Stop it! Just stop it! this isn't helping!" Yugi frantically shouted at Bakura. Bakura relented while his light held tightly to his arm. "What is going on Yami?" Yugi's eyes pleated to him. Yami sighed in defeat, "The end of mankind."
Yugi, Ryou, and Jou looked at Yami with shock and confusion. Jou rested a hand against his face in exasperation. "So what da hell is da big deal den?! We've gone and saved the world before and we can do it again. We have the spirits and Yugi what else do ya need?"
"A son of Ra and the high priest that's what you little twit!" Bakura growled out in agitation. Ryou securely held Bakura by the arm in order to restrain him while the Dark half seethed with rage, his hikari looked to the pharaoh for an explanation. "I do believe some insight to the situation might be helpful don't you think Yami?" Yami's eyes looked bleak almost black from remembering the events of that tragic event. He nodded once in silent agreement.
"During the time I was Pharaoh of the Nile, it was considered a peaceful time even due to fighting with Ethiopia, the Persians, and other miscreants. I was arrogant back then believing I could win every battle, since playing games helped me think of intellectual strategies to outmaneuver and succeed my opponent. When the games began to loose their luster, I became bored while trying to keep my people safe. The gods smiled upon me I guess thinking it was not time for Egypt to loose its rightful bearing in the world. And so the son of Ra, a hybrid, came to the palace as a guard, enticing me with a game he called Duel Monsters."
"What is a hybrid Yami?" Yugi butted in, his curiosity got the better of him. Bakura replied for the Pharaoh while casually propped up against a crate with his eyes closed while listening in. "A hybrid is what we would consider a part mortal/ part god. The son of Ra had immortality yet holds human emotions, get it pipsqueak?" Yugi narrowed his eyebrows in frustration at the pipsqueak comment but nodded in silent understanding.
Yami continued on replaying the events in his mind while speaking, "I was engrossed in the games, it made you strategize by using weak and strong monsters along with magic to help defeat your opponent. Little did I realize the priest and the "guard" were engrossed in one another. I would see the guard sneaking out of the Priest Seth's room late at night when I took my leisure night strolls though the palace. I thought nothing of it at the time. As I continued to strengthen my skills in Duel Monsters reports from messengers came through as though it were a plague causing chaos and havoc throughout my kingdom. Disembodied limbs scattered streets while paving them in crimson, crops dying even in the peak of harvest, and black markings as if claw marks streaked across houses."
"I called upon the "guard" for guidance in using the monsters in the oncoming battle. He said the monsters would need to be returned on a day he prophesied the battle would commence. I became too engrossed with my own power I thought the monsters would obey my bidding since the Gods proclaimed me their rightful ruler. Sadly my ego got the best of me and cost me my kingdom and life. The guard requested for the stone cards/ tablets to be returned to him the day of the battle yet I denied him his creation. His anguish over not only my betrayal but of his lover's as well for siding and protecting me.
The black cloud came in so fast we did not have time to prepare, and the wisps of the dark cloud ran by while you herd agonizing screams, bones cracking, and growls as though it were a vicious beast from the underworld. All I can remember is the chaos, the demon's red eyes, and then staring at Osiris waiting my judgment for the afterlife."
Yami opened his eyes and heaved a depressing sigh from the pain he just revealed hoping to be forgotten. He looks at Jou from a sidelong glance. "What do you know about your past lives, anything at all?" Jou's light bulb turned on by making the connection to what the former pharaoh was getting at.
"Dere is no way I am da son of Ra!" Jou starts to laugh in hysterics. "I would have remembered something like you all did if dats true! I have had da shittiest life evea, and you believe me ta be some half-god. There is no way possible!" Bakura grabbed Jou's shirt and shook him aggressively, "You idiot! You look exactly like him! Your last name is Wheeler which is close to his deity name which is Weneg*. He represented the cosmic order. He would help his father by keeping chaos raining down upon the earth. He would give out judgment to other gods and mortals to keep the law of Ra obeyed!*You despise Kaiba, the former high priest! Coincidence I think not your moron!" Ryou and Yugi pull Bakura off while the white haired boy glared at the shocked blond.
