Chapter 12 – The Fate Of Blue Eyes

Atemu eyed Seth evilly. "You are going to lose, Seth. You should have run away when you could do it. Now I won't show any pity for you. You can go to hell." Seth looked at Atemu with pure hatred in his eyes "If I were you, I would rather play than mock the rival. My powers have grown since my last duel against you, so I call my Ryou-Ki-Shin to the field, and I play it in defense mode!" said Seth quietly (I need to reinforce my defense. If I don't, his Celtic Warrior is going to crash me right to hell. Now I need to choose a monster, and I need a good one…Or else…)

Atemu looked at the field (There's no way he can win this duel. He doesn't have the right monsters to overtake mine, and he is playing his best creatures against me right now, so when I place my best monsters he will be helpless…Just wait Seth…) "Now my turn?" said Atemu, his tone bored and calm "I see you did nothing, your pathetic monster is nothing to me! You'll pay for trying to take Kisara! She'll never be yours, I promise you this!"

Seth closed his eyes and said "You wish! Ra will judge us eventually. But I know you aren't afraid. You think you are a god yourself, always hovering above us all," Seth opened his eyes "But I know the truth. I know who you are…I saw it with my own eyes. While you and I are living in our palaces, eating the best food of this land and sleeping under our roofs, innocent people are suffering…They are being Killed, Atemu…Their villages burn in the flames of your useless wars, their children are murdered in front of their tormented eyes…You never saw hopelessness and helplessness before…" Seth turned slightly, glancing at the Pharaoh "What can you understand? Kisara never loved you, no, she is mine. I met her in the darkest day of my life, and she was my only light through the shadows of the gloom I lived. My eyes saw so much sorrow, yet her smile purified my soul. I was with her through the troubles and the worries of our lives…" Seth expression softened when he talked about Kisara. Atemu listened to the speech, his eyes locked on Seth.

"She was in your palace for the last month, and you saw her withering in front of you. You couldn't understand her, you didn't care about her feelings. She isn't a person to you, Atemu, she is just another slave, just another item. But Kisara is alive, she has her feelings, and as long as I can fight for her freedom and her safety, this is what I'm going to do! I'm going to fight for her, because I love her! And I will never give up!" said Seth, determination gleaming in his eyes.

Atemu looked at him, and blinks of disbelief and evilness appeared in his eyes.

"Mistress Kisara!" screamed Ikana as she saw the white haired girl falling dead on the bed. Mana approached her "What's going on?" she asked in horror.

"I'm not sure," said Ikana "But something isn't right…She…She isn't breathing…" Mana panicked, taking Kisara's hand into her one "She is so cold…Kisara, please…Hold on…" Mana rubbed her arm, trying to warm her. She closed her eyes, whispering a prayer for Kisara to get better, to stay alive.

The silence was complete, and suddenly Ikana spoke "Can you hear this, mistress Mana?"

Mana turned to her, still holding Kisara's arm "What?" she asked in slight confusion, praying Kisara wouldn't die. "I heard…I think it is high priest Seth…His voice is reaching our room…"

Mana listened carefully, mumbling the prayer…It was right, Seth's voice made its way through the darkened corridors of the temple to the room Kisara was lying in, and echoed, his words clear and firm.

"…But Kisara is alive, she has her feelings, and as long as I can fight for her freedom and her safety, this is what I'm going to do! I'm going to fight for her, because I love her! And I will never give up!"…

Something happened to Kisara after Seth's statement. Mana felt her pulse regaining its steady pace, becoming stronger and she fought to breathe again, moving slightly.

"I…I can't believe…" tears shone in Mana's eyes as she lifted Kisara's body slightly "She is breathing again…Priest Seth's voice brought her back…" Ikana was already crying, but now she rushed to bring some of her tea to Mana "We need to give her this," she said through her tears. Mana took the cup and sat Kisara up with some help from Ikana, and then she helped poor Kisara to drink.

"High priest Seth loves mistress Kisara, right?" asked Ikana suddenly. Mana looked up at her "Yes," she said firmly "He loves her. Now I believe he truly loves her."

