Disclaimer: I don't own Yu Gi oH! I make no money from this story.
Note: If you haven't noticed, the Mummy movies kind of acted as inspiration. This chapter will have some fluff to it, but really it is going to be kind of serious. Seto is going to notice the Book of the Living and the Book of the Dead and confront Yami about them. Yami has some explaining to do. Please forgive me, I didn't want to insult anyone with attempting to write in a foreign language.
This chapter jumps back to like a couple of weeks after the proposal.
Sealing the Items
Yami sat looking through The Book of the Living. Chewing on his bottom lip, and mumbled to himself, "I have been looking for answers for months…what am I missing?" Carefully moving that book aside he looked to the Book of the Dead. He had found the spell that caused all of this. Soul of the Living Dead. The counter curse was being difficult. Yami frowned, and whispered. "Atem…I don't know what to do…" The puzzle remained silent against his chest as he leaned forward, pressing the palms of his hands into his face. Whatever this spell did it wouldn't allow Atem and Yami to communicate like he did while sharing his body with Yugi. Yami had all the knowledge that he did while he and Atem were one, but the answer was alluding him. Yami's head thumped to the table. He was supposed to be happy, in a few months Mia and Jonouchi's wedding was taking place.
Keeping his chin resting on the table, he eyed both books. When he wasn't helping Seto test games, trying to figure out how to help Atem. He was being dragged around by Either Jonouchi or Mai. There was currently a debate about who Yami belonged to. Mai argued that she got him, since Jonouchi already had Yugi, and the fact that then they would each have three grooms men and brides maids. While he said that Yami was his due to the fact that they were friends for a longer time. Yami sighed, still staring at the books as his phone went off. Picking up his phone he looked at the text.
Hey Yami! Are you ready! You are coming with me to pick my dress! Hurry before Jonouchi tries to seal you, I'm outside! ;)

Yami couldn't help the laugh he let out. Leaving the books on his desk he went to his and Seto's room to change. Slipping into his normal outfit and after checking his hair he went outside. In Mai's convertible was, Serenity and Anzu. Hopping into the back seat with Anzu Yami asked. "Isn't this something you would only want to do with the girls?"
Mai giggled, turning to look back at Yami she said. "Oh no Yami! You are with us today! Besides, I love your fashion sense." Flicking her sunglasses down she winked. "It could give you inspiration for your own dress." As the girls giggled Yami's face flushed red. Flashing the three of them a smile as she sped off.

The house was quiet when Seto got home from work, he knew Yami was doing wedding stuff with Mai today, while Mokuba was off with some of his friends. Thoughts of his and Yami's own wedding settle in his mind. He didn't want the wedding to take place until the items were sealed and Atem was free. He moved to the safe and took out the millennium rod. Sighing he thought, I still have a hard time believing this crap. He set the item down and crossed his arms, giving it a sideways glance he glared. We have all seven…maybe they can now be sealed. Glancing at his clock he thought, maybe Yami is home now. Moving from his desk, Seto went into Yami's office. He froze when he saw the two Egyptian books laying open on his desk. The millennium rob gave off a faint warming sensation in Seto's hand. Moving over to the desk and laying the rod down, he brushed his fingers over the Book of the living. A memory hit him hard. These were from Atem's tomb. Yami never told him who sent them to him, Seto glared at the books. A faint light flashed from the rod, sparing it a glance Seto touched the book of the living. Feeling as if he was being compelled to look through the pages. Scanning the pages, he could feel his attention being drawn to one spell in particular. Flight of Souls. The rod gave a faint flash again as Seto's eyes began to glow. Started to read the spell as the door swung open, making Seto straighten up.
Yami looked at Seto in surprise, then to the books and frowned. "Seto?"
Seto whipped around and stared at the gold puzzle around Yami's neck. "Yami…" His voice had an odd chill to it. "How did you get these?"
