TWO WEEKS LATER...
I stood in front of the mansion. I wouldn't leave even if I wanted to, something was calling me. I went into the dining room; the room adjoined to the room with the piano, Seto was there.
"Are you ok, Katy?" he asked. (Hold me, talk, leave me be for now.)
"Could you hold me please?" I asked. He smiled and took me into his arms, murmuring comforting words in Dragon Tongue. I smiled as he kissed my hair, and released me. He had changed for the better, and I loved my brother for that.
"You better get going if something's calling you and all," he said kindly. I nodded and went into the piano room, Yugi was there.
"I know this is hard for you love. Is there anything I can do for you?" He asked. (Hold me, talk, kiss, leave me be.) I went forward into his open arms. He held me and leaned against a wall for support. He sang to me an old song as he rocked me slightly, caressing my hair and holding me close. I snuggled against his chest for comfort. He smiled.
"I love you," he said, "I'll always be with you."
"I know. It's just hard right now Yugi. I loved my grandfather." I said. He hummed the song this time, rocking me gently until I relaxed.
"See, you can relax Katy. Now you better find the source of that call," he instructed, "come back if you need me." He gave me a final hug and a kiss on the cheek and finally released me. I went up the stairs that were in the main room, but the door to the second floor was locked. I tried the key, but it broke.
"Joey got himself locked up there Katy. I'm trying to find the other key, you just broke the first," Mokuba called at the bottom of the stairs, partially joking.
"That's fine I guess, as long as he doesn't break anything," I said, eying the door.
"I won't. It's too scary up here so I'd be too afraid," Joey called from the other side of the door. I smiled and headed downstairs again. I went into the library/living room where Tristen and Tea were.
"Hey Katy. Do you need to sit down for a minute and talk?" Tea asked.
Yes," I said. I sat down next to Tea and Tristen began to tell me of their observations about this room and the study in the back of the library. I decided to check this out. I thanked them and they said they'd do it anytime.
"Hello Katy. I was just telling Tristen about this clock. It doesn't work properly. We want to help you in any way possible, so I thought it was significant. Can I help anymore with anything?" he asked.
"I need a hug," I said weakly and he laughed.
"Anything for instruction," he said, "or attention."
"No, I'd go to my boyfriend for that," I said. He grinned, but hugged me anyways. I went to the clock and turned the hour hand to try and fix it. As soon as it landed on 3:33p.m., and a door opened behind me. Duke stared in amazement.
"Um... hey, I heard to door, I'll go and see who it is with everyone. You check out the room, or what ever it is. I'll tell the others what you found," Duke said, then ran out to tell everyone. I also had the feeling he wouldn't let anyone back here, so I had some privacy. This was after all, my grandfather. I walked in; it seemed like quite a long hallway, until I arrived at what seemed like a private study. It had pictures and documents on the wall and lots of books on the shelves and some on the desk. One on the desk caught my eye, along with a sword on the wall opposite the desk, but I'd focus on that sword later. The book was large and leather bound and it looked like a book that was what grandfather had focused on. I slowly opened the book and I immediately sensed a connection to the book, a deep one. I also sensed death's presence around the book. What was this? I began to read the book, it was in a diary sort of format, and I saw my grandfather's handwriting. I began to read it, interested fully, maybe there was a clue. It was a letter to me!!
Dearest Katy,
If you are reading this, I have died. In my time with this destiny, I have learned what many people should never have to know, about fear, death, hatred, and power. But now the completion of this burden and destiny passes onto you, for you and you alone to complete. If you have friends to help you complete this task, but be wary of this, evil rests everywhere. I have learned about fear in ways that would break the hardest man into sobs and fear everything about life. They would even learn there were worst things than death. I paused in my reading. This was different that the grandfather I thought I knew. I wiped my eyes, and I hadn't realized I was crying a little. I looked down to continue.
If you do come to read this, know I must have failed. You must find all the chapters of the struggle against the darkness and finish what I had begun. If you read on my granddaughter, you will learn what fear really is. I am sorry. the letter ended there, signed by my grandfather. I turned the page and saw an old sheet. It looked like the first chapter page.
"Grandfather, you should have told me. Of course I would have loved to help in any way I could of," I murmured and I began to read the page.
***FLASH***
The tome opens.
"To think that once I could not see beyond the veil of our reality... to see those who dwell behind. My life now has purpose, for I have learned the frailty of flesh and bone... I was once a fool," a strange voice spoke. I watched as the picture started to move.
Pious: Rest the men, they will need their strength. Make sure they take enough water, and are in high spirits. Today's battle was but one of many if we are to complete our mission. (One of two soldiers leave.)
Other soldier: Do you really believe that is exists, Centurion?
Pious: I don't doubt our Emperor's beliefs... or his orders, but if we are to retrieve the artifact, then we must be strong... and patient...
(The other soldier departs.)
Voice: (Male) Come to us... Pious Augustus (Pious follows the voice, drawing out his gladius.)
Voice: (Female) Come to us... Pious Augustus...
(After watching him go through the desert, he came upon a site with five monoliths arranged in a circle, with one bearing the runes of the three Ancients. As he enters the circle, yellow light leaps from the stones, connecting them in a pentagon. Pious walks to the center of the ring. The light flies towards him and teleports him from the area.)
Pious was taken inside the hill by these stones. In front of him was a corridor and dead bodies. He went forward and then the zombies came alive. He killed them, finishing them off with a special move. Then he went into the next room. As I was watching this, I had a sudden feeling of dread, like this man, Pious, had been the cause of all of this. He had gotten much farther when I was lost in thought. He was now at a room where a statue of him was and was instructed by a mysterious voice to destroy it, to learn targeting. Then he was heading into another corridor. Then, after time had passed and more zombie deaths, he arrived in a room with three artifacts. A blue one, a red one, and a green one. He chose the middle blue one and collapsed as blue lightning leaps out of the artifact and filled him. It burst out of his hands and eyes and he was screaming. Pious grabs one of the pedestals and struggles to his feet. He is a new name, Pious the Liche. His skin is ravaged. His armor is black. The picture began to freeze.
Pious: Aeons have passed since then, and I have learned much. All at once I understood. The forces of the multiverse all made sense, under the transcending power of Ulyaoth. No mountain too high. No city too far. Face me and you will surely perish! (He glances up at me, the picture freezes!) I screamed. PURE EVIL!!!
