Chapter 37: The Escape
Aeru reappeared inside his chamber and went up to his throne. But before he could sit down, Shadow Dartz burst in and Aeru gave an annoying sound.
"What is it Dartz?" asked Aeru facing him.
"Did you get the pharaoh's soul?" asked Dartz.
"No," said Aeru sitting down giving a yawn.
"WHY NOT!" yelled Dartz.
Aeru gave out a sigh and aimed his hand at Dartz. Dartz gave a wonder look then all of a sudden, Dartz was kneeling down by some force that was pushing him down against him. Dartz tried to break free, but failed and then, he started to feel pain on his kneel, because his body felt like it was getting crushed while he was kneeling.
"Say your sorry for yelling at me," said Aeru just sitting there aiming his hand at him.
"I'm…….sorry," said Dartz feeling pain. Aeru left him and Dartz fell on the ground with a thud.
"You should be more greetful for me that I brought you here you know," said Aeru, " Now leave!"
Dartz got and gave a small growl and left his chamber. Dartz walked down the hallway with a couple of black hooded figures standing still against wall guarding Aeru's walkway. By the time Dartz reached the end of the hallway and reached his chamber, Varon, Alister, and Rafael were inside.
"You three! We need to get the soul of the pharaoh so I can summon the great beast! And the four duelists as well since they carry the one of the five knights," said Dartz.
"One thing mate, there are three of us, and three of us are after Joey, Seto, and the pharaoh," said Varon, "You two more if you want the job done mate."
"Who do we know that will get the other two," asked Alister.
"I found two people that will be working with you guys," said Dartz grinning. Two black hooded duelists came in and pulled their hoods down.
"My name is Roy," said the first figure.
"And my name is Maverick," said the second figure.
"These were the two commanding officers that didn't play the Seal of Orichalcos," said Dartz, "They will be working with you."
"I see, just because you two are commanding officers doesn't mean were best buds and you can't order us around," said Rafael.
"You stay out of our way, we stay out of yours. And don't worry, we basically don't boss people around," said Maverick. Both duelists lifted up their hoods and left Dartz chamber.
Meanwhile…The real Rafael was walking back and forth inside his chamber and got a plan. Varon was snoring in the other prison next to him and Alister was just sitting on his bed. Rafael went up to the bar and started making noises.
"Lalalalalalalala," screamed Rafael, "Lalalalalalala!"
This made Varon wide awake and fell on his bed when he heard his screaming sound, Alister quickly got up and looked around to see if it was an earthquake coming, and the guard fell of his chair.
"What the hell," yelled the guard getting up. He looked at Rafael and got extremely angry. He walked up to him in front of the bars that was between them and yelled at them, "SHUT THE HELL UP YOU STUPID IDIOT! YOU MADE FALL OF MY CHIAR WHILE WATCHING TV!"
Rafael just stood there and grabbed his hood. He pulled it down and guy was trying to pull it up, but before he hands could get to his hood, Rafael grabbed his collar and slammed him against the iron bars. The guy fell unconscious (well duh) and Rafael tried to find the keys. He found it, grabbed it, and unlocked his prison door. He stepped outside and unlocked the others. Rafael grabbed the guy's hood and put it on him. After that, Rafael put the guy in his cell room and locked the door and then put his hood on and showed it to the guys.
"How do I look," asked Rafael.
"Like you belong with them, but we don't have on," said Alister.
"Leave it to me," said Rafael.
All three left the prison and Varon and Alister stayed in a corner and Rafael went up. He saw two other black hooded duelists and Rafael went up to him. He gave out a cough and tried to change his voice. When he went up to them and spoke to them, he couldn't change his voice since he was having trouble changing it, and hoped his voice won't be recognized
"Uh, Master Aeru says to change swift. You can go now," said Rafael.
"Really? Time passes really fast," said the first black hooded figure.
"Yeah…well, we better go or else Master Dartz will yell at us, though I wonder why we listen to him," said the second hooded figure. When the two hooded figures made the corner where Alister and Varon was, they got one hell of a beating and two hooded duelists came out of the corner heading towards Rafael.
"Alright, we got the hoods, now we scram," said Varon.
"Not yet, we need our decks," said Rafael.
"I forgot about them! I'll beat those blocks if they did anything to my deck," yelled Alister.
The three left and walk down the hallway. They didn't know where they were heading, but it was better than standing around. Just then, the fake Rafael, Varon, and Alister were walking down the same hallway as them and heading towards them.
"Uh, Rafael. Those other people that look like us, but fake ones, are heading our way," whispered Varon.
"They suspect us if we turn back," whispered Alister.
"Just act naturally," whispered Rafael.
The three passed each other and continued walking. But the fake Rafael soon stopped and turned around facing the three hooded duelists.
"You three," yelled Rafael.
The three hooded figures turned around facing Rafael. The real Rafael gave out a cough and spoke to him, "Uh. We were going to change swifts with the others."
Rafael just gave a small growl and turned his back on them, "Fine. Get going!"
The hooded figures continued walking and this made the fake Varon wonder.
"Rafael, did you seem to notice those three were EXACTLY the same heights as us," asked Varon.
"Some people have the same heights as others Varon," said Alister walking, "Stop being an idiot."
The fake duelists continued walking and the real duelists were watching them from the corner of the hallway.
"Whew, that was a close one," said the real Varon.
"Come on, we got to find our decks," said Rafael.
The three hooded figures continued walking and after awhile they finally found it. There decks were in a black colored duel-disk, inside a small iron cage, with locks on it and each cage had a black hooded figure guarding it.
"Will take the job from you guys now," said Alister.
The three hooded figures left and walked away. Rafael went to the first cage, Varon went to the second cage, and Alister went to the last cage. They don't have a key to open them so somehow, they needed something. Rafael took one of those staffs that were being used to light the place and hit it against the lock. It took a couple of hits, but Rafael managed to open it. He took out the black duel-disk from the cage and went through the deck. It was his because Rafael had guardian cards and all his cards were in. Varon opened his cage next and then Alister. After that, Alister put the staff away and both grabbed the black duel-disk and check the deck. It belonged to them.
"Great! I got my armor deck back," laughed Varon.
"Mine too," smiled Alister.
The three put on the black duel-disk on their arm and started to leave.
Meanwhile…
One hooded figure was stepped in the room where Rafael, Varon, and Alister were being kept and when he turned around, he saw a guy wearing lying on the floor and hooded figure realize that the prisoners escaped. He went to the switch and turned on the alarm. Red Lights were flashing and loud speakers were turned on.
Prisoners have escaped.
Prisoners have escaped.
Red lights were flashing, on and off, on and off, the real Rafael, Varon, and Alister started making a run for it heading anywhere that could lead them to an exit. The found a room and went inside, and there was a huge helicopter in the room.
"Guess this is how they get to the city," said Alister.
"Less talking, more escaping," yelled Rafael. All three went inside the helicopter and Rafael turned on helicopter's engine on. The helicopter started making loud sounds and was hovering little off the ground. A couple of hooded figures burst inside the helicopter and saw the copper hovering. Rafael pushed the controllers forward and left the chamber. The hooded figures just stood there and the fake Rafael, Varon, and Alister came in.
"Looks like they got away," said Varon.
"Not likely," said Rafael. Rafael was about to disappear when all of a sudden, Aeru came in.
"No. Leave them, Phase two of my plan has begun," said Aeru staring at the copper flying away.
Aeru: Now the fun begins, heh heh heh. And little Yugi is ready…for combat. HAHAHAHAHAHA!
