CHAPTER 1

"Yugi's Back"

Dartz is on his island. Then suddenly a mysterious bright light emits from the port hole to the inner caverns, and the stone tablet containing Yugi's soul shatters and a mysterious figure appeared in the port hole and all of Oricouis stones and all of the Seal Of Oricouis magic cards lost there power. Then The Seal Of Oricouis around Yami and Weevil Underwood faded and disappeared, as did the one around Rex Raptor and Joey. Then the Egyptian God Cards disappeared and reappeared in Yugi and Yami's deck unbeknownst to Yami. Then a huge ball of green energy appeared in the figure's hands, then the figure fired it deep into the island and, a shadow barrier appeared around the figure, protecting him, and the whole island blew up, and freed all the souls from the stone. Then there was a bright flash and the figure disappeared and reappeared above Yami.

"All that severed the Lafathin shall perass." The mysterious figure said.

Then Yami looked up and saw the figure as the figure fired shadow magic at Weevil and Weevil blew up. Yami cover his eyes. Then the figure landed in front of Yami, with his back turned to him. Téa's eyes widen in shock.

"Yami, he's dressed like you in that tablet!" Téa exclaimed.

'She's right, he is dressed like a Pharaoh. I wonder who he is.' Yami thought to himself.

"Who am I, huh?" The mysterious figure asked.

"How did you know I was wondering that?" Yami asked.

Then the Millennium Puzzle started glowing brightly. A bright glow also came from the mysterious figure unnoticed by anyone but the figure.

"It looks like it's time for me to go." The mysterious figure said.

Then the figure faded and disappeared seemingly into thin air. Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yami returned to it.

"Huh?" Yami asked in confusion.

Then Yami looked around.

"My soul room. What am I doing in here? For that matter how am I here, unless..."

Yami's voice cut off and Yami ran to the door of his soul room and out into the hall. Then he ran into Yugi's soul room. Yugi was standing there looking at his hands blinking in confusion.

MEANWHILE WITH JOEY AND TRISTIN

"What the heck happened to The Seal Of Oricouis?" Tristin asked.

"I don't know, man." Joey said.

MEANWHILE INSIDE THE MILLENNIUM PUZZLE

"Yugi?" Yami asked in disbelieve.

"Huh?" Yugi asked in confusion.

Then Yugi turned to face Yami.

"You're back." Yami gasped in shock.

Yugi smiled at Yami and Yami smiled back at Yugi. Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yami left it. Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yami turned control back over to Yugi. Téa stood up.

"Yami!" Téa exclaimed.

Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yami took control over from Yugi. Yami spun to face Téa. Yugi appeared in spirit form.

"I have wonderful news, Téa." Yami said smiling at Téa.

"What is it?" Téa asked in confusion.

Yami smiled at Yugi.

"Don't ask me how. But, Yugi's back." Yami said.

Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yami turned control back over to Yugi. Then Yugi jumped a crossed the gap and landed in front of her. Yugi took Téa's hand.

"Let's get outta here." Yugi said.

Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yugi and Téa disappeared and reappeared next to Joey and Tristin.

"Pharaoh, what are you doing here?" Tristin asked in confusion.

Yugi glared at Rex Raptor angrily.

"Join Weevil in the afterlife." Yugi hissed out.

Yugi fired shadow magic at Rex Raptor and Rex blew up. Joey, Téa and Tristin covered their eyes. There wasn't a trace of Rex or Weevil left.

"What did ya do!" Joey demanded grabbing what he thought was Yami's collar.

Yugi shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Yugi asked in confusion.

'Yugi, why haven't you told Joey and Tristin you're back.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I'm not sure how to tell them.' Yugi thought to Yami.

"Joey, stop it! Yugi's not exactly himself right now! He just escaped from Dartz!" Téa exclaimed.

Joey head snapped over to her.

"WHAT!" Joey demanded.

"Yugi's back." Téa said smiling at Joey.

Joey stepped back in shock, releaseing Yugi's collar as he did.

"Yug?" Joey asked in confusion.

Yugi smiled at Joey.

"Yeah, it's me." Yugi said.

'I'm glad you're back.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I know.' Yugi thought to Yami.

"Any idea how we're goin' get back?" Joey asked.

"Leave that to me." Yugi said.

Yugi closed his eyes and crossed his fingers. Then a blinding flash emitted from the Millennium Puzzle and the group disappeared and reappeared in front of the Hawkins's trailer.

"It's the Pharaoh and the gang." Duke said.

Rebecca ran out with Duke right behind her.

"What's going on? What are you guys doing here?" Rebecca asked.

"Tell her, man." Joey said.

"Tell her what?" Duke asked.

Professor Hawkins walked out of the trailer and over to Rebecca, resting his hands on her shoulders. Yugi sighed.

"It's about Yugi." Yugi said.

"What about Yugi!" Rebecca demanded.

Yugi looked at the ground sadly. Then he looked up smirking slightly.

