Chapter 5:
The Legend
"Today it's the day..." said Yugi in front of the airport. "Today we'll go to Egypt. Thanks Grandpa for the ride."
"You're welcome Yugi. But you three must stay alert. Anything can pass in a travel around the world." Said Solomon Moto.
"We'll take care of ourselves, don't worry Mr. Solomon." Said Rymer.
Rymer, Yugi, and Girla turned back and walked into the airport. Domino Airport was a big black and silver building. Gate 45 was their destiny. They entered checked themselves for the flight 675. But when Yugi was registering, Girla saw some black hooded people in the check line. Rymer saw them too. They were both asking why people like that would be in an airport. But maybe it is an Egyptian culture, thought Rymer.
"We are all set. Let's go!" called Yugi.
The flight passed with no delays. And the plane landed in Egypt as planned. The adventures registered themselves in the nearest hotel to the airport, 1 mile from it. Yugi proposed to go to the center of the city, to see the town of Egypt. Rymer accepted but Girla stayed. She said that she hadn't unpacked yet.
Rymer and Yugi left for the town. They'd never seen houses like that or even people who dressed like that. But Yami wasn't that impressed. He started to see some clear images from his past. Thoughtful he remembered his past. Those images linked him to 5000 years ago in Egypt, when he was a Pharaoh.
"Look at that Yugi. A museum?" said Rymer.
"It looks like." Answered Yugi.
"Well let's go inside." said Rymer.
The museum like building was big, but really big. They entered. The museum was a deserted place. They walked trough a big hall. Scripts and hieroglyphics were displayed on the walls. But Rymer and Yugi saw a small ray of light. It was a door. An opened door.
"Ok. That's not quite right." Said Rymer.
But he and Yugi continued walking to the door. They entered a big room with more carvings and stone tablets than the hall's. But for some reason one tablet was shining. A person was standing before them. It looked like a young woman. She was wearing a white cloak.
"Welcome back my Pharaoh." She said taking her white cloak off. Black hair and green eyes were revealed.
"Yugi, you know her?" asked Rymer.
"No, but I think Yami does." Said Yugi. And he transformed himself into Yami.
"Don't know..." said Yami.
"I'm glad you are here Pharaoh. My name is Luna. And I'm here to tell you about a legend of millenniums. I will refresh your memory Pharaoh." Said Luna.
They looked at the tablet:
Translation:
Before Egypt's first dawn,
An evil force was torn,
Time didn't matter,
Cause the dragons will appear,
And the chaos would begin,
And the Phoenix Hero will arise,
And alone he would be,
As for the shadows of tomorrow,
Sand will exist,
The Hero will fall,
To a world never wished,
As he gets trapped,
His heart will twist,
Shadow games will appear,
Millenium items, Pharaohs,
And wish,
For the new dawn,
Three heroes will gain,
The power of dragons will obtain,
Slay the new evil,
And protect the world,
From a never-endless war...
"Before the sands of Egypt appeared, an ancient magic was sealed away by some mysterious being. This being was treated like a hero for those who now form Egypt. The Hero made their lives happier. But suddenly the great power of the hero overcame his will. The Hero fell to the darkness and ruled with darkness. The legend stated that whoever possessed everybody's trust would fell to the darkness. The Hero was sealed away in the world he created. The Shadow Realm."
"There, his powers couldn't be controlled by anyone even himself. So his power splited into the monsters you know Yami, and the shadow games started. You know the rest. But the legend says that new heroes will awake when time was right. The time is running out. Those heroes will be able to hold Eternus, Osiris and Anubis and use their power. Pharaoh, power unbelievable is growing within every second. When the Timechain breaks, the world will be like that one, when the sun never came up."
Rymer and Yugi stayed very surprised about the legend. Yami started to understand and so did Rymer and Yugi.
"But even if one of the heroes falls to the darkness the other two will win?" asked Rymer.
"The legend doesn't state that." Said Luna. "You have to find it out by yourselves: Heroes of the Millennium."
"Wait, we are those heroes?" asked Yugi.
"This tablet only lights up when the heroes are near. According to ancient magic you are the heroes." Said Luna. "Please protect the world from devastation."
Rymer and Yugi returned to the hotel. Girla wasn't there but they both went to sleep. After that kind of days... you need this kind of rest.
"You are not getting with the plan." Said a black figure. "You'll need to be faster, then you'll receive what you want."
"..."
"It's that so. Forget him. He doesn't... Or you want to be fooled again?" asked the black figure.
"...But..."
"Don't speak in front of me. It doesn't matter. He won't love you as much as I do...So be it. Don't expect me to forgive you again. Stop being nice. You know he doesn't want you!! Now do what i tell you!!"
A tear escaped from the green eyes of the other figure...
