"There. You're ready."
The trio of Ryou, Yugi and his pharaoh had returned to Ryou's house. The pharaoh explained that Ryou's body needed to be in a quiet, isolated place in order for his mind to enter another realm. Thusly, the only logical place to go was Ryou's bedroom.
The pharaoh drew the Eye of Ra on Ryou's forehead, symbolizing his connection to ancient Egypt. The Millenium Ring was tied around his neck, firmly resting in the center of his chest.
"Now," said the pharaoh, "You must empty you mind and will your soul to leave this physical plane. You must have complete desire to be where ever the Ring's dark spirit resides. The magic locked inside will take you there. Then it will be up to you to bring him back."
Ryou nodded, gulping. He was afraid, Yugi could see it in his eyes. He was so terribly afraid for himself and for his Yami that he might just cry any moment. And yet...
He was doing this.
Ryou had surpassed his natural need to stand back and let a real hero step forward. He was timidly, unselfishly embracing the burden of a warrior who did what needed to be done. Not for himself, but for someone he deeply cared about.
And Yugi admired that.
"We should so, so it'll be easier for him to concentrate," said Yugi.
The pharaoh nodded. He said to Ryou, "We'll be just outside that door."
"Right." Ryou said with false confidence, and lay down on the bed. Yugi and his dark side left.
Ryou closed his eyes and tried to think of nothing but his Yami...
