Chapter 2 -Yami vs. Bakura-
Isuku went to the place where the spectators could see the duelists duel. The duel that opposed Yugi and Bakura had already started. Bakura was getting beaten, badly.
"Go Yugi! You can do it!" yelled out Tea.
Almost everyone was cheering for Yugi. No one seemed to care about Bakura. Isuku took a deep breath.
"Go Bakura! Keep it up! Turn this duel to your advantage," she cheered.
Everyone looked at her. She blushed. Everyone is cheering for Yugi, she thought. Bakura's the one being beaten and no one's cheering for him. She continued to cheer for Bakura. As the duel progressed, Bakura turned the tables by summoning Dark Necrofear and then when it was sent to the graveyard, he placed the card Dark Sanctuary. Eyes and mouths appeared everywhere. In addition to that card, there was also the Ouija Board that had spelled out some letters. Bakura seemed to be the one that was going to win until Yugi drew a card and summoned a huge red dragon with two mouths. It was gigantic. Isuku blinked. She had seen that card already. It was a long time ago. Her head started to hurt and she closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she was in a different place.
She was in a kind of cell. There was some noise outside. She peeked out the tiny window and saw the same red dragon Yugi had drawn. It was with some other monsters. Suddenly, another monster appeared from the darkness. It delivered a powerful blow to the dragon that disintegrated. A huge explosion was all that she could hear. Her vision became blurry. Her body felt weak and she fainted.
When she opened her eyes again, she was lying on a bed in a room. She could see the faces of her friends above her. Using her elbows, she tried to get up but her head was spinning and she dropped back on the bed.
"You were watching the duel and you suddenly fainted when Slifer the Sky Dragon attacked." Yugi said. "Are you okay? We were worried."
"I'm okay. Thanks," Isuku replied weakly. "My head hurts a lot though."
"Then you should lay down and rest," cut in Kaiba as he shooed away everyone and headed for the door. He turned back. "You shouldn't overdo yourself. You just flew from America and it's at the other end of the world," he added, and then left, leaving Isuku alone in the darkness.
Isuku closed her eyes and let herself drift in the world of dreams.
-------------------- Sand. Sand was everywhere. She was in a desert. Had been for days. She was lost with nowhere to go. Guards had attacked her village and killed everyone. She was the only one who escaped. She had heard the guards mention the name "Seto". The attackers came from the north so the north was where she would go to carry out her village's revenge. She walked and walked and finally saw an oasis. She looked at her reflection. She had blue eyes and white skin.
Her parents told her that she was unique because Egyptians had black eyes and tan skin. They had asked a would-be sorcerer to read her future. He had said that there was a strong being in her soul that would eventually cause her death. That had scared her. The word had gotten out that she carried in herself a being of great power. Some kids had been afraid to go near her and others decided to hang around her, intrigued by the mysterious reading that she had gotten. She, at that time, had only felt weird and alone. She felt as if she was a monument because visitors would come and meet her after having talked to people who lived in the village.
Then came the day that the soldiers attacked, saying that they wanted the being with the ultimate power. They destroyed the whole village, spilling blood and spreading fires. She had run. Run away from the fire and the screams with only a brooch her parents gave her and a cloak. She ended up in a city, begging for water but the people living there were unaccustomed to see strangers that looked different than them. They had beaten her and thrown her on the streets to humiliate publicly. She then heard footsteps and a man calling out "Priest Seto". It was the one she had to take out her village's revenge on. She looked up to see the face of the person who destroyed her village. He had brown hair and blue eyes. He had just saved her from the men that were beating her. Then, all went black.
-------------------- Isuku woke up in the dark, thinking about the dream she just had. Somehow, it felt familiar and so real. She got out of bed, put on her dueling disk and got ready for a friendly match she was going to have against Yugi.
