Chapter 19

Amenhotep's secret deal, Sacrificed soul

Andy walked up the stairs to let his sister know when it was time to come down; Kate pulled the vial over Jenny's face. "You look great Jen," said Andy as he took his sister's hand, "Thanks," Jenny answered smiling. "I want to ask you something before we take you down stairs," Andy said. Kate saw that her twin brother wanted to talk to their sister alone, "more of you want to talk to her, so I will head down and make sure the cost is clear," said Kate walking out of the room.

Andy scratched the back of his short black and slightly blue hair, "Well, after all this time, she still knows me," he said. Jenny nodded, "What is it you want to ask me?" she asked. Andy smiled, "I just want to make sure, that you're doing this because you want to, and…" he paused looking at his younger sister not wanting to let her go, "I want you to be happy, without regrets," he said. Jenny smiled, "I have none just that I want everyone to be happy," she said.

Andy kissed his sister's forehead or at least the part visible near her eyes, "ok, just as long you don't have to sacrifice that happiness and make yourself miserable, I don't need that rebel like sister, I like this one right here in front of me and you look beautiful, tonight. I know your prince boy out there is going to flip over you," he said with a laugh, "now shall we."

Jenny took Andy's extended arm and they walked towards the door.

Downstairs in the throne room

Orin sat next to his father as the party feast was taking place; Orin appeared to be bored out of his mind with his fist pushed against his chin, he hated how things were going. Orin was dressed in a white top, and kilt with a gold belt around him, the millennium eye crown of the prince was on his forehead, and gold bands on his arms.

"Father I can't enjoy my birthday knowing Jenny is in bed sick, why can't I just sneak away for a few minutes, just to check on her, she may need me," he said. Amenhotep quickly silenced his son, "Orin, I didn't bring you in to my house so that you couldn't enjoy life with a girl that is younger then you by many years, now this is your party remember, but Jenny sends this message, "have a good time," said Amenhotep. He was not lying about that, Jenny did send that message except there was an addition to it, was enjoy, it after she got there.

Orin turned his attention to the belly dancers watching the other males in the room, gawk at them. Orin smiled knowing that he would at the end of the party get to see Jenny at least; she had not given him, his present, which they both agreed upon many weeks ago however with her sick he would be happy just to lay next to Jenny.

Orin turned his eyes towards Seto and Alec as they watched, Andy who came in to the room with a grin on his face, whispered something to his parents and left, when he returned with Kate moments later. Kate ran over to Troy, bopped him on the head, and dragged him away from the belly dancers, which he had been drooling over for the last half an hour.

Alec and Joey laughed as they watched their children argue and kiss, yell then kiss some more and eventually disappear from sight. Seto gave a slight chuckle at the sight of Troy and his oldest daughter, he liked that at least Kate was not going down easy with mutt boy's son. Joey in particular was happy, his son did not give up on Kate to easily either; however, the fact that Kate was related to Kaiba, it was not so much of an issue, except that he just didn't like the girl's father. If it were not for the insults Joey had gotten in the past, Joey would approve more of Kathleen Kaiba, but hey what was to stop his son from falling for a dragon princess.

The drums begin to play as the some entertainers entered the room dressed in white, Orin's interest peeked a little but his mind still stayed on Jenny, which he thought was in Melissa's old room. Orin watched but did not show interest until one girl got close, but soon he moved his eyes to Jenna who was next to him giggling.

"I know your enjoying my misery dear sister but would you please cut it out," he said tickling his little sister under her neck. Jenna squeezed her head against her shoulder to try to stop her brother from the tickle however failed and giggled more. Amenhotep looked over at Orin; he quickly elbowed his son in the ribs as the drums and the music begin to play faster.

A gentle soothing voice filled the air, Orin recognized the voice quickly he thought it was Jenny but soon thought it was not her because how can a sick woman be out on the floor there just wasn't any way for it to be possible, little did he know he was wrong. A girl moved forward while the music played, she was the one singing.

Her eyes captured Orin, the purple and blue mix within them like pools of hidden oasis, the woman sang and her voice had the most beautiful sound, Orin had ever heard in his life. Amenhotep stood up, "It appears Orin's betrothed has arrived," he announced.

The Orin's eyes widened 'my betrothed' he thought in a panic, quickly without much thought, 'Oh no Jenny must have known that is why she did not want to stay with me last night and now she avoiding me.' Orin did not know what to do, he knew that it was not Jenny in front of him now, and he promised to be with Jenny that he would spend the rest of his life and to never touch another woman other then her.

