Jounouchi's Place
When Anzu arrived with Mai, she sat on the chair. The conversation had to begin. "Do you think he'll understand? He has to. This is the better option." Anzu wiped her eye. "I don't know what part is scarier, Mai. No one knows how this feels. I'm? I'm helpless, I can't do anything to stop it."
Oh. "I fought Marik, Anzu," Mai reminded her. "I've stared into that fear before. What is it? Why did you just . . ."
"Tear Yuugi's heart into pieces?" Anzu started to lose it. "Knowing is going to be hard enough for them. If I had stayed, if they had watched it . . ." She couldn't do that to them. Satiah? Are you there at all anymore?
Yes. It seems I can hear you again. How are you, Anzu?
I could use some help with Mai. If I'm too far gone before I try to talk it out with Yuugi, then she can tell him. He deserves that.
It is scary Anzu but don't be afraid. Yes my friend, I will help you. We are in this together.

Satiah took over. "There was too much for Anzu to bear. We were all fooled, and now Anzu must bear a terrible burden with me."
"What burden?" Mai asked.
"Hell inside. The inside burns so hot, even I feel it. She has a hell brewing inside of her because of me and the King."
"Because of the extra spirits?" Mai asked.
"Not extra spirits, extra soul parts," Mahado interrupted. "If there was complete separation, it should not have done that."
"What are you talking about?" Mai asked him.
"Ancient Egypt knew different things than your time," Mahado admitted. "Anzu Mazaki only needs to tell the King what she feels inside. He'd understand the truth without explanation, just like I do. I am sorry."
"Yes, but it makes it no easier for her to deal with it. It hurts . A soul isn't a single thing, Mai Kujaku." Satiah said, knowing that didn't help at all. "Do you have puzzle pieces, paper or building blocks?"
"I live with Jonouchi," Mai said. "Of course I have building blocks." She went to his room. "Maybe not?"
"Jonouchi says you are thinking of his miniature rubix cubes in his middle dresser," Mahado said. "He said 'what do you take me for, I don't play with blocks'."
Mai came back with two cubes and a piece of paper. "I only found two."
"That's enough." Satiah took the cubes. "When you think of a soul, you
probably think something like this." She drew a solid green square on a piece of paper. "A single entity." She tackled one side of the cube, solving it. All solid green. "This is closer to the truth." She pointed out the little squares. "There are different parts with different names and meanings, depending on which time you are examining so we won't get into it." She gestured to the whole green area on the rubix cube. "This is the King of Darkness' soul." She messed with the block slightly, this time taking a full two minutes longer and gave it to Mai. "Look at where the green is."
Mai looked at it. "You split it between two places. You split it with reds and blues?" She was impressed. "You're good." She gave it back. "What's it mean?"
Satiah took the second cube. She solved one side completely green. "Great King of Darkness is green." She mixed it up again, with only green and red sides. She gestured to one. "Yuugi Mutoh." She gestured to the other side having green and blue sides. She removed the blue stickers. "The Spirit, all green, but not quite whole." She gave it back to Mai again. "The Spirit has a great many green squares. He is most like the Great King of Darkness. However, he is not all green. Yuugi Mutoh's side has some green but mostly blue. Still, even one green square, binds them together."
