Thanks for the reviews and for reading my history...
CHAPTER 13:
Silence… and darkness surround him. He didn't know what had happened, what amount of time had passed… he didn't know anything. He wanted to move but he couldn't feel his body at all… Soon, memories came flying to him and episodes of his past life… all the information was to overwhelming that he thought his head would explode! When all was there, inside of his head, he felt a strong headache and he yelled a little… then all was calm again and he was lost into a hole of shadows…
Duke, Marik and Joey helped Yami into his room and lay him on the bed, hoping that he would wake soon. Anzu, Isis and Bakura follow them silently towards the room. When they get there, each one took a sit. Anzu sat on the corner of the bed besides Yami; Isis, Marik and Bakura sat on the couch in front of the bed, Duke and Joey just leaned besides the window staring at the limp form of his unconscious friend.
-What had you done to him? –asked Anzu staring to Bakura
-We just helped him to clean his soul –he said staring directly into her eyes.
Anzu just stared to Yami who was peacefully breathing and the millennium item resting softly on his chest.
-He said you were two of his priests, right? –asked Joey
-Yes, that's true –responded Marik looking at Joey
-You see… We discovered that we are in fact priests too –he said signaling to Duke and to Anzu – but… we don't have the items you had –he said looking at his items
- It is because Seto had took advantage on us… he already discovered three of the items, including the one that is rightful his. Those must be your items –he said lowering his face
-Wait a minute –said Duke –do you mean Seto is a priest too?
-Yeah, he is the dark one. Set… -said Isis –but luckily, we found an item that has no owner yet –she said while getting out of his purse the millennium necklace –I think this want to be hold by you –she said staring at Anzu.
Isis stood up and walked towards her with the item on her hands, she extended it for Anzu to take and she took it. She admired it a few minutes and then put it on her neck. The item immediately started to shine and Yami's puzzle started to shine as well. All were startled because just the two items were shining. The ring and eye were calm.
Anzu just stared to her item when she had a strange vision.

She saw a great palace that stood in the center of a vast kingdom. Inside of the palace, in the royal gardens she saw two teenagers running through the flowers and around a fountain that was in the middle. She just stared with wide eyes at the girl, it was her! In some strange clothing and the boy was Yami in clothes worthy of a prince! They were chasing each other in a kind of 'run that I catch' game. They were laughing and enjoying each others company.
-Anzu! I will catch you! You are too slow for me!! –yelled Yami running behind her very close.
-Oh really? Why don't you try then! JaJaJa –she laughed and continue zigzagging through the flowers of the garden
-Watch me! –he yelled and ran fast
He caught her by her shoulders but like he approached her very fast, the impact made that Anzu tripped and fell on a soft place full of grass. Yami fell too but ended on top of her. They both laughed at the situation but then the laugh faded and followed a moment of awkward silence.
Yami just looked at her with his red eyes outlined with kohl that where expressing in the moment a lot of love and care for her. She too looked at him with her light blue eyes that shone brightly by a deep love for him.
He couldn't waste the opportunity that was presenting before him and he leaned to kiss her beautiful red lips. She reciprocated the kiss too and embraced him around his neck rubbing passionately his hair and kissing him wildly. He rubbed her face and hair with his hands and started to kiss her cheek and neck. Anzu made him turn around and now she was above him on the grass without stop kissing him. Yami caught her hand interlacing his fingers with hers and with the other hand he caressed her back without stop kissing her on the mouth. He whispered in her ear a soft 'I love you' and didn't let her answer because he locked her mouth in his.
They were so concentrated in kissing, touching and biting each other that neither of the two heard footsteps approaching them. When they realized, it was too late. Pharaoh Akununkanon stood there watching the scene with crossed arms. They immediately broke apart and lifted up off the grass.
-What was that? –asked pharaoh a lot annoyed
They didn't respond and just looked to the ground
-Yami, follow me, now!! –he commanded in a strong voice walking away
Yami just looked to Anzu with a sad look and whispered without sound 'don't worry' as he walked off to obey his father.
