It was a cold windy day in Domino City. People dressed up in their jackets as the wind made it even more chilly. A newspaper was being blown around the alley into a puddle. Nothing seemed to happen until you saw a man's hand picking it up." Well well it seems my plan is working after all, Dr. Yoi will soon be fired, and I'll be their only hope." the man said as he dropped the paper and laughed as he walked away. On the News Paper front page read: Young Doctor Two Patients Dies In His Care? It said as it was once more blown away.
Even though the day was chilly, the Hospital was a fiery furnace with tons of reporters and photographers." Mame what do you think of Dr. Yoi, do you think he is taking good care of your child?" said a reporter." Sir, how long have you known Dr. Yoi?" asked another one. One of the nurse and elderly lady with grey hair marched up to the reporters" All right, that's enough I want every single one of you people out of here unless your here for a check up or something we have sick patients who need rest and hear you all are shouting like stinken two year old." she shouted at them. She then turned to one of the girls at the front desk" You call security and get people out here to take care of them." she commanded. She faced the crowd once more" If you all don't get out of here in less than 5 mins you all are going straight to jail or I'll force you out of the hospital by force myself." she huffed as she walked down into one of the halls of the hospital. The crowd started leaving and security was right behind them making sure that they were all outside.
Seto woke up this morning with a terrible headache and his dreams were not helping. Last night in his dream a little girl came to him and said that a boy will be next and don't trust Mr. Mean. He woke up after the girl told him that she was alright as she disappeared into thin air. Seto was getting concerned about himself but even more concerned about Yugi cause the girl in his dream said a boy would be next did she mean Yugi or someone else. Seto shook his head" I'm not gonna start believing in this hokus pokus." he mumbled to himself. He went into the bathroom and opened his cabinet mirror and grabbed a bottle of Aspirin. He popped one in his mouth and swallowed it. He put the medicine back and headed out the door and walked down stairs. He walked into the kitchen to make himself a cup of coffee" Mr. Kaiba sir, if you drink anymore coffee you'll end up turning into one." said a familiar voice."Roland, you know how I am when I don't have my caffeine." Seto answered smuggly. Roland nodded his head in agreement as he grabbed two muggs. Seto raised an eyebrow and Roland just looked back at him" Mr. Kaiba sir you know how I am if I don't have my caffeine." he said sarcastically. Seto rolled his eyes and gave a small smirk as he poured the black liquid into the two muggs. Roland looked at his watch and looked back at Seto" Sir are you going to work today?" he asked out of confusion.
Roland was shocked when Seto shook his head " No, I was thinking about going to the doctor today." he said as he took a sip of his coffee. Roland frowned at this" Has Mr. Kaiba been feeling under the weather?" he asked. Seto sigh" I have been having these crazy dreams lately, first one was of Yugi and some strange guy I never met wanting to kill him,second one was of an old man saying someone poisoned him, and the last one which I had last night was of a little girl saying a boy was next and that she was ok." he explained to Roland. Roland hummed" Perhaps they weren't dreams but vision?" he suggested. Seto growled" Roland don't even go there you know I don't believe in that kind of stuff." he said angrily." Doesn't mean if you don't believe it doesn't make it not true." Roland said as he stirred his coffee. Seto left the room and went outside. He hopped into the limo and told the driver to take him to the hospital. He reached the hospital 20 mins later and he wished he didn't come at all as he saw news reporters and photographers. As soon as he got out of the limo and shut the door everyone in the crowd turned around and looked at him. It was silent for a few seconds until the whole crowd ran straight toward him." Mr. Kaiba, how do you feel about Dr. Yoi, do you think you can trust him?" A reporter asked." Who?" Kaiba asked, confused. Before Seto could ask what was going on another reporter was shoving a mike up in his face" Mr. Kaiba do you think Dr. Yoi is not taking care of his patient?" the man asked." I don't have a clue-" but Kaiba's sentences were interrupted by another reporter" Mr. Kaiba, do you think another patient of Dr. Yoi will die?" she asked. Seto was getting frustrated and his headache was pounding in his head, he rubbed his temple and sighs " This is the kind of stuff that makes me want to go insane." he thought in his head. Seto just ignored everyone and just pushed them out of the way. As soon as he reached the door the security guard opened the door for him and as soon as he was in the building the door was closed. Seto could hear curses and insults but he just walked away as he walked up to the front desk and asked for one of the doctors.
