The Queens Gambit: Snippet Collection

The Queens Gambit: Snippet Collection

This snippet I dedicated this to my friend on Quotev Light guardian35.

Talking with you gave me back my motivation and I hope you enjoy the little snippet!

A little warning Kihana and Sehrazat Decks could change with time because I suck at Duel Monsters and don’t know anything about it so the nicknames they have in the Dueling World could also change. You will see what I mean when you read the snippet.

I made a base art for this chapter so go to my DevianArt or Tumblr to see it.

If you can see it this is the original link to the base: https://www.deviantart.com/yummehcrayons/art/FPD-Bags-n-babes-base-259082967

And to be sure here is what I made out of it: https://www.deviantart.com/empressofthesun/art/Off-to-Duelist-Kingdom-932075230

Snippet 3: Duelist Kingdom

Pegasus really had a lot of money to spend if he could book a luxury cruiser to bring all these duelists to the Duelist Kingdom. Or it was his.

Sehrazat admitted she was a bit overwhelmed.

All this because he wanted her Millenium Fragment? And nobody had a clue.

“I’m sorry.”, she heard the voice of her dear Partner.

Afya, the spirit of the Millenium Fragment, materialized at her side.

The once queen of all Egypt looked sorrowful with the same orange eyes as Sehrazat and…her mother at her.

Sehrazat was still surprised how both could be twins, only Afya was taller, had longer hair and her face looked more mature and beautiful.

“If only I had beaten Pegasus in his twisted game, then you didn’t need to make this journey to save Amira’s soul.”, said the spirit sadly and ashamed of herself.

“Afya, I don’t give you the fault her.”, Sehrazat reminded her darker half. “Only Pegasus and his freaky eye! We will get mama back! If we have to beat Pegasus at a children’s card game, then so be it. He won’t use the same trick on us again twice!”

Afya nodded determinedly at her partner and descendant.

“True words you speak child of mine. And if this didn’t work we can always beat Pegasus up. I would prefer this more.”

Now Sehrazat had to laugh, which earned her strange looks from the other duelists in the line for the boarding and a raised eyebrow from Kihana beside her.

She pointed at the air beside her mouthing the name she had given her ancestor. Kihana understood and let them be.

“I love how you are always ready to beat people up, Gran-Gran.”, she told full of affection Afya.

Her “Gran-Gran” puffed her cheeks up.

“I’m a warrior, no damsel in distress. I may not remember my life as queen, but I know I was born to fight not to play children’s card games!”

“And yet you are so good at it Gran-Gran!”

Sehrazat didn’t get a response, because it was now her turn to show Pegasus lackey her dueling clove to prove she could board the ship. Afya took this chance and retired back into the Millenium Item.

Probably to go into her soul room and train with her outstanding collection of swords. Yes, Sehrazat know that it was all mental, but still, holy Ra Afya had a lot of weapons in her soul room and can use anyone masterly.

It does make her feel humble.

After Kihana got the okay to board, the two best friends gripped each other hands and decide to look around the ship.

One of the lackeys told them as former Europa Champion and Number two in the classific they would have a Doppel bedroom for themselves, so they left their luggage there, so they could move freely around.

They wanted to check on their competitors. They needed to.

Knowing whom they were going against would help them greatly to win the tournament and get Amira’s soul back from Pegasus.

That’s how the stubble upon an interesting scene.

There was Mai Kujaku, an old acquaintance of the girls, in a conversation with two unknown boys.

One was a tall blond with a green jacket and the other was a short boy with the wildest hair they ever had seen. Tri-colored and starfish-shaped.

Suddenly Sehrazat heard Afya hiss.

“What’s wrong, Gran-Gran?!”, she asked worried her Yami.

“Look at what the little one is wearing!”

Sehrazat did it and had to control the gasp that left her mouth. She nudge Kihana so she could see it too.

The taller girl let out a silent curse: “What in the name of freaking Isis?!”

Right in front of them was another Millenium Item.

And not any ordinary, not that any of them was ordinary, it was the Millenium Puzzle!

The one who belonged once to the Nameless Pharaoh and Afya’s husband, as Sehrazat’s grandmother, told them in her stories.

No wonder, Afya was freacking out.

Both best friends had turned into statues.

What should they do now?

Afya was no help since she had to calm herself down. Kihana and Sehrazat looked at each other.

“We need to talk to the boy.”, suggests Kihana. “We need to know if the pharaoh is with him.”

“How are we going to do that?! Just straight up walking over to him and asking him if he has a spirit in his puzzle who possesses him sometimes? We would sound crazy, Hana!”, arguerd Sehrazat back.

“Do you have a better idea, Sehra?”

“…Not really.”

However, they didn’t need to walk up to the boys, since Mai turned around to walk away from them and saw the two girls.

The older girl blinked for a second, not believing whom she saw before she smirked.

“Well, well, if this isn’t a surprise.”, she said so loud that everybody, including Yuugi and Jounouchi, looked in her direction. “If this is not Sehrazat, the Amazon Princess of the Nile, and Kihana, the Lady of the Dragons. What are you girls doing here? I thought you had to take a break from tournaments?”

Under all the looks of the people, Sehrazat got shy and hide a bit behind Kihana, gripping her hand tight, while her best friend deadpanned at Mai.

“Hello to you too Mai, Mistress of the Harpies. Long time no see. How are you?”

Mai couldn’t answer since abruptly a lot of Duelists talked out loud.

“Oh my god, that’s really Sehrazat Faizan, the Amazon Princess of the Nile!”

“The Europa Champion?”

“The one whom anybody bet that at the world championships would bet Seto Kaiba?”

“Her or Kihana Schariq, the Lady of the Dragons. These girls are already legends!”

“Are they that good at Duel Monsters?”

“They are both incredible! You should have seen their Duel at the Europa championships! It was brutal!”

Sehrazat got even shyer and looked at the ground, while Kihana rubbed with her free hand her neck.

Of course, after Jounouchi stared at the two pretty girls to see if he was familiar with them, if they were such big names in the Dueling world, he turned to his best pal.

“Are these pretty girls, really such huge numbers, Yug?”, he asked.

Yuugi nodded.

“Yes, Sehrazat Faizan and Kihana Schariq were increbibal at the europa championchip. Their duel against each other was even transmitted in Japan. Sehrazat with her all-female monster-themed deck and her amazons only won by a hair against Kihana’s dragons. It was from start to finish nervewracking.”

Jounouchi let out a whistle, damn that sounded badass, while Yuugi looked at the girls.

He remember how he had watched their duel. As he had first seen Sehrazat on the TV something deep in him had reacted to her.

The boy still couldn’t figure out what.

She was a beautiful girl, no question, and even a bit shorter then him, but something in him had felt like he had know her, which was impossible of course.

Yet, seeing her in blood and flesh now, made the feeling tenfold.