The blond shakes his head harder trying to rationally think everything the Dark halves had stated. "Dis..dis ain't happening. I… I need to go." Jou did a football dodge around Yugi and Bakura escaping the storage area running for home not once looking back.
"JJJOOOUUUU!" Yugi hollered coming to a halt outside the storage unit. Yugi turned to his dark who was standing in the doorway, "Now that it's open how do we close it?" Bakura grabbed his light and the pharaoh by their shirt collars in the direction the blond went. "the only thing we can do at this point, go see the high priest, although that will be a laugh. Come on pipsqueak we haven't got all day." Yugi followed in hot pursuit heading in the direction of Kaiba Corp.
********(Scene Change)*******
Jou's lungs burned like fire as he finally reached his destination…home, or what little he thought of it. He dashed by the kitchen area quickly glancing as he went by noticing his father was home, he was drunk, and his pedophile friend Rick was visiting. Just my damn luck, and just when I thought this day could not get any worse!Jou dashed up to his room and quickly locked the door. He leaned his head against the wooden door while closing his eyes in order to regain his bearings.
"JOU! Get your ass down here! Rick wants to say hello" his father bellowed with a sly chuckle. Jou cursed mentally trying to find something to prop against the door, sadly only his rickety chair at his desk was available. Slamming it into place, Jou frantically started to put some clothes and possessions into his bag.
BANG! BANG! BANG! "OPEN THIS DOOR BOY! IF YOU DON'T THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY!" His father growled on the other side of the door. Jou grabbed his bag and headed for the window. He heaved with all his might but the window would not budge. He jostled the window but nothing seemed to work. SHIT! Just my luck to have the window jam!
CRACK! The door splintered near the door handle. Jou turned around and held his breath in fear as he watched his father's hand blindly feel for the door knob. He finally managed to open the door looking at his son with a drunken crazed look while Rick looked him up and down appraising him as if he were a piece of meat he will devour. Jou braced himself watching for the first to make a move.
"Now, now, that is no way to treat friends and family. All Rick wanted to do was say hi since he paid me so well." His father said in a sly voice. Rick just smiled gazing at his property for the next 2 hours. Jou growled out, "I ain't no ones property especially a damn drunk and his pervert!" His father narrowed his eyes in rage and lunged for the boy slamming a right hook into his cheek. Rick moved and grabbed Jou from behind rubbing himself against Jou's behind. "Ill have my fun one way or the other." Rick whispered into his ear slowly licking it.
Jou jerked away from the assault, finally letting his pent up rage finally explode. "I AM NOT YOUR FUCK TOY AND YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TOUCH ME. I HAVE HAD ENOUGH! YAHHHH!" Jou screamed out his frustration, yet all he could see was red, then everything went black. Ten minuted later, Jou slowly came to pressing a hand to his head, "what the hell happened?"
"You retaliated your eminence, and did quite some damage." The baritone voice replied. Jou finally looked around the room and gagged at the sight. Scorch marks raced around the room as if an inferno imploded it. Blood and burnt remains were found scattered around the room. Jou scrambled into the corner, frantically trying to get away from the carnage. A man came out of the shadows kneeling in front of Jou in the regal garbs of Egypt. "WHO ARE YOU? WHAT JUST HAPPENED?! DID I DO THIS?!" Jou shouted in panic while still trying to connect the pieces.
The man who kneeled before Jou in a calm resolve had short midnight black hair, and golden eyes like the sun. His tunic was made of silk yet adorned with black onyx. "I am Ammit, the devourer of the wicked*. I was sent to destroy those who wish to do you harm. Sadly, I could not do my duty since you have already destroyed the infidels. However, we must leave immediately. The guardians of this world are coming." He grabbed a hold of Jou's hand and began to pull him towards a black portal.
Jou jerked back in alarm "Where da hell you taken me? How do I know your not da bad guy?" Ammit looked at him in confusion. "Somewhere safe, I assure you, by orders of your real father RA. Do not fret, I have arranged for someone else to take the fall, and already sent a message to the former pharaoh Atem stating your alive and well." Police sirens could be herd coming closer to their location. Ammit grabbed Jou roughly by the wrist pulling him through the portal.