"I'm back." Yugi said.

"Yugi!" Rebecca exclaimed running over and hugging Yugi.

Yugi gasped. Yugi's eyes narrowed.

"GET BACK, REBECCA!" Yugi shouted pushing Rebecca to Joey.

Joey caught Rebecca frowning at Yugi.

"What's goin' on, Yug?" Joey asked with concern.

'Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

Then suddenly a mysterious figure appeared in a bright flash.

"Hello, nephew." Akunadin said.

"LEAVE, AKUNADIN!" Yugi shouted in anger.

Akunadin laughed evilly.

"Not going to happen, nephew." Akunadin said coldly.

"Who da hell is dat guy, Yug!" Joey demanded with concern.

"My uncle. He is single handily responsible for my father's death." Yugi said in anger.

"Aww, are you still mad about how I put you under that shadow spell and made you try to kill your brother and your father died to save him? And it's all your fault!" Akunadin exclaimed.

"SHUT THE HELL UP!" Yugi shouted in anger.

Akunadin chuckled evilly.

"Yugi doesn't have a brother." Professor Hawkins said.

"THAT WAS A VERY LONG TIME AGO! DON'T YOU DARE BRING IT UP AGAIN OR I'LL SEND YOU STRAGHT TO ANUBIS!" Yugi shouted in anger pointing a finger at Akunadin looking very pissed.

Joey looked at Professor Hawkins.

"Anubis?" Joey asked in confusion.

"Anubis is the Egyptian god of death." Rebecca said .

"You're just like your father and brother." Akunadin said coldly.

"YOU'RE WRONG!" Yugi shouted in anger.

"You're just like, Akunumkanon, and Yami." Akunadin said coldly.

Yugi balled up his fists, and glared at Akunadin angrily.

"No I'm not." Yugi hissed out.

"I wonder why he brought up the Pharaoh." Professor Hawkins said.

"Unlike my father and brother, I won't hesitate to kill you." Yugi said coldly.

"What're ya talkin' 'bout Yug?" Joey asked in confusion.

"Wait a minute." Professor Hawkins said.

Joey, Téa, Tristin, Rebecca, and Duke all looked at Professor Hawkins.

"What is it, Professor?" Duke asked.

"I read some of the Pharaoh's journals and in them he speaks of his twin brother Atemi." Professor Hawkins said.

Yami appeared in spirit form blinking in confusion.

"That was Yugi's name 5,000 years ago." Akunadin said.

Yugi fired shadow magic at Akunadin and Akunadin screamed in pain. Yugi smirked. Then Akunadin blew up.

"YUGI!" Rebecca shouted.

Yugi shook his head and turned to face the gang blinkinhg in confusion.

'Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Yami, what did I just do?' Yugi thought to Yami.

'You killed that man.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I did?' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Yes, Yugi, listen I don't know what's happening to you. But, we'll get through this together.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I hope so.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'I know we will.' Yami thought to Yugi.

"Stay 'ere Rebecca." Joey said and ran over to Yugi.

"Yug, what's goin' on!" He demanded with concern.

Yugi frowned looking at Joey. Then Yugi looked away. Joey grabbed Yugi by the shoulders.

"Yug, answer me, man!" Joey exclaimed with worry in his voice and on his face.

Yugi looked at Joey and frowned.

"I don't know, Joey. And it's scarring me." Yugi said.

"You should go back to Domino." Professor Hawkins said.

Yugi nodded.

"I know." Yugi said.

"Téa, Tristin come over 'ere." Joey said taking his hand off Yugi's shoulders.

Téa and Tristin walked over to Joey and Yugi. Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and

Yami returned to it.

"Let's go home." Yugi said.

Yugi closed his eyes and crossed his fingers. Then a blinding flash emitted from the Millennium Puzzle and Yugi, Joey, Téa, and Tristin disappeared and reappeared in Yugi's bedroom in the Kame Game Shop.

"It's great ta be back in Domino." Joey said.

Téa giggled.

"I have to agree." Téa said.

Yugi, Joey, Tristin and Téa started laughing. Gramps heard this and walked upstairs and into Yugi's room smiled when he saw Yugi and the rest of the gang were back.

"When did you get back, Yugi?" Gramps asked.

"A few minutes ago." Yugi said smiling at Gramps.

"Yug, dere's one ding I don't get." Joey said.

Yugi looked at Joey.

"What is it, Joey?" Yugi asked.

"How da hell did ya manage ta escape from dose creeps? I mean dey had your soul Yug!" Joey exclaimed.

"I know they did. And I don't know how I escaped. One of last thing's I remember was pushing Yami out of The Seal Of Oricouis. Then the next thing I knew I was on the roof of the train." Yugi said.

"What's The Seal Of Oricouis?" Gramps asked in confusion.

"It's a magic card who's power is more ancient then the Millennium Puzzle. Yami's opponent played a card and because of it The Seal Of Oricouis ended up in Yami's hand. Eventually he played it." Yugi said.

