Duel Magic

The Final Journey

"Right." He replied as he took it.

"Alright boys, let's take him up!" said Lilly as the boys started to take Ryou up the stairs with Lilly holding onto his legs to make it easier.

"What happened?" asked Marik as they got to the top.

"Help us first, then talk!" yelled Joey in annoyance.

"Right!" said Marik as he ran to help them.

"Did you regain your memories, my Pharaoh?" asked Ishizu.

"Yes." Atem replied.

"Then after 5,000 years, our family's duty has been fulfilled," said Marik to his sister as he turned to look at her.

"You're right." She told her brother as she then addressed Atem. "And the seven Millennium items are gathered together at last, my King."

"I know," said Atem as he looked at Ishizu. "Now I mist seal them away forever so that I can go to the spirit world,"

"You're leaving us?" asked Tea in sadness.

"Of course he is leaving us," Lilly said to Tea, annoyed by her stupidity. "He belongs with his friends and family, not with us."

"Pharaoh, if you would like us too, Marik and I can take you and your friends to the final resting place of the Millennium items," said Ishizu after she and her brother shared a look.

"You mean the Millennium Stone?" asked Atem in shock as Ishizu nodded to him.

"The inscription above this ancient stone reads as the fallowing: 'To the spirit world, though may proceed, but first, though must complete this deed. Return the items, once they came and speak aloud the Pharaoh's name.' Are you ready for your final task?"

"Yes."

"Then allow me to be your guide to the shrine of the next world."

"Well then, let's all get into the cars!" said Lilly as she walked to one of the cars, only to have someone grab her and pull her toward another car.

"Yugi has to go in another car." Stated Seto as he pulled his sister with him.

"Who else saw that coming?" asked Joey as they all sweat dropped.

"Couldn't we zip over to this shrine in a plane?" asked Joey in annoyance as they stopped at a dock.

"I'm afraid this sanctuary can only be reached by boat." Stated Ishizu.

"We don't want to rush this," started Tristan. "This is the last trip we will ever take with the Pharaoh, dude."

"Since when are you so sappy?" asked Joey as Tristan moved his head toward Tea, causing Joey to look. Tea had a look on her face which was a mix between anger, probably of the fact the Pharaoh was go to his family, and sadness because she wouldn't see him anymore.

"I hope Lilly is okay with this," said Joey as he and Tristan turned to look at her, angering Tea as they seemed more concerned with Lily then her.

"Ages ago, it was believed that boats were the only vessels able to transport spirits to the world beyond," informed Ishizu.

"The world beyond?" asked Tea.
