Chapter 4
"I'm sorry. But, he's in a coma. You can go on in and see him." Dr. Carter said.
Yami ran into Yugi's room, then Yami froze at the sight of Yugi. Yugi had an oxygen tube down his throat to force him to breath. Yugi was also hooked up to a heart monitor. Yami ran over to Yugi's bedside and held his hand.
"Hang on." Yami pled.
Yami genitally lay Yugi's hand back on the bed and ran over to the phone. Yami called the Kame Game Shop. Joey answered the phone.
"Kame Game Shop." Joey said.
"Hey, Joey." Yami said.
"Hey, Yami, where are ya?" Joey asked with concern.
"The hospital." Yami said sadly.
"What happened?" Joey asked with concern.
"High Priest Yahiya father is alive and tried to take control over Yugi. He tortured Yugi. Yugi collapsed from the pain and hit his head pretty hard. Joey he's in the hospital." Yami said sadly.
"How bad's he hurt?" Joey asked with concern.
"He's in a coma." Yami said sadly.
"I'll be right dere." Joey said sadly.
Then Joey hung up the phone. Joey looked at Téa and grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her out leaving Nabila behind with the others.
"What's wrong, Joey?" Téa asked as Joey got in his car.
Then Téa got in the passenger seat. Joey sighed and looked at Téa.
"I hate ta tell ya dis. But, Yug's in a coma." Joey said sadly.
"Oh, no." Téa said sadly.
"Let's go." Joey said as he started his car and headed towards the hospital.
Téa nodded.
"Right." Téa said.
"I'm sure he'll be fine." Joey said.
"I know." Téa said.
MEANWHILE WITH YAMI AND YUGI
Yami went back to holding Yugi's hand.
"Hang on, brother." Yami said.
'Please, hang on.'
MEANWHILE WITH JOEY AND TÉA
"Is Yami, with him?" Téa asked with concern.
"Yeah." Joey said.
"Good." Téa said sadly.
"Accordin' ta Yami, High Priest Yahiya's dad attacked Yug." Joey said.
Téa frowned.
A FEW MINUTES LATER
They arrived at the hospital.
A FEW MINUTES LATER
Joey and Téa walked into Yugi's room. Téa gasped at the sight of her husband.
"Oh no." Téa said sadly.
Téa rushed to Yugi's side and Yami let go of Yugi's hand and stepped aside. Téa held her husband's hand. Then Dr. Carter walked into the room, he looked at Joey, and then he looked at Téa.
"Who are they?" Dr. Carter asked.
"The blond boy is Joey Wheeler, and the girl is Téa Motou, she's Yugi's wife, and Joey is Yugi's best friend." Yami said.
"Will Yugi wake up!" Téa demanded with worry in her voice.
"I don't know." Dr. Carter said.
A MONTH LATER
Yami went to see Yugi ((Which he had been doing everyday all month at the same time.)) and walked into the hospital room and over to Yugi's bedside and held Yugi's hand.
"Wake up." Yami pled with worry in his voice.
:Yami:
Yami's eyes widen in shock.
'Yugi, can you hear me?'
Yugi's eyes slowly open. Yami ran out and ran to the nurse's station.
"Send for Dr. Carter." Yami said.
"Why?" Carol the head nurse asked.
"My brother's awake." Yami said.
A FEW MINUTES LATER
Dr. Carter took the oxygen tube out.
"It maybe a few days before your brother can talk." Dr. Carter said.
"OK." Yami said.
:Yami, what happened:
'Yugi, you've been in a coma for a month.'
:A month:
'Yeah.'
:How'd I get back to Domino:
'You don't know?'
:No.:
'What's the last thing you remember?'
:Téa walked into my office in London, it was a month after our wedding. She had just told me she was pregnant.:
Yami frowned.
'That was 8 years ago.'
:What:
'Yeah.'
MEANWHILE WITH JOEY
A dark figure appeared.
"So, you are Atemi's best friend?" Hisham asked.
"Who are ya!" Joey demanded.
JOEY, RUN!
'Why?
THAT'S HISHAM, HIGH PRIEST YAHIYA'S FATHER, RUN NOW!
Joey's eyes widen and he started to run out. But, Hisham raised a hand and Joey froze.
'Jono, I can't move.
Be strong.
Joey's eyes closed and his head lowered.
Joey?
Joey turned to face Hisham and bowed.
"What are your orders?" Joey asked.
Jono gasped.
"Kill Yugi." Hisham ordered.
"Yes, sire." Joey said.
Then the Horus Shadow Staff flashed and Joey disappeared and reappeared with Yugi and Yami.
:Yami, something doesn't feel right about Joey.:
'I feel it as well, Yugi.'
Yugi was standing next to the bed. Joey approached Yugi. Yami ran over to Joey.
"Joey, what's wrong?" Yami asked with concern.
Joey threw Yami into a wall knocking him out.
:YAMI:
Hisham appeared.
"Hello, Yugi." Hisham said.
Joey grabbed Yugi by the throat and started choking him.
