"Prince!!!!" yelled Mana joyfully.
Atemu was standing there, dumbfounded as Mana glomped him. Mana, long time friend of Rena, Atem, and Mahado, was cheerful as always. Mahado sighed and grabbed Mana, making her let go of the still very dumbfounded Atem. Even though years have passed since Mana began her Mage's training, she is still the same student she was years ago, due to what Mahado says, "laziness".
"Mana, what are you doing??" asked Mahado.
Mana turned to her teacher and replied joyfully, "Ah!! I just wanted to greet prince-sama, Senpai!!"
"Mana, don't call him 'prince'. He is pharaoh now." Explained Mahado, "He has various responsibilities, so call him prin…" Mahado just realized that he still made the mistake of calling Atem 'prince'. It was natural considering that Atemu just became pharaoh that morning.
Atemu laughed and placed his hand on Rena's shoulder. Then, he whispered something in her ear. "Rena…meet me in my chamber… I want to talk to you about something…"
Rena nodded and smiled at him. She took her leave from her friends, telling them that she still had a few errands to run. They said good-bye to her, and watched her leave to fulfill whatever it is that she had to do.
"Everyone, I must leave now…" said Rena bowing her head, "I have some duties to attend to…"
"Ok then!!!" said Mana, "We'll see you in the morning!!"
Rena bowed her head once more towards Atem. Atem made a hand motion that allowed her to leave. After that, Rena made her way through the palace gardens, and found her way back into her underground living quarters, the Servant's Sanctuary. As one of the Sacred Servants, Rena had to make sure that every servant returned to the sanctuary. All the servants checked in, including the little girl that gave Rena the crown of flowers, Aya. Aya wanted hang around Rena, but Rena told her now wasn't the time.
"Rena-san, I heard you helped fight a tomb robber!!!" said Aya, "Is it true?? Please tell me!"
"Now is not the time to tell you." Replied Rena, "Right now I have an appointment with Pharaoh. Maybe I will tell you some other time."
"Ok then!!" said Aya, "See you tomorrow Miss Rena!!"
"Ok…" said Rena, "Now you go on off to bed Aya."
The young girl nodded and went off towards her quarters. After the entrance to the sanctuary was cleared, Rena went off towards the Pharaoh's Sanctuary, the golden hall that was restricted to many people of the palace. The only people that were allowed to enter were the six priests, and the Sacred Servants. Rena walked down quietly the large hall, until she reached a large door that bore the eye of Amon-Ra. Rena knocked on the door quietly, and heard a familiar voice call out.
"Come in."
Rena opened the door and enter the room. This room, from which the floors and walls were composed of gold, was well known as the Pharaoh's Chamber. Rena had been in this room before four years ago. She remembered when she was attacked by the priest Akunadin and thrown into the dungeons because of the power she had. Atem had saved her from Akunadin's wrath and made her a Sacred Servant of the palace.
Rena found Atem standing out on the balcony that overlooked the Nile. Atemu turned around from where he was, and wrapped his arms around Rena. He had missed her so much throughout the day. Even though she saved his life from Bakura, he wanted to spend time with her as he had done years ago.
"Rena, I missed you so much." Said Atem as he held her in his arms.
"Atem…is it almost time?" asked Rena.
"No not yet…" said Atem, "Because of the incident with Bakura, I can't put you in danger Rena…please understand…"
"I guess I'll just wait a little longer…" said Rena
"Rena…it will be soon….after Bakura is dead, we will marry….this I promise you…."
He brought Rena's body closer to his. Then, he slowly placed his lips on her lips. Rena felt a strange sensation going through her veins. She began to fell light, as if she were traveling on air. Rena felt his tongue moving through her mouth, she closed her eyes, as he kissed her away. She felt her legs bump against something, she turned around and noticed that he pushed her against the bed.
"Atem…" said Rena.
As Rena and Atem kissed away in the royal chamber of the pharaoh, Mahado had something to do. Since the casket of Akunumkanon was returned to the palace because of Bakura Mahado felt that it was his responsibility to return it to its resting place in the Valley of The Kings. He went into the temple to prepare himself for his journey to the resting place of the pharaoh's. Isis, who seemed worried about him, tried to stop him from making the journey the next morning.
"Mahado, you mustn't go to the Valley of the Kings." Pleaded Isis, "I fear for you future."
"Isis, it is my sacred duty to serve pharaoh." Explained Mahado, "I have protected Pharaoh ever since he was a child, I am forevermore, his humble servant. I must return his father's casket so that his father may rest in the afterlife."
"Mahado, its not that…" said Isis, "It is Bakura…I fear that he may interfere with your journey to the Valley of the Kings….when he fought pharaoh and Rena earlier today, I saw him glaring at you and your Millennium Ring…and the hatred I could sense within his soul….it was immense….he has a strong hatred for the pharaoh for some reason….please Mahado, don't go…"
"Isis, I've made my decision." Said Mahado, "I am going to the Valley of the Kings to return Akunumkanon's casket in his tomb tomorrow. Good evening Isis."
Mahado left the temple and returned to his quarters inside one of the Ouiju Shrines outside of the palace. Isis, who was still inside the temple, tapped into the power of her Millennium Tauk to once again foresee what would happen to Mahado.
[Dum dum dum…Isis sees into the future!!]
Mahado was in a cave somewhere deep in the desert. He was about to duel against Bakura, who blocked his way to the Valley of the Kings. Mahado's body began to glow a silvery color, allowing him to summon his Ka, the Illusive Magician. Bakura's body glowed in the same way, making him call forth of Diabound, the creature that Atem defeated with one of the Egyptian gods.
"It is time that I avenge the previous pharaoh for what you have done!!" cried Mahado, "Illusive Magician, attack!!"
"Fool…" said Bakura, "I wont allow some thick headed priest to defeat me!!! Diabound attack, and send this so called priest to hell!!"
Mahado let out a loud cry. Then Isis's vision was clouded by a bright light; she wasn't able to see the outcome of the duel, but she had a strong feeling about what was going to happen to Mahado.
[Bwahahaha!!! It's the end of fortune telling!!!]
"Mahado…" said Isis quietly, "Please be careful….I fear that the days ahead will become darker….something is about to happen that will never happen again…."
Meanwhile, Rena was fast asleep in the pharaoh's chamber, with Atem lying right next to her. She woke up all of a sudden because of a dark presence approaching. She kissed Atem on the forehead and walked towards the balcony. She looked out towards the Nile and noticed that the wind wasn't blowing like usual. Then she felt a strange, cold feeling climbing up her spine, the same feeling that a person gets when a bad omen approaches. She, like Isis, felt a darkness approaching towards them. She looked once more towards the Nile and then looked back at Atem.
She said quietly to herself, "Something of pure evil is coming for us… an ill omen will befall on this fair kingdom…."
