Disclaimer- yup i still don't own it. Never will. Get used to it
Chapter 25
Yugi looked around the museum while they waited on Isis. The room he had wondered into was covered in artifacts he could only assume were from a pharaoh's tomb.
'Yami, is any of this familiar?' he asked looking over at the spirit beside him
'Some of it is from pharaoh's who died long before me.' Yami stated as he walked over towards a giant stone tablet, 'that one has a picture that looks like me.'
Yugi looked at the tablet. Sure enough, there was a picture of him and a dark magician locked in battle with another person. The other person had a dragon pictured next to him.
'You don't suppose that's Seto, do you?' Yugi asked looking at the way to similar pictures.
'I don't know.' Yami replied staring at the tablet.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." A voice remarked from the doorway on the opposite side of the room.
Yugi looked over to see a tall woman standing there. She wore a light tan dress with gold accents. Her hair was black and reached her waist.
"You must be Yugi." She stated walking over towards him. "I see you've found the tablet." She continued indicating the one he was just looking at.
"Why am I on the tablet?" Yugi asked noticing that Yami had retreated into the puzzle.
"This picture is of a great pharaoh from three millennia ago. He was in a great battle with a priest who controlled a fierce blue eyed dragon."
"Did he win?"
"I only assume he did. None of the scriptures say who won or even the pharaoh's name." she continued
"What are those up there?" Yugi asked indicating the three monsters at the top.
"Those are the Egyptian gods, Osiris, Ra, and Obelisk." She responded.
"The Egyptian gods, they look like they're in a card form."
"They are. Pegasus went to great lengths to even bring the Egyptian god cards into existence."
"Where are the cards?"
"I have one. My brother has another and the last one was hidden away."
Seto walked into the room and glared at them.
"There are no cards that powerful." He stated as he strode over towards them
"Quite the contrary Mr. Kaiba, These cards are real, as is their power." The woman replied
"Sister!" Marik yelled as he ran into the room.
"Marik!" The woman replied meeting Marik halfway.
"She's here. We must leave." Marik shouted as a blast resonated through the rooms.
"Quickly, this way." The woman replied herding them into a secret passage. As the door closed on the passage the room, they were in filled with smoke.
Earlier in a far off location
"This card is useless." Andromeda screamed again trying to get the card to do something.
"Of course it's useless. Only I can use it." Eagle replied from the floor. Several cuts covered her face and a few strings of blood rolled down her cheeks.
"Then make it work." Andromeda yelled tossing the card at Eagle.
"I can't make it work with out the coin, and I don't have it." Eagle replied then was rewarded with a swift kick.
"Where is it then?" Andromeda demanded standing over the smaller girl.
"How should I know?" another kick landed her on her back and coughing.
"What did you do with it?" she was getting frustrated
She waited for Eagle to respond. When no answer came, she picked her up by her hair. Eagle squirmed as she was raised up. Andromeda flung her across the room by her hair, slamming her into a stonewall.
"Take her away." Andromeda replied turning from Eagle and leaving the room. Yami Heila lifted Eagle out of the room and into a room filled with candles.
"Why don't you just tell her?"Yami Heila asked after they entered the room.
"I…I can't." Eagle replied coughing up a little blood.
Yami Heila helped Eagle lay down on the floor. Even in the dim light the cuts and bruises were very clear. a light surrounded Yami Heila as little Heila took over. Heila got up and left to go get some water. Eagle laid there hoping that she had done the right thing. Heila came back with the water and a washcloth. She dipped the cloth in the water and began cleaning Eagle's cuts.
"What is that card for?"
"It's to locate the temple that will reawaken the Egyptian Gods and reawaken all of Yami's memories" Eagle replies
"How does it work?" Heila asks as she touches one of the cuts with the cloth. Eagle flinches
"There is a coin that will unlock the cards powers. Without the coin the card is useless."
"But with them both you can find the location?"
Eagle shakes her head slightly "no, there is still one other thing needed to activate them both."
"What is it?"
"Someone that is a discophile of Ra. Someone sent to protect…" Eagle begins coughing again.
"Sent to protect what?" Heila asks
"To protect…" Eagle looks over at Heila, "you."
Heila looks at Eagle in surprise. She remembered some of the events before now but she really didn't remember how it had all started. She opened her mouth ready to ask another question when Andromeda's voice resonated through the corridors.
"Yami Heila!"
The light surrounded Heila again as they changed places again. Yami Heila had been listening to the conversation. It couldn't be true. If what Eagle had said was true then she could activate the power of the card. Yami Heila stood up and walked away leaving Eagle there. She would ask more after she saw what Andromeda wanted.
back at the museum
"Sister, we should leave. Odion is making sure that the others get out okay. I told him to meet up with us at the Valley of the Kings." Marik stated as he listened to the commotion outside the door.
"Alright, let's go." She responded starting through the tunnel.
"If you don't mind, what is your name?" Yugi asked
"My name is Isis." She replied turning a corner. As they turned the corner, there was a blast and a cloud of dust behind them. "We must hurry." Isis began to run down the hallway.
"Sister I'll hold her back. Get the pharaoh to safety." Marik shouted towards the small group.
"Brother, no, we must stay together." Isis replied turning to grab him.
As she reached for him, a dark mist began to fill the hall. It engulfed them, and then passed over them leaving them in a purplish haze.
"We must stick together." Isis remarked lowering her arm in defeat. "I don't suggest we get separated."
"Where are we?" Seto asked glaring up ahead of them.
"This is the shadow realm." Yugi replied remembering it from their trip back from the past.
"We must go." Isis replied looking back at where her brother had just been. 'Be careful Marik.' She thought as she turned and hurried them through the hall.
back with Marik
"What do you want?" Marik shouted at the figure standing in the settling dust.
"The pharaoh would have been nice, cousin."
"Heila?" Marik asked trying to make out the figure.
"Yes it's me." She replied as she prepared her duel disk.
"I don't want to duel you." Marik replied watching her draw her hand.
"Then stand there as my target." She summoned an Amazon Archer in attack mode. It rushed down the hall and hit Marik.
"Heila, Please." Marik replied pulling out his duel disk and summoning a monster in defense to protect him.
"Where is the pharaoh?" Yami Heila asked as she summoned a berserk gorilla to the field.
"I don't know." Marik replied
"Then I'll make you remember!" Yami Heila yelled, sending her monster across the field and attacks his face down monster.
Come back soon when we find out what happens to Marik and if Yugi and the gang save Heila and Eagle from Andromeda. Until then read and review, And I hope I'll have a new chapter up again soon.