Amenhotep got up from his seat, Orin looked at him, he did not want this not now, not after he found the love of his life and she was sick in bed or so he continued to think. Amenhotep looked at the crowd and looked at the woman now with the other dancer bowing to her.

"My friends and dear honored guests, today we celebrate the 20th birthday of my son Orin, and now for his gift, from neighbors of far," said the Pharaoh.

Orin did not know what to do, he was so confused and frustrated, if his emotions were not in such great check he would have shown it right away that he was not happy about this, not one little bit, for he wanted Jenny to be his wife, his only wife if at all.

Orin stood up from his seat, and cleared his throat, "So what is my gift Father?" he spoke hiding his unhappy and unpleasant emotions. Amenhotep motioned his hand towards the girl that was standing in the middle of the room with the other nine girls around her bowing.

"Go, see the face of you future wife my son," Amenhotep said. Seto and Alec looked at Amenhotep; they could see that Orin did not realize who was standing there and whose voice he had heard singing moments ago. Orin looked at his father, "I can't," he whispered to his father however, he still had no choice.

Jenna reached behind her brother and gave him a push towards the girl, "Go, horse dung," she said quietly. Orin looked at her as she was speaking, as if Jenny would have been in the room, or if she was in the room at that moment.

Orin walked up to the girl only her nose, mouth and hair as a vial while her eyes remained for him to see. Orin walked up to the girl,' I cannot do this, I love Jenny and she loves me is not that worth anything?' he asked himself. The girl stood in front of him, Orin, knew there was no turning back, if he rejected his father's present, then what was he to do if to take the thrown and got something he did not want again.

Orin slow took his hand and removed the vial that covered the girl's face, Orin had the most astonished look on his face, and it was priceless as his jaw fell out of place.

He did the only thing he could do as he looked at girl and quickly kissed her, "Jenny," he said pulling away after the kiss. Seto and Alec were smiling from ear to ear they got, Orin good with Jenny, as Orin looked at them, Alec gave a small nod, and Seto was beaming at his daughter as he started laughing along with everyone else that had been in on it even Jenna was laughing holding her ribs in her little throne.

Jenny giggled, "Surprised, Prince Orion, oh and Happy birthday," she said hugging him with the largest smile she could produce.

The throne room broke out in applause as well as laughter, as Orin and Jenny started to make out in the middle of the room. Andy who watched the whole time and Kate who had returned a little unorganized with Troy, looked at their little sister, but they knew she was not little anymore, for she was now a grown into a woman trapped in a teenage body of a 17 year old.

They walked over to the little couple, "Ok break it up, you two have all night to do that," said Andy in a joking matter, even though it was sarcastic tone he was using. Orin looked at Andy, "Hey it's my birthday, so go get, your own girl," he snapped pushing Andy aside playfully.

Jenny laughed, "Let my brother have his fun, besides you don't have a clue what you're in for tonight," she said in seductive manner and winking at him.

Orin raised an eyebrow "Well, then I better get you off to my chambers," he said with a small laugh. Jenny giggled, "And miss this party, I just spent the entire day in that darn, Star trial room, I am not going to miss your birthday party, Prince Orion," she snapped. Orin laughed, "Well then, what are we waiting for," he said lifting up Jenny in his arms bridal style, "Hey this is my birthday party and I say, let party."

Jenny smiled and looked at her parents as everyone cheered, "Thanks you," she said to them each in her mind. Seto and Alec both bowed their heads and closed their eyes telling her they got the message.

Jenny sat with Orin at the throne, on his lap is more like it with her arms around his neck occasionally kissing. Amenhotep had given his seat to Orin to set down while he went to mingle with a few good looking girls. "Well it appears my room won't be the only one," he said to Jenny who let out a small giggle at Amenhotep.

Jenna yawned, "I am tired big brother, I am going to bed," she said. Orin looked at her, "You are up pretty late, good night my little baby princess, and thanks for helping, surprising me," he said to her giving her a great hug. "Happy Birthday and sorry I lied to you about Jenny being sick," she said. Orin laughed, "It was good surprise, I forgive you," he said gently pushing his sister towards the hall, which there rooms stood, "now go to bed," he added.

Suddenly the doors to the thrown room opened a great burst of wind, as a woman was, tossed to the middle of the room. "Sara!" yelled Alec, seeing who it was and ran to her sister's side. "Alec!" said Seto pulling her back so that he could protect her if necessary.

Sara's body appeared to be lifeless, "Pharaoh Amenhotep I thought we had an agreement, about this armor war," said a cruel female voice. Orin stood up Jenny jumped to her feet she knew that voice all to well it was the voice of the one that controlled her cousin and Aunt.

