Chapter Six
Moonlight Destiny
Marie
secures her duel disk onto her arm. She looks at Seto as he secures his own
duel disk to his arm. “I want to duel you, Seto, in the Battle City finals.
I’ll earn my way into a place there!”“Are you
sure, Marie?” asks Seto raising his eyebrows.“I’m a good
duelist! I can fight my way into this tournament!” exclaims Marie.“Well, if
you’re sure, Marie,” says Mokuba holding out a cell phone to her, “Here… take
this with you so that we can keep in touch!”“Thanks,
Mokuba!” exclaims Marie reaching out with her left hand for the phone.Mokuba
grabs Marie’s hand and turns it so that he can see the ring on her ring finger.
His eyes widen as he looks at the marquis diamond. “Is this an engagement
ring?”“Yes,” says
Seto smiling at Marie and Mokuba.Mokuba
throws his arms around Marie’s neck and hugs her tightly. “All right! Welcome
to the family, Marie!”“Thanks,
Mokie!” Marie takes the cell phone and tucks it into a pocket. “Let’s go to
Battle City!”“You are
going to have a visit with my doctor first, Marie,” says Seto, “On the blimp,
of course.”Marie nods.
“All right. I’ll let your doctor examine me, but that’s all I’ll let him do
today. I have some locator cards to win! I’m already behind because I wasn’t
here when the tournament started!”Seto
chuckles. “Very well.”Seto and
Mokuba each take one of Marie’s hands and pull her out to the helicopter that
will be taking them into Battle City.* * *
Marie walks
down the street. She already found another sucker who thought that since she was
a girl she wouldn’t be a tough duelist. It was an easy victory for her to win
against the fool, and now three locator cards reside in a box sheath on her
hip. She looks around her for her next victim.“Would you
care for a duel, Marie Motou?”Marie spins
towards the sound of the voice. She sees a woman in an Egyptian dress with a
veil over her face. She smiles as she sees the duel disk. “So… I see you
entered the tournament too, Ishizu. Why ever would you do that?”“I have my
reasons, as do you,” says Ishizu.Marie nods
her head.“Yes,
Marie… I have three locator cards, would you care for a duel? Winner take all?”
asks Ishizu.“No,
Ishizu… I have other plans. I know the way you duel,” says Marie, “and I know
that I couldn’t win if you’ve already seen the outcome.”“You are
not meant to participate in this tournament,” says Ishizu, “And your fiancé’s
rules do clearly state that all challenges must be accepted.”“I can’t
hide anything from you, can I?” asks Marie with a quiet sigh.“I am
afraid that you cannot,” says Ishizu smiling.“Fine, then
I accept your challenge,” says Marie smiling. She nearly jumps when her cell
phone rings. She pulls the phone from her pocket and pushes the talk button
before she holds it up to her ear. “Marie here!”<<Marie!
It’s Mokuba!>>“Hey,
Mokuba! What’s up? How’s Seto doing in the tournament?” asks Marie.<<Well,
Seto’s in the finals, but that’s not why I called! I thought you might want to
know…>>“Know
what?” asks Marie.<<Yugi
is fighting Joey in a life or death match instigated by the Rare Hunters! And
they have Téa trapped with a crane ready to drop a ton of weight on her if we
try to stop the duel!>> exclaims Mokuba.“Where are
you?” asks Marie as her eyes widen.<<At
the docks!>>“I’m on my
way, Mokuba! I’ll see you in a few!” exclaims Marie turning the phone off and
tucking it in her pocket again, “I have to go, Ishizu, but I will be back for
our duel! Will you wait for me in the café over there? I’ll be back as soon as
I can!”“Do as you
must, Marie. I will wait for our match,” says Ishizu.“Thank you,
Ishizu!” exclaims Marie running away as fast as she can towards the docks. She
hails a taxi as she runs. She climbs into the cab, and it drives off quickly to
go to the docks.Will Yugi control the power
Or will the power control
Yugi?Marie
arrives at the docks just a moment after Tristan gets there with three people
she hadn’t met before. She runs towards the awkward duel field. “T-bird! Oh,
Isis! Yugi! Joey! Téa!”“Hey,
Marie!” exclaims Tristan as Marie runs up beside him, “Have you been having
trouble with robed goons too?”“Not a
bit,” says Marie looking at Tristan. She sees the other three people. “What’s
going on here? Who’re your buds, Tristan? Why are Joey and Yugi dueling like
this? And why is my T-bird tied to a chair with a ton of junk hanging over her
head?”“I don’t
know what’s going on,” says Tristan, “This is Serenity Wheeler, Joey’s little
sister. And Duke Devlin, he’s a friend from school and the inventor of Dungeon Dice.
