I will never love someone as much as I loved you my shooting star. I know now that I am never alone, because you live forever in my heart.

END!

I can't believe I wrote that. I can't believe I killed Serenity. Please don't kill me *hides from murderous glares* I just sort of wanted something different from a happy ending. So sorry, I felt really guilty writing that part myself. I guess I could have used the legendary authoress powers to bring her back, but this was getting too long already ~_~

I wonder how many people thought the voice was actually Serenity. Oh well, I would like to thank all those who have read and reviewed this story. I would also like to thank those that read and didn't review as well.

I have no idea when my next two stories will come out, you know what is coming up and I might decide to finish off before posting so it doesn't interefere with you know what. All I can tell you are the titles.

I'm thinking of starting my new one first, because I already started it, my sequel will be out as soon as I write up the first chapter ^^

The new Seto story is named: In the Name of Love (Is already out ^^ I've decided to work harder to get it finshed b4 sch...you know what.)

The sequel is: Forever and For Always.

Look out for these two in the near future ^_~

Thanks all for reading. Love y'all and hope to hear from you again soon ^^
