Hi

The computer shut down and deleted this chapter so I had to

Thank you everyone for the reviews

Chapter 5 Pharaoh

Yami sat on a log, waiting impatiently on Yoh's friends to come. Yugi had curled up in his lap a long time ago, and nuzzled him frequently.

//How much longer do we have to wait?// Yami asked. Yugi looked up at him.

/I don't know…Amidamaru have to find the three of them first, and then they have to get here. Consider that they aren't at the same place, so it'll take him awhile to find them, even if he's a ghost/ Yugi replied, yawning. He jumped down and stretched his tired limbs. /We'll know when they come here/

//We might do so, but I still wish they'd hurry it up// Yami said. Yugi looked up at him.

/Do not worry, Yami. As soon as they arrive we'll be off to Egypt/ Yugi said hopefully. Yami nodded and stood up. Yugi started to walk towards the others. /Let's enjoy the weather in the meanwhile, I haven't been outside before I ran away, so I really enjoy this/ Yugi then noticed a butterfly, and began to jump after it. Yami laughed, being very amused by his actions.

//You're very optimistic, little one. It's hard to believe that you've been through so many hardships//

/Well, I can't really hate anyone. Besides the past is in the past, I can't change it even if I'd want to. My hardships and sorrows formed me into who I am today/ Yugi replied, while still chasing the butterfly.

//You can say that again, little one. I might not know how it is to have an abusive mother, but I know how it feels to lose someone. My parents died when I were five years old. I've lived with Grandpa since then. I still miss them, even if it's hard for me to remember them very well// Yami explained. Yugi had stopped and now he sat with his ears laid back and looking sadly up at him.

/I'm sorry…/ he said. Yami smiled and bent down to take him into his arms. Yugi snuggled into his chest, as an attempt to comfort.

//It's alright, I'm not grieving anymore. I know they're in a better place// Yami said. Then he heard a rustle in the bushes. Yugi looked with wide eyes, ready to make a move if they're in danger. Then a boy and a man emerged.

The boy had blue and black hair and long sleeved, cream colored sweater, and shorts. He had a snow board on his back. The man had a white suit, with a purple shirt. His hair was black and he had black beard. He had a tree katana in his hands.

Yami took a step back and his body language became very defensive. Yugi looked back and forth between the two strangers.

"Hi, you haven't seen a boy and a girl around here do you?" the blue haired boy asked. Yami raised an eye brow.

"Well, that depends if you were sent here by someone or not" he replied coldly. Yugi nuzzled him. Yami turned his gaze down at him.

/I think they're Yoh's friends. The blue one has a Koropokkur as spirit. They never go with evil humans/ Yami nodded and looked at them again.

"The little one is right. You are Yoh's friends, right?" Yami asked. They nodded. Yami turned on his heels. "Then follow me" He took them to the others and went over to Yoh. "Two of your friends' just arrived" Yoh looked aver and smiled widely.

"Horohoro and Ryu, it's been awhile since I saw you" he greeted. Horohoro laughed together with Ryu and Yoh. Anna rolled her eyes. When they finally calmed down, Yami thought it was about time to get serious.

"Where's the third of you?" he asked. They looked at him.

"You mean Ren? He'd be here soon. I'm sure Amidamaru's found him by now" Horohoro replied. Yami turned his eyes towards the road. He had this strange feeling that something was about to happen. Yugi looked there as well, tilting his head.

/What are you looking at?/ Yugi asked. Yami glanced down at his. He shook his head.

//Nothing... I just...//

/Go on/

//I just have this weird feeling// Yami explained. //Like someting's going to happen//

/I know what you mean. I feel it as well. You could call it a sixth sense/ Yugi said. Yami nodded. Yugi nuzzled him. /But let's not worry about it now, if there's someting coming, we'll take care of it when it appear. I'm sure my mother's sent something else, that's nearby right now/

Yami sat down, and Yugi sat comfortably in his knee. Both kept their eyes and ears alert for any sign of intruders. Yoh looked at them, as well as Anna. Horohoro and Ryu introduced themselves to Bakura, Ryou, Malik and Marik, which ended with Bakura almost killing Ryu, as he flirted with Ryou, thinking he was a girl. Marik and Malik had to hold him back, with Ryou trying to calm his boyfriend down.

Then Yugi and Yami heard something. Then Amidamaru and a boy came on the road. The boy had a kwan dao in his hand, and a suitcase in the other. Yugi's eyes widened as both he and Yami noticed something red on the kwan dao.

