Chapter 21 b fight for the light continued
Like the title says this isn't really a new chapter just a continuation of the last one, and I reshuffled my decks so that I really have no idea what card's are next.
Well, here we go again.
I looked at the card I had just drawn. It wasn't the piece of Exodia but it would defend my life points
"I play battle ox (1700/1000) in attack mode and attack you cannon soldier," I yelled across the field.
The battle ox charged across the field it swung at the cannon solider. The cannon soldier disappeared. (600/1200)
My light drew her next card. "I'll play 7 colored fish in attack mode and destroy your battle ox." She destroyed my battle ox and I took the difference (500/1200)
I drew my next card. Was it possible had I really done it? I looked at the card carefully. I had I had pulled out Exodia.
"Marik I'll use my change of heart but I won't use it on your fish. I use it on you. I'll trade your soul with the empty soul on the field. And now I summon Exodia" I yelled as I laid the pieces of Exodia out before me. – Think of how Yami defeated Bakura on the duelist kingdom.-
"How, how could you assemble Exodia," He screamed as the creature appeared before him.
"Now Exodia, Obliterate Marik." I yelled.
A blast of light zoomed across the field hitting Marik's Yami and sending him to the graveyard the shadow realm disappeared, and we were back in the castles tower.
. Heila stood in front of me. Marik stood behind her. I fell to my knees. That battle had taken more than I thought. I heard the door open behind me and footsteps run towards me. A hand was placed on my shoulder. I looked up. It was Yami. He had taken over Yugi to comfort me. I collapsed into his arms exhausted.
I woke up a few hours later. Yami was sleeping in a chair next to me. Heila was lying beside me in the bed. Everyone else was nowhere to be seen, but they weren't far.
Yami stirred in the chair. He smiled as he looked over at me. I smiled weakly at him.
"How do you fell?" Yami asked as he walked over and sat on the bed.
"Not to bad. A little weak." I replied. "Yami before to long, I'll have to go back into Heila. Before I do, I should tell you something."
Yami stared at me for a minute. "What?"
I paused for a moment. Was I ready to tell him? Did I really want to admit the secret I'd had for years? I probably should. If I don't he'd find out eventually right?
"She's not really MY light." I began I didn't look at him I didn't want to see his face as I told him. "I'm not even her Yami. I'm more like a mediator. When I came to her, her real Yami tormented her. I defended her. She was so weak. Her Yami had beaten her and starved her. I sealed her Yami away in the soul room. I took over for her until she was ready. I protected her like a mother would protect a child, or well, like you protect Yugi."
I glanced at Yami. He had looked away. He looked shocked. How it was possible for three different souls to live in one vessel seemed unreal.
"You're not the first to find out. Pegasus knew when he captured me. When he sealed Heila away, he had hoped that her Yami would come out and defeat me giving him a warrior to defeat you. Instead, I kept control of the body. This infuriated him and he locked me away in that cursed room. I couldn't even access the shadow realm."
"But how did you get to her. Obviously, there had to be a millennium item. Right?" Yami asked breaking in.
I paused and grew quiet. How had I gotten in to her in the first place? Why couldn't I remember? We remained silent for a while. I listened to Heila as she slept softly beside me. Yami sighed and got up.
"Yami," I started "if there was a millennium item it wouldn't be part of the original ones. You know the ones that you and Bakura have."
He stood by a window that looked out towards the ocean. He seemed lost and confused. In some ways, I was scared too. Why couldn't I remember something as important as how I got to Heila in the first place?
"Yami?" I asked looking over at him.
He just stood there. A look of hurt looked like it had crossed his face. I looked down a Heila one last time before I stood up and walked out the door. I walked down a long hallway until I was standing in the courtyard. I looked up and gazed at the sunset. It was time to give back her body. As I turned and prepared to return to her, a ray of light surrounded me.
"Eagle…Eagle…" the voice was masculine much like Ra
I turned and looked behind me. It was Ra. He was kneeling with his hand stretched out on the ground. I hadn't realized tears had formed until I ran towards his hand and found myself shaking uncontrollably.
"It's okay little Eagle… I'm here now…you can return home soon…"
"I…I…I don't want to." I cried wiping franticly at the tears as they began to fall.
Ra was silent as he lifted me up and raised a finger up to my face. He wiped at the fresh tears then lifted my chin so I was looking at him.
"Then I will have to find you a body…"
I sniffled as more tears found their way out.
"Is that what you really want?" he asked
I nodded.
"Then I will give you a body, but I won't give it to you here… When you have returned that body to the girl and return here, understand?"
"Yes, thank you."
Ra lowered his hand and smiled as I got off and returned to Yami and Heila.
Okay that's the end of this chapter, but what's still in store for the gang, and how did Eagle get into Heila in the first place. Stay tuned to find out.
Next time on Memory of a pharaoh
Chapter 22-Eagle gives Heila her body back then disappears. Yami, still trying to find out about his past takes the gang to Egypt were they learn more secrets and even more about Eagle.