Soon after the police arrived, kicked down the door, and surveyed the room. Jou's room was barricaded by evidence tape. The room only had 2 corpses yet no sign of the son. The Police found a crazed man walking down the street screaming and laughing how he dowsed a home with pretty lights. A lighter and fluid were found in his clothes that were connected to the house. All was left was to find the boy in order to connect all the pieces of this mysterious puzzle.
********(Scene Change)*******
Bakura busted through the main door leading to Seto Kaiba's office dragging a begrudged Pharaoh and a sheepish hikari while Yugi panted not to far behind. Seto stopped his work to look up in silent exasperation. "Well look what the cat dragged in, the sicotic con, his significant other, the delusional "pharaoh" and his wanna be sidekick midget. What do I owe the honor for barging in on my office?" and why didn't my bodygaurds take care of you? Seto mentally thought to himself. Bakura grinned like a Cheshire cat who got the cream, "Well the bodyguards were easy and pathetic High Priest. You really need to get better protection." Finally letting go of the Pharaoh and his hikari. "Next time I want a challenge, that was just boring." he sighed while casually flopping down on the nearest couch.
"Hnnn..I'll keep that in mind." Kaiba growled out in aggravation. Well that anwseres that!
"listen Kaiba we didn't come here to fight, we actually came for your help." Yugi said while trying to catch his breath. "The world is in trouble and so is Jou we need your assistance!" Yugi stared at Kaiba with urgency. Kaiba leaned back in his chair surveying the misfits. He didnt care about them only except one...Joey..his puppy. He remembers his past life and the moments he shared with the blond however could never admit it to anyone least of all his love. Seto contemplates in his chair while thinking back to the night before during his dream/ past life.
*****(Flashback)****
Seth sat on his bed with Weneg looking over the Duel Monster tablets and their intricate artwork put into each one. "The intricate artwork on each one shows how much you love and the respect you have for the game my love. Even though you are a guard you wield some type of magic no?" Seth eyes softly gazed upon his lover from his neck. Chocolate brown eyes looked up from the tablets with a secret sparkle in his devious eyes. " To some extent perhaps" Weneg replied in a husky voice. Seth became quiet thinking if magic had something to do with thier joining, however wouldn't the priest known if that was the case?
Weneg moved away in order to face his love, gently caressing his gold main behind his ear. He leaned toward Seth and grazed his lips in a gentle loving kiss. " I picked you because I found something special in you. Your courage, your possessiveness, your love, and your will power to triumph over anything. No magic made this happen. Love is its own kind of special magic but cannot be created by potions or dark magic. Its a magic given only by willing couples who wish to receive it like us." Weneg caressed his partner's cheek and kissed him again but this time more passion and love to hopefully prove what words could not.
Seth gave his lover his trademark arrogant smirk "I do love you and that's what matters, however you can show me as well? I would love to see your love first hand." Weneg gave him a sly grin whilel slowly letting his garments fall onto the bed. "I think I can do that my high priest for the sake of love." Weneg replied in a seductive whisper while pressing himself against Seth.
****(End of Flashback)****
Seto sighed and pinched his nose while closing his eyes. "So the mutt is in trouble again that's nothing new. Why do I have to help? Can't his "musketeers" get him out of whatever mess he is in?" Yami was about to explain however was stalled by a parcel that landed in his hand burned with the Hieroglyphs of Ammits crest. "Yugi why dont you explain, I have to take care of something." Yami went into the antichamber/waiting room hastily unraveling the parcel.
Your Royal Eminence,
I have obtained Weneg and shall keep him safe for the time being. Guardians of his realm have been searching for him due to a slight problem at his residence. The gods have been called due to the recurring events. Please begin to prepare for battle. I shall be in touch soon.
Devourer of the Wicked,
Ammit
Yami sighed in relief knowing Jou was safe ; however became stressed if all the pieces were going to come together in time in order to defeat what was coming. Yami sensed a presence in the room and swiftly turned around to only see black smoke disappear. His lavender eyes widened in fear and ran to the far wall to notice small claw marks etched into the wall. He turned and ran into Kaiba's office more determined then ever to defeat the evil this time around. Red eyes watched the former Pharaoh retreat before it to decided it was time to create some hell of it's own.
