As Shaolin slow fingered the blade of the dagger, a horrible snow storm picked up outside. Suddenly the lights went out causing Shaolin to drop the dagger, slicing the palm of her hand in the process. Muttering something in Egyptian she went and lit a few lamps that she had in the library leaving a trial of blood that flowed from her hand as she did. Now that she had a little light she picked up her dagger, now covered in her blood, and sat back down in a corner and stared at it. Her crimson colored blood shone like fire when the lamp light hit it. Shaolin sighed deeply and listened to the storm outside.
Over at Yugi's the power also went out. Yugi was going upstairs, to do some homework , just as the lights went out causing him to lose his footing and fall backwards down the stairs. Yami, who was going upstairs to see if Yugi needed any help, was very surprise to see his aibou falling backwards down the stairs. Yugi bump into Yami and the two of them ended up in a heap at the bottom. After untangling themselves and making sure nothing was injured or broken they starting laughing. Yami got up and got some candles and placed on the table in the living room. Yugi then came in and the two of them played a duel monster game to pass the time.
Over at Ryou's, the power was also out. Ryou was in the middle of finishing his math homework when the lights out. 'Ok Bakura what did you do now?' He thought because the last time the lights went out Bakura had decided that he wanted to know what the inside of the wiring looked like and decided to use the hydro wires located in front of the house for his little experiment. The first place Ryou looked was in Bakura's room where to his surprise he found Bakura staring at the storm outside.
"Does the phone still work?" He asked not even turning around.
"I'm not sure." Ryou answered. "I'll go check." He left the room and went downstairs and picked of the phone and to his relief he heard the dial tone. He brought the phone back upstairs. (A/N- The phone has a really, really, really long cord like mine.) "Yeah Bakura the phone still works." Ryou told him.
"Good I wanna phone Shaolin if that is ok?" He asked turning around. Ryou looked at his Yami. He dark chocolate brown eyes instead of being harsh and cold like Ryou was use to seeing, they were warm and full of worry. He just wants to make sure she is ok. Ryou thought and handed over the phone.
"Thank you aibou."
"You're welcome." Ryou said and left the room.
Shaolin was still sitting on the floor when her phone rang. 'I wonder who is calling me at this time of night.' She wondered as she got up. She made her way though her dark house to the kitchen where the phone was, leaving a trail of blood that still flowed with ease from her hand, the dagger still in her other hand.
"Hello?"
"Hi Shaolin, it's me Bakura."
"Oh hi Bakura what would you like?"
"I just wanted to make sure that you were ok. I was just worried because there is a storm outside and our power just went out."
"I'm fine Bakura. My power went out to. Other then that I'm fine."
"Ok I'm glad to hear that. Well I got to go now Ryou wants to phone Yugi and see if his power went out to. I'll phone you later."
"Ok Bakura I'll talk to you later then." Shaolin hung the phone on its receiver and left, the phone was now covered in her blood. As she made her way back to the library her doorbell rang. I wonder who would be out in a storm like this. She wondered and opened the door.
"We finally found you Shaolon. Now we can have our revenge." A deep voice said. Suddenly there was a flash of light and Shaolin was gone.
"So how's Shaolin?" Ryou asked.
"She's fine, her power went out too." Bakura said. "She sounded a little strange though."
"Strange, how?"
"She didn't sound like her normal cheery self." He said, sounding a little worried.
"I'm sure she's fine Bakura." Ryou said with a confident tone.
"I guess your right." Bakura said. "Aren't you going to call Yugi?"
"He's probably sleeping."
"Then call Yami he never sleeps."
"Ok." Ryou said and dialed Yugi's number. After waiting a few minutes he heard someone pick up the phone.
"Oww, so that is where the extra box of candles went. Hello Moto Residents."
"Hello Yugi, I'd thought you'd be asleep by now."
"Hi Ryou no I can't sleep so me and Yami and having some fun."
"How? Didn't your power go out?"
"Yeah we have no power. So you don't need power to have a pillow fight or OWWW! I'm no the phone Yami that wasn't fair."
"What happened?"
"Yami hit me with a pillow."
"Oh."
"Yeah. Well I got to go and get Yami back. Maybe I'll phone you back later k?"
"Sure no problem. Bye"
"Bye" Yugi hung up the phone.
"Well?" Bakura asked.
"Yugi's power is out too." Ryou replied and suddenly he started laughing.
"What's so funny?" Bakura asked puzzled. He wanted to now what his aibou was laughing at.
"Yami... and... Yugi.. were... having... a... pillow... fight... before... I. called." Ryou told him between laughs. Bakura stood puzzled for a moment before he too started laughing at the thought of the pharaoh having a pillow fight. Then he grabbed one of the pillows off his bed.
"Hey Ryou."
"What?" Ryou asked and looked at Bakura and got hit with a pillow.
"GOT YA!"
"THIS MEANS WAR!" Ryou shrieked and grabbed a pillow too.
After a few hours everyone (Yami, Yugi, Bakura and Ryou) were asleep.