It was then that Sehrazat looked up from the ground and their eyes meet.

Violette met orange.

And both felt like lightning struck them.

Unknown to them even their Yami’s felt it.

Yuugi felt a blush forming on his cheeks.

Sehrazat was so beautiful.

And these eyes of hers…so brilliant and unique…he had never seen orange eyes…nonetheless he felt he had looked into these eyes a thousand times…like he was coming home.

Meanwhile, Sehrazat had the same thoughts crossing her mind.

Yuugi was a short guy, but taller than her, and his eyes remind her of beautiful Amethyst. Eyes that she know, even if it was impossible, it was like she had found a missing piece of herself.

He was a handsome young man!

Mai’s voice broke the two out of their staring contest.

“What’s up with you Sehrazat, you aren’t normally this shy?”, said the older girl to her and raised an elegant eyebrow. “Not even a hello to an old opponent?”

She could practically feel how Kihana gave her a look too. Damn it was embarrassing!

She liked her lips and smiled a bit wobbly at Mai.

“It’s nice to see you again, Mai. So you are in this tournament too, heh?”

Yuugi felt a shiver down his back as he heard her voice in person. She had a pretty melodious voice.

It was like he know that she would have such a voice.

But how?

He didn’t know that his darker half was freacking out at seeing the young girl too. It was so weird, the spirit know he didn’t remember things, but he had a feeling he know this girl and he could sense a familiar presence of off her.

How could be this possible?

“You both may have defeated me the last time we saw each other.”, told Mai Kihana and Sehrazat. “But this time I will be victory. See you at the island, ladies.”

With that Mai left and left behind a Kihana who shook her head at her and a Sehrazat who mumbled: “Can’t we be just friends?”

Now, a lot of people didn’t think that Jounouchi was an observant person and it was mostly true, but he had seen how his best pal Yugi stared at this Sehrazat girl like she was some kind of goddess, not that he could fault him. The tiny girl was pretty, he just found her white-haired and taller friend hotter.

Else like a good best friend, he needed to help Yuugi. His pal would never talk to that girl alone, never mind ask her out or something, so he would play wingman for him.

With a grin, he gripped Yuugi by his shoulder and nearly pushed him to the girls. Yugi looked wide-eyed at him and mouthed what-are-you-doing to him.

Jounouchi ignored him.

It was for Yuugi one sake…and also he really wanted to speak with the white-haired girl.

She was a bomb!

Kihana raised an eyebrow at them and Sehrazat hide behind her again. She caressed the hand of her best friend to calm her down. Whatever happened, her Sehra seemed already crushing on the tri-colored-haired teen, if she acted this way.

Was this some kind of love at first sight?

That was adorable!

“Hey, ladies.”, greeted them Jounouchi. “I’m Katsuya Jounouchi, you can call me Joey and that’s my pal Yuugi Muto. I heard from him you both are number one and two in dueling from Europa! That’s really cool.”

Not only Kihana and Sehrazat were shocked, even Afya looked at this tiny boy and couldn’t believe it.

“You are the one who bet Seto Kaiba, wow, it’s an honor!”, said Kihana to them.

Sehrazat nodded rapidly.

Afya facepalmed at her descendant.

“O-Oh, thank you.”, mumbled Yuugi shyly.

The blue-haired girl took all her courage and stopped hiding behind Kihana. She wanted and needed to talk to Yuugi. Afya even gave her an encouraging nod.

“You were incredible.”, complimented Sehrazat Yugi, who blushed more at her words. “You were the first one even to summon Exodia! It was a spectacular duel. I don’t think I could have handled Kaiba as you did.”

“I reset that.”, hissed Afya in their minds. “The boy with the blue eyes white dragon fetish would have gone down hard and rough if we duel him!”

Sehrazat ignored her Yami/Ancestor.

“N-No, I saw how you duel at the Europan championship. You truely earned your first place. I bet you can defeat Kaiba too, Faizan-San.”, complimented Yuugi back to her.

He was burning like a house on fire, but he needed to say this.

Shy Sehrazat batted her long eyelashes and Yuugi thought he would die. If he did it would be a great death, with one last look at the prettiest girl he had ever seen.

“Please you can call me Sehrazat or Sehra.”

“Then please call me Y-Yuugi!”

“Yeah, and Jounouchi or Joey to me.”, said Joey with a huge grin.

Damn this two were adorable.

Kihana seemed to agree with him since she grinned at him and pointed her head at the two smaller teens.

“And I’m Kihana or just Hana. So Yuugi, you are wearing interesting jewelry. It looks like the one Sehrazat is wearing.”, directed Kihana their conversation to the question they needed the answers to.

However cute Sehrazat and Yuugi were with each other, needed to wait for this.

That’s when both Joey and Yuugi noticed the teardrop-formed golden amulet with an eye that hung from Sehrazat’s neck.

“It looks really like yours, Yug!”, said Joey.

“Another Millennium Item!”, gasped Yugi suprised.

“What you sure, men?”

It was Sehrazat who answered him: “Yes, my amulet is a Millennium Item. The legends say there are eight of them.”

“Is your one too, Yuugi?”, asked Kihana.

He nodded, still floored. Never would he have thought to meet after Pegasus eye another Millenium Item.

“Yeah, it’s the Millenium Puzzle.”

Of that answer, Afya had the strongest reaction. Sehrazat had to keep her face under control, which was hard since her Yami literally screamed in their shared mind.

“I can’t believe it! It is the puzzle! Is there my supposed husband’s soul bond, like your grandmother told us, Sehrazat? I mean I kinda feel something of another presence with little Yuugi, but whatever that is doesn’t want to talk and show themselves. How rude!”

Thankful the ship horn sounded, which meant that it was time to retire to their cabin. Sehrazat was thankful. One part of her didn’t want to leave Yuugi, no it wanted to talk more to him, but she, Kihana, and Afya needed to talk.

Thank the gods, that Kihana was with her.

She gripped her hand and gave the two boys her best brilliant smile. Joey and Yuugi turnend both red under Kihana’s beauty.

“Look at the time. We need to go, but we should totally meet up later guys.”

With a wave, she dragged Sehrazat in the direction of their shared cabin.

I could write the whole episode since there are no duels, but that’s for when I write one day the real story fully. I will write part two of it maybe in the next few days. But no promises, I could write something totally different.

If you didn’t know English isn’t my first langue and it is really stressful to write a whole chapter in it.

Making this snippet, writing only parts of the chapter of this fanfic I have planned is really more simple.

At last, I want to recommend three awesome YGO! Fanfic to you.

The Queens Gambit: Snippet Collection

I want to inform you that Atem is 18 and my OC Yanara is 20 in this snippet, you will know why ;)

Enjoy!

Snippet 6: Ancient Egypt

The queen of all Egypt had to suppress her giggles, as her beloved husband lead her by her hand through the palace. Atem turned to her sushing her playfully.

