Chapter 13
Shadi waited patiently outside of the Kame Game Shop till a black limo pulled up. Yugi and Yami came out first and to Shadi's surprise, Kaiba came out last.
"Mokuba, stay in here till we come back. Understand?" You can hear a young boy's voice saying 'Yes, sir!' and Kaiba closes the door. The trio walked up to Shadi and Yami spoke.
"Evening Shadi. Shall we do this now or would you like to settle here first then continue?" Kaiba scoffed but held his tongue knowing Shadi could change his mind.
"I believe I shall start now my Pharoah. I doubt any of you would want me to stall any longer than I have." Kaiba smirked at his answer and followed everyone inside then upstairs to Yugi's and Yami's room. Everyone had blank expressions, even Yugi, as they saw Sakura staring out a window blankly.
"It seems she's trying to fight the bonds placed on her." Kaiba's eyes widened in surprise.
"Didn't she lock herself away and not put away?" Shadi raised an eyebrow in question.
"That's what I thought also from what you told me but clearly this was against her will also." Everyone was shocked but only Yugi was the one who showed it on his face. Shadi spun Sakura around so she faced him. For a fleeting second her eyes held so much unhappiness that it made Shadi flinch.
"Sakura, I will release you now. Please stay calm and don't struggle." Shadi pulled out his Millennium Item, the Egyptian Ankh, from under his robes. He was about to hold it up to her forehead to enter her soul but a crash of the door was heard below and halted all activities. Running was heard and Siris appeared before everyone. She was huffing and puffing for air but Shadi mearly looked at her.
"Shadi, as your Queen I command you to put that key down. You'll let hell lose if you so much as undo one lock off her soul." Shadi raised an eyebrow and let his hands fall to his sides. Yugi nearly exploded.
"Why!? I want my sister back?! Why are you preventing us?! Just tell me why!" Yugi sank to his knees in tears and Yami kneeled beside him to try and comfort him. Kaiba held an angry look and glared at Siris.
"Do you have any idea what you're doing here? Are you that jealous of your hikari to lock her away from her loved ones?!" Siris was silent but held his gaze in her own blank eyes.
"If you release her soul then you also release the one that's trying to take her over. I only locked both of them away to protect this world. She has to defeat this thing on her own. When the fight is over only one soul will remain and you sure as hell better hope it's not that demon that was slowly taking over her body!" Siris stopped talking when she was out of breath. She fell down to all fours and clutched her head in agony.
"Hikari! Please forgive me! It was for the best!" Siris let her tears flow and fall to the ground. Shadi looked at her knowingly. They all looked at Sakura quickly when they heard a quivering voice.
"I thought you all cared enough about your fucking friend to release her and not push her away." Sakura had a menacing smirk and her eyes was glowingt red. Her hands where claws once more and her outfit had changed also. She wore black leather pants and a torn black tang-top that stopped short below her breasts. Her laughing was heard throughout the whole building.
"Don't you just love my new body?! It's enough to spell bound you all!" More laughter. Siris rose up off the floor, her eyes hidden. Kaiba only stared at his love but also wasn't his love. Yami quickly grabbed Yugi and hid him behind himself. Sakura sneered and smacked Shadi into the wall with a flick of her finger. She used her other hand and made a rising motion. Siris was held off the floor by a mysterious force and seemed as if she was choking.
"Yes.... This soul is so full of power and malice! She hates you all for not helping her and now wants you all to die......." Her hand looked as if squeezing something that wasn't there and for each time her hand came closer together, Siris' seemed to grow more weaker at this mysterious grip. Yami threw himself into Sakura, knocking both of them down.
"Hurry Kaiba! Quickly get everyone out of here! I'll handle her!" Sakura grabbed Yami by the collar and threw him out the window.
"Yami!" yelled Yugi while trying to reach out to him. Sakura jumped out the window also in hot pursuit.
"Come on! We have to go! Yami will be fine!" Kaiba helped Shadi and pulled Yugi with him. Siris got up coughing and she quickly followed. They all ran to the limo like there was no tomorrow and Kaiba yelled at the driver to go to the Kaiba mansion. Yugi was crying. He lost his sister and possibly his Yami also. You could only imagine all the pain on the young boy's shoulders.