It was quite a few hours before Shaolin regained consciousness. 'Where am I' She wondered and tried to moved but found she couldn't. Her hands were tied together above her head and her feet were also tied together. 'Damn it.' She thought. She looked around but really couldn't see anything in the dark. Just as she was trying to figure out where she was a door at the far end of the room opened and Shaolin could see where she was. She recognized the place at once. It was a special temple that the Pharaoh's high priests had built to destroy the shadow games. At one end was the alter where the chosen one would have been. Shaolin was tried just behind the alter.
"So you've finally come too." A deep voice snickered. Shaolin recognized it as the same one she heard when she opened her door.
"What do you want?" Shaolin asked.
"You'll soon find out my dear Shaolon."
"How do you know that name?"
"All in good time." The voice said and closed the door leaving Shaolin in the darkness.

School went by really quit for Yugi and Ryou the next day. The had made arrangements to meet up with their Yami's right after school. At lunch Yugi and Ryou had noticed that Shaolin wasn't at school so they had phoned her house and had gotten no answer so Ryou told Yugi what Bakura had told him about Shaolin not sounding right when he called her last night. This had worried Yugi, so he had called Yami who told him to wait for him after school. After Yugi finished calling Yami Ryou had called Bakura who had basically told him the same thing. So now they were sitting on the steps in front of the school waiting for their Yamis to show up. It didn't take long. Now the kids at school knew about Bakura because he had walk to school with Ryou a few times but none of them had ever seen Yami so when he showed up and walked up to Yugi everyone just started. Yugi started to feel a little uncomfortable and Yami sensed.
"What you've never seen brothers before?" He said loudly. Everyone stopped staring.
"Come on lets go." Bakura said quickly. Everyone knew that he was worried about Shaolin. Everyone ran over to her house with Bakura in the lead. When they got there they found the front door wide open. When the entered they noticed the blood trail. They followed the blood trail back to the library and found the book where the dagger had been. Suddenly there was a bright light and a male and female stood before the group. No one could really see the features of the two.
"Ah so the Pharaoh has come to look for his sister." The male said. He voice deep.
"Yes and so has the tomb robber." The female replied. Her voice as cold as ice.
"What did you do with Shaolin?" Yami demanded.
"Oh her. Don't worry she's fine for now." The female said.
"Take us to her now." Bakura yelled.
"Eventually. In the meantime maybe you should catch up on your reading." The female said and with another bight flash of light the two were gone but where they had been was a book.
"What is this?" Yugi asked and picked up the book and placed it on the table. The book opened up to a section.
"What dose it say?" Ryou asked since the book was written Egyptian he couldn't read it.
"Here I'll read it." Bakura said and picked up the book.
"IT WAS SAID THAT TO COMPLETELY DESTROY THE SHADOW GAMES TWO THINGS ARE REQUIED. 1 IS THE BLOOD OF THE ONE CHOSEN BY RA. THE CHOSEN ONE IS NORMALLY A GIRL AND THE CHOSEN ON IS NORMALLY BORN IN TO THE ROYAL FAMILY. THE 2ND ITEM REQUIED IS THE ONE BORN UNDER THE SIGN OF RA. NORMALLY THESE TWO CHOSEN ONES ARE RELATED. THE COMPLETE THE CLOSING THE ONE CHOSEN BY RA MUST USE THE SCARED DAGGER AND SLICE EITHER THE WRIST OR THE THROAT. AS THE CHOSEN ONES BLEEDS THE ONE BORN UNDER THE SIGN OF RA MUST RECIT THE FOLLOWING WORDS:
'AS THE GODS HAVE ASKED THE BLOOD OF THE ONE HAS BEEN SPILT. AS THE GODS HAVE ASKED THE BLOOD OF THE ONE HAS BEEN OFFERED. AS THE GODS HAVE ASKED THE LIFE OF THE ONE HAS ENDED. NOW AS THE GODS HAVE PROMISED THE SHADOW GAMES ARE DESTROIED.'
THE RITUAL IS ONLY COMPLETED WHEN THE CHONSEN ONE LIFE IS GONE. BUT THE RITUAL MAY BE RUIN IF THE CHOSEN ONE IS KILLED. THE RITUAL ONLY WORKS IF BOTH CHOSEN ONES ARE TOGETHER AND THE BLOOD HAS BEEN SPILT WITH THE SCARED DAGGER."
Everyone in the room went white.
"Yami what sign were you born under?" Bakura asked quietly and slowly.
"Ra."
"How many others were born under that sign?"
"Only me."
Bakura and Yami looked at each other. They had just realized something. Yugi and Ryou were still trying to figure it out. Bakura sat down in a chair.
"It is ok Bakura. We won't let anyone hurt her." Yami told him.
"I hope you're right Yami. I don't want to lose her." Bakura answered.
"Maybe we should all stay at my house." Yugi said looking at Yami who nodded.
"Let's go." Ryou said. Everyone left Shaolin's house. Bakura had the book under his arm. He looked at the darkening sky I will find you Shaolin. I won't let anyone hurt you. He promised.
