The next chapter YAY!!!
The Millennium Ritual
Chapter 10: Egypt's Mysterious Secrets
Yami Bakura was sitting down, looking through the small window at his side. He noticed three pyramids passing them as the plane flew over.
Yami Bakura grinned. 'We're here. . .' He thought. 'Let the games begin. . .' Suddenly Yami Bakura let go of control of Bakura's body, leaving to go to his soul room. Bakura, now in control of his body, jumped up, eyes wide open. 'Oh no.' He thought, franticly looking around. 'What did he do now?' ______________________________________________________________________
An hour later, John the pilot landed the plane, with everyone else still in the aircraft. Aura was the first to go out. She was at the foot of the stairs, then, turning to face them, said, "It is your decision. Do you want to save your loved ones, or do you want to go back to Domino?" Aura then walked away to a nearby motorcycle.
Kaiba was the first to get off. "Well are you geeks gonna come or what?" He said. Kaiba followed Aura to the motorcycle. Joey hesitated for a moment, not liking to be ordered around by a stuffed up CEO. But eventually, he followed. The rest came up after him, except Yami.
"You coming Yugi?" Tea called after him. "Earth to Yugi? Hello?"
Yami didn't hear, he just stared at the landscape around him. 'This place. ..' He thought, eyes widening. 'It looks so familiar. . .' ______________________________________________________________________
Ancient Egypt - 5,000 years ago
"With the power of Earth, Wind, Fire and Water.
Grant us passage to this hour.
Reveal the darkness to the light.
Give us a safe journey through the night."
The beating of drums filled the air, as mages and priests chanted the old spell, with the fire burning brightly. The High Priestess stood above them all, seriousness filling her green eyes. The High Priest stood next to her, standing proudly. And if one could look very carefully, one can see a young boy around the age 17, spying on the ceremony. It was the Prince Of Egypt, Yami. The Priestess stood waiting for a moment, then soon after she put her hands up to silence them all. The subjects quieted, waiting.
She continued, "My people! We are gathered here at the full moon of midnight, to celebrate the peaceful years the gods have given us." They cheered, with the High Priest, Set, smiling. Maeve, the High Priestess, held up her hands again. Silence.
"But we now know that these years will not last long, for an ancient evil shall come and put a shadow to our light. It is destiny. A destiny that only the Pharaoh Of Egypt can achieve. Only he can save the world from total destruction. " Maeve said. The crowd whispered excitedly. Yami was behind the tall obelisk, looking confused.
She continued. "I have gathered you here today to summon a power that will help our young pharaoh through his task, so that the world can be saved."
Someone then yelled, "How can a killer be the savior of the world?!" The people nodded in agreement.
She glared at the crowd, making them calm down. No one ever disobeys the High Priestess. "He will change his ways! I know, he is not a barbarian. He is a young man, not knowing of all the sins he has done. But the gods forgave him, I forgave him, and you shall too."
"Here, here!" Set yelled, raising his hand in the air.
Maeve smiled. "Now who shall help me in this task?"
Everyone cheered, thinking that the High Priestess always knew what was best for Egypt.

"Your majesty, are you sure you made the right decision?" Set said, pulling the High Priestess behind the obelisk where Yami was hiding. Quickly Yami moved to another hiding place.
She nodded, smiling sadly. "Yes, I believe I have. But we'll never actually know if I was right, only time shall tell."
The High Priest sighed, staring into the High Priestess's eyes. "Maeve, I am speaking to you as a friend. Please reconsider. This is a highly dangerous task. If the spell does not succeed, you can be trapped in the Shadow Realm. Forever."
Maeve nodded, then squeezed his shoulder. Set froze. "Trust me Set. I know what I am doing." Then she walked to the horse drawn chariot a few feet from them. Set sighed, and slowly followed the High Priestess.
Yami appeared out of his hiding place. 'What did she do?' He thought, looking at the now disappearing chariot. ___________________________________________________________________
"YUGI!!!!!!!!!" Tea yelled at Yami. He jumped, releasing him from his flashback. "Are you coming or what?"
He sighed, not knowing what to do. Making up his mind, he said, "Yes, lets go." Tea and Yami quickly ran to catch up with the rest. Aura was speaking to the rest of them, telling them what the plan is.
"Now as I was saying. . ." Aura said, repeating what she said before. "We are first going to the healer's home, to find out if she knows anything about the kidnappings."
"Then what?" Kaiba said, waiting to go.
"Then, we'll go back to my place, and create a plan to rescue them." Aura said.
"And then?" Joey said.
She sighed, and said, "Only time can tell." Then she walked over to the silver motorcycle, and put on the helmet.
"Hey! What about us? How are we gonna get there?" Duke said, as Aura started the engine. She lifted the visor.
"Do any of you know how to drive?" She asked, pointing to a green jeep.
"Not yet." Tristan said, staring at the car.
"Well then, I guess that means you will have to walk." Aura then drove off, leaving the rest speechless. But she turned back, saying, "I have hired a driver to drive you there! I will follow you!"
The rest sighed, glad that they did not have to walk. So then they all piled into the jeep, and then the driver drove away, with Aura right behind them.
The pilot John watched them go. Then as they disappeared, he reached into his pocket to grab his cell phone. Dialing a number down, the phone rang.
"Name?" The voice in the phone said.
"Shanek" The pilot said.
"State your business."
"I've come to tell him that they have arrived in Egypt. Tell him to prepare the trap, and that I will be there soon."
"Yes sir." The voice said. Then the line got dead.
Shanek smiled. 'The trap is set.' He thought, looking out into the distance.
