The Eighth Millennium Item: Chapter 5
A/N: Please review.
Disclaimer: Same thing as before.
~*~
I run outside, following the others through the maze that they call home, but to only stop dead in my tracks, pupils dilating in fear at the sight of the monster that's before me.
It's huge, about three times the size of the Winged Dragon of Ra, covered with black armor and sharp spines like a porcupine. It looks exactly like Ra, except bigger, a different color, and the spines.
It roars, making ears ring, and sends me stumbling back a few feet. "I HAVE TO FIGHT THAT?!" I shout, on the verge of having a nervous breakdown.
"Yeah... so do it, before we all end up dead, or are you too scared to?!" Kaiba says, shoving me towards the monster.
I glare at him as I stumble forward from the shove, swallowing my fears as I picture Slifer and transform for the first time on my own.
I barely finish when the monster attacks.
It blasts a golden beam, twice the size of Ra's attack, and I quickly dodge to the right, gathering my own attack as I do so, by thinking to attack. It just hits him...
and it doesn't affect him at all.
"I'm in trouble..." I mutter to my Yami, who's watching.
'Try your best, that's all you can do.' She says encouragingly, which doesn't make me feel any better.
It roars again, and takes flight, sending another blast my way...
I dodge quickly, only to get hit by the next attack that it does, roaring in pain as it hits home.
I attack with all my power, for it to only flinch, and then slam bodily into it, where the spines aren't.
It crashes hard to the ground, and I get up off it slowly, reeling from the impact of hitting it, and the ground, even though Ra absorbed most it, and smashing my tail hard on Ra while it's still down.
It immediately takes flight, seemingly uninjured by the damage that I've tried to do to it so far.
The monster roars, sounding enraged, and suddenly another monster hits me from behind.
I whirl around, only to get blasted by the Ra while seeing a Blue Eyes White Dragon also attacking.
I dodge the Blue Eyes's attack, only to get hit by Ra's...
this is a losing battle. I attack the Blue Eyes, feeling desperate, but it only dodges easily, and in the distance, I hear Yami Bakura's mocking laughter, obviously enjoying my desperation, and pain in this fight.
Ra flies up, and before I can react...
it slams into me heavily, crashing me into the ground, my breath suddenly getting very painful to draw as it's spines dig into my armored back.
Blue Eyes blasts right into my face, and I feel the darkness coming as the weights suddenly off...
and I welcome it.

~Dream Sequence~
The darkness swirls around, and I find myself floating in a dark void. I look around, feeling nervous to where I am.
"Welcome." A soft but determined voice says from the shadows, and to my surprise, Ishizu steps out of them.
I blink in surprise at the sight of her standing there, realizing that I must be dreaming.
"You are, but I came into them, I'm not a part of them, there are powers that are unknown to you that I have." She says mysteriously, but before I can ask more about it, she raises her hand to stop me. "That is not why I came here, there is more urgent things that need to be said other than my powers."
"Then why did you come here?" I ask curiously, looking around the creepy place.
"I came here to tell you something, I was wrong when I said that there were eight items, there are ten. The other two are hidden in the sands where structures never fall... even after all these years, and cats can be kings." She says with a mysterious smile. "There you will find a way to defeat Yami Bakura... good luck Sara." She says, starting to fade away.
"WAIT!" I shout desperately, running towards Ishizu, feeling helpless as she fades away. "What do they look like?!"
Despair fills me as Ishizu totally disappears, as does the last hope for the world,
and my hope to actually defeat Yami Bakura.

~End Dream Sequence~
I jolt awake, my ragged breathing filling the room with pain-filled gasps as I realize I'm getting a stabbing pain in my chest and lungs.
"That was pathetic, I could've done that better and I can't transform!" Kaiba says accusingly, glaring down at me like I'm a piece of crap.
I glare at him, what a way to wake up, and such a greeting to someone who just practically got killed to try to save him.
I look around, relaxing as I recognize the battered walls of the base, in a different room than before, this one with a bed I'm laying in. Kaiba disdainfully sitting in a chair next to it, obviously not happy about how the battle went.
The rest of the group comes rushing in, looking relieved to see me awake. "How are you doing?!" Yugi asks, before anyone else gets the chance.
I smile, despite the pain in my ribs, "I'm going to live, what happened? And how badly am I injured?"
Yami, walking to the other side of my bed, explains what happened. "Yami Bakura backed off... I think he was seeing how much power you had." Yami frowns at his words, looking worried about how Yami Bakura can be defeated. "About your injuries, you being Slifer helped, but you have cracked ribs and some puncture wounds from where that monsters spines dug into your back, some deep wounds from the attacks, and some bruises. I say in a month you'll be fit to fight again. Also, you were back as Sara when the Ra look- alike got off you."
"A MONTH?!" I yell, wincing at the pain from my ribs. "We don't have a month! Who knows what will happen then!"
"I'm sorry, but there's now way that you can't fight before then." Yugi says, sounding sad at the thought.
I look at the group. "There's something that happened in my dream... Ishizu came and told me that there were two more items in Egypt." I said, already figuring out the riddle.
I hear sharp intakes of breath from all around me, and hope now shining in everyone's eyes. "You mean... there still might be a way?!" Joey shouts, sounding like he really doesn't believe it. "What do they look like?!"
"I don't know," I say sadly, and everyone seems to deflate like a balloon at my words. "She never said, she faded away after she told me about the items, and where they are."
"Don't worry," Yami says with determination after the several moments of the room is filled with defeated silence. "We'll find them..."
"And we'll put an end to Yami Bakura's reign of terror." Yugi says determinedly, "or die trying."