Also Mai Valentine. She’s another friend of ours. We met her in Duelist
Kingdom!”“Nice to
meet you all! I’m Yugi’s twin sister, Marie Motou! Now what do we have to do to
stop this?”“We can’t
do anything to stop it or that guy will hurt Téa!” exclaims Mokuba.Marie’s
body seethes with anger as she walks up to stand beside Mokuba and Seto. She
watches enraged as Joey and Yugi duel each other, but there isn’t anything she
can do about it and that thought infuriates her even more. She reaches down to
her waist and flexes her fingers as if she were closing them around the scale
that isn’t there.Mokuba sees
Marie reaching for the scale, and he grabs her hand. He squeezes her hand to
comfort her.“We have to
stop this!” exclaims Mai after Yugi takes another blow to his life points.“You’ll do
no such thing!” exclaims a man in a dark robe as he leads a group of four
similarly dressed men towards the docks.“It’s more
of Marik’s goons!” exclaims Duke turning to look at the men.Marie spins
around and glares at the men. “This is your doing! Fine, then I guess that
means you’re my opponents! Prepare to fight!”The men
look at Marie as she runs towards them.Marie
starts to fight the men with a martial art form that hasn’t been seen for many
generations while the others continue to watch the duel.Tristan
keeps an eye on Marie and watches her knocking some sense into her attackers.Marie runs
back over to Seto’s side as the last of the rare hunters crumples to the ground
in an unconscious state. She sees the last attack of the Red-Eyes Black Dragon
against Joey’s life points.Joey swings
over to Yugi using the chain that connects him to the anchor that will drop in
thirty seconds. He grabs the key from Yugi’s box.Everyone
stands in awe hoping that Joey will free them both in enough time.The anchor
drops and drags Joey and Yugi into the water.“Joey!”
screams Mai, “Yugi!”Yugi
surfaces the water.“Yami!”
exclaims Marie jumping into the water and wrapping her arms around Yugi, “Um… I
guess this would be a bad time to mention that I can’t swim!”“I’m
coming, Yugi!” exclaims Tristan jumping into the water and moving to Yugi and
Marie’s side, “Just kick, Marie. I’ll do the rest.” He wraps his arm around
Yugi’s back and helps Marie pull him back onto the dock.“What about
Joey?” asks Téa as Mokuba frees her from the chair she was strapped to.“He didn’t
take his key!” exclaims Duke.“I’ll get
it!” exclaims Tristan.Serenity
jumps into the water and the bandages that she had worn over her eyes flies away
in the light breeze. She finds Joey and unlocks his leg from the anchor. Then
she helps him to swim to the surface.“Joey!”
exclaims Téa seeing her friend break the surface of the water.Joey and
Serenity climb up onto the dock.“Come,
Mokuba, Marie… we are finished here,” says Seto.“I’ll meet
you at the rendezvous point, Seto!” exclaims Marie, “I have a promise to keep!