"So it's here you are" he said. Yoh turned his head towards him.

"Ren, I started to wonder if you'd got lost" Yoh said, cheering. Ren glared at him.

"Well, I would've getten here earlier, if it wasn't for some damn zombiedragon. It was nearby, and headed this way. When Amidamaru told me that it looked like the ones that you two defeated earlier, I had to stop it" Ren stated. Yugi shivered.

"Yugi?" Yami asked aloud. Yugi looked up into his eyes.

/That's one of my stepfather's dragons. Only he has zombiedragons/ Yami pulled Yugi closer as he heard it.

"Seto, could we go now?" Yami asked. Seto looked over at him, and nodded. Ren, Horohoro and Ryu looked at them.

"Go? Go where?" Horohoro asked. Yami looked at him, and he took a step back. Yami's eyes were narrowed and looked like they're glowing.

"To Egypt" he stated simply. Then he followed Kaiba, Jou, Anna and the others. Yoh smiled.

"Sorry, I guess Amidamaru forgot to tell you about the trip, huh?" he asked. Horohoro nodded. "Well, we're going to help that Spirit beast to find a Pharaoh, so we better go after the others before they leave without us" Yoh said before running after the others. Ren sighed and then he and the other two Shamans followed.

8 hours later – Egypt, Cairo

When Kaiba's private jet landed, they went out into the burning sun. Yami had changed into more suitable pants, jeans shorts. Marik, Malik and Bakura had changed into traditional Egyptian clothings, as they had grown up there. As they stepped into the airport, Yugi's ears peerked up. He turned his head quickly towards the right. He saw a man standing further away. Yugi's symbol glowed a little. When the man began to walk away, Yugi jumped down from Yami's arms, and ran after. Yami and the others were od course right after him. Yugi ran until he was face to face with the man. He was Egyptian and had blue, pupiless eyes.

"I see that you've come for your darkness, little Shadow beast. I am Shadi, I'm the Pharaoh's protector" he said. Yugi nodded.

/Yes, I've come for my darkness. Could you be so kind and take us to his tomb?/ Yugi asked. Shadi looked at the others, his eys scanning them, but not even showing any sign of emotions or thoughts.

"Of course, Chosen one. I'll take you there. The Pharaoh's been waiting for you a very long time, and I doubt that he wants to wait any longer" Shadi replied. Yugi happily jumped into Yami's arms again. Shadi took them outside where two cars waited. They got inside and then they headed towards the Valley of the Kings.

After a couple of hours they found themselves at the opening of a tomb. Shadi opened a secret passage to it and they went inside, but not before closing it behind them. Yugi jumped down and took the lead, with Shadi and Yami behind him, and the others behind them. Yugi led them through traps and snakes without anyone being harmed. Yami had a strange feeling in his stomach all the time, as if he was suffocating. When they came to a door Yugi let them open it as he couldn't. Then they entered the last hidden room, and walked over a bridge. Yugi's eyes lit up and he ran towards something in the middle of the room. Then a purple light blinded them. Before them the Dark Magician stood, and glared at them. Yugi stood in front of them.

"You've came this far. This is the first and only time in millanias someone's been this far. Who are you and what are you doing here?" he asked.

/We're here to free my darkness, the Pharaoh. I'm Yugi, his hikari. I know you know what I'm talking about, Dark Magician/ Yugi said. The mage looked at him, his eyes softened.

"You remind of the Pharaoh when he was younger. Of course I know what you're talking about, hikari no Pharaoh. I'm sad to say that the Pharaoh's not here anymore"

/WHAT?!/ Yugi screamed. The mage flinced, together with everyone else. Yami was the only one who didn't look shocked.

"Well, I hadn't finished. He's here, but yet he isn't" Yugi looked at him.

/Is this a riddle?/ he asked. The mage sniggered.

"No, I'm just tellign you that the Pharaoh's soul isn't here anymore, but the living is here"He said, looking over at Yami. Yami looked back. "You remember, don't you?"

"What is he talking about, Pharaoh?" Marik asked. Everyone looked at him. Yami clenched his teeth.

"You don't know how right you are when you're calling me that Marik..." he replied. A black light blinded everyone and in the next moment Yami's clothes, hair and skin had changed. He had a white linen shirt and top, with a blue cloth. He had a gold belt and lots of gold jewlery, such as earrings, bracelets, necklace, and crown. His skin was tanned and his hair was more wilder. Yugi's eyes bulged out. Yami sighed. "I'm Pharaoh Atemu Yami, but I'm also the Dark Spirit beast"
