CHAPTER 15:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A GOLDEN HEART
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sun shined brightly through the windows of the lounge. There was any sign of what had happened that night. All in the mansion was so calm that the very silence could be heard.
Joey got up of the bed rubbing his sleepy eyes with the back of his hand. He stayed there a minute looking at his surroundings. All that had happened returned to his brain and realized he was back again into reality. He still couldn't believe all that had happened to him and to his friends. It was all so rare and exciting at the same time. He was very prepared for all that was to came, he wanted to help his best friend, in all the ways he could. And he will do it.
Joey rose off the bed and walked towards the stairs and into the kitchen for a glass of water. He really was very thirsty, so he took a huge glass of cold water. The water traveling down his throat felt like heaven. Joey exited the kitchen and walked towards the front door for some fresh morning air. When he arrived there, he saw Yami already awake and seated on the entrance, where the stairs were.
Joey stopped behind him and stayed staring at his back for several minutes, then Yami broke up the moment.
-Hi Joey, good morning. –he said keeping his stare at the front watching the birds that crossed the blue sky.
-Hi, Yami, how are you? –he asked approaching him and taking a sit next to him.
-Well, considering all this… -he paused smiling weakly –I'm fine –Joey smiled with pity
-If I can do anything to make you feel better…---he was cut off by Yami who moved in a negative way his head and stared directly at his eyes for the first time since Joey arrived there.
-With just stay here besides me, you had do a lot… -he said to his best friend –thanks
-You don't have to thank me, we are all in this, remember I am a priest? Well, I'll be right behind you. –he patted Yami's back gently.
Yami just smiled to his friend determination and continue staring at the front, into nothing, when suddenly his expression changed from calm to a pained one.
-"Why this is so intense? It is not normal…"
-What's wrong? –Joey asked standing up concerned
-Argh…It's that… damn hole… –he said clutching his chest strongly and closing his eyes at the time he lay down on the floor by the intense pain.
-I will call the others!!- Joey almost yelled and took off running inside the house screaming like a madman for the others to wake up.
Anzu opened her eyes slowly because of Joey's shouting and immediately noticed Yami was no with her. She stood up and walked towards the lounge. She could see Joey jumping of three to four steps of the stair to get more rapidly to the second floor.
-"What's wrong with him?"-she thought and turned her head towards the exit, then, she understood his hurry.
-"Yami!" –she ran towards him, kneeled besides him and lifted his head putting it in her lap.
-Anzu… -he whispered –Don't worry about me, this is temporary. "I hope so"-he thought closing his eyes again.
-You're sweating! And you are so pale! –she passed her hand by his face feeling impotent for been unable to do something for him.
-Marik! Isis! Ryou! Duke!!! Wake your lazy ass up! Yami is suffering! Come on, wake up! –Joey yelled at the time he ran from one bed to another shaking every one of them.
-What! –exclaimed Duke and Ryou at the same time while the others rubbed their eyes.
-Come on! He is outside laying on the floor! –he exclaimed running again towards the entrance, the others followed suit, the dream leaving them immediately.
They arrived and saw Anzu holding Yami's head. He had his eyes closed, paleness covered his face and her right hand was clutching wildly his chest.
-Pharaoh! –exclaimed in unison all of them except Joey and Anzu.
Ryou approached him and took his left hand in his, and mumbled something unknown to the language of Anzu, Joey and Duke. Suddenly the color returned to Yami's face and he opened his eyes feeling a lot better. He stopped clutching his chest and stared to all the pairs of eyes which were looking back at him. He rose off the floor with the help of Anzu and stood there still staring at them with seriousness.
-Thanks, Ryou for your energy –he thanked smiling to him, Ryou just nodded his head.
-This is just a little proof that we are running out of time, we need to arrive Egypt as soon as possible –he said –Duke, please, call the plain. We must hurry.
-Ok –he said and went to the phone and dialed the number of the personal pilot.
-All of you follow me. –he said and started to walk outside the mansion and through the huge garden.
-Where are we going Yami? –asked Anzu walking closely behind him
-To wait the plain, here –he smiled at the amaze expression of his love.
Anzu widened her eyes. They were in front of a very big green area with a runway adorned with twinkling lights and very beautiful flowers which were not only at the sides of the runway but in all the green and fresh grass.
-Amazing! –she exclaimed and soon she heard a loud noise getting more and more close
-That was fast –murmured Yami hugging Anzu and lifting a hand against his face for the violent air that started to blew because of the plain.
-Here it is –said Duke running to catch with them –Hmm that was fast –he exclaimed while running again towards the cockpit to give some orders to the pilot.
-Come on. –Yami said and walked towards the plain which had already the gate opened for them to enter.
One by one entered in the Jet and in no time all were comfortable seated in their respective seats. Duke was in a one-person seat in front of Yami and Anzu who were in the first row of the right, Marik and Isis were in the first row but of the left and Bakura and Joey were behind Yami and Anzu. The voice of the pilot was heard among the plain's noise.
-Lock your seatbelt, we are going to fly. –he screamed at the time a red light with the seatbelt signal appeared on the ceiling.
All did what he said and the plain took fly in the beautiful sky heading towards the Cairo and into their destiny. The fly was very calm, all deep in thought by what would happen when they got there. Anzu, in particular was very worried for what could happen there, she didn't want anything bad happened to the man she now was sure belonged her heart. She turned her head slightly to the side and saw him staring out of the window with his hands into fists on his legs. She could see he was thinking of what would he do when they got there. Anzu was going to ask him when someone asked before her.