See you soon!” She runs off across the dock and shrugs her shoulders lightly
when she doesn’t see the rare hunters lying on the ground anymore. She hurries
back to the café and sees Ishizu sitting with a cup of tea. “Hey, Ishizu! I’m
back!”I’ve got Duel Madness in my brain
Monster influence, in my
veins…“If not for
my necklace, I would not have been sure if you would return,” says Ishizu.“Is your
necklace ever wrong?” asks Marie sitting down in front of Ishizu.“Never,”
says Ishizu.“What if
you were to pit your necklace against another item? Say the puzzle or the rod,”
says Marie, “or even my scale.”Ishizu sets
down her cup of tea and looks into Marie’s eyes. “Then the stronger item would
win. I cannot win against the power of a stronger Millennium Item. It would
have the power to change the fate seen by my necklace.”“So which
item is stronger? Your necklace or my scale?” Marie lifts Ishizu’s cup to her
lips and takes the last drink of the tea.“Would you
use your scale in our duel? You have always fought vigilantly against the
spirit of your scale, and against the evil that it contains. Has it been a
losing battle? Will you now embrace that evil to defeat me in a duel?”“You know
the answer. I will not embrace that evil,” says Marie setting down the empty
cup, “but if I could wield the power of my scale without once again unleashing
that evil, I would.”“Let’s
begin our duel,” says Ishizu standing, “Winner take all.”Marie nods
and stands.Ishizu and
Marie head into the street. They shuffle their decks quickly and insert them
into their duel disks. “Let’s duel!”A crowd
begins to gather around Marie and Ishizu as they draw their cards into their
hands.“Wisdom
before beauty, Ishizu. You go first!” exclaims Marie.“Just as I
predicted!” exclaims Ishizu, “I will start by playing one magic card, and then
I will place this monster in defense mode!”“Ceremonial
Bell! That means we have to show each other our hands!” exclaims Marie. She
shows her hand to Ishizu.Ishizu
shows her hand to Marie.“You
realize this only helps me,” says Marie, “My first card will also be in defense
mode, Banisher of the Light, so that any cards sent to the Graveyard are
removed from play!”“I am aware
of your monster’s special ability,” says Ishizu drawing a card. “I will now
summon a different monster in attack mode, Ooguchi, which has the power to
attack your life points directly.”“Getting a
bit desperate already?” asks Marie as Ishizu shows her hand to her. She draws a
card and slides it into a card slot on her duel disk. “I’ll play Soul Exchange
and sacrifice your monsters to summon forth my Dark Magician! And since I
sacrificed your Ceremonial Bell, I no longer have to show you my hand, but
since my Banisher of the Light is still on the field, your cards are removed
from play.”Ishizu
removes her two cards from the top of the duel disk and places them in a
special section of the duel disk that slides out.“Now! Dark
Magician, attack her life points directly!” exclaims Marie, “Dark Magic
attack!”Got a card face down, make a face-up crowd
Face up, showdown, say the
words out loud…Ishizu’s
life points drop to reflect the current attack.“Your move,
Ishizu!” exclaims Marie.“That will
be the last time you attack me,” says Ishizu drawing a card. She places the
card into her duel disk. She pulls a card from her hand and slides it into the
duel disk. She looks at her hand for a moment as if deciding which card to
play. She pulls a card from her hand and places it on the top of the duel disk.
“I will place two magic cards and summon forth Dream Clown in attack mode.”“But that’s
a weak monster! The Dark Magician will crush it in a second and leave her down
to 200 life points!” exclaims a boy in the crowd, “That girl’s either stupid or
crazy!”Marie draws
a card. “First, I’ll summon my Dark Magician Girl by sacrificing my Banisher of
the Light. Next I play a card to boost her attack points. I play the field
magic card Yami! I’ll set one magic card for later. Now, Dark Magician Girl,
destroy that Dream Clown!”The cute holographic
girl raises her short wand and powers up a ball of dark energy.“Hold it
right there, Dark Magician Girl!” exclaims Ishizu.“Huh?” asks
Marie.“I activate
my trap card, Gravity Bind!” exclaims Ishizu, “All of your level four or higher
monsters cannot attack!”“Stay
powered up, Dark Magician Girl! I’ll handle the roadblock!” exclaims Marie.
“Activate trap card, Remove Trap! Destroy Gravity Bind! Now, Dark Magician
Girl, complete your attack!”“Hold, Dark
Magician Girl!” exclaims Ishizu.“Now what?”