"Kill him." Hisham said.
Yugi's vision began to blur and he nearly lost consciousness, Joey's grip on Yugi's throat tightened. Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi took over. Then a huge wave of shadow magic knocked Joey into a wall breaking his grip on Yugi's throat and breaking Hisham power over Joey. Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi turned control back over to Yugi.
"Yug?" Joey asked in confusion.
Yugi fell to his knees coughing.
JOEY!
'Jono?
Oh thank goodness.
'What happened?
Hisham put you under a shadow spell.
What?
Joey, you tried to kill Yugi.
What!
Yami woke up and forced himself to his feet. Yami glared at Hisham.
:Yami:
'Are you all right?'
:I think so. Hisham cast a shadow spell on Joey.:
'He'll pay for that.'
"PENLTY GAME! OBLIVION!" Yami shouted in anger pointing a finger at Hisham.
A wave of shadow magic hit Hisham and he disappeared apparently into the Shadow Realm.
"Joey, are you OK?" Yami asked with concern.
Joey nodded.
"Yeah." Joey said and then he ran to Yugi.
Joey kneeled down next to Yugi.
"Yug, ya ok?" Joey asked with concern.
Yugi nodded. Joey blinked. Yami cleared his throat. Joey looked at Yami in confusion.
"The oxygen tube caused some problems with Yugi's voice." Yami explained.
"Oh." Joey said.
Then Dr. Carter walked into Yugi's room.
"How are you feeling, Mr. Motou?" Dr. Carter asked.
'Tell him I'm feeling better.'
"He's feeling much better. But, he's voice still hasn't returned." Yami said.
"I see." Dr. Carter said.
"You can go home." He said.
"Why so soon?" Yami asked.
"Well there's nothing wrong with him other then the voice thing. So we have no reason to keep him." Dr. Carter said.
:Good. Yami, what about the baby:
'You had a little girl. She's back at the Kame Game Shop.'
Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi appeared in spirit form.
/Atemi, I wish I remembered her./
/I can fix that. Of course doing so will also bring back all your memories of the last 8 years./
/So/
/Yugi, you've done some horrible things in the last 8 years./
/I have/
/Yes./
'Yugi, I have to say I'm glad your back to your oldself.'
/Atemi, if you bring back those memories, will I go back to being that evil person I obviously was/
/No./
/Then do it./
/OK./
Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Yugi clutched his head. There was a bright flash and Marick appeared. Yugi shook his head and looked around.
"Marick?" Yami asked in confusion.
:He works for me.:
'He does?'
Marick ran over to Yugi.
"My Pharaoh, are you alright?" Marick asked with concern.
"He hit his head a month ago, he was in a coma. The doctors had an oxygen tube down Yugi's throat, and the oxygen tube has cause some problems with Yugi's voice." Yami explained.
"What kind of problems!" Marick demanded glaring at Yami.
"He can't speak." Yami said.
Marick looked at Yugi.
"Is this true?" Marick asked.
Yugi nodded.
"Do you still wish to go through with the plan?" Marick asked.
Yugi shook his head.
"Very well, I'll cancel the whole thing." Marick said.
:Good.:
Then there was a bright flash and Marick disappeared.
"What was dat 'bout?" Joey asked.
'Forget it.'
"Yugi says to forget it." Yami said.
"OK." Joey said.
A FEW HOURS LATER
Yugi, Yami, and Joey walked out of the hospital. Yugi and Yami got in Yami's car and Yami started the car and headed to the Kame Game Shop. Then the Horus Shadow Staff flashed and Joey disappeared and reappeared in the Kame Game Shop.
A FEW MINUTES LATER
Yugi and Yami pulled up. Then Yugi and Yami walked into the Kame Game Shop.
"Yugi!" Téa exclaimed happily.
Yugi smiled at Téa. Téa ran over to Yugi and hugged him. Yugi hugged Téa back.
"I told dem." Joey said.
"Thanks, Joey." Yami said.
/Yugi, why haven't you told them/
/I don't know./
/I can try to fix it./
/It'll be fine./
/You sure/
/Yeah./
'Yugi, are you ok?'
:Yeah.:
Then the phone rang and Téa answered it.
"Hello." Téa said.
"Hello, Mrs. Motou. This is Dr. Carter." He said.
"What is it, doctor?" Téa asked with concern.
"We did some test on your husband before we released him." Dr. Carter said.
"Yes." Téa said.
"The results are back." Dr. Carter said.
"I'm listening." Téa said.
"We can't explain it. But, somehow his vocal cords have been crushed." Dr. Carter said.
"What does that mean!" Téa demanded with worry in her voice.
"He'll never speak again. I'm sorry." Dr. Carter said.
"Good-bye, Dr. Carter." Téa said.
Then Téa hung up the phone.
"What did Dr. Carter want?" Yami asked with concern.
"He said Yugi's vocal cords have been crushed. He says Yugi will never speak again." Téa said sadly.
:I already knew.:
'You did?'