Gods, she felt like a young girl again. When she would sneak into the grand kitchen of the palace, to get some sweet treats from the cooks there, before the meals.

“Where are we going, Atem?”, she whispered amused.

Her husband squeezed her hand and gave her one of his devilish smirks, which always made her weak in the knees.

“You will see, my beloved.”, he answered. “I have a little idea.”

“Oh, sounds interesting.”

“It will be interesting, love.”

The tone of his voice was something Yanara know too well. A shiver racked her body and she started to get hot. When Atem used that kind of voice on her, that meant, she would find herself in a few minutes naked and screaming his name to the heavens.

She couldn’t wait, what idea he had!

They both stopped at the entrance to the war room.

Yanara blinked surprised as Atem opened the door and lead her inside.

“What are we doing here, my dear?”, she asked him wondering.

Meanwhile, Atem hugged her from behind and gave her temple a soft kiss. Oh, she could feel how eager he was. She bit her lip and snuggled more up to him.

“Do you know how incredibly beautiful you are when you are commanding our army?”, he whispered hotly in her ear. His breath made her shiver in delight. “So powerful, strong, and assertive. I have to control myself not taking you right there!”

The blue-haired woman gulped, oh she had an idea of what he wanted to do.

“Here?”, she asked out of breath.

“Here!”, Atem growled back and attacked her throat with biting kisses.

She let out a moan and forgot anything around them.

Priest Seto walked briskly to the war room. How could he forget the important papyrus rolls they needed?

He was normally not forgetful, he didn’t like that.

Kisara would probably say that it’s even for him normal to be a bit forgetful. It was just in human nature.

He didn’t like to argue with his love, yet he just couldn’t accept this aspect of him.

Seto had worked hard to be there where he was now, mistakes were unacceptable. However little they were.

The young man was so concentrated on barenting himself, that he didn’t hear the muffled sounds coming from the war room. If he had, he would have turned around and walked away fast. Not running, he would never run! He didn’t need to get traumatized like Mahad last week in the gardens.

Else, he didn’t and opened the door without a thought, only the next moment to let out something similar to a shriek and close the door hard and fast.

Oh by the gods it burned!

He clasped his hands on his face and wished this accursed image away from his mind.

Sadly it was literally now imprinted.

He didn’t needed to see THAT!

The pharaoh mounting the queen, both of them stark naked!

This would haunt him for the rest of his life!

He needed to find alcohol and fast. A good hungover would liberty him surely.

High Priestess Kisara was wandering the palace halls in search of her betrothed Priest Seto.

He had wanted to come to her room, to enjoy some time alone together, but he didn’t come.

That wasn’t like Seto.

Frowning she crossed her arms and asked herself where her fiance could be.

It was then that she saw her little sister, Priestes Samira, coming her way. The younger woman seemed amused about something if the huge grin on her was any indication.

“Samira, sweetie.”, she called for her sister’s attention.

Instantly the younger one run up to her and hugged her sister tight. Kisara was happy that even if she was 20 and Samira 15 her sister still was her little one and wanted her hugs and kisses.

“Hello big sister, how are you?”, asked the younger priestess.

“I’m fine, just looking for Seto. You don’t happen to see him?”

It was now that her sister let go of her and laughed really loud. Kisara raised an eyebrow at her.

“Why are you laughing Sami? I don’t get the joke.”

“Oh you will.”, giggled Samira. “I indeed know where Seto is. He is in the garden and drinking himself silly.”

That was odd. Her fiance wasn’t one to drink himself into a hungover.

“And I don’t suppose you know why?”

“Two words: Atem and Yanara.”

Kisara repeated the names of their pharaoh and beloved queen wondering, till it was like lightning struck her.

She facepalmed and Samira just laughed harder.

Okay, Seto admitted drinking this much wasn’t going to solve his problem, but well he was already deep into it, so why not continue?

If he wasn’t so hungover, he would see the flaw in the logic, but his logic said already bye-bye.

“Oh Seto, what are you doing?”, he heard the lovely voice of his Kisara.

He looked up from the ground he was sitting on and saw his beloved in front of him. She had her hands on her hips and was shaking her head. The full moon made her shine like a diamond and the stars reflected into her beautiful blue eyes.

“You are so pretty.”, he whined, which made Kisara blink surprised. She had never heard Seto whine before. “Pretty like the moon, no wait, prettier. I wish I could look at you all the time.”

Kisara crossed her arms and counted fast the bottles around him.

15.

Just like Mahad last week.

She only hoped Mana wouldn’t know about that little incident for a while. The magician would never let Seto live it down.

“Love, don’t you think that’s enough for today?”, she tried to reason with him.

Seto looked just with wide eyes at her and took a big gulp out of his bottle.

“It will never be enough.”, he said with a grim voice.

The white-haired woman let out a sign.

How was she going to fix that?

She loved the queen like a sister, but she really wished these two weren’t so… adventurous in their love life.

They already traumatized Mahad and Seto, who would be next?

In the end, Kisara managed to stop Seto from drinking himself to death and put him into bed like a toddler.

Then after she was sure no one was in the queen’s chamber, she walked up to her best friend, who was making herself bed-ready and blinking at her wondering, and said: “My queen, I love you and I respect the pharaoh, but if you both don’t stop having intercourse in any possible room or outside I will send at both of you my dragon.”

Yanara just made a face at her.

I hope you enjoyed this little silliness XD

Poor, poor Priest Seto and Mahad, both could use therapy XD

And I know in one picture I made with Kihana and Sadiye I said that Kisara and Priest Seto were never together but I changed my mind.

This two danced around each other for years, because Kisara thought she had to dedicate her whole life to Yanara, till Yanara told her she should follow her heart finally! She could be a good Priestess even with a romantic life!

So when they were both 19 they came together and fast the betrothal was official. They married at 20-21.

I’m still I bit unsure if Kisara and Priest Seto should have at least one child before things with Zorc and Thief King Bakura happen.

What do you mean?

Hope you enjoyed this snippet, until the next :D

Chapter 2: The Spirit of the Millenium Fragment

Redone: 29/08/24

When Sehrazat “woke up” again she had to look twice and pinch herself that she wasn’t dreaming.

No, she wasn’t.

How could this be possible?

She wasn’t anymore in her bedroom but in a room filled with toys from her childhood, a comfy-looking couch, a filled bookshelf and painted in soft golden colours.

What the heck was going on?

Was she kidnapped?

She felt how she started to sweat and her heart nearly leaped out of her chest. Sehrazat was more than afraid, she was terrified.

How could this happen?

The last she remembered was putting on the Millennium Fragment and then…nothing for a while.

“Wait a minute.”, she mumbled to herself. “Has this something to do with the Fragment?”

Oh, dear Isis, she hoped not, that would mean all the crazy stories they told in her family were true, yet it would be better than being really kidnapped.