asks Marie.“I activate
my magic card, Messenger of Peace!” exclaims Ishizu, “At a cost of 100 of my
life points, your monsters can’t attack!”“Stand
down, Dark Magician Girl!” exclaims Marie, “Your move, Ishizu!” Her right hand
moves to rest on her hip, and she taps her fingers against her hip.Ishizu
draws a card. She slides it into a magic slot on her duel disk. “I will place
one card, and then I will switch my Dream Clown to defense mode and destroy
your Dark Magician!”“That will
power up my Dark Magician Girl even more!” exclaims Marie.“Not when I
use my magic card, Monster Reborn to revive your Banisher of the Light on my
side of the field… in defense mode. No monsters with attack points over 1500
can attack, and now any monsters that are sent to the Graveyard are removed
from play once again,” says Ishizu. She smiles. “Make your move, Marie.”Marie
thinks to herself as she sets her hand on her duel disk preparing to draw her
card. ‘Without a high-powered monster, I can’t destroy the Banisher of the
Light. With that magic card on the field, I can’t attack. I’m stuck! I don’t
think there are any cards in my deck that can help me now!’“What are
you waiting for, Marie?” asks Ishizu.Marie draws
a card. “I’ll pass this turn.”Ishizu
draws a card and slides it into her duel disk. She takes another card and
slides it into the duel disk. She takes the last card from her hand and places
it on top of the duel disk. “I’ll activate the magic card, Change of Heart, to
gain control of your Dark Magician Girl. Next I will play the magic card
De-Spell to destroy my Messenger of Peace! And I will summon my monster, Souls
of the Forgotten! Since you no longer have any monsters on the field, all my
monsters can attack your life points directly! I switch Dream Clown and
Banisher of the Light to attack mode. Monsters! Attack!”Marie turns
her face away as her life points are blown away. She pulls her deck from her
duel disk and shuffles through it. She pulls out the three rarest cards in her
deck, two that she had gained from her opponents earlier on in the tournament
and her Dark Magician Girl card. She opens the box sheath at her hip and pulls
out the three-locator cards. She steps up to Ishizu and holds out the six
cards. “There you go, your prize for winning. See you later, Ishizu.”Ishizu
takes the cards and starts to look at them as Marie walks away. She sees the
Dark Magician Girl on the bottom of the stack, and her eyes widen. She looks at
Marie’s retreating back. “Marie!”Marie
breaks into a run and races as fast as she can down the street.Ishizu
looks at the Dark Magician Girl again.Got to feel the heart, got
to be smart play the card…* * *
Marie meets
Seto and Mokuba at the stadium that the six-locator cards identified as the
location of the Battle City finals. She walks up to Seto and shakes her head
slightly. She wraps her arms around him. She whispers quietly, “I couldn’t
fight my own fate. I lost my Dark Magician Girl. Without the powers of the
Millennium Scale, I’m just a mediocre duelist… especially against the power of
another Millennium Item.”“Not true.
You didn’t have the Millennium Scale last time we dueled,” whispers Seto into
Marie’s ear, “and even though you didn’t win, you did give me a real run for my
money. You’re a great duelist.”“But I
lost,” whispers Marie, “I’ve lost it all… my Dark Magician Girl, my locator
cards, my Millennium Scale, my will to duel… I’ve lost it all.”Seto pulls
Marie into a closer, more personal embrace and holds her tightly. He kisses her
cheek and whispers, “You haven’t lost me.”“Hey, here
come some of the finalists!” exclaims Mokuba.Marie steps
out of Seto’s arms. She turns to look at the group that approaches. She smiles
when she sees Joey, Mai, Yugi, and all their friends. She looks at the ground,
and her mind wanders away for several minutes. She doesn’t hear the
conversation around her, and she doesn’t see the others arrive.“Marie!
