Disclaimer: I own nothing but the story. Thank you.

The violet shadows tossed about, moving as if though on the wings of winds. Anubis stared hard into the group's eyes, chuckling evilly. Kairi held her cutlass, her red eyes glowing with rage and hatred. The Millennium Case glowed brightly amongst the shadows of the Shadow Realm. Somewhere, Kairi thought that she heard Brian, calling out to them faintly.

"Alright, Anubis," she muttered, raising her cutlass. "How did you send Brian to the Shadow Realm?" Anubis lifted up the Pyramid of Light, and grinned.

"I used this, foolish mortal," the villain laughed, the red sphere glowing. "I first controlled him to steal the Millennium Case, as well as the other Items. Then, while he was weak with exhaustion, I sent him to the Shadow Realm, and took control of his body." Yami was shocked, as was Inuyasha.

"Why did you do it?" Yami roared, shaking his fist. "And how did you come back after I defeated you?" Anubis laughed again, although it sounded colder.

"How did I come back, you ask?" he chuckled. "It's just that simple, isn't it? I had Brian bring me back. I promised him wealth and power beyond his wildest dreams. He refused at first, but then I controlled him."

"That's why we didn't see him for two days," Kairi remembered, racing up to Anubis and slashing at him. "This is for Brian! When we defeat you, we'll get him back after the shadows disappear." Inuyasha and Yami followed her lead, while Yugi and Joey summoned monsters from their decks to attack the lord of the dead.

"This is for all that you've done to Egypt, Anubis!" Yami cried, slashing at Anubis' chest. The Millennium Case fell from his hand, and landed on the ground. This gave Kairi the chance to grab it before Anubis did. She tucked it away into her jacket. She then pulled out a white flute from her pocket. Placing her sword into the sheath, she played a small tune on the flute. A bright light began headed their way, brighter than a star itself. A pegasus appeared in front of both Kairi and Anubis.

"It can't be!" Anubis cried, staring at the winged horse. "The legendary pegasus, Elna!" He backed away as Kairi leapt onto the horse's back, clutching her cutlass.

"This ends now, Anubis," she hissed, the horse taking to the air. Then, they dove down, straight at the villain. Raising the cutlass, she struck straight at the Pyramid of Light, and it shattered into a million pieces.

"No!" Anubis cried, beginning to fade from the bright light. Kairi landed beside her horse, and grinned, placing her cutlass back into the sheath. Her black/red hair flowed in the wind around them, and her friend, Elna, faded along with Anubis. The violet shadows faded as well, and a figure was spotted, lying on the ground in front of them. It was a man with brown hair and blue-green eyes.

"Brian!" Yami cried, racing over to his guardian. "He's still breathing. We have to get him back to Domino, now!" Parou's eyes glowed, and they teleported to the Kame Turtle Game Shop, which was now restored. Yami walked inside, and placed Brian onto the couch.

"He needs rest now," Inuyasha whispered, walking off, the group following the half demon. "He should be fine after a few hours." Kairi nodded sadly, and looked back at the Kame Turtle Game Shop. This was her home now, as it was her father's home. She now had a full family.

Will Brian be okay? What about that pegasus, Elna? Where did it come from? Find out in chapter ten, Memories Fade.

Review, please.
