"You think the Millennium Heart will belong to you, brother? You have no heart, and you do not deserve the Millennium Item. That's why you are now here in this Prairie, the Heart itself judges one person by their heart, and the ones who are not deserving of the Heart will be banished to this realm with the dead. You will remain here forever. Now, there's nothing you can do." Ishizu explained.

"Impossible. I have the power of my Millennium Rod, and the power will return me to Egypt. I had enough of this! Now, my Rod, do as I wish and transport me back to Egypt!" Marik exclaimed as he raised his Rod high in the air.

"It's of no use, my real brother has the Millennium Rod now." Ishizu stated.

"NO! It can't be!" Marik stumbled to the floor.

"Yes, this is your destiny, Marik! You can never go back unless you have a heart…" Ishizu exclaimed.

However, only the bad part of Marik was sent to the Prairie…The good one still roams the Earth. Even though Marik was not the rightful possessor of the Millennium Heart, his counterpart is now banished eternally to the Prairie of Lost Souls, and there's no way to bring him back, unless, the possessor of the Millennium Heart brings him back…

The good Marik was shocked; he took off his hood immediately and stared. He cannot remember a thing, after all these years he's been trapped, Marik's finally free from his evil side. However, Marik grieved and cried. It was too late, he had killed his father and his sister. Marik is now alone in this world.

***[3 DAYS later]

Bakura went inside the cave. He has come to Egypt in search of a lost Millennium Item…The Millennium Heart. Legend has it that whoever possessed the Millennium Heart has the power of the Shadow Magic, a powerful magic that allows its possessor to open a person's soul and see everything the person had ever known or done. The Heart also can create prophecies…Bakura closes his eyes…

"5000 years ago in ancient Egypt, a Princess from a foreign land came and taught many people how to invoke the Shadow Powers. She had a Millennium Item: the Millennium Heart. The Heart had allowed the Princess to use and control the Shadow Powers. However, a person had killed the Princess, and thus the Shadow Powers were left uncontrolled. Luckily, a pharaoh saved the world by sacrificing himself and  sealing the powers into 7 more Millennium Items."

As he walked toward the counter, he saw the chest opened up, and the Millennium Heart was gone…

"No! No one shall have the power of the Millennium Heart! No one, but me!" Bakura threw the box on to the floor and took out his Millennium Ring he hid under his sweater. "Ring, show me where the Millennium Heart lies!" Bakura said softly. The ring pointed toward the North… "Yes…Ring, lead me to it now!"

Bakura followed the rings magnetic pull toward the Millennium Heart. He followed the Ring for almost a day before it came to a stop. Eventually, it lead him to an underground platform…The ring has not only lead him to 1 millennium item, but 4 of them…The good Marik with the Millennium Rod, Shadi with his Millennium Key, Scale, and the Millennium Heart itself…
