Chapter 4

During the night, Illidan had a strange dream about ancient land. He finally determined it was ancient Egypt due to all the sand that was around the city. There he saw himself meeting the pharaoh in the throne room. The vision was showing Illidan all that the Millennium Key had seen.

His past self had moved to the front of the pharaoh's throne, then bowed, and awaited the pharaoh's permission to rise. Of course, the pharaoh insisted that Illidan stop bowing to him.

The pharaoh said in an irritated voice "After all Illidan, you are one of my closest friends, not to mention you are my brother by marriage. We are almost like blood brothers. You do not have to bow to me ever."

Illidan's past self only lightly chuckled and said "I know my pharaoh, but I feel that I am bound to. I feel such honor to be your friend and brother-in-law."

Sighing, the pharaoh finally said "Fine, arise Illidan."

His past self then arose to look at the pharaoh. Looking more closely at the pharaoh, Illidan realized that he was wearing a golden upside down pyramid that looked like it would come apart if dropped. It looked more like a puzzle than anything. Illidan then turned to look at his past self. He suddenly realized that his past self was wearing the Millennium Key.

"So, I was the owner of the Millennium Key. I guess Shadi was right after all."

The pharaoh then got off of his throne and walked down the steps to the past version of Illidan.

"So Illidan, what news do you bring?" the pharaoh asked nicely.

"Yami, the eighth Millennium Item has been finished. But there is a problem. I'm afraid that its evil is entirely too dangerous to be given to anyone." Illidan's past self said in a sad voice.

"Yami? That must have been the pharaoh's name. That name though, it sounds so familiar."

"What do you mean? Is the evil in it that strong?" asked a curious Yami.

"Yes, it is my pharaoh. The power sealed in it is greater than the other seven items combined. And to make matters worse, somehow it seems that the Millennium Crown has the same powers as all seven Millennium Items." past Illidan relayed to his pharaoh.

"Are you telling me that this item has the power of all seven?" asked a shocked Yami.

"Yes, it seems that it does. I'm unsure of what to do with the Millennium Crown now. Gozaburo and I were filling it with the power when he suddenly became possessed by it, but I luckily I acted fast when this happened. I quickly used my Millennium Key to send Gozaburo to the Shadow Realm in order to keep the Millennium Crown from taking his mind over completely. I apologize for my actions, but I did manage to get the crown off of him and then brought him back. He said he couldn't resist the evil, that it was far too powerful, even after all his training. I'm worried that this item maybe uncontrollable. I fear for Egypt now if that item is put into commission for use."

Yami slowly stroked his chin and finally said "Hmm, this is bad news indeed. If this item has this much power, then we must seal its power."

Illidan nodded and said "I agree. I have in mind the perfect seal if you so wish for me to put it in place. It shall be one that will never be broken. That way if anyone ever does take possession of this powerful item, it'll be mostly useless to them."

Yami replied with "There is one problem though."

Illidan raised an eyebrow and said "Oh? What is that?"

Moving slightly forward, Yami said "Can you fully seal it?"

Illidan thought for a moment and finally said "Really, I don't know. I don't think I can fully seal it. The powers that it has like the other seven items may not be sealable. I could only be able to seal the majority of its power."

Yami sighed and finally said "Then we have no choice but to do that then. If you can seal a majority of it's power away, then that is better than nothing. You must seal the crown as soon as possible. We will have all the others meet with us first though. Please, go tell all the others of our plan."

Illidan humbly bowed and said "As you wish my pharaoh."

Illidan then began to leave as Yami said "I really wish you'd stop that Illidan."

Chuckling, Illidan said "I know, but I mostly do it anymore to just have you say that you want me to stop that."

With that, both smirked. Illidan's past self then continued on his way to find the others.

Suddenly Illidan's vision ended. He woke up in a cold sweat. Glancing down, Illidan saw that the Millennium Key was glowing.

"So, you showed me this vision? Well, I thank you for convincing me more. And I now know that I must help save the world."

With that, the key then stopped glowing. Illidan then glanced at the time. It was 5 in the morning, so he decided it was time for more sleep. After all, he had a long day ahead, and he needed all the rest he could get.