Kisara whimpered lightly as the cold tea relieved the burn inside her. Still her mind was focused on one thing (Seth…I can't let you lose your soul…I love you…)

"Your speech was so exciting, Seth," mocked Atemu "You are the one that don't understand. When I was crowned Pharaoh, my country was broken, and the evil ruled everywhere…The darkness threw its arms of demolition around my land. I needed to fight, and I did it though I was only a child. I defeated the armies of enemies, I brought a time of peace and calm. Now the villages are growing, the fields are fertile; Egypt became the most powerful empire on earth. It was never easy for me. I knew times of fear and hopelessness myself. But I was the one who dared confront the gods, I was the one who changed the fate of Egypt forever. I don't deny what people suffered and are still suffering, but it's not like I always lived the perfect life as you are presenting. Yet I am the Pharaoh, and I've proved nothing can stand in my way. Not even you, Seth. I saw Kisara and I fell in love with her. She is the most beautiful girl on earth, and she is mine. She is mine because so decided the gods you are bowing before and praying to. They want her to be the queen of Egypt, to be mine. You can't change that Seth, and I won't allow you take her away from me. I'm not losing this game, because I'm playing now so the gods can judge me, after all I did for them and for my country." said Atemu "Now my Celtic Warrior! Attack this useless beast of his and send it into the shadows!"

"Not so fast! I play my trap stone! Your warrior loses half of his attack points, so now I can switch my monster to attack mode and attack myself!" called Seth.

"I play trap stone of my own! The Mirror Power will return your attack to your monster! Now it lost its points in return! It is much weaker than my Celtic Warrior, so I attack you again!" Atemu said as he activated his stone. Seth could do nothing more, and his monster was destroyed.

"You lose, Seth! Nothing can save you from this one! I play the Guarding Of The Storm! My monster will take your life points the minute your turn is over, so make you pathetic move! You are going to lose now or later!"

(I must think of something right now, or I'm going to lose the battle…) thought Seth as he looked at his stones, trying to decide what he was going to play next.

Kisara blinked several times, looking around her. Atemu's voice reached the room, "Celtic Warrior, attack Seth's useless monster now!"

His voice caused Kisara to move, and push roughly Ikana's hands "What? Seth!" she shouted, although her voice was weak and broken. Mana leant over her, trying to calm her down "Kisara, lie down right now. You mustn't do anything in your condition. Please lie down and drink this tea…"

"I-I…Seth is in trouble…" whispered Kisara, again struggling to get up. "Mistress Kisara, you can't help him now…Just stay here, please…" begged Ikana as she poured some more liquid into the cup "Mistress Mana, I prepared more…"

Mana took the cup and placed it in Kisara's hand "Drink this Kisara, you will feel better…" Kisara silently obeyed, drinking the tea and listening to the voices of Atemu and Seth from the battle somewhere nearby.

Kisara jerked up when she heard this "No…" she said, her expression pure horror "No…I must help Seth…" Mana looked at her "Kisara, you have to stay calm…" she paced towards the door, and called the guard who stood there "Can't you close the doors to this wing of the temple? Those horrible sounds and shouts are disturbing mistress Kisara…Now go and close the door, immediately!" ordered Mana.

"NO!" yelled Kisara from her place. She got up on her legs, letting the cup fall down on the floor "No, I have to do something!…"

Mana turned to face the angered Kisara, shaking on her weak legs "Kisara, now lie down and try to sleep. You are losing control over yourself every minute. You have to think about your health. Now do as I say, lie down…"

Kisara shook her head stubbornly and stepped forwards "I'm going to see Seth now." she said quietly, her voice low and dangerous. Mana looked at kisara, and was surprised to see strange things happen to her. Her hair was fluttering around her, although there was no wind in the halls of the temple, and her eyes were shining with blue aura, making her look different and frightening.

Ikana's tears run freely on her cheeks "Mistress Kisara…What is going on with you?" she whispered while Kisara was making her way towards the door, her legs hardly carrying her on. Mana moved from her way, scared and confused, and let her get out. The guard who stood near the doors cried out in surprise when he saw her in her current state. He threw his weapon and ran down the hall, screaming in fear. Kisara closed her eyes, the blue light shining through her eyelids, and listened.

"I play this stone face down, and I call my Sky Dragon to the field!" said Seth as the stones were placed as he ordered. The Sky Dragon was strong, and Seth knew this was his chance "Sky Dragon! Attack his Celtic Warrior now!" said Seth.

Kisara heard him calling, so she started walking towards the voices, with Mana and Ikana following her closely.

"What happened to mistress Kisara?" whispered Ikana, too frightened to talk loudly. "I'm not so sure, Ikana…" said Mana, still trying to understand "But I think her Kaa is showing…I never knew she held so much lethal Kaa in her fragile body…I hope she calms down soon, or…The Kaa is going to destroy her from within…" Ikana place her hand over her mouth, shocked.

"There's nothing you can do now, Seth. I call the Karibuh brothers to the field, and now I use my Fusion stone to fuse them all together and I'm attacking your Sky Dragon!" the Sky dragon lost some points, but was still in the game.