:Joey choked me while he was under Hisham's shadow spell.:
'That's when this happened?'
:Yes.:
Joey?
What is it, Jono?
I think I know how Yugi's vocal cords were crushed.
How!
Joey, you tried to choke Yugi to death.
Do ya mean I did dis ta Yug?
Yes.
Oh man.
:I don't have the heart to tell Téa.:
'Neither do I.'
"Daddy?" Nabila asked.
'Daddy's fine sweetie.' Yugi thought.
"Good." Nabila said.
'Yugi, what's going on?'
:Do I need to remind you that the Horus Shadow Pendant gives the owner the power to read minds:
'No.'
:Good. I'm pretty tired.:
'Go on to sleep.'
:OK.:
"Yugi's pretty tired." Yami said.
Yugi walked upstairs and got in bed and fell asleep.
"Guys, I'm worried about Yugi." Yami said.
"So am I." Joey said.
He knew a long time ago.
He did?
Yes, knowing Yugi he wouldn't have said anything.
I know.
Yugi woke up. Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi appeared in spirit form.
/I still can't believe I did all that./
/I know./
/I mean I killed Ishizu./
/Actually technically she still alive just stuck in the shadow realm./
/Is there anyway to bring her back/
/Yes. But, it will be difficult. /
/It's worth it./
/Are you sure/
/Yes./
/OK, let's do it./
/Yeah./
Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi fixed Yugi's voice. Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi took control over from Yugi.
MEANWHILE WITH YAMI AND THE OTHERS
The Millennium Puzzle started to glow brightly. Yami's eyes widen in fear.
"What's wrong, Yami?" Joey asked with concern.
There was a bright flash and Marick appeared.
"Yugi is about to do something very stupid." Yami said as Mahali, and Manari appeared beside him.
"Like what?" Marick asked.
"When he was evil he sent Ishizu to the Shadow Realm. And I think he's going to try and bring her back." Yami said sadly.
"He may die if he try's." Mahali said.
"I know." Yami said.
Yami and the others ran upstairs. But by the time they got up the steps and into Yugi's room a black vortex was open near Yugi. The gang could only watch helplessly. Ishizu stepped out of the vortex.
"Sister!" Marick exclaimed.
"Brother?" Ishizu asked in confusion.
"Yes, sister it's me." Marick said.
Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi turned control back over to Yugi. Then Yugi fell to his knees in exhaustion. Then the vortex disappeared.
'YUGI! Are you alright?'
:I'm fine, Yami. I'm just very tired.:
'Are you sure?'
:I'm pretty sure.:
'Go on to sleep then.'
:OK.:
'Good night, Yugi.'
:Good night, Yami.:
Yami and the gang walked out of Yugi's room followed by Nabila. Yugi managed to stand up.
"Night, daddy." Nabila said.
"Night, sweetie." Yugi said.
Then Nabila walked out of Yugi's room and closed the door behind her. Yugi smiled and walked over to the bed.
/You OK/
/Yeah, you/
/Yeah./
/Thank goodness./
Yugi sat down on the bed and layed down, still slightly weakened. Yugi quickly fell asleep.
Joey, I am very worried about Yugi.
Why? What's wrong?
That level of shadow magic, can cause extreme weakness.
What'd ya mean!
It could cause, Yugi's death in the long run.
What!
Yugi could die.
Oh man.
He knew it could happen before he did it.
I hope he knows what he's doin'.
I am sure he does.
I hope.
THE NEXT DAY
The Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi appeared in spirit form.
/Yugi/
Yugi groaned and seemed to be in pain. Atemi focused on the Millennium Puzzle. Then the Millennium Puzzle glowed faintly.
'I hope this works.' Atemi thought to himself.
Atemu, can you hear me?
Atemi?
Thank goodness, you can hear me.
What's wrong?
Something is wrong with Yugi.
I'll be right in.
Then Yami shot out of bed and ran into Yugi's room.
'Yugi?'
Yugi groaned and slowly opened his eyes.
"It...hurts...Yami." Yugi gasped out.
"Save your strength brother." Yami pled with deep concern in his voice and on his face.
:Yami:
'Easy, Yugi.'
"I...don't...think...I'm gonna...make it...Yami. I'm...sorry...brother." Yugi gasped out.
'Don't talk like that, Yugi!'
:I'm sorry.:
Yugi closed his eyes and fell asleep.
MEANWHILE IN NABILA'S ROOM
The Horus Shadow Pendant flashed and she shot up in bed and ran acrossed the hall into Yugi's room.
"Yugi." 'Nabila' said.
Yami spun to face who he thought was Nabila.
"Are you alright, Nabila?" Yami asked with worry in his voice.
Nabila's normally amethyst eyes were blue.
"Yami?" Destiny asked in confusion.
"Mother?" Yami asked in confusion.
"Yes." Destiny said.
Yugi woke.
:Yami:
Yami didn't react.
:Yami, what's wrong:
'Mother's here.'
Yugi sat up weakly.
"Lay down, Yugi." Destiny said.
:Mother's really here.:
'I know.'