Then Anzu couldn't see anymore…
-Anzu? Anzu! Wake Up!- Duke gently shook her
-What? What? –she mumbled a little disoriented
-You spaced out for a brief moment –he said staring at her
-Ah, ehm, I'm okay –she reassured him staring at Yami again who was still asleep.
-Are you sure? –he asked
-Yeah, I'm fine –she said remembering in her memory the vision of her and Yami she had a few minutes ago.
-Well, the necklace has accept you –Isis said at her
-Yeah, I think –she said staring at her item
A low groan was heard and they turned to look at Yami. He had a troubled expression and it seams that he was going to wake up any time now.
Seto was having some trouble with finding the other items. He couldn't believe yet that after all those years they had only found three. He was surrounded of incompetents and he didn't like that. Suddenly the rod that was on his belt started to shine. He took it and concentrated on what it was going to show him. He sensed that the pharaoh was releasing a strong amount of energy. He predicted immediately that it was of no use had sending those men if the pharaoh was that fully awake.
He felt that all the items had already been found, but just two remained without holders, also he was sure that something had happened to pharaoh now because he didn't sense anymore the thick dark energy he sensed a few moments ago.
-"What had happened?"-he thought as he commanded mentally to the rod to look for the energy of the puzzle. He couldn't sense anything.
-Something is wrong sir? –asked Lot approaching him.
-Your men were useless, the pharaoh had awoken and the remained items were already found –he said putting his rod into his belt again
-Now, what are we going to do? –he asked
-Prepare the table, soon, we will have some company and finally I will claim what is mine –he said walking off and leaving Lot to his duties.
In Yami's mind the vision that Anzu was having continued.
-Why don't you obey when I tell you something? –pharaoh asked him almost yelling
-Father, you can't –
-Of course I can!! I'm your father and the pharaoh! You must do all I said! –he screamed at him with a thick voice
-I can't obey this one… -he said in a low voice gazing at the floor
-What!! –he asked to his son grabbing him strongly by his shoulders
-I… love her –he said staring directly into his father eyes
-You can't! She is going to be a priestess! She is forbidden! –he yelled shaking him
-I can't do anything, its what I felt… -he said staring at the wall besides him
-Well, -he said releasing his grip on him –if you can't control your feelings I made a decision –he said turning around- Anzu would not stay here and definitively I would not allow her to be priestess. She will be sold like a slave and you will never know about her existence, never! –he said sitting on his desk
-Father!! You can't do that! Please, don't! - Yami yelled while approaching at his desk and hitting it strongly with his fist.
-Well, I will not do it if you promise me never think about her again and stay away off her. If you do this, I will let the girl continue living here and preparing for her duty. But, if you don't do it, I take her out of here immediately and I will sell her like a slave, is that understood??- he exclaimed looking at his son who had just lowered his head
-Yes… -he said in a whisper
-I don't hear you! –he said in a high voice
-I said Yes!! –he screamed at the top of his lungs with rage while running out of his father's presence and into his room
When he got there, he just throws himself on the bed and stayed crying on his cushion all rest of the afternoon. The following days, he ignored completely to Anzu trying to not pay any attention to the sharp pain always accompanied him every time he saw her and knowing that he could just do that, see her. Years passed and the pharaoh decided it was the turn of Yami to rule with his six priests besides him.
