Early the next morning when we woke up Seraphina got breakfast and had already changed into her running clothes with me.right behind her as she stepped out the door.
The run felt great but I needed to ask Seraphina about the dream and if it was real and if it really happened to her. I stopped and she stopped and she looked at me puzzled. I told her that I needed to ask her about the letter. She turned around slowly and told me that she would write the whole thing out when we got back to my room and nodded and headed off towards the place that was my secret and that no one else knew about. Then she peeled off her sweat riddled shirt and slowly extended her wings to their full length. They were huge. I looked at the design on her wings. The feathers were a deep dark blue color with gold images in them but those individual feathers made up a picture of my scale and of some sort of puzzle that seemed strangely familiar but I couldn’t quite place it. When we were done she slowly slid her wings into place and I gently pressed a towel onto her back so she could stop bleeding sooner. The blood wasn’t that much and I wondered why. She told me that it was from sliding her wings in and out all the time that the blood had eventually stopped and she had made the pathway so big that she didn’t bleed anymore. We ran home and we were both giggling like little girls because she had cracked a joke on how grandma would say to look at a camera. When we got up to my room I gave her a piece of paper and told her to write all that she had said in the letter she looked at me and told me that I might not forgive her if she did but I wasn’t listening I wanted to know what she had wrote in the letter and why was it so important that she had to die to give it to him or who ever that him was. She started to write it said:
Dear Yami,
In the last letter I sent you, I told you about how I feel about you. I hope that somehow we will live through this together. I should have told you this before now but I can’t change the past though sometimes I wish I could. But even if it might be late, at least it wasn’t never. I don’t know if I will be alive when you read this but if in the case I am not, burn this. You already know I have Seraphim wings. They are a deep blue with gold images in which 2 of the millenium items are intertwining. They are our items both the puzzle and the scale I’m sorry but I don’t know what it means yet but if I can decipher the meaning if I am still around than I will I am sorry to add to your burdens along with the one of ruling Egypt I am sorry if I am not here to bear this burden with you but I will always be there with you. I love you with all my heart and would give anything to be with you forever even if it means no rest for me because I will kill. I will give myself up to you if that was my only option left. Good bye for now love of my life.
Seraphina Guardian/ Keeper of the Millennium Scale
I just blinked at her and said there are more of these things as I pointed to the scale and you died with it in your hands. What! She just looked at the letter with a heart broken expression and I knew that she truly loved him or whomever this Yami guy was. Can you draw me this Yami guy’s picture? She nodded and told me that I was not allowed to tell anyone of her existence until she found out what happened to Yami and where he was. I nodded, eager to even care that I wanted to see this guy. She drew him. Oh gods, he was a drop dead handsome guy but he looked so much like this other kid I knew from school his name was Yugi.
“Hey there is this guy who goes to my school. He even lives here in the neighborhood where his grandpa owns a dueling monsters shop. He looks almost exactly like Yami except younger and more innocent. Like it is with me and you. You look older and more in control whereas I look young and innocent.”
She nodded and looked at the picture she had drawn. She looked so sad and defeated. “What was your past like?”
“It was good but it seems that you have it a lot better here and now then back then.” She put her hands to her head slowly and clutched to it she grabbed at her hair as if she was in pain.
“What is wrong, are you okay?”
"I cannot remember all of the things that happened back then. It hurts to try and think about it.”
I looked at her and said that,
"We are going to get to the bottom of your past and not rest until we do.”
I looked down at the picture of Yami that I had drawn. He looked so regal and life-like that I couldn't bear to tear my eyes away from it in fear that if I did look away the drawing would disappear. “My handsome Yami, I whispered, where are you? Why did I have to die before I got to you? Maybe I could have gotten to the exit before the ceiling collapsed and you would have scoped me up into your arms like you always do when we just escape something horrifying. I miss him so much that now I fear that if I feel anything else my heart will break. Whatever happened to you I wish I had been there with you but I died before we could ever do anything else besides battle without duel monsters cards you would always tell me to choose out cards that were more like me and I did but the cards weren’t responding like they did to you and I never got to have an answer to that question. But I know that deep down that I will find you and I will ask you that question and have my answer. Love always finds a way nothing can stop love, trust or faith if you have the heart to believe it.”
I looked around and saw Seraphina watching me with a curious expression on her face and I told her that I was going to find a way to find this Yugi Muto and that if he is truly who she says he is then I will be able to find Yami. She nodded and told me that if I was in the scale once than maybe I could do it again during the school day and she could show the scale off during class because they were learning about the ancient egyptian culture and I almost freaked and I told her that it was a very dangerous choice but it might work it might even draw this Yugi guy and maybe we could ask him a few questions about if he has ever heard about the great Pharaoh Yami and how he was a great leader in ancient Egypt. I nodded and knew that it was very very risky to show off the millennium scale but if it drew Yami out and to me then I was willing to do anything.