Come on!” exclaims Mokuba grabbing Marie’s hand.Marie
blinks and realizes where she is. She looks at Seto with his cold exterior
expression, but she sees a small spark of warmth in his eyes. Then she looks at
Mokuba. “Right!”Mokuba
pulls Marie into the blimp right before the finalists enter.* * *
Marie lies
on an operating table inside the medical lab of Kaiba Corporation’s blimp. She
relaxes as the gas tries to put her to sleep. Her eyes droop, and she succumbs
to the gas. She is completely unaware that on the roof of the blimp, the Battle
City finals are commencing, but it doesn’t matter to her… She lost her place in
the finals anyway. Right now, she just wants to get this operation done.The doctors
keep track of Marie’s vital statistics while they go about the task of removing
the stitches that bind her vulva closed. They don’t speak except for asking for
various tools and reporting her statistics. They don’t want anyone to hear them
talking about what type of monsters would do something like this to a young
girl, especially on her tenth birthday.* * *
Marie puts
on a special outfit, one that she only wore one time before but always kept in
her over-night bag. She pulls her purple pants on over the top of her other
clothing, and she gasps in pain. She takes one of the pain pills the doctor had
given her after she woke up, and she swallows it with some water. She pulls on
a long-sleeved white T-shirt and secures her purple jacket over top. She slides
her feet into her pumps and heads out to watch Seto go into a duel against the
mysterious eighth duelist; the person she knows must be Ishizu Ishtar. She
hurries up to the top of the blimp where the dueling platform is, and she joins
Yugi and his group of friends. She stands restlessly beside them. She looks up
at Seto and smiles to herself. She’s glad that his match came last, and
thankful that her surgery didn’t take very long except for the waking up after
the effects of the anesthesia wore off.“It’s
getting colder up here,” says Téa shivering.Marie pulls
off her jacket and tosses it over Téa’s head. “Take it, T-bird. It’ll keep you
warm.”Téa pulls
Marie’s jacket on. “Thank you, Camaro, but won’t you get cold?”“I don’t
get cold,” says Marie smiling.“If the
eighth duelist doesn’t get here in thirty seconds, we’re calling it a forfeit!”
exclaims Seto.The light
on the elevator flashes signaling that someone is coming up.“Someone’s
coming!” exclaims Seto.All eyes
turn to the elevator as the doors open, and a woman in Egyptian clothing steps out
onto the duel platform.“How dare
you keep me waiting? Who are you?” asks Seto angrily.The woman
removes her veil. “You may call me Ishizu Ishtar, but I am not the duelist who
you are waiting for, Seto Kaiba. She is already here. The eighth duelist is
Marie Twin, guardian of the Pharaoh’s Crypt.”“Me?” asks
Marie, “But you won our duel!”“That may
be true, but still you are the one meant to complete this fight, with my
deck! When I defeated you, I received a card I was never meant to possess. I will
return it to you if you would duel for me,” says Ishizu, “and as the guardian
of the Pharaoh’s Crypt, you must obey my request! It is a guardian’s duty.”“I could
never refuse a chance at a rematch!” exclaims Marie, “If it’s my destiny to
fight Seto now, then that’s what I’ll do! And I’ll duel as a guardian as is my
right and duty!”Ishizu
climbs down from the duel platform quickly as Marie pulls off her white shirt
and purple pants. She passes the duel disk with her deck already in place to
Marie.Marie
secures the duel disk to her arm quickly. She jumps into the air, grabs the
railing, and pulls herself over it onto the dueling arena. She flinches from
the pain coursing through her lower body, but she tries to hide her pain from
everyone as she stands with her legs spread apart. She now wears a tight,
cream-colored tank top with a matching cream-colored skirt. Her skirt is split
along both sides so that her legs are revealed all the way up to her hips, but
the bandages that the doctors put into place are, thankfully enough, not
visible. It appears to be more of a loincloth than an actual skirt.Yugi gasps
when he sees Marie dressed like this.The most
surprising thing about Marie’s appearance is actually the markings on her skin,
the Egyptian hieroglyphics that scroll down her arms and legs.“Shuffle
the deck as much as you want, Marie. You will know the strategy that my
Millennium necklace showed me when you see the cards that you draw,” says
Ishizu.Marie nods.
