" Tea, what are you doing with the Pharaoh's Millenium Necklace?" Ishizu questions Tea almost forcefully.
" I need to know something Ishizu, something I think is very important. Something's wrong with Yugi, and he won't tell me what it is. I think it has something that the Millenium Necklace showed him, so I…borrowed it from him."
" This isn't like you Tea, you've always trusted Yugi." The older Egyptian woman asks the younger Japanese woman.
" Well, I always did trust him, but now he…he isn't trusting me. I need to know what the necklace showed him, I tried using it, but it wouldn't respond. Since you once owned it, I thought you'd be able to show me."
" Tea, I gave up the Millenium Necklace to the Pharaoh because I didn't want to use it again. As much as I want to help you, I just can't."
" But you do want me to return the necklace, right?" Such a dirty trick really didn't seem like Tea, but she had to have her answer, " I really need to know Ishizu, if you tell me I'll be able to give the necklace back."
Ishizu sighed, she now had to tell Tea what she needed to know. Not because of the threat, she knew that was empty, but because of the look in Tea's eyes. Her eyes looked into Ishizu's pleadingly, not the eyes to go with the threat she just made, but she really couldn't help it. This was truly something that was important for Tea to be this adamant about it.
" Alright, I'll see what I can do Tea." She says at length.
" Thank you Ishizu." Tea says, giving her the magical item.
" I'll try my best to see what Yugi did, but please, don't expect much." Ishizu says putting the Millenium Necklace around her neck for the first time in several weeks. She was out of practice, but she still knew how to use the Millenium Necklace's power, " Millenium Necklace, lend me your power! Show to us that which the young Yugi has seen with your power!"
Without questioning Ishizu's words, the Millenium Necklace shines to life with a magical light. And suddenly the soft exterior of the Egyptian Exhibit transforms into the golden halls of a very rich man. The walls are decorated with Egyptian hieroglyphics, thus telling Tea where they are.
" This is interesting, this image must have been for the Pharaoh, and not Yugi." Ishizu says.
" But his destiny has been fulfilled, hasn't it?"
" Not yet, he still must unlock his memory."
" But still…something tells me that this has to do with me."
Now here came something that neither female could see coming, a woman, which appears to look a lot like Tea, wearing the garb of a high priestess, is walking along side the high priest. A man with the strength of character that makes nearly any man bow down to him, a man who looked like, Seto Kaiba. They were walking down the gloriously ordained hallway silently, but one very important detail, highlighted by the magic of the Millenium Necklace, is noticed by the viewers. A gold band on the ring finger of their left hands, into the rings, the hieroglyphic for "love" was etched.
" Oh…my…GOD!" Tea screams at the top of her lungs.
Thankfully they were only viewing the past and were not actually there; otherwise the entire city would have heard her.
The high priest leaves his wife in their chambers, and leaves the temple to meet with the Pharaoh. His wife sits on the bed where she hears an old and twisted voice address her, one she recognized, but one that the futuristic spectators obviously could not.
" Well fortuneteller, you promised me happiness unbound, but all I feel is grief." Tea's past self says.
" Well at lease she seems like me…" The future Tea remarks.
" Indeed I did promise you happiness unbound, but exactly when that happiness occurs is not going to be shown immediately. Though I swear to you that you will thank me, for my advice, in due time." The old woman addressed as the fortuneteller replies to the wife of the high priest.
Now Tea was speechless, what could this old woman mean by "in due time"? And what was with this about true happiness and this marriage between her and Kaiba? Or was it just a joke? Her answer came as something she would have only seen in a dream, no, nightmare.
The old woman turns her head, and her eyes though what would be to her the wall, peer right into Tea's eyes. The gaze is held all the while the fortuneteller repeats her next statement, " In due time my lady, in due time. In due time will you be pleased to have heard from me."
The old woman leaves the room, and the past Tea, in a scuff. The married woman looks around her room, surely she had all that any woman could have wanted, but she didn't feel that she could possibly be made happy by any of it. She was the trophy wife of the high priest, smiling for the people. At this time however, she felt nothing for the high priest, and wished that she had never agreed to follow the fortuneteller's advice.
