XXI. Reincarnated Pharoah

Ishizu and the others rode their way to Alexandria while Yugi takes his time to examine the crown that Atemu gave him. He didn't know what powers it has but he knows it would protect him as the pharaoh did to him before. Malik notices the crown that Yugi got from the Afterlife Past.

"Yugi, where did you get that crown?" Malik asked as Ishizu and Rishid were listening

"I got this from Atemu though he told me that it would help me but I have totally no idea though" Yugi answered

"Hmmmm... oh Ra, please protect us from our journey" Ishizu said thoughtlessly

Back at Domino, Jounouchi just finished his daily newspaper routine when the dark mist surround some of the cities while he was delivering.

"Don't tell me it's another one of those 'save the world thing' again that's Yugi's whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Jounouchi said stumbling upon a possessed man.

"uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" the possessed man moaned as he went towards Jounouchi

"Get away from me you freakazoid" Jounouchi said as he tried to swish his newspaper on the possessed man. Fortunately, he made a hit and he was unconcious.

"What's going on here?" he asked himself

Back at Egypt, Yugi and the others arrived at Alexandria. They noticed that its the only city without the dark mist but they don't know why. As they looked around, Yugi noticed that the Pharaoh's crown is glowing. They all stared in wonder as a beam of light appeared and poinring at an simple looking house further down the road so they followed it and as they walked by, there were no people and Yugi is beginning to sensed a bad vibe. Finally, they arrived and Ishizu knocked at the door at the same time the crown stopped glowing.

"Hello, is anyboby in there?" Ishizu said, knocking the door

"Who's there?" a woman's voice said threatenly

"I recognize that voice" she said. "Kristine, it's me Ishizu let us in" Ishizu said and the door was opened

"Miss Ishizu, I see you have brought your brothers and your friend come in hurry before the dark mist will captured you" she said as she opened the door slowly and they went in then she shut the door. A teenage woman about eighteen years and has long black hair wearing an Egyptian garb was her appearance to them.

"Krstine you know that this is gonna----" Ishizu said when Yugi stopped her from speaking.

"Are you our enemy?" Yugi asked sternly

"Why 'Reincarnated Pharoah' how could you say such things?' Kristine said with a smile

"Yugi, what are you talking about?" Malik asked

"I sensed some power in her. The same power of the Millennium Puzzle" Yugi stated still staring at her

"You're right and wrong at the same time" Kristine replied and she showed the true form of the Millennium Rod. It was much longer and had a circular sphere in it and there's the Eye of Horus as well

"I-i-is that the Millennium Rod?" Malik asked in horror

"No it's not, this is the true form of the Millennium Rod it's called the Millennium Staff and I'm supposed to give it to the 'reincarnated pharaoh' and don't worry I'm not your enemy" Kristine replied sternly and Yugi was relived

"First thing first why am I the 'reincarnated pharaoh' in the first place? I don't have any powers!" Yugi asked in exasperation

"Do you ever wonder why you were chosen by the puzzle eight years ago?" Kristine asked calmly. Yugi shook his head

"Well for starters it isn't destiny or fate but the reason is you and the pharaoh bore the darkness in your hearts" Kristine stated and Yugi reacted in horror

"What do you mean by that?" Ishizu asked

"My Millennium Staff has the power to see the past and you haven't overcome the darkness in your heart, it's loneliness isn't it?" Kristine said looking at Yugi's face. He hung his head for he knew Kristine was right.

"Yes that wasa long time ago before I got the Puzzle I was always weak until the Pharaoh came to my life but why do you think me and the Pharaoh are the same anyway?" Yugi replied in sadness. Malik, Ishizu, and Rishid just stared

"One: before you came to his life he was also alone burdened with the pharaoh's duties and doesn't know the meaning of friendship and two: he hasn't known much about his father. Isn't that the same as you?" Kristine said, asking

"...I see but..." Yugi said trying to deny the facts

"Rincarnated Pharaoh, Egyptians believed that once they died they will be reincarnated but only in a different form and it was true among history" Kristine said, trying to comfort him and the tombkeepers get it now

"So the reason Yugi is the 'reincarnated pharoah' is that he and the pharaoh shared the darkness within?" Rishid asked and Kristine nodded.

"Yugi take these two items with me" Kristine said and she gave Yugi the Millennium Staf and a spiral dragon that looks like Osiris except that it's eye is the same as the other Millennium items.

"Where did you get these items and what's that other item you gave him?" Malik asked

"It was given from Pharaoh Atemu who gave me these items although they don't exist and that dragon is called the Millennium Dragon, it has the power to summon the spirits of the previous bearers of the Millennium Items" Kristine repied and suddenly the two items shrunk themselves into a spark of light and went to the crown that was on Yugi's pocket

"Well that clears it up we should----" Ishizu said when suddenly an eathquake came.

"We better get out of here, the items have been protecting me for a long time and now that they're gone we have get out of this city immediately" Kriste\ine said and the others agreed. So they ran as fast as they can until they went far away from the city. The four of them watched gravely as the city finally enveloped eith the dark mist.

"This has gone too far I swear I will destroy the darkness from Egypt and I hope my home isn't affected as well" Yugi said as he watched Alexandria's fall