Half an hour later, Seto landed in a waiting room nursing his huge headache which should now be called migraine. His headache started getting worse ever since he arrived at the hospital. He leaned his head back and closed his head to stop the pounding in his head." Help him" Kaiba bolted up in the chair he's in. He looked around but didn't see anyone beside him or anywhere close to him. A few people looked at him but went back to doing what they were doing, Seto felt a cold chill roll up his spine." Mr. Kaiba sir, are you coming today or tomorrow." a grouchy voice said. Seto looked up to see a doctor with red-orange hair, Seto stared at the doctor" Have I seen him before somewhere?" he wondered. He shook himself out of his thoughts" Uh yeah sorry been having a killer headache hard to concentrate when your head feels like it's pounding your brain." Seto stated. The doctor raised an eyebrow" Well come on then let's get this over with." he grumbled." Man ain't he a cheery guy." Seto thought. The doctor checked Seto and didn't see anything wrong" Are you drinking plenty of water cause I know that nowadays you youngsters drink nothing but coffee." The doctor said dully. Seto rolled his eyes. Yes he may drink a lot of coffee but he also drinks water. He is not some kid who doesn't know when to quit doing something." Yes I drink water. How old do you think I am? 14." Seto said sarcastically. The doctor glared at Seto" No reason to have a smart mouth Mr. Kaiba, I'm just doing my job." the doctor growled out." A lousy one at that." Seto kept his thoughts to himself. The doctor kept asking questions and checked his blood sugar which Kaiba didn't think was necessary. After 15 minutes passed the doctor just scribe Seto Tylenol for his headache.
Seto was walking down the hall wanting to leave the forsaken place" That doctor was one of the worst doctors I have ever encountered." Seto resent. While Kaiba was sulking he didn't notice a dark figure behind him walking into a room. Once Seto was done sulking he heard a voice the same one he heard in his dream the night he was in his office*Yugi's voice*. But something was different about this voice; it sounded deeper." Help him please before it's too late!" it shouted. Kaiba all of the sudden felt a strange tug feeling like a 6 sense telling him where to go. Seto so badly wanted to ignore it he really did, but when he thought about that it made him feel sad like he was going to lose something close to him. So instead of leaving he went back down the hall he just came from.
The spirit of the puzzle was in his soul room resting since there wasn't anything else for him to do besides walking through the corridor of the puzzle which was like a huge maze. All of the sudden he felt something and not just anything it was dark. He immediately fazed out of the puzzle to see the intruder, but when he did he was shocked to see a doctor and not just any doctor it was the doctor with red-orange hair Dr. Heikin. The spirit learned his name the first time he was in the room when his host had what they call a panic attack. Of course he didn't know much of this world but he knew enough from his host mind that this doctor shouldn't be here. He felt the puzzle power distress. It was like it was saying " Find help quick or the boy will be no more." and the spirit didn't need to be told twice. He dug deep into the puzzle power trying to contact anyone who was willing to help. It didn't take long though for the power surge left the puzzle as if the helper was closer than before. The spirit opened his eyes and his heart dropped as the figure held a shiny object filled with some clear liquid. He charged at the man trying to stop the man but was useless as he went right through the man. He cursed himself for not thinking clearly if no one could see him. How was he supposed to stop someone when he doesn't have a fiscal form? Just as the doctor was about to inject the boy with whatever was in that object the door was open illuminating the room with light. There stood a young fellow with a white coat and brown hair and icy blue eyes. The man stood there in shock for a moment before speaking." Dr. Heikin, what are you doing in Yugi's room?" he asked. Before the spirit knew it the doctor grabbed an object that looked like what his Hikari called a knife and charged at the man.
