Near the Egyptian homes, two Egyptians lit the door candles while gifts were placed on the ground. As that happened, many wandering spirits flew around while two of them noticed the group arriving. They yelped, quickly moving away with Tristan gasping.
Tristan: Oh, man.
Mokuba: A-a-are those real live ghosts?
Dr. Facilier: They prefer being called spirits.
Téa: Trying to get into those houses?
Dr. Facilier: True.
Yugi: And the food on the porches is for them?
Dr. Facilier: (nods) Seems so.
Duke: Why, it's good ol' fashioned trick-or-treat.
They walked around the area with Joey looking around.
Joey: Four thousand years ago?
Dr. Facilier: (nods) Yes, imagine that.
Voice: Who's there?!
The group turned towards the voice in alarm before they saw the cloaked figure.
Figure: What are you doing here? This is my kingdom. How dare you trespass on these grounds!
Yugi's eyes widened in shock on recognizing the voice.
Yugi: (shocked) Atem?!
Figure: (notices, shocked) Yugi?! Guys?!
The figure removed his cloak, revealing himself to be a man who looked just like Yugi, only older. He had brown skin and he wore sandals, a black tank top, gold jewelry, white pants and a purple cape. He also wore a golden upside-down pyramid with the Anubis Eye symbol around his neck, and had the same hairstyle as Yugi. He was none other than the pharaoh of 5000 years ago, Atem.
Joey, Serenity, Tristan, Duke, Rebecca and Mokuba: Pharaoh!
Atem: What are you doing here? I was about to have a party in my honor!
Téa: We're learning about the secrets of Halloween.
Joey: And we're searching for Bakura.
Atem: Bakura? You mean he's here, too?
Duke: Yeah. In spirit, anyway. If we don't get him back, he might die!
Atem: Then I shall help you find him. It'll be like old times again. Besides, I missed you all.
Mokuba: We missed you, too, Atem.
Just then, Yugi gasped, noticing a familiar spirit boy near a mummy.
Yugi: (pointing) Look there! That ghost-uh, spirit.
Dr. Facilier: Shhh. Quiet. (smirks) Let's sneak up on him.
Just as one of the spirits was drinking and Bakura prepared to take a piece of meat, he heard his friends.
Yugi: Bakura!
Joey: Hold on!
Téa: Wait!
Tristan: Bakura, here we are!
Atem: (notices) Guys, wait!
Kaiba: No!
The spirit vanished with Bakura gasping in fear. Quickly, he entered the house.
Serenity: Hurry, after him!
Quickly, they followed before Dr. Facilier opened the curtain, noticing four people named Seto [the Sorcerer, Teana, and Jono with the last one shadowed in the dark nearby.
Teana: (grins) Enter. Sit. You are all welcome.
Téa: (surprised) Hey, that's us!
Atem: Ah, Teana, Jono, Seto! It's good to see you. I was bringing my friends here to celebrate.
The others looked at Dr. Facilier, whom only nodded. They entered before sitting down. The group was then given some strange food while Rebecca and Duke, looking at the soup, looked a bit disgusted.
Rebecca: Ugh!
The others, noticing as well, passed it down before Tristan, noticing a mummy, gasped in shock.
Tristan: Wah!
Duke: Oh, holy cow! Who the heck is that mummy?
Atem: (sadly) Shimon Muran, my old mentor.
Jono: (quietly) Just don't make a fuss.
Mokuba: He doesn't look very good.
Teana: Oh, don't worry, he's been dead for quite some time now.
Rebecca: So... what's he doing here?
Kaiba: That's a good question.
Some drinks were poured into goblets.
Seto: Once a year, at the feast of the ghosts, we invite him out to sit with us.
He pointed to an empty coffin as the mortals gulped a bit.
Duke: Now I'm GLAD I don't live in Egypt or a Mayan temple.
Teana: Eat.
Dr. Facilier: (smirks) Don't you wish we had a custom like this back home? Hmmm? He-he-he. Dinner for the dead.
Serenity finally screamed in fear when she noticed the mummy nearby her.
Serenity: AAAHH!
Duke, noticing Serenity screaming, went to her.
Duke: Don't worry, Serenity, I'm here for you. That mummy's only dead, he can't-
Just then, they tripped, yelping before some of the pots were knocked to the ground. To their shock, they saw a familiar gasping boy quickly trying to hide from them.