Yami took a deep breath and closed the office door behind him. Slowly moving to stand next to Seto. "You won't like the answer…" Glancing up to him, only to see his cold glaring stare. "…Imhotep." Yami saw Seto's hands clench into fists, deciding to quickly move on Yami added. "I called Ishizu as soon as I was alone. She knew the items were sent to me." Turning to Seto and carefully placed his hands over one of Seto's clenched fists and said. "There is nothing wrong with any of it. These books cannot be possessed by a spirit of any kind. No matter how strong. She, and Marik wouldn't have let this happen if they felt anything from him. She told me that it wasn't Imhotep himself, but his incarnated form." When Seto didn't move away, Yami moved a little closer and whispered. "I meant to tell you…Since Atem and myself didn't feel anything evil from anything I just…spaced it."
Seto glared as he snapped. "You spaced it?! This could have hurt you! I want to help you, even if I don't like all this magic bull shit. You have been stressed out, and distant. You really think I wouldn't notice? I didn't say anything because I figured that you would come to me yourself." Glaring at Yami he added, "Do you not trust me to believe you?"
Yami looked away from him and crossed his arms. "That's not it!" Looking up at him again he said. "I know how you feel about this stuff Seto, and you and Mokuba have been busy with your company! I wanted to have a solution to give you before bothering you about it!" The tension in the room was electret as they glared at each other. Giving him Yami sighed, "I'm really sorry Seto…I…I didn't mean to worry you." '
Seto frowned, feeling himself cool down. "Its fine Yami, just don't. DO. It. Again." Relaxing he leaned against the desk. "I want to seal the items."
"I can seal the items… since we do have all seven items." Leaning forward he placed his fingers together thinking, "But Seto, I don't know a spell that will both seal the items and sent Atem to the afterlife."
Seto locked eyes with Yami as he said simply. "I found the spell you need." Moving to the book he pointed at it and stated. "Flight of Souls."
A smile broke across his face as he grabbed the book. "You found it! I had been searching for months!" Keeping the smile on his face, he noticed the millennium rod. The smile turned to a knowing one as he looked up to Seto. "I thought you didn't believe in all this magic."
Seto looked away, crossed his arms again and snorted. Moving into a more relaxed position. "You did before, but it didn't exactly work. The seal broke when it was given to Yugi. Do you know why?" He felt Yami's eyes land on him again.
"Hmm, the real reason? I can't say really, but part of that could have been that I only sealed the puzzle and ring. In the past I left Seth in charge of the five that were not sealed. I don't know if they were ever sealed, and even as I research the past at my job I still haven't found that out." Keeping his eyes on Seto he added, "I still don't see why you want to know."
Seto kept his gaze locked with Yami's, "It's simple. The way I look at it Yami is if the power is sealed you would be safe. Why would they want you without the puzzle?"
Yami stared at him, "You have a point. But doing this will require us to take all the items back to my tomb in Egypt. Then I would like to put all of Atem's passions and casket in the Cairo Museum. Not only will Atem be with Seth in the sprit real but at rest in the current time."
Seto nodded. "Explain this spell to me."
Yami scanned over the spell then looked to Seto. "This spell is the counter spell to the soul of the living dead. These books are old, maybe even older than the items. The one who should be answering your questions is Seth. He was always better at this kind of stuff, so I will give you what I know. The curse, Soul of the living dead. It is the reason that the book of the living was created. It holds all the counter spells to the curses in the book of the dead. That curse brings back a soul from the moment the soul passed on. For example, that's why I came back at deaths door. Even with the new body. My soul was meant to be a rest, not among the living. If you hadn't stopped the spell I wouldn't be here, you would have Atem. The spell failed, so it fractured our soul into two pieces. I'm born from Atem's memories of living in the puzzle while sharing Yugi's body. While Atem's part of our soul has no memory of anyone after he locked himself into the puzzle. You said I have been acting odd? Well I'm channeling Atem's feels around his death. This spell is so dangerous due to the fact that most people it was used on killed themselves, knowing that they no longer belonged in the land of the living. The spell you found, flight of the souls, gives us options. I need Atem to seal the items. This counter spell will free Atem from the puzzle, giving him back all of his memoires and magic. Then when the puzzle is sealed he can move on…but I feel like I missing something but without Seth. I don't know what it is."