"Now what?" asked Seth. "My turn isn't over yet." said Atemu "Now that your dragon is weaker than my Guardian, I attack you again…" Seth's monster was destroyed, and his lifepoints were almost over.

Atemu laughed "Soon Seth, you are going to be expelled forever to the Shadow Realm! This is your last turn…"

Finally Kisara saw them, standing in the middle of the shadows and playing this game over her. She walked as fast as she could, falling on the second step. Her eyes were lit blue again, and she grabbed the floor, crawling toward Seth.

"She is going to kill herself," whimpered Ikana, and Mana ran and knelt by Kisara, placing a hand over her back "Kisara, that's enough, please let me help you." Kisara took Mana's hand, and let her pull her up, her eyes still glowing. "I can go by myself," she whispered, and walked once again, stumbling.

"Kisara, please wait. What are you about to do?" Mana supported her slightly, stopping her "You want to see the duel? Then watch it from here, don't get any closer to them!" said Mana and held Kisara in her place.

Kisara could see Seth. (It's…It's just like in that dream I had…Now Seth is going to call his Sand Dragon, but it won't save him…I have to save him…What can I do?) Her heart beat so fast inside her chest, her blue eyes shining with their new, blue halo.

"I use my trap card Change of Heart! Now I can sacrifice your monsters!" called Seth "I call my Sand Dragon to the field!" he exclaimed, as the mythical dragon appeared in front of him.

Kisara felt her heart sinking (Oh no…He played this move again! He is going to lose the duel! I have to stop it!) "Leave me alone!" she said to Mana "I have to do something…He is going to lose, I have to help him." Mana was scared when she felt the heat blazing inside Kisara and spreading all over her body.

(If I don't let her go, she will explode right here in my arms. I have to let her…) thought Mana as she removed her arms and allowed Kisara to move towards Seth.

Atemu laughed, his voice cold and evil. "That's it? That's your last move? This helpless miserable dragon can't help you now! I play my Dark Magician in attack mode…" Atemu looked at the stone placed beneath him "That's it Seth. You lose! In a minute you will be nothing more than a memory."

"No…" whispered Kisara as she was progressing towards the rivals "Please no…"

The desperation grew inside Seth's eyes. (I have nothing to do, just to wait my inevitable end…Kisara…I'm sorry…)

"Dark Magician, attack!" called Atemu, Seth could do nothing now. (Kisara…) he closed his eyes, breathing for the last time of his life (I love you…)

Atemu laughed once again.

"No! SETH!" screamed Kisara, and she started to run. Atemu looked to his back, he saw the girl running toward the field, in the direction of Seth. Something fell from her neck when she bypassed Atemu; it was the millennium necklace.

"Kisara!" Atemu yelled "Don't get close to him!" but she wouldn't listen. Seth opened his eyes in horror "Kisara!" he shouted, when he saw her "Kisara! Stay there!"

However she never stopped. The ray of Atemu's attack destroyed the Sand Dragon, pieces of sand and magic falling on her desperate way to Seth. But the ray didn't stop there – it headed toward him, in order to destroy him!

Kisara ran as fast as she could, her eyes shining even stronger, her tired feet couldn't carry her so she jumped into the air, and although no one could see it, two great white wings were opened behind her back, catching the waves of air and helping her cross the field. She landed in front of Seth, her arms stretched to her sides, her face determined. Atemu couldn't stop the attack anymore.

The field was filled with bright white light, as two voices screamed her name.

Seth rushed toward her, leaning down and taking her body into his arms. She opened her eyes, tiredly looking at him.

"Seth…" she whispered, making a huge effort to place her hand on his cheek "You…You are fine…You are here…"

"Kisara…Kisara…" he brought her to him, her body limp in his arms as she fought to keep her eyes open "Why? Why did you do this?"

"I love you, Seth…I missed you so much when you were gone…" she said, looking at him with calm smile on her lips.

He kissed her forehead lightly, letting her lean into his chest "I'm sorry I left you…I never meant it…I never wanted to leave you…I never abandoned you, my Kisara…" she smiled again, her eyes slowly closing "I know…" she whispered.

"Please…No, Kisara…Don't close your eyes, please stay with me…I love you, I love you so much…" Kisara reopened her eyes "I love you too Seth, but don't…" she paused to breathe "Forget you are still playing…"

Seth held her close to him, looking at Atemu, who picked up the millennium necklace that fell near him. He wanted to run and check how Kisara was, but couldn't because of the duel. If he left his place, the game would be over and both Seth and he were going to be expelled to the Shadow Realm.

Kisara looked up at Seth "Do you remember," she whispered "You always helped me when I was in trouble? You always knew how to cheer me up…I want to help you too…I want to give you everything I have…" her eyes glowed blue again, and her body started to tense in his arms, small waves of energy flowing into the air around her.