"What does it do?" Gramps asked.

"Once it's played it means the loser, loses their soul." Tristin said.

"Yami lost the duel. But, I couldn't lose him again. So, I used all the power of the Millennium Puzzle to get through the barrier and I pushed Yami out of the seal and let it take me instead." Yugi said sadly.

"What?" Gramps asked with concern.

"Yeah. But, somehow Yug escaped." Joey said.

"I did, I just don't know how." Yugi said.

'Maybe that figure had something to do with it.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'What figure?' Yugi thought to Yami.

'A figure appeared on the roof of the train, then he disappeared, then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and I returned to it, and you had returned.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Is there anything you can tell me about this figure?' Yugi thought to Yami.

'He was dressed as a Pharaoh and he read my mind.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Like me?' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Now that you mentioned it, it was.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I think I know what happened.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'What?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I think my soul was too strong for them to hold for very long. And when I broke free from whatever they were keeping my soul in Atemi must have taken form, and I think he was the figure on the train.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'I think you're right.' Yami thought to Yugi.

"It doesn't matter, how I escaped. All that matters is I did." Yugi said.

Joey smiled at Yugi, and Yugi smiled back at Joey.

"Yeah, you're right, Yug." Joey said.

Yugi walked over to his bed and sat down. Unbeknownst to the gang, Yugi entered a trance and had a vision.

YUGI'S VISION

The presents Yugi was standing there in spirit form and it was a throne room, and Pharaoh Atemi and Pharaoh Atemu were sitting on two thrones set up there. Then a ghostly figure appeared behind Yugi.

Atemi. The figure said.

Yugi spun around to face the figure. Then Yugi fell to his knees and kneeled down before the figure.

Father, please forgive me. Yugi pled looking at the ground.

Atemi, look at me! Akunumkanon commanded.

Yugi slowly looked up at him sadly. Akunumkanon smiled and kneeled in front of Yugi, and looked him in the eyes.

You can not blame yourself for my death. Akunumkanon said.

But, I am the one who fired the attack that killed you. If it weren't for me, your life would have...

Been meaningless, you and your brother were everything to me. When your mother died giving birth to you guys, you two were the ones who rescued me from the depths of despair. The servant brought you two in and she put you both in my arms, I looked in your's and Atemu's eyes and I knew what my purpose was, because of you and Atemu I had a reason to live. Your mother would have died anyway from giving birth to you and Atemu, and if you had died as well, I would not have been able to handle it. Akunumkanon said cutting off Yugi.

Father, that is not everything. Yugi said.

I know. You will figure it out as long as you have your brother. Akunumkanon said.

Yugi's vision ended. Yugi blinked looking around in confusion.

"What's wrong, Yug?" Joey asked with concern.

Yugi shook his head.

"It's nothing, Joey." Yugi lied.

'Yugi, what happened?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Nothing important.' Yugi thought to Yami.

Yugi stood up and ran out as fast as he could. Joey and the rest of the gang chased after Yugi. Yugi ran not knowing where he was going, and frankly he didn't care, Yugi lost Joey and the gang not realizing they were following him. He ended up in the basement of the museum.

"Damn it, where'd Yug go?" Joey asked.

"I have no idea." Tristin said.

"Wait the museum!" Téa exclaimed.

Then Téa turned and ran towards the museum. Joey and Tristin shrugged and followed her. Akunumkanon appeared in ghost form.

You must go there. Akunumkanon said.

I can not. I do not deseaver to be back in the palace. Not after what I did. Yugi said sadly.

Then Téa ran into the museum.

"YUGI!" Téa shouted with worry in her voice.

Akunumkanon faded and disappeared. Then Téa ran into the basement of the museum followed by Joey and Tristin.

"Yug, you OK?" Joey asked with concern.

"I can't do what father want and he knows why." Yugi said sadly.

Yami appeared in spirit form.

'What are you talking about!' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Father wants me to go back to the Garden Palace, and I can't do that.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Yugi, what's the matter with you!' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I killed father it's my fault he died.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Yugi, you haveta stop blaming yourself.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Father says his life would've been meaningless without us. You and I were everything to him and I betrayed and killed him.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'No, you're wrong, Yugi. I heard what Akunadin said you were under his spell you couldn't have helped it. It's not your fault, it was Akunadin's.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Yami, that's basically what father said.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'He's right.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I wish I could believe that.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Yugi, please stop this.' Yami thought to Yugi.

Yugi rolled his eyes.

"Just leave me alone, everyone!" Yugi exclaimed sounding slightly annoyed.

Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yami returned to it. Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yugi disappeared. Yugi reappeared in the inner chamber of the Egyptian underground. Yami appeared in spirit form.

'Yugi, where are we?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Egypt.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Why? How? Where?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I needed to think, I used the Millennium Puzzle and the inner chamber of the Egyptian underground.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Really?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Yes, Yami.' Yugi thought to Yami.

Yugi's dueling deck started glowing brightly.