“I will free brother Marik from the curse of the Millennium Rod! That is my
duty as a guardian of the tomb. Let’s duel, Kaiba!”“You’re a
tomb-keeper too?” asks Seto with wide eyes. “What exactly are you
guarding?”“Long ago
in ancient times… A sacred game was played in both spirit and mind,” says Marie
raising her right hand into the air, “Seven items hold the mystery, Puzzle,
Eye, Necklace, Ring, Rod, Scale, and Key!” When she says the word scale, the
Millennium Scale appears in her hand.“Where did
that come from?” asks Duke staring in shock at Marie.Marie
lowers the Millennium Scale down to her waist where a strap appears to hold it
in place. “I will be needing that later, when it’s time that we discover which
item has more power, the Millennium Scale or the Millennium Necklace! It’s time
to duel, Seto!”Seto draws
his hand from his deck.Got to find a way just to play just a little game
Got a compulsion, want to be a
champion…Marie draws
the five cards for her hand. The wind whips at her clothing showing more and
more of her flesh as her skirt rises from the force.An image
flashes through Seto’s mind, and he falls into its hold.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seto walks
into the bathroom and smiles.Marie sits
in the bathtub with her eyes closed. Her body is completely hidden from view by
the bubbles of the bubble bath.Seto
quickly removes his pajama pants and his bikini briefs. He slips into the
bathtub with Marie and sits down beside her.Marie opens
her eyes and smiles at Seto. “Will you wash my back?”Seto nods
and lifts a bar of soap. “Turn around.”Marie moves
to sit in front of Seto with her back facing him.Seto
lathers up Marie’s back and massages the soap into her skin. He pulls Marie
backwards so that her back rests against his chest, and he starts to wash her
stomach.Marie sighs
delightedly as Seto’s hands massage her skin.Seto slides
his hands around on Marie’s body, and he touches her in places and ways that
make her moan joyfully. He starts kissing her neck. “I love you.”Marie turns
around in Seto’s arms and presses her chest up against his as she kisses him.
“I love you, Seto!”“We should
get you ready,” says Seto smiling slyly, “I’ll wash you, and then you can get
dressed.”“Okay!”
exclaims Marie nodding.Seto begins
his meticulous task of scrubbing every inch of Marie’s body for her. He lathers
up her hair with the shampoo and rinses the soap away. “All done!”“Okay… now
close your eyes so I can get out, Seto,” says Marie moving to the other side of
the bathtub.“My eyes
are closed,” says Seto closing his eyes.Marie looks
at Seto and climbs from the bathtub.Seto opens
one eye and looks at Marie. “You are very beautiful, Marie…”Marie spins
around quickly and catches Seto peeking at her before he closes his eye tight,
but only after getting a very good look at her unclothed front side. “Seto! No
peeking! The last thing I want is you to be staring at me while I’m getting
dressed!”“I would
only be staring at parts of you!” exclaims Seto.Marie grabs
a towel and wraps it around her wet body. She smiles as she turns around and
sits down in front of the vanity mirror. “You can look now.”Seto opens
his eyes and looks at Marie. He lifts the soap and begins to wash his own body
while Marie brushes her hair and sprays in her conditioner before blow-drying
it.“Do you
really think I’m beautiful?” asks Marie turning around to look at Seto. Her
towel slides up a little to show some of her thigh.Seto
smiles. “I wouldn’t have said it if I didn’t mean it, Marie.”“Thank
you…” Marie stands up and walks over to the door. She looks over the two
outfits that Seto had brought out, a white and black for him and a purple and
deep blue for her. She keeps her back turned towards Seto as she removes her
towel and dries her skin quickly. She rubs her hands along her arms as she
drops the towel to the floor. “My skin feels really smooth now. What kind of
soap is that?”“I have no
idea!” exclaims Seto chuckling as he watches Marie.“I bet Grandpa
would have a cow if he knew about this!” exclaims Marie pulling the deep blue
tank top over her head and smoothing it down over her body.Seto
snorts. “That old man!”Marie pulls
on the purple slacks and slides into the purple jacket. She turns towards Seto.