“I need to get out of her.”, she told herself and looked for a way out.

Luck was on her side, there was a door which opened!

If she really was kidnapped then her Kidnappers weren’t that good.

Careful she looked around.

She was now in a corridor and before her was…a really, really creepy door.

There was again an eye of Horus who seemed to look into her soul.

Where by Osiris did she end up?

Suddenly the door before her opened slowly and Sehrazat wished she could run away.

Yet something kept her there.

Maybe it was a morbid curiosity then it was not normal not to react to a creepy door slowly opening alone.

“So you have awakened?”, said a melodious woman’s voice from the room behind the creepy door.

Okay, now would be good to run away, but Sehrazat seemed to have turned into ice.

The woman, the voice belonged to, stepped out of her room and…no that couldn’t be possible!

It was like Sehrazat looked into a mirror.

A mirror that made her look, older, taller, and hotter, with longer hair and sharper eyes even in her cutesy Dark Magician Girl PJs!

That was one sexy as-hell woman, Sehrazat bet any man or woman would get a heart attack at this beauty, it was just so weird and impossible that they both could be twins.

She didn’t have a twin sister!

And why would a twin sister kidnap her to this creepy place?

What was going on?

Her look-a-like frowned at her and then gave her a small smile. She holds her hands up in a non-treating way.

“You must be really confused, aren’t you? I understand this is new for me too.”, said the woman to her.

The blue-haired girl nodded slowly. She didn’t trust her voice.

“Why don’t we go back to your room? I will explain anything as well as I can.”

Did Sehrazat even have a choice? The corridor looked like was endless and she wouldn’t risk running away now. She had noted even how womanly her doppelganger was, she possessed some muscles too.

That was not a fragile flower.

This was someone who could fight.

She was reminded of her favourite card the Amazoness Paladin. Her doppelganger was just as beautiful, but you clearly saw that she was a fighter!

So she nodded.

The Doppelganger gave her a reassuring smile and stepped as the first one in the toy-filled room.

How considerate of her actually. Sehrazat wouldn’t have liked to have this woman behind her, so the woman turned her back to her.

She was showing Sehrazat some trust.

Well, she could at least hear out what she had to say. She couldn’t be that bad if she was attentive to her feelings.

….That was not Stockholm-Syndrom talking out of her she hoped.

So Sehrazat got back into the room she woke up and gave the woman a hesitated and mistrusting look.

The other one was sitting on the couch, still trying to appear as non-threatening as possible.

Yeah, she wouldn’t sit down beside her and stand where she was. The door she let open too, just in case she had to run away.

“Also.”, began the woman. “Please don’t freak out, but I’m a spirit. I have inhabited the Millennium Fragment for a good 3000 years. You put it on awoke me from my slumber. So you can see, I’m just as surprised as you are.”

Sehrazat blinked at the doppelganger.

One.

Two.

And three times.

“I can’t believe Granny’s crazy story is true!”, she shrieked displeased.

Now the spirit was blinking at her, while Sehrazat remembered what her grandmother told her when she was a little girl.

*/*

Sehrazat loved to visit her Granny after pre-school.

Granny always made her, her favourite food, made cookies, and told her amazing stories!

Her Granny was a tall woman, with long dreadlocks and a beautifully aged face. She may not look like a typical grandmother, but she was just as sweet.

The little four-year-old girl snuggled more up to her Granny, who held her in her lap and listened to her newest story.

“The Millenium Fragment is special not only because of its power, but the spirit of the great queen sleeps in it.”, her Granny told her.

Sehrazat looked with sparkling eyes at Granny.

“Like Sleeping Beauty?”

Granny laughed heartily and gave her forehead a kiss which made her in turn giggle.

“You can say it, but she is not waiting for Prince Charming to wake her up with a kiss. One day, the power of the great queen will be needed again. She waits in the Millenium Fragment for the right soul who will wake her up from her slumber.”

“How Granny?”

“When the time is right the chosen soul will wear the Millenium Fragment and awake so the queen’s soul again.”

*/*

“Unbelievable, you are the queen?! My ancestor?! All these freaky stories are true?”, continue Sehrazat shocked.

How could she not if her whole world was flipped over in one instant?

The spirit frowned and tilted her head confused.

“I’m a queen?”, she asked surprised. “I’m your ancestor? I’m sorry, I’m a bit confused. The only thing I remember is that I know my roots lay in ancient Egypt what you tell me is new information. Though it makes no sense why my soul room looks like a palace.”

You know there could be a lot of things Sehrazat could ask the spirit, but she decided to concentrate on one thing.

“Your room looks like a palace?”

Her doppelganger just nodded.

“Huh.”

*/*

A while later we find Sehrazat sitting beside the spirit finishing to tell her what she knows of her family stories about the Millenium Fragment.

“So to recapitulate, I once was a great queen married to two pharaohs, one who is only known as the Nameless Pharaoh, who saved the world from the destructive Shadow Games. Then before I died my soul ended up in my Millenium Fragment and one of my daughters carried the duty to protect it and guard it against evil forces. She was the founder of your family, the Faizans. For 3000 years your family fulfilled this duty, now it’s your turn and you didn’t believe one bit of the stories and put the amulet on to prove a point. But so you awakened me, which I prophesized to my daughter, that I would be back when the right soul wore my Millenium Fragment and the world needed my power again. So that means the evil forces are back and I must be reunited with my first husband, whose spirit lives in the Millenium Puzzle.”

Sehrazat just nodded, while the queen shook her head.

“I can understand you thought this was all a made-up story, I’m here and I can’t quite believe it. I’m only a shadow of the person I once was, I can’t be sure what your family told for 3000 years is the truth.”, admitted the spirit.

“You really remember nothing?”, asked Sehrazat to be sure.

“No, not one bit.”

After that Sehrazat let out a loud sign. That wasn’t good that the queen had amnesia, not when it seemed the world was in danger again.

“You know what.”, started Sehrazat. “Till proven otherwise I think we can believe the stories my family told. We are clearly here together and you at least know you are a spirit bond to the Millenium Fragment. Better we can’t do.”

The queen agreed with a nod.

“Seems like you will be stuck with me for a while, Sehrazat.”, the queen said.

“You will need a name, I don’t want to call you Spirit or the likes.”, told her Sehrazat.

The queen was her ancestor, her 3000 times great-grandmother or so, and she was family. It wouldn’t feel right to not call her by a name. She was a human being.

“Do you have something in mind, Sehrazat?”, asked the queen curiously.

The blue-haired girl mummed thoughtfully and gripped her chin.

What would be a fitting name for a once queen of Egypt?

One of the names of other famous queens?

Should she go with something modern?

Then it hit her.

The queen had said she was only a shadow of the person she once was…

“How about Afya?”

Her ancestor put her pointer finger thoughtfully against her lips and looked up to the ceiling.