:But, she's my daughter.:
'I know.'
Yugi's eyes closed, his breathing became very shallow. Yami's eyes widen in shock and fear.
'YUGI!'
Destiny ran over to Yugi's side. Destiny's hands began to glow, then there was a bright flash and Yugi's eyes snapped open, and his breathing returned to normal.
/Yugi/
/I'm fine, now anyhow./
/Mother must have healed you./
/Will is effect Nabila/
/No./
/Thank goodness./
Yugi sat up and looked at Destiny.
"It's time for me to go." Destiny said sadly.
Then the Horus Shadow Pendant flashed and Destiny turned control back over to Nabila.
"Huh?" Nabila asked in confusion.
"Hi, sweetie." Yugi said smiling at Nabila.
"Daddy." Nabila said.
'Yugi, are you alright?'
:I'm fine actually. You could say I'm in prefect health now.:
'Great!'
:It's a good thing that the spirit of the Horus Shadow Pendant took Nabila over.:
'Mother healed you didn't she?'
:Yeah.:
'Thank goodness, Yugi, you nearly died.'
:I know.:
'You know Jono and Joey were pretty worried about you when they left.'
:Really:
'Yeah.'
:What time is it:
'1:30 AM.'
:Remind me to call them in the mourning.:
Yami smiled at Yugi.
'OK.'
:Good.:
'Hey, can Nabila hear what we're saying through our mindlink?'
:When I created the Horus Shadow Pendant, I made it so mother could hear what we were saying to each other through our mindlink, so no.:
'Good.'
:Yeah.:
'Try and sleep.'
:OK.:
'Good night, Yugi.'
:Good night, Yami.:
"Come on Nabila, let's let your daddy get his sleep." Yami said taking Nabila's hand.
"K, night daddy." Nabila said.
Then Nabila and Yami walked out and closed the door behind them.
/Night, Yugi./
/Night, Atemi./
MEANWHILE WITH JOEY
Jono appeared in spirit form.
Can not sleep, can you?
No, you?
No.
I just keep think about, Yugi.
Me to.
Jono frowned worriedly.
Hey, Jono?
What is it?
Do ya think Yugi'll be OK?
Jono looked at Joey.
I hope so.
Me too.
Try and get some sleep.
OK, you too.
Good night, Joey.
Night, Jono.
MEANWHILE WITH YUGI
Yugi fell asleep.
MEANWHILE WITH JOEY AND JONO
Joey fell asleep. Then the Horus Shadow Staff flashed and Jono returned to it.
THE NEXT DAY
Yami went to check on Yugi to find he was up and dressed.
"Mourning, brother." Yami said.
"Mourning, Yami." Yugi said.
/Feeling better/
/Yes, I am, Atemi./
/Good./
Yugi walked towards the door and Yami stepped aside. Yugi walked out of his room and Yami followed him, and they went down the stairs and into the kitchen.
/You sure, you're ok/
/Yes, I am./
Yugi walked over to one of the cupboards and pulled out 2 bowls. Yami just watched him curiously. Yugi opened up another cupboard and pulled out a sack of flour, and sugar and a tin of kosher salt. Then Yugi opened up another cupboard and pulled out the oil. Then Yugi opened the refrigerator and pulled out the milk and butter.
'What're you doing?'
Yugi looked at Yami.
:I'm trying to make breakfast but, there aren't any pecans in the kitchen, can you run and get some:
Yami smiled at Yugi. Yugi smiled back at Yami. Yami nodded.
'Sure, anything else you need?'
:Bacon and sausage if you don't mind.:
'No problem. I'll be right back, Yugi.'
:Thanks, Yami.:
A FEW MINUTES LATER
Yami got back from the store and soon Yugi made pecan pancakes, bacon and sausage. And Yugi put the maple syrup on the table.
:Do you want some, Yami:
'Sure.'
Yugi put some pancake, sausage and bacon on a plate for Yami.
:Coffee:
'Yes, please.'
:You still like it black, right:
'Yeah.'
:OK.:
Then Yugi poured a cup of coffee and gave it and the plate to Yami. Yami tried his first bite of Yugi's pancake.
'This is great, bro.'
Yugi looked and Yami frowning sadly.
:Grandpa taught me how to cook these. Through Téa and I also had several kinds of tutors at our mansion in London. Then when we got to college level Téa was taught by the worlds top dancer and I had already learned everything about running the company so, I got to do whatever major I wanted. So, Ironically I chose Egyptology.:
'Really?'
:Yeah.:
'That's really cool.'
:I know.:
Nabila ran into the kitchen and hugged Yugi. Nabila looks up at Yugi and smiles.
"Mourning, daddy." Nabila said.
Yugi hugged Nabila back.
"Mourning, Nabila." Yugi said.
"Mourning, uncle Yami." Nabila said smiling at Yami.
"Mourning, Nabila." Yami said smiling back at Nabila.
'Hey, bro. What do you say to a duel?'
:I'd love to. But, I can't.:
'Why, not? Outta practice?'
