KITG: Hey there Guys, seems some of you were a bit shocked with the cliffy, I had better continue then.

Yugi: Yeah. What's going to happen to me?

KITG: you'll see.

Yami: YUGI! MY AIBOU! YOU HAD BETTER NOT KILL HIM!

KITG: Eeep. Calm down Yami.

End of the loyal

Yami screamed as his heart broke. It was as if time slowed, his breath ripped from him as his scream took form. He watched Yugi scream in pain as his wing broke, black feathers fluttering past his vision as Yugi plummeted past the balcony to what he knew was the Anubis gate waiting for him. Ruia laughed high and long. Her triumph at seeing Yami break down. She walked past Galen, her face set into a sneer.

"Oh poor baby, have you lost your love, hehehe."

"You will pay, I will make you pay for what you have done!" Yami pulled at his bonds trying to get to the abomination before him. She just laughed a wave of her hand and he was held back, invisible hands round his throat. He coughed as his windpipe was closing. Her laugh of triumph ringing in his ears. He looked as hunters poured in, bringing Seirei, Seto and Jou to their knees before them. Outside thunder cracked the sky as the swirling of the Anubis gate roared to the heavens. The clouds swirled and collided, breaking in their fury. Amongst all of this came another laugh. One chocking on blood. Ruia's eyes narrowed as she turned to the laughing form of Galen. His eye looking at her in pure confidence.

"And why might I ask are you laughing for?" she brought the tip of the blade to his neck. He looked straight past her, looking at Yami.

"Do not fear my pharaoh. Do you really think I would let him die?" Yami grabbed onto hope at those words.

"How would you have stopped it Galen? You were in no condition to move." Then she heard a cracking sound, she looked to the balcony, Yami and the others followed their gaze, there stuck into the marble was Galen's sword, slowly cracks were forming across the silver blade. Then over the top of the balcony came Yugi, the shadow dragons bringing him from the grasp of death. They placed him onto the floor before Yami, Yugi ran over to him, hugging him tightly as Yami cried blood tears.

"I thought I had lost you" he kissed Yugi between the words and sobs.

"I told you I would never leave you."

"Thank you my dragon's for fulfilling my last request. I know your link is breaking. I set you free of me" they turned to Galen's weak words, to see the shadow dragons rubbing against Galen, their cries of sorrow at now having to leave. They moved from him crying as one. Then there was a loud crack and a tinkling sound s Galen's loyal sword broke. It's power now lost.

" Galen you dare stand against me?" Ruia snarled

"I dare. And am. I do not fear you. Ra will guide me. He knows you Ruia, and Muat will find you at the scales. And no power will save you from your fate." Galen took a deep breath, and to the shock of them all got to his feet, he picked up Seirei's blade that had fallen near him in her fight.

"Mind if I borrow this my dear friend?" Seirei could only nod dumbly; Galen swung the blade experimentally, and then stood ready.

"You fool. You can't fight me, not now, not ever. Especially not how you are. Very well, if you wish to die so much. Then get ready to pass to the underworld."

Ruia rushed Galen, blades clashing in sparking fire. Their rage meeting each other in the impact, Galen twisted his wrist making Ruia overbalance, sending the blade which meant death to Galen flying away from his body, he spun round as did she and they met again. Galen's blood began to cover the black Marble. Yami watched as they fought. A sense of dread pervading his very being.

"I've played with you long enough." Ruia disappeared in a blinding move; there was a sound of sword sheathing I flesh. Then it was like they could see once more; Ruia was behind Galen, his face twisted in pain, a sword protruding from his chest.

"Galen" Yugi shouted, rushing over to him as he fell to his knees. He caught the palace guard as he fell backwards. Ruia laughing once more.

"Galen, don't die please"

"No….choice….little vampire." He coughed, but then smiled." but I'm not finished yet. And nether are you. You have a power of Pharaoh's inside you."

"Not finished, you don't know when to die do you." Ruia snarled with contempt.

"You always underestimated me Ruia. I have one bound to me." Galen closed his eyes, and started to talk in a weak voice as life began to leave him. "Red dragon of Egypt. I call you by my lifeblood. Servant of the dark magician. Come before me, and help the master of the dark magician." Ruia stepped back as Galen's blood began to take shape. It writhed, and then the blood took definition, glowing eyes, nostrils, and teeth. And there, in all her strength stood the Red Dragon of Egypt. It turned to Galen, sadness in its eyes; it turned to Ruia, to attack her. But Galen voice stopped her.

