Mokuba felt a spinning sensation. It was like he was in a whirlpool, being sucked down. And then, it stopped. He found himself, on his feet, in a beautiful garden. It had trees for as far as the eye could see, and flowers budding out on the vines crawling up the trees. The grass was green and lush and the sun made little streaks of light through the trees. Mokuba was astounded by the beauty and comfort of this place. It seemed as though it didn't have a care in the world, or the intension of hurting the small boy.
"Who are you?" a soft voice asked. "And why are you here?"
Mokuba felt uneasy, for he could not see the owner of the voice, but he replied, "I am Mokuba Kaiba, and I've come to set my brother free and get him back."
There was an uneasy silence, then, a figure started to take form in front of him. She was slightly taller than Mokuba and was most defiantly older. She had jet-black hair and a fair complexion. Her eyes were a deep brown and she had pointed ears like an elf. She wore a tunic that covered everything but her head and her feet, which were bare. At her side hung a scabbard in which was a fairly long sword.
"My name is Manacazikuzi, the creature that represents the plants, water, rocks, and sky of the earth," she told Mokuba. "So, you wish to get your brother back, where is he, if I may ask."
"He's a slave to Gatanezaca," Mokuba replied, looking into the brown eyes of Manacazikuzi.
"Well then, I see Gatanezaca's worn out his other, now hasn't he?" Manacazikuzi mumbled thoughtfully. "If you want to save your brother, you'll have to hurry. If he's who I'm thinking of, then he's close to the point of no return. I can help you, but first you must pass a test."
"I test? What kind of test?" Mokuba asked.
"It's a test of wits and courage," Manacazikuzi explained. "You must make it through to the other clearing in this forest. You will find me there."
Then, Manacazikuzi disappeared. Mokuba looked around, trying to deside which way to go. He finally decieded to head right. The little lit that was shinning through the trees thinned out slightly. It was getting dificult to see anything. But still he trudged on. All of a sudden, a huge creature came out of no where. I was the size of a bear on it's hind legs and it was black and furry. But it was not a bear, it was something else. Mokuba looked up at it in fear. It looked down at the scare Mokuba.
"Who are you?" it growled.
"Mokuba Kaiba, please let me through," Mokuba replied.
"No, not unless you give me a good reason," the creature growled.
"My bro-"Mokuba started.
"No," the creature cut him short. "You must tell it as a story, not using the exact situtation you're in."
Mokuba thought for a moment.
"A young wolf once lived in a plains area with his pack," Mokuba started. "He lived happily, the only problem was that there was always a heard of antelope which always passed by, and if they weren't careful, the wolves could get killed by them.One night, two young wolves were out getting a drink of water when the stampede. The older of the two pushed the younger one out of the way and into the water. The older one was swept away with the stampede, but not killed. The younger wolf, deciding that it was his fault, set out to find the brave wolf that had saved him. He searched for nights and days until he finally found the one he was looking for. In triumph, they returned home."
The creature digested this, and then said,"I'll accept that, you may pass."
Mokuba sighed in relief, and continued on. There were no markings, no sighs that told him which way to go. A couple times, he even felt like it was hopeless, and that he should stop and forget it. But the vivid picture of Seto being slapped and lying on the ground kept him going. He was surprised when he found the clearing with Manacazikuzi in it.
"You found me, good job," she told him.
Mokuba smiled with pleasure. One down and two to go.
"I wish to help you," Manacazikuzi told Mokuba.
"How?" he asked.
"I will freeze time in your world. By your time there, this will just be a very long dream," she explained.
She closed her eyes and there was a flash of light.
"There, it is done, but you better hurry, your brother is running out of time," she cautioned.
Another portal opened up beside her.
"This will take you to the next creature," she told Mokuba. "But be warned, he is not a mercyful as I. I have a soft heart, while the other two do not. I wish you the best of luck."
And with that, Mokuba walked into the vortex.
Cool huh? Anyway, review. It's sure to get even interesting. Now, to get something to eat...