:That and I left my duel disk in London.:
'I see.'
:I can send for it. But, won't be here for a few days.:
'OK, we'll hold off our duel.'
Yugi put Nabila breakfast on the table and she sat down and started eating. Yugi chuckled
:Kids.:
'Yeah, I still can't believe you and Téa got married and have a kid.'
:I know.:
'It takes a little getting use to.'
:I know.:
'I'm glad I have the opportunity to get to know her.'
:Yeah, I know.:
'She reminds me so much of mother.'
:I know.:
'It's strange.'
:I just thought of something.:
'What is it, brother?'
:Maybe just maybe Nabila is mother reincarnation.:
'How?'
:I only imprisoned her darkside within the Horus Shadow Pendant, and her lightside remained and crossed over. It's been 5,000 years. But, Nabila could've been mother.:
Yami smiled at Yugi and Yugi smiled back at Yami.
'I never thought of that.'
:I didn't either until now.:
'I wonder if you're right and Nabila is mother.'
:I don't know.:
'We'll find out.'
:Yeah, we will, someday.:
'Yeah, someday.'
:Listen, Yami. I'm sorry about the trouble I caused earlier.:
'It's OK, Yugi.'
Yugi smiled.
:I speak quite a few languages now.:
'Really?'
:Yeah.:
Yami smiled at Yugi. Yugi smiled back at Yami.
'Like what?'
:Like Latin, ancient Arabic, ancient Egyptian, modern Arabic, Spanish, France and Japanese.:
'Cool.'
:Yeah, I know.:
Yugi sighed guiltily.
"What's wrong, daddy?" Nabila asked.
"It's nothing, sweetie." Yugi lied.
'Yugi, what is it?'
:You mean you don't remember how our father died, Yami:
'No, I don't.'
:I killed him.:
'What? How? What happened, Yugi!'
:It all started when we were 14. This was back when you and I were still going by Atemi and Atemu.:
5,000 YEARS AGO
Atemi was hanging out with Jono and Treanna.
"Atemi, what is it?" Jono asked.
"There is something you should know." Atemi said.
"What is it?" Jono asked.
Then suddenly a dark figure appeared and tried to grab Atemi.
"Why is he after you, Atemi?" Jono asked.
"To get to Pharaoh Reiken." The dark figure said coldly.
"Why use Atemi?" Jono asked.
"Because, he is one of the princes." The dark figure said.
"What?" Jono asked.
Then the dark figure grabbed a hold of Atemi's arm. The figure started dragging Atemi away. Atemi fought back against the figure.
"If you keep fighting me, I will kill your friends." The dark figure said.
Atemi gasped and stopped fighting.
"Treanna, tell Atemu about what has happened!" Atemi exclaimed.
Then Atemi and the dark figure disappeared in a flash. Then Treanna turned and ran to the palace. Then the dark figure threw Atemi in a dungeon cell and locked it.
"Who are you and what do you have against my father!" Atemi demanded.
Then Hisham removed his hood.
"Who are you?" Atemi asked in confusion.
"I am your uncle." Hisham said.
"What?" Atemi asked.
"You heard me." Hisham said coldly.
"Impossible." Atemi said.
"It is true. I am Reiken's brother." Hisham said coldly.
"What are you going to do with me!" Atemi demanded.
"Torture you. Oh and I would not bother to try and escape, it will only cause you extreme pain." Hisham said coldly.
Then two guards walked up and Hisham unlocked Atemi's cell, the two guards grabbed Atemi and dragged Atemi out of the cell and in front of Hisham.
"Take him to the torture, chambers." Hisham ordered.
Then the two guards started dragging Atemi down the corridor and Atemi fought back. Then the two dragged Atemi into the torture chamber and chained his wrists and ankles down to the altar.
MEANWHILE AT THE PALACE
Atemu was standing on the balcony of his study over looking the garden, and he suddenly heard a voice shouting at a guard below, he looked to see who it was.
"YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND! IT IS AN EMERGENCY! I MUST SEE PRINCE ATEMU OR PHARAOH REIKEN!" Treanna shouted in panic.
"IT IS ALRIGHT, SHOW TO MY STUDY!" Atemu shouted.
Then the guard looked up to see Prince Atemu and bowed. The guard quickly showed Treanna to Atemu's study.
"What is it, Treanna? Where is, Atemi? He is normally with you, when you come to the palace." Atemu said.
"That is just it, Atemu." Treanna said.
"What is wrong!" Atemu demanded.
"Atemi has been kidnapped." Treanna said sadly.
"What?" Atemu asked.
"It is true." Treanna said sadly.
"Come on." Atemu said.
Then Atemu grabbed Treanna's wrist and pulled her into the throne room where Pharaoh Reiken was in a meeting with his advisors.
"Sorry to interrupt, father. But, there is something you must hear." Atemu said.
"What is it?" Reiken asked standing up.
"Atemi has been kidnapped." Atemu said sadly.
Reiken's eyes widen in fear.