Dr. Facilier: (notices) What?!
The ghostly boy continued to run.
Group: Bakura!
He ran through the curtains, heading outside once more.
Atem: I see him!
Dr. Facilier: Well, children, seems we won't have time for dessert.
Kaiba: (dryly) I hate to ask: What's the dessert?
Dr. Facilier: From what I can tell, basbousa with semolina as the key ingredient...with vinegar, too.
Rebecca: (disgusted) I rather pass.
Some: We're with you.
Atem: I'm not much of a fan of basbousa myself. I'll go with you.
Seto: Be careful, pharaoh.
Atem: Don't worry, I will.
The group looked at the mummy once more before they (except Kaiba and Atem) screamed, running outside. Outside, as the spirits continued with gift getting, the group ran quickly.
Yugi: Come on, Dr. Facilier!
Rebecca: He's getting too far ahead!
Just then, the two noticed Dr. Facilier nowhere while they quickly stopped.
Yugi: Huh?
Rebecca: Where'd he go?
Atem: (notices, points) Everyone, look!
To their shock, they saw Dr. Facilier holding his cape out like a vampire bat, laughing wickedly in the air.
Dr. Facilier: Ha-ha-ha-ha! The time has come! Hurry! Race! Run! Your three mysteries await!
The group followed quickly, following the transformed fiend before they stopped, gasping at the giant Egyptian statues.
Duke: (amazed) Whoa...just look at these!
They walked through the area, looking at the statues.
Mokuba: I'll say, they're giants!
The blond-haired boy peeked a bit inside before noticing one of the statues moaning with sand coming out of its mouth.
Joey: (nervously) Bakura didn't go in there, did he?
Statue: Yeeees.
Tristan: (annoyed) Oh great.
Téa: Uh, go ahead, Yugi.
Yugi: No, uh, maybe Joey should go first.
Kaiba: I agree about that.
Joey: It's all yours, Tristan.
Tristan: No, you first, I insist.
Just then, a hissing sound was heard before a roll of bandaged rags threw itself outside the entrance, landing near Joey.
Atem: Hmmm, I can bet Bakura sent that rag out to show us the way.
Just then, when Joey was about to pick it up, the rag snatched him as he screamed.
Joey: YAAHH!
Group: (shocked) JOEY!
Joey: IT'S GOT MEEEEEE!
He was forced inside while the others quickly dashed after him, shouting all over the Egyptian tomb. The group continued through the area while Joey was continued being pulled inside. Joey was force-pulled through many door-like halls before finally arriving to where a coffin was. The rag snapped off before it fell to the ground. The blond-haired boy panted a bit before a familiar voice through the mummy was heard.
Mummy: (Dr. Facilier's Voice) You, with the mummy wrapping and mummy faces.
The others caught up while Joey pointed to himself in confusion.
Joey: Who, me?
The mummy showed his hands with paintings of the sun and moon.
Mummy: Day is killed by night, summer by winter. Osiris the Sun God destroyed by his brother Darkness, the seasons!
The mummy placed his hands together before a red light glowed inside.
Joey: Is that what the Egyptians thought of Halloween?
Mummy: You tell me!
The mask was removed before the group gasped, noticing Dr. Facilier, now transformed to a mummy.
Dr. Facilier: Why do you wear that costume?
Joey looked at his outfit a bit.
Dr. Facilier: Oy! You're a mummy, boy, because that is how Egyptians dressed up their dead for eternity. Spun around in a cocoon of threads. They hoped to come forth like fresh butterflies in some far dear underworld. (motioning) Know your cocoon, boy. Touch the strange stuff.
Joey: (touches himself) Then everyday is Halloween.
Dr. Facilier: (grins) Oooh yes, every day, Joey. Very good.
Just then, they heard footsteps with moaning.
Joey: (concerned) But what about Bakura?
Dr. Facilier: It may be too late. They're wrapping him up as a gift to eternity now!
The group gasped in shock while noticing shadows below in an opening.
Joey: (frowns) You don't mean like right now?
Dr. Facilier: Save him, Wheeler!
Joey quickly jumped in as he screamed.
Joey: AAAHH!
Serenity: Joey! Don't leave me!
The red-haired girl hopped in the hole as she also screamed.
Serenity: AAAAHHH!
