Chapter 8

The Pain of a Broken Heart

Yami rushed over towards Maiku's lifeless body. "Come on, wake up." He whispered, "Please." His heart was breaking. He had never felt so bad in his life.

Tears welled up in Yami's eyes, and he started to sob silently. 'She can't be gone.' He thought, 'But she's not moving. I didn't even get to tell her how I feel about her. I didn't get the chance to tell her that... I love her. Now she'll never know. She'll never know how much I love her.'

Yami brushed away his tears and stood back up. "You'll pay Seth. I swear you'll pay." He turned around and continued, "I challenge you to a Shadow Game, right here, right now!"

Seth looked like he was caught by surprise. "Fine, if I win, I will not only get your throne, but you'll join your girlfriend in the Shadows!" Seth once again, brandished his Mellenium Rod. "And if I win, you'll bring Maiku back AND you'll leave Egypt and NEVER come back!" Yami said.

"Agreed." Seth said. Both Yami and Seth muttered some strange words and Yami summoned his Slypher the Sky Dragon and Seth summoned his Obolisk the Tormenter.

"Alright Slypher, attack his Obolisk the Tormenter!" Yami cried. The dragon obeyed and shot a flame attack at Seth's creature. The monster let out a cry and retaliated. It punched Slypher right in the nose. "Obolisk, destroy his monster!" Seth shouted. Obolisk went in for another punch but was countered by Slypher's massive tail. "Slypher, counter attack!" Yami commanded...

Meanwhile in the Shadow Realm, Maiku was living a nightmare. She was blasted by that Exodia endlessly for the past hour, and was mentally dying. She could barely keep her eyes open and she could barely even sit up. 'Yami... Get me outta here...' She thought. "Now then, let's have some more fun, shall we?" That man said. Again, he muttered some strange words and The Winged Dragon of Ra materialized.

"Now my Winged Dragon of Ra and Exodia, combine your power and attack!" The man shouted.

Maiku weakly braced herself and closed her eyes. 'This is it...' She thought, 'Goodbye Yami...'

The combined energy hit Maiku with incredible force. She flung backward several hundred feet and passed out once more...

How'd y'all like that? Please R&R and I'll update the story some more.
