Chapter 4: Awaken Black Magician Girl!
After telling Mana about their plan to help her Pharaoh asked Kikhara to escort Mana to the Shrine of the Gods out near the outskirts of town, and that he'd meet up with them there. Kikhara nodded and told Mana to follow her.
Kikhara brought Mana to her chamber and gave her a brown cloak so that they wouldn't attract attention in the public. They quietly sneaked out of the palace and made there way through town. As they walked through the streets they watched as men tried to sell crops, children playing and women drawing water and doing chores. It had been a long time since Kikhara had last seen the people and homes outside of the palace. She still remembered the it when she was a child, her parents had told her that they'd found her near the temple of Ra, and had taken her in as their own.
As Kikhara reflected on her past Mana asked her if her childhood was a happy one. Kikhara smiled and closed her eyes and told Mana that she could still remember her early childhood days when she used to be picked on because she was slightly different from all the other Egyptian children. When she was older about sixteen or so she used to sneak into the palace garden at night and sit by the small pond, which emptied into a river. Mana giggled at Kikhara's actions when she was young, and Kikhara laughed along with her.
They reached the shrine and not to long after they got there Pharaoh arrived with Priest Seto as well. What they had decided to do was extract Mana's ka and have her merge with it. Mana stood in the center of the beautifully engraved seal on the floor. Priest Seto stood on the outside of the circle and pointed his millennium rod at Mana. Mana closed her eyes as the millennium rod glowed and a ka of a monster looking similar to Black Magician appeared above her. The Pharaoh and Kikhara each stood on one side of Mana and closed their eyes. As their millennium items glowed a bright light filled the room. When the light disappeared, a glowing orb hovered above the Pharaoh and Kikhara.
"Now....awaken..." Kikara began.
"Black Magician Girl!" said the Pharaoh.
As they said that the orb materialized into Mana dressed as Black Magician Girl. She hovered down to where the Pharaoh and Kikhara were standing and thanked them and Priest Seto. Suddenly a purple orb appeared beside Black Magician Girl, and turned into Black Magician. Black Magician smiled at the Pharaoh and Kikhara.
"Thank you my Pharaoh and you too as well Queen Kikhara. Now I can be with my master all the time." Said Black Magician Girl.
And with that she and the ka form of Priest Mahado disappeared. Just then, a guard from the palace rushed in the shrine in a panic.
"My Pharaoh! There are ka's going wild in the village! People are in a panic!!!" cried the guard.
"Priest Seto, please take Queen Kikhara back to the palace. I will deal with this problem myself." Said the Pharaoh.
"Of course sire," said Priest Seto.
"Yami..." said Kikhara
The Pharaoh turned as Kikhara walked up to him and kissed him on the lips, and whispered,
"Be careful, I sense that Bakura is involved with this matter," whispered Kikhara as she headed out with Priest Seto.
The Pharaoh watched them as they headed out. Then he told the guard to gather a few more men to try and calm the people in the village. As the Pharaoh headed out, he was shocked to see a whole bunch of ka's running around terrorizing and attack the people in the city. The Pharaoh went to work and summoned Black Magician to destroy the wild ka's.
Meanwhile, as Kikhara and Priest Seto hurried among the frightened villagers a ka of the invader of the throne came and charged at Kikhara. Priest Seto quickly grabbed her and summoned battle ox to destroy it. Kikhara thanked him and they quickly headed to the palace. When they got there the guards quickly closed the palace doors and stood guard of the entrance. Kikhara headed up to her chamber and watched from the balcony the chaos that was running among the kingdom.
Back to where the Pharaoh was, he had been able to clear the village of all the wild ka's. Suddenly a gust of wind blew up the sand in front of the Pharaoh. As the dust cleared standing in front of him, wearing a red robe and a few gold chains around his neck was Bakura.
"Bakura! Are you the one responsible for all these wild ka's?" asked the Pharaoh sharply.
