Ellen: Sorry about the delay! I had a book report... and a poetry book...
and so much homework!
Fwooshy: It's about time you updated!
Ellen: ;__; This is the first chance I've gotten to go on the
internet! Anyway, here's some more of my fic! Shadi is extremely out
of character, and so is Marik, I guess... Pretty much every actual
character has been messed up... Sorry about that! We hadn't really
gotten to know them when I wrote this!
Fwooshy: You should be ashamed.
Ellen: Shut up.

Darkness, everything was darkness. Then I realized that my eyes were closed, so I opened them, and still there was darkness, but with periodic spots of dim, colored light. I drifted, or was it my mind, or my imagination? it seemed an eternity. I saw, met, befriended many who had come there before me, but always I was lonely, and scared. In one particular bout of loneliness, suddenly, I felt joy. Joy, like only Sylvester who has just eaten Tweety could know. I wanted to shout, I wanted to jump, I wanted to fly until my wings fell off.
'Wings?!' I thought to myself. Just then, I took a good look at myself, and I realized that I had become the Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon! Laughter welled up inside of me. I laughed and laughed, but suddenly, I felt a presence behind me, and stopped. I turned, and fired my White Lightning at it, but somehow I felt that it had done nothing. As I looked at the presence, it seemed to grow larger, until it materialized into... that stupid Valkyrion the Magna Warrior again! He charged, and fired his attack as I watched, and everything was dark again. I vaguely remember crying out, 'Not again!', but I could've just imagined it. The next thing I knew, I was in Shadi's underground chamber. 'Shadi! How did I get here?' I wondered.
'Hello, Lauren, we meet again. Do you remember the item that you seemed to be drawn to when you were here last?'
'Do I ever!'
'Well, I believe that it is time for you to receive it. It must be your destiny, seeing that you became your favorite monster when you were exposed to the Millennium Amulet's power.'
'What does that mean? We just glanced over the Millennium Items in Pegasus's Academy, and I don't know the function of each one.'
'Each Millennium Item chooses its owner, and I believe that this Item has chosen you.' He explained why and how the Millennium Items came to be, and told me of each one's special abilities. When he got to the Millennium Amulet, I became especially interested.
'The Millennium Item that has chosen you is called the Millennium Amulet. It was the most recently created Millennium Item. It allows the wearer to look into a person's soul and see the Duel Monster that their soul most suits. You are allowed to transform yourself into any monster you choose. I was testing it and you to see if you were ready.'
'So you were the Valkyrion!' I was a little steamed, and rightly
so.
'I am sorry about that... It was a treat to see the look on your
face, though!'
'Grrr...'
'Anyway, if you want a monster with over 3500 attack points, you must get permission from the Gods.'
'Gods? Which ones? Mesopotamian, Greek, there are too many...'
'Don't be an idiot. I'm sure you've learned of them: Obelisk the Tormentor, Slifer the Sky Dragon, and the Winged Dragon of Ra. Even for the ancient Egyptian pharaoh who captured all the monsters five millennia ago, it's impossible to completely contain a god within a stone tablet. Part of their being still exists with us today. Also, the Millennium Amulet protects its wearer from poisoning, assassination, curses, and mortalities of that nature. '
'Whoa... Do you think I could try it?' I was eager to test my
newfound powers.
'I wouldn't test the poison protection, but yes. The Item is yours now. Now, to use it, hold it like this,' he showed me a stance in which to most effectively utilize the Amulet's powers, 'close your eyes, concentrate very hard on every aspect of your monster - attack and defense, size, etc. - and when you feel different, open your eyes.'
"I closed my eyes and concentrated. Somehow I was able to detect everything that was going on. The Amulet's eye glowed, and gave off a burst of light, which made me glow as well. I slowly changed shape, still glowing. This time, I felt a tiny 'poof' as I became the monster, and abruptly stopped glowing. I opened my large, purple eyes, looked down at my sharp, yellow claws, and gave a small cry of joy. My Amulet somehow still hung around my neck. 'Roo!' 'Kuriboh?' Shadi was taken aback. Then, more relaxed, 'He, he, ah well, to transform back, just think "I wish to be myself again" twice.' There was another small 'poof' and... 'Shadi, were you laughing at me?!' 'Heh, heh, I wasn't laughing at you, just your choice of monsters.' 'Sure you were. Well, what do you think?' I was eager to please him despite myself. 'That was a fine first try. With more practice it can be even faster.' "As a result I've practiced a lot and I can transform in the blink of an eye. So Yugi, what do you think of my end of the story?" Yugi is standing with his mouth open, but he regains his composure when I look at him. "...You transformed into Kuriboh just telling your story!" Lauren scratches the back of her head, smiling. "Oh, sorry. Unh!" "Lauren!?" Lauren grabs the sides of her head and sinks to her knees. A glowing eye appears on her forehead and she relaxes, and stands up as if her movements are not her own. Yugi looks into her eyes and notices no pupils in Lauren's once crystal blue eyes, only an evil, dark, blank glare. Yugi's voice turns cold. "Marik!" Lauren speaks in that strange double-voice that is all too familiar to Yugi. "So, pharaoh, we happen to meet again." "Let Lauren go free of your mind control, Marik! She has nothing to do with us!" Yugi sounds almost desperate. "Sorry, Yugi, but now we must duel! If you win, I might consider letting her go. Although, her Millennium Item would be a nice asset to add to my collection..." "I have to win this, or else it won't be just me in trouble!"
Ellen: So what do you think? I hope the fic's going in a good
direction for all of you. Review if you like something, review if you
don't like something, review if you just want to tell me something.