'What's going on?' Yami thought to Yugi.

Then the glow from Yugi's dueling deck became a blinding glow and Yami had to cover his eyes, as did Yugi. Then the glow faded and disappeared reveiling Mahando the Dark Magician and Manari the Buster Blader.

'It's Dark Magician and Buster Blader. How did they get here?' Yami thought to Yugi.

Mahando and Manari saw Yugi and quickly kneeled down to him.

Yugi, it has been far too long. Manari said looking up at Yugi.

Yes, it has Manari. Please stand my old friend. Yugi said smiling at Manari.

Manari did as commanded.

Mahando, please stand. Yugi said.

Mahando was stareing at the ground.

But, sire. I let you and your brother down. I could not safe him, It...

MAHANDO, THAT IS ENOUGH! Yugi shouted cutting off Mahando.

Mahando looked up at Yugi looking shocked.

Yami could never and would never blame you. You, Manari and I tryed to covince Yami not to go through with the ceremony. We all knew he would die if he underwent the ceremony to seal the shadow realm. But, Yami would not yeld and then he died. But, what you may not realize, is that it has been 5,000 years since then. Now Yami and I share my body. Yugi said and smiled at Yami.

Really? Mahando asked standing up.

Yugi nodded.

Yes, and believe me I am glad. Yugi said.

'Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'What is it, Yami?' Yugi thought to Yami.

'What are you talking about?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Mahando the Dark Magician was your most trusted bodyguard and a very close friend of your's.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Really?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Yes.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'What of Buster Blader?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Manari the Buster Blader was my most trusted bodyguard and a very close friend of mine. Of course we were both close friends with Mahando and Manari.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'We were? I wish I remembered about them.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I know.' Yugi thought to Yami.

Unforgently, when Yami underwent the ceremony, it wiped all of his memories. He knows his name and that he was a Pharaoh. But, that's all. Yugi said sadly.

Mahando and Manari frowned sadly. Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yami took control over from Yugi. Yami looked at Mahando.

Yugi tells me we use to be close friends. I always wondered why Dark Magician of all cards was my favorite. Yami said.

Yami? Mahando asked in confusion.

Yami nodded.

Yes. Yami said.

'Yami, I think we should stay here for awhile.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Why?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I need to find something.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'What do you need to find Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'The shadow realm was sealed. But, it's magic remained and it magically presearved your body. I didn't have the knowledge until now to revieve it. But, now I do.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'What do you have in mind?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I plan to find your body revieve it and return you to it.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Will I remember everything we've been through in the last 3 years?' Yami thought to Yugi.

Yugi nodded.

'Yes, you will, Yami.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'OK, let's do this.' Yami thought to Yugi.

Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yami turned control back over to Yugi. Yugi walked over to a magical well that he could use to watch and listen to what his friends were doing and saying. Yugi waved a hand and an image appeared it was Joey and the rest of the gang. Yami appeared in spirit form next to Yugi.

"What was Yugi thinking?" Tristin asked.

"I don't know, Tristin." Téa said.

Joey was stareing at the stone tablet.

"Tristin, come 'ere." Joey said.

Tristin walked over.

"I know where Yug is." Joey said.

"Then where is my son!" A mystryous female voice demanded from the doorway.

Joey and the gang spun around to face the voice, the women had red hair and green eyes. Yugi stepped back from the viewing well in shock. Yugi shook the shock off and returned to the viewing well.

"Who da hell do ya dink ya are!" Joey demanded.

"My name is Destiny Motou." She said.

"You're Yugi's mom?" Joey asked in disbelieve.

"Yes. Now where is my son!" Destiny demanded.

"I think I know what you're think, Joey." Téa said.

"Where is Yugi!" Destiny demanded.

"I dink he's somewhere in Egypt." Joey said.

"What makes you think that?" Destiny asked in confusion.

"He has a very strong tie to Egypt." Téa said.

"What tie would that be?" Destiny asked.

"The Millennium Puzzle, and the spirit that's been within him since he put it together. You see Yugi and Pharaoh Atemu were twins in ancient Egypt, and Yugi has been through a great deal. I think Yugi may have gone to Egypt to seek out some answers." Téa said.

"I see." Destiny said sadly.

Then the Millennium Puzzle flashed and Yami returned to it. Yugi waved his hand and the image disappeared. Yugi walked towards the door, and walked out of the inner chammber of the Egyptian underground. Mahando and Manari followed Yugi as they started searching the underground for Yami's tomb. Soon they came to a secret passage and opened it and then they entered a secret tunnel and started through it. Then the Millennium Puzzle gave off a bright glow lighting up the whole passage way.

Are you certin about this, sire? Manari asked with deep concern.

Yugi nodded.

I am. Yugi said.

Good. Mahando said.

Then they arrived at the end of the tunnel and opened a door and walked out of a collum. Shadi appeared then gasped upon the emergents of a Dark Magician and Buster Blader from the secret tunnel, then the two Duel Monsters stepped aside and Yugi came out.