Seto took a moment to digest all the information. He too felt there was something missing from the spell, however, the rod wasn't helping this time. Looking to Yami he said. "Then let's start planning it. I'm guessing that woman and her annoying brother are going to have to be part of it?"
Yami gave him a sly smile "I will call her." He slipped away from Seto and sat on his desk.
Seto watched him. If he was honest with himself he didn't like the thought of people excavating Atem's tomb. Although he couldn't place why exactly. Yami was here with him and the body was almost destroyed because of the spell, making it so it couldn't be on display. And if he remembered correctly Atem's tomb was a pyramid, and the inside was a huge maze. Which is why, even when it was found it still took a long time to find the puzzle itself. And even longer to find Yami's old self. He still didn't quite understand how he found it the second time. The first was simple, Yami took them there for the sacred duel. Looking at the millennium rod again, he simply wanted all this magic out of his life. And if sealing these items would save Yami in the process it was just a bonus. Seto kept watching Yami, committing the way Yami moved to memory.
"Seto, Ishizu said it was possible. My magic," Pausing to look at him, he smirked at Seto's expression when he used the word my, and magic together he continued. "Is at its strongest, just like it was when I was Pharaoh. We just have to get the items through customs."
Seto shrugged, "Privet jet Yami…do we need any of your little friends?"
Yami gave him a look and said, "As long as Yugi come."
Seto groaned, "Fine…Yugi isn't the worst one."
Yami gave him a look. "I'll go get the items we kept at the museum."
Seto watched Yami leave, he went back to his office and opened the safe that held some of the items. He carefully pulled out the items and placed them on the desk.

After Yami set up his preparations for Atem's items to be transported to Seto's privet airport he went to surprise Yugi at the game shop.
"Yami!" Yugi happily called as Yami walked into the game shop.
"Yugi!" Yami leaned on the counter while he told Yugi everything. "Well Seto wants me to seal the items. Did you want to come for that too?"
Yugi smiled again, "Yeah! Of course I do!" Yugi took Yami's hand and sighed, "I can't believe that you are getting married also." He looked at the ring and back up to Yami, "I'm so happy for you."
"Ah, hello boys shall we go?" Solomon asked as he walked in.
Yami smiled, "thank you for your help. I don't think my name alone would have suspended the work being done on the tomb."
"Oh my boy, I really think it would have. You have definitely made a name for yourself." Solomon laughed, "Anyways, I am definitely going with you to the tomb. With you and Kaiba there I won't get lost this time!"
Yugi laughed, "Grandpa!"
"Let's go guys!" With that said they got to the museum.
Collecting the items Solomon was watching Yami closely, "What brought all this on? Sealing the items I mean."
Yami looked thoughtful for a minute, "Seto asked me to. It seemed very important to him, and I thought about it. After what I did to him in his past life I do owe it to him to seal all the items properly. Besides, this will be good for Atem too."
Yugi placed the ring into a box listing quietly, "hey Yami?" Knowing Yami was looking at him he asked quietly, "Can you give Bakura his own body?" Looking at Yami now he continued, "I have been with Bakura, he tells me his other side is behaving much better. And he hasn't gone after you in a few years now. So…Please?"
Yami stared at him, taking in Yugi's pleading expression he gave in. "Okay…if you trust him...but I don't know if Atem will be able too. We will try and do it with this spell."
Yugi smiled brightly. Finishing placing the items in boxes Yami looked at both of them and nodded, "Let's get Bakura and meet with Seto before he gets impatient." Driving to Bakura's house, he shuttered slightly at the thought of Seto's reaction about Bakura would be.