“Afya…Shadow…mmh, not bad. I like it. It fits me.”

“Then it’s settled.”, cheered Sehrazat and held her hand out to Afya. “It’s nice to meet you official Afya, I’m Sehrazat.”

With a laugh, Afya took her hand and shook it.

“The pleasure is all mine, Sehrazat.”

*/*

Like any morning Kihana was on her way to wake up Sehrazat. She mumbled happily a little song.

The weather was nice out there. So today they could eat in the schoolyard under the pretty cherry blossom trees.

Kihana loved this about Japan, the cherry blossom trees were so wonderful.

She opened the door to her best friend’s bedroom and started her greeting: “Good morning your highness, it’s time to wake-“

The words got stuck in her throat as she saw Sehrazat sleeping peacefully, a golden amulet with an eye of Horus around her neck.

She never had seen it, but her mother had told her what all Millenium Items had in common, so she would recognize them.

The white-haired girl couldn’t believe it!

“Sehrazat!”, she shouted so loud, that her best friend woke up from her slumber and looked confused around.

“Wha, Wha, What?”, comes still sleepy from her.

Kihana closed the door behind her and pointed an accusing finger at Sehrazat.

“Sehrazat Nefertiti Faizan, are you wearing the sacred Millennium Fragment?! You know it’s not allowed!”, reminds her Kihana waving her finger around.

Sehrazat sat up on her bed and rubbed her eyes. The girl didn’t quite catch what was going on, half asleep as she was.

“What Hana?”

Her best friend let out a loud sign. Of course, Sehrazat wasn’t “online” so to speak. She still had to power up her system.

The blue-haired girl never was a morning person.

Well, Kihana knows what to do.

She started to tickle Sehrazat.

“Wa, wa, wa?! Hahahahaha! Stop it, stop it, Hana!”, plead Sehrazat trying to get away from her best friend’s fingers.

But Kihana was merciless.

“You are wearing the Millenium Fragment!”, she repeated. “What are you thinking Sehrazat?!”

“Currently how to, hahaha, getaway, hahaha, from you!”

“Don’t sass me, young miss!”

“Please have mercy, hahaha!”

“Explain yourself then!”

With that Kihana stopped and Sehrazat took a big gulp of air.

“Maybe it’s better we go to the dining room, so I can explain to Mama and the others this too.”, said the blue-haired girl.

Her white-haired friend let out a sign but nodded. It would be better if anybody knew what was going on. Amira needed to know this. Sehrazat had broken a rule of their families and only her mother could punish her.

So the two girls made their way to the dining room, where the rest of their family already enjoyed their breakfast.

*/*

“You guys are weird today.”, said Maja to her two best friends and gave them a look.

It was lunch break at Domino High and thanks to the good weather they could eat at the schoolyard under their favorite cherry blossom tree.

Just Sehra and Hana wear so weirdly the whole day.

And the weird new amulet Sehra wore was giving Maja some strange vibes.

“A lot happened.”, answered Kihana shortly, picking her Bento apart.

Maja raised an eyebrow.

“We saw each other just yesterday, what the frick, could happen that you guys are weird?”

“The world turns upside down.”, sang Sehrazat a verse from Hamilton’s Yorktown.

“I believe it my whole life.”, said Kihana more to herself, yet Maja heard her. “But it’s still so unbelievable. How can it be?”

The brunette just blinked even more confused at her friends. Normally she was the one who said cryptic nonsense to make them laugh, that was so not Sehra and Hana style.

“Okay, I’m going to guess you are acting weird because of Sehra's new shiny amulet.”, guessed Maja.

Kihana's left eye twitched and Sehrazat nodded biting into her ramen noodles.

“Sehra!”, hissed Kihana. “Do you think this is a good idea? I love Maja, but we can’t drag her into this mess!”

It got weirder by the minute. In what kind of freaky situation did end up her friends and why can’t she participate?

Maja pouted.

“I thought we three were best friends forever? I told and show you how I can do magic, why won’t you trust me?”

Here Kihana whined and looked apologetic at her.

“It isn’t like that Maja-Chan-“

“It’s just Hana is still so fixed in our old family traditions that she doesn’t know how to handle this now.”, explained Sehrazat calmly.

“And you do Sehra-Chan?”

Sehrazat looked at Kihana. Oh, there they go having a silent conversation with their eyes. Maja wonders how the two do that. After a few seconds, Kihana let out a breath and nodded.

“As Aunt Amira said you can now decide who knows and who will not.”

“Oh, goody, so I get an explanation now?”, wanted Maja a confirmation.

“Maja-Chan, have you ever heard of the Nameless Pharaoh and the Shadow Games?”, asked her Sehrazat in turn.

She admitted she didn’t expect that.

“Yeah, my grandfather told me that there was once a mighty pharaoh who saved our land and the world from something evil called Shadow Games.”, said Maja. What was Sehrazat getting at? “Apparently you used real Monsters to battle each other in this game. It got out of control and somehow the Nameless Pharaoh put an end to this.”

“You know a lot.”, said Kihana surprised.

Maja shrugged her shoulder.

“In the village, where my grandparents from Egypt live it’s a folktale.”

“Cool to know. So Maja-Chan what would you say when I tell you that the Nameless Pharaoh banned the power of the Shadow Games into eight mystical Items called Millenium Items?”, wondered Sehrazat.

“Is this where now your amulet comes in?”, pointed the brunette at it.

“She is a smart girl, Sehrazat.”

Suddenly Maja heard this melodious woman’s voice and not a second later a spirit-like being who looked like Sehrazat, just older and hotter, materialized beside her friend.

Maja gasped for air and pointed at the spirit woman.

“You….You have a spirit with you?! Since when?!”

“You can see Afya?!”, shouted Sehrazat and Kihana shocked.

This “Afya” blinked rapidly at her, she seemed just as shocked.

The brunette got then a feeling in her belly that they would face many crazy adventures in the near future.

Really, really, crazy adventures.

Should she maybe get some alcohol?

She had a feeling these adventures would give them a lot of frustration.

About my stories

Hello, my dear readers.

I’m sad to make this announcement but I have noted that writing for Kick the cat out of the bag put me under a lot of stress. Or more the rule of update once per week.

Sometimes I lack the motive to write and then when it’s time to update a write just something so I could update.

Sometimes also I wish I could work on my other works because I got suddenly inspiration for them or I want to write something new, but because I made Kick the cat out of the bag my priority I can’t.

You can imagine how my creativity suffers under it.

So I have decided I will put all my stories in sporadic updates and write what I want when I want.

Like this, I hope I don’t fall into writer’s block as I do for every update for one story.

And I really want to write for other fandoms too when I have an idea.

So I hope you can accept my decision.

I think this is the best for anyone.

I can write when I’m most creative and what I want and you get awesome chapters, even if you have to wait for them for a bit.

