Okay let me clarify a few things before I continue on.
The following list shows who has each of the millennium items (if the item
is in (_) then the holder isn't using it).
Yugi: puzzle, (tauk)
Ryou: ring, (eye)
Malik: rod
Shadi: ankh, scales

Lastly I am working haven seen only the dubbed version of Yu-Gi-Oh, so just
bear with me okay.

Destinies Entwine
Yugi Motou was sweeping in the back room of his grandfather's game shop when he heard a knock on the front door.
Yugi, /I wonder who that could be\, looks at a clock hanging on a wall, /It's too early; the shop's not open yet. I'm not expecting anyone, what do you think Yami\, looking at the ghost like figure next to him.
Yami, /How about you go check abou\?
Yugi, with a minor sweat drop, /Oh, okay\.
Of course by the time Yugi got to the door his grandfather had already opened it and was conversing with two strangers, who were apparently American. Two women, both wearing military uniforms, one was a brunette and was obviously a translator for the other one; a rather beautiful blond with short hair.
Sugorako, "Ah ladies, here's my grandson, now. Yugi we were just talking about you".
Translator, in English, "Is that him major"?
Sam, who was smiling at Yugi, "Yes lieutenant, that's him."
Yugi, who didn't understand a word of that brief conversation, "Um, grandpa, what's going on here".
Sugorako, "These ladies are from the American military, and apparently, they want to have a word with you. I certainly hope you haven't done anything wrong Yugi".
Yugi chose not to answer his grandfather's sarcastic remark, and was instead conversing with Yami. /Yugi, I want you to switch with me\, /Why, Yami\, /I don't know, but I certainly would feel better if you let me have control, for awhile\, /Okay Yami, if it will help calm you\. The millennium puzzle glowed briefly and the confident Yami replaced the innocent Yugi. This change was unnoticed by everyone in the room, except for Carter who did notice something, but couldn't figure out what it was.
Yami, who looked Major Carter square in the eye and asked, "Well, what do you want"?
Carter, who was more than a little surprised by the youths change in attitude, "We noticed a rather odd energy emission coming from this area and we were wondering if you could come with us to discuss it".
Needless to say that Yami was shocked at both the abruptness of this woman and the fact that she had knowledge of the millennium items.
Yami, "Do you know what caused it"?
Sam, "Well frankly, no, but you seem to be at every place we have detected it, so we would like you to come with us".
Yugi, /Well what do you think Yami\, /Well abou, I think we should go with them. If for no other reason than to find out what they know\.
Yami, "Alright I'll go, just give me some time to pack."
Sam, "Great, we'll just be waiting for you here". While Yugi/Yami was packing Sam was contemplating what the odd feeling she got from that youth.
* While all this was going on Jack and Teal'c were standing in front of Ryou Bakura's house, with a dark figure looking out at them from a second story window.
Ryou, /So, why did you want to take over?\, he said from his soul room.
Bakura, grimly, /There are two men outside the house\.
Ryou, /Since when do strangers scare you Bakura\?
/Watch yourself Ryou, I may not be the same person as during Battle City, but you still shouldn't insult me\, said Bakura with a slightly vicious tone.
Ryou, equally as panicked, /No no, I wasn't trying to say you were a coward, I just.\.
Bakura, smirking and slightly amused, /I know what you meant. And I'm not afraid just being. cautious. Both of them are part of the American military\. Ryou was about to cut into Bakura's monologue, but Bakura prevented this with a nasty look. /It's not just that. That big one next to his commanding officer, he reminds me of a legend that originated about 5000 years before my time\.
Ryou, /What was the legend?\.
Bakura, /I'll tell it to you some other time. Now what to do about these guests?\.
Ryou, /How about we just greet them and find out why they're here?\.
Bakura, slightly amused, /You know Ryou, you actually have a good idea\.
Infront of the house Jack and Teal'c are still unsure on how to proceed.