"Ha. Isn't it fun to terrorize innocent people? Ah, but Pharaoh this is just the beginning. For soon you will fall just like all the ones who have been killed before your very eyes!" said Bakura with a look of triumph.
The Pharaoh snarled at Bakura, Bakura sneered at him, as a shadowy figure rose behind him and took the form of a monster with a muscular body and a snake tail.
"Diabound..." said the Pharaoh under his breath.
Kikhara who was still watching from her balcony, sensed Diabound's presence, and started to look worried. She closed her eyes, and Black Magician Girl immediately appeared by her side.
"I'm worried about the Pharaoh, please look for him and keep an eye on him in case he needs help." Said Kikhara
Black Magician Girl nodded and disappeared to look for the Pharaoh. Kikhara watched her leave, and wondered if she should go and help Yami with the wild ka's. But she knew that he would want her to stay in the palace where it was safe. All she could do was wait, for now.
Suddenly, someone grabbed her from behind, Kikhara struggled about trying to free herself from the person's grip, but then she felt a sharp pain on her back. And fell unconscious. The guards heard the noise and came up to Kikhara's room to investigate. When they found the guards in front of her chamber doors they quickly burst inside. And the person who stood before them was none other than Bakura.
Bakura, grinned and snickered as he summoned Diabound and knocked them out cold. Bakura, laughed devilishly and left the Palace taking Kikhara with him.
Back where the Pharaoh was, it seemed that Diabound was ready to attack, so he summoned the God of Obelisk to counter Bakura's attack.
"You'll pay for what you've done!" cried the Pharaoh with rage,
Bakura gave no answer as Obelisk smashed right through Diabound. As it did Diabound quickly disappeared in a flash. The Pharaoh gave a shocked look as Bakura also began to vanish. The Pharaoh thought to himself. Something wasn't right, this was too easy, he looked over at Bakura.
"This must be a trick! You're not Bakura are you?!" said the Pharaoh.
"Ha, good guess Pharaoh. This is not the real me. And have wasted your time! And now I've got one of your most precious possessions! Hahaha, farewell Pharaoh!" said Bakura. And with that he vanished completely, all that was left behind was a black jewel that was now cracked in two.
Black Magician Girl appeared by the Pharaoh. She asked where Bakura had gone, and he told her that it had been a fake the whole time. Then the Pharaoh heard footsteps approaching, Black Magician Girl disappeared as a guard from the palace limped towards the Pharaoh.
"M...My Pharaoh, something terrible has happened!" said the guard weakly.
"What is it?" asked the Pharaoh.
"Queen Kikhara has disappeared." Said the guard looking depressed.
The Pharaoh gave a shocked look and quickly ran back to the palace. When he arrived, he found his guards knocked out. The Pharaoh looked around and headed up to Kikhara's chambers. When he got there, she was nowhere to be found. One of the guards behind him began to wake. The Pharaoh quickly helped him to his feet and asked what had happened.
"Bakura, came in here. He took Queen Kikhara." Said the guard looking shameful.
The Pharaoh didn't say anything. He called all his guards to stand guard by every door. The Pharaoh went to the throne room and sat there, with his head in his hands.
"How could I have let this happen?" thought the Pharaoh to himself.
A while after the Pharaoh's priests returned to report that the villagers have been calmed and have returned to their homes. The Pharaoh looked up at them wearily.
"Is there something wrong my Pharaoh?" asked Priestess Isis.
"Queen Kikhara has been kidnapped by Bakura." Replied the Pharaoh.
"But how can that be!? Was Bakura not in the area you were in!?" asked Priest Seto who looked angered.
"It turned out that it was an imposter, an illusion. It was not real," said the Pharaoh.
Priest Seto snarled and clenched his fist. Everyone looked at each other, where could have Bakura gone? The Pharaoh hung his head sluggishly wondering what to do. But in this case what can he do at all?
After telling Mana about their plan to help her Pharaoh asked Kikhara to escort Mana to the Shrine of the Gods out near the outskirts of town, and that he'd meet up with them there. Kikhara nodded and told Mana to follow her.