"Yugi?" Shadi asked in confusion.

Yugi nodded.

Hello, Shadi. Yugi said.

Then Yugi looked at the sarcophagus in the middle of the room, frowning sadly. Then Yugi looked at Shadi.

Shadi, is that what I think it is? Yugi asked.

Yes. That is the Pharaoh's mummy. Shadi said.

Yugi turned to face Mahando and Manari.

Do it you two. Yugi commanded.

Mahando and Manari bowed and walked passed Yugi and over to the sarcophagus and started pushing the lid off of the sarcophagus.

What are you doing, Yugi! Shadi demanded.

Because of Yami's shadow magic his body was magically presearved as it was. He will look like he is mearrily sleeping, and everything was left inside his body. Yugi said.

Sire? Mahando asked.

Yugi looked at Mahando and saw that the sarcophagus's lid was offf and Yugi walked over.

Mahando, Manari move his body carefully to the alter. Yugi said.

Then the Mahando picked up Yami's body and carefully put it down on the alter. Yugi walked over and then the three of them carefully started unwrapping Yami's body. Soon the linen was compleltly off and Shadi was standing back in shock about the fact that Yugi was right.

'Are you ready, Yami?' Yugi thought to Yami.

'As ready as I'll ever be.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Good.' Yugi thought to Yami.

Then Yugi closed his eyes. Then the Millennium Puzzle started to glow faintly then Yugi began to chant in ancient Egyptian and the glow became brighter and brighter untill it was a blinding glow. Soon the blinding glow faded to a faint glow and a soul sphere left the Millennium Puzzle and Yugi gribbed it carefully with his left hand. Yugi's eyes snapped open and they were pitch black with apsolutely no white. Yugi put his right hand over Yami's body and a bright beam hit Yami's body, and Yami's body took it's first breath in 5,000 years, and it's heart started beating. Then Yugi moved his left hand to over Yami's body and moved his other hand over so they were together. Then the soul sphere flew out of Yugi's hands and slammed into Yami's body. Yami's eyes slowly opened. Yami sat up. Then Yugi blinked as his eyes returned to normal.

"It worked." Yugi said.

"Yugi?" Yami asked in confusion.

'Yeah, Yami. It's me.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'We still have our mindlink?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Yeah, we've always had one.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Really?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Yes.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Cool. So, Yugi, now can we go back to Domino.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Sure, Yami.' Yugi thought to Yami.

"Here." Yugi said taking off the Millennium Puzzle and handing it to Yami.

"Yugi?" Yami asked with deep concern.

Yugi, how did you do that? Shadi asked.

I am the only person in the world, who knows how to access the full extent of the power of all of the Millennium Items. Shadi, have you ever heard of Horus Shadow Items? Yugi asked.

Shadi nodded.

Shadi, do you know their hidding place? Yugi asked.

Shadi nodded.

Can you lead me there? Yugi asked.

It is forbiden to anyone but the creater of all of the Millennium and Horus Shadow Items. Shadi said.

Shadi, I am Pharaoh Atemi, the father of the Shadow Realm and creater of the Millennium and Horus Shadow Items. Yugi said.

Shadi gasped and kneeled down to Yugi.

'You created the Shadow Realm!' Yami thought to Yugi.

'No, I just discovered it. But, I like the extra power that came with the believe that I created the Shadow Realm and could command it's power more then anyone else in the world. So, I just let everyone think I created it.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Oh.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I'm glad it worked, bring you back I mean.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'What would've happened if it didn't?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I would've died. But, bringing you back was worth the risk.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Oh, Yugi.' Yami thought to Yugi.

Now can you lead me there, Shadi? Yugi asked.

Yes, sire. Shadi said.

Good. Yugi said.

I shall lead you there now. Shadi said standing up.

Then let's go. Yugi said.

'Are you feeling alright, Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I'm fine, Yami.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Good.' Yami thought to Yugi.

Then the 5 of them walked out of the tomb and into another passageway. Yugi, Yami, Mahando, and Manari followed Shadi.

'What are these Horus Shadow Items?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I created them first. There are of 7 them. The Horus Shadow Pendant, Horus Shadow Mirrior, Horus Shadow Staff, Horus Shadow Bracelet, Horus Shadow Guantlet, Horus Shadow Crown, and the Horus Shadow Puzzle.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Did anyone possess them back then?' Yami thought to Yugi.

Yugi stopped in his tracks and frowned, then he turned and looked at Yami. Shadi stopped and looked at them.

'What's wrong, Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'The Horus Shadow Pendant, was mother's, the Horus Shadow Crown was my son's, the Horus Shadow Mirror was Seto's, the Horus Shadow Bracelet was father's, the Horus Shadow Guantlet was Tamer's, and the Horus Shadow Staff was Jono's. He was the only one outside of the family I trusted with one.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Seto? Do you mean, Kaiba?' Yami thought to Yugi.

