Yugi: AH THE REVIEWERS KILLED T.G.A.G!
Yami: *looks at me.* Don't worry aibou she'll be back. I doubt that we can get rid of her that easily.
Me: *sits up suddenly* And what is that supposed to mean?
Yami: *looks around* Nothing.
Me: *gets up off the floor and brushes some dust of my clothes* Good it better mean nothing or you'll suffer the consequences.
Yami: Eep. *runs and hides*
Yugi: *anime sweat drop* Since Yami is hiding right now I'll do his job. Thanks to all of T.G.A.G's reviewers for reviewing and I'm sorry to say that she doesn't own YGO oh but Kariko/Mitsukai and Chikyuu are hers. Did I do ok?
Me: Yips and on with the chapter. Oh and Kariko is still Kariko unless Yami/Bakura or Y.Malik are talking to her or about her then she's Mitsukai.
************************************************************************
"Bakura and Y.Malik, I thought I recognized those two." Yami stated, Kariko looked up at him.
"What's wrong Yami?" She asked sweetly. Yami couldn't help but smile at the simple question.
"Nothing Kariko." He told her and placed her on the ground. Once on the ground she went over to the couch, laid down and fell asleep.
"I'm not surprised that she is tired." Sugoroku chuckled. Yami placed a blanket gently over Kariko. She stirred slightly in her sleep.
"No you were saying something about awaking pass memories." Yami said. Sugoroku nodded.
"Yes as I was saying to stop Kariko from have those little spells where she seems like she is mental you'll need to awake all of her pass memories that Chikyuu locked away in her subconscious. Chikyuu was afraid that if Kariko knew how she really was she wouldn't get along with this time. But she also knew that one day you two would be reunited and those memories would have to be unlock so she left me this and told me to give it to you." Sugoroku told Yami and handed him a box. Yami opened the small box and in it was a small gold arm band decorated in Egyptian hieroglyphics. He recognized the band as the same one that Kariko had worn back in Egypt. "She told me long before any of this happened that this band would give you access to your daughter's unconscious mind. It will also open up a mental link with her." Sugoroku continued. Yami nodded and placed the band on Kariko's upper right arm where it use to be. The band glowed faintly and Yami disappeared. He found himself in a brightly lit corridor fill with many hallways and closed off doors. He was pondering where he should beginning when a child appeared before him. She looked to be 5 or 6. She looked like Kariko but had eyes of deep golden color highlighted with sliver and her bangs were a shaded lighter of red then Kariko's. She was dressed in a flowing pale blue dress.
"I've been waiting for you Pharaoh Yami. I've been waiting for the day when you would reawaken Mitsukai. I'm here to guide you to your location but I warn you once her memories are reawaken Kariko will once again be Mitsukai, daughter of the powerful Pharaoh Yami and Arch mage Chikyuu. She will maintain all of her present memories. And I, myself, beg you to please protect her from Bakura and Y.Malik who will again try to kill her." The child said.
"I promise you that no harm will come to my daughter. I have but one question to ask." Yami said.
"Then ask oh mighty Pharaoh."
"Will Kariko's magic be as strong now as it was then?"
"The answer to your question is no she will not be as strong but stronger." The child replied. "Shall I lead the way?" Yami nodded and the child led the way through Kariko's mind. After walking for awhile they stopped in front of a door embroider with hieroglyphics. "This is where Mitsukai's memories lay. Once this door is open she will remember everything about Egypt and her pass." The child said. "I will leave you now but if you or Mitsukai are ever in trouble please call on me for I am Mitsukai's protector. My name is Ryuu." She told Yami.
"May I ask one more question?" Yami asked politely. Ryuu laughed.
"If you must."
"Why do you look like Kariko?"
"I take on the form of the one I am protecting. But with some differences." Ryuu replied. "Now I'll leave you to reawaken Mitsukai." Ryuu said as she faded from Yami's sight. Yami turned and looked at the door in front of him. So this is where the memories of Mitsukai are locked away. He thought and he placed his hand on the doorknob and gently opened the door. Inside sat a child, she was humming and rocking back and forth but when she heard Yami entered, she stopped and stood up.
