Hello everyone! I think I am so close to ending this story. So this is finally where things come to ahead. Marik? Can you help me?

Marik: Of course! Shadow does not own anything from YuGiOh, she only has the rights to her own characters.

Thank you so much Marik. Enjoy this chapter!

(Yugi's POV)

Today is the day, we are finally going to learn about Yami's past. Everyone is excited and nervous at the same time, we have no idea what caused him to be sealed inside the puzzle or what happened to separate him and Gabrielle.

"Worried Yug?" Joey asks me.

Right now, Joey and I are the only ones awake on the jet, everyone else is still asleep.

"A bit," I tell him. "We have no idea what we are going to find."

"I'm a bit worried bout that too. Seems like a lot of people know bout him than he does bout himself," Joey says.

That is true, everyone we have faced in a serious battle all knew that he is this nameless pharaoh.

"Another thing I am wonderin bout is that strange connection Maria mentioned back at Duelist Kingdom," Joey adds. "She was so worried bout Kaiba and she didn't even know him."

"I almost forgot about that," I admit. "Gabrielle said it was some type of spiritual connection."

"Ya know Yug, since we met these girl, I have had a strange feelin. It's like, I knew Maria from somewhere before. But I have no idea where though."

"Do you think you may be connected to Yami's past as well?"

"With how things go for us, I wouldn't put it past anythin."

(Three hours later. Tomb of the Nameless Pharaoh. Regular POV)

"Welcome everyone," Ishizu says.

"Are you ready for this, pharaoh?" Marik asks.

"Yes," Yami answers.

"Please, follow us," Odion says.

The three tomb keepers lead the group down into the tomb. The group stays close, not knowing what could happen if they get lost. The further they travel down, the more the puzzle and bracelet glow.

"Here we are," Odion says.

Yami is the first to walk into the tomb, his eyes widen when they fall upon the sarcophagus. He walks up and looks at the areas that are meant for the millennium items. He looks up to see what looks a door with a slot for the millennium puzzle, he removes it from his neck and places it in the slot. They all watch quietly when it begins to glow, they all cover their eyes when suddenly Yami is gone.

"Yami!" Gabrielle cries.

(Yami's POV)

"My pharaoh," I hear a voice say.

I slowly open my eyes to see a young man with long brown hair and blue eyes looking at me.

"Are you alright my pharaoh?" He asks.

"Yes, I am fine," I answer. "What were we discussing?"

"What to do about the King Thief," Seto answers.

My eyes widen, Seto what is he doing here?

"We have received word that he is somewhere within the city, we have guards looking everywhere for him."

I nod my head, the King Thief, who is he and what does he want? I am brought out of my thoughts as the door opens, I look up to see Gabrielle walk in with Maria. Gabrielle's hair is longer, skin a bit darker, her eyes kind yet serious, and her loving smile. Maria, on the other hand, has the same skin color as everyone else, her hair is the same length but darker and she looks serious. Both are dressed in warrior clothing, my eyes widen when I see the bump in Gabrielle's stomach.

"My Queen!" Seto says. "You should be resting!"

"I am sorry Priest Seto, but I had to protect the people," Gabrielle says. "There was an attack in the market."

"The Queen and I were able to capture two of the men while the rest ran off," Maria adds. "So far, they will not say more than he is here."

"Bring the men here," I order.

The two guards nod and leave the room, Gabrielle comes up to me while Maria goes to Seto. I stand and hug Gabrielle.

"My Queen," I say.

"Do not worry, our child is fine," Gabrielle says with a smile.

Our child...we are having a child. We turn when the guards return with the two men. Both grin with malice in their eyes, I glare at them.

"Where is the King Thief," I demand.

"He will only come when the time is right," one says.

"Who is this King Thief," Gabrielle demands.

The men only laugh at her, this makes my blood boil. How dare they!

"How dare you laugh at the Queen," the first man growls.

"You know the King Thief," the second man says. "He will come and take you away."

We all go silent, Gabrielle knows the King Thief?

"Speak his name!" Maria yells, drawing her sword.

"Stand down Skylar," Gabrielle says, walking up to the men.

"But my Queen-" Maria starts.

Gabrielle does not respond as she grabs the first man by his neck and lifts him into the air.

"I demand to know his name, tell me or I will send you to Hades!"

"He is your blood brother," the man barely gets out.

I watch as she drops the man, her body begins to shake. I bolt out of my seat and go to her side.

"My Queen, what is wrong?" I ask, wrapping my arms around her.

"He can't...he wouldn't..." Gabrielle stammers.

"Who is it?"

"Bakura...he has been my friend since we were young," Gabrielle tells me. "We made a blood pack five moons before I came here. He had vanished and I was worried he had been slain."

(Back with the others. Regular POV)

"Yami!" Gabrielle cries.

"Where did he go?" Tea asks.

"He was taken to his past," Shadi says, appearing. "He must remember his name and what happened to him."

"Can't we help him?" Maria asks.

"Yes, he will need it," Shadi says.

"Then let's go!" Tristan says.

"My Queen, I am sorry, but I cannot bring you along," Shadi says.

"What? Why not!?" Gabrielle demands.

"You must remember your past before you can help the Pharaoh."

Gabrielle goes quiet, she doesn't remember much of her past. She nods and Ishizu takes her down to another tomb, the tomb of the queen. Seto, Maria, Tristan, Yugi, Tea and Joey go with Shadi into the puzzle to find Yami. They soon find the memory and join him, it is strange for them to be in ancient egypt, especially when three of them have past to then as well.