Yugi nodded.

"Tamer was Mokuba's pastlife in Egypt." Yugi said.

"Who's Jono?" Yami asked.

"Joey is." Yugi said.

"Wow." Yami said.

"Let's continue." Yugi said.

Shadi bowwed.

"Yes, sire." Shadi said.

Then they continued down the corridor.

'Are you sure about this, Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Yes.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'OK, then.' Yami thought to Yugi.

They soon arrived at a door, which open by itself to reveil Yahiya the Black Luster Soldeir standing guard in the chamber.

"Yahiya, stand down I have returned for my item." Yugi said stepping into the chamber.

'Yugi, becareful.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I will be Yami, don't worry.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Good.' Yami thought to Yugi.

Who goes there! Yahiya demanded.

"Pharaoh Atemi!" Yugi exclaimed.

Yahiya's eyes widen in shock.

But, how? You died 5,000 years ago. Yahiya said.

I have been reborn. And Pharaoh Atemu has been resserected. Yugi said as Yami and Manari stepped into the chamber.

Really? Yahiya asked.

Yes, Yahiya. Mahando said stepping into the chamber as well.

"Sire, how do you know this warrior?" Shadi asked.

"I started to get sick right after Yami's death, I survived the illness I was suffering with for 2 years before I was finally bedridin. My condition only got worse after that. I asked Manari to bring me a trust-worthy Duel Monster, he brought Yahiya the Black Luster Soldier to me, and said he would trust him with his life. And so I charged Yahiya with the duty to protect the Horus Shadow Items with his life if need be." Yugi said.

I have come for my item, Yahiya. Yugi said.

Yahiya bowwed and stepped aside. Yugi walked over to the sarcophagus in the middle of the room which containded his own body and all of the Horus Shadow Items on the lid, except the Horus Shadow Puzzle which was inside, and Yugi didn't seem to notice that the Horus Shadow Bracelet was gone. Yugi took a deep breath and started shoving the lid off. Then Yami walked over and stopped next to Yugi.

'Let me help.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Yeah, thanks.' Yugi thought to Yami.

Then the two pushed the lid back enough for Yugi to get out the Horus Shadow Puzzle. Then they closed it again.

'Yami, it feels kind of weird to be in my own tomb.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'I know what you mean.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Good.' Yugi thought to Yami.

We will leave, now. Yugi said.

Farewell, Pharaohs. Yahiya said and bowwed.

Then Yugi and the rest left the tomb.

'Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'What is it, Yami?' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Can we go back to Domino?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Sure.' Yugi thought to Yami.

Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Yugi and Yami disappeared and reappeared at the mussum.

"Yugi!" Destiny exclaimed running over and hugging him.

"Mom." Yugi said hugging her back.

'Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'This is Destiny Motou, Yami.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'I see.' Yami thought to Yugi.

"Uhh, mom. This is Yami." Yugi said stepping aside reveiling Yami for the first time to his mother.

Destiny gasped in shock.

"What's wrong?" Joey asked.

"Yugi, he's the spitting image of your father." Destiny said.

"I know." Yugi said looking at the floor sadly.

"I miss him too, Yugi." Destiny said.

"What's goin' on Yugi?" Joey asked.

"My father died 8 years ago." Yugi said sadly.

"How?" Yami asked.

"They didn't know what to make of the Millennium Puzzle, so they allowed my father to send it to me, as a birthday present. A few days later there was an acciedent on a dig in Egypt, he pushed a co-worker out of the way of a falling bowlder and my father was crushed." Yugi said sadly.

'Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'It's OK, Yami.' Yugi thought to Yami.

Then Yugi's deck glowed brightly and then the glow faded and disappeared.

"What was dat, Yug?" Joey asked in confusion.

"Nothing, Joey." Yugi said.

'Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'Mahando and Manari returned to their cards.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Cool.' Yami thought to Yugi.

'I know. But, something strange happened after my father's acciedent.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'What happened, that's so strange Yugi?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'When they moved the boulder there was no sign of my father, anywhere.' Yugi thought to Yami.

'That is strange. You know what I wonder?' Yami thought to Yugi.

'What?' Yugi thought to Yami.

'Why father wants you to return to the Garden Palace like he does.' Yami thought to Yugi.

Then a ghostly figure appeared behind Yugi the gang gasped.

Atemi? Akunumkanon asked.

Yugi spun to face him.

Father, why do you want me to return to the Garden Palace! Yugi demanded.

Akunumkanon frowned, and sighed.

There's someone there suffering from compelet memory loss, after suffering a blow to the head 8 years ago. Akunumkanon said.

So, what does that have to do with me? Yugi asked in confusion.

"You and your family from this life. He possess a bracelet that has been in his family for 5,000 years, which happens to contain my soul I am able to appear to you because of the Millennium Puzzle and now it is because of the Horus Shadow Puzzle." Akunumkanon said.

"What's his name?" Yugi asked in confusion.

