A/N: It's going to take me a while to upload some stories because of school and graduation for next year and college and such. So I beg of you to please be patient for the next few months, so when I don't have to worry no more, I could update faster. Thank you.

Chapter 8

~Last Chapter~

"I see you have gotten a new sorcerer." Yami said, also looking at Tristan.

"Yes, he started his lesson the day my father was killed. He finished his lessons, and is now standing by my side, next to sorceress Shani."

"But is he as powerful as sorceress Shani?"

Iris looked up at Yami, "of course he is. They're are almost equal."

Before any other words could be exchange, the palace started to shake, than screams of pain filled the palace.

Than Upton's second in command came running in, "We're being attacked!"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Iris started running towards the balcony, followed by Yami, Shani, Tristan, Upton, Lei, and Makoto. Iris stopped in horror at the sight that came upon, as everyone gasped.

Houses were on fire, blood was spilled all over, woman, children and a few men bodies were all over the streets. Monsters of all kind roamed the city, destroying anything in sight.

"Someone let the duel monsters out. But who?" Yami said, his fist clenched tightly.

"Who ever is doing this to my city shall pay dearly." Everyone looked at Iris, whose face was shadowed, as she looked down. "I will not tolerate anyone who dares to humiliate me or cross me over!" She looked up, fire of anger growing in her eyes.

"Pharaoh Iris, please-" Lei was cut off.

"Lets see what you can do, Tristan. Call forth Red-eyes Black Dragon." Iris order, gripping the lost item around her neck.

Tristan looked unsure at Shani, who nodded. Tristan chanted a spell under his breath. A few seconds later, a Red-eyes appeared in front of them.

"Try to put back all the monsters to the shadow realm. I will find those who dare call war upon me." Iris got on the dragon, looking at the entrance of the city, "take me there." Iris pointed her glaive. The red-eyes did what he was told.

"Please be careful Iris." Makoto said, as the group watch their friend and pharaoh go into battle, not knowing if she'll return.

~Near the city~

Two cloaked figures rode on their horses, "it seems that the war has began." A female voice was heard.

"Yes, but which war is it?" Asked the male voice.

"The first one, as we were informed. Don't you ever listen to the high counsels, Duke?"

"I only listen to what I want to hear, Mai. Not what they have to say."

Mai rolled her eyes, "lets help our leader before it is too late."

They slapped the horses with the reins, making them go faster into the city.

~Nefertiti~

"Late as usual I see, Seta." Nefertiti said, as Seto walked next to her, stepping off the Blue Eyes White Dragon.

"Beginning early without me I see, Nefertiti." Seto said in return. "Where is that idiot of a tomb robber?"

"He will take care of business in this own matter."

"Fine, as long as they leave that good for nothing Pharaoh Yami to me."

Nefertiti grinned, "as long as you leave my dear sister to me."

~Yami~

The group ran out of the palace, trying to help those who were badly injured.

"Shani, Tristan, do what Iris said. Stop those monsters before they destroy the rest of the city." Yami commanded.

Shani and Tristan nodded, "Tristan, follow me. There is an old ruin near by to seal back the monsters."

"Right." The sorcerers ran to the left of the city.

"Let's go and try to help Iris."

"Not so fast Pharaoh Yami."

The group looked up to see a someone walked out of the shadows.

"Who are you? Show yourself!" The person smiled evilly, a Blue eyes appearing behind him. Yami stared in horror, and in anger, "only one person an command a blue eyes. So I see you have betrayed me, Seto Kaiba!"

Seto stepped into the light, chuckling, "you don't deserve to be on the throne!"

"Lei, Makoto, Upton, you guys help the people of this city and Iris. I can take care of myself."

"Right." They ran to the left, going around towards the city.

The two old friends, now enemies, glared at each other. One smiling, the other holding his anger in check.

~Shani and Tristan~

"Here, come on before it's too late."

"I don't think so, sorceress."

The sorcerers stopped running, as a figure looked up. He had white hair and dark, evil brown eyes. He wore the millennium ring around his neck.

Shani growled, "tomb robber Bakura, I presume."

Bakura grinned, "so you know who I am."

"Get out of my way."

"No. I will make sure these monsters destroy every inch of the city, along with it's people!"

~Iris~

When Iris was nearing the entrance of the city, she was thrown off the red-eyes from a sudden attack. Iris groaned, looking at the dragon to watch it disappear. She stood up and squinted her eyes through the dust that formed in front of her.

A figure walked forward, "hello, dearest sister."

Iris's eyes widen, "no, it can't be.... Nefertiti?"