Amenhotep turned his head, as a tall woman with long black hair and pale skin walked in to the throne room, her eyes burned with fire. "Everyone that is not part of the royal court leave now!" shouted Amenhotep. Jenny looked at Orin, he was not about to let her leave his side.

Alec and Seto stood up and backed away from Sara's body, as the woman entered and everyone exited except those that were told to remain, Orin stayed with Jenny. "Saran!" spoke Alec with complete terror in her eyes.

The woman smirked, "Hello Alexandra Kaiba, miss me?" asked Saran in cruel voice. "Saran what is the meaning of this!" yelled Amenhotep pointing to Sara. Seto placed himself in front of Alec, to protect her after recognizing Saran; he was going to protect her at all costs.

"You broke our deal Amenhotep," snapped Saran, "The god armors weren't to be touched in this war," she spat. Amenhotep looked at Sara who was lying limp on the floor, "You did this to her?" he asked.

Saran shook her head, "No I didn't Ra, Obelisk and Slyfer did, and they enjoy doing this to her," she said. Sara moved slowly, her head had a deep gash in it, and her arms and legs in burses and burns appeared.

Alec ran to her sister fighting Seto's grip, getting away, "Seto, Sara is alive," she said braking free. Saran let out a bone-chilling laugh, "Yes she is alive, I am here to take back what is mine, and that is my son, Orion, from you Amenhotep!" snapped Saran.

Jenny looked at Orin who looked at the Pharaoh confused.

"Saran, I don't know what your talking about?" snapped Amenhotep quickly walking over to Orin and Jenny, "I want both of you to leave now," he barked at them, "Both of you." Orin took Jenny's hand in his, "Come on," he said moving away slowly.

"I don't think so," said Saran shooting a fireball stopping Jenny and Orin from leaving the room. Orin turned towards his adopted father as to look for another way out. "How dare you," snapped Amenhotep, "Leave my son out of this," snapped the Pharaoh.

Saran laughed, "Your son, your son," speaking louder the second time in a sarcastic tone. "Malachite would you please educate your dear stepbrother who gave him that pantheistic baby boy, on this day, 20 years ago," snapped Saran. Malachite stepped behind Saran "Of course, my wife," he sneered.

"What's wrong Amenhotep looks like Ra got your tongue?" snapped Malachite laughing, "Don't act so shocked you know this would be coming," he said. Alec looked at her sister, "Alec," said Sara in a quiet broken voice.

Alec looked down at her stepsister, "Don't speak your going to be alright, we will have Isis look at your wounds," she whispered. Seto took Alec around the shoulders, "No, Alec looks," he said pointing to a large red stain on Sara's brown colored dress that was starting to grow slowly.

"Oh my Ra," said Alec, "Amenhotep, Sara needs a healer fast," she said. Isis ran in the room and went straight for Sara, "Alec come on we have to get her out of here," she said quickly.

"I don't think she will be going anywhere," snapped Saran, "Sara is to die so that I can have my god armors," she snapped. Jenny felt anger build up in her, "You're lying, Saran, Orion isn't your son," she snapped.

"Jenny, stay back, and out of this," said Orin holding his betrothed back. Saran smirked, "Well then, look in to my mind, oh dear Seer, see through my eyes," she said in a cruel snake like voice. "Or better yet let me show you," snapped Saran devilishly.

Jenny's forehead wrinkled her eyes squinted as Sara sent her a vision, Jenny saw flashes, she then fell down to the ground, "NO!" she screamed. Andy and Kate ran to their sister as Orin helped Jenny up calling her name, "Jenny?" spoke Orin wondering if she was all right. Jenny was crying, suddenly as Orin held her, "What did you do to her Saran?" he barked.

Saran moved forward, "I showed Jenny my past, everything about it, even your birth, Orin or should I say Orion Marcus," she smirked. Jenny nodded her head, when Orin turned his gaze to Jenny, as she was in her brother's arms. "Jenny?" he asked.

Jenny closed her eyes, "It is true Orion, I am sorry, but she actually telling the truth," she said crying. Saran laughed, "Speak a little louder Jenny dear, I don't think everyone heard you clearly, because I heard you say it was true and I want to hear you say it a little louder," chuckled Saran.

"AHHHHHHHH!" screamed Jenny as she was forced to speak, "It's true," she was forced to speak out. Anger, hate, love, all of Jenny emotions were spinning out of control while Saran was forcing the words out of her mouth. Jenny loved Orion desperately, but to find out that he was related to Saran was making it hard for her to look at him, now and she did not know why, he look nothing like her.

