Ellen: Eh heh heh heh... Thank you very much to Atriux for pointing out that
the chapter that was supposed to be here actually goes in my Digimon fic!!
Cheddar: We're so embarrassed!!%%
Ellen: Well, anyway, here's the REAL ending!!
The eye on the Millennium Amulet glows black, and shoots a beam of black light at a spot across the street. "Just great. He's in the Shadow Realm. Oh well." The duo walks to the spot. Lauren still addresses her Millennium Item. "Now Amulet, let us enter the Shadow Realm to find and punish Marik Ishtar!" A bright flash of light envelops Lauren and Yami, and they, and the light, disappear, to reappear in the Shadow Realm, standing on apparently nothing, in front of a Giant Soldier of Stone, who is facing them. In the Shadow Realm, both Yugi and Yami are visible. Marik, even as a Giant Soldier of Stone, still holds his Millennium Rod. "Yugi! Lauren! Pharaoh!" the Soldier spits. Lauren smiles faintly. "Hello to you too, Marik. Are you ready to meet your doom? I summon the Toon World card from my deck, and with the power of my Millennium Amulet, transform myself into the Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon!" The Amulet's eye glows, and gives off a burst of light, which makes Lauren glow as well. She slowly changes shape, still glowing, and when she is fully monster she abruptly stops glowing and glares at Marik. "White Lightning attack!" Lauren prepares to attack. She takes in a huge gulp of air. "Stop!" Ishizu has appeared from apparently nowhere. Lauren lets out her breath in a little burst of steam, and looks annoyed. "Ishizu?!" Yugi asks wonderingly. Ishizu turns to Lauren. "I cannot let you destroy my brother, even considering the things that he's done." "But Ishizu-"The Blue-Eyes begins impatiently. Ishizu interrupts. "No!" "Ishizu, come here for a moment. Let's make a deal." Ishizu walks over to where Lauren hovers, and they have a short whispered conversation. They both nod to each other, and face Marik and Yugi/Yami. "I will spare your life on only one condition," the dragon declares. Marik's voice sounds scared, yet bold. "What would that be?" "The condition is that you must give up any connection to ancient Egypt that you possess, such as your Winged Dragon of Ra card and the Millennium Rod. You may still play Duel Monsters, but don't even think of starting up the Rare Hunters again. You have one minute to decide. 60, 59, 58..." "Er, um..." "31, 30, 29..." "Oh, uh... hey, what's to stop me from just attacking you all right now?" "1700 attack points and about 6 seconds. 5, 4, 3..." "Stop! I will agree to your terms." The Blue-Eyes turns to Ishizu, Yugi, and Yami. "Anything to save his own pathetic life, huh?" Then, to everyone, reluctantly, "All right, Marik, I will spare your life. However, you must now speak with one of your Rare Hunters that isn't controlled by the Millennium Rod and tell them to hand over your God card to Yugi when we return." "Not one of my mind slaves?" the Soldier asked. "No," Lauren replied, "because now you shall release all of your mind slaves, before you give the Rod to Yugi." "All right..." Bright pulses of light shine from the Rod to many points in the sky, then disappear. "Lauren..." Yugi approaches the dragon. "Hm?" "You may keep his Winged Dragon of Ra card. I already possess Slifer the Sky Dragon, after all." Lauren changes back to her human form, and grabs the card from Marik. "Thank you, Yugi, but are you sure?" "Of course I'm sure!" Yugi smiles. "Thank you very much Yugi, but you should at least take the Millennium Rod," Lauren says. Yami answers for them. "We plan to. Now, Marik, is that everything that you ancient Egyptian that you have?" Marik narrows his eyes. "No, but I could show you what it was if I was human." "Fine, I'll change you back," Lauren concedes, "but don't try anything funny because Yugi still has your Millennium Rod." She addresses the Millennium Amulet. "Millennium Amulet, please transform Marik Ishtar human again!" The Giant Soldier of Stone emits a bright light, disappears, and in its place Marik appears, fully clothed. Marik sighs. "This is my only other tie to ancient Egypt, besides my knowledge of the ancient scriptures." He turns his back to the group, and takes off his robe. "What a tattoo!" "Oh!" Lauren and Yami, respectively, are wide-eyed at the sight of the tattooing on Marik's back. Ishizu explains for her brother. "Yes, anyone who receives the special training passed down in our family will obtain this tattoo when there is no more for him to learn." "Well, I think we can let him keep his knowledge and pretty much his entire back, what do you think?" Lauren states as she looks at Ishizu. Ishizu looks at Lauren and nods. "Yes, I think so. Now brother," Ishizu looks regretfully at Marik, "I bid you farewell, for I fear that I shall never be able to speak to you again after all this." She then turns to Lauren, Yugi, and Yami. "Let's get out of this place. It always gives me the creeps!" Lauren smiles. "Same here!" "Hey, what about me?!" Marik starts to panic. Lauren winks to Ishizu, Yugi and Yami "Should we take him with us?" Yugi pretends to think. "I don't know; he was acting pretty nasty, taking control of other people's minds for evil and all." "To his own sister as well!" "Please, don't leave me here!!" Marik is frantic. Yami reluctantly voices their decision. "All right, but don't make us regret it!" Everyone, except Marik, laughs.
Ellen: All right! Go Lauren! Isn't she awesome!
Fwooshy: Of course she is to you. You wrote her.
Ellen: I'm just not going to listen... Yay Lauren!
Cheddar: Sigh Please forgive us for the little mix-up by reviewing!
