===Yugi pov===
Everyone eat and drank happily at the feast, I smiled gently as Mana used her magic to make the food and plates dance around the table. Serenity laughing lightly as a few grapes bounced in front of her, she rested her head on Mai's shoulder. Mai smiled happily and kissed Serenity's forehead, my eyes sadden a bit. I slowly looked to the head of the table but…he wasn't there. I sighed heavily and turned back towards the dancing plates
"Something wrong Yugi" someone asked
I looked to who it was, and it was Luna. She smiled gently at me then sat down next to me.
"Are you fine? You look like you have a lot on your mind" she said
"…I do…I thought coming back here would make me happy but…I lost something's along the way" I said
"What do you mean" she asked
"…the person I was staying with…I left so I could come here" I said
"I'm sure you can go back to that person" she said
"I can't…she left along with her son" I said
"Son, oh the little boy who was with you last time" she said
"She left because she loved me" I said
"Yugi…I'm so sorry…I wished I could do something" she said
"There is nothing you can do Luna…I made the choice to come back here and she made the choice to leave…" I said
"Cheer up Yugi, someday you will see her again" she said
"…maybe…" I said
"Yugi" someone called
I turned my head to see Mahad, he motion for me to follow him. I excused myself from the table and follow Mahad outside the dining room. Waiting by the door was the pharaoh, I whimpered softly as he looked at me. He looked at me with some sadness in his eyes
"Yugi…I'm sorry for what I have done…I shouldn't have done what I did but, I…I just snapped and I was thinking correctly. I will understand if you never want to forgive me" he said
"You…you wanted to steal my virginity" I said
"I'm sorry Yugi…I am truly sorry…I don't know how to make this up but…I at least I can start by apologizing and helping you get home" he said
"Home? You mean to my own time…" I said
"Yes…while you were gone Aknadin discovered a way for you to be able to go back to your own time" he said
I remain silent…this is it…I will be able to go back home. I don't know why but…I don't feel happy as I thought about going home. The pharaoh walked up to me, he gently held my hand. I looked up into his eyes. His eyes begged with forgiveness…he is upset about what he had done…
"Thank you pharaoh…I...I am glad to hear I will be going home" I said
"I will tell the priests to prepare for the ritual" Mahad said
"Thank you, I will escort Yugi back to his room to gather his things" the pharaoh said
Mahad nodded his head then he left, the pharaoh turned to me. I merely nodded my head and started to walk back towards my room. My mind kept buzzing with thoughts about what was going on…what is going to happen to Katara?…what will happen to the pharaoh?...would I ever be able to read about them in the history books…I snapped out of my thoughts when the pharaoh placed his hand on my shoulder. I looked up, we had already reached my room. I quickly went inside and started to gather my things.
I noticed a candy bar sticking out from my backpack, I pulled it out and saw it is a Butterfinger. I held the candy gently…the pharaoh liked the first one…maybe he will like this one. I left the room, the pharaoh leaned on the wall opposite of the door. I walked up to him and held out the Butterfinger, he looked at the candy surprise.
"Here…I think you will like this" I said
"What is it" he asked
"It's candy bar…careful the caramel might stick to your teeth so just drink so water" I said
"I can't accept this Yugi…" he said
"Please pharaoh…just take it" I asked
"…thank you Yugi…I will cherish every bite" he said
"You better they won't be around for thousands of years" I chuckled softly
The pharaoh also chuckled along with me, I looked at him then looked back at the ground…this is it…I will be going back home…back to my own time…The pharaoh lead the way and I followed him, he walked towards one of the I first saw when I came here. The room with a large round table, a blue flame burned brightly as all six priests sat around the table. The stood up and bowed to the pharaoh.
"We are ready to begin the ritual pharaoh" Aknadin said
The pharaoh nodded his head, each of the priest held onto his or her millennium item then began to chant softly. The blue flame in the middle shot up to the air and burned brightly, I jumped and cling onto the pharaoh's arm. The pharaoh looked at me with surprised, I looked down and took my hand off the pharaoh. He sighed softly, he picked up the millennium puzzle by the rope and began to chant along with the priests.
The flame split open revealing a hallway of blue flames, I couldn't see the end of the fiery hallway because it looked so long.
"Yugi this portal will take you home, you must hurry because me and the priest can only do this once" the pharaoh said
"This…this will take me back to my own time" I said
"It will, please hurry Yugi I don't know how long we will be able to hold the portal open" he said
I nodded slowly then walked over to the fire portal, I looked at all of the priests. I bowed to each one.
"Thank you all, I will remember every one of you" I said
"Hurry up Yugi, we cannot keep this portal open forever" Seto hissed
"Goodbye to you all…and to you to pharaoh…I will…I will remember you the most…" I said
I looked at the pharaoh one last time, a gentle smile is on his face but what was so strange is…there are a few tears in his eyes. I smiled gently then walked into the portal. I felt the heat of the flame begin to heat up my body yet, it wasn't so hot to where I was sweating. I held onto the straps of my backpack and began to walk down the fiery hallway. It was strange walking in the hall of fire, it felt like I was walking through mud only the mud felt like it was burning. I should have but on my shoe before I left…maybe I should have changed clothing as well…Grandpa would think I went to a costume party or something.
Ahead of me a bright light glowed, I sped up to see it was Grandpa's game shop. I smiled brightly and began to run towards it. I smiled happily, I saw Grandpa swiping in front of the game shop as usual. Joey and Tristan walked up to the game shop and waved to Grandpa. Grandpa smiled and began to talk with them. All of a sudden I tripped, I fell on the floor of the hallway of fire. The flames didn't burn, but it was still hot. I felt one of my fingers burning on my hand, I looked to see it was the ring…the ring that promise he would protect me…the ring I thought had been destroy and lost forever….the ring which helped my go back…I looked up to see Joey and Tristan leaving while Grandpa went back to swiping.
I turned my head back to see the hallway still burning behind me…I slowly got up and ran.
