"Yugi! How long have we been in this heat hole?! My watch and everything went on the fritz as soon as we got here!" complained Mai loudly.
Yugi glanced over thoughtfully, "Half an hour perhaps. Don't worry Mai. We're almost there."
Up ahead of the weary travelers lay a palace of grand standards to the ancient Egyptians. Yugi found himself wondering how he was going to get inside the palace, but found his yami was there to help.
//The Millennium Puzzle will guide us, aibou, don't worry. We shall use its powers to passively want to talk to the pharaoh. As long as my past self doesn't see us as a threat, he'll let us in.//
/Thanks Yami. I can't wait to get home. I'm sure the others really want to get back as well./

(Tetra's POV)
//Hey, Tetra, why do you have a sign written on your soul room door? And what language is it in?//
/Hm? It would be in English, what does it say?/
//I can't read your language.//
/Let me see it then./
I was transported to my soul room hallway and to my door. It did have a sign on it. A yellow one that read:
Warning, no trespassing, violaters will be shot, survivors will be shot again.
I laughed at it. It really did reflect my personality. I told her what it said, but it didn't click. She had no idea what I was talking about. I gave up and tuned back into Bakura-chan and Mariku.
We had been walking around for a while and I was becoming rather bored to say the least.
"Isn't there something we can do? I'm bored."
Mariku looked at me and was going to say something, but stopped mid sentence as suddenly some loud musical instument was played. Then there was more loud noise and it sounded like an entire parade was going to come through the market place.
The racket made by this unheard of musical instrument was deafening!
"What in the name of Ra is going on?!" Bakura-chan yelled over the noise, though I could barely distinguish his voice over the music.
He gave up and grabbed both Mariku and I by the wrist and went around a corner to see what the noise was all about.
Well, my first guess was correct. It was a parade. But for the pharaoh!
As Bakura-chan realized this he suddenly turned the other direction and took off running to who knows where. Mariku urged me to follow Bakura-chan, so I did, and Mariku followed me. I didn't really want to stay and listen to the loud racket that was suppossed to be music!
We reached the outskirts of the market place once again, but on the other side away from their little hideout. The road was in rocky crumbles, which was strange because there was little rock in the desert. I followed the road with my eyes and it lead to a pyramid in construction. Typical. The rocks must have been dragged.
Out of breath and panting, we hid in the shade of a pile of high stacked blocks. There were workers working on the pyramids, only Ra knows how they can stand the heat if I can't.
Suddenly, I heard someone. Or rather, two someones running down the road. I listened closly, they were a little far off...
"They are so gonna pay!"
"Wait a second, Bakura, what will happen if we do kill our past selves."
The footsteps both stopped running and started walking. Nevertheless, they were still coming in this direction. And they were Bakura and Malik! Malik sounded different, but I didn't worry about that. I kept silent and pretending not to notice I heard the two. Bakura-chan and Mariku didn't notice anything, and were drinking water, discussing the pharaoh or some such topic.
/Maybe... if I just sneak away, they won't notice. Then I can get back to Bakura, and won't have to worry about these two carrying me around like a peice of property that belonged to them. I don't belong to anyone./
//I agree.//
/Did I need you to agree?/
//Well, I was only saying that.//
I rolled my eyes and slowly got up and shifted around to the other side of the block.
"Hey! Where do you think you're going?!" Bakura-chan yelled at me.
"I, uh-"
"You can get back over here!" he demanded pointing towards the ground next to him. I slowly started to walk over there, but that wasn't what I was planning at all. I could still here the real Bakura and Malik drawing closer, even within shouting distance. I listened carefully. Yes! I could yell to them and they would here me.
I looked up at Bakura-chan , still a good three feet away. I smiled, then took off in the opposite direction.
"Come back here, you sand flea! You're mine!" Bakura-chan yelled and chased after me.
Mariku did the same. There was no way I could outrun them in this heat, and I knew it.
"Tetra, now stop being hasty, its futile to run from us. You won't get away wether you like it or not." said Mariku, who was suddenly running at my side.
"No! I'm not yours or anybody's!" I screamed, pulling ahead in speed.
"Bakura! Malik!" I yelled at them in the distance.
/They just HAVE to see me!/
//In the name of Ra, they had better.//
"TETRA!" Bakura yelled back. Suddenly taking off in a sprint towards us again.
Finally! First set to going home and everything being normal again!
Suddenly I was pulled down from behind, landing in the hot sand, which nearly scorched my skin. I wanted to get back up immeadiatly, but I Bakura-chan was on top of me, pinning me into the burning hot sand.
"Get off of me!!"
"No, you'll pay! This will teach you not to try and escape again!"
A scream of pain was heard and a shadow suddenly loomed over Bakura-chan and me.
"Oh, but she has already escaped." said Yami Bakura in a dead-serious evil tone.

Cliffhanger major! Mwhahahaha!
I spend my days trying to get my homework done. When on the computer I know I should be working on my stories. But I don't always do that. I usually get to that eventually and only if I get around to it. ^_^;; I'm sort of taking a break from my work, but I write better when I'm relaxed, anyways.
Now what should happen in this story? I have no clue, seriously!
WRITER'S BLOCK, help me! You don't want to loose the cliffhanger to a writer's block, ne?