-Yami? What are you thinking on doing when we get there? –asked Duke and as soon as he said the question, the rest of them turned their heads towards the conversation and started to listen intently. Joey and Bakura inclined their heads to the front to see what Yami would answer.
Yami broke his stare from the window and looked at Duke directly. He simply decided to tell him the truth without any kind of anaesthesia. He let out a sigh.
-I'm going to fight Set alone, as I did in the past, then I will contain again that dark energy. After all that I will shatter the puzzle. –he finished and lowered his gaze.
-That sounds like a plan! We will help you to defeat the bad guy save the world, and then we can return back to our normal lives and celebrate! –exclaimed Joey agitating his hands.
Anzu noted a glimpse of sadness in Yami's eyes and could tell that it was not all. Something was left and he hadn't told them. Also, Duke took note of that too.
- Stop feasting! This is more than your eyes can see –said Marik turning to look at the pharaoh who remained again in silence.
-What? –Joey asked realized he had missed something; he turned around to look at each one of them, and noted a troubled expression in the faces of Isis, Bakura and Marik and a confused one in Anzu and Duke's faces, also he couldn't see well Yami's expression. –Would you mind telling me what is left Yami? It doesn't end there? –asked Joey becoming preoccupied again.
-Actually, there is a little more –he continued –After all this happens, I will never be able to see you guys again… -he stopped and waited for his reaction
-WHAT?!-Exclaimed in unison Duke, Joey and Anzu - And you call that a 'little more', that's a huge more!! –exclaimed Joey shaking his arms in the air.
-Why? –asked Anzu more softly while she felt a mixture of pains shake in the bottom of her heart. Yami put a hand on his chest.
-Now that Seto has the dark energy, he is sucking my life energy at every hour with a kind of spell I can't figure out now, I discover it when the pain shot trough me intensely and started to feel weak. Immediately, I realized that it was Set's actions.-he paused a minute and then turned in his seat to stare to all of them that were supporting him in this hard situation – If he continues doing this to me, I will die… It's because of that, I need to get rapidly to that place, so I can stop him, and then… I could let my soul go peacefully…
-But, there is no way you can made a more powerful spell than his to stop him? Please, tell me you can do it! –claimed Anzu grabbing his hands and staring at him with teary eyes.
-To do that, I need at least five of the seven items… my inner power increase with the items, but three of them are at Set's side… -he sighed again
-But their holders are at this side –insinuate Ryou thoughtfully. Yami turned to look at him with a confused expression
-What are you thinking? –he asked and the others turned to look at Ryou as well
-Yes, Ryou, what are you planning? –asked Marik standing up of his seat and walking towards him.
-It can be a little crazy, but we have to try it out. The only thing to lose is energy. –He said and started to explain –I think that maybe, if the holders concentrate their energy and thoughts into their respective items, they can someway respond and react to their hosts. And, when they gain that control over the items, we can entreat the spell to release your soul from Set's spell. –he finished calmly
-And, what items belong to each one of us? –asked Duke signaling Joey and him with his hand
-That's the point! If you success in this, you will see in your minds eye the form of your chosen item. If you are able to see it, then you will know that it worked and that the item in this moment is responding to you –finished Ryou and stared at Yami again.
-What do you think? We try? –he asked to him and waited for his answer. Yami was not sure of it. To do that it had to be expended a great amount of energy, and he didn't want his friends hurt. He turned to look at Duke and Joey.
-What do you guys think of this? –he asked relieving the task of deciding to the ones who were supposedly to carried it out.
-I will try, I want to –said Joey with a big smile on his face
-Me too –said Duke staring at Yami with determination. Yami just nodded his head towards his friends.
Then suddenly the red light of the seatbelt lighted up and the voice of the pilot could be heard.
-Please, sit down. We are going to land at International Airport of Cairo. Now.
All of them went to seat again in their seats, and the plain landed without any disturbance on the runway.
The staircase of the plain got down for the passengers to get out. Minutes later, they were in a very big van, that was able to carry them all, heading for the Valley of the Kings were Set's was waiting for them, in the forbidden chamber.
-We should try now? –asked Duke to Ryou who was going to respond when Yami screamed a little.
All turned hasty towards him and saw him leaned in the van windows, clutching his chest more strongly and desperately that the last time with his right hand. His eyes shut tight and his left hand was turned into fist so vigorously that his knuckles went white; also he was clenching his teeth for the very hard pain he felt.
-Oh no! –exclaimed Anzu hugging him to reassuring him, but she knew it was no use.
-Do it! –said rapidly Ryou.
Duke and Joey closed his eyes and tried to concentrate their energies to their items. They could heard and feel the struggling and pain shouting that Yami was doing. Joey opened his eyes impotent.
-I can't…! –he exclaimed hitting the van's door. He felt like a shit.
-Joey…don't… give… -Yami tried to finish his sentence but the pain made him go limp and into unconsciousness. Anzu screamed.
-Yami!!!! –her eyes wetting with tears at the instant. Joey widened his eyes and focused again as well as Duke to do his best effort.
-"Come on, I can do it, Yami needs me…please item respond, I command you"-thought Joey
-"I want to help him, item please answer me, answer me…" –thought Duke hardly
In minutes, they could see a strange blurry shadow in their respective minds that slowly was coming clearer as the seconds passed, suddenly and at the same time both of them opened their eyes and gasped…
