Okay, this is just a little story I thought up after looking at some stuff. Lotsa you may already know some of this, but I just wanted to put it into Yugi's thoughts. Have fun.

Final Thoughts

I sighed, slightly satisfied with my work. Preparing a duel deck to counter the Game King's is no easy task. I usually go over my deck with him, but this time, I can't. This wasn't just another duel, this was the duel, the duel of destiny.

Destiny.. Ever since he came into my life, destiny was all that mattered. My life suddenly became all figured out. It didn't really bother me. Not that much anyway. After finding his memory, his name, we both come to expect this. The last task for us both.

We'll be reaching the Valley of the Kings soon. A little too soon for my taste. This was inevitable, the duel between him and me. As the only one who could put together the Sennen Puzzle, this was my fate.

"Are you finished preparing your deck, Aibou?" he asked suddenly appearing by my side, spiritually of course.

I nodded, placing it in the Millennium Puzzle box. I looked up at him and smiled. "Ya know, everyone is worried about you. Seeing how you haven't shown yourself in awhile."

"I couldn't come out while you were getting ready. Malik told me earlier about the Ceremonial Battle."

I nodded again. I continued to look at Atemu. No, my other. He wasn't 'Atemu' yet, not to me anyway. As long as he was sharing my body, even if he wasn't, he would still be my other. "I'm gonna duel you with all I got," I said to him.

"As I with you."

"Well, I'm gonna let you organize your deck." I said after a moment of silence. I smiled a bit playfully. "I think I may have a strategy to overcome your weaknesses."

My smile faded when he didn't answer. He was in his little thought mode again. I knew not to disturb him. I turned away, sadness filling my soul. I was trying to be good about it, for his sake, but that wasn't what I really felt. Of course, this was the duel of destiny and everything, but this not only decided his fate, but mine as well.

I looked around the underground temple, though my other half was in control, feeling the tension from him, me, and just about everyone else that was there. I noted the Millennium Eyes on the stone wall behind us.

I felt Atemu...no, my other half, place all the Sennen Items on the stone tablet, causing those Millennium Eyes to shine brilliantly. The Wedjat Eye as Isis said. It's supposed to look through real spirits. The Wedjat Eye on the right is the eye of the god Ra, representing the sun or protection. The left Wedjat Eye is the eye of the god Horus, representing the moon or protection. Two opposites...just like me and my other half.

I suddenly felt myself separate from the other me, placing me on the opposite end of our dueling arena. I'm was still in spirit form, but then slowly, turned solid. I looked up, and stared into crimson eyes. The eyes of my opposite. I was a bit surprised, and guess that everyone else was as well. This was the first time that we were face to face, both of us in our own body. I looked at the Wedjat Eye, knowing that it was the one that separated us.

I looked to my friends, seeing their hesitant faces. I knew they were confused at which one of us to cheer for. I smiled at them, in a way telling them that it was alright and they didn't have to choose. They smiled back, however, I did observed that Anzu was a bit tentative. I knew for a while that she liked my darker half in the way that I used to like her. I had a feeling that she kind of wanted me to lose.

"Yugi." I turned to my other. "I want to thank you, for all that you've done for me. I can't say I'll go easy on you, but I know you wouldn't have it any other way. Do you think you can beat me?"

"I'm sure I can," I replied. "I'm not gonna go easy on you either, Other Me, but I have to be stronger. I'll be stronger so that your soul can go."

He nodded. Crimson met violet. Atemu...no...the other me.

It's gonna be so hard for the both of us. If you win, Atemu...no... Other Me, then you will stay with me, here in this world, only showing how weak I am. If I win, then I will have to let you go, let your spirit free. Either way, I lose.

"DUEL!"