"His name is Virgil Motou." Akunumkanon said.

Yugi and Destiny gasped in shock.

"He's alive." Yugi gasped in shock.

Akunumkanon nodded.

"Yes, I teleported him out before it killed him. But, unfortunately not before he hit his head." Akunumkanon said.

Yugi's eyes widen in shock. Then Yugi turned to face Destiny.

"Mom, we have..."

"To help your father." Destiny said cutting off Yugi.

Yugi nodded.

"Yeah." Yugi said.

"Let's go." Destiny said.

Then Yugi took Destiny's hand. Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and the two disappeared and reappeared in the throne room of the Garden Palace.

MEANWHILE WITH THE GANG

Akunumkanon faded and disappeared.

MEANWHILE AT THE GARDEN PALACE

Then the door to the throne room open and an older looking version of Yami with glasses walked in. He blinked upon seeing he had vistors.

"Oh, hello." Virgil said.

"Virgil?" Destiny asked in disbelieve.

Then flashs of his past started going through Virgil's head.

"Dad?" Yugi asked in shock.

Then more flashs went through Virgil's head. Virgil shook his head, and blinked in confusion and looked around and his eyes came to rest on Destiny.

"Destiny?" Virgil asked in confusion.

Destiny smiled.

"Virgil!" Destiny exclaimed and ran to Virgil and hugged him.

"What happened?" Virgil asked with concern.

Then Destiny stepped back and frowned.

"We thought you died 8 years ago." Destiny said sadly.

"What?" Virgil asked in shock.

"Dad?" Yugi asked.

Virgil looked at Yugi.

"Yugi?" Virgil asked.

Then Virgil ran to Yugi and hugged Yugi. And Yugi hugged Virgil back and cryed into his father's chest.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Yugi." Virgil said.

"I missed you." Yugi whispered.

"I'll make it up to you I promise." Virgil said.

Yugi stopped crying and stepped back from his father smiling. Then Virgil noticed the Duel Disk.

"What that you got on, Yugi?" Virgil asked.

"This?" Yugi asked pointing at his Duel Disk.

"Yeah." Virgil said nodding.

"It's called a Duel Disk. Watch." Yugi said.

Then Yugi activated the holoprojecters, and put the Duel Disk in duel mode, and drew from his deck.

"I summon Kurribo." Yugi said as a Kurribo appeared in front of him.

Virgil smiled.

"Cool." Virgil said.

Yugi deactivated the holoprojecters and put the Duel Disk back into standby mode.

"I know." Yugi said.

"Our son has won 3 Duel Monsters torunments in the three year." Destiny said.

"Really?" Virgil asked surprise.

"Yeah." Destiny said.

"What's your faovite card?" Virgil asked.

Yugi pulled out Buster Blader and handed it to his father.

"That is." Yugi said.

Yugi took off the Duel Disk and handed it to Virgil and Yugi took the Buster Blader card from Virgil.

"Watch this." Yugi said.

Yugi held the card up in front of him.

"I SUMMON MANARI!" Yugi shouted.

A bright light emitted from the card and Manari appeared in front of Yugi with his back faceing him.

"Hey, Manari." Yugi said.

Then Manari spun around to face Yugi.

"Yugi?" Manari asked in confusion.

Yugi nodded.

"Yes." Yugi said.

"What is going on, Pharaoh?" Manari asked.

"I was showing my parents from this life what kind of powers I have." Yugi said.

"I see." Manari said.

"Mom, Dad, this is one of my closet friedns Manari the Buster Blader." Yugi said as Manari bowed in respect towards Virgil and Destiny.

"Amazing." Virgil said.

"I know." Yugi said smiling at his father.

"How'd you do that?" Virgil asked.

Then suddenly there was a bright flash from Virgil's wrist and Akunumkanon appeared to them.

"Akunumkanon, do you know what's going on?" Virgil asked.

"Yugi is the reincarnation of my son Atemi." Akunumkanon said.

"That explains it." Virgil said.

"Yes, it does." Akunumkanon said.

Yugi's eyes turned crimson, then he smirked eviliy. Then the Horus Shadow Bracelet flashed and Akunumkanon took control over from Virgil.

"Yugi, what's going on?" Akunumkanon asked with worry in his voice and on his face.

"I'm not the weakling I was." Atemi said.

Akunumkanon glared at him angerly. Manari gasped and rushed over to Destiny prepared to protect her if need be.

"ATEMI!" Akunumkanon shouted in anger.

"That's right, father." Atemi said.

"DAMMIT...But, that means..."

Akunumkanon's voice cut off. Then the Horus Shadow Bracelet flashed and Akunumkanon disappeared and reappeared next to Joey. Yami's back was faceing the group. Akunumkanon glared at Yami.

"FACE ME NOW, ATEMU!" Akunumkanon shouted in anger.

Joey looked at the man.

"Who are you?" Joey asked.

Yami spun to face Akunumkanon angrily.

"So, I was right. You've given in again." Akunumkanon said sadly.