Seto almost froze when he saw the doctor ready to inject Yugi with something but when the doctor grabbed a scalpel off a trey and charged at him. Kaiba saw that the doctor was aiming for his chest but he quickly moved out of the way swiftly." Boy am I glad Roland taught me self defence." Seto praised in his head. The doctor swung the scalpel again at Seto again, this time exceedingly cutting his left arm. Kaiba gripped his arm and winced at the pain" Aww look what you made me do Mr. Kaiba, if you would mind your own business you wouldn't have gotten hurt." Dr. Heikin mocked. Seto glared at the older man" Well if I have been minding my own business Yugi would be dead." he growled as rage went through his system. The doctor chuckled" Can you prove that Mr. Kaiba I could've been giving Mr. Muto medicine that he needed so what proof do you have?" he said mockingly. " Well for one thing why did you attack me if you were just giving Yugi medicine he needed and second you wouldn't have the look of fear on your face." Kaiba answered as blood dripped through his fingers. Dr. Heikin growled but then smiled" Well no one will know if there is no witness, isn't that right Mr. Kaiba." he said smugly. The doctor lunged at Kaiba once again and Seto only had a split second to move out of the way. The doctor growled when he missed his target. Once again the doctor was facing the door and Seto standing there but clinching on his injured arm.
The doctor smirked and started laughing while Seto looked at him confused about what he was laughing about. Before Kaiba could even register what was happening the doctor quickly turned around and raised the scalpel above the small teen throat. Dr. Heikin was about to stab the boy but froze. The child wasn't asleep anymore after all the ruckus going on in the room he woke up and now was staring at the doctor with frightful eyes. The slight hesitation was all Seto needed; he went behind the doctor and grabbed the arm holding the scalpel and pulled back on it. The doctor was stubborn; he didn't let go of the scalpel even though his arms were hurting because Kaiba was bending it back. The doctor used his other hand and hit Seto's injured arm and that did the trick. Kaiba yelped in pain and let go of his captor, but he kicked the doctor in the stomach, as the doctor was flown back and hit against Yugi's hospital bed. Seto grit his teeth in pain. The doctor was about to lunge at him when something hard hit the back of his head and made him collapse onto the floor. Seto looked up to see Yugi holding a metal tray that the doctors used to carry their utensil in his hand. Kaiba could see Yugi was shaking out of fear or surprise, maybe a mixer of both as he dropped the trey and it landed on the unconscious doctor's head. Seto would have laughed if he wasn't so much in pain and if the situation wasn''t a life and death one.
Kaiba got off the floor and looked at the doctor who was unmoving" I wouldn't be moving either if my head was hit with a metal trey twice." Seto thought. Kaiba looked at Yugi who was staring right back at him making an ok sign with his hands, he nodded his head which made the small teen calm down. Pretty soon footsteps were heard as nurses and doctors came rushing in after hearing all the commotion. Kaiba wondered what took everyone so long to get here as he looked at his watch and was shocked to see that it has only been 5 mins since he has been in this room. A nurse rushed to Kaiba to inspect his injury while another nurse checked on Yugi to see if he was ok. A doctor checked on Dr. Heikin and to find out he was just unconscious they tried waking him up. Finally the cops arrived, but instead of handcuffing Dr. Heikin they were heading toward Kaiba." Mr. Kaiba you're under arrest-" but the officer didn't get the chance to finish as Seto shouted at the officer" WHAT !WHY ARE YOU ARRESTING ME FOR!" making the nurse jump at the unsudden action. Yugi heard what Seto said. He looked at the nurse that was beside him. He shook his head as he pointed at himself and then at the unconscious doctor. The nurse didn't understand what he was saying. The police officer was now getting frustrated" Mr. Kaiba, if you don't behave I'm gonna have to use force now act like a grown man instead of a child." said the officer. Seto was not having any of it . He jerked his hand away from the cop again. `` I don't know why you're arresting me when you should arrest that pile of garbage there." he said pointing at Dr. Heikin who was starting to stir. By this time Yugi was frantic. He was trying to tell them that Kaiba was not the criminal, it was the doctor but it was kind of hard when you can't speak because your mouth is wired shut.