Parking outside Yami looked at everyone in the jeep, "Stay put." He went inside and found Seto, "Hey, ready to go?"
"It's about time, what took so long Yami?" Seto asked as he told one of his workers to move the items and luggage to the car.
Yami coughed, "well, Bakura is coming."
Seto slowly looked back at him and asked dumbly, "Bakura?"
Yami walked over to him and nodded, "I'm going to try and give him his own body…"
Seto glared, "Why?!"
Yami didn't flinch as he sensed the anger start to filter into Seto's voice. "Yugi said that he's changed, and I trust him. Do you trust me?"
Seto and Yami locked eyes, "I trust you, and it's him I don't trust."
Yami smiled and touched his face, "Without the ring we don't have to worry about him. Besides, you trust almost no one." Yami smiled and stood on the balls of his feet and kissed him.
Seto's glare stuck on his face and crossed his arms, "Let's go Yami, I'm driving." Yami sighed and followed Seto to the car.
Yami quietly sat in the passenger seat while Seto got in and slammed the driver side door. Seto looked in the rear view mirror and glared at Bakura, who kept a proud smirk on his face. "Aw, is the little priest upset?" choosing to ignore him Seto took off for the airport.
The car ride was awkwardly quiet, Seto would keep glancing in the review mirror at Bakura, who would proudly smirk back. Yami sighed inwardly, he knew this would happen, but he told Yugi he would try. Yami glanced at Seto, who was staring straight ahead. Once reaching the airport Seto looked at Yami. "Let's go." Getting out of the car clearly leaving no room for argument Yami frowned but quickly followed him. Yugi sighed, "Bakura make sure you behave." Yugi got out after seeing Bakura's look of shock. "What? It's all Kaiba!"
Boarding the jet everyone took their seats, Seto keeping Yami close to him and watching Bakura's every move. Yami looked at Seto, then to Bakura he frowned once again and mumbled, "this is going to be a long flight."
As the flight continued Seto seemed to fold more into himself. He looked over and watched Bakura and Yugi dueling quietly. He scanned the room until his eyes fell onto Yami, who at the moment was leaned against his side reading. He sighed, magic…Seto simply wouldn't believe in this crap. All this magic they keep going on about. He's here…he glanced back at Bakura. Seto couldn't put his finger on it, but he just couldn't stand him. Bakura smirked at him and added a small wave. Seto scowled at him, crossing arms angrily he stood up and strode out of the room feeling Yami's eyes on his back the whole time. Seto had been keeping Yami against his side for more than half the flight, and if he wasn't plastered against Seto's side they were touching in some way. Seto felt nervous and that made him uncomfortable. On top of everything, if Yami left the room for any reason Seto would follow. Or it would be the other way around. With Bakura in the room Seto felt himself being strangely protective, even with the fact that he knew Yami could handle himself. Yami blinked after him, he had gotten up so suddenly that he had almost knocked him over. Yami then looked to Bakura. Sighing to himself, 'Is he really that against me getting Bakura his own body?' "Seto!" Mokuba, noticing Seto's silent exit was about to follow. "Mokuba, let me." Yami stood up and left the room just a quietly as Seto had.
Leaving the main room of the plane looked around. Dose everything he create have to be this big? Yami wondered around the plane quietly, as he passed a room he heard a soft typing sound. He peaked in and wasn't surprised to see Seto working. Slipping in softly he wondered over to Seto and sat on the desk. He didn't receive any response, if he sat on Seto's desk back home he would normally get snapped at. Something was off. "So, want to tell me what your problem is? You're sulking, strangely protective and more possessive than normal." Yami crossed his arms and added with a smirk, "You are also being almost clingy. In front of other people. You hate any form of public affection." Yami noted that sometime during his small speech Seto had stopped working and turned his icy gaze to him.
"You are sitting on my desk."
Yami sighed loudly. "What about my question?"
