It felt like days wed been planning the confinement of the pharaoh.
Yugi and the theif king had taken most the day mapping out with the others.
Though we were being treated well, i could not shake the distrust I felt for these thugs. Yugi would come to the small shack in the night explaining to me what was to happen."How do you know were promised freedom yugi?!" I explained "your taking a thieves word for the sake of ra!"
Yugis excitement turned south his tired eyes grew concerned
"Why cant you trust me atleast?" His soft hands cupped my cheek.
I moved away from him closing myself off.
"I need to think about this, a secret tomb? This curse? All these things even black magic?" I muttered to myselfYugi sighed "alright, please think about it we need to do this or we cant have a life together"
That was the other thing.
My feelings for Yugi werent as deep as his feelings for me. I could tell this was much more then just freedom. He wanted a life together, that wasnt a promise I was willing to make..yet..I left the hut in frustration and began walking towards the valley.
My thoughts seemed to drag me far into the ancient kings valley.
The plan to use me to lure the pharaoh to this tomb where the god of chaos was said to be born from the hatred that fueled its existence. To speak his name and contain him within the cold walls. Yugi said that the king had mentioned a sacred dagger made by the gods to send him to be devored by ammit so his soul could not longer rebirth as the tale so goes. Kill the monster that had effect so many lives.
I felt rage in me once again for that man. How he lied to me...what he did to Yugi his own brother. I collpased in the cooling sand pounding my first to the dirt. I screamed out to the sky that had just turned dusk.
The warm breath on my back nearly drew the life from my face.
A low snarl seemed to whisper in my ear I quickly turned around to see him.. The beast, the same beast in had seen before long ago. Its fur was dirty and stained with dried blood
Drools dripped from its mouth.
Its long fangs exposed gleemes white in the briskly twilight."Its...you.." My lips quivered
The beast took a step forward I quickly got to my feet and began to run down the dune deeper into the valley.I had realized how far I was from camp.
I began to scream for help hoping some of the watchmen would hear me.My legs and feet seem to carry me deeper and deeper I heard the giant foot steps behind me a harsh roar gaining speed as I looked around for any tomb exposed to hide in or atleast find safety in.
The beasts teeth gripped my dress top shredding it tripped over the torn pieace the beast faced me now his snarky jar inches from my neck.
I squeezed my eyes shut its warm breath nearing my end now."Please.." I wimpered.. "Please"
The beast yowlled in pain as a spear had been thrown into its theigh.
"Run!! Runn!!!" I heard in the distance my eyes blinded by my tears in crawlled out from the beast wimping in pain. Another spear shot through to its rip
"Quickly we need to kill it!!" Another voice shouter
It must be Yugi and the others my exictment grew
As I stood up my legs shaking from the nerves in felt my heart flying. Thank the gods-
A loud low rumble began to tremble at my feet.
The beast began to regain its stance its body moved so quickly as it leaped toward my being. The world almost as if in slow motion devored me and the beast into the depths of its belly.I felt like I was falling forever and yet so quickly the beasts large claws seemed to incase it to its body as though trying to seei comfort in its last moments. Its fur smelled familiar almost sweet a scent that prepared me for the death that was coming.
With a loud thud my vision went black
------------------------------------------------------------"YOU FOOL" the theif king shouted "WE NEEDED THAT BEAST ALIVE!!"
"AND WHAT OF HER? SHES DOWN THERE WE HAVE TO SAVE HER" Yugi yelled back "we cant just-" the theif king smacked Yugi "have you listened at all stupid boy?" He scuffed "the pharaohs bother appears to have all the heart..."
Yugi shouted to the others
"Will no one help me?? She...she cant be gone" he leaned over the broken earthTears began to soak the dirt the kings firm hand gripped on yugis shoulder.
"She may be gone... But the beast that took her life lays in this pit, alive and the pharaoh hes all responsible for it"Yugi clenched his teeth
"Then they shall pay for taking her from me...."