"Why couldn't we wait for Yami? Why couldn't we get him...?" Yugi mumbled through his tears. Kaiba actually felt sympathy for the boy but left him alone. Mokuba saw when Yami was thrown from the window and understood what happened. No one talked; no one even made a move to comfort one another.
"Pharaoh! How dare you interfere!" Sakura stood before Yami menacingly. He was panting from fatigue and blood was trickling from his mouth and scrapes was all up and down his arms. The fall didn't hurt as bad as he thought and had run to the park to protect the public.
"I will not let you harm them!" said Yami firmly. Sakura pursued Yami with her claws but Yami parried with his own protective barrier. She banged against it countless time, trying to break it but it still held strong. She shrieked in frustration but stopped suddenly alert and looked to a row of bushes. She looked almost like she was afraid and Yami took this opportunity to knock her out cold.
"I'm truly sorry Sakura but this was for your own good." Yami wasted no time in taking off for the Kaiba mansion. I hope the others are ok.
Kaiba sat in the living room on one of his couches. Siris sat on a one seater and Yugi was on an opposite couch from Kaiba. He held his head in his hands in silence and Kaiba merely had his hands clasped in front of his face in deep thought. Shadi was laid on the floor and was looked after by Mokuba who was silent. Siris seemed to be the only one who took this better than everyone else.
"Sakura, how could you give up? Please understand it was a forced choice to lock you away. Please hikari, understand...." Mumbled Siris more to herself than to the others but everyone heard. There was a loud slam of the front door but no one paid it much attention.
"Hey, what's with the long faces...?" Yami was standing in the entranceway of the living room with trashed clothes and a bloody frame. Yugi quickly got up and ran to him, capturing Yami in a tight bearhug.
"I thought you died.... I thought you left just like my sister..." Yugi said between sobs. Kaiba flinched at the mention of Yugi's sister but he stared straight ahead in concentration. Yami smiled and hobbled over to the couch Kaiba sat on and collapsed into a seating postion. Siris only glanced when Shadi moaned and slowly got up, clutching his head with one hand.
"My Queen, my apologizes but your method of containing this evil has went down hill considerably." Shadi sat himself into a sitting position with help from Mokuba. Siris only flinched at the remark.
"You, explain yourself." Kaiba said harshly. Siris only stared at her feet ignoring everything.
"She'll pick us off one by one...... I have to stop this.... But how...?" Siris was mumbling to herself then she quickly got up.
"Yami, where is she?" said Siris in a commanding tone. Yami only gave her an irritated look.
"I left her at the park. I doubt she's there anymore. If she's after us then she'll be here in due time to exact her vengeance." Siris clenched her fists and headed to the door.
"Just where do you think your going?!" yelled Kaiba. Siris stopped.
"I have to stop this before it goes any further than it has. I won't be coming back. Good-bye." Said Siris without looking back. Shadi tried to stop her but she ran off.
"Hey get back here!" yelled Kaiba helplessly. Kaiba sighed and slapped a hand to his forehead in frustration.
"Damn Yamis. Always goin off tryin to be heroes..." Kaiba said to himself. Yami overheard and fumed quietly. Yugi only thought to himself. If Sakura dies then what happens to Siris...?
"Yami, if I die of some mysterious cause then what becomes of you?" Yami snapped in surprise.
"Oh, Ra.... Then I wouldn't exist either.... Siris is going to dipose of both of them! Kaiba, we have to stop Siris at all costs or we could lose both Siris and Sakura, forever!" Kaiba quickly got up and ran towards the door with Yami and Yugi in pursuit.
"Sakura! I will not let you harm them without going through me first! You can not experience the pain I was put through!" Sakura sneered and glared at her aibou with those same glowing red eyes.
"You say you know pain?! You have yet to experience my pain, my agony, my suffering...." Hissed Sakura. She lunged at Siris with her claws who only dodged it in turn.
"I refuse to lose to the likes of you!" screamed out Siris as she threw an energy ball at Sakura mid air. Sakura smacked it aside and jumped up to meet Siris in a blow for blow fight. They landed on their feet still fighting but Siris jumped back.