Seto closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair. "Yami, you know that I don't care for any of this magic crap. And I just know we have to see that woman and her brother." Yami nodded. "And on top of all that Yami you brought Bakura. Why? Just because your little clone batted his eyes at you?"
They matched glares for a moment. Keeping up with Seto's glare Yami decided to surrender, since Seto was right. Bakura was only getting a body of his own due to Yugi. He closed his eyes and slipped of the table. "Is Bakura why you are acting strange?"
Seto simply stared at him and snapped out, "only part of it. You know that I hate all this magic, Egypt crap." Yami blinked and tried to ask, "Then why-"Seto cut him off. "The way that I look at it is that if the items are gone it won't come up anymore! And now I have to share you with your mini-me and Bakura! I can hardly stand their presence as it is! Then that women always referees to me as the priest. I am my own person! I am NOT Seth! Just as you are not Atem anymore!"
Yami felt himself flinch, the comment about not being Atem made him feel strange, but he knew that Seto was right about that. He let Seto's rant settle he could feel himself bristle at the harsh tone. Going off on him was fine, but Seto kept bringing in Yugi. He locked eyes with Seto. Just by looking at him he could tell his mood. Seto wasn't just mad, he was seething. Something he couldn't tell however, was if Seto wanted him to stay or leave. Yami wanted nothing more than to stop this before it became an argument, so he touched Seto's face softly. He decided the best choice to calm the situation was to appease him, which in the long scheme of things meant giving in. The fact that Seto had told him this much didn't go ignored, he never opened up this much. Seto would be his normal cranky self once Atem was free. "Nothing will happen to me. I truly feel that Bakura won't harm me. Besides I have you there as backup. I know you are your own person. I have never once thought of you as Seth. Believe me, you two are completely different people Seto. Now your attitude is the same, you are both cocky know it all's. But, you treat me differently than Seth. You don't treat me like I'm a Pharaoh, you don't treat me like I'm fragile and need protection. You make me figure things out. Seth was more apt to give me all the answers and step in if he thought I was in danger. Therefore you support me differently. Ishizu means no disrespect, I don't think. She is just trying to…get you to embrace your past life." Choosing to ignore Seto's noise of distaste he continued. "As for you thinking of me as me and not Atem is nice Seto. However, unlike you and Seth, I am very much like Atem. We are the same person really. Nothing has really changed. The only difference that I see really is that I accept help better. Atem was perhaps more prideful then myself. At the same time, Atem liked to take things on alone if possible, as I prefer to have my friends with me. That could be because he felt he had to protect everyone, he was a king. And yes, you are right. Bakura is getting his own body against my better judgment. I see Yugi as my younger brother, and like you I have a hard time telling him no. I do feel that after this is all over Egypt will leave us alone." After he finished he lightly kissed Seto's forehead. Yami turned to leave only to be yanked back and pulled into Seto's lap.
Seto said nothing as he held onto him. Yami moved carefully and adjusted himself so that he now startled his lap. Seto reached up and took the millennium puzzle from Yami and set it onto the table. Seto then took off the choker that Yami always wore and added it to the table. Yami gave him a questioning look. Seto's response was to simply try and pull Yami impossibly closer to him. Seto then buried his face into Yami's neck. "I didn't want my face against a belt choker…" Yami could feel the smirk against his neck. The smirk was gone almost instant and a whisper followed that Yami almost missed, "what if you die?" Yami frowned, his past self-did in fact die after he sealed the puzzle. Yami shuddered suddenly, he hadn't considered that. He leaned his head against Seto's and wrapped his arms around his shoulders. Yami stayed quiet as he thought about it. I was really sick when I tried to seal all the items, I was also out of Ba energy. Something I didn't include were my priests. Had I used their magic I could have succeeded, however, I still would have died. Although I'm not sick this time and I have all my magic which will only increase once we reach Egypt. "I won't this time. I'm not sick anymore. I have all my energy, and magic…this time I will utilize everyone's power and not just mine." Seto's only response was to nuzzle his face against Yami's neck. In return Yami quietly stroked Seto's hair on the back on his head and neck. This is what his attitude was all about…Yami thought. As Seto tightened his grip a little he balled his fists into Yami's shirt. While at the same time Seto bit down onto Yami's neck. Yami gasped, he wouldn't be leaving the room anytime soon. Seto rarely started their intimate moments, if Seto wanted him here, he would happily stay.