" No great Dragon. She is not yours to feast upon, her death belongs to another. Free your lord, and fest on the others." The red dragon bowed to Galen, he in return nodded his thanks. Then life left him, as Galen closed his eyes on final time….

The red dragon roared her rage at his passing. She flung herself across the room, banishing the bonds holding Yami. He walked forward, eyes looking at Galen, Yugi cradling his form. Then he watched as Red Dragon of Egypt launched herself at the other hunters. She bit down, blood flowing as they screamed in death. The others now free, as the hunters fled began to fight back. Seirei fought hard, tears streaming as she looked to the fallen form of Galen. He had been dear to her. Gave her life, when her boyfriend had cruelly taken hers. He had let her take revenge, and looked after her like no other. Now he lay broken on the floor, he had not deserved this. She went over to him, still being held by Yugi. She stroked Galen's lack face. Tears now falling

"I'm sorry Seirei, I'm so sorry," Yugi whispered, his tears joining hers.

"It's ok Yugi, he died protecting the Pharaoh. It was a good death." Seirei reached down and took back her blade, she felt blessed that she had been able to help him in his cause. Yugi laid Glen reverently down, then stood and watched as Red Dragon of Egypt backed Pegasus into a wall. The dragon looked to Yugi, it voice in his mind.

"May I young master?"

"Yes, give him what he deserves."

"In your name I will cause him to scream"

Color drained from Pegasus's face as the Dragon drew closer. It opened its jaws; eyes narrowing in its glee to finally make this one pay. Red dragon pinned him screaming to the floor. It slowly racked its claws down his body. He screamed, Red dragon lapped at the blood that flowed. She opened her jaws, ready to devour him; she would make him suffer for all eternity. Her time here was done, the power of Galen's blood now fading. She turned to Yami.

"My master. Your loyal servant and my master awaits your command" With that the Red Dragon disappeared in a shower of blood.

"I have had enough of this. You will die now" Ruia summoned a monster from the shadow realm. The Wolf of Anubis. "I challenge you Atemu"

"You challenge me to a shadow game. So be it. Dark magician. I call you." The dark magician came at his master's call, his purple robe billowing in an unknown breeze; he bowed before Yami, and then turned to Ruia.

"Yugi. Stay with the others." Yami said to Yugi, then waked toward Ruia. "You will not beat us Ruia, Go dark magician."

"Go Wolf of Anubis." The great wolf leapt forward, the dark magician jump effortlessly out of the way. He turned back and pointed his staff at the wolf. Dark magic shot out of his staff, with a howl the wolf went to oblivion. All cheered as the dark magician went back to stand beside Yami.

"Is that all you have Ruia. I'm disappointed." Yami sneered. But Ruia just glared back. Then called on another.

"I call a sacred warrior of Anubis." And wind grew and out of a portal came a bringing, it had the body of a well-muscled man, and a head of a Jackal, it pulled out a scimitar, and launched at the dark magician. Sword met staff, eyes close to each other. The Anubis warrior moved fast, pushing back the dark magician, he rolled back to his feet and run back to the Anubis warrior. They clashed again, the dark magician now having the upper hand. The fight was turning fierce, the others rooting for the dark magician. The Anubis warrior whipped round his blade, if it had struck home, it would have impaled the dark magician, but he parried it with the help of his staff. It sparked all gasped as blood pattered top the floor. The dark magician stumbled back, a cut on his cheek. He snarled in anger. He and in, a roar of rage leaving his lips. The Anubis warrior went to counter, there was a clang, and the blade went flying. Then the dark magician pointed his staff. The warrior met the same fate as the wolf. The dark magician stepped back once more.

"Give up Ruia, you have lost. Nothing you can summon will defeat me."

"Nothing? I will show you nothing. Oh great guardian. I summon you. Come before me"

They sky was rent by lightning as the clouds parted. Bright gold light blazed down. All were momentarily blinded. When the light passed, all opened their yes to be greeted with a sight that struck fear in them all.

"No, it can't be" Yami gasped

"You see Yami, you can never beat me." Ruia laughed standing before a great form. Its gold feathers rippling as it sated aloft. The gold about it glittering. Eyes never leaving them but somehow wrong.

"Winged dragon of Ra. Destroy the dark magician" the ancient god roared, blasting forth a flame, the Dark magician had no defence. He fell, his cream of pain, and rage of failure ringing. Ruia laughed as Yami took a step back. His mind confused, had Ra forsaken him? Had what Galen said wrong? Than He had really bee forsaken, not part of a great plan as he thought

"Now you understand. And now it ends once and for all. Galen can't save you this time. NOW DIE…….."
