Dragons and a Rose w/ Thorns

Back to The Past

Y/N's POV

    Zorc?! With Zack?! Why!? Why would Zack want to deal with that monster but the more important question is how the hell did Zack even find the Millennium Ring? Or did it find him? Uncle Ryou has mentioned that he tried to get rid of it multiple times back then because of Uncle Bakura being an asshole to him but every time he tried to throw it away, it always came back. Even Uncle Tristan tried to get rid of it and it appeared right around Uncle Ryou's neck once again. I swear, it's like this thing calls out to people just to hurt them. "Zorc! What do you want from the boy?! Let him go, don't force him to become your new puppet!" Uncle Bakura shouted as Zack or Zorc laughed, "The boy found me, Thief, not the other way around. He accepted me to use his body as long as I promised him revenge." Zack/Zorc said, turning his gaze to look at my Uncle Bakura, "Sound familiar?" A smirk coming over his lips while Uncle Bakura grunted and glared at the person in front of us.

    "Who does he want revenge on? We haven't done anything to him!" Jaden shouted as Zack/Zorc looked for my cousin then to me as I stiffened in my spot, "Me? But I haven't done anything to him!" I cried as Zack/Zorc laughed, flinching slightly but I pushed down the fear that I feeling at the moment. "Oh, but you have apparently. Around the time that you won Aster's soul back." Zack/Zorc said as my eyes widened, "The small tournament? That's why he wants revenge? Because I beat him?!" I snapped as the boy/demon nodded, "To be honest, this sounds like something the old Seto Kaiba would have pulled." Dad said as I fought back a chuckle. I mean, he's not wrong, Uncle Seto would have done anything to beat my dads in a Duel. "I wouldn't side with a demon, Yami." Uncle Seto started as he walked over and stood next to my Dad's side, "But let's focus on the problem at hand and not pick on me about my past mistakes." He finished as my Dad shrugged but agreed.

    "I think it's time to return to your roots, don't you think, Pharaoh?" Zack/Zorc asked as his dead like eyes fell on me and I felt frozen in my spot once again, "What do you mean by that, Zorc?!" Uncle Malik spoke up, making the smirk grow wider on Zack/Zorc's face, "It's time to play a game… A Shadow Game, one that most of you are familiar with but it's been updated!" Zack/Zorc shouted as everything around us began fading and turning black with purple smoke before a large table appeared in front of us. It looked weird, like it was some kind of game built inside of it but the sight of the table made all the adults gasp loudly. Their gasps caused Zack/Zorc to start laughing while I kept my gaze on the crazy kid slash demon. "N-No, i-it can't be!" Uncle Bakura stuttered as my Dad growled at the sight of the table, "We destroyed that thing twenty years ago!" Aunt Téa said which made Zack/Zorc laugh louder, "It's a new game! And it's time we started playing it! I hope you all know your roles cause there's no prepping for this! Ahahahaha!" Zack/Zorc shouted as the purple smoke started to surround me and I felt myself starting to panic, "Dad?! Pops?!" I cried out as I turned to see my Dad turn to face me quickly as fear came over his face while Pops pushed past Uncle Joey and Uncle Ryou to stand next to my Dad, "Y/N!" I heard them cry out before everything went black.

    When I woke up, I was in a place that didn't look familiar to me, the memories from earlier quickly coming back to me as I jumped out of the bed I was in and looked around the room.

    It was bright, that's for sure.

    The walls looked like they were made of some kind of white stone which hurt to look at since the sun hit it directly. The bed looked like it was made of gold instead of wood and the blankets that once covered me were a white and light golden color. I turned around to see that there was some kind of desk that also looked like it was made out of gold while a huge mirror was attached to it. It kind of reminded me of a vanity. On it, there were small boxes that covered the top while a golden chair was pushed in front of the desk. I furrowed my eyebrows and turned to see that there was also some white couches on one side of the room that surrounded some kind of coffee table. I continued to look around the room to see that there was some bathroom connected to it along with there being glass balcony doors. Wait, balcony doors?