Yugi looked around before he called, "Hey! Jonouchi! You guys can come out now, I don't think Yami and Seto are coming back to soon."
The three stumbled out of hiding as Jonouchi complained, "For a plane this big why were we stuck into a closet?" Yugi laughed. While the group talked loudly Mokuba pouted, Yugi smiled at him. "Mokuba come on over here we are watching a movie!"
A knock on the door woke Seto up, "Mr. Kaiba we are about to land." Seto looked around, at some point last night they had moved over to the couch in the room. Noticing a certain person was missing Seto harshly answered, "Alright." He grumpily sat up only to have clothes thrown at him.
Yami glared at him, "Good thing I wear a choker, do you know what you did to my neck?!"
Seto smirked, relaxed into the couch and threw his arms behind his head. Eyeing Yami, who was currently half necked. "Yes Yami, I did that on purpose. I like to mark my things."
Yami clipped his choker in place glared at him again while he yanked his tight pants back on. "He said we were landing?" Seto nodded and finally decided to get dressed. As they entered the main room they both froze. Seto twitched, "WHAT is the MUTT doing here?!"
Jonouchi glared, "We STOED away RICH BOY! WE want to support Yami too!" Seto glared back. Yami rolled his eyes and looked at Yugi with a knowing look. Yugi laughed and starched the back of his head. Yami wondered over to the window and looked out at Cairo.
Bakura smirked and slithered behind Yami and whispered. "You two were gone for quite a while Pharaoh…"
Yami jumped suddenly turned and glared at Bakura. "Your point?"
Bakura crossed his arms and smirked, wiggling his eyebrows whispered. "I bet I know what you were doing…"
Yami blushed, "it's none of your business. I…I'm going outside!" Yami crossed his arm and swiftly walked out of the plane. Yugi gave Bakura a look which got him an innocent look from Bakura, and hurried after Yami.
As they exited the plane Ishizu greeted them, "Welcome my Pharaoh." She, Marik and Odion who bowed to him. Yami shifted uncomfortably for a moment until Seto came up behind him. "Can we just get this over with? We have more important things to be planning."
Yugi giggled while Ishizu just looked annoyed. Yami and Marik smiled at each other. "Yami we can take you to the sealing grounds." Yami nodded and followed Marik. They all piled into the car and Odion started the drive.
"My Pharaoh sealing the items this time shouldn't be hard." Ishizu explained, "It should be simple."
Yami glanced at Bakura and said, "I know a spell to give him his body back. This one isn't banned as was the one to revive me." Before she could question him Yami stated, "Seto beat you to it. I know the risks." Ishizu sighed and exchanged a glace with Seto. As they passed Atem's tomb Yugi asked, "Aren't we stopping there?" Marik shook his head, "The sealing grounds are near here." Yami stared out the window, he could feel the millennium puzzle heat up as it began to glow.
"This is it? It's in such good shape!" Anzu asked amazed. The sealing temple was in amazing state, considering it was about 5,000 years old or so. As the group got out of the cars Marik explained, "Well, Yugi's grandpa discovered it and told us about it. We were able to keep it secret all this time. And as you can see it has been restored as best as it can be." Yami wondered off ahead of the group, making him the first to enter the temple. Yami's hands wondered to the puzzle which was still glowing, as he went in further he noticed some hieroglyphics. He carefully touched them, eye's widening slightly. A warm shock rippled through his body form his touch. Yami flinched away from the wall as if it burnt him, however Yami still took out a camera, and took a picture of them. Seto watched Yami quietly as he walked in with the rest of the group. As he made his way to Yami, the building came to life. Yami's puzzle was glowing as was the eye on his forehead. Long dead touches that hung from the walls flickered to life as the temple got all of its color back. The hieroglyphics popped off the walls as it returned to what it would have looked like in the past. Light poured into the room from and opening, adding more light. Yami gasp a little as he looked at his own hands. He noticed his that his clothes felt different.
