Ok, I know I won't have a lot of time to post a lot but I will still be continuing this story whenever I have the time. I will definitely try and make this post as long as possible, I'm running low on ideas, time to write, and time to type this up.

I am so thankful for your support LadyoftheShire. Thank you to your friend as well, I feel honored to get a compliment from you if it is a rare thing. I'm dedicating this chapter to the two of you, it'll have a lot more action in it then the previous chapters.

Chapter 6 The frantic journey and the Pharaoh's ships.

Disclaimer: I still do not own Yu-Gi-Oh though I wish I did. I sadly only own this plot, Setsuna, and Khayan.

Setsuna knew that even at the speed she was pushing her horse too, it would be a three day journey and that she would be cutting it close, but she just had to get there on time. She urged the horse to go as fast it possible could through the dangerous dessert landscape.

On the second day of her journey Setsuna passed a small village. Unawares at first to the fact that she was being followed by a group of bandits, she was very shocked when the leader of the group pulled in front of her forcing her to a stop. She stared at the man unsure of what she should do. He had silver white hair, a scar on his cheek, was well built, and very tall.

"Well what do we have here? A little girl traveling all by herself. Important looking to judging by your clothes." He said in a deep husky voice. "What do you think guys does she have anything worth taking?" He asked turning to the other four men in the group. They laughed wickedly nodding their heads. "Hand over any gold you have girlie."

"I have no time for morons like you…" Setsuna said glaring at him, she guided her horse around the man and urged to run as fast as possible to escape the gang.

She could hear them chasing after her and slowly catching up. She put all her concentration into urging her horse to go faster. She was suddenly jerked from the steed and thrown down into the sand. The five men on their horses formed a circle around her. The leader jumped down off his horse and grabbed Setsuna's arm tightly forcing her to her feet.

"I'll ask nicely one more time. Hand over your gold girlie."

"I wouldn't suggest angering Khalid anymore then he already is if I were you girl, he is the king of all thieves." One of the other gang members said with a malicious grin.

(A.N. real quick. I just thought I would let you all know that Khalid is Yami Bakura's name in ancient Egypt.)

Setsuna tried to yank her arm free of the man's grasp but had no luck causing Khalid to only tighten his grip even more.

"Fine you win," Setsuna said pulling her pouch of gold out of her pocket and handing it to him, then unclasped her necklace with her free hand and handed that over as well.

"Very good choice, now I should slit your neck for trying to escape but I'm in the mood to be nice," Khalid said throwing her away from him and climbing back onto his horse. The group then rode off laughing cruelly.

Setsuna stood up rubbing her arm where Khalid had grabbed her. There was a big black and blue bruise rising in the area. It took her a little while to locate her missing horse and after climbing back on she continued to rising cursing at the time she had lost.

"I don't think I am going to make it on time!"

by the time night rolled around and then morning again Setsuna was frantic. It was now only a matter of hours before the attack.

It took Setsuna three more hours for her to reach the outskirts of her village. She rode swiftly to the top of the hill just outside the village and gasped at the sight unfolding below her.

The Syrian ships were already coming down the Nile and docking. Setsuna watched in horror as the vision from her dream came to life. She once again saw the slaughter of hundreds of innocent people. She watched a soldier chase down her little sister. Looking away as she had done in the vision she saw the fleet of the Pharaoh's ships. She watched the great battle unfold, stood fascinated, unable to look away from the scene playing out below.

She was finally able to look away when she heard someone coming up behind her. She quickly spun around to see who it was and came face to face with the Priest Seth.

"Well, I see the little girl managed to have a prediction. I'm surprised you actually made it all the way here alive. Shame really. You had better not get to full of yourself though. There is no way a little girl's luck will be able to stand up to my skill," he said glaring at her coldly.

"You just fear the Pharaoh has discovered someone with more talent then you. Do you honestly think I enjoy this?! Having to witness the death of my family and friends twice! Giving up my entire LIFE to have these stupid visions?! I don't care if your more skilled then me or not! I would give anything to have a normal life instead of spending EVERY SECOND studying!" Setsuna yelled bitterly. After all that had happened she had finally reached the breaking point.

"I would love nothing but to go away now and leave you to your bitterness and self pity, but I have been sent to bring you to the pharaoh. He wishes to speak with you." Seth said turning and walking away down the hill toward the Nile.

Why bother fighting this anymore? My destiny has obviously been chosen for me by the gods. I am not meant to have my own life I guess. Setsuna thought to herself bitterly.

Seth led her to the ship that was docked away from the village on the edge of the river. Atem was watching the battle from aboard the ship calmly waiting the arrival of Seth and Setsuna.

The priest walked onto the ship and over to the Pharaoh. With a bow he announced, "I have returned with the girl my Pharaoh," before stepping to the side to allow her room to come forward.

She stepped up in front of the Pharaoh and bowed.

Pharaoh Atem smiled, "Welcome back. I am quite please with how things have gone. You have proven your skills to me and I would like it very much if you returned to my palace to be trained by Seth to be an official Priestess."

At this last comment Seth face faulted, "B-but you highness! How can you even be sure she is trustworthy?! For all we know this could have been a carefully planned scheme! You can't honestly expect me to train this-this child!" he exclaimed indignantly.

"If I am hearing correctly Seth it sounds as if you are contradicting my judgment. Setsuna will return and you will train her." Pharaoh Atem said sternly.

Setsuna had remained silent throughout the argument of the two. The Pharaoh, forgetting she had never actually agreed, began to explain the arrangements he had made for her while Seth stood to the side glaring.

Ok everyone that's all for now, this is a really long post for me and I hope you guys like it. Hopefully I will have time to get chapter seven up soon. I will be bringing in the actual Millennium Items soon. In the mean time, if I have any reviewers left please comment. I am even up for flames at this point!