Please accept my decision and don’t leave my stories and me behind.

Writing should first and foremost be a pleasure for me and not a worksheet I have to do to or the teacher gets angry at me.

I hope you understand what I mean.

On my Tumblr, I will post news and similar things so you should check it out to see where I’m with my stories.

Again I hope you can understand me and I wish you all a nice day/night

The Queens Gambit: Snippet Collection

Hi and welcome to my little collection for my FanFic The Queens Gambit. Since I don’t know how to duel for my life, right now I can’t make the Fanfiction I want, so I decide to upload snippets of the story which don’t need a Duel and are in not chronological order. I will write when I have inspiration for a scene, but you don’t have to worry I will always put time and place at the start so you know when in the timeline these things happen.

With nothing more to say, enjoy the first snippet.

Also in my DeviantArt Gallery you will find the base which inspired this little snippet, go and take a look!

Snippet 1: Ancient Egypt

This takes place in Atem and my OCs Afya, his future wife and queen, childhood. Atem is 8 and the OC 10. You will now finally know her real name.

Yanara know that she had messed up.

Again.

Just…Atem made her sometimes so angry!

Younger than her, but taller and being the future pharaoh of their beloved home, made him act arrogant at times.

It was not her fault that she wasn’t that good at summoning her Ka she still was only 10, not anybody could be a genius like him!

Why does he always has the need to rub it under her nose when he was better at something then her?

She was his older cousin, she deserved some respect from him!

Being the crown prince should give him a free pass at acting like a brat!

“Ah, I had a feeling, I would find you here.”, she heard the lovely voice of her mother.

The little girl stopped leaning on the balustrade of her favorite balcony and turned to her mother.

The full moon shine down on them and the stars were twinkling. It would be a great time to stargaze, something Yanara loved, but Princess Renenet saw the sorrow and anger in the orange eyes of her beloved daughter.

Her dear nephew must have acted out really bad today with her.

“Mother, do you need me for something?”, asked Yanara.

Renenet moved so she could face her daughter and clasped her hands together.

“I heard from Mahad how you and Atem got into an argument again.”

Her daughter sighed.

“Of course.”

“He is only worried, you know?”

“Yes, for Atem.”

“For you too.”

Yanara just turned to her mother and shook her head.

“You know, my heart, I think Atem is just testing your border.”, she started to explain to her daughter her own theory. “You are his elder, yet you don’t demand from him the respect you earn. You will be queen one day. I think Atem wants to know if you can be a strong queen.”

“I still don’t won’t marry him, he is always so mean to me.”, whined her child.

As a mother, her heart bleeds, but as a princess of Egypt, Renenet knows of the role she had to fulfill.

“Princess Yanara, this is the duty that was bestowed on you. You can’t run away from it. Didn’t you tell me you wanted to help turn our home into a better place? As a queen you will have the power.”, she lectured her.

“But Atem is going to make the decisions as pharaoh, what do I have to say?”

“I will tell you a little secret.”, whisper Renenet playful and waved her daughter over to her.

Curious her child came and wanted that she kneeled before her so she could whisper in her ear.

“Your aunty actually helps your uncle a lot in his decisions. The Millennium Puzzle and Fragment are connected mentally to each other. So if your uncle needs your aunty advice he will ask her in their minds and no one is wiser. Also if he is about to mess up, she will warn him.”

Wow, Yanara didn’t know that.

That was cool!

“Really, Mama?”

“Really, my heart.”

Yanara frowned and touched her mother cheek.

“So…Atem is just being a brat to me to see if I can talk back to him?”

“Pretty much.”

“Huh.”

Renenet smiled and kissed the still chubby cheeks of her little girl. Yanara still had a lot to learn, but she was sure her daughter would be one day a fine queen.

Yanara means Light if anyone would like to know. ;)

Hope you enjoyed this!

Chapter 3: Card Games through a TV

Redone: 29/08/24

I mixed a bit of Japanese dub with English dub, I hope it's okay ^^

The next few weeks in Sehrazat's life were… interesting to say at least.

She and her whole family and friends got Afya, the spirit of the Millennium Fragment and her supposed ancestor, to know.

Afya was 100% a queen, no doubt. Her presence, how she moved, how she talked, the way she could command a whole room…it screamed it.

And her soul room was a giant ass ancient Egyptian palace.

Sehrazat had now for a few times visit it and the place seemed to have no ends. What really surprised her, were the Duel Monsters carved on a few doors that wouldn’t open. Not even Afya knew how to open them or what was behind them.

Anyhow, the most important place was the little arena the palace had. There were a lot of weapons, mostly swords, and shields and Afya made it her quest to teach Sehrazat to wield a sword.

No kidding!

So Sehrazat got her ass mentally kicked once per day and her respect for Afya grow.

The woman was a merciless teacher, but how she kicked butt was art!

So elegant and deadly!

It doesn’t mean that the blue-haired girl didn’t want to make her ancestor a bit suffer. She could literally feel all the wounds Afya had inflicted on her, even if they didn’t show on her body.

So she did what she could do best.

Challenging Afya to a children’s card game.

Also known as Duel Monster.

Before her father died he had taught her anything about the game. She didn’t want to praise herself, but she was a damn good duellist. She had won the last Europa Championships and if she hadn’t moved to Japan she could have participated in the World Cup.

Sadly you had to still live in Europa to be the champion, so her title had gone to the creepy Paulo Ramirez, the third place in the classify since Kihana played Duel Monster too and was second place.

Anger couldn’t even describe how Sehrazat felt about that.

Stupid technicality.

To get back where we started, Sehrazat was a damn good duellist and would beat Afya’s ass in Duel Monster.

That evaporated in a few minutes in their game since Afya picked it up fast and completely destroyed her.

Afya was even better than her in Duel Monsters!

How the heck the ancient queen managed this was beyond Sehrazat.

After that brutal loss, she had gone to her Mama to get comfort. It was so unfair!

It didn’t end there, Afya wiped the floor with Kihana too and Maja gave up after a few turns.

Afya was not only a formidable swordswoman but also an incredible duellist. Even if she repeated she preferred her sword over cards.

All in all, it was an experience that was not forgotten and Sehrazat asked herself if she and Afya teamed up if they could have beaten Seto Kaiba, the former World Champion.

Yes, the former.

A boy named Yugi Muto kicked the rich kid and three of his Blue Eyes White Dragons behind with Exodia.

If Sehrazat ever met this Yugi he would get a big Kudos from her.

That was impressive.

Today in the Faizan and Schariq household Maja was to guest since they all wanted to watch together how the Japanse Championship ended.

After a nice supper, all were in the living room together.

Sehrazat was snuggled up against her Mama, with Maja leaning on her. Sadiye was sitting on Aunty Rahila’s lap and Kihana had taken one of the armchairs for herself. Afya, as spirit, was also out of her Millennium Item and sat down on the other armchair.

