Chapter Eight—The Dream come True

I was wrong however. It was probably around three or four o'clock in the morning when someone came up to the cell door. For a moment I thought it was a guard, or someone sent to execute me. Then I heard the familiar voice of my friend, "Bakura, we must leave now!" The door unlocked and I saw him standing there, holding the key.

"How did you get that?" I asked him.

"You can get anything you want as the pharaoh's advisor," he laughed," and he doesn't suspect a thing."

I forced a smile. Then we ran towards the pyramids. I stole a pile of gold treasure, although Kaiba urged me not to. We ran until we were out of sight of the palace. Then we stopped to take a break. I looked back. Someone was coming!

-----------------------------------------

Yugi was running as fast as he could. He was running towards the thief. He had white hair and was unmistakably Bakura. Yugi just noticed Jonouchi was there too. Bakura was slowed by the weight of the gold treasure he was carrying, and so Jonouchi caught up to him and grabbed him by the shoulder. Bakura whipped around and grabbed a knife from the pile of treasure. Then it seemed time slowed down. Taking the knife in his right hand, he turned and stabbed Jonouchi.

"No!" Yugi screamed.

"Go," Kaiba whispered to Bakura, and he did as his friend told him. Seto covered his face with his cape. Yugi's eyes were filled with tears, so his vision was blurred. Had he seen Seto Kaiba, the pharaoh's advisor, with Bakura the Thief?!

Yugi was more concerned about Jonouchi though, and so he didn't dwell upon the image of Seto standing by the thief.

Bakura had stabbed Jonouchi near the heart. He would be dead soon if Yugi didn't do anything. But Jonouchi was a lot bigger that Yugi. Yugi yelled. He yelled as loud as he could.

Soon after, some guards came to see what was wrong. Yugi didn't bother explaining too much, "He was stabbed! PLEASE…please help!"

Later…

Yugi saw the healer coming from a tent near the river. He ran up and immediately asked, "How is Jonouchi? Is he okay?"