"Otousan (it means father if my Japanese is correct)!" She cried and ran to Yami, who wrapped her up in a hug. "I know one day you'd come back for me."
"I'm here now Mitsukai." He said gently and led her out of the room. Once outside the room the child disappeared and Ryuu reappeared with a smile on her face.
"My Pharaoh you have let Mitsukai's memories out. You may now leave." Ryuu told him.
"Where's Honda?" He asked looking around the room.
"He left while ya were gone." Jou said.
"Did it work?" Yami asked Sugoroku.
"We'll know in a bit. Let her sleep for now. Oh by the way Yugi. You'll be staying with me at the Game Shop." He said. Yugi looked confused.
"Why and are Yami and Kariko staying with us too?"
"Yes they are and the police picked up your father last night for drinking and driving." Sugoroku said. "Shall we leave now?" Yugi nodded. "Your friends are more then welcome to come along to." Yami picked up the sleeping Kariko and followed Yugi and Sugoroku out the door. Seto and Jou decided to follow since they had nothing better to do. Half way there Kariko woke up. Her eyes had darkened by a few shades they were now a mix of crimson red and amethyst. She peered up at Yami.
"Otousan where are we going and where's Yugi?" She asked half awake. Yami smiled at Kariko's sweet voice calling him Otousan again.
"Sh, it's ok Mitsukai we're just going to the Game Shop." Yami told her. Yugi moved over to Kariko's side.
"I'm right here." Yugi told her. Kariko smiled at Yugi then she looked up at Yami again.
"Why are you carrying me?" She asked softly. Yami chuckled.
Just as curious as she use to be he thought. "Because, my dear, sweet little Mitsukai, I want to." Yami told her and kissed her on her forehead. Kariko giggled and snuggled into Yami's chest and yawned. She then drifted off to sleep again. Yugi looked at her, and sighed.
~~ What's wrong aibou? ~~
~ Nothing Yami ~
~~ Yes there is. How can I help if you don't tell me? ~~
~ I'm sorry Yami it is just that I thought that Kariko was my sister. Now I know that she ain't and I'm kinda sad. ~
~~ It's ok aibou Mitsukai will still pose as Kariko, your sister and I bet that she still thinks of you as her brother. I bet that Mitsukai would love having a brother because she was an only child back in Egypt. ~~
~ You think so? ~
~~ Yes I do. You can ask Mitsukai when she wakes up ok. ~~
~ Ok. ~ By then they group had reached the Game Shop. Sugoroku unlocked the side door and led the group inside. Everyone removed their shoes and with the help of Seto Yami got Kariko's shoes off of her.
"Is my room still the same?" Yugi asked.
"Yes Yugi." Sugoroku told him. Yugi headed up the stairs to his room to put his backpack away. "Yami I have a guest room you can stay in if you want."
"It is ok I'll stay in my puzzle and Mitsukai can have the guest room." Yami told him. Sugoroku nodded and Yami headed upstairs to place Kariko in bed. Half way up the stairs Kariko woke up again.
"Now where are we going?" She asked while rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
"Well you're going to bed and I'm going back downstairs." Yami told her as they reached the guest room.
"But I don't wanna go to bed." Kariko whined and started pouting. Yami laughed out loud.
"Fine, fine you don't have to go to bed BUT if you fall asleep again off to bed you go." Yami laughed and placed Kariko on the ground.
"Thank you Otousan. Where's Yugi?" Kariko said and gave Yami a hug.
"In his room I think." Yami told her. Kariko ran off to find Yugi. At least Yugi doesn't have to worry about her not wanting to be his sister anymore.
~~ Aibou? ~~
~ Yeah Yami? ~
~~ Mitsukai is on her way. ~~
~ She is? Oh wait here she is. ~
~~ I guess you don't have to worry about the sister thing anymore. ~~
~ You were right Yami. Now I got to go have some fun with my sister. ~
~~ Have fun. ~~