"Yami!" Yugi hurried over and eyed him, "What did you do?"
Yami looked at the group then back to Yugi, "I…I didn't do anything! The temple reacted to my puzzle."
Bakura smirked as he stood next to Seto. Nudging Seto he then called, "Hey Pharaoh! At least you are giving us a nice view!" Seto glared mincingly as they all looked at Yami. He was currently shirtless, with gold accents on his upper arm and both wrists. He had a gold eye on his forehead which replaced his glowing eye that was there, along with gold two gold earrings. While his choker was replaced with a gold one and the look was complete with a cape that was settled around his shoulders. Crossing his arms Yami turned his back to the group, in order to hide a faint blush from all the attention." I normally it had a top." Yami started off deeper into the temple. Bakura laughed, giving a low whistle. Seto rolled his eyes and stormed off and quickly caught up with Yami as Yugi gave Bakura a look. Bakura sighed at Yugi, "I didn't do anything…" and the quietly joined the rest of the group.
As they entered the main sealing room, they were greeted with almost pure darkness. Yami instinctively moved to a mirror and turned it, causing it to catch the sunlight that was slipping in making the room bust with light as it bounced off other mirrors that were setting around the room. Yugi smiled brightly, "this temple is so colorful! Were all buildings like this?"
Yami looked at him and nodded. He leaned down and whispered to him while looking at Seto, "Believe it or not….Seto's past self-designed most of the temples and tombs."
Yugi, also looking at Seto, he whispered back, "But they are so colorful and warm." Yami stood up and laughed.
Seto glared at him, "What are you two talking about?"
Yami smiled innocently "Nothing…nothing." Pillars surrounded the room, holding the room steady. Each pillar had colorful hieroglyphics on them, and had gold in places just to make it more beautiful. Seto kept his eyes on Yami. "Seto!" Seto blinked and locked eyes with Yami. He hadn't even noticed that Yami had approached him. "We need to start so we can go home to finish our wedding planning." He took Seto's hand and pulled him over to the center of the room. Seto, Ishizu, Marik and Odion placed all the items in there selected spots. Yami motioned from Bakura to join him in the center. Seto sighed, he wasn't going to stop him from giving Bakura is own body, be he was completely against it. Yami spoke quietly in Egyptian. Each item glowed as the millennium ring hovered above its place. A blinding light over took the room as Bakura's sprit of pulled from the ring and Ryo's body. As the light returned to normal, all the items dimmed. Ryo and Bakura both sat up. Tristan rushed over to Ryo as Yugi did the same for Bakura. Each being helped up and walked out of the way.
When Yami's eyes opened, they were a dark purple color, Seto noticing that Yami was no longer in charge, but standing next to Atem in the clothes that he left the plane in. Everyone blinked at the pair, no one noticed when they became two people. Atem smiled at Yami before he started talking to the group. "The spell that Seto found will seal the items, but it will also add proper protection to each one. To be able to use all the items power the person will have to beat me in a duel. However they will also have to each defat the item's guardian first. Even if a person manages to beat all of you, none of the items will work until I am taken. I do believe that this was the original spell that I was trying to do." Seto's eyes narrowed, like hell anyone will get to you. Yami and Atem began the ritual, speaking in Egyptian. Each item would glow, one by one, each item would glow and then look slightly dull. Until they reach the puzzle. Its original box opened, as the puzzle's glow seemed to become brighter. Lifting off the platform, it began to come apart. Then the pieces of the puzzled fell into the box. Once all the pieces fell into the box the lid closed and light went around opening sealing the puzzle inside.
