A/N: Let it be known that this is my first Yu-Gi-Oh fanfic, so it might not be what you expect, sorry. I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh, but this idea...entirely mine, (I think). This, 'lalada' means that a character is thinking, and this (lalada) is me talking to you, feel special. This is in the POV of a certain Tomb Raider that we all know and love.
Chapter One
Alone
'The powers are mine, all except that one last piece. I have the Rod, the Eye, the Balance, the Ankh, the Ring, and the Necklace. I'm only missing that one piece! I must get it from the Pharaoh, but how? I must work quickly...'
I slinked into the Pharaoh's bedchamber. He wasn't around, nor was the Millennium Puzzle. This would make my job a lot harder, for all I could do now, was hide. I felt the sword at my side, sharper than anything ever seen to this world. It had been named the Sword of Destruction (yes, this is a real card, and yes, the Tomb Raider made it real).
'The curtain would make an excellent vantage point, temporarily.' I slunk towards the curtain and it wrapped around me. Behind the curtain, everything appeared red, blood red. I would have to wait hours for the Pharaohs return.
-----Hours Later-----
The door to his bedchamber slowly opened. Two men walked in, the Pharaoh and his lead guard, Jonouchi. Jonouchi was a buffoon, yet still, he had befriended the insolent Pharaoh.
"I understand what you are saying, Lord Jonouchi. This man is very dangerous. He has all but one of the pieces, which makes me his last target. But I will tell you one thing, Jonouchi, he will not get it. I am going to have guards lined at my door. If it makes you fell better, my friend, you, yourself, can be one of the guards at my door," the pharaoh finally said.
"You do me much honor, your Grace. I will not fail you," the buffoon bowed low to his leader. He turned on his heel and left the room, leaving only the Pharaoh and myself in the Pharaoh's quarters. I began to meditate, waiting for the time to strike.
-----Nightfall-----
"I must be getting to sleep," the Pharaoh said to his guards. I 'awoke' to his voice, knowing that my chance was very near. "I need to be prepared for tomorrows meeting with the councilors to solve the matter that could send us to war."
"Yes, your Grace," Jonouchi's voice rang. "I will see you in the morning, then."
In a few moments I could hear the soft breathing of the Pharaoh's restful sleep. It was time I took my chance.
I slid from behind the curtains, and conjured myself to his bedside. I drew the Sword of Destruction from its deadly sheath. I watched, as the sword seemed to breathe in the darkness around it, as if sensing it's master's will, it, alone, delved into the sleeping Pharaoh's heart. With out a sound, the Pharaoh died, painfully in his sleep.
I carefully slipped the Millennium Puzzle off of the late Pharaoh's neck, and placed it about my own. I just needed to return to my domain, and place the objects near one another. I left the sword plunged into his heart, and left him to bleed until morning, where all would know the Pharaoh's demise.
Rest, my Pharaoh, rest...
A/N: I am truly sorry about ending the chapter here, and so short, but I must, or lest I spoil the rest, and never end this tale. Please leave me a review, any would be nice, and tell me what you think, and if this style suits you, for I normally don't write like this.
