Mai: Alright! Thank you so much icegirl for informing me that you love my
story. ^_^, and for your kindness I shall reward you with Chapter 9!
~Bakura's POV~
"Run faster Marik!" We ran down the brightly lit corridor to room seven in the east wing of the hospital.
A doctor ran in front of me stopping us from proceeding. "You cannot go any further. Only family can see the patients right now."
I grabbed the doctor by the shirt and lifted him off his feet. "I'm more of the girl's family than that Pharaoh could ever be. Now you get out of my way or suffer the worst fate that anyone could ever receive."
The doctor was shuddering from fear under my grip as I threw him to the side. "Watch him."
Marik nodded pulling out his Millennium Rod and leaned back against the wall watching the doctor.
I continued on and busted open the door of room seven. I saw her lying there, pale as white snow. I sat down and took her hand into mine. I kissed it lightly then leaned in towards her and kissed her on the cheek. "What happen to you? Why?" I shook with anger. "That pharaoh will pay. He must have done this. He isn't here to take care of you."

"She may be unconscious for a few days. There is no guarantee that she'll be alright. I'm sorry."
I sat in a chair next to Chris' bedside and stared out the window across from me absent mindedly. The doctor noticed I didn't respond to him and departed out of the room. Ryou stood against the wall crying as Malik tried to sooth away his tears. Marik didn't even come. He didn't even leave his room when he found out about Chris a few days ago. Never in my life have I ever felt so weak and vulnerable.
"I'm taking Ryou home." I heard Malik say then walked out with Ryou.
I looked down at Chris as warm tears strung my eyes.
~*~Flashback from Chris' POV~*~
"Don't leave me. I don't want to be alone." Bakura cried out and started speaking another language which I guessed was ancient Egyptian.
I slipped my hand over his and gripped it slightly as he fell silent again. I shifted in the bed and turned to face him. His hair hung loosely over his face as his eyes twitched slightly as they became moistened. 'Why is he crying in his sleep?'
"No, don't leave me!" he yelled suddenly throwing his arms around me and held me tightly against him.
"Bakura, hey Bakura. It's alright." I wrapped my arms around him. He opened his eyes as tears poured out of them. I held him close to me trying to sooth him. "It's okay. No one left you. I'm right here and Ryou is sleeping in his room. It's all okay."
"I'm scared." Bakura said in a weak voice.
~*~End of flashback and back to Bakura's POV~*~
I closed my eyes as I sobbed clenching Chris' hand. "Don't leave me Chris. I love you and I'm sorry it took me so long to tell you. I was your secret admirer that left you those gifts. But what good am I if I can't save you from this? I love you and I don't want to lose you!" I collapsed onto my knees onto the floor. I cried for ours not moving from her side.
~Crystal's POV~
I stood in empty blackness alone. I started to walk on direction but I wasn't sure I was actually moving. Then I felt myself run right smack into something hard. I placed my hand on the surface and felt it. It then suddenly moved. I froze not moving at all. I felt something huge move and felt and heard it sniff me. It moved again and made a really loud noise. It roared! I then felt claws wrap around my body as it lifted me off the ground. I heard flapping of wings as the creature lifted up into the air. We flew up higher as a bright light seemed to descent upon us. Suddenly we reached the light only to be surrounded by sunlight. I gazed at the view below me, it was beautiful. There were forests, mountains, wastelands and fields. There were ice lands and eve dark lands and the wide open sea.
The creature that held me let out another roar as I shot up to look to see what has captured me.
My eyes grew wide with shock. "The Blue Eyes White Dragon! But how?"
The dragon looked down at me as if it understood what I said. It then diverted its eyes and began to fly off to the meadows. I continued to stare at the magnificent sight of the white dragon. It looked just like the picture on the cards. It was strong, beautiful, and very graceful when moving and flying.
My attention was shattered when I heard someone yell up with a loud voice.
"Down here!"
I looked down smiling as I saw an old friend but in a different attire. "Mahado!"
The dragon landed on the ground and released me onto the grass below.
I ran over to Mahado and hugged him tightly. I then heard a squeal and saw a girl with a weird outfit on run over and hug me.
"Princess! You came! You are finally here!"
I stared in shock at her then I glanced up at Mahado with confusion clouding my eyes.
"Yes, it was you in the imaged you saw before you." Answered Mahado.
Suddenly I was greeted by another hug from a girl with pale skin and blue eyes. "Hello Princess."
"Chris, you know Mana because you saw her in those memories but you failed to meet Kisara."
"You.look familiar."
She smiled then laughed softly. "Well I should, you kept staring at me as I carried you here."
I stared at her startled. "You are the Blue Eyes White Dragon?" I asked in disbelief.
She nodded while still smiling.
"Mana is the Dark Magician girl." Said Mahado.
"So you are all Duel Monsters?"
"Yes we are. I sacrificed myself and became one. High Priest Seto scarified Kisara and Mana used her magic."
"I'm not."
"Responsible for what happen to me because of Bakura? No. Bakura kept causing your father grief. I was sent to rebury your grandfather, Akunumkanon, and protect him from Bakura. But instead I set up a trap to stop him. I failed and so I sacrificed myself to be a forever servant to your father." Mahado closed his eyes as tears started to burn through mine.
"I'm sorry."
"It is not your fault; it was out of everyone's hands. I knew how much you loved Bakura but concern for you family came before your heart." Mahado knelt in front of me and took my hands into his and kissed each of them then looked up to me while he started to cry. "I am sorry Princess for letting your family down. But most importantly I am sorry for the grief and aching I caused you. Please, now since the truth has been uncovered, can you please forgive me?"
Kisara glanced at Mana as Mana shrugged slightly; they both remained silent.
"Mahado, I love you and consider you family. You might have failed to protect my grandfather's body and complete the tasks my father asked of you, but you never failed to watch over me and be my friend. Of course I forgive you. I could never live with myself if I never did so." I wrapped my arms around his neck as he hugged me back tightly.
~Yami's POV~
"Is she going to be alright, Yami?"
I looked down at my hikari and gave him a reassuring nod. "Yes Yugi, she will be fine. Her mind is witnessing events of the past and she is talking with Mahado. She will be fine." I gazed out the window with sadness clouding my eyes.
"I hope you're right. I'm going to go over to Joey's house. We have a project due in a few weeks." Yugi walked out of the room leaving me to my thoughts.
'It was so long ago. Chris never found out what horrible things Bakura did. She never knew.'
I stared out the window as rain splattered against it. Lightning flashed as I heard a slight purr of thunder in the distance.
"This turn of events will change Chris' outlook on everything. I just hope she gets through it quickly and safely."
~Crystal's POV~
"So where am I?" I asked while wondering around the field glancing at flowers with Mahado following me.
"You are in the world of Duel Monsters. It's a beautiful place, yes, but I prefer Egypt instead."
I laughed as I allowed myself to fall backwards into a patch of lustrous green grass. "I like it here. I wish I could stay here with you."
"That's not possible. Princess, your time here right now is up. But with the Millennium Necklace, you can return."
"So that's how I got here and saw those visions?"
"Yes, but you can visit again another time. Right now, Bakura is waiting for you to awaken."
After Mahado spoke he and everything else seem to fade away and turn to black.
Mai: Well, that is what I call a long chapter. *body hurts from sitting here typing* I leave you guessing on what happens next! You know the drill if you want another chapter, review!