“I’m going to head back to my room. I’ll see you and Mokuba at breakfast.”“Marie,
wait!” exclaims Seto standing up.Marie looks
at Seto, dripping wet and completely nude. Her cheeks turn bright red, but she
can’t seem to turn her eyes away from his body. “What is it, Seto?”Seto climbs
from the bathtub and walks over to Marie. He pulls her into a quick
open-mouthed kiss.Marie
slides her hands along his body as she leans in to kiss him.Seto grabs
Marie’s arms as her hands explore the area of his body beneath his waist. He
pushes her away slightly.“What’s
wrong?”“Not now…
Wrong place, wrong time… It should wait… At least until night, and the bathroom
isn’t the best place either,” says Seto, “but tonight… in bed.”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Seto shakes
his head to clear the thought from his mind. He looks at Marie and sees her
concerned expression. Then he turns his eyes to Ishizu and sees her smirking
back at him. He scowls in return.“I’m
waiting, Seto. Are you going to make your move or would you like me to go
first?” asks Marie.“I’ll go
first!” exclaims Seto.Got to find a way inside
this fantasy…Marie nods
her head and watches Seto as he draws his first card. She blushes. “So… what
vision of the future did Ishizu just show you, Seto?”“One of
us,” says Seto keeping his eyes on his cards.“Knowing
her it was probably something erotic to try to distract you from our match,”
says Marie looking at the cards in her hand, “but don’t worry about that… She
won’t try it again.”“Are you
going to try to stop her if she tries?” asks Seto smirking.“I can,”
says Marie, “My Scale is stronger than her Necklace. I can overpower her
vision.”Seto and
Marie make several plays with their cards, not speaking again except to
announce their movements.Marie remains
calm as her life points and deck get dwindled down to almost nothing. Then she
plays a trap card.Seto’s eyes
widen as he realizes that he placed all of Marie’s high-powered monsters and
magic cards into her graveyard just so that she could reverse both of their
graveyards with their decks. His deck now only contains a few cards, and once
he can no longer draw a card, the duel is over.Marie
stares at the cards in her hand. “Seto… do you believe that we are the masters
of our own fate?”Seto smirks.
“You know the answer to that question. Of course I make my own destiny! No one
controls Seto Kaiba!”“Yes… I
know. I just wanted to hear you say it,” says Marie looking up at Seto. She
smiles. “Ishizu wanted me to duel you because she said it was my destiny as a
guardian of the Pharaoh’s tomb. I don’t want to win this duel simply because
it’s my destiny. I don’t believe that all things are preordained! So I’m going
to finish this duel my way! And I’m going to start by discarding this card… the
key to the strategy that Ishizu’s Millennium Necklace foresaw.”“Marie!
Don’t!” exclaims Ishizu with wide eyes. “You must win against Obelisk the
Tormentor!”“I will
win!” exclaims Marie placing a card in her Graveyard, “By the power of the
Millennium Scale!” She reaches down and grabs the Millennium Scale from her
hip. She pulls it up into the air above her head. ‘Mariko! Return! Grant me
your power!’‘Oh, so now you want my help, little
Marie,’ whispers a deep, masculine voice within Marie’s mind.‘Not exactly, Mariko! I don’t want your help. I just want
the control of the Millennium Scale, and I need to use you to do that! You’ve
used me long enough! This is just payback!’ thinks Marie with a smirk.The man appears to Marie’s mind’s eye. He stands just a
head taller than Marie with wild blond hair highlighted with black streaks. He
whispers, ‘What are you blabbering about?’‘You’ll see in just a minute, Mariko!’ thinks Marie. She
sees Mariko in front of her in the darkness, and she sees her own mental body
standing in the void of her mind.‘I think you have gone a touch insane in my absence,
Marie!’ exclaims Mariko furiously.‘Wrong… I am finally seeing things clearly,’ thinks Marie
with a sigh, ‘I have seen Pharaoh Yami! I have seen the way he controls the form
of Yugi Motou! I know now the way that we must control my body! I am perfectly
willing to do this against your will if I must, but I believe that you would
willingly accept the chance at the added power.’‘Added power?’ asks Mariko, ‘How do I gain this added
power?’Marie smiles. ‘Simple. We become one person. Instead of
one of us controlling the body, we both will control it at the same time. We
merge our mental beings. But we must be of one mind to do it! So you
must agree to my will. Your plans of greatness mean nothing to me! I would much
rather control the financial world than the real one!’That’s the key, I’m a split personality
Duel Sensation, that’s my
destiny…‘The financial world would be enough for me!’ exclaims Mariko,
‘I agree to your terms, young Marie! We will do things your way, if we can!’“Ma-Ri-Ko!”
screams Marie at the top of her lungs.“Marie,
no!” screams Seto taking a step forward.Marie
opens her arms and steps towards Mariko. She embraces him for a moment before
their bodies slide into each other, and they become one person.A swirling
wind starts up around Marie and whips her clothing fiercely around her body,
but it does little to show off any additional flesh to Seto’s hungry eyes.“Marie!” screams
Seto.Marie’s
spiked hair flares out within the confines of her ponytail holder. Her bangs
stand up into high, arched spikes. Her tanned skin seems to darken a shade or
two, yet the hieroglyphics tattooed on her arms and legs seem to glow brightly.