Yugi pushed the cover off of him and jumped out of the bed; he wasn't connected to the IV anymore since Dr. Heikin was going to inject whatever liquid into the tub. Nurse saw this and tried to stop him but he was already running at the officer who was trying to put Seto into handcuffs. Yugi grabbed a hold of the officer's uniform and pulled back on it with the little strength he had. The cop felt the tug and looked down to see Yugi '' What the heck does this kid think he's doing?" he thought. Yugi looked up at the cop with tears in his eyes as he pointed at Dr. Heikin and then at himself. The nurse came up behind him and grabbed him this startled Yugi as he accidentally hit the nurse across the face. He tugged on the cop uniform again and pointed at the doctor. He repeated this action over and over while two more nurses went to grab Yugi again but the teen saw this and ran away from them and went to Seto which he wasn't expecting at all. Seto's face went beat red with embarrassment Yugi was clinging on to Kaiba's pants legs like his brother does when he was too shy to meet someone. Now everyone was confused except for Dr. Heikin" What the heck, why is this kid running to the criminal?" they thought. Yugi once more pointed at Dr. Heikin and then at himself accepted this time he used his index finger and slid it across his neck, a sign for killing or cutting someone's neck. Everyone turned to look at the doctor, but he wasn't there anymore. Everyone heard a loud screech out in the hallway. The policemen ran out the hall" DCPD Stop!" they shouted. As soon as the police cleared out Yugi let go of Kiaba's pant legs and one of the nurses walked slowly to him making sure the teen didn't run off. They all led him back to his hospital bed and hooked his IV back into his arm. One of the nurses rebandaged Kaiba's arm as it came loose when the cop was trying to handcuff him earlier.
Yugi was lying in his bed as he watched the nurse rebandage Kaiba's arm. The nurse left the room to get cream for Seto's wounds and she practically gave him the death glare at the young man daring him to leave. Yugi looked down at his puzzle and was surprised that nobody tried to take it away from him because of some silly rule or violation or something. He rubbed the puzzle with his hospital gown sleeve trying to get all the smudges off. He smiled at it as it seemed to glow when nothing was on it." What's that Yugi?" Seto's voice asked. Yugi jumped a little not expecting Kaiba to talk to him. He looked at Kaiba nervously; he really didn't know how to tell Kaiba it's called a Millennium Puzzle using his hand. Then an Idea popped into his head. He used hands as if he was writing something. Seto looked around the room and found a pen and he grabbed a little note book that he uses to keep track of things he needed done in a day. He handed it to Yugi, he waited until Yugi handed the notebook and as it read" It's called a Millennium Puzzle my grandfather gave it to me on my 8th birthday it took me six years to complete it." Kaiba handed back the notebook to Yugi'' It's pretty neat, where did it come from?" he asked out of curiosity. Yugi scribbled in the notebook and handed it back to him." It was from Egypt. "My grandfather got it on one of his expeditions." Kaiba just nodded his head. By this time the nurse came back with the cream and when she was done she told Seto was free to leave and that he should take care of arm.
Inside the puzzle a very worn out spirit was in his soul room trying to rest. After using his energy to summon the Millennium power he felt like he could sleep for years. But his mind kept on thinking of negative thoughts" What if Kaiba didn't come? What if the puzzle couldn't find any help?" he shook those thoughts out of his head." I need to start thinking of the presence not the pass." he stated to himself. He sat in his soul room and leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.
It was now night time in the city as most of the people had gone home to go to bed, but something was happening in Dominoes City prison. Most of the prisoners in their cell were fast asleep while others just layed in their cot that was stiff as a board. One particular person who just arrived after getting caught trying to poison a small teen and being convicted of killing two other patients at the hospital Dr. Heikin. The red-orange hair man was just casually laying on his cot staring at the ceiling. That was until someone unlocked his cell door. The man bolted up from his cot and saw a tall man wearing a police guard uniform." What are you doing here? My trial doesn't start until next week." he said. The guard gave an evil smirk" You won't be having a trial Dr. Heikin, you have failed our community." the guard said in a cold hearted tone. Dr. Heikin had a look of fear on his face" No wait, give me another chance I'll do a better job next time please." the doctor begged. The undercover guard just chuckled" Names." he said." What?" the doctor said, confused." Give me the names who stopped you before the cops showed up, idiot." the fake guard growled out as he shook the doctor put up his hands in surrender" Ok ok it was the spoiled brat that owns that company Kaiba Corp. his name is Seto Kaiba and the kid who I was suppose to kill which I don't know why you wanted him dead." the doctor explained nervously. The fake guard frown" Let's just say that kid, his grandfather and I have a score to settle. He took something away from me so I'm just returning the favor." he said. The man got out of his past memory and cocked the gun and the doctor froze with fear. " H-Hey w-what are y-you d-doing?" he said shakily. The fake guard smiled evilly" I'm just getting rid of the garbage starting with you." he said he shot the doctor in the chest. The fake guard wiped off his fingerprints and stuck the gun in the dead doctor's hand. He walked out of the cell and before closing the cell he said" That's one pile of garbage now it's time to take out the trash and that's your grandson Solomon." he said darkly as he shut the cell door. He wasn't worried about getting caught because no one heard a gun fire. He put a silencer on the gun for a reason. The man smirked" Can't wait to see what's in the newspaper tomorrow as he disappears into the dark cloudy night.