Yami suddenly fell to one knee as the temple lost its luster. The fires went out, dropping them into darkness as the only light that remained came from the opening in the room. Seto moved over to Yami and knelt next to him. Yami was breathing heavily. Seto rubbed his back lightly and Yami looked at him. He smiled and whispered, "It's done." Seto kept his eyes on him and asked, "Are you okay to walk?" Yami nodded and stood up. They looked at each other both smiled.
A small cough brought their attention to Atem, who, to everyone's surprise, Seth was standing next to him. "I need to thank you both." Atem smiled, "Yami you can come with us, but I see that won't happen."
Seth and Seto locked eyes for second. Before turning away from him, moving to the doors that opened form the wall. Atem smiled at them once again and hurrying after Seth. Just before the doors closed, the items dissolved into light and followed Atem to the afterlife. Bakura said, "Pharaoh…Thank you." Yami smiled again and nodded, while Seto simply glared. Yugi pulled Yami away happily and Seto kept his glare pointed at Bakura. Bakura sighed, "Look priest…I have no desire to do anything to Yami. At the moment. He could have listened to you and the rest of you but he didn't."
Yami looked back at them, "Hey! Come on guys!" Seto and Bakura followed Yami out of the room.
"Hey Yami." Yugi looked at him, "Are you going to take the name Atem now?" Yami looked thoughtful, "No. I like Yami, besides. Thanks to these hieroglyphics I can give my past self his name. Ishizu, I'm leaving all of Atem's tomb items here. They belong here, and as corny as it sounds, this way Seth and Atem can be together in the present and the past. I was also going to announce the nameless pharaoh's name." Ishizu smiled, "It would be an honor my pharaoh."
The announcement was made the next day before the group went back to Japan. Yami sighed, Seto eyed him and sighed, crossing his arms he mumbled to himself, 'If I am ever, going to have Yami all to myself I need to ensure that this stuff is well guarded.' He moved over to Yami and the curator and said, "Excuse me curator but I have a few suggestions about your security system." Yami turned to him with a mildly surprised expression. The curator smiled brightly, "That would be wonderful! This way Mr. Kaiba." Seto sighed and followed the small man to the office.
Yami blinked a few more times as Ishizu walked over. "My pharaoh, you mentioned that you wanted to keep your DiaDhank?"
Yami nodded and said, "I don't mind sending everything else over."
She smiled again, "He only agreed because it's pretty obvious that you are related to the Atem. I mean, you are him but they don't know that." Yami nodded as he looked at the caskets in the room. He didn't know who found Seth's tomb, but simply seeing them together made him happy. "Where is Mr. Kaiba?"
Yami said, "Apparently to make me feel better he's upgrading the security system." He paused and thought for a second, "He won't admit to that though." Both laughed as Seto joined them.
"Okay, can we please go now? It's got the best security system that Kaiba crop makes. It will not only alert the authorities. If anything in this room is disturbed by anyone other than curator it will send me a message. That is, unless it is Ishizu moving the items."
The curator smiled at Yami, "Mr. Moto, we both figured the puzzle safer in the pharaoh's casket. We already have pictures of it, and are making a copy to have on display." Yami seemed to relax, Seto took the puzzle from Yami. "I'm not making you put it in that casket." Yami watched quietly as the puzzle was placed safely into the casket and the lid was sealed again. "Now we can go Seto." He turned to the curator and Ishizu, "Thank you for everything."
With everyone back on the plane Seto and Yami sat off by themselves. "With this out of the way we can finally focus on our plans Yami."
Yami smiled and nodded, "That would be great. I feel that we are a bit behind." Seto gave him a small smile, as he went back to reading his phone. Yami glanced at him and leaned against him, he sighed. Having no puzzle resting around his neck would take some getting used too.