Jack, "I don't know Teal'c, I mean if we just go up there he could just deny any knowledge of this power source and we'd be back at square." before Jack could finish his sentence he was interrupted by the front door opening, and out from it came the same teenager SG-1 saw on Thor's ship, except a bit more decent.
Bakura, "So, are you just going to stand there all day, or do you want to come inside".
Jack, "Yes, thank-you". As Jack and Teal'c entered, Bakura glared at the imposing Jaffa, which of course, was not missed by the stoic warrior.
Jack, "Nice house you have he."
Bakura, "You can skip the pleasantries, what do you want?"
Jack, taken aback by the white haired youth's abruptness, "Down to business then, we came because my group."
Bakura, "You mean the US air force?"
Jack, "Well yes and no, you see I work for a particular group within the air force that detected a strange energy coming from this area and we were wondering if you knew anything about it.
To say that Bakura was shocked was an understatement; he couldn't believe that anyone in the modern day (with the exception of millennium item holders and their friends, of course) knew anything about the millennium items or the shadow realm, especially not some countries military.
Bakura, "And if I do know something?"
Jack, "Then we'll take you back to our command and we'll discuss this in further detail."
Bakura thought abut this for a few seconds then said, "Give me 10 minutes to pack, then we'll leave."
As Bakura rushed up stairs to pack, O'Neill couldn't suppress a smile.
Teal'c, "What are you smiling about O'Neill?"
Jack, "It's just that this was easier than I thought it would be".
Teal'c, "Do not be so optimistic O'Neill, there was something about that boy, something dark."
Jack, "Do you think he's got a snake?"
Teal'c, "No, not a Goa'uld, it was something deeper, more secretive and at the same time far more massive.
While this conversation was going on Bakura and Ryou were discussing something themselves.
Ryou, /Do you trust them?\
Bakura, bluntly, /Of course not, but I have to find out what they know. I can't allow them to posses too much knowledge of the forces they're dealing with; we both know what could happen if they try to exploit the shadow realm in any way\. This thought drove a shiver down Ryou's spine.
Ryou, who's voice was filled with genuine concern, /What will you do if they start to dig to deep\.
Bakura, /What ever I have to\. This statement only caused the teen to become even more worried. /Ryou I think it would be best if you stay in your soul room for now, at least until I get a better grasp on this situation\.
Ryou, /For once Bakura, I agree with you on this point\.
As both Bakura and Jack and Teal'c left for the airport, both had misgivings about each other, neither were undeserving of it.
* Daniel Jackson at the Egyptian national museum in Cairo. Waiting on an old friend in the back room, which was filled with boxes and forgotten artifacts .
Isis, "Daniel Jackson, why I haven't seen you in what, seven, eight years. It's good to see you again."
Daniel, "Hello, Isis. It's good to see you too." Standing in front of Dr. Jackson was a beautiful, young woman; about 5'5 with jet black hair and brown eyes, which the copper tone of her skin made even more vibrant. She was wearing the sand colored robe she preferred with the usual gold earrings and bracelets, except for one piece of jewelry, that Daniel Jackson had always liked.
Daniel, "I noticed that your tauk is gone, I hope nothing happened to it."
Isis, subconsciously, moved her hand towards her neck where, for years, the millennium tauk had resided. The tauk, which was made of solid gold and bored the eye of Anubis had always fascinated Dr. Jackson. "Yes, I gave it to a dear friend. I felt that he should have had it, and I still do." Daniel dropped the subject after that last sentence.
Isis, "Is there any specific reason you came here, or was it just for old times sake." She didn't wish to bring up Daniel's theories, which ended up laughing him out of academia.
Daniel, "Yes there is another reason, actually. I came to speak to your little brother, Malik; I think that was his name." This caused Isis to go pale. "Is something wrong Isis?"
Isis, regaining her composure, "No nothing's wrong. Well he's in the back room unloading a new shipment, just follow me."