"Wh-What are you doing?" he yelled at her, yet she just smiled "I want to help you Seth…Promise me you'll win…" she let out the sentence in a cry, when her body was overfilled with pure power…and suddenly Seth remembered – what the old man that told him about the Kaa…

/"Everyone has Kaa, and the only way to get the Kaa is either to kill the person you wish his power or convince him to give it to you. But only a person who is truly willing to give you his inner Kaa can really help you to increase your power."/

(Kisara wants to give me the power within her…But…But! It will kill her!)

"No Kisara, you can't! Please! Don't do this! I love you, I don't want to lose you again! Kisara, listen to me! You mustn't do this!" yelled Seth, holding her tight to him. Her body was so fragile, energy was drifting from her faster and faster…

Atemu looked at the empty stone tablet in front of Seth…A figure appeared on the tablet…It was… (It can't be…The Blue Eyes White Dragon!) thought Atemu (But how? And why Kisara's body is glowing in white?…Hold on! She is losing her Kaa! She is willingly giving her Kaa to Seth!)

"Kisara!" Atemu's voice echoed through the shadows of the game "Kisara, don't do this! You…You are going to die…"

Seth looked at the Blue Eyes White Dragon on the tablet, then at Kisara. She was hardly alive by now, and he could do nothing to save her. The mighty dragon started to get his physical form, appearing on the field, white light surrounding him.

"You'll win Seth…You will be safe…" she whispered, her voice barely audible. "Kisara, Kisara, Kisara!" called Seth, looking at her eyes slowly closing, she almost wasn't breathing anymore, yet she managed to let out "Please live on Seth…I-I love you…" then she closed her eyes, falling limp and silent inside Seth's arms.

"No!" screamed Seth in fear and frustration "No!"

"Kisara!" called Atemu from his place. Mana and Ikana were frozen, tears streaming on their faces, Ikana crying out loud and Mana just too shocked to move or speak.

The White Dragon on the field regained its power, and Seth looked up at him, seeing Kisara in the dragon's graceful form.

"White Lightening!" her voice echoed through his head "Win this duel!"

"Kisara…" whispered Seth "White lightening!" he ordered the beast in front of him quietly.

The blow erased Atemu's Dark magician, but still he got some lifepoints to keep him on the field. He didn't move when the White Dragon attacked…He didn't move at all…He just stared at the millennium necklace (Kisara…you sacrificed yourself for Seth…You…You always loved him, not me…I'm sorry for what I've done to you…I broke your heart…)

"No!" screamed Ikana.

"What are you doing?" asked Mana, shocked even more.

Ikana rushed forwards, jumping into the field, waving her hands "Stop this game right now! It isn't going to help us anymore! You mustn't continue!" she stood in the middle of the field, holding her hands up in the air "I won't let more death come over us now! Stop this game, or kill me first! Open your eyes and see how much destruction you've already caused! You have to realize this game you are playing now is for nothing!"

(She is right…) thought Seth, his hands caressing Kisara's cold cheek (Nothing can help her now…Nothing can bring her back…)

Atemu finally took his pyramid. (She's right…Everything is over now…) he held the millennium item, and called the shadows back to the nothingness they came from. Then he crossed the field, bypassing Ikana. She bowed her head so he wouldn't see her tearful eyes.

Seth let his own tears fall on Kisara's dead face. He didn't even noticed Atemu approaching him until the Pharaoh put a hand on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry…" he said, a tear rolling from his purple eyes too "She loved you, and I broke her heart when I forced her stay with me…I am…So sorry…"

Seth got up, with Kisara still in his arms. He looked at Atemu, but said nothing. Slowly he paced, holding Kisara to him, getting up the stairs into the most sacred place in the temple.

He was alone there. He placed Kisara before the golden Ra, and kissed her on her cold lips for the last time.

"Kisara…" he said her name "You…You gave me your Kaa…You saved me…You did this all just for me…" he looked up at the sky, breathing the cold air of the evening (Mighty Ra, I ask you to take this girl to your sun temple in the eternity…Please, take care of her…Until the day our souls reunite again…)

Kisara's body started to glow…light golden arms took her into an embrace, as Seth saw the god Ra taking the girl away with him. Seth lost his breath, as he fell into the floor before Ra.

()I will do this…() he heard the voice from heaven ()She'll be forever yours…() and afterwards, Seth saw him taking up Kisara, and flying far into the sky…Into the starz…

Something appeared up in the sky…Was it? It was Kisara! Her form was forever painted into the sky, so she would be always with Seth. Forevermore.