Crimson red eyes shot open he looked around as if someone should be in the room with him, but he only saw darkness in his soul room. He got up off the cold floor and left his room to go to his host soul room. When he walked into the room he gave a small smile of relief as the room had brightened up more than last time. He looked over at the glass doll of the brown fur ball. It still had cracks in it but it was repairing itself back slowly and steady. He looked at the small figure in the bed fast asleep. It's funny he thought to himself. Even after all the trouble his host has been through he still had that look of an innocent child. A small tear ran down his cheeks; he still blamed himself for what happened to his host. His Hakari, his light saved him from the darkness and he couldn't protect him. He wiped the tear away and he made a vow that nothing else shall harm him anymore and anyone who does will have a price to pay. He fazed out of the puzzle he watched over his host who was curled up into a ball. He watched him sleep for a few minutes before feeling a dark presence, but it wasn't as strong but it was there. He looked out the hospital window and saw a person standing in the park across from the hospital, but didn't think much of it. The man could be standing there for many reasons so he passed the feeling as paranoid. He looked at his host one last time before going back into the puzzle to rest not knowing the danger that is coming in the near future.
Three weeks have gone by since the incident of Dr. Heikin killing Dr. Yoi patient. The day after that the guards found Dr. Heikin dead in his cell with a bullet in his chest. They claimed it suicide since Dr. Heikin finger prints was on it, but everyone wonder how he got the gun. The case dropped three days after finding no evidence of where he got the weapon. Now back to the present. Today was the day for the doctors to remove the wires from Yugi's mouth, Yugi was a little nervous. So now here he is sitting up in his bed waiting for the nurse to come get him. Another nurse came in today to unhook Yugi from his IV and told him the good news. A knock on the door caught Yugi's attention; he looked up to see his three best friends standing in the door. Yugi smiled showing the wire that kept his jaw closed, but Yugi didn't care he was happy to see his friends again." Hey Yug, how are you feeling?" asked his blonde hair friend. Yugi made an ok sign" That's good hey did they say when you could leave this dump?" Jounouchi jokes. Anzu rolled her eyes at Jou's joke while Yugi tried to hold in his laughter. Another knock on the door brought all the teens attention. A nurse stood there with wide eyes not expecting Yugi's friends to be there." Uh sorry but it's time for Mr. Muto to get the wires removed." she said as she wheeled in a wheelchair. Anzu's eyes widened ``Are you getting the wires removed today?" she said, turning around to look at Yugi. Yugi blushed and nodded his head slowly. Everyone except for Yugi and the nurse shouted out with excitement. The nurse glared at the three teens'' Excuse me this is a hospital not a zoo please tone down your voice." she said firmly. Yugi's friends gave the nurse a sheepish look" Sorry." they said at the same time. The nurse pushed the wheelchair toward Yugi and Yugi frowned because he did not like wheelchairs. The nurse laughed, " I'm sorry hun but it's regulation." she said as she helped Yugi off the bed in the wheelchair.`` Good luck Yug, well come by later to see how ya doing later on ok." Jou said. Yugi waved to them as he was pushed down the hall.