Both of them continued sliding before they came to a floor, crashing toward a coffin. The two groaned a bit before getting up. Just then, they heard a familiar voice.
Bakura's Voice: (in coffin) Joey? Serenity?
Both: Bakura?
Bakura's Voice: Guys...is that you?
Joey: (grins) Of course it's me. We're going to get you out of here.
They looked at the Bakura faced coffin as he spoke weakly.
Bakura's Voice: I'm fading.
Serenity: Oh no!
Joey: (worried) No, you can't leave now! What about all our plans? You said someday you would teach me how to bat left-handed. You're the only friend who ever first saw me as I am instead of what people thought I was and the only person who's never made fun of Rebecca's wearing glasses, despite not needing them.
Bakura's Voice: (groans) Learning to bat left-handed isn't so hard, Joey.
The two grunted, trying to lift the coffin together, though it would not budge. Just then, they gasped, hearing a noise. They heard chanting with both hiding before the Egyptians came inside. Then, the coffin was taken before they left the room. At the corners, Joey posed as a mummy with Serenity fully hiding before they peeked.
Joey: (frowns) Oh great, now what do we do?
The two finally quickly headed off, following them. Slowly and surely, they hid in each area before noticing the Egyptians heading to a tomb. Just then, groaning was heard before the Egyptians gasped, noticing a very bandaged up figure with a partially revealed face moaning. The Egyptians yelped, quickly dropping the coffin, which popped the lid open, freeing Bakura. As they continued running, Joey with Serenity arrived.
Serenity: (grins) I knew using the Wandering Mummy Duel Monster card was a good idea.
Joey: Good thing, too. He's one of the ONLY mummy Duel Monster cards that's absolutely human-like.
The mummy Duel Monster nodded while the lanky mummy went to the white boy in the coffin.
Dr. Facilier: Come along Bakura, you've had your fun.
The Egyptians continued screaming, running in fear while Bakura sat up, noticing the two with real Mummy scaring them. Just then, the white yelped, noticing Dr. Facilier.
Dr. Facilier: You and I have an appointment to keep. You MUST keep it!
Bakura then looked back at the pumpkin, making some echoing sounds of some sort. Just then, Bakura's face started to change to normal color with himself touching his skin.
Bakura: Uh...wha?
Atem: Hey, that looks like-
Dr. Facilier: (horrified) NO!
Bakura quickly picked up his pumpkin with his skin normal again, quickly spinning it. The winds began picking up while the rags were blown off the mummified Shadow Man, whom was forced to revert back to his normal form. Just then, the tornado appeared with both the pumpkin and Bakura lifted toward the sky.
Bakura: AAAAAHHHH!
Heroes: BAKURA!
The man growled in anger at this.
Serenity: (to Wandering Mummy) Thanks again, Wandering Mummy!
The Wandering Mummy disappeared before Joey spoke up.
Joey: (pointing) The air vents. Come on, let's hurry.
Dr. Facilier smirked cruelly, chuckling wickedly.
Dr. Facilier: Yes! Find him! Catch him!
They quickly climbed up through the vents. Outside the pyramid, the group and pharaoh came to the top.
Yugi: Wait up, Joey!
They climbed up with Joey looking back seriously.
Joey: Hurry, but don't fall!
Tristan: Holy cow!
Atem: Don't look down!
Kaiba: Wheeler, don't jinx it, okay?
Téa: Right.
They quickly climbed with Dr. Facilier flying out. As he flew around, Bakura, at the top of the pyramid, frowned to him.
Bakura: This is ONE soul you will NOT have, you devil!
Furiously, Bakura spinned the pumpkin, holding on while flying away just as the group missed him.
All: BAKURA!
The Shadow Man frowned before looking at the others chasing him, smirking a bit. Then, Dr. Facilier, snatching his cape attached, threw it at them.
Dr. Facilier: Hurry, then! Four corners, everyone! Grab on! Ha-ha-ha! He can hide, but if we hurry, we can go seek! Ha-ha-ha-ha!
The group held onto the cape as the griffin flew away. Just then, the wind picked up as the seven yelped, screaming as they flew into the air, flying far away and eventually out of Egypt.
All: WHOA!
Atem: HOLD ON, EVERYONE!
After escaping from Egypt, the voodoo fiend with the others followed the spirit, hoping to catch him.