He was sitting on his throne room looking to the six priests that were surrounded him, and one of them was Anzu who now was holding the millennium necklace and was staring at him with a sad expression. He could not hold the pressure of her stare so he rose of his sit and walked off. Anzu just saw him and decided to go look for him. She founded him walking fast by the halls towards his room. She quickened her pace and reached him. She grabbed his arm with her hand. He turned around to see her, his heart started to pound faster but he didn't let her realized it
-What do you want? –he asked coldly in a business like tone
-Why after all these years you continue ignoring me? Talk to me, please! –she said tightening her grip on his arm
-Please… Anzu, let me go –he said in a low voice trying to release his arm
-No! No until you tell me why suddenly you didn't care all we lived together! It was very important to me, but I see it was not the same for you! –she said grabbing his face
-Anzu is not what you think… I just… can't… you're a priestess and I'm the pharaoh, don't you understand?! –he said while grabbing her face and leaning her against the wall
-Do you remember that day in the garden? That moment is what I most treasure in my heart! I wished that moment would last forever because in your arms I feel save and loved! –She said with teary eyes - I will renounce to this duty so we could stay together. I still love you Yami. –she said planting him a kiss which he reciprocated just for a brief moment then he pulled away
-You can't do that. It's your family custom; you can get in trouble with them, I don't want you in trouble because of me…-he sighed and whispered in her ear –Please… don't make this any harder than already is… please, just…go –he said releasing her and walking fast into his room
(Suddenly the scene changed)
He was now in the dark chamber surrounded by cloaked figures with daggers and he was holding up the millennium puzzle. He turned to look at her.
-'Forgive me Anzu… I never stopped loving you'-he thought and the room was covered by a strong light.
Yami shot opened his eyes. He was covered by sweat and was shaking a little. He was a little disoriented of were he was. He looked around and recognized his room. The window showed that it was already night.
He lifted and took a sit position on the bed; he was alone in the room. How he got there? He started to think what could he remember and suddenly all the memories came like a shot.
He remembered the battle against the men, all the dark magic he released against them, remembered Anzu being bothered by that man, two men and a woman with two millennium items, he still could feel the pain he felt in his chest when they were chanting, then blue eyes looking at him before he passed out.
He put reflexively a hand on his chest.
Then all the memories and the vision of his past live. He remembered all. It was like he had wake up of a long sleep. He felt complete and not turn apart.
He got up off the bed and walked to the door; he opened gently and poked his head into the corridor to see if there was someone. He continued walking until the stairs. He came down the stairs into the lounge. He still could feel very little amount of energy on the lounge. He continued walking towards the living room and there he found them. Anzu and Isis were sleeping on the couch, Duke, Joey and Marik were sleeping on the carpet floor and Bakura was very comfortable on a big chair. He just smiled a little to see that scene and decided to let them sleep. He turned around but tripped with a little table beside the entrance to the living room that had a big vase making a slight noise. He turned around to see if he had disturbed them but all were asleep, so he continued walking towards the kitchen, he wanted some water for his dry throat.
Anzu and the others had decided to let him on his room and take a rest on the living room. She went asleep almost immediately after she lay on the couch with Isis. A few hours had passed and her body started to wake up again. She had rested enough, besides she didn't need much sleep to feel again with energy. She opened her eyes when a slight noise was heard in the lounge. She stayed on the couch for a moment and decided to go check if everything was alright. She rose and put her sandals. Then she walked towards the lounge and looked all the places to see something. She spotted a light on one room and walked towards it. She didn't remember that anyone had turn on any light. She arrived and realized it was the kitchen. She peeked inside and saw him sitting on the table with a glass of water on his hand and looking at it. She stopped without knowing what to do. Yami felt her presence as soon as she poked her head through the half open door.
-I'm sorry if I woke you –he said drinking his glass of water
-No, you didn't wake me, I was already awake –she said entering in the kitchen and taking a glass of water too. Then she sat besides him on the table.
-How are you feeling? –she asked looking at him
-I had just a slight headache and a little of pain in the chest –he said putting a hand on his chest
-Do you remember something? –she asked
He raised his eyes and stared directly at her beautiful blue eyes. He couldn't take off his head that vision he had, and all the memories he now had of their relationship back there. It seems that the history was repeating itself.
-Yes, I remember everything –he said to her grabbing her hand on the table
-How is everything? –she kept looking at him
-All that happened here, and part of my past live –he said gazing at the millennium necklace on her neck
Anzu noted his look on her item.
-Isis gave it to me while you were out. –she said remembering the intimate moment they were having in the vision, she blushed.
He didn't say anything and just stared to her eyes without saying something. She stared at him too and saw his eyes expressing so many emotions. It appears that he wanted to say something to her.
-Do you want to say something? –she asked to him and he simply smiled.
-I just was thinking of how beautiful you are.
