章 125: Anzu and Satiah's Dilemma (Part 1)
DIMENSION: MANGA (The One That Saves the Day)
Kaiba grabbed Shizuka's hand and led her inside. "Mokuba, come in here." Mokuba followed. Kaiba put in his losings ticket along with Shizuka's. "Ridiculous. Forced to enter a game only to lose. Let's get going."
"Nobody goes anywhere." Someone new showed up in front of the Game Shop. In fact, a lot of people. There were at least a thousand people with items around their necks that looked like Ankhs.
"Hello." Ryou Bakura waved warmly to them. "Everyone, please bow." He bowed his head toward them. "This is Set's personal team that oversees everything. They are not the same as my men."
"Nothing like yours," one of them said for sure. They each started to leave except for the one that just spoke. He brought out a simple notepad. "Head counts for Pharaoh."
"Head counting?" Ryou Bakura shifted. "It hasn't even been twenty four hours yet. I haven't had a chance to go over anything with anyone yet." He shrugged. "You said I was forbidden over going over anything with anyone." His voice started to bite back, like the Bandit Kings. "I'm a reasonable fellow. A few hours."
"You can go over it now, you have permission," he said. "Meanwhile, we are starting."
Yuugi heard the sounds of screams and panicking.
"Don't move," The Bandit King warned everyone. "Information from a goddess is needed for this household." He gestured to Jounouchi. "You see? He has a hieroglyphic on him. You don't want to make the ancient gods mad, do you? His future wife and child are with them. It's part of a god's game."
"Proof," the Anck wielder demanded.
"I have a mirror to see her." Jounouchi held it toward him. He came over to look a little closer then backed away.
"Okay, that's proof," the ankh wielder agreed. He gestured to Mokuba. "Who is he?"
"My new assistant," Ryou Bakura assured him. "He needs a scarab."
"Oh." He nodded and wrote something down on paper. "You're allowed one assistant, so I won't kill him." He reached into a saddle bag he was carrying and held a scarab out to Mokuba. "Here."
Yuugi heard the power just kick back on behind them. ///Yuugi: Kill?/// Yuugi heard more screams again. ///Yuugi: You were right, Set's still trying to kill off more.///
///Atem: Yes. We must be careful. Follow Bakura's every lead, Yuugi. There's no telling what he needed to say that he wasn't allowed to./// Atem shifted slightly, his eyes now above the buildings as well as on the ankh carrying man. ///Atem: I can't believe that I can do nothing! People are in trouble and no one can help them.///
"Women." The ankh carrier gestured to Anzu and Satiah, still talking to the Bandit King. "Age?"
"Twenty five or so."
"Names?"
"Anzu Mazaki and Satiah."
"Status?"
"Boyfriends," The Bandit King said. "Yuugi Mutoh, ruler of the household belongs with Anzu Mazaki. Satiah is mine." He was chewing against his lip.
"Those two?" He gestured to Kaiba and Shizuka.
"Seto Kaiba and Shizuka Kawai," Kaiba answered, "but we were just visiting." He held up a key. "We have our own place, far away from here."
"Grocery Island of Last Chance," Bandit King said. "I have my own place too," he added, "and, Mokuba Kaiba will be living there with me."
///Atem: So many per household. I see.///
"Living there with you?" Still, Kaiba was playing it risky. "Why?"
"Only so many in so much space." The ankh wielder stared at the game shop. "It looks like a living area on top of a game shop. Not just a house."
"The bottom area is used just as much," Bandit King reasoned. "Games just take a level."
"To get up the stairs. One level home," the ankh wielder said. "It's one level."
"It's bigger than it looks, it has room for four people and there's a basement area too." Bandit King was trying.
"You can't fool me. Look at it, it's small. One couple per level," the Ankh wielder said. "Katsuya Jounouchi lives there but his future wife is carrying. They aren't optional to kill."
"None of them are optional to kill." Bandit King answered back. "They are all involved with gods."
"Proof?"
"There is a box with their names on it as players inside the shop," he assured him. He went into the shop and looked ahead. The box was gone. "There was a box. The gods collected it."
The ankh wielder came back out. "No proof."
"Just ask the gods!" Bandit King demanded.
The man just acted like he was a nuisance. "Jounouchi has an excuse with gods and a future wife with child. He wins." He raised his hand.
"These hieroglyphics on our foreheads are not for nothing," Satiah yelled. "Anzu."
"They aren't optional either," Kaiba said casually. "They're gods."
///Atem: What?! What the heck is Kaiba trying to pull?///
"What?" The Bandit King seemed confused too.
"Proof?" The ankh wielder wanted the usual.
"I saw it in Mai's vision. She couldn't see it. Normally, dreams can't register everything. She saw the happy smiles. She saw Jounouchi with the baby. She saw the tragic outside." Kaiba gestured to Anzu and Satiah. "She didn't see how they seemed to be a little more hyped with a golden aura around them."
"A golden . . .?"
Anzu and Satiah both had moved toward the ankh wielder, not of their free will. They were being dragged to him. The hieroglyphs on their head glowed.
"Let them go!" Yuugi, Atem and Jounouchi shouted.
"He saw a dream, how accurate are those? A constantly changing dream!" The Bandit King complained.
"Dream or not, too dangerous," the ankh wielder said. "They are coming with me."
"Consult the gods," Bandit King said darkly. Very darkly. "If you kill anyone that is involved in a god's game, you'll be in eternal pain and suffering in your afterlife for making the god's upset. For ruining their game."
"You are hiding something." Set's voice was heard before he appeared before them. "Just can't wait for the game to start, can you? Miss your ability to summon gods, part of Atem?"
Atem gripped his fist. "I am hiding nothing, and yes," he said roughly. "I can't wait for it to start."
The skies became grey and dark. Lightning started to strike. While most everyone was looking toward the sky, Anzu and Satiah looked petrified. The Winged Dragon of Ra appeared next to Obelisk, the War God and the Sky Dragon of Osiris. They all fused together to become Horakhty.