Various snacks and beverages were laid out on the couch table and everyone, besides Afya of course, took some snacks and drinks.

Then it was time for the final duel.

The Announcer was full of energy as he said: ”To the millions of Duel Monsters fans, it's time for the tournament finals! Among the 200 duelists who won their regionals, who will stand at the top? Here come the competitors! Representing East Japan, 14-year-old Insector Haga! Representing West Japan, 15-year-old Dinosaur Ryuzaki! ”

“Are these the guys’ real names?”, asked Maja and bit into her chocolate bar.

Kihana finished drinking her coke answering her: “No, I’m pretty sure that’s are invented names. Who would name his kid Insector or Dinosaur?”

“Someone with bad taste.”, said Amira, which made everyone laugh.

The all-female group watched how Insector Haga destroyed Dinosaur Ryuzaki with his tiny insects.

Sadiye pouted like no tomorrow as she had to give Maja her Yens since she bet that the Dinosaur Dude would win. Her mother and sister hugged and kissed her, so she felt a bit better.

But she wouldn’t bet again against Maja.

 “Presenting the award is Industrial Illusions CEO and the genius creator of Duel Monsters...”, told the announcer. “Mr. Pegasus J. Crawford!”

Pegasus, holding a trophy, was raised by a platform into the middle of the duelling arena.

“The creator personally, what an honour for the young boy.”, said Rahila, stroking Sadiye’s black hair.

“That guy has some serious fabulous hair. What shampoo does he use?”, wonders Maja.

Sehrazat wants to answer her, yet she feels something in her mind. Or more she feels the connection she shares with Afya. Her Yami stares at Pegasus with a frown.

“What’s wrong, Afya?”

“I don’t like this man…something is strange about him. How he gives himself, his posture…it rubs me the wrong way.”

Meanwhile, Pegasus walks over to Insector Haga and kneels down. He gives him the trophy and congratulations, Haga is of course really happy.

That’s when Pegasus says something which turns all attention back to him: “You are granted entry into an upcoming event sponsored by my company.”

“That’s a first.”, says Amira. “Pegasus never hold an event or sponders something.”

“Oh that reminds me!”, shouts Rahila.

She puts Sadiye down from her lap and runs out of the living room.

The rest of the women and girls look all at each other confused.

A few seconds later she returns with two boxes in her hands.

“These packages were delivered today to us. One is for Sehrazat and one for you Kihana, my child.”

Still confused both take their package. Sehrazat shakes it.

“I wonder what’s in there.”

“It’s from Industrial Illusions!”, gasp Kihana surprised.

Amira crosses her arms and Afya’s frown deepens.

“Pegasus announces an event sponsored by him and you get the same-day packages from Industrial Illusions. I don’t like to say it girls, but something about this is fishy.”, says, Amira.

“You think so, Mama?”

“I agree, it is a bit of an obvious coincidence.”, admits Rahila. “But, Mira, both our daughters are top duellists, it’s not strange if Pegasus wants them in his event .”

“Can we not just open the boxes and see what’s inside them?”, whines Sadiye, who is sitting now on Maja’s lap.

“I’m curious too.”, agrees Maja with her.

Well, what else should they do? So together Sehrazat and Kihana open the boxes under the eyes of their family and friends. Both find a glove, two golden stars, and some cards.

Only Sehrazat’s one has a VHS in it. She picks it up with a frown.

“Why do I get a VHS?”

“Don’t make us watch it Sehra!”, shrieks Sadiye and hugs Maja tight. “That thing could be cursed!”

“Did you watch again bad movies, even if I didn’t permit them, Sadiye? You are still too young.”, scolds Rahila.

“Sorry, mommy!”

“We will talk about this later, young miss.”

Sehrazat looks to Afya, who has crossed her arms fixing this strange device with an uncertain look.

“Well, let’s just watch it.”, she decides for anyone. “We will know then what’s it about.”

So Sehrazat puts the VHS in the VCR.

The woman and girls huddle all close together till the static shows Pegasus on the TV screen.

“Greetings, my dear Sehrazat girl. I am Pegasus J. Crawford.”

“Hello?”, greets Sehrazat and waves awkwardly.

“Did you really say hello to a pre-recorded video?”, whispers-shouts Kihana in disbelief.

The blue-haired girl just shrugs her shoulders.

“It’s quite a shame that just because you moved to Japan you aren’t the Europa Champion anymore. You and Miss Schariq are formidable duellists, but you Sehrazat are even more a special case.”, tells her Pegasus. Afya stands now beside her with crossed arms, fixing the screen with a sharp look. “In fact, I've decided to investigate your amazing duelling skills personally. Right here, right now, we shall hold a special duel. We will play with a strict time limit of fifteen minutes and when time's up, the player with the highest life-points will be the winner. Are you ready?”

“This guy nuts, he is on a videotape.”, points Maja out.

“How is this going to work?”, wonders Sadiye.

Suddenly Pegasus laughs really evil. Something behind his hair glows in gold.

“With magic!”

The woman and girls let out a shocked sound. Her mother, Aunty Rahila, Kihana, Sadiye and Maja turn black and fade into the background.

Only she and Afya are still standing.

“Gran-Gran are you feeling this?”, she asks her Yami. “Everything's growing dark and cold and the others aren't moving.”

“Yes, I do. This is some kind of magic I bet with you!”

“Pegasus what have you done to my family!”, Sehrazat demands to know.

“Don’t worry, they are fine, you should worry more where we are now, little Sehrazat!”, tells her Pegasus.

“He is right. This place…this isn’t our normal world.”, informs her Afya.

“Do you want to take over, Gran-Gran?”

Afya just nods.

The symbol of the Millennium Items appears on Sehrazat’s forehead and her Millennium Fragments start to glow. With closed eyes the switch takes place and where once Sehrazat was in control of the body it is now Afya.

The spirit opens her eyes and smirks at Pegasus.

“All right, let’s duel and then you unfreeze my family and friends!”, declared Afya in her more mature and womanly voice.

Pegasus nods.

“Certainly. Let's begin. But you should know one thing, someone like me you never faced in a duel.”

The VCR timer is set to 0: 15.00 and both duellists get their cards ready.

“You will pay for what you did to my family!”, growls Afya and draws the Alexandrite Dragon.

Again something behind Pegasus’s hair glows

“You won't save anyone with that dragon card.”, he tells her nonchalantly.

“How did you?!”

“I told you, you've never faced anyone like me before.”, he reminds her. ”I know every move you'll make. Before you can even make it.”

Afya just growls angrily at him.

“Knowing every move you'll make gives me a distinct advantage, wouldn't you say? For example, I can anticipate your next play and counter it with this Dragon Capture Jar.”

“Hah?”

“It will draw the Alexandrite Dragon from your card and imprison the beast. Trapped. Never to be played against me.”

