Bakura's New Game
Bakura entered the shop. He was greeted with a creek of the door and the ring of a broken bell from above. The air was thick with the smell of mold, dust, and old wood. He scrunched his nose at the smell but the store wasn't any better.
The small store was covered with dust, the large window made smudged light shine in threw the dirty window. The floor needed to be swept, and the walls washed. Everything seemed so gray and old. Shelves where everywhere to be seen, dust covered and filled with all sorts of different and odd objects from around the world, from Astralia to Ireland. Some shelves where broken and on the floor making some objects scatter around the floor, the walls where lined with boxes with faded writing from years ago.
"What a dump..." He mumbled as he walked past the rows of shelves. Things were broken and chipped, hardly worth buying.
He stopped in between two shelves to look at a statue of Anubus, one arm was broken off and a crack ran threw the head, next to that was a china pot, the rim was chipped and it looked as if it could fall apart right there. It had faded pinks, blues, and greens painted on to form flowers and trees. He rolled his eyes at it and turned back, wondering why he came into such a rundown place.
As he turned a gleam of gold caught his eye. He turned toard it and walked forward. He found himself at the counter, an old chash register sat there, waiting to be used. A glass case was at the bottom of the counter, there is where the gleam came from.
It was a gold box, this too was covered in dust but he could still see the faint golden light that shown off the box. It was just about 8in. long and 5in. wide, it could fit perfectly in his hands. On the top was the symbol for the Eye of Horus, but this had a black gem in the middle. It seemed to swirl around within it's self, a splash of bluish gray formed every now and then. This box seemed more valuable then any other thing in the story, it seemed to call to Bakura, as if he should have it, drawing him in. Something deep inside his cold heart told him it would come in good use, just the gem gave off this strong aura.
"May I help you?" A rusty voice broke threw Bakura's thoughts. His head shot up to meet a dull blue gaze. An old man, small, loose glasses at the end of his nose, and white hair covering his nearly bald head, but his eyes held a sparkle that bad Bakura abit nervous. He gave him a smile which Bakura did not return.
"Yes..." he began. "What is that golden box there?" He pointed to it in the smeared glass. The old man's eyes flickered. "Why yes...I see you have an eye for good artifacts. This trinket came all the way from Egypt. Buried in the deadly sands near a pharaoh's tome! Quiet the find! This pharaoh had a liking for games...You see this box was said to create the perfect game where the holder of the box made the rules, he could bend reality to his will! But that is all but a legend surly..." He finished off by pulling the box out of its resting place and dusting off some dust.
Bakura became interested in this small box, if this tale was true he could have want he longed for...An insane smirk grow on his lips and his gaze met the old man's. "So...tell me, What is this box called?" The man smiled. "Yes, of course! It was called The Gods' Gamble in Egypt." "Is that so, now would you say You believe in this...Gamble?" Bakura asked lifting "The Gods' Gamble", it was lighter then he thought and he felt a pulse go up his arms as he held it.
"I would say it was true, you never know. But that's just coming from a crazy old man!" Bakura smiled. "Not as crazy as you think...how much?" He asked. The old man pondered for a time. "For you my friend. I'll give it to you, free of charge." Now he was crazy, but Bakura was not to argue. "Fine then. I'll take it."
He took his new gift and walked back to the front of the store. He exited with another broken "ding" of the bell and creek of the door. He turned but stopped and looked through the murky window to see the old man vanished. He left as quickly as he came, and without a sound. Bakura however shrugged it off and started to walk back to his home.
He entered his apartment and went to his room where he locked himself in. The white hair teen placed the golden box on his bed and looked at it with curious eyes. I know you have some sort of power...but what and how do I control it! He growled in frustration. He took "The Gods' Gamble" and shock it rapidly before throwing it agenist the wall. It landed with a thud unharmed, or marked. The black gem just swirled around as it was. Bakura picked it back up, no use getting mad over a box!
He placed his hand over the gem and that's when it pulsed once more. He looked down at it. He put his hand over the gem again, another pulse. He pushed down abit, stronger it flowed. He put all his weight on it and the pulse became stronger and more powerful, then with a soft "click" the Eye of Horus was pushed down and it turned on it's own. Bakura just sat amazed at the little thing. The gem flashed once then became a lit glow of black light. The Eye turned a full 360 before another click was heard and the box began to open! It made a fast shine of golden light mixed with the black glow before it dulled away to nothing. Bakura didn't take his eyes off of it for a second! He leaned over it wide-eyed in awe.
The box now lay flat. The inside was normal, just flat gold. But there was a small box in the middle. He lifted it up and removed the stone cover. Inside where 4 small pieces, all looking like human shapes. Seems only four player in this game... He turned them in his hand, inspecting them, nothing special. There was nothing else. No game board or directions. He became confused, how was he going to play?
He put his hand on the gem, it glowed slightly brighter. Then out of a hunch he put one of the game pieces over it...and it flared to life!
