Chapter 7: Misha senses the Ring

With night approaching Misha looked up at the sky and saw a full moon, he stared at it and thought to himself: "Man, I've never seen the moon that well at night? Or the stars for that matter. I guess out of all the things I thought I needed, a little brother, a girlfriend and what have you...I guess all I truly needed was a little time out of the city." Pegasus walked up beside him and looked at the stars with him and said, "You can see them rather clearly around here can't you Misha boy?"

Misha turned to him and said, "I guess it wasn't a bad mistake coming here after all, there's just one thing on my mind vat I can't get over…and it's vhat troubles me, Kaiba's little brother. Vhat is he doing here?" Pegasus then just gave Misha a look that told Misha there was a bigger picture than what had met his eye, Pegasus answered, "Misha…I'm sure you remember how I said that you'd soon be able to control Kaiba Corp.? Well in order to do that we had to make sure that neither of the brothers Kaiba could take control of it again…and that meant kidnapping the younger one."

Misha scowled at this and growled, "Kidnapping? KIDNAPPING!?! Oh LORD and Seraphs align yourselves and smite this blind fool down! I should've helped him escape…but lo and behold, I wanted control of an empire through fair battle with little casualty? Not through kidnapping and murder, for what kind of empire would I then control? One bathed in blood and treachery!" Pegasus looked at Misha and said, "Don't look at it as a bad thing, after all…if all goes according to our plan-?" Misha cut him off and said, "Our plan? OUR PLAN! There's no our.it was your plan all this time. I said I'd help you in any way possible to my fancy, but if I had known that it could only be obtained through death and treachery I would have been back home with my family. Dear Mother, Father, Brother and ancestors forgive me deeply please, for I have disgraced the entire family!"

Pegasus put his hand on Misha's shoulder and said, "Misha I know right now it looks very bad to you, but think about this after leaving here…have you damaged your pride all that much? And if not, is it worth feeling this sorry for yourself over?" Misha stood up and made off for his living quarters, ticked off at what he had just learned. After a while Misha calmed down and looked at his cards, shuffling through them…every one of his, he took out a select few and looked at them, he mumbled to himself: "Cyber Falcon, yeah I could see myself as this card, flying freely over and away from this island. Humph! Judgement of Anubis, yeah that's what I feel like...like I'm being judged by the souls and hearts of so many people, being judged by the Kaiba brothers."

Misha then slowly started to fall asleep, and had possibly what he would've described as one of the weirdest dreams he had ever had enter his mind, he was standing in the midst of a fog...he couldn't see anything in front of him. When it cleared Misha saw before him a huge building, he didn't have to look over too much to guess what it was, it was Kaiba Corp. HQ. Misha walked up to the door and put his hand against it. The exact moment he put his hand against the door he felt something wet press against it; he removed his hand from the door and looked at his palm.

His palm was covered in blood! Misha yelled out, "An empire of blood and treachery…if that is what you are then I don't want anything to do with you!" suddenly the whole building seemed to bleed, and all of the blood was flying and falling everywhere. Misha shielded his eyes and kept yelling, "I DON'T WANT IT, I DON'T WANT IT, I DON'T WANT IT, I DON'T WANT ANY OF IT ANYMORE!" Suddenly the building collapsed on Misha and exploded into a complete bloodbath, Misha then felt the ground beneath him swallow him up. After falling for a bit, Misha hit a solid patch of ground…looking around Misha realized he was in some sort of chamber, he looked around feeling his way through it. Soon he came to another chamber, well lit this time.

He stepped into the center of it and found against the wall to the right of him were several items made of gold, all bearing the same eye shaped symbol on a part of them. Misha noticed that three of them were glowing…but what did it mean? Misha then turned around and saw three other items against the opposite wall; all made of what looked like steel or possibly silver. Misha then recognized the item in the center, it was his bracelet. The other two items were a circlet and a gauntlet bearing the same symbol as his bracelet. And to his surprise it was glowing too. Misha looked at the room very carefully, there seemed to be nothing important about it…just the items and that was it. Suddenly a voice came from the doorway: "I should've known you be here, this room both shocks me and intrigues me. On the right wall I see the seven Millennium Items of Egypt, and to my left I see the three Millennium Items of The Machine Empire." Misha looked back and saw the spirit of the bracelet standing in the doorway. Misha asked, "I see four of these ten items glowing, what does that mean?" The spirit answered: "It means that they are close, you already possess the bracelet…the items known as the Millennium Puzzle, Eye and Ring are somewhere on the island." Misha looked at the three items that were glowing, then he said: "Wait, I've seen these two before! Pegasus possesses the Millennium Eye, and if my memory recalls I think that Yugi possesses the Millennium Puzzle? But then."

Misha looked at the Millennium Ring and asked, "Who possesses the Ring?" Suddenly a basin full of water appeared in the middle of the room, the spirit and Misha both walked over and looked into it. The spirit said, "The Ghost Pool...it has appeared as if to answer your question? To tell the truth, I at first did not believe that you had power over the Shadow Magic without my aid, but now I not know what to believe anymore. You will have your answer in due time, suddenly the basin showed a white dot of light in a sea of darkness, and from beyond that darkness was a rather bluish-purple haze. The spirit said, "I see, the Ghost Pool has revealed that the one you look for is an innocent bound to a evil spirit who would care less for its host, and the haze reveals that it is at this moment in a shadow game."

Misha looked at the spirit and said, "WHAT? Is that it? No face, no name……just a stupid visual!"

The spirit said, "The Ghost Pool is an oracle of the Shadow Realm, it need not give you a straight answer." Misha gave a look of 'figures.' Just then a blinding white light came down the tunnel, Misha asked: "What the hell is that?" The spirit said, "The night is over…and with that so is this dream." Misha awoke to a new day and asked himself, "It was all a dream…but strange thing is, it felt so real?" just then Misha felt something strange on his hand, as if it were dry paint or tar. Misha looked at his palm and behold dried blood.

Misha raced into the bathroom and washed it off, in some strange way all of this had happened. Misha exited the bathroom, knowing now that another Item was present on the island…and Misha didn't feel too much like letting it stay. It or its host