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMI
Hisham walked over to the altar and smirked evilly at Atemi. Then Hisham created a blue sphere. Hisham's smirk widened, and he slammed the sphere into Atemi's stomach, then Atemi screamed out in pain.
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMU
Atemu gasped and clutched his stomach, and his eyes widen with fear realizing the pain he was feeling was coming to him through his mindlink with Atemi. Atemu quickly realized whoever kidnapped Atemi was torturing him.
"Atemu, are you alright?" Reiken asked with concern.
"It is Atemi, he..."
"What about your brother!" Reiken demanded cutting Atemu off.
"He is being tortured." Atemu said sadly.
"Oh, no." Reiken said with concern.
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMI
Then Hisham put his hand over Atemi's face, a blinding light emitted from it, the light caused great pain to Atemi. Then Atemi passed out.
"Take him to his cell." Hisham said coldly.
Then the two guards unlocked the shackles on Atemi's wrists and ankles and dragged him back to his cell and roughly threw him in causing him to slam into the wall on his side. Then Atemi fell to the ground.
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMU
Atemu heaved a sigh of relieve.
"They have stopped for now." Atemu said.
"Good." Reiken said.
"We have to find them before they put him through that again." Atemu said.
"I agree, Atemu. GUARDS!" Reiken shouted.
Then the head of the guards ((Duke's past life 5,000 years ago.)) ran into the throne room.
"You called, sire?" Otogi asked.
"Search all of Egypt, and find whoever kidnapped Atemi and bring them to me if possible." Reiken ordered.
Otogi bowed.
"Yes, sire." Otogi said.
Then Otogi left the throne room.
'Hang on, Atemi. We'll find you.'
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMI
Atemi groaned coming to.
:Atemu:
'Atemi?'
:Yes. Something is wrong.:
'What is it?'
:I can not see.:
'What! It can not be!'
:It is.:
'Do you know the name of the man whose kidnapped you?'
:It is Hisham, he is father's brother.:
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMU
"Father, I know whose kidnapped Atemi." Atemu said.
"Who is it!" Reiken demanded.
"Your brother, Hisham." Atemu said.
Reiken balled his fists in anger.
"Father, there is something else." Atemu said.
"What is it?" Reiken asked.
"Atemi is blind, because of that last torture session." Atemu said sadly.
"I see." Reiken said.
3 MONTHS LATER AT THE PALACE
Yahiya came to the throne room, he had returned from a 3-month trip to Greece and didn't know about the kidnapping. When Yahiya walked in he found Reiken pacing the throne room.
"Hello, uncle." Yahiya said.
"Yahiya?" Reiken asked.
Yahiya frowned noticing the extreme worry on his uncle's face.
"What happened?" Yahiya asked with deep concern.
Reiken sighed and slumped into his throne in exhaustion.
"Your father he..."
"What has he done now, Reiken!" Yahiya demanded cutting off Reiken.
"He has kidnapped, Atemi." Reiken said.
"What!" Yahiya demanded.
"And worst of all, Hisham is torturing Atemi and not only is he harming Atemi. But, Atemu is also being effected due to their mindlink." Reiken said sadly.
"May I see Atemu?" Yahiya asked.
"Of course." Reiken said.
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMI
Atemi's soul was close to breaking.
:Atemu, I do not think my soul can survive another of Hisham torture sessions.:
'Stay strong, brother.'
:I can not. Oh no they are coming.:
Then the two guards and Hisham arrived at Atemi's cell door. Hisham unlocked it. The two guards pulled Atemi to his feet.
"Take him to the torture chambers." Hisham said.
:No, not again.:
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMU
Yahiya walked into Atemu's chambers.
"Cousin?" Yahiya asked with concern.
"Yahiya?" Atemu asked.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Yahiya asked with concern.
"They are taking him in for another torture session." Atemu said sadly.
"There is something else is there not?" Yahiya asked.
"Atemi thinks his soul will break during this session." Atemu said sadly.
"Excuse me." Yahiya said.
Then Yahiya turned and ran out of Atemu's chambers and into the throne room. Reiken looked up to see his nephew.
"What is it now, Yahiya?" Reiken asked.
Yahiya gave him a look of half pity and half guilty. Now thoroughly annoyed Reiken stands up and glares at his nephew.
"Uncle, Atemi's soul is about to break." Yahiya said sadly.
Then suddenly Atemu screamed and it echoed throughout the palace.
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMI
Atemi screamed from the blue sphere Hisham had slammed into him. Then Atemi pulsed and Hisham smirked. Then Atemi's pulses became more frequent and soon there was one huge pulse and he stopped fighting.
"Take the shackles off him." Hisham said.
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMU
Atemu gasped and shot out of bed and a pair of strong hands pushed him back in bed. Atemu looked to see who it was and saw it was his father.
"Father?" Atemu asked weakly.
"Easy, Atemu." Reiken said.
"Our mindlink, it is gone. It has never left us." Atemu said sadly.
"Do not worry, just rest." Reiken said.