"I have watched for too long, Amenhotep, I want my son on my side of this war, he is to be on my winning side," snapped Saran. Seto and Alec looked at Saran "You, you started this!" snapped Alec.

Saran laughed, "Who better, I fixed it up nicely first I get Melissa to carry me around in her body and let me help her convince you all that I was good suddenly. Then get Jenny, and all of you here, in this time with no way out, for the gate has been destroyed," she laughed.

Alec looked at Mokuba and Marik who, just came running from the stables out of breath, "Please tell me it's not true?" snapped Alec to Marik.

Marik and Mokuba lowered their head, "Sorry Alec we couldn't stop her, the armors we had weren't strong enough she blew right though us. The gate is gone, we can't get back to the present," Mokuba said as his wife, Yamu walked into the room.

Jenny looked at her two Uncles and shook her head, "No it can't be gone," she said knowing that gate was the only way home the only way to see Melissa and Sara again.

Saran laughed, "This is too, good, I have some of the most powerful armors and now am about to get the best ever created." Alec looked at Seto and Andy, "You want see powerful armors Saran," snapped Alec. "Mom, Don't!" yelled Jenny. Alec and Seto shot looks at there daughter, "I am going to fight Saran," she said.

Orin and everyone in the room look at Jenny; she did not have any armor how was she going to fight. "Jenny, I want you to stay with Orin and get out of the way," snapped Andy. Orin took Jenny in his arms, "let them fight her," he said. Jenny shook her head, "Orion," she said letting the tears in her eyes build up.

Jenny felt something touch her heart, something powerful welded up inside her as if all the anger of a tormented god was inside her suddenly. Sara's eyes shot open, "Let the god armors be freed," she whispered, in a soft voice be fore passing out once again.

Orin let go of Jenny, "Jenny?" he said feeling her grow hot. "Saran, Orin is the rightful hare to the thrown and you aren't his mother," snapped Amenhotep.

"Oh Amenhotep your deal with me is over," snapped Saran making a fireball with her hand and shooting it at Amenhotep. "FATHER!" yelled Orin, as he felt something touch his heart, like fire, as if granted to him by the gods. Saran took a fireball and threw it at Yugi and Tea knocking them out against a near by wall, along with their two kids Matthew and Jade, "Well that puts an end to the king of lame games, with his troops, and now for the Kaibas and my revenge."

Jenny felt a sudden bust of energy as if someone or something was calling her, "Jenny my power I give to you as the one of anger and hate but of love and vengeance, one that has been tormented become me, the tormentor," it said to her. Jenny felt her body change as her heart became a ball of anger and pain that she was feeling, she did not want to lose anymore family.

Saran was laughing madly as she raises her next fireball to finish off Alec who had been knocked away from Seto. "It ends now Alexandra, I am now going to finish what I started when I took your first child," she said laughing and gloating then seeing a bright light, "What the, oaf," said Saran as she felt a blast of energy, a fist and a firry whip hit her hard against a near by pillar.

Alec turned her head she saw, Jenny stood in blue plated armor she crown of Obelisk the tormentor was on her head. Orin stood in gold next to her with a large whip in hand with a blue gem on his forehead, and Matt covered in red armor with the second mouth of Slyfer the sky dragon over his face.

"NO my Armors," yelled Saran. Sara sat up, "You get nothing Saran they have chosen my family and friends, over you," she said collapsing. Saran grabbed her shoulder in pain, "I will be back for all of you," she said looking at Jenny, "Especially you, Jennifer. Malachite come on our son seem to be against us, for now," said Saran limping away, Malachite and Saran disappeared from sight; Jenny, Matt and Orin deactivated their new armors and fell to the floor.

Alec ran to her sister, "Sara," she said, "Come wake up," she cried. Kate touched her mother's shoulder, "Mom she's gone," she said. Sara's body lay lifeless on the floor with Alec crying over it, "NO, she can't be gone, Sara comes on wake up," she cried.

Jenna walked in to the room, "Father," she screamed seeing Amenhotep on the floor, Orin had just woke up when his sister headed for there dead father, "No Jenna," he said taking her in his arms as she started to cry, "I am sorry sister, he is dead, now." Jenny shook her head as she and Matt woke up.

Orin looked at Jenny as she saw him hold Jenna, as she cried, "He can't be gone, Orion he can't be gone, not all of them," she cried "first mother then Jena and now father." Jenny let a tear fall down her face as she saw that her Aunt was dead also, now two of her family was gone, and not knowing who would be next on Saran's hit list or who will be next to leave.
