Chapter V: Ceremony Completion!

Rose's P.O.V.

A bright light sphere suddenly surrounded me and I was lifted up into the air! Higher and higher, it lifted me. And then I felt something burst out of my back! Then my forehead sprouted a horn! And the last thing also sprouted… a tail! From there, my eyesight, hearing, smelling… everything began to enhance! My eyes can now see the walls clearly, even though they are far away. I could see the pictures, the hieroglyphics very clearly. I could now hear everything around me. And my sense of smell could pick up anything in this room! Everything was changing in me: strength, sense, sight, and more.

The sphere of light began to drop to the floor. As soon as it reach the floor, it disappeared and left me to face gravity again. And it is a lot more heavier with the wings and all that extra parts.

" So Rose, how does it feel with your new powers?"

" Heavier than ever… can't gravity give me a break?" Isatho and Marik chuckled.

" Should have known you would say something like that. Well, you are now to receive the letter and the items you are to receive ."

" A letter? And items too?" Isatho took a envelope from Robert and came over to me.

" Here. You were to receive this if you became what you are." She held it out. I took it and opened it gently. It looks really old. And inside it, was, of course, a letter. I unfolded it and read it. And again several times. It doesn't make sense in my head. My thoughts kept swirling around in my head like colors of paint mixing together. What does this all mean? " I see you are confused. Don't worry, you'll understand what it means." Robert handed a wrapped box package, which she handed to me. I unwrapped it and opened the box. Inside… is Duel Monsters cards! Three is Blue Eyes White Dragon, one is the Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon, one is the Red Eyes Black Dragon, and also one Red Eyes Metal Dragon! On the bottom were wrapped cards. Undoing that, I found a Polymerization card, a Black Metal card for turning Red Eyes Black Dragon to Red Eyes Metal Dragon, another card I've never seen before called Ancient Ritual Polymerization, and… OMG… this card… is the Purple Eyes Ultimate Metal Silver Dragon! OH MY GOODNESS! If Kaiba is real, he'll try to steal this card! Its attack is 6500 and its defense is 6450. Is this the God card mentioned in the letter? My question is how in the world could something like a beautiful and strong dragon card get forgotten!

Isatho handed another package to me. I put the box and cards on a table Robert brought out and took the small, slender package. Inside it was a wand! The colors of gold, white, red, black, and purple mixes together on the wand, giving itself a beautiful shine to it when caught in the light. About 13 inches long and 1 inch thick at the base growing skinny upward, this thing can fit pretty much anywhere on a backpack. Along with the wand is a little piece of paper that has spells and descriptions of these spells. What, did my grandmother ( got tired of adding the greats onto it, okay?) go to Harry Potter's world and became a witch? The world will never know… and what's this? Another piece of paper, saying that it contains some things… like a Phoenix feather, Bahumat scale, Ifirit horn, ect. Aeons? Wow…

" You still awake or are you sleeping standing up?"

" Huh? Oh, yeah, I'm awake, just thinking." Isatho stood in front of me and was trying to get my attention to hand me another package. I put the wand down and picked up the biggest package that is now passed down to me. When I unwrapped it, it looks a lot like the Tiger Racket in Final Fantasy IX. The only difference is… it's starting to transform! I nearly kept a hold on it as it grew sharp spikes on the three tops, the middle the longest, and a small pair of wings like mine grew around the top middle! And right now, I'm pretty ticked for not being warned of that!

" Sorry Rose. I forgot about that happening." I shot Isatho a death glare, but she missed it. " The Holy Life rod transforms according to the owners heart and soul."

" Holy Life…" I looked at the weapon I now hold. " This is really new to me…"

" Rose." I looked at Isatho. " Here. This last package is something the first Rose hopes that you can use." The last package is a bit smaller, but still a bit bigger too, compared to the wand. I took the package, and I could have sworn that Isatho has this look of hope of whatever it is I now need to unwrap that it would work. I opened it and found a necklace with a large, golden pendent. And all over it has Egyptian hieroglyphics and a large symbol of a eye-like picture… similar to Yugi's Millennium Puzzle!

(Life Continues, But Filled With Nothing)

Why is it that Life continues as it is,
While I feel so empty deep inside?

Maybe the reason why the reason is,
That I'm pretty much cast aside.

Even though this is slowing me down,
I'll strive to find my Life side.

My mind is blank,
Nothing but space.

But why is it,
That I strive to find my place?

It feels so hopeless.
And very pointless.

But I will continue,
To fill my emptiness.

So if you ask,
" Why do you even try?"

I will reply,
" I hope for my hopes to fly"