Then Reiken stood and walked out of Atemu's chambers and into the throne room. Suddenly there was a bright flash in the throne room and Hisham appeared with a short dark hooded figure beside him.
"You know what to do." Hisham said.
The dark figure nodded and walked out of the throne room and to Atemu's chambers and TKed the guards outside the door, through the door and knocking one of them out.
"PRINCE ATEMU!" Otogi shouted.
Reiken gasped and started to run through the throne room door.
"GO AHEAD, BUT, YOU CAN NOT SAVE ATEMU WITHOUT KILLING ATEMI!" Hisham shouted.
"What?" Reiken asked in disbelieve and freezing in his tracks.
"I tortured him until his soul broke then I put his body under a shadow spell." Hisham said.
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMI AND ATEMU
The dark figure charged towards the bed at an amazing speed and grabbed the weakened Atemu by the throat and slammed him into the wall. Atemu struggled to loosen the dark figure's grip and during the struggle the dark figure's cloak came off the guards gasped in shock.
MEANWHILE WITH REIKEN AND HISHAM
Yahiya walked into the throne room.
"I know what shadow spell you used, father." Yahiya said.
Then Yahiya raised his hand and fired a power shadow attack at his father. Then his father screamed in pain and died and his body disappeared.
MEANWHILE WITH ATEMI AND ATEMU
Atemi's release his grip and Atemu fell to his knees coughing and Atemi collapsed to the ground unmoving.
"Sire!" Otogi exclaimed.
"I am fine. What of Atemi?" Atemu asked.
Otogi checked him over and saw he was still breathing.
"He still lives, majesty." Otogi said.
"Good." Atemu said as Reiken and Yahiya ran in.
"Hisham spoke the truth." Reiken said and then Reiken ran to Atemi's side, and Yahiya ran over to Atemu's.
"YOU MUST REVEARE THE DAMAGE TO ATEMI'S SOUL QUICKLY, REIKEN!" Yahiya shouted.
Atemu's eyes widen with fear.
'ATEMI!'
Atemi didn't react. Reiken's aura began to glow a bright blue. Then Reiken placed a hand on Atemi's forehead. Then Reiken's aura entered Atemi.
'Please, let this work, Ra.' Reiken thought.
A FEW MINUTES LATER
'It should have worked by now.' Atemu thought to himself.
Then Atemi groaned starting to come to. Atemi slowly opened his eyes.
"Atemi, son are you alright?" Reiken asked weakly.
Atemi sat up and looked at his father. Then Atemi nodded.
"Thank goodness." Reiken gasped weakly as he passed out.
"FATHER!" Atemi shouted.
Then Atemi started shaking his father, trying to wake him up. Atemu rushed over to Reiken's side. Reiken groaned, but remained unconscious.
"Otogi, sent for Isis, NOW!" Atemu shouted.
"Hang on, father." Atemi pled taking his father's hand.
'Brother, are you alright?'
:Of course I am! Why wouldn't I be:
'You don't remember, what Hisham did?'
:Now I do. Why is father so weak:
'He used his aura to repair the damage done to your soul.'
:What do mean:
'Your soul broke, brother.'
:I hope father will alright.:
'I am sure he will be.'
Then the Atemu's chamber doors open and Isis walked in and ran over to Reiken. Then Isis had two of the royal healer take Reiken to his chamber. The two men picked up Reiken and carefully carried him out of Atemu's chambers and to his own. Then Isis turned to face the two princes frowning.
"What is wrong?" Atemu asked with deep concern.
"I suggest you begin to make funeral arrangements, for the Pharaoh. Because there is nothing I can do to save him." Isis said.
"I see." Atemu said.
Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi disappeared in a flash and reappeared at the Duel Grounds.
"Hey, Atemi." Jono said.
Atemi frowned sadly.
"Hey, Jono." Atemi said.
"What is wrong?" Jono asked with concern.
"The man who kidnapped me, was my uncle. He tortured me and my soul broke. My father fixed it. But, now my father is dying because of me. I just have some thinking to do." Atemi said.
Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi disappeared and reappeared at the Garden Palace next to Atemu.
'Isis has to be wrong, father will survive this. He is a strong man.'
:I hope you are right.:
'I know I am.'
Atemi sighed.
:I am sorry, Atemu.:
'Atemi?'
Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Atemi disappeared.
BACK TO THE PRESENT
:I was gone for 3 years.:

Prince Yugi came to Egypt wareing a dark cloak. Prince Yugi broke the law and Prince Yugi was arrested, the police brought Prince Yugi still wareing the hood of his cloak up before Pharaoh Yami, Prince Yugi stared at the floor.
"Pharaoh Yami, we are unsure how to punish this man." The chef of police said.
"Why does he ware a hood?" Pharaoh Yami asked.
"He refuse to take it off, sire." The chef of police said.
"Take off your hood." Pharaoh Yami commanded.
Prince Yugi didn't respond.
"THE PHARAOH HAS COMMANDED YOU TO REMOVE YOUR HOOD!" The chef of police shouted.