The pumps that she wears change into a set of white stiletto heels adding four
inches to her height. Her locket, shaped like a set of dog tags, dangles around
her neck and shimmers in the light from the hieroglyphics. She places the
Millennium Scale back at her side where the strap secures itself around the
scale to hold it in place.“Mariko!”
exclaims Seto glaring at her.“I am glad
that you remember me!” exclaims Mariko with a deeper, more masculine voice than
that of Marie. “Now… I will continue with my play. The Dark Magician Girl is
not here within the deck I have, but it is my favorite card and I cannot go
into a duel where I do not use it. So I suppose I will have to use the power of
my Millennium Scale to summon forth my Dark Magician Girl!”“How?” asks
Seto.The eye on
the Millennium Scale flares as Mariko draws a card from her deck and places it
on the field in attack mode.The
holographic projectors react to reveal the Dark Magician Girl.Mariko
smiles. “Do as you will, Seto Kaiba!”Seto looks
at his hand. He looks at the four monsters that Mariko has on her side of the
field. He smiles at the cards he holds within his hand.Got to think be wise, realize the situation
Animate your cards, make a
power combination…“I will use
this magic card to sacrifice your monsters and summon forth Obelisk the
Tormentor!” exclaims Seto sliding his magic card into his duel disk, “But for
you, Marie, I will spare the Dark Magician Girl, and take your other three
monsters!”“Do your
worst, Seto!” exclaims Mariko as Seto plays the Egyptian God Card.“Now…
Obelisk, attack!” Seto looks at Mariko.Marik
Ishtar stands below the arena, watching the duel with interest. He holds the
Millennium Rod tightly. The symbol of the eye on the Millennium Rod flares with
an intense light.Images
flash through Seto’s mind, and he recalls the tablet showing him the Blue-Eyes
White Dragon.“Stop!”
exclaims Seto.The
holographic monster stops its attack and stands down.Seto looks
at his side of the field and sees the two monsters he has in play. He takes a
deep breath as he looks at his hand again. He sees the Blue-Eyes White Dragon,
his favorite monster, tucked into his hand. He glances up at Mariko.“Is your
turn over then, Seto?” asks Mariko, “Will you not attack this turn?”“No attack
this turn, Marie,” says Seto as the eye on the Millennium Rod flashes again and
more images start to pour into his mind.Marie draws
a card and places it into a slot on her duel disk. “Very well… I am ready. Let’s
see the true strength of Obelisk the Tormentor!”Seto snaps
out of the reverie caused by the Millennium Rod. He draws his card. “I
sacrifice my two monsters to bring forth the Blue-Eyes White Dragon!”Summon the Dragon. Blue-Eyes White
Send in the Swords of
Revealing Light…“What?”
asks Mariko with wide eyes as Seto removes his cards and places his dragon on
the field.“Oh, no!”
exclaims Ishizu.The eye on
the Millennium Scale flares at the same time as the eye on the Millennium Rod. The
light of the Millennium Rod douses the light emanating from the Millennium
Scale.“The
Millennium Rod is reacting to Kaiba!” exclaims Yugi looking at Marik.Marik
shakes the Millennium Rod angrily as he tries to figure out what’s going on
within the item he possesses.“Attack,
Blue-Eyes White Dragon!” exclaims Seto, and the Blue-Eyes White Dragon blasts
the Dark Magician Girl.Marie falls
to her knees as the glowing of her hieroglyphic tattoos fade. Her hair falls
back down into graceful spikes, and the shoes upon her feet transform back into
the pumps she typically wears. She takes a deep breath and winces in pain. “The
Millennium Scale is stronger than the Millennium Necklace, but the Millennium
Rod is stronger still!”Seto moves
over to Marie’s side quickly and helps her to her feet. “Are you all right,
Marie?”“I am as
good as I can be,” whispers Marie taking a deep breath, “but I think now I need
to rest.”“Then rest
you will,” whispers Seto.Marie leans
against Seto as he helps her towards the elevator.Mokuba
grabs Marie’s clothes from the floor and hurries after Marie and Seto.- You need to be logged in to leave a review for this story.You need to be logged in to leave a review for this story.