In the back room Malik and Rishid were unloading a new shipment of artifacts from a dig in Giza.
Malik, "Tell me again why we're doing manual labor".
Rishid, "Because you agreed to do this if Isis would let you out of the house."
Malik, "Well now I'm starting to regret it."
Just then the door to the storage rooms opened revealing two people, one was Malik's sister and the other was an American; an academic probably an archeologist by the looks of him.
Malik, "So, are you going to introduce us to your friend or do we have to guess?"
Isis, "Don't be rude Malik. This is my old friend Dr. Daniel Jackson."
Daniel was observing the two men in front of him. One of them was clearly Isis' brother Malik, but the other, silent one, reminded him, at first glance, of Teal'c; he was just as stoic and imposing.
Daniel, "Hello Malik", stretching out his hand to shake Malik's.
Malik, accepting his greeting, "Hello Dr. Jackson, is there a reason you're here."
Daniel, "Yes I am; you see I am currently working with the US government with a project and we feel that you could help us understand something that we discovered.
Isis, feeling more and more panicked, "Why my brother Daniel? I'm sure I'd be more helpful with whatever it is."
Daniel, "Well I understand where you are coming from Isis, but we really feel that it's Malik we need and before you ask I can't tell you why. I'm sorry Isis I just can't. I hope you understand."
Isis, "Well, okay Daniel, but at least let Rishid go to."
Daniel, "I'm sorry Isis but I can't. Malik has to go and only Malik." This, needless to say, caused a lot of questions to arise in Isis' mind, but her trust in Daniel over rode them. As far as Malik's thoughts were on this matter, he just wanted to leave and do something; after all this little trip was the first time he was allowed outside in over a month.
Isis, while looking at Malik, "Alright Daniel, but keep an eye on him; when he loses his temper he can become a little violent."
Daniel, "Don't worry, what ever happens I'm sure we can deal with it."
Malik, excited, "All right I'll go pack". Before Malik could run off Isis grabbed him and pulled him to the side.
Malik, "I know what you're going to say and don't worry I'll be fine."
Isis, "You keep saying that and I still don't believe it, but I trust Daniel, so I'm letting you go, but keep your temper." With this she let go of Malik's arm and he left with Daniel. "I do hope so Malik, I truly do."
At the airport in Cairo.
Malik, "So, Daniel was it, where are we going?"
Daniel, "To the Cheyane Mountain Complex. Oh and before I forget put this on your temple", Handing Malik the translator.
Malik, while looking at the translator in quizzically, "What is it?"
Daniel, "It's a translator, here I'll do it", puts the translator on Malik's temple.
While Daniel was doing this Malik was thinking that if these Americans tracked him down then the Yugi and Ryou would probably be joining him soon.
*
Back at the Domino city airport, on the private strip; two black cars drove up with two special passengers. Both Ryou and Yugi, who was wearing a translator, were followed by there SG-1 escort. When they saw eachother both were astounded.
Yami, with a touch of malice in his voice, /Tomb Robber\.
Bakura, with a lot more malice in his voice, /Pharoah\.
Yami, /What are you doing here?!\.
Bakura, /I imagine the same thing as you\.
Yugi, /Yami, Bakura, keep your cool we don't need to create a scene, right Yami".
Ryou, /Yugi's right Bakura calm down".
Yami, "You're right abou, I guess I can tolerate this, thief".
Bakura, /Well, if the pharaoh can tolerate me I guess I can tolerate him".
Yugi, /Um, Yami, if Ryou's here than in all likely hood they found all of us\.
Yami, /Malik; I guess he'll be joining us too."
SG-1 was watching the reaction of the two youths when they saw each other and were interested in their reactions.
Jack, "Well, they seem to know each other".
Sam, "Kind of makes you wonder how they'll react when they see the one that Daniel went to go get". * Sorry it took so long to update, school and all. I will try to update more frequently in the future.
