Thanks guys I appreciate it anyway here's chapter 2
T'ea awoke and found herself sprawled on a huge four post double bed with curtains draped around it.
She sat up and drew the curtains away seeing a small room faintly lit by the few scented candles that gave the room a delicious smell that she recognized but could not name.
She rose up falling back down the first time realizing she was shaky and felt weak.
T'ea stood again supporting herself on one of the posts around the bed, she stayed like this until she could balance and stay on her own two feet.
Looking around the small room her eyes lay upon a wooden door. She slowly approached it the light reflecting onto the handle making it emit a strangely enchanting glow.
Reaching out her hand to grasp the door the turned it and opened the door revealing total darkness.
Feeling oddly scared she closed the door and stepped back hitting something. Turning around she expected to see something terrifying like she would see from her nightmares as a small child but instead she saw the calming sight of Khaldun.
"Oh Khaldun it's you" she said relieved
"T'ea what were you doing just then?" he said questioningly
"Hmm? Oh well I wasn't really sure what to do so I tried to have a look around but…I got scared" she said looking at the floor embarrassed
He cupped her face and brought her head up smiling at her.
"You have no reason to be afraid as long as I am here nothing out there will harm you"
She gulped and she felt nervous
"There ARE things out there?" she said stepping closer to him.
He saw her fear and brought her into an embrace
"What did I say? Trust me you'll be fine" he said tightening his hold on her.
"Ok," she said relaxing "I trust you" snuggling closer into his chest
'Why do I feel this is wrong?' she thought
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"It's all…my fault...she's gone…It's my fault…" Atem said quietly as they sailed over the rivers of Egypt. Still sat in T'ea's room…old room he was leant against the wall.
"My pharaoh?" said a familiar voice he looked up sadly and saw Ishizu stood over him, she knelt down and looked at him.
"My pharaoh you must not blame yourself Young Joey told me what happened and his powers were greater than you could have fought there was nothing that could be done."
Atem bowed his head in a knowing way realizing she was right. He stood up staring at Ishizu with sadness buried deep into his eyes.
"How long till we reach my temple?"
"A few hours my Pharaoh" she said sympathetically
"That's to long…"he whispered
"My pharaoh please we all knew you had feelings for T'ea but she is gone and we can do nothing about it. I am sorry" she said walking out.
Atem went and sat down on T'ea's bed and put his head in his hands
'Maybe Khaldun was right maybe she is better off with him…what am I saying…he was going to kill her…but I can't go get her…I have no idea where she is…it's pointless.'
The next morning
Atem walked out of his room and out of the boat seeing all of his friends there waiting for him cheering and smiling…all but one.
His heart ached but he didn't show it. Walking on he joined his friends and started the walk to the temple where he would leave everyone and everything he cared for here behind.
They walked through the desert being lead by Ishizu, Marik and Odeon everyone extremely excited about the duel but all totally forgetting the consequences.
'Pharaoh…you can't keep being so depressed she's gone face it'
'Yugi! Never say that EVER!' he yelled at the now frightened Yugi that he had shared a body with for so long and now that would stop soon.
They entered the temple walking down the stone steps and the duel began.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
T'ea sat up in her bed Khaldun sat at the foot watching her.
"Oh hi Khaldun…listen can I ask you something?"
"Of course" He said smiling at her
"Well…,"she said shuffling towards him
"I was wondering if I could see Atem one last time. I know you've done so much for me but…I need to see him one more time…please…"
He smiled at her and put a hand on her shoulder
"Of course" he said smiling at her he stood up drawing back the curtains.
'I just have to make sure she's see's him leaving and then she'll be crushed and have no choice but retreat back to my side'
He pointed a small cupboard in the corner of the room.
T'ea looked at him confused
"What am I supposed to do?" she asked
"Theirs a dress in that cupboard change into it you've been in that outfit for a while now"
Seeing he made sense she went over to the cupboard but turned round as soon as she reached it
"What?"
"Turn round you aint watching!" Khaldun rolled his eyes and turned away.
Inside the cupboard was an ankle length black dress with Dark purple lace adorning the torso and the hem of the dress. She slipped out of her black top and red skirt and slid into the black dress, suddenly noticing the pair of high heeled lace up leather boots also in the cupboard, she removed her white boots and replaced them with the beautiful black ones.
"Ok I'm ready" she said cheerily.
He turned round and his eyes widened seeing the dress on her. She looked beautiful to him.
"Wow…."
"What is it ?"
"N-nothing…let's go" he said. She walked over, her boots making a light tapping sound on the floor. Khaldun opened his cloak and let her inside his warm embrace.
He wrapped the cape around both of them and then they vanished.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yugi fell to his knees, his tears spilling onto the ground. The Pharaoh walked over to him, smiling sympathetically.
"Congratulations".
He knelt in front of Yugi and put his hand on the distressed boy's shoulder,
"A champion doesn't belong on his knees. You achieved a great victory for us both."
Still weeping, Yugi choked out in sobs feeling alone.
"I was focusing so hard on playing the game that I forgot what winning this duel would actually mean. By defeating you, I've sent you away for good."
As soon as Atem was about to reassure Yugi that he had done them both a favor a piercing scream was heard from the back of the temple. Everyone in the temple turned round to the astonishing sight of T'ea with tears streaming down her face with her hand covering her mouth in shock.
"T'ea…"said Atem shocked his eye's wide he started walking towards her but she turned around and entered Khaldun's embrace once more
"Please take me back I didn't realize this was when I'd see him PLEASE!" she said choking on her tears. He looked over at all their sad faces but his eye's fixed on Atem's caring one's and shot him an evil grin.
"Shhh T'ea you shouldn't waste your tears on this fool who thinks he can toy with your emotions" Atem's eyes changed from caring to enraged in an instant
"I'M TOYING WITH HER EMOTIONS? YOU LIED TO HER ALL THIS TIME! WE CARE ABOUT T'EA YOUR FEEDING HER LIES AND DECEIT" he yelled in an outrage.
T'ea looked from Khaldun to Atem then back to Khaldun
'I'm so confused my heads spinning….I don't understand'
she looked up at Khaldun who was staring angrily at Atem. T'ea put a hand on his and stared at him, tears staining her now pale face
"P-please t-t-take me back their I don't want to see him leave" she whispered
He smiled feeling a slight pang of guilt for causing such a precious girl such pain but he soon shook it away remembering why he needed her so much. Reaching down and taking her hand he spoke softly to her to calm her broken soul, she looked up at him with sad eyes.
"Very well we shall leave these fools to continue breaking their own hearts…come" he wrapped her inside his cloak and once again they vanished.
"No…," cried Atem seeing them vanish in a cloud of mist. He walked forward past everyone to where T'ea and Khaldun had been standing. He turned slightly but only so he could see everyone out of the corner of his eye, taking a deep breath, he began to speak.
"I can't leave until I know T'ea safe and away from that man…that thing…I'm sorry…Yugi looks like I'll be sticking around a little while longer"
He was so sad about T'ea he didn't here the few sounds of relief from Joey and Tristan. He walked out of the large room, up the stairs and up to the bright desert of Egypt, for the first time in 5,000 years without Yugi.