Two hour later the Oral doctor came and removed the wires from Yugi's mouth. Now he is back in his room trying to eat his food that the doctors gave him, but the food tastes metallic because the metal wires were in his mouth for so long. When they removed the wires they asked Yugi to talk to them, but when he tried to speak nothing came out. The doctor checks Yugi's throat and Yugi winces in pain when the doctor touch in certain places. They came to the conclusion that the reason Yugi couldn't speak was because of his bruised Larynx. There is a chance that Yugi may get his voice back and there is a chance it might not, but only time could tell. Yugi was kind of disappointed that he couldn't speak right away. He kind of misses hearing his own voice" So do I. '' a deep voice said that came out of nowhere. Yugi looked around the room but didn't see anyone. He scratched his head in confusion" I really hope I'm not going crazy." he thought desperately. The knock on the door snapped Yugi out of his thoughts and he looked at the door to see Mokuba. Yugi smiled brightly at the kid and Mokuba's eyes went wide" Hey the wires are gone does this mean you can finally talk?" he asked hopefully. Yugi frowned and shook his head and Mokuba looked dejectedly" Aw man what's wrong now?" the boy asked. Yugi pointed at his throat and shrugged his shoulders." Man, OH! I almost forgot I wanted to thank you for helping my brother with that doctor." the boy said. Yugi's blushed; he didn't do anything really besides hitting the doctor over the head with the metal tray. A knock on the door broke the atmosphere in the room. A nurse came in with a clipboard and had a smile on her face" Good news Mr. Muto the doctor checked your health report and you can be ready tomorrow to leave." she said the smile was not breaking from her face. Yugi however was not happy about the news, if he leaves the hospital that means he has to move to the orphanage. Suddenly the atmosphere in the room dropped. Yugi had tears welled up in his eyes. He didn't want to go to the orphanage at all; he heard many terrible stories about that place. Mokuba saw Yugi's attitude change dramatically. Yugi was on the verge of bursting into tears." Yugi what's wrong?" Mokuba asked worriedly.
Yugi just shook his head and closed his eyes to keep the tears from coming out of his eyes, it was too late tears started rolling down his cheeks. Mokuba was worried now was he right about his parents abusing him. Before he could ask Yugi a question the nurse answered for him" He has to go to the orphanage for a while dear until his grandfather is back on his feet I mean at least that's what I've been told." she said. Mokuba felt like he was hit with a ton of bricks'' WHAT! He can't go there doesn't he have any other relatives to stay with.`` Mokuba said." I'm afraid not his grandfather sign the paper to go to the orphanage." the nurse explained. Mokuba wasn't giving up" Hold on, I'll be right back." he told the nurse as he ran out of the room. A few minutes later Mokuba came back with his brother in tow" Please Seto you know how terrible that place can be all we have to do is wait until his grandfather is back on his feet please Seto please." the boy begged his older brother. Seto looked down at his little brother who was giving him the puppy dog eyes and he knew he was doomed to be buried. Mokuba knew Seto could never say no to his puppy dog's eyes." Fine but only for a while until his grandfather can take care of him again." Kaiba said, crossing his arms, but if you knew Seto really well you'll know that he cared too.
Yugi couldn't help himself, tears ran down his face like waterfalls as he jumped down from the hospital bed and hugged Seto. Kaiba's face turned beet red as he was not used to people hugging him other than his brother. The nurse however was a little unsure about this but didn't say anything" Ok I'll go tell the doctor so you can sign the paper for temporary custody." she said as she left the room." This is gonna be so awesome Yugi we can play games and watch TV,or play video games." Mokuba said excitedly. Yugi gave a shy smile as he wiped the tears away; he wished he could thank them. The nurse came back with a piece of paper in her hand, Kaiba took the paper and signed it.
A figure in a far distance watched as his victim was leaving the hospital with the Kaiba's. He cursed as he had to change his plane once more, but at least he knows where his victim will be. He watched for a few more minutes until the people left in the limo.