How can he see my cards and make my monsters real?!, thinks Afya desperate.  There is only one explanation!

“You have a Millennium Item too, don't you?!”, shouts Afya accusing.

“Right you are Sehrazat girl or should I call you queen?”, he smirks at her gasp. “Since you inhabited the body of your descendant.”

“How do you know this?”, wants Afya to know.

“My Item showed me a lot of things, including the little secret of the Faizan family. Now back to our game, my Dragon Piper has his flute of resurrection frees your Alexandrite Dragon, but puts him under my control.”

I have to defeat myself!

“I play Amazon of the Seas!”

The mermaid-like monster appears before her and the Alexandrite Dragon.

Alexandrite Dragon: ATK2000/DEF2100

Amazon of the Seas: ATK1300/DEF1400

The Alexandrite Dragon attacks the Amazon of the Sea.

I can feel the heat of the attack!

Afya’s life points are reduced from 2000 to 1300.

“A bit too hot for you my dear queen?”, asked Pegasus amused. ”I imagine it must be a long time since you played a Shadow Game, you seem a bit rusty.”

“Don't be so sure Pegasus, I will beat you!”, promises Afya and draws a new card.

Pegasus lifts his hair aside to show his Millennium Eye which glints with the image of a woman in a golden dress with six white angel wings. Afya’s eye also glints with the same image.

I have to turn this duel around, maybe with my Wingweaver?

Suddenly Pegasus laughs out loud and the once queen of all of Egypt gets insecure.

Wait a minute, he definitely knows what I'm about to do. I bet it's his Millennium Item that gives him this power. He must see the cards I draw with it, but what if I don't know what I play?

“Hurry up now, Queenie. Time is running out for you and your family. I already know what you will play and have a surprise for your little fairy type.”

Afya looks at him with cold orange eyes and takes blindly a card from her deck.

“Don’t be so sure of yourself, Pegasus! I figured out how your power works. You may be able to see the cards in my hand, but you can't see the cards I pull from the deck.”

Pegasus narrows his eyes at her.

“My next card is... the Dark Magician Girl!”

The Dark Magician Girl appears with a twirl and a cute smile. She hovers protectively before Afya.

“Your little cute Magician and Alexandrite Dragon how the same attack points.”, points Pegasus smirking out.

Dark Magician Girl: ATK2000/DEF1700

Alexandrite Dragon: ATK2000/DEF100

“What do you plan on doing my dear queen?”

“I will use this handy spell card.”, now Afya is smirking and shows him the card. “I play the magic card, Magic Formula which will give my Dark Magician Girl 700 more Attack Points!”

 “Well, if you think this will help you. Then go on.”, say’s Pegasus nonchalant.

“It will do more than that!”

Dark Magician Girl: ATK2700/DEF1700

Alexandrite Dragon: ATK2000/DEF100

“And now my Dark Magician Girl destroy the Alexandrite Dragon!”, shouts Afya, as her monster twirls her staff and sends the dragon to the Graveyard.

Pegasus Life Points drop from 2000 to 1300, yet he seems very calm. Afya narrows her eyes at him.

“I have taken a good chunk of your Life Points how can you be so calm?”, she questions him.

The man just draws his next card.

“Oh my dear queenie, you are so old, yet so naive. But by using your Dark Magician Girl, you've let me manipulate you once again.”

“You are lying!”, accuses Afya, while Dark Magician Girl hovers closer to her with a worried look on her face.

“By playing that one card, you have ensured my victory.”

“You are out of your mind!”

“We shall see, Queenie. Oh, a very rare card. This is the fearsome Faceless Mage.”

“I've never seen that card before.”, admits Afya. “But my Dark Magician Girl never let me down.”

Dark Magician Girl: ATK2700/DEF1700

Faceless Mage: ATK1200/DEF2200

“But how will she fare once I combine my Faceless Mage with the, equally rare, Eye of Illusion?”, wonders sarcastically Pegasus.

“Dark Magician Girl get ready, use your powers to defeat it! Dark Burning Attack!”, commands Afya.

Dark Magician Girl attacks, Faceless Mage holds up the Eye of Illusion and her attack has no effect.

Both the duellist and Duel Monster are shocked.

“How can this be?!”, shouts Afya.

Pegasus does not give an answer, just laughs at her desperation.

It didn’t make any sense. Pegasus Monster should be toast! The ancient queen looked worried at the timer. 0: 05.00. She didn’t have much time left! She needed to end this Duel.

“I attack your combo with my Amazoness Paladin!”

The female warrior appears on the playing field swinging her sword.

Amazoness Paladin: ATK1700/DEF300

Faceless Mage: ATK1200/DEF2200

“My fearsome Amazon will cut your Faceless Mage down!”, promises Afya.

“True, your Amazon is fearsome. But you have once again underestimated the incredible power of my Eye of Illusion! Hah hah!”, laughs Pegasus in her face. “Dark Burning Attack!”

Amazoness Paladin shatters, and Afya's life points are reduced from 1300 to 300.

“How can this be?! The Faceless Mage doesn't have a Dark Burning Attack?”

It’s like lighting struck her as the once queen of Egypt realized what this meant.

It was my own Dark Magician Girl that attacked me. Pegasus is controlling her with the Eye of Illusion.

“Well, queenie, our time together is nearly up, and as I have more life points than you, it appears I am the victor.”, informs her Pegasus giddy.

Fractionally Afya looks for a way out and draws a card, but before she can summon it, the timer hits zero!

“No, please no!”, she screams. “I was this close to ending it!”

“It seems luck was not on your side queenie, but you were a formidable opponent.”, mocks her Pegasus.

“What do you want? Why are you doing all of this?!”, demands Afya too.

“It’s quite simple. As you already guessed right I possess one Millennium Item, the Millennium Eye. My goal is to have all eight, then who shall have all eight of them shall have a power beyond imagination!”, tells her Pegasus passionately. “But I have to win it from you, or his power will not be mine.”

Shocked the blue-haired woman grips her amulet.

“I will never hand you over my Millennium Fragment! I’m done playing games with you!”

“Oh, you will. You see, I have found that given the proper incentive, anyone can be made to play my game.”

The Millennium Eye glows and pulls Sehrazat’s mother’s soul into the television screen.

“Amira?!”, shouts Afya in disbelief.

Amira appears on the TV screen, crying for help: “Sehrazat!”

Afya gets formally kicked out of the body and Sehrazat is again in control. Crying she puts her hands on the TV.

“Mama, MAMA!”

“Yes, we will duel again, Sehrazat. How else will you reclaim your mother’s soul?”, asks Pegasus a rhetorical question, till the TV turns into static.

The world returns to color and Sehrazat’s Family and friends are now able to move. Amira's eyes are blank and she falls over.

“MAMA! MAAAAAAMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAAA!”

Her screams of pain and anguish can be heard even outside of their home.

Next
