After All This: Chapter three
Danu coughed and glanced around uneasily at the obvious tension that had built up in the room during the story. "If you're interested in knowing, the hallway just outside of this door is the hallway in which the tale is held."
"Now that's what I'm interested in reading." Bakura said, as he quickly walked by everyone and headed to the hallway.
Frowning sadly, Yami quickly followed his lover out of the room with the other three following behind.
"So Danu, how far does this tale go along this wall before you cannot read it?" Bakura asked, as he quickly read it.
"Well the last part that I was able to read is when they start talking about an uproar in the southern area, some caves or something." Danu said. "Anyways, a thief or something was angered by what took place on the day of the Pharaoh's sacrifice and raised a pretty huge uproar in the land of thieves."
"Yeah, the caves to the south of here. I remember them well; I spent most of my life hiding there among others." Bakura said. "Many called it the Cave of Thieves, what it's truly called I have no idea."
"Is there a chance that after the Pharaoh's death that the thieves took over the lands and that tale is written in there language?" Ryou questioned.
"Well yes, that's very possible." Bakura nodded. "There was a language that the thieves used; it was created way before I was born."
"It's just past the Pharaoh's personnel area that the rest of the tale is written out." Danu said.
"As interesting as this all is, why would the thieves want to raise uproar? Wouldn't they be pleased to know that the Pharaoh was dead?" Yugi asked.
"Not when you kill there leader they wouldn't." Yami muttered.
"Leader?" Ryou echoed.
"That be me, I was often called the king of thieves." Bakura said. "Hey isn't there a movie out there called that?"
Everyone turned to glance at Bakura for a quick second before going back to there business.
"Err, yes Bakura there is. Odd time to bring that up." Ryou coughed. "So umm, does someone mind reading this all out, I'm afraid I need to freshen up on reading Hieroglyphics."
"Oh yes, of course." Danu nodded. "It say's here...
A great darkness has been sweeping over the land of late. The Thieves from the caves have become more trouble then their worth and their leader seems almost un-stoppable. The shadow magic from these shadow games has become worse than anything ever possible, it's believed if someone doesn't end this then this world... is doomed. Lucky for us the Pharaoh Yami has done just that, with the help of the King of Thieves the Pharaoh has locked away all shadow magic, unfortunately this also required for his and the thief's souls to be locked away in there Millennium item's, the Puzzle and Ring. Pharaoh Yami has requested that we take all the item's and place them on his father's tomb, we do as requested and discover that one out of the seven item's is missing and we fear seeing it was taken the same time as the ring that it dwells in the cave of the thieves.
There is a huge uproar in the land of thieves, news of their king being dead has hit them hard and they send their angry towards us. I fear if they attack there won't be much for us to do but watch as they kill or in slave most of us. There new leader is angrier then any, why we don't know but we believe that he may hold the other item.
It's been almost a year since are fallen Pharaoh, the nation now runs smoothly once again with the new leader we have upon the throne. He managed to drive all thieves out of the land but this makes more fearful, for they are already angry and this action has helped none.
War! They've declared war upon this nation! They have slaughtered many men and captured the women and children of the southern village closet to the caves. It won't take them long to reach the palace, who knew there was so many of them. It's now that we wonder if we'd be better off with the shadow magic. But are Pharaoh sacrificed his life for the people by destroying the evil of the shadows. We won't let his death go in vain.
Pharaoh Heio has been Murder! The thieves are now in the palace. We realize that this is the new king of thieves that has stroked, we were surprised to find out that him his none other then...
"And that's where it end's it seems that the place was attacked before it could have ever been finished." Danu said.
Bakura nodded slightly and walked forward along the wall, his face showed puzzlement as he was obviously the only one who could read them strange language.
"So, what does it say?" Yami asked, as he stepped up beside Bakura.
"It is written by the new King of Thieves, it say's here..."
Long have I waited in the shadow of the Pharaoh's son Yami. I couldn't believe my luck when the Pharaoh finally fell, and Yami took over. I spent most of my years as the personnel advisor of the throne but also as one of the many spies sent out by the King of Thieves to investigate to see what is happening around here. Many battles have been fought between the side of the Pharaoh and the side of the Thieves. It is then that I had to take my leave from the Pharaoh's side and return to my King's side. He ordered me to take over and lead the men while he went into the enemy's home lands. Not longer after, the thing I feared the most has happened. He has been caught and forever taken from me. News's of his death and the Pharaoh has hit our ears like poison and we will do anything to take control over the city.