It was nighttime in the sandy desert as two men were riding on horses. One was in his 20's while the other looked to be in his early thirty." Are you sure we'll find the bracelet here." asked the youngest man. The older man nodded as he moved on forward after a while the young man spoke again" How do you know it's here? Where did you get the information from?" he asked quickly. The older man chuckled" I have a few friends here and there." he answered. They finally reached a place that looked like a huge cave made out of sand and rocks as there was a big hole in the middle of the munde. They both stopped their horses and climbed off. They tied them by a nearby rock so the horses wouldn't run off." Do you think you can trust your friends?' The young man asked worriedly. The older man laughed'' Don't tell me you are already getting cold feet." the man said smugly. The man looked at the entrance of the cave" Besides I love a little challenge." he said with a smile on his face." This isn't a game Solomon, we can probably die in there." the young man yelled. The older man now known as Solomon just laughed" Ahh come on what's the point in life if you don't have a little fun." he said as he lit up a lantern. Solomon slowly walked to the entrance of the cave but stopped to turn around to see the young lad by the horses." Come on Boken you'll won't find that bracelet out here." the elder man said. The young man slowly walked up to Solomon" If my memory is correct, Boken you were the one that wanted to come to find the bracelet." Solomon stated." W-Well that was b-before I knew h-how dangerous t-this place can be sir." the young man answered, trembling. Solomon rolled his eyes as he moved forward into the cave with Boken right behind him. They entered inside the cave which was surprisingly warm instead of cold like most caves. As they were walking further into the cave Solomon noticed that there were hieroglyphs writings on the wall. He stopped to read one" Beware of the darkness in your heart for it can consume you into oblivion. Read this warning and go back from where you came, if you proceed to go forward there is a chance you won't come back." it said. Solomon of course didn't take the warning as he proceeded forward as the young man followed him. They came into a room that had three doors above them where symbols the first one Greed, second Fear, and the third Darkness. All of sudden there was a rumble noise and the path that they just went through was blocked. The young man shouted out in fear" What do we know? How are we supposed to get out?" he asked in fear." Calm down Boken panicking is not gonna solve our problem." Solomon said calmly.
Solomon looked around the room as the younger man stayed right behind him. Finally he found something carved in the wall as it said" Life gives you options so here is one for you since you didn't take the warning you have to answer this riddle then pick the door you think is right. But beware of the darkness in your heart you may know the right door but your heart may go to the wrong door." Solomon looked beside the writing and read the riddle." The more there is the less you see." he read out loud. The young man looked dumbly at Solomon" What the feak is that supposed to mean!" he shouted. Solomon sigh" It's a riddle we have to solve to pick the right door." he said. He sat down on the floor and started to think" What are you doing? We don't have time to sleep." the young man whined." I'm not sleeping, I'm thinking of the answer." Solomon said. Hours passed and Solomon was still thinking the answer could be any door if you have more greed the less you see yourself. The more fear you have the less you see of what not to be afraid of. The more darkness the less you see what's in front of you. All of a sudden Boken shouted out in frustration and fear" I can take this anymore I'm just gonna pick a door so I can get out of here!" he shouted as he ran to the middle door." No! Boken don't-" but Solomon was too late. Boken opened the middle door at first nothing happened until huge legs grabbed the young man and pulled him into the room the door slammed closed. There was a scream of terror and instantly it went quiet Solomon sat in the room frozen as tears fell from his eyes. Solomon felt bad for the young man. He waited for a few minutes to calm himself down before slowly getting up and walking to the third door that had the symbol of Darkness on it. He slowly opened the door. At first he didn't see anything until somehow torches in the room lit up the room.
Solomon walked into the room. It was golden and there were tons of pictures of battles and people working in the fields. He walked down the hall until he saw a huge room like a ball room in some castle. There were many old artefacts, but only one stood out from among them all the things that pretty much caused a young man's life. A bracelet with red and blue gem with a purple one in the middle of it. Solomon so badly wanted to grab the bracelet so he could claim the new finding, but grief held him back. He pretty much blamed himself for the young man's death." The man's death was not your fault; he died because of his own darkness in his heart." a man's voice said out of nowhere. Solomon turned around to face a young egypt man wearing a turban and white rob his eyes were a light color blue." W-Who are you?" Solomon asked in shock." My name is not important to anyone, however you still have a decision to make: will you take the treasure or are you gonna grieve over somebody that wasn't your responsibility." the turban man said. Solomon looked at the bracelet for a long time before slowly walking over and picked up the jewelry and inspected it. He looked at the object for a while before something struck him" Wait how do you-" but he didn't get to finish his question as the turban man was gone." Boken I'll keep a hold of this bracelet to remember you by." he said before continuing walking down the hall until he was out of the cave.
Solomon woke up from his dream well more like a memory than a dream. He hasn't had dreams about that time in a long time. That journey was one of his worst one he had cause as soon as he came back home to Japan he had to tell the Boken parents that he died. The father of course blamed Solomon for the death of his son. Solomon looked out the window of his bedroom he could only hope that nothing bad would happen. Little did Solomon know that there was a figure watching the Kame Game Shop." Soon Mr. Muto you'll feel what it's like to lose someone close to you." a man's voice spoke. As he walked away and disappeared into the darkness.