"Oh, baby got a boo boo? Too bad. Handle it!" said Sakura as she sneered and rushed towards Siris holding her claws out menacingly.
"Siris! Don't do it! You know as well as I do what will happen!" Siris turned around quickly to see Kaiba, Yami, and Yugi running towards them. Sakura sneered at the approaching group.
"Seems as though this girl has a soft point for those boys. Tell me Siris, why is it that she despises you so much? Is it because you locked her away like an unwanted visitor?" Taunted Sakura.
"Shut up! You don't know anything!" Siris threw a punch but Sakura caught it within her grasp. They stayed like that a few moments with Sakura laughing madly but then she threw Siris aside like a rag doll.
"Enough play, I'm bored." Siris hit her head on a rock and was knocked out cold. Yami gasped. Sakura laughed madly and looked at the group with malice.
"You can't bring her back. She won't listen to you!" Sakura laughed more but didn't expect Kaiba to tackle her. Kaiba held Sakura under him and held her arms by her head.
"Yami! Yugi! Get Siris out of here!" Surprisingly, Sakura didn't struggle. She merely looked into his face with a kind of blank expression.
"This girl is too fond of you. I can't even fight back..." Mumbled Sakura who watched Kaiba's face as he yelled for everyone to keep Siris safe. Kaiba then turned back towards Sakura and she swore she saw him blushing.
"Why are you doing this?" Sakura merely glared at him but made no effort to reply.
"Well?!" Sakura scoffed.
"Well, I do it for the pleasure of seeing all of your faces show all the pain and misery I've been subjected to." Kaiba sneered.
"I want Sakura back. The real Sakura, not the possessed one!" Sakura's eyes flickered in surprise but she narrowed her gaze to hide it.
"I am the real Sakura! If you wanted the weakling you knew long ago, then she has already left! She doesn't want to come back!" Her outburst surprised Kaiba and herself. Kaiba's gaze softened slightly.
"I will not take no for an answer." Said Kaiba softly. Before Sakura could reply Kaiba held her mouth in a passionate kiss.
Sakura banged on her invisible prison.
"Kaiba! Please help me!" No one answered her except that menacing laugh. All of a sudden that laugh started to scream out in pain.
"Nooo..!! This can't be happening!! What is this?!!" There was mores screaming then it disappeared all together. There was no more voices, no more invisible walls, there was just her and her dark room. She was in control again. When Sakura opened her eyes she saw Kaiba withdrawing from a kiss.
"Kaiba...?" Kaiba smirked and got up, releasing her from his grasp. Sakura sat up and clutched her head not prepared for the headache.
"What am I doing here? What happened to Egypt?" Kaiba snickered and pulled Sakura into a hug.
"Don't ever scare me like that again." Sakura was confused but held him close.
"Sure, whatever you say. I still don't know what your talking about though." Sakura thought for a moment and remembered something.
"Where's Siris?" hissed Sakura like she was possessed again and made Kaiba do a double take at her. He gave her an odd look when he saw it was still the real Sakura, just a very angry one.
"You knocked her unconscious in your brawl with her. Yami and Yugi took her back to the mansion probably or just around here somewhere." Sakura sneered evilly.
"Good because I need a laugh. This is going to be fun..." Sakura had such a mocking tone and she laughed at what she said. She got up and helped Kaiba up. They walked towards his mansion in silence, which made Kaiba uncomfortable. She's the same yet she seems like she's still under control by that.... Thing. Sakura looked over at Kaiba when she sensed his stare after a while.
"Something wrong?" Kaiba blinked and looked away realizing he was staring. A small blush appeared on his face which made Sakura smile.
"Nothing. Nothing at all." She shrugged and continued walking.
Yami set Siris down on Kaiba's couch.
"Yugi, go get the first aid. I have to wrap up these wounds all along her arms." Yami thought quietly to himself as little Yugi started to run to the nearest bathroom. I can't believe Siris tried to kill herself and Sakura. Just what was she thinking? A small moan was heard breaking Yami from his thoughts. Siris was up.