"SHUT UP, FATHER!" Atemu shouted angerily.

'Let us get back to our old plan.' Atemi thought to Atemu.

'Right.' Atemu thought to Atemi.

'I'll meet you on the roof of KaibaCorb.' Atemi thought to Atemu.

'OK.' Atemu thought to Atemi.

Then there was a bright flash both with Atemu and Atemi and both Atemu and Atemi disappeared and reappeared on the roof of KaibaCorb. Both Atemi and Atemu drew a card from Atemi's deck. They both smirked.

'What did you get?' Atemu thought to Atemi.

'Obelisk The Tortmentor, you?' Atemi thought to Atemu.

'The Winged Dragon Of Ra.' Atemu thought to Atemi.

'So the first two we summon will be Ra and Obelisk.' Atemi thought to Atemu.

Kaiba walked out on the roof and blinked in confusion seeing what looked like two Yugi Motous. Atemi raised his card up in front of him.

"I SUMMON OBELISK THE TORTMENTOR!" Atemi shouted, as there was a bright flash from Atemi's card and then the real Obelisk The Tortmentor appeared in front of Atemi.

Then Atemu raised his card up in front of him.

"I SUMMON THE WINGED DRAGON OF RA!" Atemu shouted, as there was a bright flash from Evil Yami's card and then the real Winged Dragon Of Ra appeared in

front of Atemu.

"Destroy this town." Atemi ordered Obelisk.

Obelisk nodded and started destroying Domino the monsters knew not to destroy KaibaCorb while Atemi and Atemu were there.

"You too, Ra." Atemu ordered the Winged Dragon Of Ra.

Then Ra too began destroying Domino.

'Do you think, father, will intervere?' Atemu thought to Atemi.

'Of course, he and Virgil Motou may discuse it first, but they will try to stop us.' Atemi thought to Atemu.

'I agree.' Atemu thought to Atemi.

Then Atemi and Atemu drew again from Atemi's deck.

'What did you get this time?' Atemi thought to Atemu.

'Slither The Sky Dragon, you?' Atemu thought to Atemi.

'Curse Of Dragon.' Atemi thought to Atemu.

Then Atemi raised the card up in front of him.

"I SUMMON CURSE OF DRAGON!" Atemi shouted as there was a bright flash from Atemi's card and then a Curse Of Dragon appeared.

Atemu raised his card up in front of him.

"I SUMMON SLITHER THE SKY DRAGON!" Atemu shouted as there was a bright flash from Evil Yami's card and then Slither appeared in front of him.

"Destroy this town, Slither." Atemu ordered.

"You too, Curse Of Dragon." Atemi ordered.

Then the two dragons started destroying Domino. Kaiba's eyes widen and he ran back to his office. Kaiba called Téa's cell phone. Téa answered it.

"Hello." Téa said.

"Gardner, we have a problem." Kaiba said.

"What is it, Kaiba?" Téa asked.

"Look outside." Kaiba said.

Then Téa walked to a place where she could see out. Téa gasped.

"I know, the worst part is who ordered them to two that." Kaiba said.

"Who!" Téa demanded.

"Yugi did." Kaiba said.

"Oh, no." Téa said.

"Yeah, I know." Kaiba said.

Virgil appeared in spirit form frowning.

'Akunumkanon, do you sense that?' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

'Yes, I do.' Akunumkanon thought to Virgil.

'This is very bad.' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

'I agree.' Akunumkanon thought to Virgil.

'Akunumkanon what happened to Yugi, why was he acting like that?' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

'Virgil, that was Yugi's darkside you saw.' Akunumkanon thought to Virgil.

'But, why did he take over now?' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

'Because he and Yami are strongly contected. Yami gave into his darkside again which caused Yugi's darkside to take over as well.' Akunumkanon thought to Virgil.

'Oh, no.' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

'I know. But, between Yugi and Yami this time round Yugi is the stronger of the two so I think he will probably snap out of it first.' Akunumkanon thought to Virgil.

'Good. But, what about Yami?' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

'When Yugi snaps out of it he'll...'

Akunumkanon's eyes widen when he relized what Yugi was going to do when he snaped out of it and what it would cause.

'Akunumkanon, what's wrong!' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

MEANWHILE WITH ATEMI AND EVIL YAMI

Atemi blinked the crimson color in his eyes disappeared and they returned to their normal amethyst color. Yugi looked at Atemu. Yugi raised his hand and a wave of shadow magic hit Atemu. Just then Akunumkanon appeared in a flash.

'What is Yugi doing!' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

'He's snapping Yami out of it.' Akunumkanon thought to Virgil.

'Good.' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

'DAMN IT, THERE HAD TO BE ANOTHER WAY!' Akunumkanon thought to Virgil.

'What's going on!' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.

'This is going to cause a serious problem to Yugi.' Akunumkanon thought to Virgil.

'What do you mean!' Virgil thought to Akunumkanon.