"Where should we go?" Tea asks.

"I'd say follow the crowd," Joey says, seeing everyone go towards the palace.

They all nod and follow the crowd, the look up as two people make their eyes widen. Seto and Maria are standing on a balcony, both dressed in higher-ups clothing. Soon they see Yami and Gabrielle walk out, the two are smiling wide. Yami looks at his people as he holds up a little bundle, everyone cheers as the baby giggles.

"All hail Prince Leo! Son of our Pharaoh and Queen!" Seto says.

"All Hail Prince Leo!" The crowd cheers.

Yami looks out around the crowd when his eyes land on his friends, he smiles as he and his family leave the balcony. I head out of the palace as Yugi and the others walk up.

"Yami!" They all call.

"Hello my friends," Yami smiles.

"You have a son!?" Tristan and Joey yell.

"Yes, he was born just hours ago," Yami says. "Selene and I are happy to have him."

"Another question, why was Seto and Maria up there and down here?" Tea asks.

"Priest Seto is my cousin and Skylar is my guard and Seto's wife," Yami explains. "We have known each other all of our lives. Also, Seto is my cousin."

Everyone looks in shock as Maria nods, already knowing this.

"You know?" Yami asks Maria.

"I kept on having flashes of my past," Maria explains. "I didn't remember everything until coming here."

"Who else of us are here?" Tristan asks.

"Joey, Ishizu and Shadi," Yami tells him.

"Wait, me?" Joey asks, pointing at himself.

"Yes, your name is Jono and you are Maria's twin brother. You are also a guard."

Joey's mouth falls open, he's a guard and Maria's brother?

(Gabrielle's POV)

"Mother," I say, seeing Artemis.

She doesn't face me as she continues to watch the river, the same river where she found me. I get the feeling of sadness, what do I not remember that is keeping me here and not with my love?

"Mother?"

"I remember that day too well," Artemis says. "I wish I could forget."

I stand there in silence, wanting her to continue. What is she talking about? Is it what happened to Yami?

"I was at my celebration in Thebes but I wanted nothing more then to see you and my grandson," Artemis tells me. "As the fest began, Talia ran in with grave news, The Thief King is attacking Egypt and the royal family needs help. I left with the Amazons and helped them get to Egypt faster, when we arrived, everything was covered in smoke and fire. Hippolyta and I instantly went to find you and when we did you begged us to protect your son, but we refused to leave you. The battle was long when the Thief King was able to get your husband down, that's when time slowed. I turn to see you taking off towards the two men as the sword was brought down. The sight was horrible, the blade cut through your back and out of your chest."

Suddenly I feel a pain in my chest as the scene flashes in my eyes, now I remember. The battle, Bakura...he was the one who attacked to take over the throne. He was going to kill Atem but I took the attack and I was killed. My eyes widen...Atem...that's Yami's name! I remember!

"Mother, I have to help him," I say.

She turns to look at me, I see the tears in her eyes but she nods. Suddenly the scene changes.

(Regular POV. The Battle. Note-Yami knows his name now)

"Die Pharaoh!" Bakura yells.

"Atem!" Everyone calls.

Before anyone could react, Selene appears in front of Atem, but it is different. She blocks the attack instead of being injured, this shocks past and present Bakura, that's when he sees it. Her hair is curlier, her skin a bit lighter, it is not Selene but Gabrielle.

"Not this time Bakura," Gabrielle hisses.

"Y-you're..." Selene starts.

"I am you from another time, now take my hand so we can fight," Gabrielle says, holding her hand back that isn't holding the sword.

Selene nods and takes her hand, there is a flash of light and Gabrielle and Selene become one. Atem moves and hits Bakura back, Maria, Seto and Joey share a look, maybe they can do the same? They look at their past selves, they nod and join hands, each becoming one. They all go to face off the thieves and win the war. Yugi fights alongside Atem to defeat Bakura once and for all. Skylar calls on the Blue-eyes White Dragon to help them fight as Selene calls on the guardian spirits in the stars. In the end, Bakura is defeated and the thieves are arrested.

"We did it," Tea smiles.

"We did," Skylar smiles.

"So can you guys...like unfuse or whatever?" Tristan asks.

Seto, Joey, Maria and Gabrielle look at one another and try to focus, but nothing happens.

"W-we can't," Jono says.

"History is heading the course it should have before," Artemis says, walking up.

"Mother? What do you mean?" Selene asks.

"No one was supposed to die in this battle, but all of you but Seto had. Now all of you can live your lives like you should have. Mana and Mahad are no longer bound to the monsters and you all have a bright future ahead of you."

"But...what are we going to do about their families in our time?" Tea asks.

"Time is a funny thing," Artemis says. "You will have to go home and find out."

(Later that day. Back in the present.)

"You all did it!" Marik smiles.

"Yea, we did," Tristan replies sadly.

"Wait, where is my brother?" Mokuba and Serenity ask.

"And my daughters?" Pegasus adds.

"T-they are in the past," Tea says. "They all stayed to live out their lives that they missed."

That shocks all of them, they all chose to stay? Why? They all go silent and make their way out of the tomb. As they walk, they see new hyroglifics showing them the new history that was made. They soon make it out into the sun where they see people they do not expect.

Cliffhanger! I am evil :D I really am happy for all of my readers, I am glad that you all are enjoying this story. I may upload two more chapters or just one. I have to see. So, see you all in the next chapter!