"Why should I? He is not the real Pharaoh. Atemu is." Prince Yugi said.
Pharaoh Yami narrowed his eyes in anger at Prince Yugi.
"HOW DARE YOU!" Pharaoh Yami shouted in anger.
"It is illegal to use that name." The chef of police said pulling off Prince Yugi's hood.
Pharaoh Yami gasped.
"Atemi?" Pharaoh Yami asked.
Prince Yugi looked up, and his eyes widen in shock.
"Brother?" Prince Yugi asked.
"RELEASE HIM!" Pharaoh Yami shouted.
The chef of police unlocked the shackles on Prince Yugi's wrists. Then Pharaoh Yami ran forward and embraced Prince Yugi.
"I was worried sick about you. Where have you been?" Pharaoh Yami asked.
"Greece." Prince Yugi said.
"I am glad you came back." Pharaoh Yami said.
"So am I." Prince Yugi said.

Then Joey walked in and smiled.
"Are ya fellin' better, Yug?" Joey asked.
"Yep." Yugi said.
"Yug, ya can talked again?" Joey asked in confusion.
Yugi nodded.
"Yep." Yugi said.
"Dis is great." Joey said happily.
"I know." Yugi said.
"Yugi and I were just talking about the Garden Palace." Yami said.
"Really?" Joey asked.
Then the Horus Shadow Staff flashed and Jono took over for Joey.
"What exactly were you two talking about?" Jono asked.
"It started out at when Hisham kidnapped me, and how my soul broke 3 months later. Then we went into how I was gone for 3 years." Yugi said.
"I see." Jono said.
"Yep." Yugi said.
'Yugi, there's something your not telling me.'
:A year ago I was on a dig in Egypt. I had brought, Omar.:
'Who's Omar?'
:Nabila's twin brother.:
'What happened on the dig?'
:I had told him not to go in the tunnel alone. But, he wanderd off, he walked into the tunnel. Then there was a cave in. I heard him scream, and then I didn't hear another sound from him. The tunnel completely collapsed there was appositely no way we could dig it out. Yami, Omar's dead.:
'I see. I'm sorry I made you relive that.'
:It's alright Yami.:
Then suddenly the phone rang and Yugi answered it.
"Hello, Kame Game Shop." Yugi said.
"Yugi Motou, this is Ishizu Ishtar." She said.
"Oh, hello, Ishizu." Yugi said.
"A year ago I found a child in Egypt who greatly resembles you." Ishizu said.
"I see." Yugi said.
"His memory was gone, but, now they've returned." Ishizu said.
Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Yugi disappeared and reappeared behind Ishizu.
"May I see the child?" Yugi asked as she hung up the phone.
"Omar!" Ishizu shouted.
Then there was a flash next to Ishizu and a boy who looked exactly like Yugi except the buy's eye were blue like Téa's.
"Omar!" Yugi gasped in shock.
Omar looked at him and smiled. Then Omar ran to Yugi and hugged him. Yugi embraced his son.
:Thank Ra.:
'Yugi, what's going on?'
:Omar's alive.:
Yami sighed.
MEANWHILE AT THE KAME GAME SHOP
Nabila and Jono walked over to Yami.
"Uncle Yami, where'd daddy go?" Nabila asked.
Yami smiled at her.
"Nabila, it...Omar's alive and daddy went to get him." Yami said happily.
"My brother...he...he's..."
Then Nabila's voice cut out and she started crying. Yami hugged his niece.
"Who's Omar?" Jono asked in confusion.
"It's Omar Motou. He's Nabila's twin brother." Yami said.
"Really?" Jono asked.
"Yes." Yami said.
"Good." Jono said.
I glad.
Me too.
Then the Horus Shadow Puzzle flashed and Yugi and Omar disappeared and reappear in the kitchen of the Kame Game Shop. Yugi and Yami stepped back from the children
"OMAR!" Nabila exclaimed.
Yugi smiled watching as Omar and his sister embraced.
It's good to see them together again.
I bet.
'I should call Téa down.' Yugi thought to Yami.
'Probably.' Yami thought to Yugi.
"Téa!" Yugi shouted.
Téa ran downstairs and smiled at Yugi. Yugi was blocking her view of Nabila, and Omar. Yugi stepped aside.
"Téa, Omar's back." Yugi said happily.
"Omar?" Téa gasped in shock.
Omar looked at Téa and smiled.
"Hi, mom." Omar said.
Téa ran to Omar and embraced him.
"What's going on, dad?" Omar asked.
Yugi sighed.
"Omar, we thought you died a year ago." Yugi said sadly.
Omar frowned.
"I see." Omar said sadly.
"Your sister was devastated." Yugi said sadly.
"Really?" Omar asked.
"Yes, I haven't seen her this happy in a year." Yugi said.
'It's gonna be fine, Yugi.' Yami thought to Yugi.
'I know.' Yugi thought to Yami.
'Good.' Yami thought to Yugi.
'The thing I'm worried about is how this will effect the twins.' Yugi thought to Yami.
